00:00Only the Avatar can master all four elements and bring balance to the world.
00:16Love is in the air!
00:18Since Avatar Korra has arrived in Republic City, she's only had eyes for one fellow, Mako.
00:24The feeling seemed mutual until a fateful accident intervened.
00:29Now Mako's affections have fallen right into the arms of the beautiful Asami.
00:34Will love prove to be Korra's most formidable foe yet?
00:59Oh!
01:07It's been great having you at so many back-to-back practices, Korra.
01:10Feels good to be back. Although Tarlok isn't too happy about my leave of absence.
01:15Hey, you joined the Fire Ferrets before you joined his task force.
01:19Okay, come on. Team huddle time.
01:28Um, it's our first match of the tournament tonight.
01:34I know the three of us haven't been a team for very long, but even so, the Fire Ferrets have never been this good.
01:40Are we ready?
01:41We're ready!
01:42Not quite.
01:44You'll need these.
01:46Hey, Asami.
01:47Good morning, sweetie.
01:50These new uniforms look great.
01:52You look great, champ.
01:55Well, teammates, I'll see you before the match tonight.
02:00Asami and I have a lunch date.
02:02Okay, we'll check you guys later, you know. We'll see you when we see you.
02:08So, Korra. There they go. Here we are, all alone in the gym.
02:17Just you and me. Two alone people. Together. Alone.
02:25Uh, I gotta head back to the Air Temple to train with Tenzin. See ya!
02:36Work with me here, Pabu. You wanna look spick and span in your new uniform, don't you?
02:42So, what do you think of Korra in a girlfriend sort of way?
02:48She's great, but I think it makes more sense for me to go for Asami.
02:53I was talking about a girlfriend for me. Leave some ladies for the rest of us.
02:57I know. That's what I thought you meant.
03:00Well?
03:01I don't know, Bo. It doesn't seem like a good idea for you to date Korra.
03:05You just said she was great, too.
03:08Yeah. Korra's a great athlete and avatar and stuff, but I don't know if she's really girlfriend material.
03:14She's more like a pal.
03:16Bro, you're nuts. Korra and I are perfect for each other.
03:20She's strong. I'm strong. She's fun. I'm fun. She's beautiful. I'm gorgeous.
03:27Okay, I don't care what you think. I'm gonna ask Korra out.
03:30Look, it just isn't smart to date a teammate.
03:33I'm gonna ask Korra out.
03:35Look, it just isn't smart to date a teammate.
03:38Especially during the tournament.
03:40Keep your head out of the clouds and your priorities straight, okay?
03:44Yeah, yeah, I know.
03:46You know what I'm talking about, Pabu.
03:49I'm talking about real love.
03:51So, how's it going with the tall, dreamy firebender boy?
04:05You've been spending a lot of time together lately.
04:08Oh, yeah. Tell us all about the magical romance.
04:13What? Listen to you two. I'm not interested in Mako or any romantic stuff.
04:19Besides, he's all into that prissy, beautiful, elegant, rich girl.
04:24But let's just pretend for a second I am interested in him.
04:28What would I do?
04:30Ooh, I just read a historical saga where the heroine fell in love with the enemy general's son,
04:36who was supposed to marry the princess.
04:38You should do what she did.
04:40Tell me.
04:41She rode a dragon into battle and burned down the entire country.
04:45Then she jumped into a volcano.
04:47It was so romantic.
04:49Uh...
04:50No, no, no!
04:52The best way to win a boy's heart is to brew a love potion of rainbows and sunsets
04:56that makes true lovers sprout wings and fly to a magical castle in the sky
05:00where they get married and eat clouds and spoons
05:02and use stars as ice cubes in their moonlight punch.
05:05Forever and ever and ever!
05:07The volcano is starting to make more sense to me now.
05:10Oh, hey, Pema.
05:13Uh, how long were you standing there?
05:16Long enough.
05:18But trust me, I know what you're going through.
05:21Years ago, I was in the exact same situation with Tenzin.
05:26Daddy was in love with someone else before you?
05:29That's right.
05:30So what did you do?
05:31Well, for the longest time, I did nothing.
05:34I was so shy and scared of rejection,
05:37but watching my soulmate spend his life with the wrong woman became too painful.
05:42So I hung my chin out there and I confessed my love to Tenzin.
05:46And the rest is history.
05:48Wow!
05:58Folks, after a year of waiting,
06:01the Pro-Bending Championship Tournament is here!
06:05Tonight is the first set of matches in our single-elimination 16-team bracket.
06:10And I gotta tell you, these are the most tenacious
06:13and talented bending trios this arena has ever seen.
06:17Introducing our first team,
06:21the Future Industries Fire Ferrets!
06:26Future Industries Fire Ferrets!
06:33And their opponents, the Red Sands Rubber Roofs!
06:46What an explosive opening volley!
06:49Both teams quickly recover and unleash a barrage of bending.
06:53I am astonished with the level of improvement displayed here by the Fire Ferrets.
06:57No wonder the Avatar's been absent from the papers lately.
07:01She's obviously had her nose to the grindstone in the gym.
07:05The Ferrets advance into Rubber Roof territory and are holding nothing back.
07:09Nice sprawl there by Mako.
07:11Ballin' strikes!
07:12Ula dodges!
07:13And all three Rubber Roofs are down!
07:16The Fire Ferrets easily take round one.
07:20Round two!
07:22The Rubber Roofs are looking for payback, and they go straight after Ballin'.
07:26Korra comes to his defense,
07:28and she waddle-waddle-boomy back into zone two!
07:31The Ferrets are on fire tonight, and they win round two!
07:35Round three!
07:39With the Rubber Roofs down two rounds, they'll need a knockout to win.
07:43And with the way the Fire Ferrets are playing, I don't see that happening.
07:48These Ferrets are working together like a well-oiled vending machine.
07:54Ballin' bashes Adi into zone two, and the Ferrets get the green light to advance.
08:00The Rubber Roofs are just fighting to stay on their feet at this point.
08:05Down goes Adi, and Ula, and Umi!
08:08All three rounds go to the Future Industries Fire Ferrets,
08:12who win their opening match of the tournament!
08:17Yes, that's what I'm talking about!
08:23Wow. We were really connecting out there in that ring.
08:27Yeah. You know, I feel like the two of us have been connecting really well out of the ring, too.
08:32Uh, sure.
08:34So I was thinking we should spend some time together.
08:37We've been spending lots of time together.
08:40I mean outside of the gym, and not while searching for kidnapped family members or fighting chi blockers.
08:46I don't know. Asami and I are—
08:49Look, I really like you, and I think we were meant for each other.
09:02Forget I ever said anything.
09:05Congratulations, guys! You were so amazing out there!
09:19So, Aura, I was thinking you and me, we could go get some dinner together.
09:26Sort of a date situation.
09:29Oh, that's really sweet of you.
09:32You know, that's really sweet, but I don't think so.
09:37I don't feel very date-worthy.
09:39Are you kidding me?
09:41You're the smartest, funniest, toughest, buffest, talented-est, incredible-est girl in the world!
09:48You really feel that way about me?
09:50I felt that way since the moment I saw you.
09:53Trust me, I know we're going to have so much fun together.
09:56You know what? I could use some fun.
09:59Okay, sure.
10:01Yes! Who's the luckiest guy in the world right here?
10:04Bowl in!
10:27Well, how do you like it?
10:29It's delicious and totally authentic.
10:32I didn't realize how much I miss water tribe grub.
10:35That's great, because this is my favorite joint.
10:38See, you love water tribe food, I love water tribe food.
10:41Just another reason we are so great together.
10:44There are good noodles.
10:47Hey, who's that creepy guy over there that keeps glaring at us?
10:51That's Tano and the Wolfbats.
10:54The rainy champs, three years running.
10:57Don't make eye contact.
11:07Uh-oh, here he comes.
11:10Now don't mess with this guy. He's a nasty dude.
11:17Well, well, well, if it isn't the Fire Ferrets.
11:21Pro-bending, saddest excuse for a team.
11:25Tell me how'd a couple of amateurs like you luck your way into the tournament?
11:29Especially you, Avatar.
11:33You know, if you'd like to learn how a real probe bends, I could give you some private lessons.
11:41You wanna go toe-to-toe with me, pretty boy?
11:44Go for it. I'll give you the first shot.
11:48Clara, don't. He's just trying to bait you.
11:51If you hit him, we're out of the tournament.
11:55What?
12:17I've never seen someone razz Tano like that.
12:20You are one of a kind, Cora.
12:55Yeah.
13:11What kind of game are you playing?
13:13Uh, probe bending. We've got a quarterfinal match.
13:16No, I mean with Bolin.
13:18You've got him all in a tizzy, and I know you're only using him to get back at me.
13:21I am not. We're just having fun together.
13:24What do you care, anyway?
13:26I'm looking out for my little brother. I don't want to see his heart get broken.
13:29Wait a second. You're not worried about him. You're jealous. You do have feelings for me.
13:36What? Jealous? Don't be ridiculous.
13:41Admit it. You like me.
13:43No. I'm with Asami.
13:46Yeah, but when you're with her, you're thinking about me, aren't you?
13:49Get over yourself.
13:50I'm just being honest.
13:51You're crazy!
13:52You're a liar!
13:55Hey, Marco!
13:59Eight teams have been eliminated and eight advance into the quarterfinals, which get underway tonight.
14:06The rookies are about to take on the former and longest reigning champs, the Barcupines.
14:11Youth clashes against experience in a battle for the ages, or rather, of the ages.
14:25Cora dodges and slams right into her teammate.
14:31Down goes Marco and Bowen and Cora.
14:35Round one goes to the Barcupines.
14:39You were supposed to defend while I attacked.
14:42I had an opening, so I took it.
14:44What is up with you two?
14:46All right, whatever. Just pull together, guys.
14:50The Parrots looking to mount some offense here in round two.
15:03Bowen lets fly a flurry of attacks. He's a one-man spending battalion.
15:10The Parrots having a tough time finding their rhythm tonight, but thanks to Bowen, they narrowly notch round two.
15:20Not sure what's eating them, but this is not the same team who took out the Robaroos.
15:27Round three is a tie. We go to a tiebreaker to decide the match.
15:37The Fire Ferrets win the coin toss.
15:40Which element do you choose?
15:42I got this. I know you usually handle these, but frankly, your head's not in the game.
15:47I'm going to take this one.
15:50We choose Earth.
15:54Looks like the Earthbenders will collide in the tiebreaker face-off.
16:09Dueling goes into the grapple. Chang reverses.
16:17Bowen strikes from midair, knocking Chang to the edge of the sackle.
16:21Another strike from Bowen, and Chang's in the tree.
16:25The Newberry Mysteries Fire Ferrets win their quarterfinal match.
16:32Oh, that was a close one, folks. View Trump's experience tonight.
16:37We need to talk. Look, sometimes you can be so infuriating.
16:42Save your breath. You've already made it clear how you feel about me.
16:47No, I haven't. What I'm trying to say is, as much as you drive me crazy, I also think you're pretty amazing.
16:56So you do like me?
16:59Yes, but...
17:01So you do like me?
17:04Yes, but... I like Asami, too. I don't know, things are complicated. I've been feeling really confused...
17:32No!
17:35Bowen, this isn't what you think!
17:40Great! Look what you did!
17:43You're blaming me?
17:45You kissed me!
17:47You kissed me back!
17:52Well played, Cora.
18:01Morning, Naruk. My brother here. Thanks.
18:08Come on, wake up. I'm taking you home, bro.
18:15Don't call me that. You're not my brother. You're a brother betrayer.
18:23The only one I can trust anymore is Pabu. Pabu loves me.
18:32You're a mess, and we've got the biggest match of our lives tonight. Let's go.
18:37No! I'm not going anywhere with you! You traitor!
18:42Guess we'll have to do this the hard way.
18:46Why?
18:49I told you dating a teammate was a bad idea.
18:52You're a bad idea! Put me down! Put me down!
19:01Put me down!
19:02You can't find two teams more evenly matched in age, size, and strength
19:30than the Fire Ferrets and the Buzzard Wasps. Believe me, I've looked.
19:35This should be a pulse-pounding semi-final, folks.
19:43The Buzzard Wasps open with a flawlessly executed combo.
19:48All three ferrets take an early visit to Zone 2, and Bumble knocked all the way back into Zone 3.
19:55The Fire Ferrets have been struggling to stay alive since the opening bell.
19:58All three players are totally out of sync tonight.
20:02Ooh, that has got to sting!
20:10And Bolin loses his noodles. Literally.
20:14Which reminds me, this match is brought to you by our sponsor, Flamio Instant Noodles.
20:20Noodliest noodles in the United Republic.
20:28The Buzzard Wasps fly deeper into ferret territory.
20:37And Mako plunges into the pool. Can the Fire Ferrets hold on?
20:43The Wasps have the ferrets backed up to the edge now.
20:47And the ferrets are bailed out by the bell.
20:51They had better pull themselves together, folks, for Round 2.
20:54Otherwise, they can kiss the finals goodbye.
20:58Hey! Watch it!
21:01The Wasps take advantage of Mako's unforced error, and Bolin's in the pool.
21:09Ooh, and a blatant hold by the Avatar.
21:13Unnecessary roughness. Move back one zone.
21:17I'll unnecessarily rough you up.
21:20I'll unnecessarily rough you up.
21:23I'll unnecessarily rough you up.
21:25I'll unnecessarily rough you up.
21:29And the Avatar is slapped with the yellow fan.
21:33The ferrets are their own worst enemy right now.
21:36It's just sad to watch.
21:38With the Buzzard Wasps leading two rounds to zilch, the ferrets' only hope of winning is with a knockout.
21:44Well, I guess there's always next year.
21:46Come on, we still have a chance, even if it is a slim one.
21:49The way we're playing, we don't even deserve to be in the finals.
21:52Look, if we don't pull together and work as a team, we'll never forgive ourselves.
21:58Let's just get this over with, the sooner the better.
22:14Bolin's knocked into zone two, followed quickly by his brother.
22:22And Bolin takes a zinger to the shoulder. Looks like it's a clean hit.
22:31Mako's in the drink and out of the match.
22:34And Bolin keeps playing with one good arm.
22:37I gotta hand it to him, this kid's got grit.
22:40But how long can he keep it up?
22:42Apparently not very long.
22:44The ferret's dream of making it to the finals now rests in the Avatar's hands.
22:49But with three on one, I don't like her odds.
22:52Ugh!
22:57Are you okay? How's your shoulder?
23:00Ugh! It's messed up pretty bad.
23:03But I think I'll be alright.
23:09Are we... gonna be alright?
23:12Of course we are.
23:14We're brothers. We'll get through this mess.
23:18I'm sorry.
23:20Me too.
23:22Girls.
23:23Seriously.
23:25What an unbelievable effort here by Korra.
23:28She's dodging every element the Wasp can throw at her.
23:34The Avatar finally gains some ground, but with only ten seconds remaining, it might be too little too late.
23:43It's the big kibosh!
23:45What a knockout!
23:50Yes! He did it! Yeah!
23:54It didn't seem possible, folks, but the fire ferrets are headed to the finals!
23:59Ha ha!
24:00Older shoulder!
24:02Sorry.
24:04That... was pretty much the coolest thing I've ever seen.
24:09Thanks for not giving up on us.
24:11We never would have made it this far without you.
24:14I owe you. Big time.
24:16You're welcome.
24:18So...
24:20I know things are confusing right now, but I hope we can still be friends.
24:25Definitely.
24:32You boys smell something in here?
24:36Wait. I know what that is.
24:38That's the scent of losers.
24:41I hope we see you in the finals.
24:43Then we'll see who the losers really are.
24:45Yeah. I'm peeing my pants over here.
24:49And now, the defending champs, the White Falls Wolfpacks!
24:57Great job!
25:00What a comeback, Korra. I've never seen a hat trick like that.
25:04Thanks.
25:05But if it hadn't been for you and your father, we wouldn't have had the chance to play.
25:10So thank you.
25:11Uh, if everyone's done with the little thank you party, need some medical attention over here.
25:16Ooh, let me help.
25:18Ow!
25:20Haven't you hurt me enough, woman?
25:22Relax! I'm a healer.
25:25I learn from Katara the best there is.
25:27No, no, no, no, no!
25:31That's the stuff.
25:33Bolin, I'm sorry I hurt your feelings.
25:37I didn't mean to let things get so out of hand.
25:40Ah, I'll be all right.
25:43But we had fun together, didn't we?
25:45I had a great time, honestly.
25:47You are one of a kind, Bolin.
25:50Please, go on. I enjoy a press.
25:54Your winners, the Wolfpacks!
25:58What? How's it over already?
26:01With a brutal round one knockout, the defending champs secure their spot in the finals.
26:07I hope the ferrets know a good doctor, because they're gonna need one.
26:37Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
