"KATARA:" "Water." "Earth." "Fire." "Air." "Long ago, the four nations lived together 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." "A hundred 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." "( groans )" "But I believe Aang can save the world." "( screeches )" "Absolutely not." "The Yu Yan archers stay here." "Your request is denied, Commander Zhao." "Colonel Shinu, please reconsider." "Their precision is legendary." "The Yu Yan can pin a fly to a tree from 100 yards away... without killing it." "You're wasting their talents using them as mere security guards." "I can do whatever I want with their talents." "They're my archers, and what I say goes." "But my search for the Avatar is..." "Is nothing but a vanity project." "We're fighting a real war here and I need every man I've got, Commander." "But..." "That's final." "I don't want to hear another word about it." "( grunts )" "( bird caws )" "News from Fire Lord Ozai?" "It appears I've been promoted to admiral." "My request is now an order." "( coughing )" "( coughs )" "This should bring your fever down." "You know what I love about Appa the most?" "His sense of humor." "That's nice." "I'll tell him." "( growls )" "( chuckles )" "Classic Appa." "How's Sokka doing?" "Not so good." "Being out in that storm really did a number on him." "( shuddering )" "I couldn't find any gingerroot for the tea, but I found a map." "There's an herbalists' institute on the top of that mountain." "We could probably find a cure for Sokka there." "Aang, he's in no condition to travel." "Sokka just needs more rest." "I'm sure he'll be better by tomorrow." "( coughs )" "( coughing )" "Not you, too." "Relax, it was just a little cough." "I'm fi... ( coughs )" "( groans )" "That's how Sokka started yesterday." "Now look at him, he thinks he's an Earthbender." "Take that, you rock." "A few more hours and you'll be talking nonsense, too." "I'm going to find some medicine." "( thunder crashes ) Uh... maybe it's safer if I go on foot." "Keep an eye on him, guys." "( growls )" "( cackles )" "You guys are killing me!" "We haven't been able to pick up the Avatar's trail since the storm." "But if we continue heading northeast..." "ZUKO:" "What do they want?" "Perhaps a sporting game of Pai Cho." "The hunt for the Avatar has been given prime importance." "All information regarding the Avatar must be reported directly to Admiral Zhao." "Zhao has been promoted?" "Well, good for him." "I've got nothing to report to Zhao." "Now get off my ship and let us pass." "Admiral Zhao is not allowing ships in or out of this area." "Off my ship!" "Excellent." "I take the pot." "But you are all improving." "I'm certain you will win if we play again." "Says here that the Avatar can create tornadoes and run faster than the wind." "Pretty amazing." "Ah, that's just a bunch of Fire Lord propaganda." "There's no way that's true." "( blowing horn )" "( note echoing )" "Katara, please... water." "Listen carefully, Momo." "I need you to take this to the river and fill it with water." "( cooing )" "( speaking nonsensically )" "Got it?" "( purrs )" "( purring )" "( panting )" "( cat meows )" "Hello!" "I'm sorry to barge in like this, but I need some medicine for my friends." "They have fevers, and they've been coughing, and..." "Settle down, young man." "Your friends are going to be fine." "I've been up here for over 40 years, you know." "Used to be others, but they all left years ago." "Now it's just me and Miyuki." "( purring )" "That's nice." "Wounded Earth Kingdom troops still come by now and again, brave boys." "And thanks to my remedies, they always leave in better shape than when they arrived." "That's nice;" "are you almost done?" "Hold on, I just need to add one last ingredient." "No... sandalwood...." "Oh, let's... no, that won't do." "Banana leaf and... nope." "Gingerroot, uh-uh." "Oh, where is that pesky little plant?" "( groans )" "Is everything okay?" "It's been almost an hour, and you haven't given the men an order." "I don't care what they do." "Don't give up hope yet." "You can still find the Avatar before Zhao." "How, Uncle?" "With Zhao's resources, it's just a matter of time before he captures the Avatar." "My honor, my throne, my country" "I'm about to lose them all." "Oh, here's what I was looking for... ( chuckling ):" "plum blossom." "Finally." "Thanks for all your help." "Hands off!" "Ow!" "What do you think you're doing?" "Taking the cure to my friends." "( laughs ) This isn't a cure." "It's Miyuki's dinner." "Plum blossom is her favorite." "What about my friends?" "Well, all they need is some frozen wood frogs." "There's plenty of them down in the valley swamp." "What am I supposed to do with frozen frogs?" "Why, suck on them, of course." "Suck on them?" "!" "The frog skin excretes a substance that'll cure your friends, but make sure you get plenty." "Once those little critters thaw out, they're useless." "You're insane, aren't you?" "That's right." "Well, don't stand there all day." "Go!" "( grunts ) Whoa!" "( arrows whizzing in distance )" "Uh, I think you dropped this." "( grunting )" "( yelling )" "( yells )" "( Aang yelling )" "( grunting )" "( yelling, grunting )" "( grunting )" "( yelling )" "( gasps )" "A frog!" "( gasps )" "( grunts )" "( yells )" "( yells )" "( grunting )" "( door opens )" "So this is the great Avatar, master of all the elements." "I don't know how you've managed to elude the Fire Nation for 100 years, but your little game of hide-and-seek is over." "I've never hidden from you." "Untie me, and I'll fight you right now!" "Uh, no." "Tell me, how does it feel to be the only Airbender left?" "Do you miss your people?" "Oh, don't worry, you won't be killed like they were." "See, if you die, you'll just be reborn, and the Fire Nation will have to begin its search for the Avatar all over again, so I'll keep you alive..." "but just barely." "( grunts )" "Blow all the wind you want." "Your situation is futile." "There is no escaping this fortress, and no one is coming to rescue you." "( coughing )" "Water." "Momo should be back any minute." "( Momo cooing )" "No, Momo." "Water." "Wa... ter." "Aang, what in the world is taking you so long?" "( growling )" "All clear." "All clear." "Go on in." "We are the sons and daughters of fire." "The superior element." "Until today, only one thing stood in our path to victory-- the Avatar!" "I am here to tell you that he is now my prisoner!" "( soldiers cheering )" "This is the year Sozen's Comet returns to grant us its power." "( soldiers cheering )" "This is the year the Fire Nation breaks through the walls of Ba Sing Se and burns the city to the ground!" "( soldiers cheering )" "( grunting )" "( breathing heavily )" "What?" "No!" "Don't leave, frogs." "My friends are sick, and they need you." "Please go back to being frozen."

"( Momo purring )" "How many times do I have to tell you, Momo?" "We need water." "Wa... ter." "Oh, forget it." "Aang, please hurry." "Who's this Aang kid you keep talking about, Your Highness?" "I want a full transcription of my speech sent to the Fire Lord, along with glowing testimonials from all of the ranking officers present." "And... ( groaning ) ( groaning )" "( croaks )" "Sir, shall I hold off sending that speech to the Fire Lord?" "( alarm bell clangs, siren blares )" "GUARD:" "There!" "On the wall!"

"Now!" "How could you let them go?" "A situation like this requires... precision." "Do you have a clear shot?" "Knock out the thief." "I'll deliver him to the Fire Lord, along with the Avatar."

"I miss all the friends I used to hang out with." "Before the war started," "I used to always visit my friend Kuzon." "The two of us, we'd get in and out of so much trouble together." "He was one of the best friends I ever had." "And he was from the Fire Nation, just like you." "If we knew each other back then, do you think we could have been friends, too?" "( yells )" "Where have you been, Prince Zuko?" "You missed music night." "Lieutenant Jee sang a stirring love song." "I'm going to bed." "No disturbances." "( playing horn )" "( surprised chirp )" "Suck on these." "They'll make you feel better." "( sighs )" "Aang, how was your trip?" "Did you make any new friends?" "No, I don't think I did." "Mm."
