Television Records of the 22nd Hunger Games: Interviews of Tributes' Families. Copyright of the Capitol of Panem.
Caesar: Welcome to the interviews! I’m your host, Caesar Flickerman, and right now we’ll be interviewing the survivors of the Games so far!
Audience: *claps and cheers*
Caesar: First up, we have the parents of Juno Faberio, female tribute of District 2!
Audience: *claps*
*a hulking man of muscle and a large woman approach the stage*
Caesar: Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Faberio! What do you think of your child’s performance, so far?
Mr. Jason Faberio: She’s doing OK, I guess…
Mrs. Zena Faberio: OK?! She’s the last Career left!
Caesar: You’ve got a point, miss! Two were killed within the first two days, one betrayed, and the rest got flooded to death!
Audience: *laughs*
Caesar: So, what would you say is your child’s greatest strength?
Mr. Faberio: She’s exceptional at throwing spears! By God, she could send a spear into you, Caesar, from the arena!
Caesar: *astonished face* I’m being murdered?!
Audience: *laughter*
*buzzer rings*
Caesar: Ah, well, that’s the end! I wish luck to your daughter, Juno Faberio!
Audience: *applause and cheers*
Caesar: Time to move on! The parents and brother of Amber Broeing, please come to the stage!
*family approaches the stage*
Caesar: Hello, Broeing family! How’s your day?
Mr. Jonathan Broeing: …I’ll just say worried…
Nathan Broeing: Shocking.
Caesar: Literally!
Audience: *laughs*
Mrs. Sarah Broeing: We’re just worried about her survival.
Caesar: You mean the flood?
Nathan: *nods* She barely survived it.
Mr. Broeing: Thank god, she’s one of the last seven.
Caesar: *laughs* I do! She’s good at surviving starvation, right?
Mrs. Broeing: Yes.
Caesar: Also, once she gets a bow and arrows, her odds are just about ten to one!
Nathan: Yes, once her leg heals.
Caesar: Believe me; she’ll have so many sponsors that the arena will be flooded with her gifts!
Audience: *laughs*
*buzzer sounds*
Caesar: I’m sorry, Broeing family. Our time is up. I hope that the odds lie in yours and Amber Broeing’s favor!
Audience: *gives a standing ovation*
Caesar: Next, we have the mother and sister of Sedone Terought!
*a woman and girl with fairly square shoulders approach the stage*
Caesar: Hello, Mrs. Terought! How are you?
Mrs. Annette Terought: I’m fine, thank you.
Caesar: *looks at girl with kindness*
What is your name, honey?
Joyce Terought: My name is Joyce, Mr. Flickerman.
Audience: “Aww!”
Caesar: Joyce, you are a real sweetheart, aren’t you?
Joyce Terought: *nods*
Audience: *chuckles*
Caesar: Where is your daddy?
Joyce: *frowns* His ship sank.
Audience: *cries with horror*
Caesar: I’m very sorry, Joyce. Do you have any wishes for your brother?
Joyce: *grins* I want him to win!
Audience: *laughs*
Caesar: Well, I think he will!
*buzzer sounds*
Caesar: Sorry, Joyce, it’s time for you and your mommy to go. May your brother, Sedone Terought, win!
Audience: *applause*
Caesar: Next, we have the father of Ediro Agane!
Audience: *applause*
*man walks onto stage*
Caesar: Hello, Mr. Agane! May I ask where your wife is?
Mr. Geoffrey Agane: She’s at work, so I’m afraid that she can’t come.
Caesar: Oh. Sorry, sir.
Mr. Agane: It’s fine.
Caesar: *clears throat* Do you think Ediro is doing well?
Mr. Agane: Well, I am happy that he survived that horrible flood. I was busy when the flood occurred, so do you remember how he survived?
Caesar: He got a head start on it, and climbed a tree. He got himself a few bruises from doing that.
Mr. Agane: I, myself, believe that he was lucky that he didn’t climb it and the branch broke, like the girls. Ediro is quite heavy, about one hundred and fifty, I think.
Caesar: I’m heavier than him?! *worried face* I must check my weight again, and start losing weight!
Audience: *laughs*
Caesar: Do you have any wishes for Ediro?
Mr. Agane: My only wish is for to survive these Games and come home safely.
*buzzer sounds*
Caesar: I’m afraid out time is up, Mr. Agane. I do hope the Gamemakers can grant your wish. Have a nice day, and may the odds be in your favor!
Audience: *applause and cheers for Ediro*
