He is realizing that his and Katniss’s “relationship”, is starting to get really complicated, because of her and Peeta’s “romance’. Gale is starting to understand what Katniss is really about and how she and Peeta need to appear as the most perfect couple, due to them both winning the previous Hunger Games together. Things get much more hectic due to Peeta proposing to Katniss, and showing the city of Panem that Peeta and Katniss are truly in love, and even saying that she is pregnant. Peeta says, “maybe I’d think that too if it weren’t for the baby” (CF, pg. 256). After the victors break out the arena, the capitol bombs district twelve, but Gale, still having a good heart, manages to rescue Katniss’s mom and sister. Gale says to Katniss, “She’s alive.

Without Hesitation” (MJ, pg. 31). He is really starting to show how much hates the Capitol. We can even see how Gale has started making traps together with Beetee, together they are making “weapons against the humans. Bombs mostly” (MJ, pg.185). These traps essentially lure the victims into a “safe haven”, where death is lurking around the corner, with no escape in sight (MJ, pg.186). In the end, the final assault on the Capitol, to find Snow, it ultimately ends with the bombing of innocent children by ways of remote drones. The bomb even detonates, killing Katniss’s little sister Prim (MJ, pg.347, 350). Gale did what he thought would be the best plan of action, he didn’t even know that his bombs would be used in that evil way. He always gave his all for the people he loved, but sometimes, there is no execution without a
