1. Water, earth,
Copy !req
2. fire, air...
Copy !req
3. Long ago, the four nations
lived together in harmony.
Copy !req
4. Then everything changed
when the Fire Nation attacked.
Copy !req
5. Only the Avatar, master of all
four elements, could stop them.
Copy !req
6. But when the world needed him most,
Copy !req
7. he vanished.
Copy !req
8. A hundred years passed, and my brother
and I discovered the new Avatar,
Copy !req
9. an airbender named Aang.
Copy !req
10. And although his
airbending skills are great,
Copy !req
11. he has a lot to learn
before he's ready to save anyone.
Copy !req
12. But I believe Aang can save the world.
Copy !req
13. The Earth Kingdom City of Omashu!
Copy !req
14. I used to always come here
to visit my friend Bumi.
Copy !req
15. Wow!
Copy !req
16. We don't have cities like this
in the South Pole.
Copy !req
17. They have buildings here
that don't melt.
Copy !req
18. Well, let's go, slowpokes.
Copy !req
19. The real fun is inside the city!
Copy !req
20. Wait, Aang.
Copy !req
21. It could be dangerous
Copy !req
22. if people find out you're the Avatar.
Copy !req
23. You need a disguise.
Copy !req
24. So, what am I supposed to do,
Copy !req
25. grow a mustache?
Copy !req
26. Oh, this is so itchy.
Copy !req
27. How do you live in this stuff?
Copy !req
28. Great!
Copy !req
29. Now you look just like my grandfather.
Copy !req
30. Technically, Aang is 112 years old.
Copy !req
31. Now, let's get to skipping,
young whipper snappers!
Copy !req
32. The big city awaits!
Copy !req
33. You guys are gonna love Omashu.
Copy !req
34. The people here are the friendliest
in the world.
Copy !req
35. What kind of slum
do you think this is?
Copy !req
36. No! My cabbages!
Copy !req
37. Just keep smiling.
Copy !req
38. Heh heh heh.
Copy !req
39. State your business!
Copy !req
40. My business is my business, young man,
Copy !req
41. and none of yours.
Copy !req
42. I've got half a mind
to bend you over my knee
Copy !req
43. and paddle your backside.
Copy !req
44. Settle down, old timer.
Copy !req
45. Just tell me who you are.
Copy !req
46. Name's Bonzoo Pippenpadlopsicopolis
the Third.
Copy !req
47. And these are my grandkids.
Copy !req
48. Hi. June Pippenpadlopsicopolis.
Copy !req
49. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
50. You seem like
a responsible young lady.
Copy !req
51. See that your grandfather
stays out of trouble.
Copy !req
52. Enjoy Omashu.
Copy !req
53. We will.
Copy !req
54. Wait a minute!
Copy !req
55. You're a strong young boy.
Copy !req
56. Show some respect for the elderly
Copy !req
57. and carry your grandfather's bag.
Copy !req
58. Good idea.
Copy !req
59. This is
the Omashu delivery system...
Copy !req
60. Miles and miles of tubes and chutes.
Copy !req
61. Earthbending brings the packages up,
Copy !req
62. and gravity brings them down.
Copy !req
63. Great, so they get their mail on time.
Copy !req
64. They do get their mail on time.
Copy !req
65. But my friend Bumi
found a better use for these chutes.
Copy !req
66. Look around you!
Copy !req
67. What do you see?
Copy !req
68. Um... The mail system.
Copy !req
69. Instead of seeing
what they want you to see,
Copy !req
70. you gotta open your brain
to the possibilities.
Copy !req
71. A package-sending system?
Copy !req
72. The world's greatest super slide!
Copy !req
73. Bumi, you're a mad genius.
Copy !req
74. Yeah! Ha ha ha ha!
Copy !req
75. One ride...
Copy !req
76. Then we're off to the North Pole...
Copy !req
77. Airbender's honor.
Copy !req
78. This sounded like fun at first,
Copy !req
79. but now that I'm here,
Copy !req
80. I'm starting to have second thoughts!
Copy !req
81. Yeah!
Copy !req
82. Ha ha ha ha!
Copy !req
83. I'm on it!
Copy !req
84. Men, you'll be going off
to combat soon.
Copy !req
85. It's important that you be prepared
for anything.
Copy !req
86. Aang, do something!
Copy !req
87. Use your airbending!
Copy !req
88. Yeah! Good idea!
Copy !req
89. That will make us go even faster.
Copy !req
90. Sorry!
Copy !req
91. My cabbages!
Copy !req
92. You're gonna pay for this!
Copy !req
93. Two cabbages, please.
Copy !req
94. Hmm?
Copy !req
95. Your Majesty,
Copy !req
96. these juveniles were arrested
for vandalism,
Copy !req
97. traveling under false pretenses,
Copy !req
98. and malicious destruction of cabbages.
Copy !req
99. Off with their heads!
Copy !req
100. One for each head of cabbage!
Copy !req
101. Silence!
Copy !req
102. Only the king can pass down judgment.
Copy !req
103. What is your judgment, sire?
Copy !req
104. Hmm.
Copy !req
105. Throw them...
Copy !req
106. A feast.
Copy !req
107. Ugh!
Copy !req
108. Huh?
Copy !req
109. The people in my city
Copy !req
110. have gotten fat from too many feasts.
Copy !req
111. So, I hope you like your chicken
with no skin.
Copy !req
112. Thanks, but I don't eat meat.
Copy !req
113. How about you?
Copy !req
114. I bet you like meat.
Copy !req
115. Is it just me,
Copy !req
116. or is this guy's crown
a little crooked?
Copy !req
117. So, tell me, young bald one,
Copy !req
118. where are you from?
Copy !req
119. I'm from Kangaroo Island.
Copy !req
120. Oh, Kangaroo Island, eh?
Copy !req
121. I hear that place is really hopping.
Copy !req
122. What?
Copy !req
123. It was pretty funny.
Copy !req
124. All these good jokes
are making me tired.
Copy !req
125. Guess it's time to hit the hay.
Copy !req
126. There's an airbender in our presence,
Copy !req
127. and not just any airbender...
Copy !req
128. The Avatar.
Copy !req
129. Now, what do you have to
say for yourself,
Copy !req
130. Mr. Pippenpadlopsicopolis?
Copy !req
131. Ok, you caught me.
Copy !req
132. I'm the Avatar...
Copy !req
133. Doing my Avatar thing,
Copy !req
134. keeping the world safe.
Copy !req
135. Everything checks out.
Copy !req
136. No firebenders here.
Copy !req
137. So, good work, everybody.
Copy !req
138. Love each other,
Copy !req
139. respect all life,
Copy !req
140. and don't run with your spears.
Copy !req
141. We'll see you next time!
Copy !req
142. You can't keep us here.
Copy !req
143. Let us leave!
Copy !req
144. Lettuce leaf?
Copy !req
145. We're in serious trouble.
Copy !req
146. This guy is nuts.
Copy !req
147. Tomorrow, the Avatar will face
three deadly challenges.
Copy !req
148. But for now, the guards
will show you to your chamber.
Copy !req
149. My liege, do you mean
the good chamber or the bad chamber?
Copy !req
150. The newly-refurbished chamber.
Copy !req
151. Wait. Which one are we talking about?
Copy !req
152. The one that used to be
the bad chamber...
Copy !req
153. Until the recent refurbishing,
that is.
Copy !req
154. Of course, we've been calling it
the new chamber,
Copy !req
155. but we really should
number them.
Copy !req
156. Uh...
Copy !req
157. Take them to the refurbished chamber
Copy !req
158. that was once bad.
Copy !req
159. This is a prison cell?
Copy !req
160. But it's so nice.
Copy !req
161. He did say it was newly refurbished.
Copy !req
162. Nice or not, we're prisoners.
Copy !req
163. I wonder what these challenges
are gonna be.
Copy !req
164. We're not sticking around to find out.
Copy !req
165. There's gotta be some way out of here.
Copy !req
166. The air vents!
Copy !req
167. If you think we're gonna
fit through there,
Copy !req
168. you're crazier than that king.
Copy !req
169. We can't.
Copy !req
170. But Momo can.
Copy !req
171. Momo, I need you to find Appa
Copy !req
172. and bust us out of here.
Copy !req
173. Go on, boy!
Copy !req
174. Get Appa!
Copy !req
175. Eh, how was Appa supposed to
save us anyway?
Copy !req
176. Appa is a 10-ton flying bison.
Copy !req
177. I think he could figure something out.
Copy !req
178. Well, no point arguing about it now.
Copy !req
179. Get some rest, Aang.
Copy !req
180. Looks like you'll need it
for tomorrow.
Copy !req
181. Sokka? Katara?
Copy !req
182. Where are my friends?
Copy !req
183. The king will free them
if you complete your challenges.
Copy !req
184. And if I fail?
Copy !req
185. He didn't say.
Copy !req
186. Your staff, please?
Copy !req
187. First, Avatar,
Copy !req
188. what do you think of my new outfit?
Copy !req
189. I want your honest opinion.
Copy !req
190. I'm waiting.
Copy !req
191. I...
Copy !req
192. Guess it's fine.
Copy !req
193. Excellent.
Copy !req
194. You've passed the first test.
Copy !req
195. Really?
Copy !req
196. Well...
Copy !req
197. Not one of the deadly tests.
Copy !req
198. The real challenges are much more...
Copy !req
199. Challenging.
Copy !req
200. I don't have time
for your crazy games.
Copy !req
201. Give me my friends back.
We're leaving!
Copy !req
202. Oh, I thought you might refuse,
Copy !req
203. so I will give your friends
some special souvenirs.
Copy !req
204. Those delightful rings
Copy !req
205. are made of pure genomite...
Copy !req
206. Also known as Creeping Crystal.
Copy !req
207. It's crystal that grows
remarkably fast.
Copy !req
208. By nightfall, your friends will be
completely covered in it.
Copy !req
209. Terrible fate, really.
Copy !req
210. I can stop it,
Copy !req
211. but only if you cooperate.
Copy !req
212. Agh! It's already creeping!
Copy !req
213. I'll do what you want.
Copy !req
214. Hmm!
Copy !req
215. Ha ha ha ha ha!
Copy !req
216. It seems I've lost my lunchbox key,
Copy !req
217. and I'm hungry.
Copy !req
218. Oh, there it is!
Copy !req
219. Would you mind fetching it for me?
Copy !req
220. Ooh!
Copy !req
221. Climbing the ladder.
Copy !req
222. No one's thought of that before!
Copy !req
223. Aah!
Copy !req
224. That's right.
Copy !req
225. Keep diving head in.
Copy !req
226. I'm sure it will work eventually.
Copy !req
227. Huh?
Copy !req
228. There! Enjoy your lunch!
Copy !req
229. I want my friends back now!
Copy !req
230. Uh, not yet.
Copy !req
231. I need help with another matter.
Copy !req
232. It seems I've lost my pet Flopsy.
Copy !req
233. Ok, found him.
Copy !req
234. Bring him to me.
Copy !req
235. Daddy wants a kiss from Flopsy.
Copy !req
236. Come here, Flopsy.
Copy !req
237. Heh heh.
Copy !req
238. Flopsy, wait!
Copy !req
239. Flopsy!
Copy !req
240. Flopsy!
Copy !req
241. Wait a minute.
Copy !req
242. Flopsy?
Copy !req
243. Flopsy!
Copy !req
244. Oh, that's a good boy.
Copy !req
245. Yes! Who has a soft belly?
Copy !req
246. Guys, are you ok?
Copy !req
247. Other than the crystal slowly
encasing my entire body,
Copy !req
248. doing great.
Copy !req
249. Oh, yes.
Copy !req
250. Come on. I'm ready
for the next challenge.
Copy !req
251. Ah! Ha ha ha ha ha!
Copy !req
252. Your final test is a duel.
Copy !req
253. And, as a special treat,
Copy !req
254. you may choose your opponent.
Copy !req
255. Point and choose.
Copy !req
256. So, you're saying
whoever I point to...
Copy !req
257. That's the person I get to fight?
Copy !req
258. Choose wisely.
Copy !req
259. I...
Copy !req
260. Choose...
Copy !req
261. You.
Copy !req
262. Ha ha. Wrong choice.
Copy !req
263. Whoa!
Copy !req
264. Oof!
Copy !req
265. You thought I was a frail old man,
Copy !req
266. but I'm the most powerful earthbender
you'll ever see.
Copy !req
267. Can I fight the guy
with the ax instead?
Copy !req
268. There are no take-backsies
in my kingdom.
Copy !req
269. You might need this.
Copy !req
270. Typical airbender tactic...
Copy !req
271. Avoid and evade.
Copy !req
272. I'd hoped the Avatar
would be less predictable.
Copy !req
273. Don't you have any surprises for me?
Copy !req
274. Sooner or later,
you'll have to strike back.
Copy !req
275. Oh, you'll have to be
a little more creative than that.
Copy !req
276. Did someone leave the windows open?
Copy !req
277. It feels a little drafty in here.
Copy !req
278. Are you hoping I'll catch a cold?
Copy !req
279. How are you going to get me
from way over there?
Copy !req
280. Oof!
Copy !req
281. Aah!
Copy !req
282. Huh.
Copy !req
283. Ha ha. Well done, Avatar.
Copy !req
284. You fight with much fire
in your heart.
Copy !req
285. Huh?
Copy !req
286. You've passed all my tests.
Copy !req
287. Now, you must answer one question.
Copy !req
288. That's not fair.
Copy !req
289. You said you would release my friends
if I finish your tests.
Copy !req
290. Oh, but what's the point of tests
if you don't learn anything?
Copy !req
291. Oh, come on!
Copy !req
292. Answer this one question
Copy !req
293. and I will set your friends free.
Copy !req
294. What is my name?
Copy !req
295. From the looks of your friends,
Copy !req
296. I'd say you only have a few minutes.
Copy !req
297. How am I supposed to know his name?
Copy !req
298. Think about the challenges.
Copy !req
299. Maybe it's some kind of riddle.
Copy !req
300. - I got it!
- Yeah?
Copy !req
301. He's an earthbender, right?
Copy !req
302. Rocky...
Copy !req
303. You know, because of all the rocks.
Copy !req
304. We're gonna keep trying,
Copy !req
305. but that is a good backup.
Copy !req
306. Ok, so back to the challenges.
Copy !req
307. I got a key from a waterfall,
Copy !req
308. I saved his pet, and I had a duel.
Copy !req
309. And what did you learn?
Copy !req
310. Well, everything was different
than I expected.
Copy !req
311. And...
Copy !req
312. Well...
Copy !req
313. They weren't straightforward.
To solve each test,
Copy !req
314. I had to think differently
than I usually would.
Copy !req
315. I know his name.
Copy !req
316. I solved the question
the same way I solved the challenges.
Copy !req
317. As you said a long time ago,
Copy !req
318. I had to open my brain
to the possibilities.
Copy !req
319. Bumi, you're a mad genius.
Copy !req
320. Oh, Aang, it's good to see you.
Copy !req
321. You haven't changed a bit...
Copy !req
322. Literally.
Copy !req
323. Uh, over here.
Copy !req
324. A little help.
Copy !req
325. Genomite is made of rock candy.
Copy !req
326. Delicious!
Copy !req
327. So, this crazy king
is your old friend Bumi?
Copy !req
328. Who you calling old?
Copy !req
329. Ok, I'm old.
Copy !req
330. Why did you do all this
Copy !req
331. instead of just telling Aang
who you were?
Copy !req
332. First of all,
Copy !req
333. it's pretty fun messing with people.
Copy !req
334. Ha ha.
Copy !req
335. But I do have a reason.
Copy !req
336. Aang, you have a difficult task ahead.
Copy !req
337. The world has changed in the 100 years
you've been gone.
Copy !req
338. It's the duty of the Avatar
to restore balance to the world
Copy !req
339. by defeating Fire Lord Ozai.
Copy !req
340. You have much to learn.
Copy !req
341. You must master the four elements
Copy !req
342. and confront the Fire Lord.
Copy !req
343. And when you do,
Copy !req
344. I hope you will think
like a mad genius.
Copy !req
345. And it looks like
you're in good hands.
Copy !req
346. You'll need your friends
to help you defeat the Fire Nation.
Copy !req
347. And you'll need Momo, too.
Copy !req
348. Thank you for your wisdom.
Copy !req
349. But before we leave,
Copy !req
350. I have a challenge for you.
Copy !req
351. - Yeah!
- Whoo!
Copy !req
352. My cabbages!
Copy !req
