[Yon Rha is heading home in the rain; he hears someone following him several times, then finally stops]
Nobody sneaks up on me without getting burned!
[He Firebends at a bush behind him, but nothing happens. As he turns to continue, he falls over a tripwire; when he tries to get up, a fire blast stops him]
We weren't behind the bush. [he advances on Yon Rha] And I wouldn't try Firebending again.
Whoever you are, take my money. Take whatever you want! I'll cooperate.
[Approaches and pulls back her hood] Do you know who I am?
No...I'm not sure.
[angrily] Oh, you'd better remember me, like your life depends on it! Why don't you take a closer look?!
Yes... yes! I remember you, now! You're that little Water Tribe girl!
[In a flashback, Yon Rha is shown confronting Kya and a young Katara during his raid on the Southern Water Tribe.]
Just let her go, and I'll give you the information you want.
You heard your mother. Get out of here!
Mom... I'm scared...
Go find your Dad, sweetie. I'll handle this. [Katara runs off]
Now, tell me: who is it? Who's the Waterbender?
There are no Waterbenders here. The Fire Nation took them all away, a long time ago.
You're lying. My source says there's one Waterbender left in the Southern Water Tribe. We're not leaving until we find the Waterbender!
If I tell you... do you promise to leave the rest of the village alone? [Yon Rha grunts and nods]... It's me. Take me as your prisoner.
[smirks] I'm afraid I'm not taking prisoners, today. [In the present, he gulps]
... She lied to you! [turns away, tearfully] She was protecting the last Waterbender.
What?! Who?
[spins around, furious] ME! [She bends the rain, stopping it mid-fall, then forms the water into a huge dome around them; Zuko watches, amazed. Katara morphs the water into ice spears and hurls them at Yon Rha, who cowers, but she stops them inches from his face, then dissolves them back into water]
[scrambling to grovel in front of her] I did a bad thing, I know I did! And you deserve revenge! So why don't you take my mother? That would be fair!
I always wondered, what kind of person could do such a thing. But, now that I see you, I think I understand. There's just...nothing inside you. Nothing at all. You're pathetic, and sad, and empty.
[whimpers] Please, spare me!
But as much as I hate you... I just can't do it.
