Asami, did you know Korra likes Mako?
[shrieking]
Oh, uh... No, I wasn't completely aware of that.
Hey!
- Run along, Ikki. - Oh...
[growling]
Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?
It looks like we're there. I know it, this is very familiar!
Are we here yet? Are we here yet?
- Ooh, please tell me we're here. - Yes, Ikki.
As I've been telling you for the last fifteen minutes, we are finally here.
Wee!
[giggling]
Hello, Mother.
I can't tell you how happy I am to see you.
Please help me.
[laughing]
Unhand me, strange woman!
That's your grandmother, Meelo.
It's so good to see all of you.
Gran Gran, I've been reading all about your old adventures.
I've been dying to ask you what happened to Zuko's mom?
Well, Jinora, it's an incredible tale--
Gran Gran, you look old. How old are you?
And why is it so cold in the South Pole?
Can we make a campfire and all huddle around it
and tell scary stories and make snowmen?
And then can you make the snowmen move with waterbending and chase us?
Wouldn't that be fun, huh? Wouldn't it?
Pema, let me help you.
Careful now. Careful.
Stop doting on me. I'm not helpless, I'm just pregnant.
The baby's strong.
I see another airbender in your future.
All I want is one child like me,
a nice non-bender who doesn't blast wind in my face every five seconds!
Mommy, look! I'm a snowbender!
Were Tenzin and his siblings this crazy when they were kids?
Kya and Bumi certainly were,
but Tenzin has always been... rather serious.
Mother, please.
Korra's gonna airbend! Korra's gonna airbend!
What is that contraption?
A time-honored tool that teaches the most fundamental aspect of airbending.
Jinora, would you like to explain this exercise?
The goal is to weave your way through the gates
and make it to the other side without touching them.
Seems easy enough.
Jinora forgot to say you have to make it through while the gates are spinning.
The key is to be like the leaf.
Flow with the movement of the gates.
Jinora will demonstrate.
Airbending is all about spiral movements.
When you meet resistance,
you must be able to switch direction at a moment's notice.
Let's do this.
[grunting]
Don't force your way through!
Dance! Dance like the wind!
Be the leaf.
[grunting]
[sigh]
Please, Korra, look at Meelo.
He's able to meditate peacefully.
Actually, I think he's asleep.
What?!
Well, at least he has the relaxing part down.
Okay, everyone here?
Wait... where's Korra?
Honestly, Pema, I'm at my wit's end with that girl.
I... I don't know how to get through to her!
Dear, the best thing you can do right now is to give Korra some space.
You must promise me that your teenage years won't be like this.
I will make no such promises.
Good, light on your feet!
Ooh, he's cute.
Korra, is that the handsome firebender boy that drives you crazy?
Does he drive you crazy in a bad way?
Or does he drive you crazy like you like him?
Oh, hey, Mako.
So, how's it going with the tall, dreamy firebender boy?
You've been spending a lot of time together lately.
Oh, yeah!
Tell us all about the magical romance.
What? Hah! Listen to you two!
I'm not interested in Mako or any romantic stuff.
Besides he's all into that prissy, beautiful, elegant, rich girl...
but let's just pretend for a second I am interested in him.
What would I do?
Ooh! I just read a historical saga where the heroine fell in love
with the enemy general's son, who's supposed to marry the princess.
- You should do what she did! - Tell me!
She rode a dragon into battle and burned down the entire country.
Then she jumped into a volcano. It was so romantic!
- Uh... - No, no, no!
The best way to win a boy's heart is to brew a love potion
of rainbows and sunsets that makes true lovers sprout wings and fly
into a magical castle in the sky, where they get married and eat clouds
with spoons and use stars as ice cubes in their moonlight punch.
Forever and ever and ever!
The volcano is starting to make more sense to me now.
[laughing]
Oh, hey, Pema.
Uh, how long were you standing there?
[chuckling]
Long enough.
But trust me, I know what you're going through.
Years ago I was in the exact same situation, with Tenzin.
Daddy was in love with someone else before you?
- That's right. - So what did you do?
Well, for the longest time, I did nothing.
I was so shy and scared of rejection,
but watching my soulmate spend his life with the wrong woman became too painful.
So I hung my chin out there and I confessed my love to Tenzin.
And the rest is history.
[together] Wow!
You're finally here!
Welcome to Air Temple Island!
Your new home!
Yes, welcome to my domain!
Well, aren't you sweet, little monk child?
What's that fuzzy creature?
That is a fire ferret, an arboreal mammal
common to the bamboo forests of the central Earth Kingdom.
He's cute!
[hissing]
[giggling]
Yip, yip! Fly, sky bison, fly!
Thanks for sending the air acolytes to help us with the move.
Yes, they've been amazing.
Such tireless workers!
Oh, thought you were only bringing a few things.
Trust me, it could have been worse.
No problem. Everyone here wants you guys to feel welcome.
[squeaking]
[humming]
You're pretty, can I have some of your hair?
Looks like I have some competition.
And now for the grand tour!
The flying bison sleep in those caves down there,
and that's the temple grandpa Aang built,
and that's the greenhouse where we grow the vegetables we eat!
I have a couple questions.
Is this an all-vegetarian island?
Is that where you train airbending?
Do we have to wear air acolyte clothes?
Do we each get our own sky bison?
And final question, how many trees are on this island?
Yes, yes, no, no, ten thousand five hundred and fifty-two.
So where are we going to be staying?
You're a boy, boys have to stay on the boy side.
I'd be happy to show you to the men's dormitory.
I'm a boy!
Meelo, why don't you go with the boys, too?
We shall meet again soon, beautiful woman.
Tonight, I rid the world of airbending.
Forever.
Amon, let them go!
You're welcome to come down here and try to stop me.
He's trying to bait you.
I don't care, we have to save them!
The Avatar needs to be reminded of the power I possess.
[thunder]
[grunting]
- Where are Pema and the baby? - In prison.
- Beifong? - I don't know.
[grunting]
Follow me, kids!
Get them out of here, we'll create a diversion.
Let's go get your mother and the baby.
Prison break!
You saved Republic City.
But Amon got away.
Yay! Uncle Bumi's here!
Whaa-hoo!
Great, now I have to entertain my brother.
