TBToph Beifong
What are you doing here, Aang? I told you, I have this under control.
Aang
Under normal circumstances I wouldn't get involved, but if what those victims said is true, we’re not dealing with a normal criminal.
TBToph Beifong
Fine, follow me, Twinkletoes.
Aang
Toph, I'm 40 years old. You think you can stop with the nicknames?
TBToph Beifong
'Fraid not.
Aang
[strained] Yakone! You won't get away with this!
YYakone
[laughs] Republic City's mine, Avatar. I'll be back one day to claim it.
YYakone
This time I'm gonna put you to sleep, for good!
Aang
I'm taking away your bending ... for good!
Aang
It's over.
Aang ... this whole time, you were trying to warn me about Tarrlok. [Tarrlok enters the basement.]
[furiously] My life is a disaster now, thanks to you!
So your little bloodbending secret's out? [Tarrlok growls in anger] And I know how you bloodbent me without a full moon: you're Yakone's son!?
[Paused] [Pause: Never Tarrlok!] I was his son, but in order to win Republic City, I had to become someone else. My father failed because he tried to rule the city from its rotten underbelly. My plan was perfect. I was to be the city's savior. But you, you ruined everything!
Tarrlok, the jig is up, and you have nowhere to go.
Oh no. No, I'll escape, and start a new life. And you're coming as my hostage, or kills me.
[angrily pounding on the door of the box] You'll never get away with this!
Not now Tenzin. I just wanna be left alone.
Aang
But you called me here.
[Korra looks up and sees Aang, not Tenzin, standing beside her.]
Aang
You have finally connected with your spiritual self.
Aang
When we hit our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change.
[Behind Aang, the spirits of the past Avatars appear to Korra. Korra closes her eyes as Aang enters the Avatar State and restores Korra's bending. The past Avatars fade away. Korra opens her eyes, which are now glowing white. She has unlocked her ability to enter the Avatar State. Korra rises into the air using airbending, and unleashes waves of airbending, firebending, and earthbending, then uses waterbending to crash waves against the cliff. Korra lowers herself to the ground, and exits the Avatar State. She notices Mako behind her. He smiles at her. She runs to hug him.]
I love you, too. [Mako and Korra kiss.]
[Later, at the Avatar Temple, Lin kneels on one knee in front of Korra. Korra touches her hands to Lin's forehead and upper chest, and she enters the Avatar State, restoring Lin's bending. Lin demonstrates her newly-restored earthbending by levitating the rocks surrounding the temple. She lowers the rocks.]
[Korra bows to Lin]
I am so proud of you, Avatar Korra.
Korra this fight is not yet over.
Aang
Vaatu cannot win. So do not give up!
RRoku
Do not give in at all costs!
KKyoshi
Do not give in to 10,000 years of darkness and chaos.
RARaava, and all past Avatars[all together]
For you are the one true Avatar!
KWKorra[with Raava's voice encompassing her own]
Darkness cannot win. You cannot win!
[Tenzin is slowly being driven mad by his own fear]
I am the son of Avatar Aang. I am the hope for future generations of airbenders. I am the son of Avatar Aang!
Aang
Hello, my son.
Dad, I've failed you. I am no spiritual leader, and I've let the world down. I'll never be the man you were.
Aang
You are right. You are trying to hold on to a false perception of yourself. You are not me, and you should not be me. You are Tenzin.
Tenzin': I am not a reflection of my father. I am Tenzin. I am Tenzin!
