WEBVTT

00:00:13.458 --> 00:00:16.041 align:center
What's happening? Is someone attacking us?

00:00:16.125 --> 00:00:19.166 align:center
It's Aang! He's in the Avatar State!

00:00:40.125 --> 00:00:41.333 align:center
Are you okay?

00:00:42.208 --> 00:00:43.875 align:center
Why didn't you stop them?

00:00:43.958 --> 00:00:46.083 align:center
- No, I tried!
- You let them take Appa!

00:00:46.166 --> 00:00:48.541 align:center
Aang, stop it! We barely got out of there.

00:00:48.625 --> 00:00:50.458 align:center
- Toph did what she could.
- It wasn't enough.

00:00:50.541 --> 00:00:52.041 align:center
- She saved us.
- I don't care.

00:00:52.125 --> 00:00:53.833 align:center
The Earth King can help once we tell him.

00:00:53.916 --> 00:00:55.458 align:center
There's only one plan now.

00:00:55.541 --> 00:00:58.583 align:center
Find Appa.
I don't care about anything else.

00:00:58.666 --> 00:01:01.041 align:center
We will find him.
But it's like Sokka said.

00:01:01.125 --> 00:01:03.708 align:center
Our best chance of finding him
is going to the king.

00:01:05.416 --> 00:01:07.000 align:center
I'm going to find Appa.

00:01:08.083 --> 00:01:10.250 align:center
Don't wait for me.

00:01:10.333 --> 00:01:11.291 align:center
Aang!

00:01:15.833 --> 00:01:17.333 align:center
Jet couldn't make it out.

00:01:18.500 --> 00:01:20.666 align:center
It was because of him that we got away.

00:01:21.250 --> 00:01:23.458 align:center
Aang's right.
I should've held it open longer.

00:01:23.541 --> 00:01:24.958 align:center
You did everything you could.

00:02:24.750 --> 00:02:25.958 align:center
Appa!

00:02:43.833 --> 00:02:46.208 align:center
<i>A fever is the fire of change.</i>

00:02:46.791 --> 00:02:48.041 align:center
<i>If you survive it,</i>

00:02:48.125 --> 00:02:51.708 align:center
<i>it burns away your old self</i>
<i>and gives you new life.</i>

00:03:27.750 --> 00:03:29.291 align:center
Blue Spirit.

00:03:29.958 --> 00:03:31.000 align:center
Huh.

00:04:36.416 --> 00:04:38.750 align:center
- <i>Help! Mama!</i>
- <i>Zuko, wake up.</i>

00:04:38.833 --> 00:04:40.333 align:center
<i>We need to go.</i>

00:04:40.416 --> 00:04:42.041 align:center
<i>I love you so much.</i>

00:04:42.125 --> 00:04:43.333 align:center
No. No.

00:04:43.916 --> 00:04:44.958 align:center
<i>Wake up.</i>

00:04:45.041 --> 00:04:47.375 align:center
- <i>Mama! Where's Dad?</i>
- Wait. No.

00:04:47.458 --> 00:04:48.458 align:center
<i>Wake up.</i>

00:04:48.541 --> 00:04:51.541 align:center
<i>- I won't let you turn them into monsters.</i>
- Stop! Stop! Stop!

00:04:51.625 --> 00:04:54.333 align:center
I… I want it to stop! Make it stop!

00:04:54.833 --> 00:04:57.958 align:center
Is that what you think I am? A monster?

00:04:59.250 --> 00:05:02.541 align:center
Where's Dad? Where's Dad? Where's Dad?

00:05:02.625 --> 00:05:06.500 align:center
Promise me that no matter what happens,
you stay together. Remember who you are.

00:05:06.583 --> 00:05:08.875 align:center
Not again. Get us out of here! Move!

00:05:09.750 --> 00:05:11.416 align:center
<i>I love you so much.</i>

00:05:11.500 --> 00:05:14.083 align:center
Mom!

00:05:16.833 --> 00:05:18.291 align:center
She's gone, Zuko.

00:05:18.375 --> 00:05:19.666 align:center
She doesn't matter.

00:05:19.750 --> 00:05:21.041 align:center
She never mattered.

00:05:21.125 --> 00:05:23.791 align:center
You don't matter.

00:05:43.416 --> 00:05:45.666 align:center
<i>He is a very sensitive being.</i>

00:05:46.708 --> 00:05:48.750 align:center
<i>He flinches from conflict.</i>

00:05:49.958 --> 00:05:53.458 align:center
<i>You need to give him another</i>
<i>chance. You need to nurture his instincts.</i>

00:05:53.541 --> 00:05:55.625 align:center
<i>Zuko lacks strength.</i>

00:05:56.125 --> 00:05:59.916 align:center
<i>He wants to help people.</i>
<i>He wants peace and justice.</i>

00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:02.875 align:center
<i>There is a greater destiny</i>
<i>in store for both our children</i>

00:06:02.958 --> 00:06:04.458 align:center
<i>than you can imagine.</i>

00:06:04.541 --> 00:06:06.958 align:center
<i>They called their protector</i>
<i>the Blue Spirit.</i>

00:06:07.041 --> 00:06:10.291 align:center
<i>If our son refuses</i>
<i>to put his younger sister in her place,</i>

00:06:10.375 --> 00:06:12.250 align:center
<i>then she will take his place.</i>

00:06:12.333 --> 00:06:14.541 align:center
<i>Zuzu, there are no winners or losers.</i>

00:06:14.625 --> 00:06:18.291 align:center
<i>A fight, once begun,</i>
<i>only ends when one wins…</i>

00:06:18.375 --> 00:06:20.208 align:center
<i>Only those who practice courage…</i>

00:06:21.416 --> 00:06:23.000 align:center
<i>He can be shaped.</i>

00:06:23.083 --> 00:06:24.291 align:center
<i>He can be corrected.</i>

00:06:24.375 --> 00:06:26.125 align:center
<i>- If our son refuses to put…</i>
- Stop!

00:06:27.750 --> 00:06:29.875 align:center
<i>…then she will take his place.</i>

00:06:35.083 --> 00:06:37.250 align:center
- <i>A monster!</i>
- <i>Where's Dad?</i>

00:06:37.333 --> 00:06:39.875 align:center
<i>Compassion is a sign of weakness.</i>

00:07:06.125 --> 00:07:07.625 align:center
I'm sorry.

00:07:35.458 --> 00:07:38.000 align:center
I gotta admit,
the plan isn't planning like usual.

00:07:38.500 --> 00:07:41.416 align:center
Yeah, well, Appa was a big part of it.

00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:45.166 align:center
I know.
He's an important member of the team.

00:07:47.041 --> 00:07:48.333 align:center
He really carries us.

00:07:53.250 --> 00:07:56.541 align:center
Aang's been out all night.
Should we go look for him?

00:07:56.625 --> 00:07:58.375 align:center
- Found him!
- No.

00:08:00.291 --> 00:08:01.333 align:center
I haven't.

00:08:02.541 --> 00:08:03.375 align:center
Hey.

00:08:05.666 --> 00:08:06.583 align:center
Are you okay?

00:08:06.666 --> 00:08:07.750 align:center
No.

00:08:10.541 --> 00:08:12.625 align:center
Let's just figure out
how to see the Earth King.

00:08:13.583 --> 00:08:16.833 align:center
Sokka was right.
That's the fastest way to find Appa.

00:08:17.666 --> 00:08:19.583 align:center
Look, Aang. About what happened--

00:08:19.666 --> 00:08:21.625 align:center
I don't wanna talk about it.

00:08:23.833 --> 00:08:26.333 align:center
Okay. Then let's talk about the plan.

00:08:28.166 --> 00:08:30.208 align:center
Right.

00:08:30.708 --> 00:08:34.416 align:center
The plan. We just need to figure out
how to get through the palace guards,

00:08:34.500 --> 00:08:37.583 align:center
the Dai Li,
and the countless impenetrable walls.

00:08:37.666 --> 00:08:40.333 align:center
Okay, so we're walking straight
into a prison.

00:08:40.416 --> 00:08:41.375 align:center
What? No.

00:08:43.541 --> 00:08:44.833 align:center
What maniac would do that?

00:08:46.708 --> 00:08:50.458 align:center
What do you believe you can gain
from walking into this prison?

00:08:52.041 --> 00:08:54.041 align:center
You're the one who stands to gain.

00:08:54.875 --> 00:08:56.791 align:center
I don't stand to gain anything.

00:08:57.500 --> 00:08:59.875 align:center
I'm just a humble servant to the Crown.

00:08:59.958 --> 00:09:03.250 align:center
I'll indulge your charade
if it makes you more comfortable.

00:09:03.750 --> 00:09:06.000 align:center
I'm looking for a fugitive
from the Fire Nation.

00:09:06.625 --> 00:09:07.750 align:center
In exchange for your…

00:09:09.208 --> 00:09:10.208 align:center
Sorry.

00:09:10.833 --> 00:09:13.083 align:center
…the Earth King's assistance,

00:09:13.166 --> 00:09:16.416 align:center
I'll provide you the names of the generals
who are conspiring to discredit you.

00:09:16.500 --> 00:09:17.333 align:center
Me?

00:09:17.833 --> 00:09:19.416 align:center
- The cultural minister?
- Yes.

00:09:19.500 --> 00:09:22.708 align:center
Somehow they got the idea
that you're a sort of shadow ruler

00:09:22.791 --> 00:09:24.208 align:center
who commands a network of spies

00:09:24.291 --> 00:09:26.791 align:center
to maintain a chokehold
over this whole city.

00:09:28.416 --> 00:09:31.333 align:center
And you have the names
of these conspirators?

00:09:31.416 --> 00:09:33.000 align:center
General Sung, General Situ,

00:09:33.083 --> 00:09:35.791 align:center
Lieutenants Khettry, Kim, and Zhang.

00:09:37.291 --> 00:09:38.250 align:center
Very well.

00:09:38.333 --> 00:09:42.416 align:center
I will look into your accusations
and let you know what I decide.

00:09:43.625 --> 00:09:44.791 align:center
When?

00:09:44.875 --> 00:09:47.833 align:center
It could take a few days or a few weeks.

00:09:47.916 --> 00:09:49.166 align:center
You'll be dead by then.

00:09:52.166 --> 00:09:54.666 align:center
You walk into this prison to negotiate,

00:09:54.750 --> 00:09:58.791 align:center
immediately give up your only leverage,

00:09:59.500 --> 00:10:02.083 align:center
and then hurl empty threats at me.

00:10:02.583 --> 00:10:05.708 align:center
Is this what passes for military prowess
in the Fire Nation?

00:10:06.500 --> 00:10:10.375 align:center
A few miles from here,
there are 20,000 Firebenders

00:10:10.458 --> 00:10:14.916 align:center
who have been ordered to level the wall
and burn your city to the ground

00:10:16.166 --> 00:10:18.375 align:center
unless I tell them to stand down.

00:10:19.916 --> 00:10:22.125 align:center
That's what we call military prowess.

00:10:22.208 --> 00:10:24.375 align:center
Even if that were true,

00:10:25.125 --> 00:10:27.333 align:center
our army will handle it

00:10:28.083 --> 00:10:29.625 align:center
like it always has.

00:10:29.708 --> 00:10:32.083 align:center
The army whose leaders
I just named as traitors?

00:10:38.166 --> 00:10:40.208 align:center
You don't really know
who you're dealing with.

00:10:40.291 --> 00:10:44.083 align:center
I would never put
the security of this city at risk.

00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:46.875 align:center
I know exactly who you are.

00:10:48.041 --> 00:10:50.833 align:center
I can see your whole history in your eyes.

00:10:50.916 --> 00:10:52.708 align:center
You come from nothing,

00:10:52.791 --> 00:10:55.833 align:center
so you've had to claw and connive
your way to power.

00:10:55.916 --> 00:10:57.583 align:center
But true power,

00:10:58.416 --> 00:11:01.166 align:center
the divine right to rule,
is something you're born with.

00:11:05.375 --> 00:11:07.250 align:center
And were you born with it?

00:11:08.875 --> 00:11:11.416 align:center
Or were you born second best?

00:11:11.500 --> 00:11:14.833 align:center
You see, I know who you are too.

00:11:15.333 --> 00:11:17.125 align:center
A privileged girl,

00:11:17.958 --> 00:11:21.000 align:center
desperate to show that she deserves

00:11:22.541 --> 00:11:23.625 align:center
anything.

00:11:25.208 --> 00:11:27.916 align:center
Even in this cell, I have more power
than you could scrape together

00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:29.541 align:center
in a thousand lifetimes

00:11:29.625 --> 00:11:33.125 align:center
because yours is
dependent on lies and weakness

00:11:33.208 --> 00:11:35.208 align:center
and the whims of an absent monarch.

00:11:35.291 --> 00:11:38.041 align:center
You forget, I control the Avatar.

00:11:38.958 --> 00:11:42.833 align:center
And he will wipe out your army
like he wiped out the armada in the North.

00:11:44.083 --> 00:11:46.875 align:center
The Avatar is a child
who can't control his power.

00:11:46.958 --> 00:11:49.375 align:center
In defending the North,
he destroyed the North.

00:11:49.458 --> 00:11:52.375 align:center
He'll do the same
to your glittering metropolis.

00:11:54.958 --> 00:11:57.291 align:center
The last thing you want
is for this to come to war.

00:11:59.083 --> 00:12:02.291 align:center
I'm offering you a chance
to expose your enemies as traitors

00:12:02.375 --> 00:12:04.208 align:center
and save this city.

00:12:05.333 --> 00:12:07.041 align:center
Help me find the fugitive,

00:12:07.541 --> 00:12:08.833 align:center
give me the Avatar,

00:12:08.916 --> 00:12:12.583 align:center
and I will ensure
that you are recognized and rewarded

00:12:12.666 --> 00:12:15.750 align:center
as the man who saved Ba Sing Se.

00:12:19.291 --> 00:12:22.083 align:center
I do not make deals with the Fire Nation.

00:12:26.458 --> 00:12:29.333 align:center
Everyone deals with the Fire Nation
one way or another.

00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:49.333 align:center
You're up.

00:12:51.333 --> 00:12:52.250 align:center
Yeah.

00:12:54.458 --> 00:12:55.916 align:center
Thank you for taking care of me.

00:13:01.083 --> 00:13:02.083 align:center
You've done the same.

00:13:03.541 --> 00:13:05.416 align:center
I also went by work.

00:13:05.500 --> 00:13:07.708 align:center
I missed… three shifts,

00:13:07.791 --> 00:13:10.041 align:center
so… I got fired.

00:13:13.708 --> 00:13:17.166 align:center
Could you still get me a job
at the tea shop?

00:13:21.458 --> 00:13:22.583 align:center
I believe I can.

00:13:26.708 --> 00:13:27.625 align:center
Thank you, Uncle.

00:13:32.750 --> 00:13:35.750 align:center
Okay, how about this?
Katara creates a sudden blizzard.

00:13:37.541 --> 00:13:39.500 align:center
The guards have to go in
to get their coats.

00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:42.041 align:center
Well, then they'll know
we have a Waterbender with us.

00:13:42.125 --> 00:13:44.625 align:center
I still think disguising ourselves
as pillars could work.

00:13:44.708 --> 00:13:45.916 align:center
Pillars that move?

00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:48.166 align:center
Disguises did work
for getting into Omashu.

00:13:48.250 --> 00:13:52.500 align:center
Okay, so then maybe we just
disguise ourselves as the Kyoshi Warriors.

00:13:52.583 --> 00:13:54.166 align:center
- I heard they're in town.
- They are?

00:13:54.250 --> 00:13:57.416 align:center
Yeah, I overheard someone talking about it
while I was casing the palace.

00:13:57.500 --> 00:13:59.375 align:center
We should find them. Maybe they can help.

00:13:59.458 --> 00:14:02.291 align:center
There's no time.
We need to figure this out now.

00:14:03.791 --> 00:14:04.750 align:center
I've got it!

00:14:05.958 --> 00:14:09.750 align:center
They might be expecting the four of us,
but you know who they won't be expecting?

00:14:10.916 --> 00:14:11.750 align:center
Momo.

00:14:11.833 --> 00:14:13.041 align:center
We hide in the bushes.

00:14:13.125 --> 00:14:14.375 align:center
We send in Momo.

00:14:14.458 --> 00:14:17.791 align:center
Toph and Aang can earthbend above Momo
so it looks like he can earthbend.

00:14:17.875 --> 00:14:19.416 align:center
Well, lemurs can't earthbend.

00:14:19.500 --> 00:14:21.750 align:center
Exactly. They'll be confused.

00:14:21.833 --> 00:14:23.625 align:center
Therefore, distracted.

00:14:24.250 --> 00:14:27.958 align:center
You guys have had all morning
to come up with something,

00:14:28.041 --> 00:14:29.708 align:center
and this is the best we've got?

00:14:29.791 --> 00:14:33.125 align:center
This is the one time
my parents could be useful.

00:14:33.208 --> 00:14:36.583 align:center
They probably could just walk us
right through the front door.

00:14:44.791 --> 00:14:46.125 align:center
Right through the front door.

00:14:47.166 --> 00:14:48.333 align:center
Yeah, that's what I said.

00:14:49.208 --> 00:14:50.333 align:center
I've got it!

00:14:51.333 --> 00:14:53.041 align:center
Okay.

00:14:53.791 --> 00:14:54.958 align:center
Did I do this?

00:14:55.541 --> 00:14:56.500 align:center
Sokka?

00:15:00.708 --> 00:15:01.625 align:center
Okay.

00:15:06.375 --> 00:15:07.291 align:center
Boom!

00:15:07.875 --> 00:15:08.708 align:center
Genius, right?

00:15:09.833 --> 00:15:10.958 align:center
What is that?

00:15:11.041 --> 00:15:13.458 align:center
I can't even see it,
and I already know it's bad.

00:15:13.541 --> 00:15:15.083 align:center
I'm sure Sokka will explain it.

00:15:15.166 --> 00:15:17.250 align:center
It's us in the casks.

00:15:19.750 --> 00:15:21.458 align:center
- See?
- Oh.

00:15:21.541 --> 00:15:22.666 align:center
No.

00:15:23.625 --> 00:15:26.291 align:center
Are you joking right now? Is he kidding?

00:15:26.375 --> 00:15:30.166 align:center
I'm dead serious. This is what we do.
Aang and Katara get in one cask.

00:15:30.250 --> 00:15:32.208 align:center
Me and Toph will get in the other one.

00:15:32.291 --> 00:15:35.291 align:center
Our amazing Earthbenders
will bend in a false floor.

00:15:35.375 --> 00:15:37.500 align:center
So we can hide under the wine.

00:15:37.583 --> 00:15:39.541 align:center
And they'll just cart us right in.

00:15:40.125 --> 00:15:41.166 align:center
Exactly.

00:15:41.833 --> 00:15:44.333 align:center
Move your hand. No, your other hand.

00:15:44.416 --> 00:15:47.208 align:center
Sorry. It's dark. I can't see anything.

00:15:47.291 --> 00:15:49.375 align:center
Oh no! What a nightmare.

00:15:49.458 --> 00:15:51.791 align:center
Be silent.
We're approaching the palace gates.

00:15:53.916 --> 00:15:57.083 align:center
It's not the usual palace guards.
It's the Dai Li.

00:16:05.291 --> 00:16:06.500 align:center
General Sung.

00:16:07.958 --> 00:16:09.125 align:center
We've been expecting you.

00:16:09.208 --> 00:16:11.666 align:center
Yes, I have an audience
with the Earth King.

00:16:16.541 --> 00:16:19.000 align:center
A gift from the Agrarian Zone.

00:16:21.875 --> 00:16:23.750 align:center
Wine for the palace guards.

00:16:28.500 --> 00:16:29.875 align:center
We'll take them from here.

00:16:30.958 --> 00:16:33.208 align:center
Your officers must remain outside.

00:16:33.291 --> 00:16:35.541 align:center
The cultural minister
would like to see you.

00:16:44.916 --> 00:16:45.916 align:center
Hey.

00:16:48.166 --> 00:16:51.916 align:center
No one's gonna notice if only one of these
ends up in the storeroom, right?

00:17:07.416 --> 00:17:09.500 align:center
I guess your little plan worked.

00:17:11.333 --> 00:17:14.333 align:center
Of course it did.
My plans are foolproof. They always work.

00:17:16.958 --> 00:17:18.333 align:center
Where's the other cask?

00:17:18.833 --> 00:17:19.791 align:center
What?

00:17:32.333 --> 00:17:33.791 align:center
Say hi!

00:17:39.541 --> 00:17:40.958 align:center
Say hi!

00:17:50.541 --> 00:17:52.000 align:center
Coming in, Lee?

00:17:59.333 --> 00:18:00.708 align:center
Afraid of babies?

00:18:01.791 --> 00:18:02.708 align:center
Huh?

00:18:03.500 --> 00:18:05.125 align:center
You were staring out there.

00:18:07.875 --> 00:18:11.125 align:center
Oh… no. Babies are afraid of me.

00:18:15.458 --> 00:18:17.916 align:center
What do you think of the city so far?

00:18:19.708 --> 00:18:20.916 align:center
Mmm…

00:18:21.000 --> 00:18:22.875 align:center
It's okay, I guess.

00:18:24.083 --> 00:18:26.041 align:center
You clearly haven't seen
all the best sites.

00:18:27.041 --> 00:18:27.916 align:center
Um…

00:18:30.750 --> 00:18:32.500 align:center
Uh, like, where?

00:18:34.125 --> 00:18:36.041 align:center
Well, I could show you around a little.

00:18:39.041 --> 00:18:40.041 align:center
Okay.

00:18:41.291 --> 00:18:42.208 align:center
Yeah.

00:18:44.916 --> 00:18:46.250 align:center
Thank you. All right.

00:18:55.458 --> 00:18:58.208 align:center
Uh, Mushi. How's this?

00:19:12.208 --> 00:19:15.250 align:center
Dragon Well tea
should be steeped at a lower temperature.

00:19:15.333 --> 00:19:17.416 align:center
Otherwise, it could turn bitter.

00:19:17.500 --> 00:19:18.625 align:center
I'll get rid of it.

00:19:18.708 --> 00:19:20.833 align:center
No, no. We'll drink it.

00:19:20.916 --> 00:19:23.041 align:center
Bitterness has its own lessons.

00:19:23.125 --> 00:19:27.500 align:center
And once you get it right,
you can savor how far you've come.

00:19:50.250 --> 00:19:52.416 align:center
- Let's wait a minute to be sure.
- It's clear. Let's move.

00:19:52.500 --> 00:19:53.958 align:center
- Aang, wait.
- No.

00:19:54.041 --> 00:19:55.458 align:center
I'm tired of waiting.

00:19:55.958 --> 00:19:58.416 align:center
Appa needs me just as much as I need him.

00:19:58.500 --> 00:20:01.083 align:center
I know you're upset. We all do.

00:20:01.166 --> 00:20:03.000 align:center
And we're all here, trying to help.

00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:06.166 align:center
But you need to get it under control.

00:20:06.666 --> 00:20:08.541 align:center
Because if you talk
to the Earth King like this,

00:20:08.625 --> 00:20:11.250 align:center
he's not gonna listen
to a single word we have to say.

00:20:12.041 --> 00:20:14.083 align:center
Jet will have died for nothing.

00:20:14.166 --> 00:20:15.916 align:center
And we won't be
any closer to finding Appa.

00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:16.958 align:center
I'm trying.

00:20:17.041 --> 00:20:18.625 align:center
I'm trying, okay?

00:20:19.458 --> 00:20:20.541 align:center
I just…

00:20:20.625 --> 00:20:23.416 align:center
I can't think straight.

00:20:23.500 --> 00:20:24.333 align:center
I…

00:20:25.333 --> 00:20:26.375 align:center
I miss him.

00:20:27.916 --> 00:20:30.083 align:center
Okay? I miss him.

00:20:30.166 --> 00:20:31.791 align:center
Aang, breathe.

00:20:39.583 --> 00:20:40.625 align:center
Okay.

00:20:42.583 --> 00:20:44.500 align:center
- I'm okay.
- Told you they'd be here.

00:20:44.583 --> 00:20:47.250 align:center
- Come on. We found the study.
- Ahem.

00:20:48.875 --> 00:20:50.000 align:center
Toph found the study.

00:20:59.208 --> 00:21:01.916 align:center
Minister, I have a meeting to get to.

00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:04.250 align:center
Whatever this is, let's make it quick.

00:21:05.458 --> 00:21:09.166 align:center
It's interesting
that you are so busy today,

00:21:09.250 --> 00:21:13.416 align:center
when I also can't seem to locate
the Avatar and his companions.

00:21:13.500 --> 00:21:15.958 align:center
He must be busy as well.

00:21:16.041 --> 00:21:17.208 align:center
What do you want?

00:21:18.791 --> 00:21:21.000 align:center
A rumor has come to my attention

00:21:21.083 --> 00:21:24.166 align:center
that the military
is holding a high-level Fire Nation asset

00:21:24.250 --> 00:21:26.291 align:center
in custody at the wall,

00:21:26.375 --> 00:21:28.583 align:center
without informing the Crown.

00:21:30.083 --> 00:21:32.208 align:center
This is a lie, of course,

00:21:32.708 --> 00:21:36.416 align:center
meant to cast suspicion
on your loyalty to the Earth King.

00:21:37.583 --> 00:21:38.458 align:center
Isn't it?

00:21:40.083 --> 00:21:41.041 align:center
Shocking.

00:21:42.083 --> 00:21:46.208 align:center
The lies people will tell
to undermine Ba Sing Se's security.

00:21:48.708 --> 00:21:51.500 align:center
Uh, one more thing before you go, General.

00:21:52.625 --> 00:21:56.791 align:center
The king has invited your daughter
to Lake Laogai.

00:22:22.375 --> 00:22:24.125 align:center
Where's General Sung and the king?

00:22:24.958 --> 00:22:26.208 align:center
We're not late, are we?

00:22:27.041 --> 00:22:29.375 align:center
I… I don't think so.

00:22:32.416 --> 00:22:34.916 align:center
These flowers. They had them at the party.

00:22:35.000 --> 00:22:35.916 align:center
So?

00:22:38.166 --> 00:22:40.375 align:center
They said they came
from the king's garden.

00:22:55.833 --> 00:22:57.125 align:center
There we go.

00:23:02.083 --> 00:23:03.375 align:center
There we go.

00:23:06.333 --> 00:23:07.458 align:center
Your Majesty?

00:23:08.750 --> 00:23:09.583 align:center
Oh.

00:23:10.083 --> 00:23:10.958 align:center
Yes.

00:23:12.208 --> 00:23:13.541 align:center
I'm King Kuei.

00:23:13.625 --> 00:23:15.291 align:center
And we need to talk to you.

00:23:17.000 --> 00:23:20.041 align:center
Oh, yes. The Avatar.

00:23:21.375 --> 00:23:23.666 align:center
I hear you've been doing good work
in the city.

00:23:24.500 --> 00:23:27.875 align:center
Comforting the sick. Spiritual leadership.

00:23:29.958 --> 00:23:31.541 align:center
You're an Airbender.

00:23:32.708 --> 00:23:35.958 align:center
Do you know the hanging gardens
of the Western Air Temple?

00:23:36.041 --> 00:23:38.083 align:center
Yeah. I've been there.

00:23:38.583 --> 00:23:41.083 align:center
Avatar Yangchen was actually raised there.

00:23:41.166 --> 00:23:42.916 align:center
There's a flower there,

00:23:43.416 --> 00:23:45.333 align:center
the silver amaranth,

00:23:45.916 --> 00:23:48.375 align:center
that changes colors
throughout its blooming cycle.

00:23:49.708 --> 00:23:52.166 align:center
I would give my kingdom
for the chance to see one.

00:23:52.250 --> 00:23:54.625 align:center
And I would love to take you there.

00:23:54.708 --> 00:23:57.458 align:center
It's one of the most beautiful sights
in the world,

00:23:57.541 --> 00:24:00.458 align:center
but we actually have something
we need to talk to you about.

00:24:00.541 --> 00:24:01.875 align:center
A few somethings.

00:24:01.958 --> 00:24:03.625 align:center
Serious matters, Your Majesty.

00:24:03.708 --> 00:24:04.791 align:center
Oh.

00:24:06.541 --> 00:24:08.583 align:center
I have people for that sort of thing.

00:24:09.500 --> 00:24:12.875 align:center
- But if you like, I can show you around--
- We need to talk to you about the war.

00:24:15.666 --> 00:24:17.458 align:center
Politics turns my stomach.

00:24:21.416 --> 00:24:23.625 align:center
I haven't seen a sprite lily in a while.

00:24:23.708 --> 00:24:25.083 align:center
You know your flora?

00:24:25.166 --> 00:24:27.250 align:center
They're not native
to the Southern Water Tribe,

00:24:27.333 --> 00:24:30.041 align:center
but I have a friend
who taught me a few things.

00:24:34.083 --> 00:24:38.041 align:center
- Are you doing some weeding?
- Yes. Necessary work, but dirty.

00:24:38.125 --> 00:24:38.958 align:center
Hmm.

00:24:39.458 --> 00:24:42.000 align:center
The walls don't keep the weeds out,
do they, Your Majesty?

00:24:42.750 --> 00:24:45.916 align:center
No matter how hard you might try,
everything is connected.

00:24:46.625 --> 00:24:48.333 align:center
The weeds always find a way in.

00:24:50.458 --> 00:24:51.291 align:center
But

00:24:52.791 --> 00:24:54.166 align:center
with the proper help,

00:24:55.791 --> 00:24:57.625 align:center
the flowers can thrive.

00:24:59.791 --> 00:25:01.583 align:center
We just have to pay attention.

00:25:03.500 --> 00:25:04.708 align:center
And take action.

00:25:13.958 --> 00:25:15.208 align:center
I understand.

00:25:21.750 --> 00:25:23.125 align:center
I'll hear you out.

00:25:26.416 --> 00:25:28.291 align:center
Did you know she could do that?

00:25:30.416 --> 00:25:35.958 align:center
So are we just waiting
to hear what this guy decides, or what?

00:25:38.666 --> 00:25:42.000 align:center
Decision has been made for him.
He just doesn't know it yet.

00:25:44.125 --> 00:25:46.250 align:center
He did help me realize something though.

00:25:46.958 --> 00:25:48.041 align:center
What's that?

00:25:50.250 --> 00:25:51.791 align:center
What I'm supposed to do.

00:25:55.458 --> 00:25:57.375 align:center
It's the parable of the two dragons.

00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:02.375 align:center
When the world was young
and spirits roamed free,

00:26:02.458 --> 00:26:04.958 align:center
two dragons were born from the same egg.

00:26:06.250 --> 00:26:08.666 align:center
Even before they hatched,
they competed for food.

00:26:10.250 --> 00:26:14.458 align:center
One emerged, large and powerful, Hageshi.

00:26:16.000 --> 00:26:17.000 align:center
The other,

00:26:18.291 --> 00:26:20.916 align:center
weak and small,

00:26:22.416 --> 00:26:23.500 align:center
Nho Xiu.

00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:25.125 align:center
Over time,

00:26:25.625 --> 00:26:28.541 align:center
Nho Xiu learned to fend for himself,

00:26:28.625 --> 00:26:31.666 align:center
to hunt and scrounge in the dirt,

00:26:31.750 --> 00:26:33.375 align:center
somehow surviving.

00:26:34.500 --> 00:26:37.541 align:center
While Hageshi was so strong,
he could simply sit back

00:26:38.458 --> 00:26:40.583 align:center
and steal whatever prey
his twin had hunted.

00:26:41.666 --> 00:26:43.583 align:center
Hageshi grew so large,

00:26:44.791 --> 00:26:47.125 align:center
he became lord of all dragons,

00:26:48.708 --> 00:26:50.708 align:center
whether he deserved the title or not.

00:26:52.166 --> 00:26:53.708 align:center
And the two hated each other.

00:26:55.208 --> 00:26:58.666 align:center
One day,
Nho Xiu slaughtered a great beast.

00:26:59.750 --> 00:27:03.291 align:center
And tired of his brother's theft, he flew
to a distant cave to eat his prize.

00:27:05.750 --> 00:27:07.458 align:center
But Hageshi still found him

00:27:08.500 --> 00:27:11.041 align:center
and stole the food
out of the mouth of his starving twin.

00:27:13.583 --> 00:27:14.625 align:center
Sated,

00:27:16.375 --> 00:27:17.666 align:center
Hageshi slept.

00:27:19.500 --> 00:27:20.791 align:center
He was vulnerable.

00:27:22.458 --> 00:27:25.083 align:center
It was Nho Xiu's moment to get revenge,

00:27:25.166 --> 00:27:28.125 align:center
to take everything he'd ever wanted.

00:27:29.291 --> 00:27:32.416 align:center
Nho Xiu hesitated for a moment
and missed his chance.

00:27:33.375 --> 00:27:34.916 align:center
Hageshi opened his eyes

00:27:35.791 --> 00:27:38.375 align:center
and saw his brother standing over him
with bloody intent.

00:27:40.375 --> 00:27:42.333 align:center
Nho Xiu attacked, but it was too late.

00:27:43.833 --> 00:27:45.208 align:center
Hageshi was ready.

00:27:46.375 --> 00:27:48.541 align:center
He killed his brother easily.

00:27:49.416 --> 00:27:51.166 align:center
And the smaller dragon died

00:27:52.583 --> 00:27:55.083 align:center
full of regret
that it should come to this.

00:27:55.750 --> 00:27:57.083 align:center
I remember this one.

00:27:58.083 --> 00:28:01.375 align:center
My mother always said this is why
my sisters and I needed to share,

00:28:01.458 --> 00:28:03.541 align:center
so we wouldn't kill each other.

00:28:07.541 --> 00:28:08.541 align:center
Quaint.

00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:11.000 align:center
But wrong.

00:28:13.000 --> 00:28:15.125 align:center
Nho Xiu didn't regret hating his brother.

00:28:16.125 --> 00:28:18.416 align:center
His only regret
was not killing him while he slept.

00:28:19.000 --> 00:28:22.625 align:center
The lesson is to strike down your enemy
completely when you have the chance.

00:28:25.916 --> 00:28:27.416 align:center
I've been sent here,

00:28:28.625 --> 00:28:30.625 align:center
far from court, to hunt my brother.

00:28:32.500 --> 00:28:35.375 align:center
And though he's weak, he's dangerous.

00:28:37.125 --> 00:28:38.541 align:center
And I will not

00:28:39.458 --> 00:28:43.500 align:center
miss my chance to kill Zuko.

00:29:35.708 --> 00:29:38.625 align:center
Everything we need
to defeat the Fire Nation is in there.

00:29:40.166 --> 00:29:42.333 align:center
I can't believe
I haven't heard any of this.

00:29:42.416 --> 00:29:44.291 align:center
Well, I heard it from Kyoshi herself.

00:29:45.541 --> 00:29:47.791 align:center
It was in the Spirit Library.
Just trust me.

00:29:48.416 --> 00:29:51.541 align:center
And you're proposing
that before this comet comes,

00:29:51.625 --> 00:29:55.208 align:center
we launch a major offensive
on the Day of Black Sun?

00:29:55.291 --> 00:29:57.083 align:center
With your help, Your Majesty,

00:29:57.750 --> 00:29:58.916 align:center
we could save the world.

00:29:59.000 --> 00:30:00.416 align:center
If this is true,

00:30:00.916 --> 00:30:03.708 align:center
this may be the most important thing
I've ever heard

00:30:03.791 --> 00:30:06.583 align:center
and the most important decision
I've ever had to make.

00:30:08.833 --> 00:30:09.666 align:center
General Sung.

00:30:12.291 --> 00:30:14.541 align:center
General Sung, Long Feng,

00:30:14.625 --> 00:30:17.041 align:center
I've just heard some very upsetting news.

00:30:17.125 --> 00:30:20.750 align:center
The fall of Omashu,
an army camped outside our walls,

00:30:20.833 --> 00:30:24.041 align:center
and a comet that will give the Firebenders
extraordinary power.

00:30:24.125 --> 00:30:26.125 align:center
General Sung can back up
everything we've said.

00:30:26.208 --> 00:30:27.583 align:center
Is what they say true?

00:30:31.333 --> 00:30:32.833 align:center
- No.
- What?

00:30:32.916 --> 00:30:36.000 align:center
Ba Sing Se is as strong as it ever was,
Your Majesty.

00:30:36.083 --> 00:30:38.666 align:center
There are Fire Nation forces
outside our walls,

00:30:38.750 --> 00:30:40.208 align:center
but they will be easily handled.

00:30:40.291 --> 00:30:42.541 align:center
Kyoshi scouts have captured their general

00:30:42.625 --> 00:30:44.291 align:center
and brought him into the city
as a prisoner.

00:30:44.375 --> 00:30:47.916 align:center
The Avatar and his friends
simply want to feel important

00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:49.625 align:center
in a city that does not need them.

00:30:49.708 --> 00:30:52.333 align:center
General Sung, what are you doing?

00:30:52.416 --> 00:30:53.375 align:center
Your Highness.

00:30:55.208 --> 00:30:58.500 align:center
We mustn't be too hard
on the Avatar and his friends.

00:30:59.000 --> 00:31:00.541 align:center
They're but children after all.

00:31:00.625 --> 00:31:04.333 align:center
You can't listen to him!
He lied to me, and he's lying to you!

00:31:04.416 --> 00:31:07.250 align:center
Aang has tried for weeks
to come here and tell you all of this.

00:31:07.333 --> 00:31:08.583 align:center
And Long Feng has stopped him.

00:31:08.666 --> 00:31:10.375 align:center
Interesting narrative,

00:31:10.458 --> 00:31:12.208 align:center
coming from a thief.

00:31:12.291 --> 00:31:13.958 align:center
Katara is no thief.

00:31:14.041 --> 00:31:14.916 align:center
Oh, but she is.

00:31:15.500 --> 00:31:16.875 align:center
The night of the party,

00:31:16.958 --> 00:31:21.291 align:center
she stole some precious and valuable
golden nettles from the palace,

00:31:21.375 --> 00:31:23.916 align:center
taking advantage
of Your Majesty's hospitality.

00:31:24.000 --> 00:31:27.583 align:center
Since then, she has been agitating
in the Lower Ring every night,

00:31:27.666 --> 00:31:30.500 align:center
stirring tension
in a typically peaceful place.

00:31:32.208 --> 00:31:34.000 align:center
I was helping people who needed it.

00:31:34.083 --> 00:31:36.208 align:center
If you were being so helpful,

00:31:36.291 --> 00:31:39.083 align:center
why did you have to don a disguise
and hide your actions?

00:31:39.166 --> 00:31:41.083 align:center
If you were being so helpful,

00:31:41.666 --> 00:31:43.458 align:center
why did you flee the scene of a riot?

00:31:46.958 --> 00:31:48.666 align:center
And that's just the start.

00:31:50.083 --> 00:31:51.083 align:center
Sources tell me

00:31:51.166 --> 00:31:54.583 align:center
the Beifongs have been manufacturing
war machines for the Fire Nation.

00:31:55.166 --> 00:31:59.000 align:center
War machines that they used
against the Northern Water Tribe.

00:31:59.083 --> 00:32:01.500 align:center
War machines that they would use
against Ba Sing Se.

00:32:01.583 --> 00:32:03.583 align:center
They are traitors to the Earth Kingdom.

00:32:03.666 --> 00:32:04.666 align:center
That's not true.

00:32:04.750 --> 00:32:08.250 align:center
Toph didn't know anything about that
until… until recently.

00:32:08.833 --> 00:32:12.375 align:center
Lady Beifong is now in the city
and has been in touch with her daughter.

00:32:12.458 --> 00:32:16.541 align:center
Who knows what young Toph
could be planning to share with her?

00:32:17.583 --> 00:32:18.666 align:center
And this one.

00:32:19.875 --> 00:32:21.833 align:center
This one was the last person seen

00:32:21.916 --> 00:32:24.166 align:center
by one of the city's
most prominent thinkers

00:32:24.250 --> 00:32:25.291 align:center
before he went missing.

00:32:25.375 --> 00:32:28.750 align:center
The Dai Li are investigating
the disappearance of Professor Zei

00:32:28.833 --> 00:32:30.000 align:center
as a possible murder.

00:32:30.083 --> 00:32:34.083 align:center
Your Majesty, the Dai Li can't be trusted.
They are loyal only to Long Feng.

00:32:34.166 --> 00:32:35.625 align:center
Keep in mind, Your Majesty,

00:32:36.125 --> 00:32:38.541 align:center
that these accusations
are coming from a young man

00:32:38.625 --> 00:32:40.833 align:center
who is a known collaborator with Sai,

00:32:40.916 --> 00:32:43.916 align:center
the Fire Nation spy
who concocted this whole story.

00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:44.958 align:center
- Sai didn't--
- What?

00:32:45.041 --> 00:32:47.291 align:center
Didn't attempt
to assassinate the King of Omashu?

00:32:47.375 --> 00:32:48.750 align:center
We can explain all of this.

00:32:48.833 --> 00:32:52.291 align:center
You certainly do spin marvelous tales.

00:32:52.375 --> 00:32:53.833 align:center
You see, Your Majesty,

00:32:53.916 --> 00:32:56.166 align:center
the Avatar is in league

00:32:56.250 --> 00:32:59.333 align:center
with a thief, a spy, and a traitor.

00:32:59.416 --> 00:33:01.666 align:center
How could we possibly trust the Avatar

00:33:01.750 --> 00:33:05.708 align:center
when his companions have shown themselves
to be enemies of the Earth Kingdom?

00:33:05.791 --> 00:33:09.125 align:center
Please, Your Majesty,
no matter what he says about us,

00:33:09.208 --> 00:33:11.541 align:center
it doesn't change the fact
your city's in danger.

00:33:11.625 --> 00:33:13.250 align:center
The Fire Nation is coming,

00:33:13.333 --> 00:33:16.291 align:center
and <i>you </i>have the power
to stand up and fight.

00:33:19.166 --> 00:33:22.625 align:center
Please, Your Majesty, we need your help.

00:33:24.416 --> 00:33:27.458 align:center
The world… needs your help.

00:33:35.291 --> 00:33:36.125 align:center
Long Feng.

00:33:39.833 --> 00:33:41.083 align:center
What should I do?

00:33:41.166 --> 00:33:43.500 align:center
Don't ask him. He's a liar.

00:33:45.291 --> 00:33:46.750 align:center
Where did you take Appa?

00:33:46.833 --> 00:33:48.708 align:center
- Aang, don't.
- I know it was you!

00:33:49.708 --> 00:33:53.083 align:center
Where is Appa?

00:33:54.500 --> 00:33:56.458 align:center
- Stay back, Your Majesty.
- Aang!

00:34:00.583 --> 00:34:01.750 align:center
Aang!

00:34:15.416 --> 00:34:17.916 align:center
Escort the Avatar and his friends home.

00:34:39.625 --> 00:34:41.750 align:center
Thank you, Long Feng,

00:34:42.708 --> 00:34:45.208 align:center
for your help and your loyalty.

00:34:46.833 --> 00:34:49.083 align:center
I am your humble servant.

00:34:50.958 --> 00:34:53.875 align:center
But I was never told
of these Fire Nation forces.

00:34:53.958 --> 00:34:55.125 align:center
General Sung.

00:34:56.208 --> 00:34:59.375 align:center
You said that part of the story was true.
Did you not?

00:34:59.958 --> 00:35:02.333 align:center
Yes. I'll plan a visit
for you to check on our forces--

00:35:02.416 --> 00:35:03.666 align:center
General Sung,

00:35:04.375 --> 00:35:07.125 align:center
please send me the most recent
action reports from the wall.

00:35:08.291 --> 00:35:09.458 align:center
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:35:09.541 --> 00:35:10.625 align:center
And in the future,

00:35:11.208 --> 00:35:14.000 align:center
notify me immediately and directly

00:35:14.083 --> 00:35:16.416 align:center
of any threats to our borders.

00:35:35.791 --> 00:35:38.500 align:center
Whatever loose hold you have on the city,

00:35:39.583 --> 00:35:41.333 align:center
it's slipping away.

00:36:13.666 --> 00:36:15.416 align:center
Hey, we'll come up with a new plan.

00:36:16.250 --> 00:36:17.375 align:center
We'll figure it out.

00:36:18.041 --> 00:36:19.083 align:center
A new plan?

00:36:20.083 --> 00:36:22.000 align:center
It's over. We lost.

00:36:22.083 --> 00:36:23.166 align:center
Don't say that.

00:36:23.250 --> 00:36:24.833 align:center
And it's all your fault.

00:36:25.416 --> 00:36:26.250 align:center
Me?

00:36:26.333 --> 00:36:29.041 align:center
Everything was going great
up until Long Feng told the king

00:36:29.125 --> 00:36:30.583 align:center
what <i>you've </i>been doing at night.

00:36:30.666 --> 00:36:33.125 align:center
I took those nettles to help a sick kid.

00:36:33.208 --> 00:36:35.416 align:center
Everything that I did was to help people.

00:36:35.500 --> 00:36:36.958 align:center
Well, it didn't help us, did it?

00:36:37.041 --> 00:36:40.375 align:center
Back off, Aang. We would've said something
if it was any of your business.

00:36:40.458 --> 00:36:42.083 align:center
You told her about this and not me?

00:36:42.166 --> 00:36:45.666 align:center
She didn't tell me.
I felt her leaving the house at night.

00:36:45.750 --> 00:36:46.666 align:center
So you both lied?

00:36:46.750 --> 00:36:48.458 align:center
No!

00:36:48.541 --> 00:36:51.333 align:center
Maybe you would've felt it too
if you had focused on your earthbending

00:36:51.416 --> 00:36:53.291 align:center
instead of running around with Long Feng.

00:36:53.375 --> 00:36:56.000 align:center
- So much for being there for each other.
- Don't even start.

00:36:56.083 --> 00:36:59.208 align:center
When did you find out her parents
were building weapons for the Fire Nation?

00:36:59.291 --> 00:37:03.041 align:center
Hey, I don't have anything to do with them
anymore, so it doesn't even matter.

00:37:03.125 --> 00:37:04.208 align:center
It matters.

00:37:04.291 --> 00:37:07.416 align:center
How long has your family been in business
with the Fire Nation?

00:37:07.500 --> 00:37:09.500 align:center
Do they build warships for them?

00:37:10.833 --> 00:37:13.666 align:center
Did they build the ships
that came to Wolf Cove?

00:37:13.750 --> 00:37:15.958 align:center
Did they build the ships
that brought Firebenders

00:37:16.041 --> 00:37:19.291 align:center
that burned down our village
and murdered my mother?

00:37:19.375 --> 00:37:22.375 align:center
The ones that drove our father
to abandon us?

00:37:22.458 --> 00:37:23.791 align:center
Did they build those ships?

00:37:27.125 --> 00:37:28.833 align:center
How could you not have told me?

00:37:29.750 --> 00:37:31.208 align:center
I didn't even think about it.

00:37:32.208 --> 00:37:33.416 align:center
You never do.

00:37:36.041 --> 00:37:36.875 align:center
Wow.

00:37:38.041 --> 00:37:42.166 align:center
I thought that you guys understood
that I am not my family.

00:37:42.250 --> 00:37:43.083 align:center
Are you sure?

00:37:43.166 --> 00:37:46.333 align:center
Because it kind of sounds like
you talk to them all the time.

00:37:46.416 --> 00:37:48.333 align:center
- What?
- Is your mother in town?

00:37:48.416 --> 00:37:50.791 align:center
- Yes, but--
- You didn't think we should know that?

00:37:51.500 --> 00:37:53.458 align:center
I haven't spoken to her.

00:37:54.250 --> 00:37:57.041 align:center
All she did was send me a letter
to tell me that she was here.

00:37:57.125 --> 00:38:00.458 align:center
Was this before or after you found out
that she was a war criminal?

00:38:00.541 --> 00:38:01.666 align:center
Are you kidding?

00:38:03.250 --> 00:38:05.916 align:center
I'm not a war criminal.

00:38:07.250 --> 00:38:09.041 align:center
I've been here,

00:38:09.541 --> 00:38:11.750 align:center
helping the Avatar
get ready to fight the Fire Nation.

00:38:11.833 --> 00:38:13.541 align:center
- Where have you been?
- Good question.

00:38:13.625 --> 00:38:15.083 align:center
Maybe she was starting a riot.

00:38:15.166 --> 00:38:16.625 align:center
I didn't start a riot.

00:38:17.125 --> 00:38:19.541 align:center
Some people were attacking
innocent Fire Nation defectors.

00:38:19.625 --> 00:38:22.000 align:center
- They were--
- Whoa! You were defending Fire Nation?

00:38:22.083 --> 00:38:23.916 align:center
Okay. Okay, so it's fine for you.

00:38:24.000 --> 00:38:26.250 align:center
I was defending innocent people.

00:38:26.333 --> 00:38:28.208 align:center
It doesn't even matter what I was doing.

00:38:28.291 --> 00:38:30.625 align:center
We know the reason this all fell apart
is Long Feng.

00:38:30.708 --> 00:38:33.416 align:center
I knew that guy was no good
from the moment that we met him.

00:38:33.500 --> 00:38:36.458 align:center
How was I supposed to know?
He was helping us.

00:38:36.541 --> 00:38:37.833 align:center
Obviously, he wasn't.

00:38:37.916 --> 00:38:41.125 align:center
- What about the people <i>you </i>trusted?
- Professor Zei was a real winner.

00:38:41.208 --> 00:38:43.625 align:center
Oh yeah,
like you did any better with General Sung.

00:38:43.708 --> 00:38:45.750 align:center
- You said she was on board.
- She was.

00:38:45.833 --> 00:38:47.125 align:center
Then what happened?

00:38:47.208 --> 00:38:48.625 align:center
What do you think?

00:38:48.708 --> 00:38:50.750 align:center
- Long Feng got to her.
- Stop blaming me.

00:38:50.833 --> 00:38:53.750 align:center
I told you you had to stay calm.

00:38:54.250 --> 00:38:55.416 align:center
- I warned you.
- Yeah.

00:38:55.500 --> 00:38:58.125 align:center
Yet you had to go and fly off
into the Avatar State anyway.

00:38:58.208 --> 00:38:59.541 align:center
We'd already lost

00:38:59.625 --> 00:39:02.666 align:center
after the Earth King heard
what you three had been doing.

00:39:02.750 --> 00:39:04.500 align:center
It's like none of this matters to you.

00:39:04.583 --> 00:39:06.416 align:center
You all act like my friends,

00:39:06.500 --> 00:39:10.333 align:center
like you understand
the pressure I'm under, but you don't.

00:39:11.750 --> 00:39:14.500 align:center
<i>I </i>have to save the world.

00:39:15.416 --> 00:39:18.916 align:center
And you can all pretend to get it,
but you don't have any idea.

00:39:19.416 --> 00:39:21.500 align:center
The only one who cared was Appa.

00:39:22.208 --> 00:39:23.541 align:center
And he's gone.

00:39:24.708 --> 00:39:27.000 align:center
Because you lost him.

00:39:27.083 --> 00:39:29.375 align:center
Because I had to save you!

00:39:31.916 --> 00:39:33.250 align:center
You know what?

00:39:35.250 --> 00:39:36.666 align:center
I don't need this.

00:39:37.625 --> 00:39:39.000 align:center
I may be blind,

00:39:39.916 --> 00:39:41.958 align:center
but you guys don't see me at all.

00:39:43.125 --> 00:39:44.750 align:center
- Hey.
- Go ahead.

00:39:45.250 --> 00:39:46.083 align:center
Leave.

00:39:46.166 --> 00:39:48.166 align:center
It's not like I need you anymore anyway.

00:39:56.083 --> 00:39:58.833 align:center
- You're just gonna let her go?
- You can go too if you want.

00:39:58.916 --> 00:40:02.291 align:center
Unless you wanna sit around
and make another plan that won't work.

00:40:03.250 --> 00:40:04.958 align:center
No, my plan worked fine.

00:40:06.041 --> 00:40:07.208 align:center
We just got beat.

00:40:08.875 --> 00:40:11.500 align:center
And that's not on me. That's on you.

00:40:17.250 --> 00:40:19.125 align:center
So much for Team Avatar, huh?

00:40:21.708 --> 00:40:22.666 align:center
Sokka.

00:40:36.083 --> 00:40:37.458 align:center
You said you were with me.

00:40:40.750 --> 00:40:42.291 align:center
I've always been with you.

00:40:43.083 --> 00:40:46.333 align:center
I do everything that I can to help you.

00:40:46.416 --> 00:40:49.250 align:center
No. You're off doing your own thing.

00:40:49.750 --> 00:40:51.708 align:center
You don't care.

00:40:53.041 --> 00:40:54.625 align:center
Where were you today?

00:40:54.708 --> 00:40:58.875 align:center
I had to carry the whole team
because you were so distraught.

00:40:58.958 --> 00:41:01.750 align:center
It was because
I made everyone focus on their jobs

00:41:01.833 --> 00:41:04.166 align:center
that we got in front of the king
in the first place.

00:41:04.250 --> 00:41:06.000 align:center
And that worked really great.

00:41:07.333 --> 00:41:08.458 align:center
Didn't it?

00:41:12.541 --> 00:41:13.625 align:center
You know what?

00:41:15.666 --> 00:41:17.583 align:center
Carry yourself from now on.

00:41:38.291 --> 00:41:39.458 align:center
I can explain.

00:41:41.333 --> 00:41:44.083 align:center
You don't have to justify
your choices to me.

00:41:48.625 --> 00:41:49.500 align:center
I want to anyway.

00:41:53.625 --> 00:41:57.666 align:center
I'm not doing this out of anger
or for vengeance.

00:41:59.041 --> 00:42:02.250 align:center
I'm doing this because
I want to help people.

00:42:04.208 --> 00:42:05.250 align:center
And

00:42:06.833 --> 00:42:08.333 align:center
I'm doing this for myself.

00:42:11.625 --> 00:42:12.541 align:center
Zuko.

00:42:15.375 --> 00:42:17.166 align:center
I'm glad you brought me here.

00:42:18.291 --> 00:42:19.791 align:center
You're a good man.

00:42:45.625 --> 00:42:46.458 align:center
Can I help you?

00:42:46.541 --> 00:42:51.708 align:center
I was hoping to find a friend
who still clings to the ancient ways.

00:43:22.916 --> 00:43:24.333 align:center
I am Iroh.

00:43:24.833 --> 00:43:26.250 align:center
Dragon of the West.

00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:29.083 align:center
I come to offer my services.

00:43:31.041 --> 00:43:33.500 align:center
But you knew I was here, didn't you?

00:43:34.833 --> 00:43:37.458 align:center
The Dragon of the West
is a cold-blooded killer.

00:43:39.916 --> 00:43:42.041 align:center
He ordered the burning
of countless innocents,

00:43:42.125 --> 00:43:44.583 align:center
the slaughter of those who would resist us

00:43:44.666 --> 00:43:49.916 align:center
and any who would oppose
what our great nation was doing.

00:43:50.500 --> 00:43:51.958 align:center
I'm not that man anymore.

00:43:58.208 --> 00:44:00.208 align:center
You cannot escape the Dragon.

00:44:00.291 --> 00:44:02.958 align:center
You and he are one and the same.

00:44:03.041 --> 00:44:05.708 align:center
Those actions are your actions,

00:44:06.958 --> 00:44:09.166 align:center
no matter how long you run from them.

00:44:12.041 --> 00:44:13.708 align:center
I served under the Dragon.

00:44:13.791 --> 00:44:15.708 align:center
I deserted the Dragon.

00:44:17.833 --> 00:44:20.000 align:center
I left a regiment leaderless.

00:44:21.916 --> 00:44:26.541 align:center
Many of those I abandoned perished
before the retreat was ordered.

00:44:32.208 --> 00:44:34.375 align:center
One of them was named Lu Ten.

00:44:37.625 --> 00:44:41.416 align:center
The Dragon would consume me
in the fire of vengeance.

00:44:42.750 --> 00:44:45.541 align:center
What will this old man do?

00:45:02.000 --> 00:45:03.875 align:center
I ask your forgiveness

00:45:04.458 --> 00:45:06.791 align:center
for the things I ordered you to do.

00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:17.166 align:center
I forgive you.

00:45:20.833 --> 00:45:22.125 align:center
Seconded?

00:45:22.208 --> 00:45:23.416 align:center
- Aye.
- Aye.

00:45:28.125 --> 00:45:29.416 align:center
Welcome, Iroh,

00:45:30.000 --> 00:45:31.375 align:center
to the White Lotus.

00:45:32.125 --> 00:45:33.541 align:center
There's work to be done.

00:47:22.958 --> 00:47:24.041 align:center
Toph!

00:47:30.416 --> 00:47:31.333 align:center
Hi, Mom.

00:47:59.583 --> 00:48:01.458 align:center
You.

00:48:03.500 --> 00:48:05.041 align:center
Hi again!

00:48:11.541 --> 00:48:13.875 align:center
I really messed everything up,

00:48:14.541 --> 00:48:15.625 align:center
huh, Momo?

00:48:20.125 --> 00:48:21.625 align:center
I failed

00:48:22.666 --> 00:48:23.958 align:center
everyone.

00:48:33.583 --> 00:48:37.333 align:center
<i>I had to feel everything</i>

00:48:37.416 --> 00:48:41.041 align:center
<i>so that I could feel nothing,</i>

00:48:41.958 --> 00:48:46.291 align:center
<i>which is the key to feeling everything.</i>

00:49:25.666 --> 00:49:26.583 align:center
Appa.
