Peeta saved Katniss during dinner by pretending to have a heart attack to draw attention away from her after she received a tracker jacker sting. He diverted the attention of the Careers and ultimately saved her life.
Because Peeta loves Katniss
one way Peeta saved Katniss is how he miraculously covered for her when she recgonized the redheaded Avox girl, when she wasn't supposed to know. He claimed that the redheaded Avox reminded Katniss of a girl in District 12 when in reality she looks nothing like the Avox girl. Then idk wht happen. one other time was when peeta gave burned bread to katniss.
When Cato realized that Peeta only joined them just to protect Katniss, he was in the way of Cato and to get him out of the way, he stabbed him in the leg with his sword
She doesn't like it but she goes to save Peeta's life
In short Peeta wanted Katniss to save herself and to forget about Peeta if need be. He said this because he always loved her, even before exposing himself in the interviews; he didn't want anything to happen to her.
She promised to save Peeta and let him win the quarter quell.
This book is filled with so much suspense! Here are only a few examples that you can translate any way you need to... Book 1: Will Katniss win the games? will she sacrifice her life for Peeta or another tribute such as Rue? Will Peeta die of sickness? will the careers kill Katniss? How will Gale feel about Katniss, if she returns from the games with Peeta? Will Katniss be punished by the capitol for rebelling? Book 2: Will Peeta forgive Katniss for pretending to fall in love with him so they could both win the games? will Katniss actually choose to love Peeta or Gale? What happened to Peeta as he was taken by the capitol? Will Peeta kill himself to save Katniss or vice-versa? Book 3: Will Katniss ever get Peeta to love her again? What happens to Prim? What will happen with Annie and Finnick? Does Peeta remember how he loved Katniss so much and will he ever be able to love her again? What happens between Katniss and Gale? Do Katniss and Johanna ever become friends? Does Katniss really love Peeta? Not all of these examples have to do with straight up action but they all keep you guessing!
1 time. He gave her bread when she was starving
he will risk his life to save hers. And that he will protect her in anyway he can.
Peeta is captured by the Capitol after Katniss was rescued by the rebellion from the Arena. The Capitol applies Tracker Jacker Venom to Peeta and it makes him want to hate Katniss. Although, A group of soldiers from the Rebellion sneaks into the Capitol to save him but he hates Katniss and it takes him awhile to recover from the venom. In the end Katniss and Peeta go back to District 12, which is mostly rubble, they have 2 children, one boy and one girl.
Katniss doesn't actually get to save Peeta from the Capitol herself. A small team (including Gale) is sent to rescue Peeta. Katniss is completely against this and wishes to be in on the rescue, but it wouldn't be safe for her- District 13 needs her. ANYWAY, haha, this all occurs in book 3, Mockingjay on page 166 (in my book) Chapter 12.
Katniss and Peeta believe that both of them can win The Hunger Games. However, when just the two of them are left, The Gamemakers annouce that only one person can live. Katniss pulls out 'nightlock,' which are berries that will kill you before they reach your stomach. The capitol thinks she is defying them and this is an act of rebellion, but The Gamemakers let both Peeta and Katniss live. Peeta and Katniss win The Hunger Games as a team. Katniss then finds out that Peeta really does love her, but she tells him that she was only pretending to be in love with him in order to save them.
