* The final battle: The final few tributes left alive are Cato, Thresh, and Katniss. Cato, driven by the Gamemakers' manipulation, attacks Thresh.
* Thresh's revenge: Thresh, in a moment of fierce loyalty to Rue (whom Katniss had befriended), turns on Cato.
* Cato's defeat: Thresh overpowers and kills Cato, leaving Katniss and Thresh as the final two tributes.
