The Serpent's Pass / The Drill

00:00:07

- KATARA: Water.

00:00:09

Earth.

00:00:11

Fire.

00:00:13

Air.

00:00:16

Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony.

00:00:20

Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked.

00:00:24

Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them.

00:00:28

But when the world needed him most, he vanished.

00:00:32

A hundred years passed, and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar, an Airbender named Aang.

00:00:37

And although his airbending skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone.

00:00:42

- Ugh!

00:00:43

- KATARA: But I believe Aang can save the world.

00:00:46

00:00:54

- We're heading to Ba Sing Se.

00:00:57

- Why would we go to the Earth Kingdom capital?

00:00:59

- The city is filled with refugees.

00:01:01

- Uh, what's Suki up to?

00:01:04

- Actually, she and the other warriors left to fight in the war.

00:01:07

- My name's Jet.

00:01:08

The Fire Nation killed my parents.

00:01:11

I was only eight years old. That day changed me forever.

00:01:15

- [blast]

00:01:17

- [waves crashing]

00:01:21

- KATARA: All those people. Jet, you monster!

00:01:24

- JET: This was a victory, Katara.

00:01:26

The Fire Nation is gone and this valley will be safe.

00:01:29

- [growls]

00:01:32

- Tell me where Appa is!

00:01:34

- I traded him.

00:01:35

He's probably in Ba Sing Se right now.

00:01:38

- [gusting]

00:01:44

00:01:52

- [calm music]

00:02:13

- [ice shatters]

00:02:14

- [laughter]

00:02:16

- Sure, 5,000-year-old maps from the Spirit Library.

00:02:19

Just splash some water on them.

00:02:21

- Sorry.

00:02:23

- [birds chirping]

00:02:29

- So did you figure out what route we're gonna take?

00:02:31

- SOKKA: Okay, we just got out of the desert, so we must be around here.

00:02:34

And we need to go to Ba Sing Se, which is here.

00:02:37

It looks like the only passage connecting the south to the north is this sliver of land called the Serpent's Pass.

00:02:42

- You're sure that's the best way to go?

00:02:44

- It's the only way.

00:02:45

I mean, it's not like we have Appa to fly us there.

00:02:47

- Shush up about Appa.

00:02:49

Can't you at least try to be sensitive?

00:02:53

- Katara, it's okay.

00:02:55

I know I was upset about losing Appa before, but I just want to focus on getting to Ba Sing Se and telling the Earth King about the solar eclipse.

00:03:03

- Oh, well, okay. I'm glad you're doing better.

00:03:08

- Then to Ba Sing Se we go. No more distractions.

00:03:10

- Hello there, fellow refugees!

00:03:18

- So are you guys headed to Ba Sing Se too?

00:03:20

- Sure are.

00:03:22

We're trying to get there before my wife, Ying, has her baby.

00:03:24

- Great.

00:03:25

We can travel through the Serpent's Pass together.

00:03:27

- The Serpent's Pass?

00:03:29

Only the truly desperate take that deadly route.

00:03:32

- Deadly route? Great pick, Sokka!

00:03:35

- Well, we are desperate.

00:03:37

- You should come with us to Full Moon Bay.

00:03:39

Ferries take refugees across the lake.

00:03:42

It's the fastest way to Ba Sing Se.

00:03:44

- And it's hidden so the Fire Nation can't find it.

00:03:47

- Hm, peaceful ferry ride or deadly pass?

00:03:58

- [clacking]

00:04:00

- KATARA: I can't believe how many people's lives have been uprooted by the Fire Nation.

00:04:04

- We're all looking for a bit of life--

00:04:06

- [baby cries]

00:04:07

- --safe behind the walls of Ba Sing Se.

00:04:09

- [tense music]

00:04:10

00:04:19

- Who would've thought after all these years

00:04:22

I'd return to the scene of my greatest military disgrace as a tourist?

00:04:29

- Look around.

00:04:30

We're not tourists. We're refugees.

00:04:34

Ugh!

00:04:36

I'm sick of eating rotten food, sleeping in the dirt.

00:04:38

I'm tired of living like this.

00:04:40

- JET: Aren't we all?

00:04:45

My name's Jet, and these are my Freedom Fighters,

00:04:48

Smellerbee and Longshot.

00:04:49

- Hey.

00:04:52

- Hello.

00:04:53

- Here's the deal.

00:04:54

I hear the captain's eating like a king while all us refugees have to feed off his scraps.

00:04:59

Doesn't seem fair, does it?

00:05:01

- What sort of king is he eating like?

00:05:03

- The fat, happy kind.

00:05:06

- [boing sound]

00:05:07

- You wanna help us liberate some food?

00:05:15

- [splash]

00:05:16

- I'm in.

00:05:24

- I told you already, no vegetables on the ferry!

00:05:28

One cabbage slug could destroy the entire ecosystem of Ba Sing Se!

00:05:32

Security! - Aah!

00:05:34

- [growls]

00:05:37

- Gah, my cabbages!

00:05:40

[sobs]

00:05:45

- Next!

00:05:48

- Um, four tickets for the ferry to Ba Sing Se, please.

00:05:51

- Passports?

00:05:52

- Uh, no one told us we had to have passports.

00:05:55

- Don't you know who this is? He's the Avatar.

00:05:58

- Ah, I see 50 Avatars a day.

00:06:00

And by the way, not a very impressive costume.

00:06:04

- [pipe music]

00:06:07

- [squawks]

00:06:09

- Besides, no animals allowed. Do I need to call security?

00:06:13

- [burps]

00:06:14

- [squeaks and trills]

00:06:16

- That won't be necessary.

00:06:18

- Next! - I'll take care of this.

00:06:21

My name is Toph Beifung and I need four tickets.

00:06:25

- Ah, the golden steal of the flying boar.

00:06:29

It is my pleasure to help anyone of the Beifung family.

00:06:33

- It is your pleasure.

00:06:35

As you can see,

00:06:36

I am blind and these three imbeciles are my valets.

00:06:39

- But the animal-- - --is my seeing-eye lemur.

00:06:43

- [chatters]

00:06:44

- Well, normally it's only one ticket per passport, but this document is so official,

00:06:50

I guess it's worth four tickets.

00:06:55

- Thank you very much.

00:06:57

- All right! We scammed that lady good!

00:06:59

Aah!

00:07:01

- Tickets and passports, please. - Is there a problem?

00:07:04

- Yeah, I got a problem with you.

00:07:06

I've seen your type before.

00:07:08

Probably sarcastic, think you're hilarious.

00:07:11

And let me guess, you're travelling with the Avatar.

00:07:14

- Do I know you?

00:07:16

- You mean you don't remember? Maybe you remember this.

00:07:21

- Suki!

00:07:23

- Sokka, it's good to see you!

00:07:26

- KATARA: You look so different without your makeup and the new outfit.

00:07:31

- That crabby lady makes all the security guards wear them.

00:07:34

And look at you, sleeveless guy. Been working out?

00:07:37

- Oh, I'll grab a tree branch and do a few chin touches every now and then. Nothing major.

00:07:43

- Are the other Kyoshi Warriors around?

00:07:45

- Yeah.

00:07:47

After you left Kyoshi, we wanted to find a way to help people.

00:07:49

We ended up escorting some refugees and we've been here ever since.

00:07:52

- [chatters] - [laughs]

00:07:54

Hi, Momo. Good to see you too.

00:07:56

- [trills]

00:07:57

- So why are you guys getting tickets for the ferry?

00:07:59

Wouldn't you just fly across on Appa?

00:08:03

- Appa is missing.

00:08:04

We hope to find him in Ba Sing Se.

00:08:07

- I'm so sorry to hear that. Are you doing okay?

00:08:14

- I'm doing fine.

00:08:15

Would everybody stop worrying about me?

00:08:17

- Avatar Aang, you have to help us!

00:08:20

Someone took all of our belongings, our passports, our tickets. Everything's gone!

00:08:26

[sobs]

00:08:27

- I'll talk to the lady for you.

00:08:30

- No passports, no tickets!

00:08:34

- But she's pregnant, and all their stuff was stolen.

00:08:36

You have to make an exception.

00:08:38

- No exceptions!

00:08:40

If I just gave away tickets willy-nilly to anyone, there would be no more order.

00:08:44

And you know what that means-- no more civilization!

00:08:47

- What if we gave them our tickets?

00:08:48

- No! - But--

00:08:49

- Next! - [splash]

00:08:52

- Don't worry, you'll get to the city safely.

00:08:55

I'll lead you through the Serpent's Pass.

00:09:04

- I can't believe we gave up our tickets and now we're going through the Serpent's Pass.

00:09:08

- I can't believe you're still complaining about it.

00:09:11

- I'm coming too!

00:09:13

- Are you sure that's a good idea?

00:09:15

- Sokka, I thought you'd want me to come.

00:09:17

- I do. It's just--

00:09:18

- Just what?

00:09:20

- Nothing. I'm glad you're coming.

00:09:27

This is the Serpent's Pass?

00:09:28

I thought it would be more wind-y.

00:09:30

You know, like a serpent. Hm, I guess they misnamed it.

00:09:33

- Look at this writing. How awful.

00:09:37

- What does it say?

00:09:38

- It says, "Abandon hope."

00:09:40

- How could we abandon hope? That's all we have.

00:09:44

- AANG: I don't know.

00:09:46

The monks used to say that hope is just a distraction.

00:09:49

So maybe we do need to abandon it.

00:09:51

- What are you talking about?

00:09:53

- Hope isn't going to get us into Ba Sing Se, and it's not gonna find Appa.

00:09:57

We need to focus on what we're doing right now, and that's getting across this pass.

00:10:04

- Okay, if you say so.

00:10:11

- SUKI: The Fire Nation controls the Western Lake.

00:10:14

Rumor has it they're working on something big on the other side and they don't want anyone to find out what it is.

What's going on with you?

In the desert, all you cared about was finding Appa.

00:12:38

And now it's like you don't care about him at all.

00:12:40

- You saw what I did out there.

00:12:43

I was so angry about losing Appa, I couldn't control myself.

00:12:46

I hated feeling like that.

00:12:48

- But now you're not letting yourself feel anything.

00:12:51

I know sometimes it hurts more to hope, and it hurts more to care.

- Then why are you acting so overprotective?

00:13:32

- It's so hard to lose someone you care about.

00:13:35

Something happened at the North Pole and I couldn't protect someone.

00:13:38

I don't want anything like that to ever happen again.

00:13:40

- I lost someone I cared about.

00:13:43

He didn't die. He just went away.

I only had a few days to get to know him, but he was smart, and brave, and funny.
