[to Korra] I received your invitation, young Avatar. [Amon moves his hands towards Korra as if to remove her bending. Korra cringes and closes her eyes, but instead, Amon grabs her chin and turns her face towards him] Our showdown, while inevitable, is premature. Although it would be the simplest thing for me to take away your bending right now... I won’t. You’d only become a martyr. Benders from every nation would rally behind your untimely demise. But I assure you, I have a plan. And I’m saving you for last. Then, you’ll get your duel, and I will destroy you. (he knocks her out)

So... what do you think of Korra, in a "girlfriend" sort of way?
Ah, she's great. But I think it makes more sense for me to go for Asami.
I was talking about a girlfriend for me. Leave some ladies for the rest of us!
(looks startled) I know, that's... what I thought you meant!
Well?
I dunno, Bo. It doesn't seem like a good idea for you to date Korra.
You just said she was great, two seconds ago!
Yeah, Korra's a great athlete and Avatar and stuff, but... I don't know if she's really girlfriend material. She's more like a pal.
Bro, you're nuts! Korra and I are perfect for each other. She's strong, I'm strong. She's fun, I'm fun. She's beautiful; I'm gorgeous! (pause) Okay, I don't care what you think; I'm gonna ask Korra out.
Look, it just isn't smart to date a teammate- especially during the Tournament! Keep your head outta the clouds, and your priorities straight, okay?
So, how's it going with the tall, dreamy Firebender-boy? You've been spending a lot of time together lately.
Oh yeah, tell us all about the magical romance.
What? Listen to you two. I'm not interested in Mako or any romantic stuff. Besides he's all into that prissy, beautiful, elegant rich girl. But let's just pretend for a second I am interested in him; What would I do?
Ooh. I just read an historical saga where the heroine fell in love with the enemy general's son, who's supposed to marry the princess. You should do what she did.
Tell me.
She rode a dragon into battle and burned down the entire country. Then she jumped into a volcano. It was so romantic.
Eh?
No, no, no! The best way to win a boy's heart is to brew a love potion of rainbows and sunsets that makes true lovers sprout wings and fly to a magical castle in the sky, where they get married and eat clouds with spoons and use stars as ice cubes in their moonlight-punch. Forever and ever and ever!
The volcano is starting to make more sense to me now. [a laugh is heard and Korra turns to see Pema] Oh, hey, Pema. How long where you standing there?
PPema
Long enough... but trust me, I know what you're going through. Years ago, I was in the exact same situation... with Tenzin.
Daddy was in love with someone else before you?
PPema
That's right.
So what'd you do?
PPema
Well, for the longest time, I did nothing. I was so shy and scared of rejection... but watching my soul-mate spend his life with the wrong woman became too painful. So, I hung my chin out there and I confessed my love to Tenzin. And the rest is history.
KJKorra, Jinora and Ikki
Wowww!
TTahno
Well, well, well, if it isn't the Fire Ferrets. Probending's saddest excuse for a team. Tell me, how'd a couple of amateurs like you luck their way into the tournament? Especially you, uh-vatar. You know, if you'd like to learn how a real pro bends, I could give you some private lessons.
You wanna go toe to toe with me, pretty boy?
TTahno
Go for it. I'll give you the first shot.
Korra, don't. He's just trying to bait you. If you hit him, we're out of the tournament.
[Korra raises her hand making it seem like she's about to hit him square in the face. Suddenly, she whistles, causing Naga to burst through the window roaring right in Tahno's face. Startled and humiliated, Tahno quickly retreats]
I've never seen anyone rouse Tahno like that. You are one of a kind, Korra.
We need to talk. Look, sometimes you can be so infuriating-
Save your breath! You've already made it clear how you feel about me.
No, I haven't. What I'm trying to say is, as much as you drive me crazy... I also think you're pretty amazing.
So... you do like me?
Yes! But... (sighs) I like Asami, too. I don't know; things are complicated. I've been feeling really confused and-
Bolin, this isn't what you think-! (to Korra) Great, look what you did!
You're blaming me?!
You kissed me!
You kissed me back!
Arggh! (he runs after Bolin)
(sadly, to herself) Well played, Korra.
And Bolin loses his noodles. Literally. Which reminds me, this match is brought to you by our sponsor, Flameo Instant Noodles. Noodliest noodles in the United Republic.
(concerning Lin Beifong) What is her deal? Even when she's on my side she's against me!
I've known Lin since we were children. She's always been... challenging.
What did your father do to make her hate the Avatar so much?
My father and Lin got along famously. I'm afraid her issues are... with me.
Wait a second! It all makes sense now. You and Beifong, Beifong and you, you two were a couple!
WHAT?! How- Where'd you get that idea?
Ha! Your wife.
Crimeny! I'll have to have a word with her.
So, Pema stole you from Beifong. I'm surprised our "esteemed Chief of Police" didn't throw her in jail.
Oh, she tried. Anyway, Pema didn't steal me, Lin and I had been growing apart for some time. We both had... different goals in life- Why am I even telling you this?! It all happened a long time ago and we've moved past it.
Mmm, apparently Beifong hasn't.
What do you mea-- Of course she has. Anyway, this is none of your business.
See you at home, Mr. Heartbreaker! [laughs]
I can't believe your sweet-tempered father was reincarnated into that girl. She's tough as nails.
Reminds me of someone else I knew at that age. You two might get along if you would only give her a chance.
Hmph.
[As the Equalist begin attacking the Pro-Bending Arena]:
Folks, there is some sort of electrical disturbance in the stands. Metalbender cops are dropping like bumbleflies. There appear to be masked members of the audience wielding strange devices on their hands. [an Equalist enters the booth]: One of them is in the booth with me right now, folks. He is leveling one of those glove devices at me now and I believe he is about to electrocute me. I am currently wetting my pants.
[Amon and the Equalists appear in front of the Wolfbats]:
TTahno
What's going on here, ref?
RReferee
I don't know!
TTahno
[the Equalists walk towards them]: Alright. You want a piece of the Wolfbats? Here it comes! [Tahno and his teammates try to fend off the Equalists, but are effortlessly defeated, and the Equalists bind Tahno's arms, leaving him defenseless]: Wait, please don't do this! I'll give you the championship pot, I'll-I'll give you everything, just please don't take my bending!
I believe I have your attention, benders of Republic City. So once again the Wolfbats are your Pro-Bending Champions. It seems fitting that you celebrate three bullies who cheated their way to victory, because every day you threaten and abuse your fellow non-bending citizens, just like the Wolfbats did to their opponents tonight. Those men were supposedly the best in the bending world and yet it took only a few moments for me to cleanse them of their impurity. Let this be a warning to all you benders out there; if any of you stand in my way, you will meet the same fate.
I can't believe Amon did this. I played right into his hand.
He played us all. Republic City is at war.
KKatara
Oh, no.
[gasps]
KKarata
[show the end of "The Puppetmaster" from Avatar: The Last Airbender, from the page point of views, tearfuls] Stop... please!
[back in the present day, shocked] Hey! What did you do that for?!
What else to Hama bloodbends Katara do. It saw you.
Hama is a bad guy to do!
What has done with Katara?!
JJournalist
Is it true that Cabbage Corp is conspiring with the Equalists?
The evidence points in that direction, but the investigation is ongoing. For the time being, we have frozen Mr. Gan-Lan's assets and are closing Cabbage Corp.
LGLau Gan-Lan
No, not my Cabbage Corp!
I have to admit. I had you pegged wrong, I thought you were kinda prissy. No offense.
It's alright. People usually assume that I'm Daddy's helpless little girl but I can handle myself. I mean I've been in self-defense classes since I was this high. My dad made sure I would always be able to protect myself.
Smart guy.
