Theory: Foxface actually committed suicideOh, this one is so dang good! Redditor circlemanfan proposes an incredibly plausible idea that Foxface's death was actually a suicide. Here's some of the points he makes:It's stated in Catching Fire that in the training station for edible plants, only the plants that are going to be featured in the games are described. Foxface is described and shown as incredibly intelligent. Wouldn't someone this smart know to memorize all of the poisonous plants listed? She knew that her strategy was to not attack, so wouldn't she put priority during training to master survival skills.And then comes the reason why it appeared as an honest mistake. Foxface knew what would happen if she blatantly committed suicide, it would look like defiance to the Capitol and her family would be killed. She decided to end it this way to make sure no one would think she was trying to outsmart anybody.This makes me sad for some reason. Just the whole damn concept of the Hunger Games is depressing as hell. But it does make sense that someone as clever as Foxface would choose a more peaceful, death on her own terms, rather than face a more brutal ending to her life. Perhaps she realized at some point she didn't have a chance. Ugh. If I was chosen to be in the Hunger Games, I can only hope that I'd have a sister like Katniss to take my place, because I would probably poop my pants the minute I was released into the game. Heck, I'd poop my pants just going to the Reaping.
