0:01 - 0:02	Water...
0:03 - 0:04	Earth...
0:05 - 0:07	Fire...
0:07 - 0:09	Air.
0:10 - 0:14	Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony.
0:14 - 0:17	Then everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked.
0:18 - 0:21	Only the Avatar, master of all four elements,
0:21 - 0:22	could stop them.
0:22 - 0:24	But when the world needed him most,
0:24 - 0:25	he vanished.
0:26 - 0:27	100 years passed,
0:27 - 0:29	and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar―
0:30 - 0:31	An airbender named Aang.
0:31 - 0:33	And although his airbending skills are great,
0:33 - 0:36	He has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone.
0:36 - 0:37	Oof!
0:37 - 0:40	But I believe Aang can save the world.
0:49 - 0:50	We need to find King Bumi
0:50 - 0:52	so Aang can learn earthbending somewhere safe.
0:52 - 0:54	Sounds like you're headed to Omashu.
0:55 - 0:59	I present to you the Earth Kingdom city of Om― Oh, no.
1:00 - 1:03	I guess I need to find someone else to teach me earthbending.
1:03 - 1:07	You need to find someone who waits and listens before striking.
1:08 - 1:11	In the swamp, we see visions of people we've lost,
1:11 - 1:13	people we loved.
1:13 - 1:14	But what about my vision?
1:15 - 1:16	It was someone I had never met.
1:26 - 1:30	It's pricey, but I really do like it.
1:30 - 1:33	Then you should get it. You deserve something nice.
1:33 - 1:34	I do, don't I?
1:35 - 1:38	But no. It's too expensive. I shouldn't.
1:38 - 1:39	All right. Then don't.
1:44 - 1:45	You know what? I'm gonna get it.
1:47 - 1:48	Psst, psst.
1:48 - 1:50	Hey, you kids like earthbending?
1:50 - 1:51	You like throwing rocks?
1:52 - 1:55	Then check out Master Yu's earthbending academy.
1:58 - 2:00	Look. There's a coupon on the back.
2:00 - 2:01	The first lesson is free.
2:02 - 2:04	Who knows? This Master Yu could be
2:04 - 2:06	the earthbending teacher you've been looking for.
2:17 - 2:18	Take your stances.
2:19 - 2:23	Now strike as if you're punching through your opponent's head.
2:25 - 2:26	Hyah!
2:28 - 2:31	So are you ready to commit to more lessons?
2:31 - 2:33	If you pay for the whole year in advance,
2:33 - 2:36	I'll bump you up to the next belt.
2:39 - 2:41	Eh, he's not the one.
2:42 - 2:44	I think the Boulder is gonna win back the belt
2:44 - 2:45	at Earth Rumble 6.
2:45 - 2:47	He's gonna have to fight his way through
2:47 - 2:50	the best earthbenders in the world to even get a shot at the champ.
2:51 - 2:54	Excuse me. But where is this earthbending tournament exactly?
2:54 - 2:55	It's on the island of Noneoya―
2:55 - 2:57	None o' ya business.
2:57 - 2:58	Ha ha! Ha ha!
2:59 - 3:01	Ha ha!
3:01 - 3:04	Oh, I got to remember that one.
3:04 - 3:05	I'll take care of this.
3:06 - 3:08	Hey, strong guys, wait up.
3:10 - 3:13	What was I thinking? I don't need a new bag.
3:13 - 3:16	Why'd you let me buy this?
3:19 - 3:21	You ready to find an earthbending teacher,
3:21 - 3:24	because we're going to Earth Rumble 6.
3:24 - 3:26	How did you get them to tell you?
3:26 - 3:28	Oh, a girl has her ways.
3:36 - 3:40	Hey, front row seats. I wonder why no one else is sitting here.
3:41 - 3:42	I guess that's why.
3:50 - 3:53	Welcome to Earth Rumble 6.
3:53 - 3:56	I am your host, Xin Fu.
3:56 - 3:59	This is just gonna be a bunch of guys
3:59 - 4:01	chucking rocks at each other, isn't it?
4:01 - 4:02	That's what I paid for.
4:03 - 4:05	The rules are simple.
4:05 - 4:07	Just knock the other guy out of the ring,
4:07 - 4:08	and you win.
4:12 - 4:18	Round one― The Boulder versus the Big Bad Hippo!
4:20 - 4:25	Listen up, Hippo. You may be big, but you ain't bad.
4:25 - 4:29	The Boulder's gonna win this in a landslide.
4:29 - 4:32	Hippo mad!
4:35 - 4:37	Hyah!
4:44 - 4:46	Unbelievable, ladies and gentlemen.
4:46 - 4:48	The Hippo is rocking the Boulder.
5:03 - 5:04	The Boulder wins.
5:06 - 5:07	How about the Boulder?
5:07 - 5:09	He's got some good moves.
5:09 - 5:12	I don't know. Bumi said I need a teacher who listens to the earth.
5:13 - 5:15	He's just listening to his big muscles.
5:15 - 5:16	What do you think, Sokka?
5:16 - 5:18	Ha ha! Whoo!
5:18 - 5:25	Next match, the Boulder versus Fire Nation Man.
5:28 - 5:30	Boo! Boo!
5:31 - 5:32	Please do rise
5:32 - 5:35	for Fire Nation national anthem.
5:35 - 5:40	Fire lord, my flame burns for thee
5:42 - 5:45	Go back to the Fire Nation.
5:50 - 5:52	No. No, please!
5:55 - 5:57	Aah!
5:59 - 6:01	Yeah! Whoo!
6:01 - 6:04	The Boulder knows how to put the hurt in the dirt.
6:04 - 6:06	Yeah! Whoo!
6:25 - 6:29	Now the moment you've all been waiting for―
6:29 - 6:35	The Boulder versus your champion― The Blind Bandit.
6:36 - 6:40	( CROWD CHANTING "BANDIT" )
6:40 - 6:42	She can't really be blind.
6:42 - 6:44	It's just part of her character, right?
6:44 - 6:45	I think she is.
6:45 - 6:46	I think she is...
6:46 - 6:47	Going down!
6:50 - 6:52	The Boulder feels conflicted
6:52 - 6:55	about fighting a young blind girl.
6:55 - 6:58	Sounds to me like you're scared, Boulder.
6:59 - 7:02	The Boulder's over his conflicted feelings,
7:02 - 7:06	and now he's ready to bury you in a rock-alanche.
7:06 - 7:09	Whenever you're ready, the Pebble.
7:09 - 7:11	Ha ha ha!
7:14 - 7:15	Ha ha ha!
7:18 - 7:19	It's on.
7:45 - 7:46	Whoa!
7:47 - 7:48	Ooh.
7:48 - 7:50	Ooh!
7:56 - 8:01	Your winner, and still the champion, the Blind Bandit.
8:01 - 8:04	No!
8:05 - 8:06	How did she do that?
8:07 - 8:09	She waited and listened.
8:12 - 8:14	To make things a little more interesting,
8:14 - 8:17	I'm offering up this sack of gold pieces
8:17 - 8:22	to anyone who can defeat the Blind Bandit.
8:22 - 8:25	What? No one dares to face her?
8:26 - 8:27	I will.
8:31 - 8:34	Go, Aang! Avenge the Boulder!
8:34 - 8:37	Do people really want to see two little girls
8:37 - 8:38	fighting out here?
8:38 - 8:40	Ooh.
8:41 - 8:42	I don't really want to fight you.
8:42 - 8:44	I want to talk to you.
8:44 - 8:46	Boo! No talking!
8:46 - 8:47	Don't boo at him.
8:56 - 8:58	Somebody's a little light on his feet.
8:58 - 9:01	What's your fighting name, the Fancy Dancer?
9:04 - 9:06	Where'd you go?
9:06 - 9:08	Please, wait.
9:08 - 9:09	There you are.
9:11 - 9:12	Aah!
9:21 - 9:23	Please listen!
9:23 - 9:24	I need an earthbending teacher,
9:24 - 9:26	and I think it's supposed to be you.
9:26 - 9:28	Whoever you are, just leave me alone.
9:31 - 9:32	Wait!
9:40 - 9:41	Way to go, champ.
9:49 - 9:50	I got to admit,
9:50 - 9:52	now I'm really glad I bought this bag.
9:52 - 9:55	It matches the belt perfectly.
9:55 - 9:57	That is a big relief.
9:57 - 9:58	If we want to find the Blind Bandit,
9:58 - 10:01	The earthbending academy is a good place to start.
10:05 - 10:07	Oh, great. You again.
10:08 - 10:09	Aah! Aah!
10:09 - 10:11	Yeah. I didn't think so.
10:11 - 10:12	Nicely done.
10:12 - 10:15	Hey, you're the kid who beat the Blind Bandit.
10:15 - 10:17	We need to talk to her.
10:17 - 10:18	Do you guys know where she lives?
10:18 - 10:20	The Blind Bandit's a mystery.
10:20 - 10:23	She shows up to fight, then disappears.
10:24 - 10:26	Let me handle this.
10:26 - 10:28	You're not telling us everything.
10:28 - 10:30	No, no. I swear it's true.
10:30 - 10:32	No one knows where she goes or who she really is.
10:33 - 10:35	That's because we're asking about the wrong person.
10:35 - 10:38	In my vision, I saw a girl in a white dress
10:38 - 10:40	with a pet flying boar.
10:40 - 10:41	Know anybody like that?
10:41 - 10:45	Well, a flying boar is the symbol of the Beifong family.
10:45 - 10:46	They're the richest people in town,
10:46 - 10:48	Probably the whole world.
10:48 - 10:50	Yeah, but they don't have a daughter.
10:50 - 10:53	A flying boar is good enough for me. Let's check it out.
10:53 - 10:55	Yeah. You better leave.
10:55 - 10:58	Hey. I got my eye on you.
10:59 - 11:00	Water tribe.
11:01 - 11:03	I'm telling you,
11:03 - 11:05	the Boulder was standing right there.
11:05 - 11:08	I saw the kid strike, but there was no earthbending.
11:08 - 11:10	Nothing made contact.
11:10 - 11:12	The Blind Bandit just fell out of the ring.
11:13 - 11:14	She must have took a dive
11:14 - 11:16	and split the money with the kid.
11:21 - 11:23	Nobody cheats Xin Fu.
11:30 - 11:32	That's the flying boar from my vision. Come on.
11:48 - 11:50	What are you doing here, twinkle toes?
11:50 - 11:52	How did you know it was me?
11:52 - 11:55	Don't answer to twinkle toes. It's not manly.
11:55 - 11:57	You're the one whose bag matches his belt.
11:57 - 11:59	How did you find me?
11:59 - 12:01	Well, a crazy king told me I had to find
12:01 - 12:03	the earthbender who listens to the earth.
12:03 - 12:05	And then I had a vision in a magic swamp, and―
12:05 - 12:07	What Aang is trying to say
12:07 - 12:10	is he's the Avatar, and if he doesn't master earthbending soon,
12:10 - 12:12	he won't be able to defeat the Fire Lord.
12:13 - 12:16	Not my problem. Now get out of here
12:16 - 12:17	or I'll call the guards.
12:17 - 12:20	Look, we all have to do our part to win this war.
12:20 - 12:22	And yours is to teach Aang earthbending.
12:23 - 12:25	Guards! Guards, help!
12:28 - 12:30	Toph, what happened?
12:30 - 12:34	I thought I heard someone. I got scared.
12:34 - 12:37	You know your father doesn't want you wandering the grounds
12:37 - 12:39	without supervision, Toph.
12:47 - 12:48	I'm pleased to hear
12:48 - 12:51	that Toph's private lessons are going well,
12:51 - 12:54	but I want to be sure she's not trying anything too dangerous.
12:55 - 12:56	Absolutely not.
12:56 - 12:59	I'm keeping her at the beginner's level―
12:59 - 13:02	Basic forms and breathing exercises only.
13:02 - 13:03	Very good.
13:04 - 13:07	Excuse me, sir, but you have a visitor.
13:08 - 13:09	Who thinks they are so important
13:10 - 13:12	they can just come to my home unannounced?
13:12 - 13:14	Uh, the Avatar, sir.
13:26 - 13:28	Blow on it. It's too hot for her.
13:28 - 13:29	Allow me.
13:33 - 13:34	Oh, my.
13:34 - 13:38	Avatar Aang, it's an honor to have you visit us.
13:38 - 13:42	In your opinion, how much longer do you think the war will last?
13:42 - 13:45	I'd like to defeat the Fire Lord by the end of summer,
13:46 - 13:47	but I can't do that
	without finding an earthbending teacher first.
13:50 - 13:54	Well, Master Yu is the finest teacher in the land.
13:54 - 13:56	He's been teaching Toph since she was little.
13:56 - 13:58	Then she must be a great earthbender,
13:59 - 14:02	Probably good enough to teach someone else. Ow!
14:05 - 14:07	Toph is still learning the basics.
14:08 - 14:11	Yes. And, sadly, because of her blindness,
14:11 - 14:13	I don't think she will ever become a true master.
14:15 - 14:17	Oh, I'm sure she's better than you think she is.
14:18 - 14:19	Uh!
14:34 - 14:36	What's your problem?
14:36 - 14:37	What's your problem?
14:40 - 14:43	Well, shall we move to the living room
14:43 - 14:45	for dessert, then?
14:48 - 14:49	Good night, buddy.
14:52 - 14:53	Hyah!
14:53 - 14:56	Relax. Look, I'm sorry about dinner.
14:56 - 14:58	Let's call it a truce, ok?
15:01 - 15:04	Even though I was born blind, I've never had a problem seeing.
15:06 - 15:07	I see with earthbending.
15:08 - 15:10	It's kind of like seeing with my feet.
15:11 - 15:13	I feel the vibrations in the earth,
15:13 - 15:15	and I can see where everything is―
15:16 - 15:20	You, that tree, even those ants.
15:23 - 15:25	That's amazing.
15:25 - 15:27	My parents don't understand.
15:28 - 15:30	They've always treated me like I was helpless.
15:30 - 15:33	Is that why you became the Blind Bandit?
15:33 - 15:34	Yeah.
15:34 - 15:37	Then why stay here where you're not happy?
15:37 - 15:38	They're my parents.
15:38 - 15:40	Where else am I supposed to go?
15:42 - 15:43	You could come with us.
15:43 - 15:46	Yeah. You guys get to go wherever you want.
15:46 - 15:50	No one telling you what to do― That's the life.
15:50 - 15:52	It's just not my life.
15:55 - 15:57	We're being ambushed.
16:14 - 16:17	I think you kids owe me some money.
16:24 - 16:26	Whoever took Aang and Toph left this.
16:27 - 16:29	"If you want to see your daughter again,
16:29 - 16:31	bring 500 gold pieces to the arena."
16:31 - 16:34	It's signed "Xin Fu and the Boulder."
16:34 - 16:35	I can't believe it.
16:36 - 16:38	I have the Boulder's autograph!
16:40 - 16:43	Master Yu, I need you to help me get my daughter back.
16:43 - 16:44	We're going with you.
16:45 - 16:47	Poor Toph!
16:47 - 16:48	She must be so scared.
16:49 - 16:51	You think you're so tough, why don't you come up here
16:51 - 16:53	so I can smack that grin off your face?
16:54 - 16:55	I'm not smiling.
16:55 - 16:57	Toph!
16:58 - 17:00	Here's your money. Now, let them go.
17:11 - 17:12	What about Aang?
17:12 - 17:16	I think the Fire Nation will pay a hefty price for the Avatar.
17:16 - 17:19	Now get out of my ring.
17:35 - 17:37	Go. I'll be ok.
17:40 - 17:44	Toph, there's too many of them. We need an earthbender.
17:44 - 17:45	We need you.
17:45 - 17:47	My daughter is blind.
17:47 - 17:51	She is blind and tiny and helpless and fragile.
17:51 - 17:53	She cannot help you.
17:53 - 17:55	Yes, I can.
18:02 - 18:03	Let him go.
18:04 - 18:06	I beat you all before, and I'll do it again.
18:07 - 18:09	The Boulder takes issue with that comment.
18:12 - 18:14	Wait.
18:19 - 18:21	They're mine.
19:07 - 19:08	Ugh.
19:09 - 19:10	Hit it harder!
19:10 - 19:11	I'm trying.
19:45 - 19:47	Aah!
20:13 - 20:16	I never knew. Your daughter's amazing.
21:08 - 21:13	She's the greatest earthbender I've ever seen.
21:14 - 21:16	Dad, I know it's probably hard
21:17 - 21:18	for you to see me this way,
21:18 - 21:20	but the obedient little helpless blind girl
21:20 - 21:22	that you think I am just isn't me.
21:23 - 21:24	I love fighting.
21:25 - 21:26	I love being an earthbender.
21:27 - 21:29	And I'm really, really good at it.
21:30 - 21:32	I know I've kept my life secret from you,
21:33 - 21:35	but you were keeping me secret from the whole world.
21:35 - 21:37	You were doing it to protect me.
21:38 - 21:40	But I'm 12 years old, and I've never had a real friend.
21:42 - 21:44	So now that you see who I really am,
21:44 - 21:47	I hope it doesn't change the way you feel about me.
21:47 - 21:50	Of course it doesn't change the way I feel about you, Toph.
	It's made me realize something.
21:53 - 21:54	It has?
21:54 - 21:58	Yes. I've let you have far too much freedom.
21:58 - 22:00	From now on, you will be cared for and guarded
22:00 - 22:02	24 hours a day.
22:02 - 22:03	But, Dad―
22:03 - 22:06	MRS. BEIFONG: We are doing this for your own good, Toph.
22:06 - 22:09	MR. BEIFONG: Please escort the Avatar and his friends out.
22:09 - 22:12	They are no longer welcome here.
22:12 - 22:14	I'm sorry, Toph.
22:14 - 22:17	I'm sorry, too. Good-bye, Aang.
22:22 - 22:24	Don't worry. We'll find you a teacher.
22:25 - 22:28	There are plenty of amazing earthbenders out there.
22:28 - 22:29	Not like her.
22:39 - 22:41	Toph, what are you doing here?
22:41 - 22:43	My dad changed his mind.
22:43 - 22:46	He said I was free to travel the world.
22:47 - 22:49	Well, we'd better get out of here
22:49 - 22:51	before your dad changes his mind again.
22:51 - 22:53	Good idea.
22:53 - 22:55	You're gonna be a great teacher, Toph.
22:55 - 22:58	Speaking of which, I want to show you something.
22:58 - 22:59	Ok.
23:00 - 23:01	Aah!
23:02 - 23:03	Now we're even.
23:03 - 23:05	Um, I'll take the belt back.
23:08 - 23:09	Ow!
23:10 - 23:11	Sorry.
23:13 - 23:15	MR. BEIFONG: I know you two are very different,
23:15 - 23:18	but I believe you have a common interest.
23:23 - 23:25	The Avatar has kidnapped my daughter.
23:25 - 23:30	I want you to do whatever it takes to bring her home.
