0:02 - 0:04
|
Water.
|
0:04 - 0:06
|
Earth.
|
0:06 - 0:08
|
Fire.
|
0:08 - 0:10
|
Air.
|
0:11 - 0:15
|
Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony.
|
0:15 - 0:19
|
Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked.
|
0:19 - 0:22
|
Only the Avatar, master of all four elements,
|
0:22 - 0:23
|
could stop them.
|
0:23 - 0:26
|
But when the world needed him most, he vanished.
|
0:27 - 0:29
|
A hundred years passed, and my brother and I discovered
|
0:29 - 0:32
|
the new Avatar, an airbender named Aang.
|
0:32 - 0:35
|
And although his airbending skills are great,
|
0:35 - 0:37
|
he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone.
|
0:37 - 0:38
|
Oof!
|
0:39 - 0:42
|
But I believe Aang can save the world.
|
1:02 - 1:04
|
More ferocious!
|
1:04 - 1:06
|
Imagine striking through your opponent's heart.
|
1:07 - 1:09
|
I'm trying.
|
1:09 - 1:12
|
Now, let me hear you roar like a tiger-dillo!
|
1:14 - 1:16
|
That sounded pathetic.
|
1:16 - 1:18
|
I said, roar!
|
1:25 - 1:29
|
Who wants a nice cool glass of watermelon juice?
|
1:29 - 1:31
|
Ooh, ooh, me, me, me!
|
1:31 - 1:34
|
Hey, your lesson's not over yet! Get back here!
|
1:34 - 1:36
|
Come on, Zuko, just take a break.
|
1:36 - 1:38
|
What's the big deal?
|
1:38 - 1:40
|
Fine.
|
1:40 - 1:42
|
If you wanna lounge around
|
1:42 - 1:44
|
like a bunch of snail sloths all day, then go ahead!
|
1:44 - 1:46
|
Maybe Zuko's right.
|
1:47 - 1:49
|
Sitting around the house has made us pretty lazy.
|
1:49 - 1:51
|
But I know just the thing to change that―
|
1:51 - 1:53
|
Beach party!
|
2:13 - 2:15
|
Check out my Appa sand-sculpture.
|
2:16 - 2:18
|
Not, bad baldy.
|
2:18 - 2:21
|
But I've been working on my sandbending.
|
2:21 - 2:22
|
You're gonna love this.
|
2:28 - 2:29
|
Whoa!
|
2:29 - 2:33
|
Wow, you even made a little Earth King and Bosco.
|
2:35 - 2:37
|
Try and top that, Sokka.
|
2:38 - 2:40
|
Ta-da!
|
2:40 - 2:43
|
Is that a blubbering blob-monster?
|
2:43 - 2:45
|
No, it's Suki!
|
2:49 - 2:50
|
Suki, we'll all understand
|
2:50 - 2:52
|
if you break with him up over this.
|
2:52 - 2:54
|
I think it's sweet.
|
2:55 - 2:57
|
But it doesn't even look like―
|
3:11 - 3:12
|
What are you doing?
|
3:14 - 3:16
|
Teaching you a lesson.
|
3:31 - 3:32
|
What happened?
|
3:32 - 3:34
|
Zuko's gone crazy!
|
3:34 - 3:36
|
I made a sand sculpture of Suki and he destroyed it!
|
3:38 - 3:40
|
Oh, and he's attacking Aang.
|
3:59 - 4:01
|
Get a grip before I blast you off this roof!
|
4:02 - 4:03
|
Go ahead and do it.
|
4:36 - 4:37
|
Enough!
|
4:47 - 4:49
|
What's wrong with you? You could have hurt Aang.
|
4:49 - 4:50
|
What's wrong with me?
|
4:51 - 4:52
|
What's wrong with all of you?
|
4:53 - 4:54
|
How can you sit around having beach parties
|
4:54 - 4:57
|
when Sozin's comet is only three days away?
|
4:59 - 5:01
|
Why are you all looking at me like I'm crazy?
|
5:01 - 5:03
|
About Sozin's comet―
|
5:03 - 5:05
|
I was actually gonna wait to fight the Fire Lord
|
5:05 - 5:07
|
until after it came.
|
5:07 - 5:08
|
After?
|
5:08 - 5:09
|
I'm not ready.
|
5:09 - 5:12
|
I need more time to master firebending.
|
5:12 - 5:14
|
And, frankly, your earthbending
|
5:14 - 5:15
|
could still use some work, too.
|
5:15 - 5:18
|
So, you all knew Aang was gonna wait?
|
5:18 - 5:21
|
Honestly, if Aang tries to fight the Fire Lord right now,
|
5:21 - 5:22
|
he's gonna lose.
|
5:23 - 5:24
|
No offense.
|
5:24 - 5:27
|
The whole point of fighting the Fire Lord before the comet
|
5:27 - 5:29
|
was to stop the Fire Nation from winning the war.
|
5:29 - 5:32
|
But they pretty much won the war when they took Ba Sing Se.
|
5:32 - 5:34
|
Things can't get any worse.
|
5:34 - 5:37
|
You're wrong.
|
5:37 - 5:39
|
It's about to get worse than you can even imagine.
|
5:40 - 5:42
|
The day before the eclipse,
|
5:42 - 5:44
|
my father asked me to attend an important war meeting.
|
5:44 - 5:47
|
It was what I'd dreamed about and wanted for so many years.
|
5:48 - 5:49
|
My father had finally accepted me back.
|
5:53 - 5:55
|
Welcome, Prince Zuko.
|
5:55 - 5:57
|
We waited for you.
|
6:05 - 6:07
|
General Shinu, your report.
|
6:07 - 6:09
|
Thank you, sir.
|
6:09 - 6:12
|
Ba Sing Se is still under our control,
|
6:12 - 6:15
|
however, earthbender rebellions have prevented us
|
6:15 - 6:18
|
from achieving total victory in the Earth Kingdom.
|
6:18 - 6:20
|
What is your recommendation?
|
6:20 - 6:22
|
Our army is spread too thin,
|
6:22 - 6:25
|
but once the eclipse is over, and the invasion defeated,
|
6:25 - 6:29
|
we should transfer more domestic forces into the Earth Kingdom.
|
6:29 - 6:31
|
Mmm...
|
6:31 - 6:34
|
Prince Zuko, you've been among the Earth Kingdom commoners.
|
6:34 - 6:36
|
Do you think that adding more troops
|
6:36 - 6:38
|
will stop these rebellions?
|
6:40 - 6:43
|
The people of the Earth Kingdom are proud and strong.
|
6:43 - 6:47
|
They can endure anything as long as they have hope.
|
6:47 - 6:49
|
Yes, you're right.
|
6:51 - 6:53
|
We need to destroy their hope.
|
6:54 - 6:56
|
Well, that's not exactly what I―
|
6:56 - 6:58
|
I think you should take their precious hope,
|
6:58 - 7:02
|
and the rest of their land and burn it all to the ground.
|
7:02 - 7:06
|
Yes, yes, you're right Azula.
|
7:06 - 7:09
|
Sozin's comet is almost upon us,
|
7:09 - 7:11
|
and on that day, it will endow us
|
7:11 - 7:14
|
with the strength and power of a hundred suns.
|
7:14 - 7:17
|
No bender will stand a chance against us.
|
7:17 - 7:19
|
What are you suggesting, sir?
|
7:20 - 7:24
|
When the comet last came, my grandfather, Fire Lord Sozin,
|
7:24 - 7:26
|
used it to wipe out the Air Nomads.
|
7:26 - 7:30
|
Now, I will use its power to end the Earth Kingdom...
|
7:30 - 7:32
|
Permanently!
|
7:33 - 7:37
|
From our airships we will rain fire over their lands,
|
7:37 - 7:40
|
a fire that will destroy everything,
|
7:41 - 7:44
|
and out of the ashes, a new world will be born.
|
7:44 - 7:47
|
A world in which all the lands are Fire Nation,
|
7:47 - 7:52
|
and I am the supreme ruler of everything!
|
7:53 - 7:56
|
I wanted to speak out against this horrifying plan,
|
7:56 - 7:58
|
but I'm ashamed to say I didn't.
|
7:59 - 8:00
|
My whole life, I've struggled
|
8:00 - 8:03
|
to gain my father's love and acceptance.
|
8:03 - 8:04
|
But once I had it,
|
8:04 - 8:07
|
I realized I'd lost myself getting there.
|
8:07 - 8:10
|
I'd forgotten who I was.
|
8:10 - 8:12
|
I can't believe this.
|
8:13 - 8:15
|
I always knew the Fire Lord was a bad guy.
|
8:15 - 8:18
|
But his plan is just pure evil.
|
8:19 - 8:20
|
What am I gonna do?
|
8:21 - 8:22
|
I know you're scared.
|
8:22 - 8:25
|
And I know you're not ready to save the world.
|
8:25 - 8:28
|
But if you don't defeat the Fire Lord before the comet comes,
|
8:28 - 8:30
|
there won't be a world to save anymore.
|
8:37 - 8:40
|
Why didn't you tell me about your dad's crazy plan sooner?
|
8:40 - 8:42
|
I didn't think I had to.
|
8:42 - 8:44
|
I assumed you were still gonna fight him before the comet.
|
8:44 - 8:47
|
No one told me you decided to wait.
|
8:47 - 8:48
|
This is bad.
|
8:48 - 8:51
|
This is really, really bad.
|
8:51 - 8:54
|
Aang, you don't have to do this alone.
|
8:54 - 8:56
|
Yeah, if we all fight the Fire Lord together,
|
8:57 - 8:58
|
we've got a shot at taking him down.
|
8:59 - 9:01
|
All right! Team Avatar is back!
|
9:01 - 9:02
|
Air.
|
9:02 - 9:04
|
Water.
|
9:04 - 9:05
|
Earth.
|
9:05 - 9:06
|
Fire.
|
9:06 - 9:08
|
Fan and sword.
|
9:09 - 9:11
|
Fighting the Fire Lord
|
9:11 - 9:13
|
is gonna be the hardest thing we've ever done together.
|
9:13 - 9:15
|
But I wouldn't wanna do it any other way.
|
9:17 - 9:19
|
Yeah. All right.
|
9:19 - 9:21
|
Get over here, Zuko.
|
9:21 - 9:25
|
Being part of the group also means being part of group hugs.
|
9:33 - 9:35
|
There is one technique you need to know
|
9:35 - 9:36
|
before facing my father...
|
9:37 - 9:38
|
How to redirect lightning.
|
9:40 - 9:42
|
If you let the energy in your own body flow,
|
9:42 - 9:44
|
the lightning will follow it.
|
9:44 - 9:46
|
You turn your opponents' energy against them.
|
9:47 - 9:49
|
That's like waterbending. Exactly.
|
9:49 - 9:51
|
My uncle invented this technique himself
|
9:51 - 9:52
|
by studying waterbenders.
|
9:53 - 9:56
|
So, have you ever redirected lightning before?
|
9:56 - 9:57
|
Once...
|
9:57 - 9:59
|
Against my father.
|
9:59 - 10:00
|
What did it feel like?
|
10:01 - 10:02
|
Exhilarating.
|
10:05 - 10:06
|
But terrifying.
|
10:09 - 10:12
|
You feel so powerful holding that much energy in your body,
|
10:12 - 10:16
|
but you know if you make the wrong move... It's over.
|
10:16 - 10:19
|
Well, not over-over.
|
10:19 - 10:21
|
I mean, there is always Katara
|
10:21 - 10:24
|
and a little spirit water action, am I right?
|
10:24 - 10:27
|
Actually, I used it all up after Azula shot you.
|
10:27 - 10:28
|
Oh.
|
10:29 - 10:32
|
You'll have to take Fire Lord's life before he takes yours.
|
10:34 - 10:36
|
Yeah, I'll just do that.
|
10:43 - 10:44
|
Gather around, Team Avatar.
|
10:47 - 10:48
|
In order to take out the Fire Lord,
|
10:48 - 10:50
|
or, in this case, the Melon Lord,
|
10:50 - 10:52
|
our timing has to be perfect.
|
10:52 - 10:55
|
First, Suki and I will draw his fire.
|
10:55 - 10:58
|
Then Katara and Zuko charge in with some liquidy hot offense,
|
10:59 - 11:01
|
and while the Melon Lord is distracted,
|
11:01 - 11:05
|
Aang swoops in and... Bam! He delivers the final blow.
|
11:05 - 11:07
|
Uh, what about me?
|
11:07 - 11:09
|
For now, you're the Melon Lord's forces.
|
11:09 - 11:12
|
So, I get to chuck flaming rocks at all of you?
|
11:12 - 11:14
|
Whatever makes the training feel more realistic.
|
11:15 - 11:16
|
Sweetness.
|
11:17 - 11:19
|
Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
|
11:46 - 11:47
|
Watch it, Toph!
|
11:48 - 11:51
|
I am not Toph, I am Melon Lord!
|
11:51 - 11:53
|
Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
|
12:07 - 12:08
|
Now, Aang!
|
12:19 - 12:21
|
What are you waiting for? Take him out!
|
12:22 - 12:23
|
I can't.
|
12:26 - 12:27
|
What's wrong with you?
|
12:27 - 12:29
|
If this was the real deal,
|
12:29 - 12:31
|
you'd be shot full of lightning right now.
|
12:31 - 12:33
|
I'm sorry, but it just didn't feel right.
|
12:34 - 12:35
|
I didn't feel like myself.
|
12:39 - 12:41
|
There! That's how it's done.
|
12:54 - 12:56
|
I have a surprise for everyone!
|
12:57 - 13:00
|
I knew it! You did have a secret thing with Haru!
|
13:02 - 13:04
|
Uh... No.
|
13:04 - 13:08
|
I was looking for cooking pots in the attic and I found this.
|
13:09 - 13:12
|
Look at baby Zuko! Isn't he cute?
|
13:15 - 13:17
|
Oh, lighten up. I'm just teasing.
|
13:18 - 13:21
|
That's not me. It's my father.
|
13:22 - 13:24
|
But he looks so sweet and innocent.
|
13:24 - 13:27
|
Well, that sweet little kid grew up to be a monster.
|
13:27 - 13:30
|
And the worst father in the history of fathers.
|
13:30 - 13:32
|
But he's still a human being.
|
13:33 - 13:34
|
You're going to defend him?
|
13:34 - 13:36
|
No, I agree with you.
|
13:36 - 13:38
|
Fire Lord Ozai is a horrible person,
|
13:38 - 13:40
|
and the world will probably be better off without him,
|
13:40 - 13:42
|
but there's gotta be another way.
|
13:42 - 13:43
|
Like what?
|
13:44 - 13:45
|
I don't know.
|
13:45 - 13:47
|
Maybe we can make some big pots of glue
|
13:47 - 13:49
|
and then I can use gluebending
|
13:49 - 13:50
|
to stick his arms and legs together
|
13:50 - 13:52
|
so he can't bend anymore.
|
13:52 - 13:54
|
Yeah, then you can show him his baby pictures
|
13:54 - 13:56
|
and all those happy memories will make him good again.
|
13:56 - 13:58
|
Do you really think that would work?
|
13:58 - 14:00
|
No!
|
14:01 - 14:04
|
This goes against everything I learned from the monks.
|
14:04 - 14:07
|
I can't just go around wiping out people I don't like.
|
14:07 - 14:10
|
Sure, you can. You're the Avatar.
|
14:10 - 14:11
|
If it's in the name of keeping balance,
|
14:11 - 14:14
|
I'm pretty sure the universe will forgive you.
|
14:14 - 14:16
|
This isn't a joke, Sokka!
|
14:16 - 14:18
|
None of you understand the position I'm in!
|
14:19 - 14:21
|
Aang, we do understand. It's just―
|
14:21 - 14:23
|
Just what, Katara, what?
|
14:23 - 14:24
|
We're trying to help.
|
14:25 - 14:27
|
When you figure out a way for me to beat the Fire Lord
|
14:27 - 14:29
|
without taking his life, I'd love to hear it!
|
14:31 - 14:33
|
Aang, don't walk away from this.
|
14:35 - 14:37
|
Let him go.
|
14:37 - 14:40
|
He needs time to sort it out by himself.
|
14:57 - 14:58
|
Hey, Momo.
|
14:58 - 15:00
|
I don't suppose you know what I should do.
|
15:02 - 15:03
|
I didn't think so.
|
15:18 - 15:21
|
( DEEP-TONED HYPNOTIC CHANTING )
|
16:03 - 16:05
|
Okay, that's everything.
|
16:05 - 16:07
|
No, it's not. Where's Aang?
|
16:12 - 16:14
|
Aang? Aang?
|
16:15 - 16:16
|
Come on, lazy bones, let's go!
|
16:18 - 16:20
|
( DOOR CREAKS, THUDS )
|
16:30 - 16:32
|
He left his staff.
|
16:32 - 16:33
|
That's so strange.
|
16:33 - 16:35
|
Aang's not in a house. Let's check the beach.
|
16:39 - 16:41
|
Look! There's his footprints.
|
16:41 - 16:43
|
The trail ends here.
|
16:43 - 16:46
|
So, he went for a midnight swim and never came back?
|
16:46 - 16:48
|
Maybe he was captured.
|
16:48 - 16:50
|
I don't think so. There's no sign of a struggle.
|
16:50 - 16:52
|
I bet he ran away again.
|
16:52 - 16:55
|
Uh-uh. He left behind his glider and Appa.
|
16:55 - 16:56
|
Then what do you think
|
16:57 - 16:58
|
happened to him, oh, sleuthy one?
|
16:59 - 17:01
|
It's pretty obvious.
|
17:01 - 17:03
|
Aang mysteriously disappears before an important battle?
|
17:03 - 17:06
|
He's definitely on a Spirit World journey.
|
17:06 - 17:09
|
But if he was, wouldn't his body still be here?
|
17:09 - 17:11
|
Oh, yeah, I forgot about that.
|
17:11 - 17:13
|
Then he's gotta be somewhere on Ember Island.
|
17:13 - 17:14
|
Let's split up and look for him.
|
17:14 - 17:16
|
I'm going with Zuko!
|
17:16 - 17:18
|
What?
|
17:18 - 17:20
|
Everyone else went on a life-changing field-trip with Zuko.
|
17:20 - 17:22
|
Now, it's my turn.
|
17:30 - 17:32
|
Aang! Aang!
|
17:39 - 17:42
|
Avatar State, yip-yip!
|
17:44 - 17:47
|
And then when I was nine, I ran away again.
|
17:47 - 17:49
|
Uh-huh. I know I shouldn't complain.
|
17:49 - 17:52
|
My parents gave me everything I ever asked for.
|
17:52 - 17:55
|
But they never gave the one thing that I really wanted...
|
17:55 - 17:57
|
Their love, you know what I mean?
|
17:58 - 18:00
|
Look, I know you had a rough childhood.
|
18:00 - 18:04
|
But we should really focus on finding Aang.
|
18:04 - 18:06
|
This is the worst field-trip ever.
|
18:14 - 18:15
|
Judging by the looks on your faces,
|
18:16 - 18:18
|
I'm guessing you guys didn't find Aang, either.
|
18:19 - 18:21
|
No.
|
18:21 - 18:23
|
It's like he just disappeared.
|
18:24 - 18:25
|
Hey, wait a minute.
|
18:25 - 18:27
|
Has anyone noticed that Momo is missing, too?
|
18:27 - 18:31
|
Oh, no! I knew it was only a matter of time!
|
18:32 - 18:35
|
Appa ate Momo!
|
18:35 - 18:37
|
Momo, I'm coming for you, buddy!
|
18:37 - 18:41
|
Sokka, Appa didn't eat Momo. He's probably with Aang.
|
18:42 - 18:45
|
That's just what Appa wants you to think.
|
18:45 - 18:47
|
Get out of the bison's mouth, Sokka.
|
18:47 - 18:49
|
We have a real problem here.
|
18:49 - 18:52
|
Aang is nowhere to be found and the comet is only two days away.
|
18:52 - 18:54
|
What should we do, Zuko?
|
18:55 - 18:56
|
I don't know.
|
18:59 - 19:01
|
Why are you all looking at me?
|
19:01 - 19:04
|
Well, you are kind of the expert on tracking Aang.
|
19:04 - 19:08
|
Yeah, if anyone's got experience hunting the Avatar, it's you.
|
19:13 - 19:15
|
Zuko, I don't wanna tell you how to do your job,
|
19:15 - 19:17
|
but why we are heading towards the Earth Kingdom?
|
19:18 - 19:19
|
There's no way Aang's there.
|
19:19 - 19:21
|
Just trust me.
|
19:41 - 19:43
|
Come on, slowpokes, faster!
|
20:04 - 20:06
|
Sorry I'm late, Father.
|
20:06 - 20:10
|
Good palanquin bearers are so hard to come by these days.
|
20:10 - 20:12
|
So, is everything ready for our departure?
|
20:12 - 20:15
|
There has been a change of plans, Azula.
|
20:15 - 20:16
|
What?
|
20:16 - 20:20
|
I've decided to lead the fleet of airships to Ba Sing Se alone.
|
20:20 - 20:23
|
You will remain here in the Fire Nation.
|
20:24 - 20:26
|
But, I thought we were going to do this together.
|
20:27 - 20:29
|
My decision is final.
|
20:30 - 20:32
|
You... You can't treat me like this!
|
20:32 - 20:34
|
You can't treat me like Zuko!
|
20:34 - 20:37
|
Azula, silence yourself.
|
20:37 - 20:39
|
But it was my idea to burn everything to the ground.
|
20:40 - 20:41
|
I deserve to be by your side!
|
20:42 - 20:44
|
Azula!
|
20:44 - 20:46
|
Listen to me.
|
20:46 - 20:49
|
I need you here to watch over the homeland.
|
20:49 - 20:53
|
It's a very important job that I can only entrust to you.
|
20:53 - 20:55
|
Really?
|
20:55 - 20:57
|
And for your loyalty,
|
20:57 - 21:01
|
I've decided to declare you the new Fire Lord.
|
21:02 - 21:04
|
Fire Lord Azula?
|
21:04 - 21:06
|
It does seems appropriate.
|
21:07 - 21:08
|
But, what about you?
|
21:08 - 21:12
|
Fire Lord Ozai is no more.
|
21:12 - 21:15
|
Just as the world will be reborn in fire,
|
21:15 - 21:19
|
I shall be reborn as the supreme ruler of the world.
|
21:20 - 21:23
|
From this moment on, I will be known as...
|
21:23 - 21:25
|
The Phoenix King!
|
21:57 - 21:59
|
And the reason you brought us
|
21:59 - 22:01
|
to a seedy Earth Kingdom tavern is what now?
|
22:01 - 22:02
|
June.
|
22:06 - 22:08
|
Oh, yeah, that weird bounty hunter
|
22:08 - 22:10
|
with the giant mole.
|
22:10 - 22:12
|
Mole? Her skin is flawless.
|
22:12 - 22:14
|
No, she has this giant mole-creature
|
22:14 - 22:15
|
she rides around on.
|
22:15 - 22:16
|
The Shirshu.
|
22:17 - 22:18
|
It's the only animal that can track Aang's scent
|
22:19 - 22:20
|
anywhere in the world.
|
22:20 - 22:22
|
It's the one shot we have of finding him.
|
22:35 - 22:39
|
I don't know who this June lady is, but I like her.
|
22:46 - 22:49
|
Hey, Momo. I just had the strangest dream.
|
22:52 - 22:54
|
Wait!
|
23:03 - 23:05
|
Where are we?
|
