Which is an incredibly specific, difficult performance to follow.
speaker_0HOST
Yeah.
speaker_0HOST
So they have to reverse engineer her.
speaker_1HOST
Yes.

Right.
DorindaHOST
Um, but then she realizes it's Beetee and Wiress with her.

Um, and Peeta's surprised and so surprised, he's like, "I gotta hear how this happened." [laughs]
HaleyHOST
I would be, too.
DorindaHOST
Come to think of it, I don't think he showed up at training.
DorindaHOST
"Yeah, well, he wasn't much, but he was from home," she says, "and he left me here with these two." She nudges Beetee, who's barely conscious, with her toe.
DorindaHOST
"He got a knife in the back at the Cornucopia, and her," we all look at, over at Wiress, who's circling around coated in dried blood murmurming- murmuring, "Tick-tock, tick-tock." "Yeah, we know.
DorindaHOST
