[Tarrlok is in his office with the council page, looking at papers. A window opens and the papers get blown over the office, Korra is standing in the window]
You and I need to talk! [Steps into the office]
[To the council page] Are any of the other council members here?
I believe everyone has gone home for the night.
Then you should do the same.
Are you sure, sir?
Leave us. [council page leaves] You obviously have something on your mind? Spit it out.
Don't you see? You're doing exactly what Amon says is wrong with benders; you are using your powers to oppress and intimidate people.
And you don't?
Of... of course not!
Isn't that what you came here to do; intimidate me into releasing your friends? [Korra glares at him]] See, that's what I admire about you, Korra: Your willingness to go to extremes in order to get what you want. It is a quality we both share.
You and I are nothing alike!
Look, I'll make you a deal: you fall in line and do what I say, and I'll release your friends.
That's why you arrested them? To get to me?
I need your answer.
No. You may be able to manipulate Chief Saikhan into following you, but it won't work on me.
[turns away angrily towards the direction of his waterfall] You will regret that decision.
You need to be stopped! You're just as bad as Amon.
[Widens eyes with anger] I've tried to work with you Korra, but you've made that impossible. [Uses his Waterbending to attack Korra]
