All language subtitles for Avatar (The Legend of Korra) - S01 E11 - Skeletons in the Closet (720p BluRay)

Earth.

Fire.

Air.

Water.

Only the Avatar can
master all four elements

and bring balance to the world.

The Equalists are on the attack.

The Lieutenant and
his Chi-blockers

invaded Air Temple Island and forced
Tenzin and his family to flee.

In the daring escape,

Lin Beifong sacrificed herself
and saved the Airbenders.

But she was captured, and
Amon took her bending away.

Now, Team Avatar is in hiding,

as they await help from General
Iroh and the United Forces.

It is a glorious day, my
Equalist brothers and sisters.

Amon has torn down the
tyrannical bending government.

He has declared bending illegal.

And he has the
Avatar on the run.

Our great leader has a
vision for the future.

One day soon, bending
will no longer exist,

and we will live in a world where
everyone is finally equal.

The United Forces are on their way
right now to try and stop that dream.

But we will prevail!

Can you believe Hiroshi?
"The Avatar's on the run."

I'm not running from anyone.

Let's go back up there
and knock some heads.

- They'll never know what hit 'em.
- Relax.

General Iroh's coming with an
entire fleet of battleships.

Then Amon will be the
one who's running.

I hate this "being
patient" stuff.

You two were gone awhile.

We were doing reconnaissance.

Whatever.

Welcome back.

Hope you worked up an appetite,
'cause dinner is served.

Thanks so much for letting us hide
out with you the past few days.

Honored to oblige.

My associates and I heartily oppose
Amon's so-called Equalist policies.

We got benders and non-benders
livin' together down here.

But do you see us fightin'?
No, siree.

We figured out how to
harmoniously coexist.

You are a wise and noble hobo.

This is the best tasting street
gruel I've ever had. Seriously.

I culled it from the finest
dumpsters the city has to offer.

Can't sleep either?

No. I have this awful
pit in my stomach.

Me, too.

It's so crazy. A few months ago,

I was in the South Pole, practicing
for my firebending test,

and now I'm in the middle
of an all-out war.

I know. We didn't even
know each other then.

And now, I can't imagine
my life without you in it.

You're the most loyal, brave and
selfless person I've ever known.

I think you're pretty incredible,
too, but you already knew that.

I should probably try
to get some sleep.

Me, too. Good night.

Good night.

You will now be cleansed
of your impurity.

Next.

Coast is clear.

Once the United Forces arrive, we need
to be ready to help in any way we can.

They're here.

Amon had to know we were coming.

So why aren't we meeting
any resistance?

Wait a second. Where are
the Equalist airships?

I don't see any
mecha-tanks, either.

Something's not right.

It's a trick.

Water and Earthbenders,
detonate those mines.

What is that sound?

What now?

Where does Hiroshi find the time to
keep inventing new, evil machines?

Incoming!

It's all right. I've got you.

Avatar Korra?

You saved my life. Thank you.

I was prepared to deal
with Sato's mecha-tanks,

- but not these new, high-speed aircraft.
- I know.

Every time we think we have an
advantage, Amon outsmarts us.

No matter what our plan is,
he always has a better one.

Amon is winning so far, but
we're not out of the fight yet.

I like this man's confidence.

So, how are we not
out of the fight?

A second wave of reinforcements is
on the way, but I need to warn them.

Do you still have a way
to get a message out?

I know just the man for the job.

And who is the recipient of
this top secret message?

Commander Bumi, second
division of the United Forces.

- Tenzin's brother?
- Yes.

Bit of a wild man, but the bravest
commander you'll ever meet.

Ready, sir.

Fleet ambushed and destroyed
by Equalist aircraft.

Retreat to Red Sand
island until my signal.

Do not approach city until
you receive the all-clear.

Now comes the hard part. We
need to ground those aircraft.

Otherwise, Bumi's fleet will never
be able to retake the city.

They flew in from
this direction.

The airfield must be somewhere
over this mountain range.

Everyone get ready.
We leave at dawn.

It's time to take
down my father.

Wait.

I'm sorry, but I'm not
going with you tomorrow.

- What?
- Why not?

I'm sick and tired of hiding from Amon.
It's time I face him.

That's not a good plan. We
need to stick together.

I'm not waiting for
him to hunt me down.

My gut's telling me it's time
to end this on my terms.

Korra, this is not a mission
you should be handling alone.

She won't be. I'm
going with you.

- You don't have to do that.
- Yes. I do.

My grandfather would respect
the Avatar's instinct.

So will I.

Love you, little bro.

Love you back, big bro.

Korra, Amon is a nasty dude.
Be careful.

I will. Good luck.

If you're going into the
mountains, you should bring Naga.

Take good care of Bolin for me.

Asami.

I'm sorry things got so
messed up between us.

But whatever happens today, I want you
to know how much I care about you.

I care about you, too.

Good fortune and success
to you, valiant heroes.

There's Amon.

We need to get into the temple.
Then, when he returns...

We ambush him.

What are you two doing here?

We were just transferred.

Well, you're getting
transferred again.

Amon wants extra security
at the arena today.

- The arena? For what?
- The rally.

You should have been
briefed about this.

We'll be there, sir.

I know another way in.

Let's hide in the attic.

We're not alone up here.

Tarrlok?

I don't suppose you're
here to rescue me.

We had no idea you were here.

Are there other prisoners
on the island?

No. I'm the only one.

And what makes you so special?

I'm Amon's brother.

Amon is from the
Northern Water Tribe.

He is a Waterbender and a
Bloodbender, just like I was.

What?

Did you know this all along?

No. Not until after
he captured me.

How did your brother
end up becoming Amon?

It all began with
my father, Yakone.

With the help of
his former gang,

he escaped prison and underwent
surgery to change his appearance.

He assumed a new identity and settled
down in the Northern Water Tribe.

That's where he met my mother,
a warm, caring woman.

Before long, they started
a family together.

Amon was the firstborn,
under the name Noatak.

I was born three years later.

Noatak was a good-natured kid,
always looking out for me.

Those were the good years,

before my brother and I
discovered we were Waterbenders.

At first, we were excited
by our new abilities,

but our training brought out a
different side of my father.

Tarrlok, you better shape up,

or you'll be out here in the cold
all night, until you get it right.

- I'm trying, but...
- Try harder.

Your brother was
never this sloppy.

Dad, he'll get it.
He just needs time.

Don't talk back to me, son.
Ever.

Even back then,

my brother wanted everyone to
be treated fairly and equally.

When I was seven, my father took
me and Noatak on a hunting trip,

far away from our home.

He told us his true
identity was Yakone,

Republic City's most
notorious crime boss,

and that he was once a
Bloodbender of rare skill.

What's bloodbending?

The most powerful and feared
form of bending in the world.

It was declared illegal,
thanks to that coward, Katara.

Our family has the strongest
line of Bloodbenders in history.

You boys have this power inside of you.
And I will teach you to master it.

What happened to
your bending, Dad?

The Avatar stole it from me.

That's why I brought you out
here, to learn your destiny.

You two will become Bloodbenders
of the highest order.

When the time is right, you
will claim Republic City,

and you will destroy the Avatar.

You must avenge me.

That is your purpose in life.

The good days were behind us.

Every full moon, our father took us
on another supposed hunting trip,

where he secretly trained
us in bloodbending.

We kept the truth
from our mother.

Stop. You're hurting it.

Toughen up, Tarrlok. You'll
need a thicker skin for this.

Very good, son. Very good.

A few years later, my father
taught us to bloodbend anytime,

without the need
of the full moon.

We practiced constantly, and
I hated every minute of it.

I had no stomach for
manipulating helpless animals.

My brother, however, seemed to
revel in his newfound power.

He was a prodigy, mastering my father's
psychic bloodbending technique

by the time he was 14.

That's the way it's done. That's
what you need to strive for.

Even though Noatak was my father's
favorite, it wasn't any easier for him.

He carried the burden of all
Yakone's expectations and demands.

Something changed in
Noatak over the years.

The loving brother I once knew
became cold and detached.

Our father pushed
us to extremes,

and one day, he made us
bloodbend each other.

Noatak. Go.

Excellent.

Tarrlok. Your turn.

No.

I won't do it.

Bloodbend your brother, Tarrlok.

That felt awful.

I don't want to do that to anyone.
I never want to bloodbend again.

You're a disgrace, a weakling.

I'll teach you a lesson,
you insubordinate...

Stay away from him.

How dare you bloodbend me!

What are you going to do about it?
You're the weak one.

You always say bloodbending is the
most powerful thing in the world,

but it isn't. The Avatar is.

He took your bending away.

What could be more
powerful than that?

I made you what you are.

You're mine.

We're your sons, not
your tools of revenge.

Let's go. We can run away from him.
Forever.

Run away? But what about Mom?
We can't just leave her.

He was right about you.
You are a weakling.

Noatak! Don't leave, please!

Noatak!

My father and I searched for days,
but we never found a sign of Noatak.

We thought he perished
in that storm.

My mother was never the same
after the loss of my brother.

My father stopped training me.

With Noatak gone, his hopes
for revenge withered,

and he passed away
a few years later.

That's one of the saddest
stories I've ever heard.

Avatar Korra, I am truly sorry
for all that I did to you.

I thought I was better than my father,
but his ghost still shaped me.

I became a soldier of revenge,
just like he wanted me to be.

And so did my brother.

The revolution may
be built on a lie,

but I think Amon truly believes bending
is the source of all evil in the world.

How did you figure out
Amon is your brother?

When he took my bending, the
sensation was somehow familiar.

I later recognized it as my
brother's bloodbending grip.

So he somehow uses bloodbending
to take people's bending?

I don't know how he does it,

but then again, I've never encountered
a bender as strong as Noatak.

- How in the world do we beat him?
- We can't.

Any attack we throw at him,
he'll redirect with his mind.

That's how he's been able
to challenge any bender.

So much for our ambush. If
we stay here, we're toast.

- But there's another way to beat him.
- How?

This whole time, Amon has
been one step ahead of us.

But finally we have the advantage.
We know the truth about him.

If we expose him as a bender in
front of all his supporters...

At the rally.

We could take away
his true power.

And undermine this
whole revolution.

Thank you for your help.

- We can't just leave him here.
- Go.

Amon can't know
anyone spoke with me.

Defeat him. Put an end
to this sad story.
