Best Answer

Katniss and Peeta confronted Haymitch because he wasn't mentoring them. He was just sitting and drinking. They confronted him telling him that he needed to mentor him, and that they were fighters.

This tells you that Haymitch didn't really mentor his tributes, as District 12 wasn't trained before The Hunger Games. They were too poor. But when Katniss and Peeta showed him that they were fighters and weren't willing to give up, he was willing to train them half sober.

What happens at the end of The Hunger Games?

Claudius Tempelsmith announces in the arena that two tributes will be aloud to win, if they are from they same district. Katniss finds Peeta and they Alley up until the end. When it gets down to three tributes remaining, Cato, Peeta, & Katniss, the Game makers send out mutts ,that are mutated from the dead tributes, into the arena to heat things up again. Cato, Katniss, & Peeta are chased into the cornucopia when a mutt cuts a gash in Peetas leg. Cato takes hold of Peeta and Katniss shots and arrow at Cato's hand, causing him to fall to his slow, painful death by mutts. Once Peeta and Katniss are the only ones left, Claudius Tempelsmith announces that they looked over the rule book and rules are rules. So out of an act of love/rebellion, Katniss pulls out night-lock and threaten for both of them to commit suicide. Just as the Berry's get in there mouths, Claudius Tempelsmith says "Stop! Stop! Ladies and gentlemen, i am pleased to present the victors of the 74th Hunger Games Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark! I give you-- the tributes of District Twelve!". Katniss and Peeta then spit out the night lock and are taken to the capitol. Before Peeta and Katniss are reunited on stage in front of the entire Capitol to be broadcast live to all of Panem, Haymitch tells Katniss that the Capitol isn't pleased with her and Peeta's attempt at double suicide, but as it was her idea, she'd be the one to pay the consequences. He explains to her that she must tell everyone that it was her love for Peeta that made her want to eat the berries in an effort to get the Capitol to believe that it wasn't actually an act of rebellion like they think, though Katniss is conflicted and does not know the real reason why she did it. On their way back home to District Twelve, Katniss hints to Peeta that the way she acted toward Peeta (in love) was "all for the games." Peeta becomes upset and hurt and escapes to his room on the train until they arrive home and must play the "star-crossed lovers" angle once again. Katniss misses Peeta, even in that short time, because she realizes she really does care for him but she's not sure in what way. She says she doesn't "want to lose the boy with the bread."

What is the complication on Catching Fire?

Okay, first of all, Katniss does not know if she loves Peeta or Gale. Her feelings are really mixed up and she has a hard time making choices. Also, SPOILER ALERT!!! (I may be about to spoil the book for you if you continue reading). If Katniss doesn't look like she is madly in love with Peeta--some of the people in the Capitol aren't falling for it--then President Snow threatens to kill Gale and their families. Katniss and Peeta's relationship is confusing for them because Peeta (and even Katniss, sometimes) can't tell when or whether Katniss' feelings for Peeta are real- or just an act for Snow. Catching Fire really explains that Katniss is not that good with this act. Peeta actually loves Katniss, so it bothers him that Katniss has to act. Still, Katniss finds herself falling in love with Peeta. This is made worse by the fact Peeta says to the capitol audience that Katniss is going to have a baby so if Katniss survives, the capitol is going to be wondering 'So...where's the baby then...?'

Why does Haymitch not tel katniss his plan?

He warns her that her outsmarting the Gamemakers will have dangerous consequences unless she is able to convince all of Panem that she did it purely out of love and need for Peeta, not out of rebellion. He does not warn Peeta because he knows that Peeta is innocent enough - the nightlock was not his plan - and that Peeta will charm and win over the crowd with his charisma anyway.
