1
00:00:02,468 --> 00:00:03,468
Water.
2
00:00:04,941 --> 00:00:05,941
Earth.
3
00:00:06,622 --> 00:00:08,235
Fire.
4
00:00:09,227 --> 00:00:10,227
Air.
5
00:00:11,525 --> 00:00:14,413
Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony.
6
00:00:14,448 --> 00:00:18,741
Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked.
7
00:00:20,037 --> 00:00:23,687
Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them.
8
00:00:24,004 --> 00:00:26,767
But when the world needed him most, he vanished.
9
00:00:27,774 --> 00:00:30,823
A hundred years passed, and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar...
10
00:00:31,113 --> 00:00:32,836
...an airbender named Aang.
11
00:00:31,151 --> 00:00:33,256
And although his airbending skills are great.
12
00:00:35,629 --> 00:00:38,122
He has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone.
13
00:00:39,066 --> 00:00:41,839
But I believe Aang can save the world.
14
00:00:48,453 --> 00:00:50,534
Previously on "Avatar"...
15
00:00:50,535 --> 00:00:51,872
We need to find King Bumi,
16
00:00:51,872 --> 00:00:53,749
so Aang can learn earthbending somewhere safe.
17
00:00:54,106 --> 00:00:55,922
Sounds like you're headed to Omashu.
18
00:00:56,329 --> 00:01:01,662
I present to you the Earth Kingdom city of O... Oh, no...
19
00:01:01,697 --> 00:01:04,480
I guess I need to find someone else to teach me earthbending.
20
00:01:04,722 --> 00:01:09,437
You need to find someone who waits and listens before striking.
21
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,072
In the swamp we see visions of people we've lost,
22
00:01:13,072 --> 00:01:14,806
people we loved...
23
00:01:14,841 --> 00:01:17,420
But what about my vision? It was someone I had never met.
24
00:01:18,729 --> 00:01:20,170
Book Two: Earth
Chapter Six: The Blind Bandit
25
00:01:20,471 --> 00:01:22,471
mega awesome!
26
00:01:27,878 --> 00:01:31,780
It's pricey, but I really do like it.
27
00:01:32,382 --> 00:01:34,465
Then you should get it. You deserve something nice.
28
00:01:34,466 --> 00:01:39,463
I do, don't I? But no. It's too expensive, I shouldn't.
29
00:01:39,774 --> 00:01:41,143
Alright, then don't.
30
00:01:45,616 --> 00:01:46,969
You know what? I'm gonna get it.
31
00:01:49,459 --> 00:01:51,618
Psst, psst. Hey, you kids like earthbending?
32
00:01:51,619 --> 00:01:53,393
You like throwing rocks?
33
00:01:53,721 --> 00:01:56,631
Then check out Master Yu's Earthbending Academy.
34
00:01:59,149 --> 00:02:03,012
Look, there's a coupon on the back. The first lesson is free.
35
00:02:03,156 --> 00:02:04,494
Who knows? This Master Yu...
36
00:02:04,495 --> 00:02:07,185
Could be the earthbending teacher you've been looking for.
37
00:02:18,467 --> 00:02:19,843
Take your stances.
38
00:02:21,010 --> 00:02:24,764
Now, strike as if you're punching through your opponents head!
39
00:02:29,699 --> 00:02:32,526
So, are you ready to commit to more lessons?
40
00:02:32,527 --> 00:02:37,470
If you pay for the whole year in advance, I'll bump you up to the next belt.
41
00:02:40,684 --> 00:02:42,825
Ah, he's not the one.
42
00:02:43,783 --> 00:02:47,175
I think The Boulder is gonna win back the belt at Earth Rumble 6.
43
00:02:47,175 --> 00:02:50,586
He's gonna have to fight his way through the best earthbenders in the world ...
44
00:02:50,586 --> 00:02:52,047
...to even get a shot at the champ.
45
00:02:52,193 --> 00:02:54,833
Excuse me, but where is this earthbending tournament exactly?
46
00:02:54,834 --> 00:02:56,827
It's on the Island of Noneoya...
47
00:02:57,122 --> 00:02:58,362
none o' ya business!
48
00:03:03,342 --> 00:03:05,292
Oh, I got to remember that one.
49
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:06,811
I'll take care of this.
50
00:03:08,016 --> 00:03:10,037
Hey strong guys, wait up!
51
00:03:12,408 --> 00:03:14,994
What was I thinking? I don't need a new bag.
52
00:03:15,151 --> 00:03:16,621
Why'd you let me buy this?
53
00:03:21,008 --> 00:03:22,805
You ready to find an earthbending teacher?
54
00:03:22,806 --> 00:03:25,451
Because we're going to Earth Rumble 6!
55
00:03:25,895 --> 00:03:26,997
How did you get them to tell you?
56
00:03:27,356 --> 00:03:29,386
Oh, a girl has her ways.
57
00:03:38,074 --> 00:03:41,229
Hey, front row seats! I wonder why no one else is sitting here.
58
00:03:42,441 --> 00:03:43,934
I guess that's why.
59
00:03:51,697 --> 00:03:57,827
Welcome to Earth Rumble 6!
I am your host, Shin Fu!
60
00:03:59,281 --> 00:04:02,752
This is just gonna be a bunch of guys chuckin' rocks at each other, isn't it?
61
00:04:02,753 --> 00:04:04,337
That's what I paid for.
62
00:04:04,338 --> 00:04:06,449
The rules are simple.
63
00:04:06,650 --> 00:04:10,450
Just knock the other guy out of the ring and you win.
64
00:04:13,859 --> 00:04:20,391
Round one! The Boulder versus The Big Bad Hippo!
65
00:04:22,042 --> 00:04:26,297
Listen up, Hippo. You may be big, but you ain't bad!
66
00:04:26,298 --> 00:04:30,340
The Boulder's gonna win this in a landslide.
67
00:04:30,993 --> 00:04:33,664
Hippo mad!
68
00:04:45,710 --> 00:04:50,418
Unbelievable, ladies and gentlemen! The Hippo is rocking The Boulder!
69
00:05:04,368 --> 00:05:06,226
The Boulder wins!
70
00:05:08,045 --> 00:05:10,451
How about The Boulder? He's got some good moves.
71
00:05:10,452 --> 00:05:14,289
I don't know. Bumi said I need a teacher who listens to the earth.
72
00:05:14,455 --> 00:05:17,538
He's just listening to his big muscles. What do you think Sokka?
73
00:05:20,248 --> 00:05:21,114
Next match,
74
00:05:21,114 --> 00:05:26,426
The Boulder versus Fire Nation Man!
75
00:05:32,501 --> 00:05:36,722
Boo! Boo!
Please to rise for Fire Nation national anthem.
76
00:05:36,723 --> 00:05:42,446
♫ Fire Lord, my flame burns for thee! ♫
77
00:05:43,912 --> 00:05:46,331
Go back to the Fire Nation!
78
00:05:51,681 --> 00:05:53,623
No. No please!
79
00:06:02,738 --> 00:06:05,816
Yeah! Whoo! The Boulder knows how to put the hurt in the dirt! Yeah! Whoo!
80
00:06:26,656 --> 00:06:30,454
Now, the moment you've all been waiting for.
81
00:06:30,455 --> 00:06:36,822
The Boulder versus your champion...
The Blind Bandit!
82
00:06:41,496 --> 00:06:45,503
She can't really be blind. It's just part of her character, right?
83
00:06:45,905 --> 00:06:46,779
I think she is.
84
00:06:46,780 --> 00:06:49,180
I think she is... Going down!
85
00:06:51,327 --> 00:06:56,124
The Boulder feels conflicted about fighting a young, blind girl.
86
00:06:56,125 --> 00:06:59,548
Sounds to me like you're scared, Boulder.
87
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,950
The Boulder's over his conflicted feelings,...
88
00:07:03,951 --> 00:07:07,297
...and now he's ready to bury you in a rock-a-lanche!
89
00:07:08,070 --> 00:07:10,562
Whenever you're ready... The Pebble.
90
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:20,630
It's on!
91
00:07:57,491 --> 00:08:02,562
Your winner, and still the champion, The Blind Bandit!
92
00:08:04,759 --> 00:08:06,169
No!
93
00:08:06,652 --> 00:08:07,967
How did she do that?
94
00:08:08,405 --> 00:08:10,818
She waited, and listened.
95
00:08:13,889 --> 00:08:15,960
To make things a little more interesting,...
96
00:08:15,961 --> 00:08:18,608
...I'm offering up this sack of gold pieces
97
00:08:18,609 --> 00:08:22,571
to anyone who can defeat The Blind Bandit!
98
00:08:23,959 --> 00:08:27,148
What? No one dares to face her?
99
00:08:27,658 --> 00:08:28,409
I will!
100
00:08:32,983 --> 00:08:35,743
Go Aang! Avenge The Boulder!
101
00:08:36,167 --> 00:08:40,051
Do people really want to see two little girls fighting out here?
102
00:08:42,359 --> 00:08:45,038
I don't really want to fight you. I want to talk to you.
103
00:08:45,039 --> 00:08:47,719
Boo! No talking!
104
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:48,720
Don't boo at him.
105
00:08:58,155 --> 00:09:01,375
Somebody's a little light on his feet. What's your fighting name,
106
00:09:01,376 --> 00:09:02,885
The Fancy Dancer?
107
00:09:05,949 --> 00:09:07,351
Where'd you go?
108
00:09:08,151 --> 00:09:09,151
Please, wait!
110
00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:24,126
There you are!
111
00:09:24,127 --> 00:09:27,450
Please listen! I need an earthbending teacher,
and I think it's supposed to be you.
112
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,156
Whoever you are, just leave me alone.
113
00:09:32,623 --> 00:09:33,341
Wait!
114
00:09:41,777 --> 00:09:43,295
Way to go, champ!
115
00:09:50,470 --> 00:09:54,037
I gotta admit, now I'm really glad I bought this bag.
116
00:09:54,038 --> 00:09:56,339
It matches the belt perfectly.
117
00:09:56,682 --> 00:09:58,079
That is a big relief.
118
00:09:58,631 --> 00:10:00,352
If we want to find The Blind Bandit,...
119
00:10:00,353 --> 00:10:02,495
...the Earthbending Academy is a good place to start.
120
00:10:06,631 --> 00:10:08,716
Oh great, you again.
121
00:10:11,010 --> 00:10:12,318
Yeah, I didn't think so.
122
00:10:13,018 --> 00:10:13,890
Nicely done.
123
00:10:13,891 --> 00:10:16,685
Hey, you're the kid who beat The Blind Bandit.
124
00:10:16,815 --> 00:10:19,930
We need to talk to her. Do you guys know where she lives?
125
00:10:20,230 --> 00:10:24,336
The Blind Bandit's a mystery. She shows up to fight, then disappears.
126
00:10:25,739 --> 00:10:27,060
Let me handle this.
127
00:10:27,834 --> 00:10:29,240
You're not telling us everything!
128
00:10:29,544 --> 00:10:31,406
No no, I swear it's true!
129
00:10:31,406 --> 00:10:34,119
No one knows where she goes, or who she really is.
130
00:10:34,377 --> 00:10:36,975
That's because we're asking about the wrong person.
131
00:10:36,976 --> 00:10:39,979
In my vision, I saw a girl in a white dress with a pet flying boar.
133
00:10:41,591 --> 00:10:42,924
Know anybody like that?
134
00:10:43,295 --> 00:10:46,191
Well, a flying boar is the symbol of the Bei Fong family.
135
00:10:46,191 --> 00:10:49,843
They're the richest people in town, probably the whole world.
136
00:10:49,843 --> 00:10:51,609
Yeah, but they don't have a daughter.
137
00:10:51,820 --> 00:10:54,709
Flying boar is good enough for me. Let's check it out.
138
00:10:55,002 --> 00:10:56,756
Yeah, you better leave.
139
00:10:57,407 --> 00:10:59,507
Hey, I've got my eye on you.
140
00:11:00,639 --> 00:11:01,570
Water Tribe.
141
00:11:03,605 --> 00:11:08,355
I'm telling you, The Boulder was standing right there.I saw the kid strike,
142
00:11:08,356 --> 00:11:11,738
but there was no earthbending.Nothing made contact.
143
00:11:11,738 --> 00:11:14,084
The Blind Bandit just fell out of the ring.
144
00:11:14,084 --> 00:11:17,602
She must have took a dive and split the money with the kid.
145
00:11:22,850 --> 00:11:24,569
Nobody cheats Xin Fu.
146
00:11:31,289 --> 00:11:33,831
That's the flying boar from my vision. Come on.
147
00:11:49,757 --> 00:11:51,800
What are you doing here, Twinkle Toes?
148
00:11:52,253 --> 00:11:53,109
How did you know it was me?
149
00:11:53,565 --> 00:11:56,069
Don't answer to Twinkle Toes. It's not manly!
150
00:11:56,662 --> 00:11:58,752
You're the one whose bag matches his belt.
151
00:11:59,094 --> 00:12:00,180
How did you find me?
152
00:12:00,181 --> 00:12:02,182
Well, a crazy king told me I had to find
153
00:12:02,283 --> 00:12:03,783
an earthbender who listens to the earth.
154
00:12:03,983 --> 00:12:06,640
And then I had a vision in a magic swamp and...
155
00:12:06,641 --> 00:12:09,796
What Aang is trying to say is, he's the Avatar,...
156
00:12:09,797 --> 00:12:13,738
...and if he doesn't master earthbending soon, he won't be able to defeat the Fire Lord.
157
00:12:13,739 --> 00:12:15,446
Not my problem.
158
00:12:15,447 --> 00:12:19,096
Now get out of here or I'll call the guards.
159
00:12:19,097 --> 00:12:21,677
Look, we all have to do our part to win this war.
160
00:12:21,678 --> 00:12:23,955
And yours is to teach Aang earthbending.
161
00:12:24,813 --> 00:12:27,188
Guards! Guards, help!
162
00:12:30,316 --> 00:12:31,549
Toph, what happened?
163
00:12:32,061 --> 00:12:35,387
I thought I heard someone. I got scared.
164
00:12:36,142 --> 00:12:40,336
You know your father doesn't want you,
wandering the grounds without supervision, Toph.
165
00:12:49,208 --> 00:12:52,365
I'm pleased to hear that Toph's private lessons are going well,...
166
00:12:52,366 --> 00:12:56,185
...but I want to be sure that she's not trying anything too dangerous.
167
00:12:56,186 --> 00:13:01,520
Absolutely not. I'm keeping her at the beginner's level basic forms
168
00:13:01,521 --> 00:13:03,599
and breathing exercises only.
169
00:13:03,884 --> 00:13:04,524
Very good.
170
00:13:05,895 --> 00:13:09,274
Excuse me sir, but you have a visitor.
171
00:13:09,746 --> 00:13:13,153
Who thinks they are so important they can just come to my home unannounced?
172
00:13:14,222 --> 00:13:16,632
Uh, the Avatar, Sir.
173
00:13:28,044 --> 00:13:30,121
Blow on it. It's too hot for her.
174
00:13:30,528 --> 00:13:31,466
Allow me.
Oh my!
175
00:13:35,706 --> 00:13:39,362
Avatar Aang, it's an honor to have you visit us.
176
00:13:40,251 --> 00:13:43,540
In your opinion, how much longer do you think the war will last?
177
00:13:44,137 --> 00:13:47,398
I'd like to defeat the Fire Lord by the end of summer,...
178
00:13:47,399 --> 00:13:51,432
...but I can't do that without finding an earthbending teacher first.
179
00:13:52,251 --> 00:13:55,463
Well, Master Yu is the finest teacher in the land.
180
00:13:55,463 --> 00:13:57,574
He's been teaching Toph since she was little.
181
00:13:58,054 --> 00:13:59,926
Then she must be a great earthbender,...
182
00:14:00,884 --> 00:14:02,708
...probably good enough to teach someone else.
183
00:14:07,056 --> 00:14:08,984
Toph is still learning the basics.
184
00:14:09,777 --> 00:14:12,312
Yes, and sadly because of her blindness,...
185
00:14:12,313 --> 00:14:14,557
...I don't think she will ever become a true master.
186
00:14:16,625 --> 00:14:19,075
Oh, I'm sure she's better than you think she is.
187
00:14:36,260 --> 00:14:37,378
What's your problem?
188
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,097
What's your problem?
189
00:14:41,966 --> 00:14:45,716
Well, shall we move to the living room for dessert then?
190
00:14:50,044 --> 00:14:51,044
Good night buddy.
191
00:14:54,790 --> 00:14:59,564
Relax. Look, I'm sorry about dinner. Let's call a truce, okay?
192
00:15:02,409 --> 00:15:06,087
Even though I was born blind, I've never had a problem seeing.
193
00:15:08,006 --> 00:15:12,005
I see with earthbending. It's kind of like seeing with my feet.
194
00:15:12,537 --> 00:15:17,079
I feel the vibrations in the earth, and I can see where everything is.
195
00:15:17,933 --> 00:15:21,821
You, that tree, even those ants.
196
00:15:25,167 --> 00:15:26,530
That's amazing.
197
00:15:26,644 --> 00:15:28,818
My parents don't understand.
198
00:15:29,019 --> 00:15:31,819
They've always treated me like I was helpless.
199
00:15:32,597 --> 00:15:34,369
Is that why you became The Blind Bandit?
200
00:15:34,962 --> 00:15:35,96
Yeah.
201
00:15:36,161 --> 00:15:38,556
Then why stay here where you're not happy?
202
00:15:38,556 --> 00:15:41,815
They're my parents. Where else am I supposed to go?
203
00:15:43,642 --> 00:15:44,730
You could come with us.
204
00:15:44,731 --> 00:15:47,514
Yeah. You guys get to go wherever you want.
205
00:15:47,514 --> 00:15:51,274
No one telling you what to do, that's the life.
206
00:15:52,159 --> 00:15:54,377
It's just not my life.
207
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:58,721
We're being ambushed.
208
00:16:16,194 --> 00:16:19,257
I think you kids owe me some money.
209
00:16:25,284 --> 00:16:27,217
Whoever took Aang and Toph left this.
210
00:16:28,409 --> 00:16:32,424
"If you want to see your daughter again, bring 500 gold pieces to the arena."
211
00:16:32,424 --> 00:16:34,639
It's signed "Xin Fu and The Boulder."
212
00:16:35,030 --> 00:16:36,172
I can't believe it.
213
00:16:37,327 --> 00:16:39,423
I have the Boulder's autograph!
214
00:16:41,392 --> 00:16:44,439
Master Yu, I need you to help you get my daughter back.
215
00:16:44,439 --> 00:16:45,981
We're going with you.
216
00:16:47,173 --> 00:16:50,187
Poor Toph. She must be so scared.
217
00:16:50,379 --> 00:16:51,930
You think you're so tough...
218
00:16:51,931 --> 00:16:54,666
...why don't you come up here so I can smack that grin off your face?
219
00:16:55,235 --> 00:16:56,604
I'm not smiling.
220
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:58,340
Toph!
221
00:16:59,304 --> 00:17:01,303
Here's your money. Now let them go.
222
00:17:12,830 --> 00:17:13,617
What about Aang?
223
00:17:13,922 --> 00:17:17,608
I think the Fire Nation will pay a hefty price for the Avatar.
224
00:17:17,609 --> 00:17:20,402
Now, get out of my ring.
225
00:17:37,158 --> 00:17:38,639
Go. I'll be ok.
226
00:17:42,316 --> 00:17:44,034
Toph, there's too many of them.
227
00:17:44,335 --> 00:17:46,835
We need an earthbender. We need you!
228
00:17:47,384 --> 00:17:48,792
My daughter is blind.
229
00:17:48,793 --> 00:17:53,992
She is blind and tiny and helpless and fragile.
She cannot help you.
230
00:17:54,869 --> 00:17:56,721
Yes, I can.
231
00:18:03,851 --> 00:18:07,958
Let him go. I beat you all before, and I'll do it again.
232
00:18:08,389 --> 00:18:11,050
The Boulder takes issue with that comment.
233
00:18:14,218 --> 00:18:15,024
Wait.
234
00:18:21,401 --> 00:18:22,417
They're mine.
235
00:19:11,140 --> 00:19:12,094
Hit it harder!
236
00:19:12,095 --> 00:19:13,199
I'm trying!
237
00:20:14,888 --> 00:20:17,726
I never knew. Your daughter's amazing.
238
00:21:09,898 --> 00:21:13,993
She's the greatest earthbender I've ever seen!
239
00:21:15,877 --> 00:21:19,424
Dad, I know it's probably hard for you to see me this way,...
240
00:21:19,425 --> 00:21:24,191
...but the obedient little helpless blind girl that you think I am just isn't me.
241
00:21:24,781 --> 00:21:28,205
I love fighting. I love being an earthbender.
242
00:21:28,897 --> 00:21:31,150
And I'm really, really good at it.
243
00:21:31,836 --> 00:21:34,080
I know I've kept my life secret from you,...
244
00:21:34,081 --> 00:21:36,902
...but you were keeping me secret from the whole world.
245
00:21:37,266 --> 00:21:38,796
You were doing it to protect me.
246
00:21:38,797 --> 00:21:42,061
But I'm twelve years old and I've never had a real friend.
247
00:21:44,146 --> 00:21:46,001
So now that you see who I really am,...
248
00:21:46,002 --> 00:21:48,750
...I hope it doesn't change the way you feel about me.
249
00:21:48,751 --> 00:21:51,723
Of course it doesn't change the way I feel about you, Toph.
250
00:21:52,323 --> 00:21:54,092
It's made me realize something.
251
00:21:54,769 --> 00:21:55,765
It has?
252
00:21:55,766 --> 00:21:59,208
Yes. I've let you have far too much freedom.
253
00:21:59,209 --> 00:22:03,572
From now on, you will be cared for and guarded 24 hours a day.
254
00:22:03,869 --> 00:22:04,573
But dad!
255
00:22:04,574 --> 00:22:07,283
We are doing this for your own good, Toph.
256
00:22:07,783 --> 00:22:13,180
Please escort the Avatar and his friends out. They are no longer welcome here.
257
00:22:13,901 --> 00:22:15,342
I'm sorry, Toph.
258
00:22:15,407 --> 00:22:18,993
I'm sorry, too. Good bye, Aang.
259
00:22:23,770 --> 00:22:26,076
Don't worry. We'll find you a teacher.
260
00:22:26,077 --> 00:22:29,090
There are plenty of amazing earthbenders out there.
261
00:22:29,091 --> 00:22:30,685
Not like her.
262
00:22:40,905 --> 00:22:42,773
Toph! What are you doing here?
263
00:22:42,774 --> 00:22:46,743
My dad changed his mind. He said I was free to travel the world.
264
00:22:48,496 --> 00:22:52,738
Well, we'd better get out of here... before your dad changes his mind again.
265
00:22:53,171 --> 00:22:53,739
Good idea.
266
00:22:54,458 --> 00:22:56,420
You're gonna be a great teacher, Toph.
267
00:22:57,164 --> 00:23:00,002
Speaking of which, I want to show you something.
268
00:23:00,003 --> 00:23:01,003
Okay.
269
00:23:03,207 --> 00:23:04,560
Now we're even.
270
00:23:05,073 --> 00:23:06,708
Um, I'll take the belt back.
271
00:23:11,474 --> 00:23:12,376
Sorry.
272
00:23:14,651 --> 00:23:16,727
I know you two are very different...
273
00:23:16,728 --> 00:23:19,586
...but I believe you have a common interest.
274
00:23:23,971 --> 00:23:26,279
The Avatar has kidnapped my daughter.
275
00:23:27,078 --> 00:23:31,469
I want you to do whatever it takes to bring her home.
276
00:23:40,470 --> 00:23:43,470
cucu
