Despite the fact that she knows the computer is always watching, Katniss manages to drag a smile from her younger sister. Her sister doesn't have to say much to deliver the message; Prim knows her too well to misconstrue. And it's not exactly like Katniss has ever been an avid fan of the rules either. So, there is something comforting knowing that she probably did exactly what her sister would have done....even if probably far less successfully.

That doesn't mean that the Computer won't see it differently, but they did everything the could do to keep up appearances. Squeezing Katniss' hand back Prim tells the official story. "They didn't trust us." Which is the truth. From there, though, it gets more complicated. "They were sure that all the Specials work directly for the Computer and so they didn't believe we were one of them. They didn't know us, and so they weren't going to believe us no matter what we said. They...incapacitated us." The matter-of-fact way that Prim tells the story might as well be a tell for the blond teenager, it didn't go exactly like that, but it is what she and Zee have gone with.

"There was nothing that we could do." The blonde shrugs, studying her sister's face. She only manages to let that linger for a moment before she looks down and then whispers, "That's what we wrote in the reports." Prim pushes around at her food a moment before taking a bite before looking up again.
