Jinora and Wan Shi Tong in “Unfinished Business”

[Jinora enters Wan Shi Tong's library with Furryfoot]

Wow. I could just stay in here forever, reading.

[Wan Shi Tong suddenly flies down and lands in front of her]

WSWan Shi Tong

(coldly) The last human who said that... is still here.

[He indicates Professor Zhei's mummified corpse]

...Professor Zhei.

WSWan Shi Tong

I see you have some knowledge of the past, so you should know that humans are no longer allowed in my library. Get out.

[Furryfoot squeaks in fear and retreats]

I thought anyone could come in if they brought you some new knowledge.

WSWan Shi Tong

Those are the old rules! Besides, what is a little girl going to teach Wan Shi Tong, he who knows ten thousand things?

Well, since you've been down in the Spirit World, the humans have invented radio.

WSWan Shi Tong

Yes, I am well aware of the radio.

But do you know how it works?

WSWan Shi Tong

Of course I do. There is a box, and inside the box there is a tiny man, who sings and plays musical instruments.

Actually: when we speak, our voices produce sound waves. Radio takes those sound waves and converts them into electromagnetic energy, that is transmitted through the spectrum-

WSWan Shi Tong

All right, enough! (pause) I did not know this. Apparently, I have been fed some misinformation about the existence of tiny men in boxes. (glares at his fox-messenger, who whimpers and retreats.) Still, I'm not interested in that human garbage. Now, go away.

My grandfather is the Avatar, and I came to the Spirit World with the new Avatar to find the Spirit Portals. I would think that you'd wanna help me.

WSWan Shi Tong

... You came with the Avatar, hmm? Well, why didn't you say so? Fine, you may look around- but don't break anything! I'll know.

[He flies off]
