Why Gale is in trouble?

Katniss immediately tells Gale about President Snow's threat on his life. Gail is not part of Snow's plan for Katniss. After some hesitation, she also tells him why the proposal was a necessary illusion. Katniss asks Gale if he will consider running away with her. He is overjoyed even though he acknowledges how hard it will be to flee with his younger siblings. No matter what, though, he loves her.
