They resumed their search of their surroundings, Peeta accidentally walked into the force field and was flung back and knocked-out by it, stopping his heart. He asked about the Cornucopia, and Katniss relayed that six had died and the battle was still going on. Katniss climbed a tree to see if she could find a lake, Finnick holding his trident in defense since he worried Katniss might kill him. The four of them ran and searched for quite some time but could not find water. From that point on, Finnick, Mags, Katniss, and Peeta formed an alliance. Katniss was suspicious of what motivated him to retrieve Peeta from his platform and offered to do it herself, but Finnick alluded to her false pregnancy and carried Peeta, who couldn't swim, to shore. Still not fully trusting him, Katniss remained extremely wary of his every move. He startled Katniss with his proposal for an alliance, and although she was initially unsure, she accepted his offer after noticing his golden bracelet - identical to the one Haymitch Abernathy had worn earlier - knowing that it's Haymitch's nonverbal way of telling her to form an alliance with Finnick. He killed the District 5 male after the other tribute tried to attack Katniss with a spear. At the beginning of the third Quarter Quell, Finnick was the second to arrive at the Cornucopia after Katniss, gaining a trident and a net, along with earning the first kill of the Games. His pedestal was to the left of the District 9 female. In the film, his interview outfit consisted of a white shirt with a deep "V" neckline that stretched almost to his navel, and a black sash with matching pants, giving him a somewhat "pirate-like" look. He, along with every other victor, joined hands at the end of the interviews as a sign of solidarity-and rebellion. During the remainder of the public training days, he gave Katniss an hour of trident lessons in return for one hour of archery lessons.ĭuring his interview with Caesar Flickerman, Finnick recited a poem to his one true love (Annie Cresta), making at least a hundred citizens in the audience faint because they believed the poem was about them. Like the other tributes, Finnick saw Katniss shooting down all the fake birds on the first day and was impressed. Later that day, Finnick introduced Katniss to Mags, whom Katniss immediately liked and befriended. Being from District 4 (the fishing district), Finnick was particularly capable with knots, and even the most complicated ones don't seem to faze him at all. ĭuring training, Finnick noticed Katniss over at the knot-tying station and helped her to finish the complicated knot she'd been having trouble working on. For the parade, his stylist draped him in golden fish net that was tied at his crotch, so he wouldn't technically be naked. He met Katniss Everdeen just before the tribute parade and flirted with her, informing her that his lovers in the Capitol pay him not with money, but with secrets. Both Finnick and Mags participated in the Third Quarter Quell, and became part of an alliance with Katniss, Wiress, Beetee, Peeta Mellark and Johanna Mason.įinnick, along with Mags (who volunteered in Annie's place), were the tributes for District 4 in the Third Quarter Quell. Despite these many lovers, Finnick never cared for them and had one true love Annie Cresta, a District 4 girl he mentored during the 70th Hunger Games which she later won and became victor.įor nine years following his victory, Finnick mentored the successive District 4 tributes. However, instead of money, Finnick instead asked his "lovers" for secrets, many of which were about Snow himself some of which Finnick divulges during the Second Rebellion on live television to rally the rebels. The general public was not aware of this arrangement, simply believing that Finnick took many romantic partners during his visits to the Capitol. Īfter his victory, Finnick was forced into prostitution by President Snow, and his loved ones threatened with death if he didn't comply. As a Career Tribute, Finnick was well prepared for the arena displaying accomplished fighting skills with the spears and knives he initially gathered from the Cornucopia, Finnick received many gifts during the Games, including a trident - which Katniss thought might have been the most expensive item she had ever seen given to a tribute - which he used in combination with a net woven from vines found in the arena to ensure his victory, snaring and immobilizing his opponents before spearing them. Katniss Everdeen attributed Finnick's success to a combination of his extraordinary physical skill and his widespread popularity among Capitol citizens, the latter due in part to good looks. During the 65th Hunger Games, Finnick was mentored by a previous District 4 victor, Mags Flanagan (winner of the 11th Hunger Games), and won the Games at age 14, making him the youngest victor in the history of the Games.
