- Tenzin: Why don't you take a break? I'm glad you turned down Tarrlok, but I just want to make sure your decision was for the right reason.
- Korra: I'm just really focused on my airbending right now is all.
- Tenzin: Right, that's what you said... You know, it's okay to be scared, the whole city is frightened by what's been going on. The important thing is to talk about our fears, because if we don't, they can throw us out of balance. I'm always here for you, if you want to talk.
- Korra: I was so terrified, I felt so helpless.
- Tenzin: It's all right, the nightmare is over.
- Korra: You... you were right. I've been scared this whole time I've never felt like this before. Tenzin, I don't know what to do.
- Tenzin: Admitting your fears is the first and most difficult step in overcoming them.
- Ikki: Why do you have three ponytails? And how come you smell like a lady?
- Tarrlok: Well aren't you... precocious?
- Asami: It sounds weird to say this, but I'm really glad I hit you with my moped.
- Mako: Me too.
- Asami: I forgot to ask. Why didn't you accept the new silk scarf I bought for you last week? You didn't like it?
- Mako: No, it was really nice, but this scarf was my father's. And it's all I have left of him. I just feel like... Like it keeps me safe.
- Asami: I'm so sorry. I lost my mother when I was very young. I feel so safe with you.
- Tarrlok: All I'm trying to do is help. Think back, forty-two years ago, Republic City was threatened by another dangerous man. Yakone. Your father wasn't afraid to deal with him head on.
- Tenzin: This is a completely different situation... and how dare you compare yourself to Avatar Aang.
- Bolin: Anyways, the reason I came by was to give you this. Ta-da!
- Korra: Wow, thanks. What's this for?
- Bolin: Uh, oh I can't remember now. Oh yeah, now I remember. You saved me from Amon!
- Korra: Oh, that? It was no big deal.
- Bolin: No big deal, are you serious? I was totally freaking out when he was coming at me with his creepy mask all, "I will take away your bending forever." I mean that is scary stuff. I still can't sleep well.
- Hiroshi Sato: Well, my daughter passionately told me all about your hard earned success in the pro-bending arena. And about your teams current financial stumbling block. Now, I hate to see you lose your chance at winning the championship just because you're short a few yuans. That's why I'm going to sponsor the Fire Ferrets in the tournament.
- Mako: Are you serious?
- Asami: He's serious. My dad's going to cover your ante for the championship pot.
- Mako: Wow, that is good news.
- Hiroshi Sato: There's just one catch. You all have to wear the Future Industries logo on your uniforms.
- Mako: I'll tattoo it on my chest if you want, sir. Thank you both so much. I promise the Fire Ferrets will make the most of this opportunity.
- [pretending to drive]
- Ikki: Out of the way Daddy! We're driving here! BEEEEEEPPP BEEEEEPPP
- Meelo: Beep beep.
- Lin Beifong: Just because the city's throwing you this big to do, don't think you're something special. You've done absolutely nothing to deserve this.
- Korra: You want to know why? Because Amon is hiding in the shadows like a coward. Amon, I challenge you to a duel, no task force, no chi blockers, just the two of us tonight at midnight on Avatar Aang Memorial Island. Let's cut to the chase and settle this thing, if you're man enough to face me.
- Amon: I received your invitation young Avatar. 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 of 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.
- Mako: Hey Korra!
- Hiroshi Sato: This is my daughter, Asami.
- Asami: It's lovely to meet you. Mako's told me so much about you.
- Korra: Really? Because he hasn't mentioned you at all. How did you two meet?
- Bolin: Asami crashed into him on her moped.
- Korra: What? Are you okay?
- Mako: I'm fine. More than fine. Mr.Sato agreed to sponsor our team, we're back in the tournament!
- Bolin: Isn't that great?
- Korra: Yeah... terrific.
- Tenzin: Earth. Fire. Air. Water. Only the Avatar can master all four elements and bring balance to the world.
