0:02 - 0:03 Water...
0:04 - 0:05 Earth...
0:06 - 0:07 Fire...
0:08 - 0:10 Air.
0:11 - 0:14 Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony.
0:15 - 0:18 Then everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked.
0:19 - 0:20 Only the Avatar,
0:20 - 0:22 master of all four elements,
0:22 - 0:23 could stop them.
0:23 - 0:25 But when the world needed him most,
0:25 - 0:26 he vanished.
0:27 - 0:28 A hundred years passed,
0:28 - 0:30 and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar,
0:30 - 0:32 an airbender named Aang,
0:33 - 0:35 and although his airbending skills are great,
0:35 - 0:38 he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone.
0:38 - 0:41 But I believe Aang can save the world.
1:03 - 1:05 Wait till you see it, Katara.
1:05 - 1:07 The air temple is one of the most beautiful places
1:07 - 1:08 in the world.
1:08 - 1:10 Aang, I know you're excited,
1:10 - 1:11 but it's been a hundred years
1:11 - 1:12 since you've been home.
1:13 - 1:14 That's why I'm so excited!
1:14 - 1:17 It's just that a lot can change in all that time.
1:17 - 1:18 I know,
1:18 - 1:20 but I need to see it for myself.
1:24 - 1:25 Wake up, Sokka.
1:25 - 1:27 Air temple, here we come!
1:29 - 1:31 Sleep now. Temple later.
1:38 - 1:39 Sokka, wake up!
1:39 - 1:41 There's a prickle snake in your sleeping bag!
1:42 - 1:43 Aah!
1:43 - 1:44 Get it off! Get it off!
1:44 - 1:45 Aah!
1:46 - 1:47 Heh heh heh!
1:47 - 1:48 Great. You're awake.
1:48 - 1:49 Let's go.
1:54 - 1:56 Uncle, I want the repairs made
1:56 - 1:57 as quickly as possible.
1:57 - 1:58 I don't want to stay too long
1:58 - 2:00 and risk losing his trail.
2:00 - 2:01 You mean the Avatar?
2:01 - 2:02 Don't mention his name on these docks.
2:03 - 2:04 Once word gets out that he's alive,
2:04 - 2:06 every firebender will be out looking for him,
2:06 - 2:08 and I don't want anyone getting in the way.
2:08 - 2:10 Getting in the way of what,
2:10 - 2:11 Prince Zuko.
2:12 - 2:13 Captain Zhao.
2:13 - 2:14 It's commander now.
2:14 - 2:16 And General Iroh,
2:16 - 2:18 great hero of our nation.
2:18 - 2:20 Retired general.
2:20 - 2:21 The Fire Lord's brother and son
2:22 - 2:23 are welcome guests anytime.
2:24 - 2:25 What brings you to my harbor?
2:25 - 2:27 Our ship is being repaired.
2:29 - 2:31 That's quite a bit of damage.
2:31 - 2:34 Yes. You wouldn't believe what happened.
2:34 - 2:36 Uncle, tell Commander Zhao what happened.
2:36 - 2:38 Yes, I will do that.
2:38 - 2:40 It was incredible.
2:41 - 2:42 What, did we crash or something?
2:43 - 2:46 Yes! Right into an Earth Kingdom ship.
2:47 - 2:48 Really?
2:48 - 2:51 You must regale me with all the thrilling details.
2:51 - 2:53 Join me for a drink?
2:53 - 2:55 Sorry, but we have to go.
2:55 - 2:56 Prince Zuko,
2:56 - 2:59 show Commander Zhao your respect.
2:59 - 3:01 We would be honored to join you.
3:02 - 3:05 Do you have any ginseng tea? It's my favorite.
3:14 - 3:16 Hey, stomach, be quiet, all right?
3:16 - 3:17 I'm trying to find us some food.
3:24 - 3:27 Hey! Who ate all my blubbered seal jerky?
3:27 - 3:29 Oh. That was food?
3:29 - 3:31 I used it to start the campfire last night.
3:31 - 3:32 Sorry.
3:32 - 3:34 You what?
3:34 - 3:35 Aww.
3:35 - 3:37 No wonder the flames smelled so good.
3:40 - 3:41 The Potola mountain range!
3:41 - 3:43 We're almost there!
3:43 - 3:45 Aang, before we get to the temple,
3:45 - 3:47 I want to talk to you about the airbenders.
3:47 - 3:48 What about them?
3:48 - 3:49 Well...
3:50 - 3:51 I just want you to be prepared
3:51 - 3:52 for what you might see.
3:53 - 3:55 The Fire Nation is ruthless.
3:55 - 3:57 They killed my mother,
3:57 - 3:58 and they could have done the same
3:58 - 4:00 to your people.
4:00 - 4:02 Just because no one has seen an airbender
4:02 - 4:04 doesn't mean the Fire Nation killed them all.
4:04 - 4:05 They probably escaped.
4:05 - 4:07 I know it's hard to accept.
4:07 - 4:09 You don't understand, Katara.
4:09 - 4:10 The only way to get to an airbender temple
4:10 - 4:12 is on a flying bison,
4:12 - 4:14 and I doubt the Fire Nation has any flying bison.
4:14 - 4:15 Right, Appa?
4:16 - 4:18 Yip yip!
4:33 - 4:36 There it is, the Southern Air Temple.
4:37 - 4:39 Aang, it's amazing!
4:40 - 4:42 We're home, buddy. We're home.
4:47 - 4:48 And by year's end,
4:48 - 4:50 the Earth Kingdom capital will be under our rule.
4:51 - 4:53 The Fire Lord will finally claim
4:54 - 4:55 victory in this war.
4:55 - 4:57 If my father thinks the rest of the world
4:57 - 4:58 will follow him willingly,
4:58 - 4:59 then he is a fool.
5:00 - 5:01 Two years at sea
5:01 - 5:02 have done little to temper your tongue.
5:03 - 5:07 So, how's your search for the Avatar going?
5:09 - 5:12 Uh... My fault entirely.
5:12 - 5:14 We haven't found him yet.
5:14 - 5:16 Did you really expect to?
5:16 - 5:18 The Avatar died a hundred years ago
5:18 - 5:21 along with the rest of the airbenders.
5:22 - 5:24 Unless you found some evidence
5:24 - 5:26 that the Avatar is alive.
5:26 - 5:28 No. Nothing.
5:29 - 5:31 Prince Zuko, the Avatar is the only one
5:31 - 5:32 who can stop the Fire Nation
5:32 - 5:34 from winning this war.
5:34 - 5:36 If you have an ounce of loyalty left,
5:36 - 5:38 you'll tell me what you found.
5:38 - 5:41 I haven't found anything.
5:41 - 5:43 It's like you said―
5:43 - 5:46 The Avatar probably died a long time ago.
5:46 - 5:48 Come on, uncle. We're going.
5:49 - 5:50 Commander Zhao,
5:51 - 5:53 we interrogated the crew as you instructed.
5:53 - 5:54 They confirmed Prince Zuko
5:54 - 5:56 had the Avatar in custody
5:56 - 5:57 but let him escape.
5:58 - 6:00 Now remind me,
6:00 - 6:04 how exactly was your ship damaged?
6:12 - 6:14 So where do I get something to eat?
6:14 - 6:17 You're lucky enough to be one of the first outsiders
6:17 - 6:19 to ever visit an airbender temple,
6:20 - 6:22 and all you can think about is food?
6:22 - 6:24 I'm just a simple guy with simple needs.
6:26 - 6:27 So that's where my friends and I
6:27 - 6:28 would play airball,
6:28 - 6:30 and over there is where the bison would sleep.
6:30 - 6:31 And...
6:32 - 6:34 What's wrong?
6:34 - 6:37 This place used to be full of monks and lemurs and bison.
6:37 - 6:39 Now there's just a bunch of weeds.
6:41 - 6:44 I can't believe how much things have changed.
6:45 - 6:46 So, uh,
6:46 - 6:48 this airball game― How do you play?
7:01 - 7:02 Ugh!
7:02 - 7:03 Ooh!
7:04 - 7:05 Ha ha ha!
7:06 - 7:08 Aang seven, Sokka zero.
7:09 - 7:10 Making him feel better
7:10 - 7:12 is putting me in a world of hurt.
7:17 - 7:19 Katara, check this out.
7:20 - 7:21 Fire Nation.
7:21 - 7:22 We should tell him.
7:23 - 7:25 Aang, there's something you need to see.
7:26 - 7:27 Ok.
7:32 - 7:33 Oh!
7:33 - 7:34 What is it?
7:34 - 7:38 Uh... Just a new waterbending move I learned.
7:38 - 7:40 Nice one. But enough practicing.
7:40 - 7:42 We have a whole temple to see.
7:44 - 7:46 You know, you can't protect him forever.
7:53 - 7:54 Katara, firebenders were here.
7:54 - 7:56 You can't pretend they weren't.
7:56 - 7:58 I can for Aang's sake.
7:58 - 8:01 If he finds out that the Fire Nation invaded his home,
8:01 - 8:02 he'll be devastated.
8:02 - 8:03 Hey, guys!
8:04 - 8:05 I want you to meet somebody.
8:05 - 8:06 Who's that?
8:06 - 8:08 Monk Gyatso,
8:08 - 8:09 the greatest airbender in the world.
8:10 - 8:12 He taught me everything I know.
8:16 - 8:20 But the true secret is in the gooey center.
8:20 - 8:21 Hmm.
8:21 - 8:23 My ancient cake making technique
8:23 - 8:25 isn't the only thing on your mind,
8:26 - 8:27 is it, Aang?
8:27 - 8:29 This whole Avatar thing―
8:29 - 8:31 Maybe the monks made a mistake.
8:32 - 8:33 The only mistake they made
8:33 - 8:36 was telling you before you turned 16.
8:36 - 8:39 But we can't concern ourselves with what was.
8:39 - 8:42 We must act on what is.
8:46 - 8:47 But, Gyatso,
8:47 - 8:49 how do I know if I'm ready for this?
8:50 - 8:52 Your questions will be answered
8:52 - 8:56 when you're old enough to enter the air temple sanctuary.
8:56 - 8:58 Inside, you will meet someone
8:59 - 9:01 who will guide you on your journey.
9:01 - 9:02 Who is it?
9:02 - 9:04 When you are ready,
9:04 - 9:06 he will reveal himself to you.
9:06 - 9:07 Hmm.
9:07 - 9:08 Now...
9:09 - 9:12 Are you going to help me with these cakes
9:12 - 9:13 or not?
9:13 - 9:14 All right.
9:16 - 9:18 One... Two...
9:18 - 9:19 Three.
9:29 - 9:31 Your aim has improved greatly,
9:31 - 9:33 my young pupil.
9:37 - 9:39 You must miss him.
9:39 - 9:40 Yeah.
9:40 - 9:42 Where are you going?
9:42 - 9:43 The air temple sanctuary.
9:43 - 9:45 There's someone I'm ready to meet.
9:53 - 9:54 But, Aang,
9:54 - 9:55 no one could have survived in there
9:55 - 9:57 for a hundred years.
9:57 - 9:59 It's not impossible.
9:59 - 10:01 I survived in the iceberg for that long.
10:01 - 10:02 Good point.
10:02 - 10:04 Katara, whoever's in there
10:04 - 10:06 might help me figure out this Avatar thing.
10:06 - 10:08 And whoever's in there might have a medley
10:08 - 10:11 of delicious cured meats.
10:12 - 10:13 Ooh!
10:13 - 10:14 Unh!
10:14 - 10:15 Ohh.
10:16 - 10:17 I don't suppose you have a key.
10:17 - 10:20 The key, Sokka, is airbending.
10:49 - 10:50 Hello?
10:51 - 10:52 Anyone home?
11:05 - 11:06 So a 12-year-old boy
11:06 - 11:08 bested you and your firebenders.
11:09 - 11:11 You're more pathetic than I thought.
11:11 - 11:12 I underestimated him once,
11:12 - 11:14 but it will not happen again.
11:14 - 11:15 No, it will not,
11:15 - 11:17 because you won't have a second chance.
11:17 - 11:18 Commander Zhao,
11:18 - 11:20 I've been hunting the Avatar for two years, and I―
11:20 - 11:21 And you failed.
11:22 - 11:23 Capturing the Avatar is too important
11:23 - 11:25 to leave in a teenager's hands.
11:25 - 11:26 He's mine now.
11:28 - 11:29 Keep them here.
11:33 - 11:35 More tea, please.
11:50 - 11:52 Statues?
11:52 - 11:53 That's it?
11:54 - 11:55 Where's the meat?
11:55 - 11:57 Who are all these people?
11:57 - 11:59 I'm not sure.
11:59 - 12:01 But it feels like I know them somehow.
12:01 - 12:02 Look!
12:02 - 12:03 That one's an airbender!
12:03 - 12:05 And this one's a waterbender.
12:05 - 12:06 They're lined up in a pattern.
12:07 - 12:10 Air, water, earth, and fire.
12:10 - 12:12 That's the Avatar cycle.
12:12 - 12:14 Of course. They're Avatars.
12:15 - 12:17 All these people are your past lives, Aang.
12:17 - 12:20 Wow! There's so many.
12:23 - 12:24 Past lives?
12:24 - 12:26 Katara, you really believe in that stuff?
12:26 - 12:27 It's true.
12:28 - 12:30 When the Avatar dies,
12:30 - 12:32 he's reincarnated into the next nation in the cycle.
12:38 - 12:40 Aang, snap out of it.
12:41 - 12:42 Huh?
12:42 - 12:44 Who is that?
12:44 - 12:46 That's Avatar Roku, the Avatar before me.
12:47 - 12:48 You were a firebender?
12:49 - 12:51 No wonder I didn't trust you when we first met.
12:51 - 12:52 There's no writing.
12:52 - 12:53 How do you know his name?
12:53 - 12:54 I'm not sure.
12:55 - 12:57 I just know it somehow.
12:58 - 13:00 You just couldn't get any weirder.
13:10 - 13:12 Firebender. Nobody make a sound.
13:12 - 13:13 You're making a sound.
13:13 - 13:14 Shh! Shh!
13:22 - 13:23 That firebender won't know what hit him.
13:34 - 13:35 Lemur!
13:35 - 13:36 Dinner.
13:36 - 13:38 Don't listen to him.
13:38 - 13:39 You're gonna be my new pet.
13:39 - 13:40 Not if I get him first!
13:45 - 13:46 Wait! Come back!
13:46 - 13:48 I want to eat you!
13:55 - 13:56 Ha ha ha!
13:58 - 13:59 Aah! Unh!
14:11 - 14:12 Hey! No fair!
14:18 - 14:19 My search party is ready.
14:19 - 14:20 Once I'm out to sea,
14:21 - 14:22 my guards will escort you back to your ship,
14:22 - 14:24 And you will be free to go.
14:24 - 14:26 Why? Are you worried
14:26 - 14:28 I'm going to try and stop you?
14:28 - 14:30 Ha ha ha!
14:30 - 14:32 You... Stop me?
14:32 - 14:33 Impossible.
14:34 - 14:35 Don't underestimate me, Zhao.
14:35 - 14:37 I will capture the Avatar before you.
14:38 - 14:39 Prince Zuko, that's enough.
14:39 - 14:42 You can't compete with me.
14:42 - 14:44 I have hundreds of warships under my command,
14:44 - 14:45 And you,
14:46 - 14:47 you're just a banished prince.
14:47 - 14:50 No home, no allies.
14:50 - 14:52 Your own father doesn't even want you.
14:53 - 14:54 You're wrong.
14:54 - 14:56 Once I deliver the Avatar to my father,
14:56 - 14:58 he will welcome me home with honor
14:58 - 15:00 and restore my rightful place on the throne.
15:01 - 15:03 If your father really wanted you home,
15:03 - 15:05 he would have let you return by now,
15:05 - 15:07 Avatar or no Avatar.
15:07 - 15:09 But in his eyes, you are a failure
15:09 - 15:11 and a disgrace to the Fire Nation.
15:11 - 15:13 That's not true.
15:13 - 15:15 You have the scar to prove it.
15:15 - 15:17 Aah! Maybe you'd like one to match!
15:17 - 15:19 Is that a challenge?
15:19 - 15:22 An Agni Kai at sunset.
15:22 - 15:24 Very well.
15:24 - 15:26 It's a shame your father won't be here
15:26 - 15:28 to watch me humiliate you.
15:28 - 15:30 I guess your uncle will do.
15:31 - 15:32 Prince Zuko,
15:32 - 15:34 have you forgotten what happened
15:34 - 15:35 the last time you dueled a master?
15:36 - 15:38 I will never forget.
15:44 - 15:46 Hey! Come back!
15:46 - 15:48 Come on out, little lemur.
15:48 - 15:50 That hungry guy won't bother you anymore.
15:54 - 15:56 Firebenders?
15:56 - 15:58 They were here?
16:05 - 16:06 Gyatso.
16:08 - 16:09 Hey, Aang, you find my dinner yet?
16:11 - 16:14 Aang, I wasn't really gonna eat the lemur, ok?
16:14 - 16:16 Oh, man.
16:17 - 16:18 Come on, Aang.
16:18 - 16:19 Everything will be all right.
16:19 - 16:20 Let's get out of here.
16:37 - 16:38 Aang!
16:49 - 16:52 Send word to the Fire Lord immediately.
16:52 - 16:54 The Avatar has returned.
17:01 - 17:03 Aang, come on!
17:03 - 17:05 Snap out of it! Aah!
17:08 - 17:09 Aah! Unh!
17:15 - 17:16 What happened?
17:17 - 17:19 He found out firebenders killed Gyatso.
17:19 - 17:21 Oh, no. It's his Avatar spirit.
17:21 - 17:23 He must have triggered it.
17:23 - 17:25 I'm gonna try and calm him down.
17:25 - 17:26 Well, do it,
17:26 - 17:28 before he blows us off the mountain!
17:43 - 17:47 Remember your firebending basics, Prince Zuko.
17:48 - 17:49 They are your greatest weapons.
17:49 - 17:51 I refuse to let him win.
17:53 - 17:55 This will be over quickly.
18:34 - 18:36 Basics, Zuko.
18:36 - 18:37 Break his root.
18:38 - 18:39 Unh!
18:45 - 18:46 Unh!
18:55 - 18:57 Aah!
19:15 - 19:16 Unh!
19:24 - 19:25 Do it!
19:30 - 19:31 That's it?
19:31 - 19:33 Your father raised a coward.
19:33 - 19:36 Next time you get in my way, I promise,
19:36 - 19:37 I won't hold back.
19:48 - 19:49 Unh!
19:50 - 19:52 No, Prince Zuko.
19:52 - 19:55 Do not taint your victory.
19:55 - 19:57 So this is how the great Commander Zhao
19:57 - 19:59 acts in defeat?
20:00 - 20:01 Disgraceful.
20:01 - 20:03 Even in exile,
20:03 - 20:07 my nephew is more honorable than you.
20:07 - 20:09 Thanks again for the tea.
20:09 - 20:11 It was delicious.
20:16 - 20:18 Did you really mean that, uncle?
20:18 - 20:19 Of course.
20:19 - 20:22 I told you ginseng tea is my favorite.
20:27 - 20:30 Aang, I know you're upset,
20:30 - 20:31 and I know how hard it is
20:31 - 20:33 to lose the people you love.
20:34 - 20:37 I went through the same thing when I lost my mom.
20:38 - 20:40 Monk Gyatso and the other airbenders
20:40 - 20:42 may be gone,
20:42 - 20:45 but you still have a family.
20:45 - 20:47 Sokka and I, we're your family now.
20:57 - 20:58 Katara and I
20:58 - 21:00 aren't gonna let anything happen to you.
21:00 - 21:01 Promise.
21:06 - 21:07 I'm sorry.
21:07 - 21:08 It's ok.
21:08 - 21:10 It wasn't your fault.
21:10 - 21:11 But you were right.
21:11 - 21:13 And if firebenders found this temple,
21:13 - 21:15 That means they found the other ones, too.
21:16 - 21:18 I really am the last airbender.
21:26 - 21:27 Everything's packed.
21:28 - 21:29 You ready to go?
21:29 - 21:30 How is Roku supposed to help me
21:31 - 21:32 if I can't talk to him?
21:32 - 21:34 Maybe you'll find a way.
21:43 - 21:44 Mm! Mm!
21:44 - 21:46 Looks like you made a new friend, Sokka.
21:47 - 21:49 Can't talk. Must eat.
21:50 - 21:51 Hey, little guy.
21:54 - 21:57 You, me, and Appa―
21:57 - 21:59 We're all that's left of this place.
21:59 - 22:01 We have to stick together.
22:01 - 22:03 Katara, Sokka,
22:03 - 22:06 say hello to the newest member of our family.
22:06 - 22:07 What are you gonna name him?
22:10 - 22:12 Momo.
