All language subtitles for The Legend of Korra S04E11 - Kuviras Gambit.en

Earth.

Fire.

Air.

Water.

Only the Avatar can
master all four elements

and bring balance to the world.

Bolin, Opal, and Lin rescued the Beifongs

and Zhu Li from Kuvira.

Now they're racing to Republic City

to alert everyone about the Earth Empire's

imminent attack. Meanwhile,

Korra and team Avatar
have been preparing for

just such an event.

Prince Wu is leading an evacuation effort

while Asami and Varrick are
creating flying mecha-suits.

But with Kuvira planning
to strike in only two weeks,

will they be ready in time?

Today we stand on the precipice of history.

For the past three years,
we've fought side by side

to unite the Earth Empire

and we've proven that no
one can stand in our way.

Not even the Avatar.

But our mission is not yet complete.

There is a grave injustice
that must be corrected.

As you all know, after
the hundred year war,

Avatar Aang, along with fire Lord Zuko

stole Earth Empire land and
formed the United Republic.

This land belongs to the
people of the Earth Empire

and it's time to take it back.

Republic City will be ours!

All hail the Great Uniter!

Are you ready to show the world

what a true super power looks like?

Yes. I'm honored to march
into the city by your side.

I love you, Kuvira.

I never could've done
this without your help.

After we claim victory,
we can finally get married

and rule our empire together.

- How's the evacuation coming?
- Could be better.

At this point we've evacuated
almost... 18 families.

Only 18? There are millions
of people in this city!

I said it could be better.

The problem is it's a voluntary evacuation

and there aren't many volunteers.

They just don't feel like they're in any

immediate danger.

Guys! Good! You're all here.

What's with you interrupting
my important meetings

all the time?

Su!

What are you... you're okay!

I'm so sorry about Zaofu.

How did you escape?

Opal, Beifong, and I rescued everyone

but we had a run in with Kuvira.

We saw her super spirit weapon up close.

Like, really close. Way too close.

Is she going to use it
against Republic City?

Yes. I found out she's
going to attack in two weeks.

Oh! And Zhu Li is on our side now.

Actually, she never really switched sides.

And I'm just gonna let her
explain the whole thing,

Zhu Li?

I pretended to be loyal
to Kuvira so I could

sabotage her weapon.

It didn't work, but I did overhear

her plans to attack.

I knew she wouldn't stop at Zaofu.

My guess is, she's coming by rail.

It's the only way she
can transport that weapon.

Then we'll cut the rail lines.

I agree. But let's get as many citizens

evacuated before we do.

Put out the announcement.

The evacuation is now mandatory.

We're on it.

Don't worry, Mr. President.

I won't let Kuvira take our city.

Weld hotter! Tighten tighter!

The President said we only have two weeks

to get these hummingbirds humming!

Varrick, good, you're here.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

What is it? I'm busy

inspiring my workers.

Well, I went to Zaofu

and saved Su and her family...

And guess who else we found... Ha!

Zhu Li.

Now, isn't there something

you wanted to say to her?

Hmm?

Please, let me go first.

I know I said a lot of
terrible things about you

in front of Kuvira,

but I need you to know,
I didn't mean one word.

When you were being taken
away, I thought my only chance

to save you was to join her.

But everyday I hoped for
the chance to see you again

and tell you the truth.

Varrick, you mean the world to me,

and I'm sorry if I hurt you in any way.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

Apology accepted!

Now be a good assistant
and man the assembly line!

No! I am not your assistant anymore!

If you want me around,

you need to start
treating me like an equal.

We're patched in on the
emergency broadcast line.

You're going out to
every radio in the city.

Attention citizens of Republic City,

this is not a test.

An attack on our city is imminent.

President Raiko has ordered
a mandatory evacuation

for all citizens.

Please find your evacuation handbooks

and turn to sub-section one dash two six.

There you will find initial
instructions for your area.

For example, if you live
in northwest-vector-one

report to your primary meeting location

which would be at the eastern entrance

of the Southern water tribe library.

There, you will choose
a leader as specified in

section one dash two eight.

Uh, chief, we're getting confused calls

from all over the city. I
think Mako's starting a panic.

What's confusing? I'm giving
very specific instructions.

Great, this is just what we need.

I got this.

Hello, everyone. This is Prince Wu.

Now I know you're all a little scared.

Believe me, I know what
it's like to be afraid.

I used to not be able to go
to the bathroom by myself.

But if we let that fear control us,

none of us will ever be
able to go to the bathroom,

and then we all lose.

But the people of Republic City
aren't losers, we're winners!

Winners that are going
to get out of this city

in a calm and orderly fashion.

So I want you to grab your family,

grab your neighbor,

grab that guy down the street

you don't know very well

and head to the nearest bus, train,

or ferry station.

We're going to get you out of here,

safe and sound.

Good job, kid.

You might not make such
a bad king after all.

Rohan's with the acolytes.

They have the boat ready to leave.

Why aren't you all packed yet?

The kids and I have been talking

and we decided we wanna stay.

This is our city, and it's going to need

all the help it can get.

Yeah! Only a coward flees his fate.

Thank you.

I'm sure Prince Wu could use
your help with the evacuation.

And you three can help the other airbenders

keep an eye on the earth
empire troops from above.

Kuvira will rue the day
she messed with Meelo!

I still don't like having to
abandon my office and the city.

Air temple island is the ideal location

for your base of operations.

And you'll be safe here.

There's something we
need to discuss with you.

- What is it?
- The four of us

have been talking and...

We want to take out Kuvira's spirit weapon

before it gets too close to the city.

That sounds like a risk
we don't need to take.

The evacuation is on schedule

and General Iroh is
getting his army in place.

I know Iroh can go toe
to toe with Kuvira's army,

but that weapon... it's too powerful!

It can destroy the city!

We can't let it get to our doorstep.

We'll sneak behind enemy
lines and disable the weapon.

If it works, it'll even the playing field.

But if you get caught...

It's worth the risk.

I agree, and it might be our only shot

at preventing an all out war.

Good luck. We'll head out tonight.

There's something out there.

It's Kuvira's army! They're a week early!

Get the commander immediately,
and radio Republic City!

Guys, I see something. Down there!

- Is that?
- Kuvira.

She's already crossed into
United Republic territory.

She's a week early.

This doesn't make sense.

There aren't any train tracks this way.

How are they transporting
that super weapon of theirs?

Apparently on a giant mecha-suit.

Did you know Kuvira
was building that thing?

Oh, did I forget to mention it?

No! Of course I didn't know!

There's a flying bison up ahead.

The Avatar...

I know what happens next!

We gotta get outta here now!

Now!

Should we go after them?

They're going to warn Republic City.

Let them.

No one can stop us.

Korra, are you all right?

Why are you back so soon?

It's Kuvira. Our Intel was wrong.

She must've know Zhu
Li had the information.

What are you trying to say?

Kuvira's army is only a few hours away.

No, they can't be... We're not ready.

And that spirit weapon of hers

is attached to a giant mecha-suit.

It's over 25 stories tall.

Get General Iroh on the line and tell him

the attack is happening today.

We need to lock down this city.

Pema, find Wu and get
the remaining citizens

to safety immediately.

We can't have innocent lives in jeopardy.

- What should we do?
- Let's go to my factory.

Maybe we can get a few
of those hummingbird suits

up and running.

We're coming with you.

I'll head to the front
lines and help General Iroh.

Kuvira this is President Raiko.

I order you to stand down.

Turn you army around and leave.

You're in no position to give orders.

Stand down or we will attack.

I don't think you understand
the power I possess.

Let me make it clear.

This is exactly why I didn't
want to build that weapon!

Mr. President, do I have
your order to engage?

You have three seconds
or I wipe out your army.

I have no choice.

Time's up.

Stop. We surrender.

Republic City is yours.

Good. Turn your army and the Avatar

over to me and give Baatar your location.

He'll present you with our terms.

I'm not surrendering!

Get back to the city before she sees you.

And Korra, find a way to beat that thing.

I will.

We've done it Kuvira.

And I just got word that President Raiko

is on air temple island.
I'm heading there now.

Raiko surrendered.

It's down to us now.

How are we supposed to fight

an entire army,

a mecha-giant,

and that crazy weapon?

We can't fight it,

but maybe we can cripple it. Zhu Li,

when you were spying on Kuvira,
did you learn anything about

that metal monster.

I had no idea they were even building it.

Guess Baatar Jr. is a better
inventor than I thought.

Don't tell him I said that.

That's it!

Baatar Jr. built it...

He'll know how to take it down.

I say we capture him and get him to talk.

Hmm...

I know it's a long shot, but
it's the only chance we have

and if we don't... Korra. I'm in.

We'll need a stealth team of
airbenders to get in and out

of Baatar's airship unnoticed.

Tenzin, Bumi, Jinora, Kai...

Let's get moving.

What about me?

Sorry buddy, but this mission counts on

everyone being as silent as possible.

And your farts are just
too much of a wild card.

I can be quiet!

Okay. Point taken.

Is everyone ready?

You've made a terrible mistake.

Once Kuvira finds out I'm
missing, you're all done for.

That's why before she finds out,

you're going to tell us how
to stop that mecha-giant,

or else...

Or else what?

You won't hurt me.

I know an empty threat when I see one.

Was this you best idea?

You've lost, only you
haven't accepted it yet.

Let me talk to him.

- Are you sure?
- Check the engine room.

What's going on?

Is everything all right?

Just a minute, sir.

I'm telling you, I looked everywhere.

All right, enough whispering.

I'm ready to discuss the
terms of the surrender

with Baatar Jr.

Where is he? Uh...

I'm not really sure.

- Baatar...
- If you think I'm going

to spill all my secrets to you, mother,

you're sadly mistaken.

Why are you doing this?

I know you set out to help better the world

but this is madness!

It's madness to let
others take what's yours

and accept it blindly.

The United Republic belongs to us.

And we're taking it back.

But at what cost?

How many people have to lose their lives

before Kuvira is satisfied?

It doesn't have to cost any lives

if you would all just surrender.

All that Kuvira and I want
is a united Earth Empire.

I don't know what I did to hurt you,

but whatever it was, I'm sorry.

When you left Zaofu, it broke my heart.

And our family has never
been the same since.

Please, Baatar.

Stop all of this and come home.

We want you back with us.

Kuvira is my family now.

We're going about this all wrong.

You're right, I'm not
going to physically hurt you

if you don't talk. But
there is something I can do

that will be even more painful.

I will take away the one
thing you care for the most...

Kuvira.

What do you mean?

Kuvira might win.

She might chase us out of the city.

But you won't be around
to enjoy the victory.

Because wherever I run, I'll take you.

I'm going to make it my
life's mission to never let you

see the one you love again.

Is taking the city worth
losing Kuvira forever?

- You can't.
- I will.

Unless you convince Kuvira to back off.

You two will still have the Earth Empire,

just leave the United Republic alone.

It's Kuvira. She wants to talk to Baatar.

What should I tell her?

For goodness sake, give me that radio.

Let me talk to her.

Kuvira, this is Raiko.

What kind of game are you playing?

You told me you would send
Baatar over with your terms,

and then he doesn't show.

What do you mean he didn't show?

According to your people,
he's not on the airship.

If he's not on the
airship then where is he?

Kuvira, it's Baatar.

I've been captured.

My airship was ambushed
and I was taken by force.

Korra refuses to release
me unless we back down

and leave the city.

- Are you injured?
- I'm fine.

Is the Avatar there with you now?

Yes. Everyone is here.

Find out where that radio
signal's coming from.

Listen to me.

If you try to take Republic City,

the Avatar will never let me see you again

and I refuse to live that way.

Forget the United Republic.
We have our empire.

We have each other.

Let's go back home and get married.

The only thing that matters
is that we're together

for the rest of our lives.

We've identified their position.

You're right, this city
isn't worth sacrificing

our life together.

I love you, Baatar.

As soon as we work out terms with Kuvira,

we'll let you out of here.

Guys! She must have our location!

She's point that weapon right at us.

No, she wouldn't...

everyone out! Now!

Now!

- No.
- Keep the President safe.

I'm going to check for survivors.
