The Boiling Rock
00:00:07- KATARA: Water.
00:00:09Earth.
00:00:11Fire.
00:00:13Air.
00:00:16Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony.
00:00:20Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked.
00:00:24Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them.
00:00:28But when the world needed him most, he vanished.
00:00:32A hundred years passed, and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar, an Airbender named Aang.
00:00:37And although his airbending skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone.
00:00:42- Ugh!
00:00:44- KATARA: But I believe Aang can save the world.
00:00:46- ♪
00:00:55- Sokka's your name, right?
00:00:57My favorite prisoner used to mention you all the time.
00:01:01She was convinced you were going to come rescue her.
00:01:03Of course, you never came, and she gave up on you.
00:01:07- Where is Suki?
00:01:11How are we all gonna escape?
00:01:12- We're not. You kids have to leave.
00:01:15You have to escape on Appa together.
00:01:17- Goodbye, Dad.
00:01:18We won't be apart for too long this time.
00:01:20I promise.

00:01:31- ZUKO: No one can make tea like Uncle.
00:01:32But hopefully I learned a thing or two.
00:01:34Would you like to hear Uncle's favorite tea joke?
00:01:36- KATARA: Sure. - AANG: I like jokes.
00:01:38- TOPH: Bring it!
00:01:40- Okay, well, I can't remember how it starts, but the punchline is "Leaf me alone-- I'm bushed!"
00:01:46- [crickets chirping]
00:01:51- Well, it's funnier when Uncle tells it.
00:01:54- Right.
00:01:55Maybe that's because he remembers the whole thing.
00:01:57- [laughter]
00:02:04- It's nice to get a chance to relax a little.
00:02:06It hardly ever happens.
00:02:13- Hey, can I talk to you for a second?
00:02:21- So what's up?
00:02:22- SOKKA: If someone was captured by the Fire Nation, where would they be taken?
00:02:27- ZUKO: What do you mean? Who was captured?
00:02:30- When the invasion plan failed, some of our troops were taken.
00:02:33I just want to know where they might be.
00:02:35- I can't tell you.
00:02:36- What? Why not?
00:02:38- Trust me.
00:02:39Knowing will just make you feel worse.
00:02:42- It's my dad. He was captured too.
00:02:45I need to know what I put him through.
00:02:47- It's not good, Sokka. - Please.
00:02:51- My guess is they were taken to the Boiling Rock.
00:02:54- What's that?
00:02:56- ZUKO: The highest-security prison in the Fire Nation.
00:02:58It's on an island in the middle of the boiling lake.
00:03:02It's inescapable. - So where is this place?
00:03:05- Why do you need to know? What are you planning?
00:03:07- Nothing.
00:03:09Boy, you're so paranoid.
00:03:12- It's in the middle of a volcano between here and the Fire Nation.
00:03:16You guys actually flew right past it on the way here.
00:03:19- Thanks, Zuko. [yawns]

00:04:01- I'm never happy.
00:04:03- Look, I have to do this. The invasion plan was my idea.
00:04:07It was my decision to stay when things were going wrong.
00:04:10It's my mistake, and it's my job to fix it.
00:04:13I have to regain my honor. You can't stop me, Zuko.
00:04:18- You need to regain your honor? Believe me, I get it.

00:05:43- What? Oh, I didn't say anything.
00:05:47You know, a friend of mine actually designed these war balloons.
00:05:50- No kidding.
00:05:51- Yup. A balloon, but for war.
00:05:55- If there's one thing my dad's good at, it's war.
00:05:58- Yeah, it seems to run in the family.
00:06:00- Hey, hold on.
00:06:01Not everyone in my family is like that.
00:06:03- I know, I know. You've changed.
00:06:06- I meant my uncle.
00:06:08He was more of a father to me.
00:06:11And I really let him down.
00:06:13- I think your uncle would be proud of you.
00:06:16Leaving your home to come help us?
00:06:18That's hard.
00:06:19- It wasn't that hard. - Really?

00:06:24- Well, I did have a girlfriend, Mai.
00:06:28- That gloomy girl who sighs a lot?
00:06:30- Yeah.
00:06:33Everyone in the Fire Nation thinks I'm a traitor.

00:16:43- Yeah.
00:16:45- So they're completely insulated and sealed to keep the cold in.
00:16:48Well, to keep the cold in, it also has to keep the heat out, right?
00:16:53- Just get to the point, Sokka.
00:16:54- It's a perfect boat for getting through the boiling water.
00:16:59- The cooler as a boat? Are you sure?
00:17:02- I'm telling you, it'll work.
00:17:06I walked around the perimeter.
00:17:08There's a blind spot between two guard towers.
00:17:10It's the perfect launching point.
00:17:14I already tested it out.
00:17:16We'll roll the cooler into the water and just float with the current. It'll take us straight across.
00:17:21As long as we don't make a sound, no one will notice.

00:17:26- But how are you gonna get the cooler out?
00:17:28- Yeah, how are you gonna get the cooler out?
00:17:33- What? We didn't-- we didn't say that!
00:17:37- Yeah, you heard wrong.
