The Legend of Korra · Season 1, Episode 15

Tenzin and Pema in “Unfinished Business”

(muttering to himself as he meditates) How could she think... Focus! Breathe... (inhales) Bumi ruins everything. Inhale...focus.

PPema

(comes in and sits by him) Taking a little break from teaching?

(sadly) I failed. Bumi quit, and the rest of the airbenders want to go home! Can't they see that I'm trying to re-build an entire culture?!

PPema

You know, just because these people can airbend, it doesn't automatically make them Air Nomads.

...Tell me about it.

PPema

I remember when I moved out of my parents' house, to become an Air Acolyte. That first night, I was so scared and lonely- and the bed was so hard!

It's actually better for your back. (Pema gives him a look) Sorry.

PPema

The point is, I really wanted to be there- but it still took time for me to adjust and feel like I was a part of it all! These people are probably feeling the same way. You have to be patient.

(stares at her) Now I know how Korra feels when I'm talking to her. (leans forward and kisses his wife) Thank you, Pema.
