Katara: Water...
Earth...
Fire...
Air.
Long ago, the Four Nations livedtogether in harmony.
Then everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked.
Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them.
But when the world needed him most, he vanished.
100 years passed and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar...
An airbender named Aang.
And although his airbending skills are great
he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone.
But I believe Aang can save the world.
[♪...]
More ferocious.
Imagine striking through your opponent's heart.
Ugh, I'm trying.
Now let me hear you roar like a tiger-dillo.
Rarr.
That sounded pathetic.
I said roar.
[roars]
Who wants a nice, cool glass of watermelon juice?
Ooh, ooh, me, me, me.
Zuko: Hey, your lesson'snot over yet, get back here.
Suki: Come on, Zuko.
Just take a break,what's a big deal?
Fine.
If you want to lounge around like a bunch of snail-sloths all day, then go ahead.
Sokka: Maybe Zuko's right.
Sitting around the house has made us pretty lazy
but I know just the thing to change that...
Beach party!
Check out my Appa sand sculpture.
[roars]
Toph: Not bad, baldy.
But I've been working on my sandbending.
You're gonna love this.
[grunts]
Whoa...
Wow, you even made a little Earth King and Bosco.
Try and top that, Sokka.
Ta-da.
Aang: Is that a...Blubbering blob monster?
No, it's Suki.
[laughing]
Suki, we'll all understand ifyou break up with him over this.
I think it's sweet.
But it doesn't even look like...
[screams]
What're you doing?
Teaching you a lesson.
Katara: What happened?
Zuko's gone crazy.
I made a sand sculpture of suki and he destroyed it.
Oh, and he's attacking Aang.
Get a grip before I blast you off this roof.
Go ahead and do it.
Enough.
[grunting]
What's wrong with you?
You could've hurt Aang.
What's wrong with me?
What's wrong with all of you?
How can you sit around having beach parties
when Sozin's comet is only three days away?
Why are you all looking at me like I'm crazy?
About Sozin's comet...
I was actually gonnawait to fight the Fire Lorduntil after it came.
After?
I'm not ready.
I need more timeto master firebending.
And frankly, your earthbending could still use some work too.
So you all knew Aang was gonna wait?
Honestly, if Aang tries tofight the Fire Lord right now
he's gonna lose, no offense.
The whole point of fightingthe Fire Lord before the comet
was to stop the Fire Nationfrom winning the war.
But they pretty much won the war when they took Ba Sing Se.
Things can't get any worse.
You're wrong.
It's about to get worse than you can even imagine.
The day before the eclipse, my father asked me to attend an important war meeting.
It was what I dreamed about and wanted for so many years.
My father had finally accepted me back.
Ozai: Welcome, Prince Zuko.
We waited for you.
General Shinu, your report.
Thank you, sir.
Ba Sing Se is still under our control.
However, earthbender rebellions have prevented us
from achieving total victory in the Earth Kingdom.
What is your recommendation?
Our army is spread too thin.
But once the eclipse is over and the invasion defeated
we should transfer more domesticforces into the Earth Kingdom.
Hmm.
Prince Zuko, you've been among the Earth Kingdom commoners.
Do you think that adding more troops will stop these rebellions?
The people of the Earth Kingdom are proud and strong.
They can endure anything as long as they have hope.
Yes, you're right.
We need to destroy their hope.
Well, that's not exactly what I...
I think you should take their precious hope and the rest of their land
and burn it all to the ground.
Yes...
Yes, you're right, Azula.
Sozin's comet is almost upon us.
And on that day, it will endow us with the strength and power of 100 suns.
No bender will stand a chance against us.
What are you suggesting, sir?
When the comet last came, my grandfather, Firelord Sozin
used it to wipe out the air nomads.
Now I will use its power to end the Earth Kingdom.
Permanently.
From our airships, we will rain fire over their lands.
A fire that will destroy everything.
And out of the ashes, a new world will be born.
A world in which allthe lands are Fire Nation
and I am the supreme ruler of everything.
Zuko: I wanted to speak out against his horrifying plan.
But I'm ashamed to say I didn't.
My whole life, I struggled to gain my father's love and acceptance.
But once I had it, I realized I lost myself getting there.
I'd forgotten who I was.
I can't believe this.
I always knew the Fire Lordwas a bad guy, but...
His plan is just pure evil.
What am I gonna do?
I know you're scared.
And I know you're not ready to save the world.
But if you don't defeat the Fire Lord before the comet comes...
There won't be a world to save anymore.
Why didn't you tell me about your dad's crazy plan sooner?
I didn't think I had to.
I assumed you were still gonna fight him before the comet.
No one told me you decided to wait.
This is bad.
This is really, really bad.
Aang, you don't have to do this alone.
Yeah, if we all fight the Fire Lord together
we got a shot at taking him down.
All right!
Team Avatar is back.
Air...
Water...
Earth...
Fire...
Fan and sword.
Fighting the Fire Lord is gonna be the hardest thing we've ever done together.
But I wouldn't want to do it any other way.
[laughing]
All right.Toph: Yeah.
Get over here, Zuko.
Being part of the group also means being part of group hugs.
[Appa growls]
[everyone grunts]
Zuko: There's one technique you need to know before facing my father.
How to redirect lightning.
If you let the energy in your own body flow
the lightning will follow it.
You turn your opponent's energy against them.
That's like waterbending.
Exactly.
My uncle invented this technique himself by studying waterbenders.
So... Have you everredirected lightning before?
Once... Against my father.
What did it feel like?
Exhilarating .
But terrifying.
You feel so powerful holding that much energy in your body
but you know if you make the wrong move, it's over.
[laughs nervously] Well, not "over" over, I mean...
There's always Katara anda little spirit water action,am I right?
Actually, I used it all up after Azula shot you.
Oh.
You'll have to take the Fire Lord's life
before he takes yours.
Yeah... I'll just do that.
Sokka: Gather 'round, team Avatar.
In order to take out the Fire Lord
or, in this case, the Melon Lord
our timing has to be perfect.
First, Suki and I will draw his fire.
Then Katara and Zuko will chargein with some liquidy-hot offense
and while the Melon Lord is distracted
Aang swoops in and bam.
He delivers the final blow.
Uh... What about me?
Sokka: For now, you're the Melon Lord's forces.
So I get to chuck flaming rocks at all of you?
Whatever makes the training feel more realistic.
Sweetness.
[laughs evilly]
[chirps]
Watch it, Toph.
I am not Toph, I am Melon Lord.
[laughs evilly]
Now, Aang.
What are you waiting for?
Take him out.
I can't.
What's wrong with you?
If this was the real deal
you'd be shot full of lightning right now.
I'm sorry, but it justdidn't feel right.
I didn't feel like myself.
[melon squishes]
Sokka: There, that's how it's done.
[crickets chirping...]
I have a surprise for everyone.
I knew it.
You didhave a secret thing with Haru.
Uh, no.
I was looking for cooking pots in the attic, and I found this.
Look at Baby Zuko,isn't he cute?
[everyone laughs and sighs]
Katara: Oh, lighten up,I'm just teasing.
That's not me.
It's my father.
But he looks so sweet and innocent.
Well, that sweet little kid grew up to be a monster.
And the worst father in the history of fathers.
Aang: But he's still a human being.
You're going to defend him?
No, I agree with you.
Firelord Ozai is a horrible person
and the world would probably be better off without him.
But there's gotta be another way.
Zuko: Like what?
I don't know.
Maybe we could make some big pots of glue
and then I could use gluebending to stick his arms and legs together
so he can't bend anymore.
Yeah, then you can show him his baby pictures
and all those happy memories will make him good again.
Do you really think that would work?
No!
[sighs]
This goes against everything I learned from the monks.
I can't just go around wiping out people I don't like.
Sure you can, you're the Avatar.
If it's in the name of keeping balance,
I'm pretty sure the universe will forgive you.
This isn't a joke, Sokka!
None of you understands the position I'm in!
Aang, we do understand,it's just...
Just what, Katara, what?
We're trying to help.
Then when you figure out a way for me to beat the Fire Lord
without taking his life, I'd love to hear it.
Aang, don't walk away from this.
Zuko: Let him go.
He needs time to sort it out by himself.
[chirps]
Hey, Momo.
I don't suppose you know what I should do.
[chirps]
I didn't think so.
[voices chanting indistinctly...]
[chirping...]
Sokka: Ok, that's everything.
Toph: No, it's not.
Where's Aang?
Aang?
Aang.
Come on, lazybones, let's go.
Sokka: He left his staff.
That's so strange.
Aang's not in the house,let's check the beach.
Sokka: Look, there's his footprints.
The trail ends here.
So... He went for a midnight swim and never came back?
Maybe he was captured.
Sokka: I don't think so, there's no sign of a struggle.
I bet he ran away again.
Uh-uh, he left behind his glider and Appa.
Then what do you think happened to him, oh, sleuthy one?
It's pretty obvious.
Aang mysteriously disappears before an important battle.
He's definitely on a spirit world journey.
But if he was, wouldn't his body still be here?
Oh, yeah, forgot about that.
Katara: Then he's gotta be somewhere on Ember Island.
Let's split up and look for him.
I'm going with Zuko.
What? Everyone else went on a life-changing field trip with Zuko, now it's my turn.
[chanting] Aang, Aang, Aang, Aang, Aang...
Aang, Aang, Aang, Aang...
Avatar state, yip-yip.
[cheering]
Toph: And then when I was nine, I ran away again.
Zuko: Uh-huh.
I know I shouldn't complain.
My parents gave meeverything I ever asked for.
But they never gave methe one thing thatI really wanted: Their love.
[sighs]You know what I mean?
Look, I know you had a rough childhood,
but we should really focus on finding Aang.
This is the worst field trip ever.
[exhales loudly]
Judging by the looks on your faces, I'm guessing you guys didn't find Aang, either.
No.
It's like he just... Disappeared.
Hey, wait a minute.
Has anyone noticed thatMomo's missing, too?
Oh, no.
I knew it was only a matter of time.
Appa ate Momo!
Momo, I'm coming for you, buddy.
Sokka, Appa didn't eat Momo.
He's probably with Aang.
That's just what Appa wants you to think.
Zuko: Get out of the bison's mouth, Sokka.
We have a real problem here.
Aang is nowhere to be found, andthe comet is only two days away.
What should we do, Zuko?
I don't know.
Why are you all looking at me?
Well, you are kind ofthe expert on tracking Aang.
Yeah, if anyone's got experiencehunting the Avatar, it's you.
Zuko, I don't want to tell youhow to do your job, but...
Why are we headingtowards the Earth Kingdom?
There's no way Aang's there.
Just trust me.
[Appa grunts]
Come on, slowpokes, faster.
Sorry I'm late, father.
Good palanquin bearers are so hard to come by these days.
So, is everything ready for our departure?
Ozai: There has been a change of plans, Azula.
What?
Ozai: I've decided to lead
the fleet of airships to Ba Sing Se alone.
You will reMain here in the Fire Nation.
But I thought we were going to do this together.
My decision is final.
You, you can't treat me like this.
You can't treat me like Zuko.
Azula, silence yourself.
But it was my idea to burn everything to the ground.
I deserve to be by your side.
Azula?
Listen to me.
I need you here to watch over the homeland.
It's a very important job that I can only entrust to you.
Really?
Ozai: And for your loyalty, I've decided to declare you the new Fire Lord.
Firelord Azula?
It does seem appropriate.
But what about you?
Firelord Ozai is no more.
Just as the world will be reborn in fire...
I shall be reborn as the supreme ruler of the world.
From this moment on, I will be known as...
The Phoenix King.
[general conversation]
And the reason you've brought usto a seedy Earth Kingdom tavern is what now?
June.
[grunts]
Sokka: Oh, yeah, that weird bounty hunter with the giant mole.
Suki: Mole? Her skin is flawless.
Sokka: No, she has this giant mole creature she rides around on.
The shirshu.
It's the only animal that can track Aang's scent anywhere in the world.
It's the one shot we have of finding him.
[grunting]
[screams and grunts]
I don't know who this June lady is, but I like her.
[chirping]
[grunts] Hey, Momo.
I just had the strangest dream.
Wait.
Where are we?
Sokka: Hey, I remember her.
She helped you attack us.
Yup, back in the good old days.
June: Oh, great, it's Prince Pouty.
Where's your creepy grandpa?
He's my uncle... And he's not here.
I see you worked things out with your girlfriend.
I'm nothis girlfriend.She's not my girlfriend.
Ok, ok, sheesh, I was only teasing.
So what do you want?
I need your helpfinding the Avatar.
Hm, doesn't sound too fun.
Does the end of the world sound like more fun?
[snarling]
Nyla?
[growls... Chomps]
Who's my little, mm...Snuffly-wuffly?
Whoa! [snarls]
Careful there.
Ok, so who's got somethingwith the Avatar's scent on it?
I have Aang's staff.
[sniffing]
[sniffing continues]
[groaning]
Well, what does that mean?
It means your friend's gone.
We know he's gone, that's why we're trying to find him.
No, I mean, he's gone,gone.
He doesn't exist.
[Momo chirping]
Where are we, Momo?
Maybe I'm in the spirit world?
But wait, you can see me.
We could both be in the spirit world.
Nope, my bending works.
Maybe if we climb to the top of the island,
we can figure out where we are.
What do you mean Aang doesn't exist?
Do you mean he's...
You know, dead?
Nope, we could find him if he were dead.
Ah, it's a real head scratcher.
See ya.
Toph: Helpful, real helpful.
Zuko: Wait, I have another idea.
There's only one other person in this world
who can help us face the Fire Lord.
I'll be right backwith a smell sample.
You saved youruncle's sweaty sandal?
[groaning] I think it's kind of sweet.
[sniffing]
Let's do this.
Zuko: Hey, wait up.
[groans]
Zuko: We're going to Ba Sing Se?
June: Your uncle's somewhere beyond the wall.
Nyla's getting twitchy, so he can't be too far.
Good luck.
Huh.
[Nyla growls]
It's been a long day.
Let's camp and start our search again at dawn.
[birds chirping]
Aang: It's a hexagon.
[Momo chirps]
It doesn't seem like normal rock.
It's not made of earth.
This is so strange.
I wish I had some help right now.
I wish I had Roku.
I dohave Roku.
[deep inhale]
[slow exhale]
You're right, Aang.
All the past Avatars...
All their experience and wisdom
is available to you,
if you look deep inside yourself.
So where am I, Roku?
What is this place?
I don't know, Aang.
But I see that you are lost in more ways than one right now.
I am.
I need to figure out what to do once I face the Fire Lord.
[snoring... sighs]
[snoring] Huh?
[Appa groaning]
Well, look who's here.
[laughing/snorting]
Everyone expects me totake the Fire Lord's life.
But I just don't know if I can do that.
In my life, I tried to be disciplined
and show restraint.
But it backfired
when Firelord Sozin took advantage of my restraint and mercy.
If I had been more decisive and acted sooner
I could have stopped Sozin
and stopped the war before it started.
I offer you this wisdom, Aang.
You must be decisive.
Toph: What's going on?
We're surroundedby old people.
Katara: Not just any old people.
...these are greatMasters and friends of ours.
Pakku.
It is respectful to bow to an old Master.
But how about a hug for your new grandfather?
That's so Ahh!exciting.
You and Gran Granmust be so happy to havefound each other again.
I made her a new betrothal necklace and everything.
Welcome to the family,Gramp Gramp.
You can still just call me Pakku.
How about... Grandpakku?
No.
And this was Aang's first firebending teacher.
Jeong Jeong.
Master Piandao.
Hello, Sokka.
Suki: So wait, how do you all know each other?
All old people know each other.
Don't you know that?
[laughing/snorting]
We're all part of the same ancient secret society.
A group that transcends the divisions of the Four Nations.
The Order of the White Lotus.
That's the one.
The White Lotus hasalways been about philosophy
and beauty and truth.
...but about a month ago
a call went out that we were needed for something important.
It came from a Grand Lotus, your uncle...
Iroh of the Fire Nation.
Well, that's who we're looking for.
Then we'll take you to him.
Wait, someone's missing from your group.
Someone very important.
Where's Momo?
He's gone...
And so is Aang.
Oh, well, so long as they have each other
I'm sure we have nothing to worry about.
Let's go.
[cackling]
[chirping]
Avatar Kiyoshi...
I need your wisdom.
In my day,
Chin the Conqueror threatened tothrow the world out of balance.
I stopped him,
and the world entered a great era of peace.
Aang: You didn't really kill Chin.
Technically, he fell to his own doom
because he was too stubborn to get out of the way.
Personally, I don't really see the difference.
But I assure you...
I would've done whatever it took to stop Chin.
I offer you this wisdom, Aang.
Only justice will bring peace.
I knew I shouldn't have asked Kiyoshi.
So Bumi, how did you end escaping your imprisonment in Omashu?
Escape? I didn't escape.
Everybody else escaped.
There I was, back in Omashu,
waiting for just the right moment.
I didn't know what or when
but I knew I'd know it when I knew it.
An eclipse.
That'll do it.
[labored groaning]
What do you think you're doing?
Huh!
Hah!
Taking back my city.
You've got no firepower
and it's payback time.
[strained groaning]
[cackling]
Wow, you took back your whole city all by yourself.
Bumi: So, what about you guys?
Did you do anything interesting
on the day of the eclipse?
Nah.No, not really.
I need to look deep inside myself.
I am Avatar Kuruk.
When I was young, I was always a...
"Go with the flow" kind of Avatar.
People seemed to work out their own problems
and there was peace and good times in the world.
But then, I lost the woman I loved to Koh...
The face stealer.
It was my fault.
If I had been more attentive and more active
I could've saved her.
Aang.. .
You must actively shape your own destiny
and the destiny of the world.
[bird chirps]
Bumi: Well, here we are.
Welcome to old people camp.
Where... where is he?
Your uncle's in there, Prince Zuko.
Katara: Are you ok?
No, I'm not ok.
My uncle hates me, I know it.
He loved me and supported mein every way he could,
and I still turned against him.
How can I even face him?
Zuko, you're sorry for what you did, right?
More sorry thanI've been about anythingin my entire life.
Then he'll forgive you, he will.
[takes breath]
Uncle?
[snoring]
[snoring continues]
Aang: All these past Avatars,
they keep telling me I'm gonna have to do it.
They don't get it.
[chirping] You're right.
Maybe an air nomad Avatar will understand where I'm coming from.
[chirping]
I know you can't really talk.
Pretending you can just helps me think.
[squawking]
I'm going to pretend I didn't pretend to hear that.
I am Avatar Yangchen, young airbender.
Avatar Yangchen...
The monks always taught me that all life is sacred.
Even the life of the tiniest spider fly caught in its own web.
Yes, all life is sacred.
I know, I'm even a vegetarian.
I've always tried to solve my problems by being quick or clever.
And I've only had to use violence for necessary defense.
And I've certainly never used it to take a life.
Avatar Aang...
I know that you are a gentle spirit
and the monks have taught you well.
But this isn't about you.
This is about the world.
But the monks taught methat I had to detachmyself from the world
so my spirit could be free.
Many great and wise air nomads have detached themselves
and achieved spiritual enlightenment.
But the Avatar can never do it
because your sole duty is tothe world.
Here is my wisdom for you:
Selfless duty calls you to sacrifice your own spiritual needs
and do whatever it takes to protect the world.
[Momo chirps]
I guess I don't have a choice, Momo.
I have to kill the Fire Lord.
[snoring]
[stretching groan]
Ahh...
Uncle?
I know you must have mixedfeelings about seeing me.
But I want you to know
I am so, sosorry, Uncle.
I am so sorry and ashamed of what I did.
I don't know how I can ever make it up to you, but I...
How can you forgive me so easily?
I thought you would be furious with me.
I was never angry with you.
I was sad, because I was afraid you'd lost your way.
Zuko: I did lose my way.
But you found it again.
And you did it by yourself.
And I am so happy you found your way here.
Zuko: It wasn't that hard, Uncle.
You have a pretty strong scent.
[squirrel clucks]
[loud yawn]
Wait...
...is it just me or are those mountains getting bigger?
[chirps]
[Momo chirps]
[chirps]
They're not getting larger, they're getting closer.
[chirps]
The whole island is moving.
[chirps]
[chirp-chirp-chirp]
[gasping/panting]
It's amazing, Momo.
The biggest animal in the world.
I've gotta swim around and find its face.
Uncle, you're the only person other than the Avatar
who can possibly defeat the Father Lord.
You mean the Fire Lord.
[sternly]: That's what I just said.
Hmm...
We need you to come with us.
No, Zuko, it won't turn out well.
You can beat him,
and we'll be there to help.
Even if I did defeat Ozai,
and I don't know that I could,
it will be the wrong way to end the war.
History will see it as just more senseless violence.
A brother killing a brother to grab power.
The only way for this war to end peacefully
is for the Avatar to defeat the Fire Lord.
And then...
Then would you come and take your rightful place on the throne?
No.
Someone newmust take the throne.
An idealist with a pure heart
and unquestionable honor.
It has to be you, Prince Zuko.
Unquestionable honor?
But I've made so many mistakes.
Yes, you have.
You've struggled, you've suffered.
But you have alwaysfollowed your own path.
You restored your own honor
and only you can restorethe honor of the Fire Nation.
I'll try, Uncle.
Well, what if Aangdoesn't come back?
Sozin's comet is arriving
and our destinies are upon us.
Aang will face the Fire Lord.
When I was a boy, I had a vision
that I would one day take Ba Sing Se.
Only now do I see that my destiny
is to take it back from the Fire Nation
so the Earth Kingdom can be free again.
That's why you gathered the members of the White Lotus.
Yes.
Zuko, you must return to the Fire Nation
so that when the Fire Lordfalls, you can assume the throne
and restore peace and order.
But Azula will be therewaiting for you.
I can handle Azula.
Not alone.
You'll need help.
You're right... Katara.
How would like to help meput Azula in her place?
It would be my pleasure.
Sokka: What about us?
What's our destiny, today?
What do youthink it is?
I think that...Even though we don'tknow where Aang is
we do need to do everything we can to stop the airship fleet.
And that means when Aangdoes face the Fire Lord,
we'll be right thereif he needs us.
Nothing runs fasterover land or swims quicker
than a giant eel hound.
The airship base is ona small island just offthe Earth Kingdom shore.
You should be ableto intercept the fleet
within a day's journey.
Thank you, Master.
Zuko: So if I'm gonna be Fire Lord after the war's over
what are you gonna do?
After I reconquer Ba Sing Se,
I'm going to reconquer my tea shop
and I'm going to play pai sho every day.
Katara: Goodbye General Iroh.
Iroh: Goodbye, everyone.
Today destiny is our friend.
I know it.
[growls]
[groans]
[Momo chirping]
[takes deep breath]
A lion turtle.
Maybe you can help me.
Everyone, even my own past lives
are expecting me to end someone's life.
But I don't know if I can do it.
Lion Turtle: The true mind can weather
all the lies and illusions without being lost.
The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being hard.
Since beginning this time,
darkness thrives in the void
but always yields to purify right.
...wait for him.
He will come.
It's time for this world to end in fire
and for a new world to be born from the ashes.
[appa grunts]
Zuko, don't worry.
We can take Azula.
I'm not worried about her, I'm worried about Aang.
What if he doesn't have the guts to take out my father?
What if he loses?
Aang won't lose.
He's gonna come back.
He has to.
Azula: What am I holding?
A cherry pit, princess.
Correct, and what day is this?
It is the day of your coronation.
Azula: Yes, it is.
So, please, tell me why, on the most important day of my life
you've decided to leave a pit in my cherry.
It wasn't a decision, it was just a small mistake.
Small?
Do you realize what could have happened if I hadn't sensed the pit in time?
I supposed you could've choked?
Yes.
Then you understand the severity of your crime.
I understand, princess.
Please forgive me.
Oh, very well.
Since it is a special day, I will show mercy.
You are banished, leave this palace immediately.
What are you all looking at?
I have two feet that need scrubbing.
And make sure you get in-between the toes.
I won't have my first day as Fire Lord marred by poor foot hygiene.
Suki: It's weird to say, but the comet actually looks beautiful.
Too bad the Fire Lord's about touse it to destroy the world.
[creature grunting]
Sokka: We're too late, the fleet's already taking off.
Toph: Then we're taking off, too.
Where's the closest airship?
It's right-- augh!
[grunts]
Man: You sent for us, Princess?
Is everything all right?
Actually, everything's notall right.
Do you know how long it took you to get here?
Uh, a few minutes, I guess.
Azula: Five, to be precise.
In which time an assassin could have snuck in
done away with me and been on his merry way.
Man: My apologies, Princess.
Is this how you plan to treat your new Fire Lord?
With tardiness and disloyalty?
The Dai Li would never betray you.
And I'm sure that's just what you told long feng
before you turned against him and joined me.
You're all banished.
But...
Azula: Goodbye.
Please send in the next group on your way out.
Shh.
[knock at door]
[grunts]
Augh.
[grunts]
[crashing noise]
That's how it's done.
Sokka: Good work, Toph.
Time to takecontrol of the ship.
Take the wheel.
That's a great idea, let the blind girl steer the giant airship.
I was talking to Suki.
That would make a lot more sense.
What are we gonna do about the rest of the crew?
Take us down closer to the water.
I've got an idea.
[clears throat]
Attention, crew,this is your captain speaking.
Everyone, please report tothe bomb bay immediately
for hotcakes and sweet cream.
We have a very specialbirthday to celebrate.
Hey, I'm Qin Lee.
I work up in communications.
Oh, hi.
I work down in the engine room.
That's probably why we've never met before.
Big airship, you know?
[chuckles] Yup.
So do you know whosebirthday it is?
I can't believe the captain remembered my birthday.
He really doescare.
[screaming]
[gasps]
Happy birthday.
Firelord Ozai, here we come.
[♪...]
Woman: Azula, we heard what happened.
Why have you banished all your servants?
All your Dai Li agents?
And the imperial firebenders?
None of them could be trusted.
Sooner or later, they all would've betrayed me.
Just like Mai and Ty Lee did.
Azula, we are concerned for you and your well-being.
My father asked you to come hereand talk to me, didn't he?
He thinks I can't handle the responsibility of being Fire Lord.
But I will be the greatest leader in Fire Nation history.
I'm sure you will.
But considering everythingthat's happened today...
Perhaps it's best if you postpone your coronation.
What?!
Which one of you just said that?
What a shame.
There's only one way to resolve this.
You two must duel each other.
I order you to fight an agni kai.
But... We're not firebenders.
All right, fine.
Lo, you're banished.
Li, you can stay.
But I'm Li, so who's banished?
Ba Sing Se, the order of the white lotus is here.
Here to set you free.
Only once every 100 years can a firebender experience this kind of power.
[inhales]
[exhales]
[breathing deeply]
Ah!
[growls]
All right, hair.
It's time to face your doom.
Woman: What a shame, you always had such beautiful hair.
What are you doing here?
I didn't want to missmy own daughter's coronation.
Don't pretend to act proud.
I know what you really think of me.
You think I'm a monster.
I think you're confused.
All your life, you've usedfear to control people.
Like your friendsMai and Ty Lee.
But what choice do I have?
Trust is for fools.
Fear is the only reliable way.
Even you fear me.
No, I love you, Azula, I do.
[screams]
[cries]
[breathes deeply]
We're not gonnacatch up to him in time.
No.
[birds screeching]
[chirps]
Momo, time for you to go.
[purrs]
[breathes deeply]
What just happened?
It's Aang... He's back!
[♪...]
Ozai: After generations of FireLords failed to find you,
now the universe delivers you to me
as an act of providence.
Please listen to me.
We don't have to fight.
Youhave the power to end ithere and stop what you're doing.
You are right.
I do have the power.
I have all the power in the world!
Go, Aang!
Airbending slice.
Shouldn't we be helping him?
The Fire Lord is Aang's fight.
We need to stay focused onstopping that fleet fromburning down the Earth Kingdom.
And how do we do that, captain boomerang?
I can't see outside of this floating hunk of metal.
Airship-slice!
Toph: Whoa.
That's a lot of fire, isn't it?
It's gonna be a rough ride.
We need to get to the top of this thing, fast.
Then what?
Watch each other's backs,and if we make it that far...
I'll let you know.
[grunts]
[Suki screams]
Suki!
Suki: I'm ok, just finish the mission.
No.
Sokka, I think we've gotta...
Sokka and Toph: Jump!
Ahh!
[grunting]
By decree of Phoenix King Ozai,
I now crown you Fire Lord...
What are you waiting for?
Do it.
[Appa grunts]
Sorry, but you're not going to become Fire Lord today.
I am.
[laughs] You're hilarious.
And you're going down.
Wait.
You want to be Fire Lord?
Fine, let's settle this.
Just you and me, brother.
The showdown that was always meant to be, agni kai.
You're on.
What are you doing?
She's playing you.
She knows she can'ttake us both, so she'strying to separate us.
I know, but I can take her this time.
Katara: But even you admitted to your uncle
that you would need help facing Azula.
Zuko: There's something off about her.
I can't explain it, but she's slipping.
And this way, no one else has to get hurt.
I'm sorry it has to end this way, brother.
No, you're not.
[grunting]
[gasps]
[♪...]
[breathing heavily]
[Azula grunts]
[breathing heavily]
Zuko: No lightning today?
What's the matter, afraid I'll redirect it?
Oh, I'll show you lightning.
[♪...]
No...
[♪...]
[Zuko groans]
Zuko!
[laughing]
[gasps and grunts]
[Ozai laughs]
You're weak.
Just like the rest of your people.
They did not deserve to exist in this world.
In myworld.
Prepare to join them.
Prepare to die!
[♪...]
Ozai: Come on out, Avatar.
You can't hide in there forever.
Sokka: Toph, metalbend the rudders so it's jammed in a turning position.
The ship will spiral and slam into the others.
Got it.
[grunts]
[all grunt]
Have I ever mentionedhow sweet it is that youinvented metalbending?
You could stand to mention it more.
[both screaming]
[screaming...]
[screaming continues]
[screaming]
[both grunting]
My leg.
Hang on, Toph.
Aye-aye, captain.
[grunts]
[Sokka grunts, firebender screams]
Bye, space-sword.
[grunts] I don't think boomerang's coming back, toph.
It looks likethis is the end.
[gasping]
[both grunting]
How did that happen?
Did boomerang come back?
No, Suki did.
[screams]
Ozai: Come on out, little boy.
You're about to be... [gasps]
[grunting]
[grunts]
[roars]
[grunts and strains]
[gasps]
[grunts]
[men groaning]
[Ozai grunts]
[screams]
[groans]
[gasps]
[panting]
[gasps]
[Azula laughs]
[grunts]
I'd really rather our family physician
look after little Zu-Zu, if you don't mind.
Zu-Zu, you don't look so good.
[screams]
[grunts]
Azula: There you are, filthy peasant.
[exhales]
[panting and coughing]
[grunting]
[groaning and grunting]
[groaning]
Thank you, Katara.
I think I'm the one who should be thanking you.
[panting]
[screaming...]
[hysterical crying]
[grunting and screaming]
[sobbing]
[grunts]
[screams]
[grunts]
[gasps]
[gasps and screams]
[Aang with all Avatar's voices]: Firelord Ozai.
You and your forefathers have devastated the balance of this world.
And now you shall pay the ultimate price.
[groans]
No, I'm not gonna end it like this.
Even with all the power in the world...
You are still weak.
[voices chant indistinctly...]
Lion Turtle: In the era before the Avatar...
We bent not the elements
but the energy within ourselves.
[rumbling...]
Lion Turtle: To bend another's energy...
Your own spirit must be unbendable
or you will be corrupted and destroyed.
[♪...]
[grunts]
[groans] What? What did you do to me?
I took away your firebending.
You can't use it to hurt or threaten anyone else ever again.
[breathes deeply]
[♪...]
[chirping]
[♪...]
You did it!
You should've seen yourself, it was amazing!
You were all like...
[imitates explosions]
And the Fire Lord was all like...
[groaning and gagging]
So did you, you know...
Finish the job?
I'm still alive.
I learned there was another way
to defeat himand restore balance.
I took his bending away.
Wow, who taught you that?
A giant Lion Turtle.
You have the craziest adventures when you disappear.
Well, look at you, buster.
Now that your firebending's gone
I guess we should call you the loser Lord.
I am the Phoenix King.
[groans... Thud]
Toph: Oh, sorry, didn't mean to offend you-
Phoenix King of getting his butt whooped.
Yeah, or howabout king of the...
guys who... don't win?
Leave the nicknames to us, honey.
[birds singing]
[grunts]
Mai: You need some help with that?
Mai, you're ok.
They let you out of prison?
My uncle pulled some strings.
And it doesn't hurtwhen the new Fire Lordis your boyfriend.
So does this mean you don't hate me anymore?
I think it means...
I actually kind of like you.
But don't ever break up with me again.
[general conversation]
Dad! Dad!
I heard what you two did.
I am the proudest father in the world.
And your mother would be proud, too.
Sokka: There's my favorite warriors.
I have to admit, I kind of missed the face paint.
So how's it feel to be back in uniform again?
It feels great.
Careful, Suki.
Ty Lee's pretending to be a Kyoshi warrior again.
It's ok,she's one of us now.
[gasps and stammers]
Yeah, the girls and I really bonded in prison.
And after a few qi-blocking lessons
they said I could join their group.
We're gonna be best friends forever.
I can't believe a year ago, my purpose in life was hunting you down.
And now...
And now we're friends.
Yeah, we arefriends.
I can't believe a year ago
I was still frozen in a block of ice.
The world's so different now.
And it's gonna be even more different...
We'll rebuild it together.
[cheering]
Please...
The real hero is the Avatar.
[cheering...]
Zuko: Today, this war is finally over.
[cheering]
I promised my uncle that I would restore the honor of the Fire Nation.
And I will.
The road ahead of us is challenging.
A hundred years of fighting has left the world scarred and divided.
But with the Avatar's help, we can get it back on the right path
and begin a new era of love and peace.
All hail Firelord Zuko.
[cheering...]
I should count myself lucky.
The new Fire Lord has graced me with his presence in my lowly prison cell.
You should count yourself lucky that the Avatar spared your life.
[grunts]
Zuko: Banishing me was the best thing you could have done for my life.
It put me on the right path.
Perhaps your time in here can do the same for you.
Why are you reallyhere?
Zuko: Because you're going to tell me something.
Where is my mother?
[♪...]
[yells]
[grunts]
[laughing]
[Appa groans]
Zuko, stop moving.
I'm trying to capture the moment.
I wanted to do a painting, so we always remember the good times together.
That's very thoughtful of you, Sokka.
Wait, why did you give me Momo's ears?
Sokka: Those are your hair loopies.
At least you don'tlook like a boar-cupine.
My hair is not that spiky.
Mai: I look like a man.
Suki: And why did you paint me firebending?
I thought it looked more exciting that way.
[chirps]
Oh, you think you can do a better job, Momo?
[Momo chirps]
Iroh: Hey, my belly's not that big anymore.
I really trimmed down.
Toph: Well, I think you all look perfect.
[all laughing]
