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.

AANG: Oof!

But I believe Aang can save the world.

More ferocious!

Imagine striking through
your opponent's heart.

(GROANS) I'm trying.

Now, let me hear you roar
like a tiger-dillo!

(ROARS WEAKLY)

That sounded pathetic.

I said, roar!

(ROARING)

(CHATTERING)

Who wants a nice cool
glass of watermelon juice?

Ooh, ooh, me, me, me!

Hey, your lesson's not over yet!
Get back here!

Come on, Zuko, just take a break.

What's the big deal?

Fine.

If you wanna lounge around

like a bunch of snail sloths
all day, then go ahead!

-AANG: (SLURPING)
-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.

(BELLOWS)

Not, bad baldy.

But I've been working on my sandbending.

You're gonna love this.

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!

BOTH: (LAUGHING)

Suki, we'll all understand

if you break with him up over this.

I think it's sweet.

But it doesn't even look like--

(SCREAMS)

What are you doing?

Teaching you a lesson.

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!

(WOOD SPLINTERING)

ZUKO: (GRUNTING)

(GROANS)

What's wrong with you?
You could have 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 gonna
wait to fight the Fire Lord

until after it came.

After?

I'm not ready.

I need more time to master firebending.

And, frankly, your earthbending

could still use some work, too.

So, you all knew Aang was gonna wait?

Honestly, if Aang tries to
fight the Fire Lord right now,

he's gonna lose.

No offense.

The whole point of fighting the Fire Lord
before the comet

was to stop the Fire Nation
from 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'd 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 domestic
forces into the Earth Kingdom.

Mmm...

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 a hundred suns.

No bender will stand a chance against us.

What are you suggesting, sir?

When the comet last came,
my grandfather, Fire Lord 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 all
the lands are Fire Nation,

and I am the supreme ruler of everything!

ALL: (APPLAUDING)

ZUKO: I wanted to speak out
against this horrifying plan,

but I'm ashamed to say I didn't.

My whole life, I've struggled

to gain my father's love and acceptance.

But once I had it,

I realized I'd lost myself getting there.

I'd forgotten who I was.

I can't believe this.

I always knew the Fire Lord was 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've 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 wanna do it any other way.

ALL EXCEPT ZUKO: (LAUGHING)

-Yeah.
-All right.

Get over here, Zuko.

Being part of the group
also means being part of group hugs.

(BELLOWING)

(THUDS)

ZUKO: There is 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 opponents'
energy against them.

-That's like waterbending.
-Exactly.

My uncle invented this technique himself

by studying waterbenders.

So, have you ever
redirected lightning before?

Once...

Against my father.

What did it feel like?

Exhilarating.

(ELECTRICITY ZAPPING)

But terrifying.

(EXPLOSION)

You feel so powerful holding
that much energy in your body,

but you know if you make
the wrong move... It's over.

(LAUGHS) Well, not over-over.

I mean, there is always Katara

and a little spirit water action,
am I right?

Actually, I used it all up
after Azula shot you.

Oh.

You'll have to take Fire Lord's
life before he takes yours.

Yeah, I'll just do that.

SOKKA: Gather around, 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 charge in
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?

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.

Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

(RUMBLING)

(FLAMES CRACKLING)

Watch it, Toph!

I am not Toph, I am Melon Lord!

Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

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 just didn't feel right.

I didn't feel like myself.

(WATERMELON SPLATTERS)

There! That's how it's done.

(NIBBLING)

I have a surprise for everyone!

I knew it! You did have
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?

ALL EXCEPT ZUKO: (LAUGHING)

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.

Fire Lord Ozai is a horrible person,

and the world will probably
be better off without him,

but there's gotta be another way.

ZUKO: Like what?

I don't know.

Maybe we can make some big pots of glue

and then I can 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 HEAVILY)

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 understand
the position I'm in!

Aang, we do understand. It's just--

Just what, Katara, what?

We're trying to help.

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.

Let him go.

He needs time to sort it out by himself.

(CHATTERING)

Hey, Momo.

I don't suppose you know what I should do.

(SQUAWKS)

I didn't think so.

MEN: (DEEP-TONED HYPNOTIC CHANTING)

(HYPNOTIC CHANT CONTINUES)

SOKKA: Okay, that's everything.

No, it's not. Where's Aang?

Aang? Aang?

Come on, lazy bones, let's go!

(DOOR CREAKS, THUDS)

He left his staff.

That's so strange.

Aang's not in a 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.

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, I 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.

CROWD: (CHANTING) Aang! Aang!

(CHANTING CONTINUES)

-Avatar State, yip-yip!
-CROWD: (CHEERING)

BOTH: (GROWLING)

TOPH: And then when I was
nine, I ran away again.

-Uh-huh.
-I know I shouldn't complain.

My parents gave me
everything I ever asked for.

But they never gave the one
thing that I really wanted...

Their love, you know what I mean?

(GROANS)

Look, I know you had a rough childhood.

But we should really
focus on finding Aang.

This is the worst field-trip ever.

(BLOWS)

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 that
Momo is 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 and
the 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 of
the expert on tracking Aang.

Yeah, if anyone's got experience
hunting the Avatar, it's you.

Zuko, I don't wanna tell
you how to do your job,

but why we are heading
towards the Earth Kingdom?

There's no way Aang's there.

Just trust me.

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?

There has been a change of plans, Azula.

What?

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?

And for your loyalty,

I've decided to declare you
the new Fire Lord.

Fire Lord Azula?

It does seems appropriate.

But, what about you?

Fire Lord 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!

(FLAMES ROARING)

TAVERN PATRONS: (SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

And the reason you brought us

to a seedy Earth Kingdom tavern
is what now?

June.

MAN: (GROANS)

SOKKA: Oh, yeah, that weird bounty hunter

with the giant mole.

KATARA: 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.

MAN: (GRUNTING)

I don't know who this
June lady is, but I like her.

MOMO: (PURRING)

(GROANS)

Hey, Momo. I just had the strangest dream.

Wait!

AANG: Where are we?

Hey, I remember her.
She helped you attack us.

Yep. 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 not his girlfriend!
-She's not my girlfriend!

Okay, okay, sheesh. I was only teasing.

So what do you want?

I need your help finding the Avatar.

Hmm, doesn't sound too fun.

Does the end of the world
sound like more fun?

(BOTH GROWLING)

(SLURPING)

Nyla?

(CHOMPING)

Whose my little snuffly-wuffly?

Whoa! Careful there!

Okay, so who's got something
with the Avatar's scent on it?

I have Aang's staff.

(SNIFFING)

(QUIET GROWLING)

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.

(CHATTERING)

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.

Oh, 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 back with a smell sample.

(FLIES BUZZING)

You saved your uncle's sweaty sandal?

I think it's kind of sweet.

(SNIFFING)

Let's do this.

ZUKO: Hey, wait up!

ZUKO: We're going to Ba Sing Se?

JUNE: Your uncle is
somewhere beyond the wall.

Nyla is getting twitchy,
so he can't be too far.

Good luck.

It's been a long day.

Let's camp and start
our search again at dawn.

(BIRDS TWITTERING)

It's a hexagon.

(CHATTERS)

It doesn't seem like normal rock.

It's not made of earth.

This is so strange.

I wish some help right now.
I wish I had Roku.

I do have Roku!

(BREATHING DEEPLY)

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.

SOKKA: (SNORING)

Huh?

APPA: (BELLOWING)

Well, look who's here.

(LAUGHS, SNORTS)

Everyone expects me to
take 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 Fire Lord Sozin

took advantage of my restraint and mercy.

If 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 surrounded by old people.

KATARA: Not just any old people,

these are great masters
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 exciting!
-SOKKA: (GASPS)

You and Gran-Gran must be so happy

to have found 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 Gramp-Pakku?

No.

And this was Aang's
first firebending teacher.

Jeong Jeong.

Master Piandao.

Hello, Sokka.

So, wait, how do you all know each other?

All old people know each other,
don't you know that?

(LAUGHS, SNORTS)

We're all are 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 has always
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!

(SNORTING LAUGHTER)

(CHATTERS)

Avatar Kyoshi, I need your wisdom.

In my day, Chin The Conqueror

threatened to throw
the world out of balance.

I stopped him and the world
entered a great era of peace.

AANG: But 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 have 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 Kyoshi...

SOKKA: So, Bumi,
how did you end up 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!

(STRAINING)

What do you think you're doing?

(GRUNTS)

Taking back my city.

You've got no firepower,
and it's payback time!

(RUMBLING)

(STRAINING)

(LAUGHS, SNORTS)

(CHOMPING)

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 have saved her.

Aang, you must actively
shape your own destiny,

and the destiny of the world.

Well, here we are.
Welcome to old people camp.

Where? Where is he?

Your uncle's in there, Prince Zuko.

Are you okay?

No, I'm not okay.

My uncle hates me, I know it.

He loved me and supported me
in 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 than I've been about anything

in my entire life.

Then he'll forgive you. He will.

(EXHALES)

Uncle...

(SNORING)

AANG: All these past Avatars,

they keep telling me
I'm gonna have to do it.

-They don't get it.
-(CHATTERS)

You're right, maybe an Air Nomad Avatar

will understand where I'm coming from.

(PURRS)

I know you can't really talk.

Pretending you can just helps me think.

(CHATTERS)

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're 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 me,
that I have to detach myself

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 to the 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.

(CHATTERING)

I guess I don't have a choice, Momo.

I have to kill the Fire Lord.

(YAWNING)

Uncle, I know you must have
mixed feelings about seeing me.

But I want you to know
I am so, so sorry, 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.

I did lose my way.

But you've found it again...

And you did it by yourself,

and I am so happy you found your way here.

It wasn't that hard, Uncle.

You have a pretty strong scent.

(SQUEAKS)

(BIRDS CALLING)

(DISTANT RUMBLING)

(YAWNS)

(RUMBLING CONTINUES)

Wait, is it just me or are
those mountains getting bigger?

(CHATTERS)

They're not getting larger,
they're getting closer.

(CHATTERS)

The whole island is moving!

(CHATTERS)

(GASPS)

(CHATTERING)

It's amazing, Momo!

The biggest animal in the world!

I've gotta swim around and find its face.

ZUKO: Uncle, you're the only
person other than the Avatar

who can possibly defeat the Father Lord.

You mean the Fire Lord?

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 would be the wrong way to end a war.

History would 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 new must 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 and you've suffered,

but you have always
followed your own path.

You restored your own honor,

and only you can restore
the honor of the Fire Nation.

I'll try, Uncle.

Well, what if Aang doesn'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 Lord falls,

you can assume the throne
and restore peace and order.

But Azula will be there waiting for you.

I can handle Azula.

Not alone. You'll need help.

You're right.

Katara, how would you like to
help me put Azula in her place?

It would be my pleasure.

What about us? What's our destiny today?

What do you think it is?

I think that even though
we don't know where Aang is,

we need to do everything we can
to stop the airship fleet.

And that means, when Aang
does face the Fire Lord,

we'll be right there if he need us.

Nothing runs faster over land

or swims quicker than a giant eel-hound.

The airship base is on a small island

just off the Earth Kingdom shore.

You should be able to intercept the fleet
within a day's journey.

Thank you, master.

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 am going to reconquer my tea shop

and I am going to play Pai Sho every day.

-Goodbye, General Iroh.
-Goodbye, everyone.

Today, destiny is our friend. I know it.

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 harmed.

Since beginningless time,
darkness thrives in the void,

but always yields to purifying light.

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.

(COMET ROARING)

APPA: (BELLOWS)

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.

(CRUNCHES)

(SPITS)

What am I holding?

A cherry pit, Princess.

Correct. And what day is this?

It is the day of your coronation.

Yes, it is.

So, please, tell me why,

on the most important day of my life,

you 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 suppose you could have 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.

It's weird to say, but the
comet actually looks beautiful.

Too bad the Fire Lord's about
to use it to destroy the world.

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--

ALL: (SCREAMING)

(GRUNTS)

You sent for us, Princess?
Is everything all right?

Actually, everything's not all right.

Do you know how long
it took you to get here?

Uh, 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.

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...

(KNOCKS ON DOOR)

(DOOR SLAMS)

Oh!

(GRUNTING)

(GROANS, THUDS)

-That's how it's done.
-SOKKA: Good work, Toph.

Time to take control 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 to
the bomb bay immediately,

for hot cakes and sweet cream.

We have a very special
birthday to celebrate.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

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?

-Uh-huh.
-Yep...

So, do you know whose birthday it is?

I can't believe the captain
remembered my birthday!

He really does care!

CREW: (SCREAMING)

(SPLASHING)

(ALL GASPING)

Happy birthday.

Fire Lord Ozai, here we come.

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 have betrayed me.

Just like Mai and Ty Lee did.

BOTH: Azula, we are concerned
for you and your well-being.

My father asked you to come
here and 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 everything
that'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.

BOTH: But... We're not Firebenders.

All right, fine.

Lo, you're banished. Li, you can stay.

But, I'm Li. So who is banished?

(VEHICLES RUMBLING)

Ba Sing Se, the Order of
the White Lotus is here.

Here to set you free.

Only once every hundred years,

can a firebender experience
this kind of power.

-(INHALES DEEPLY)
-(COMET ROARING)

(ROARING)

(CRASHING, GEARS GRINDING)

(GRUMBLES)

All right, hair,
it's time to face your doom.

What a shame. You always
had such beautiful hair.

What are you doing here?

I didn't want to miss
my 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 used
fear to control people.

Like your friends, Mai 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.

(YELLS)

(SOBBING)

(BREATHING DEEPLY)

We're not gonna catch up to him in time!

No...

(FLAMES ROARING)

(BIRDS SCREECHING)

(CHATTERS)

Momo, time for you to go.

(CHATTERS)

(BREATHING DEEPLY)

(ENGINES SLOWING)

What just happened?

It's Aang!

He's back!

OZAI: After generations of
Fire Lords 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.

You have the power to end it
here and stop what you're doing.

You are right. I do have the power.

I have all the power in the world!

(ROARS)

Go, Aang!

Airbending slice!

Shouldn't we be helping him?

The Fire Lord is Aang's fight.

We need to stay focused
on stopping that fleet

from burning 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!

Whoa, that's a lot of fire, isn't it?

SOKKA: It's gonna be a rough ride.

We need to get
to the top of this thing, fast.

(AIRSHIP RATTLING)

Then what?

Watch each other's backs,

and if we make it that far...
I'll let you know.

(KISSES)

(METAL GROANING, EXPLOSIONS)

SUKI: (GASPS)

(SCREAMS)

Suki!

SUKI: I'm okay! Just finish the mission!

No...

Sokka, I think we've gotta...

BOTH: Jump!

(EXPLOSION)

BOTH: (SCREAMING)

(GROANING)

By decree of Phoenix King Ozai,

I now crown you Fire Lord...

What are you waiting for? Do it!

APPA: (BELLOWS)

Sorry, but you're not gonna
become Fire Lord today.

I am.

(MOCKING LAUGHTER) 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't take us both,

so she's trying to separate us.

I know, but I can take her this time.

KATARA: But even you
admitted to your uncle

that 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.

(GASPING)

(PANTING)

(GROANS)

(GRUNTING)

(PANTING)

No lightning today?

What's the matter?
Afraid I'll redirect it?

Oh, I'll show you lightning!

(THUNDER CRASHING)

(INHALING DEEPLY)

(ELECTRICAL ZAPPING)

(LIGHTNING CRACKLING)

No!

(THUNDER CRASHING)

-(ELECTRICITY ZAPPING)
-(GROANING)

Zuko!

(LIGHTNING CRACKLES)

(LAUGHING MANIACALLY)

(GRUNTS)

(LAUGHING) You're weak!

Just like the rest of your people!

They did not deserve to exist
in this world, in my world!

Prepare to join them.

Prepare to die!

OZAI: Come on out, Avatar!

You can't hide in there forever!

Toph, metalbend the rudder,

so it's jammed in the turning position.

The ship will spiral
and slam into the others.

Got it.

(SPITS)

(STRAINING)

CREW: (GASPS)

Have I ever mentioned how sweet it is

that you invented metalbending?

You could stand to mention it more.

BOTH: (SCREAMING)

TOPH: (SCREAMS)

-SOKKA: Oh!
-(GRUNTS)

(STRAINING)

My leg!

-Hang on, Toph.
-Aye-aye, Captain.

-(GRUNTS)
-(SCREAMS)

Bye, space sword.

(STRAINING)

I don't think Boomerang
is coming back, Toph.

It's looks like this is the end.

CREW: (GASPING)

(METAL SCRAPING)

How did that happen?
Did Boomerang come back?

No, Suki did.

-(THUNDER CRASHING)
-(SCREAMS)

Come on out, little boy.
You're about to be--

(GASPS)

(GRUNTING)

(THUDS, GROANS)

I'd really rather our family physician

look after little Zu Zu,
if you don't mind.

(ELECTRICITY ZAPPING)

AZULA: Zu Zu, you don't look so good.

Hyah!

(GRUNTS)

There you are, filthy peasant.

(WATER BUBBLING)

BOTH: (PANTING, COUGHING)

(GROANS)

(STRAINING)

(GROANING)

(SOFTLY) Thank you, Katara.

I think I'm the one
who should be thanking you.

(HYPERVENTILATING)

(SCREAMING)

(SOBBING)

(SCREAMS, SOBS CONTINUE)

(GASPS)

(CRASHING)

(GASPS)

AANG: (IN DISTORTED VOICE) Fire Lord Ozai,

you and your forefathers

have devastated the balance of this world,

and now, you shall pay the ultimate price.

(ROARING)

(WATER SPLASHES)

(GROANS)

No. I am not gonna end it like this.

Even with all power in the world,

you are still weak.

(HYPNOTIC CHANTING)

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.

BOTH: (GROAN)

(GRUNTS WEAKLY)

(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.

(BREATHING DEEPLY)

(CHATTERING)

You did it!

You should've seen yourself!
It was amazing!

You were all like...

(IMITATES ZAPPING, PUNCHING, EXPLOSIONS)

...and the Fire Lord was all like...

(IMITATES GROANING, CHOKING, MOANING)

So, did you, you know, finish the job?

I'm still alive.

I learned there was another way

to defeat him and 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 is gone,

I guess we should call
you the "Loser Lord".

I am the Phoenix King.

-(GROANING)
-(THUDS)

Oh, sorry, didn't mean to offend you,

Phoenix King of getting his butt-whooped.

Yeah, or how about "King of...
The Guys Who Don't Win"?

Leave the nicknames to us, honey.

(GROANING)

You need some help with that?

Mai. You're okay.

They let you out of prison?

My uncle pulled some strings.

And it doesn't hurt when
the new Fire Lord is 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.

CROWD: (MURMURING)

-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 kinda 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 okay.

She's one of us now.

(YELPS)

Yeah, the girls and I
really bonded in prison

and after a few chi-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 are friends.

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.

(GONG RINGING)

CROWD: (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 Fire Lord Zuko!

CROWD: (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.

Hmm...

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 really here?

Because you're gonna tell me something.

Where is my mother?

(GRUNT OF EFFORT)

(LAUGHING)

APPA: (GRUMBLING)

(PLAYING CALMING MUSIC)

(STOPS PLAYING)

(MUSIC RESUMES)

Zuko, stop moving!

I'm trying to capture the moment.

I wanted to do a painting,

so we'd 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't look like a porcupine.

My hair is not that spiky.

SUKI: I look like a man.

TOPH: And why did you
paint me firebending?

I thought it looked
more exciting that way.

Oh, you think you could do
a better job, Momo?

MOMO: (CHATTERING)

IROH: Hey, my belly
is not that big anymore...

I've really trimmed down.

TOPH: Well, I think you all look perfect!

ALL: (LAUGHING)
