Avatar: The Last Airbender (2003–2008): Season 3, Episode 14 - The Boiling Rock: Part 1 - full transcript
Sokka and Zuko head to the Fire Nation's most heavily guarded prison -- the Boiling Rock -- in hopes to find and break-out the captured invasion force.
KATARA: Water.
Earth.
Fire.
Air.
Long ago, the four nations
lived together in harmony.
Then, everything changed
when the Fire Nation attacked.
Only the Avatar,
master of all four elements,
could stop them.
But when the world needed him most,
he vanished.
A hundred years passed,
and my brother and I discovered
the new Avatar, an airbender named Aang.
And although
his airbending skills are great,
he has a lot to learn
before he's ready to save anyone.
AANG: Oof!
But I believe Aang can save the world.
♪
[NARRATOR READING]
Sokka's your name, right?
My favorite prisoner used
to mention you all the time.
She was convinced you were
going to come rescue her.
Of course, you never came,
and she gave up on you.
Where is Suki?
How are we all gonna escape?
We're not. You kids have to leave.
You have to escape on Appa together.
Goodbye, Dad.
We won't be apart
for too long this time. I promise.

ZUKO: No one can make tea like Uncle.
But, hopefully, I learned a thing or two.
Would you like to hear
Uncle's favorite tea joke?
KATARA: Sure.
AANG: I like jokes.
TOPH: Bring it!
Okay, well, I can't
remember how it starts,
but the punchline is
"Leaf me alone. I'm bushed!"
[CRICKETS CHIRPING]
Well, it's funnier when Uncle tells it.
Right.
Maybe that's because he
remembers the whole thing.
[LAUGHTER]
It's nice to get a
chance to relax a little.
It hardly ever happens.
Hey, can I talk to you for a second?
So what's up?
SOKKA: If someone was
captured by the Fire Nation,
where would they be taken?
ZUKO: What do you mean? Who was captured?
When the invasion plan failed,
some of our troops were taken.
I just want to know where they might be.
I can't tell you.
What? Why not?
Trust me. Knowing will just
make you feel worse.
It's my dad. He was captured, too.
I need to know what I put him through.
-It's not good, Sokka.
-Please.
My guess is they were taken
to the Boiling Rock.
What's that?
ZUKO: The highest-security
prison in the Fire Nation.
It's on an island
in the middle of the boiling lake.
-It's inescapable.
-So where is this place?
Why do you need to know?
What are you planning?
Nothing.
Boy, you're so paranoid.
It's in the middle of a volcano
between here and the Fire Nation.
You guys actually flew right
past it on the way here.
Thanks, Zuko. [YAWNS]
Just knowing makes me feel better.
Yeah, I'm sure it does.

Fine, you caught me.
I'm gonna rescue my dad. You happy now?
I'm never happy.
Look, I have to do this.
The invasion plan was my idea.
It was my decision to stay
when things were going wrong.
It's my mistake,
and it's my job to fix it.
I have to regain my honor.
You can't stop me, Zuko.
You need to regain your honor?
Believe me, I get it.
I'm going with you.
No! I have to do this alone.
How are you going to get there? On Appa?
Last time I checked, prisons
don't have bison daycares.

What? Oh, I didn't say anything.
You know, a friend of mine
actually designed these war balloons.
No kidding.
Yup. A balloon, but for war.
If there's one thing my
dad's good at, it's war.
Yeah, it seems to run in the family.
Hey, hold on.
Not everyone in my family is like that.
I know, I know. You've changed.
I meant my uncle.
He was more of a father to me.
And I really let him down.
I think your uncle would be proud of you.
Leaving your home to come help us?
That's hard.
It wasn't that hard.
Really? You didn't leave behind
anyone you cared about?
Well, I did have a girlfriend, Mai.
That gloomy girl who sighs a lot?
Yeah.
Everyone in the Fire Nation
thinks I'm a traitor.
I couldn't drag her into it.
My first girlfriend turned into the moon.
That's rough, buddy.

[FIRE RUMBLING]

We're going down.
The balloon's not working anymore.

My dad might be here.
I had to come and see.
ZUKO: Uncle always said I never
thought things through.
But this? [SIGHS]
This is just crazy!
Hey, I never wanted you
to come along in the first place.
And for the record,
I always think things through.
But my plans haven't exactly worked.
So this time, I'm playing it by ear.
So there!

ZUKO: What are you doing?
It doesn't work anyway, and
we don't want anyone to find it.
I hope you know what you're doing.

No, you can't date the female guards.

Zuko?
Shh!
Listen, I asked around the lounge.
There are no Water Tribe prisoners.
I'm afraid your father's not here.
What? Are you sure?
Did you double check?
Yeah, I'm sure.
No. No!
I'm really sorry, Sokka.
So we came all this way for nothing?
I failed... again.
Ah, what would Uncle say?
Sometimes clouds have two sides,
a dark and light,
and a silver lining in between.
It's like a silver sandwich.
So when life seems hard,
take a bite out of the silver sandwich.
Maybe we haven't failed after all!
That's the spirit!
I can't believe that worked.
I didn't even know what I was saying.
No, what you said made no sense at all.

Well, well, well.
I never thought I'd find you
in here, Prince Zuko.
How did you know who I am?
How could I not?
You broke my niece's heart.
You're Mai's uncle?
I never meant to hurt her.
Quiet!
You're my special prisoner now.
And you best behave.
If these criminals found out who you are,
the traitor prince
who let his nation down,
why, they'd tear you to shreds.
So what's in it for you?
Why don't you just tell my father
and collect a reward?
Oh, in due time, believe me.
I intend to collect.
[FOOTSTEPS]
Oh, good. You guys have met.
Actually, we met a long time ago.
We did?
Yeah, you kinda burned down my village.
Oh, sorry about that.
Nice to see you again.
So listen, I think I have an escape plan.
I checked out the coolers again.
The whole point of them
is to keep firebenders contained, right?
Yeah.
So they're completely insulated and sealed
to keep the cold in.
Well, to keep the cold in,
it also has to keep the heat out, right?
Just get to the point, Sokka.
It's a perfect boat
for getting through the boiling water.
The cooler as a boat? Are you sure?
I'm telling you, it'll work.
I walked around the perimeter.
There's a blind spot
between two guard towers.
It's the perfect launching point.
I already tested it out.
We'll roll the cooler into the water
and just float with the current.
It'll take us straight across.
As long as we don't make a sound,
no one will notice.
And bing, bang, boom, we're home free!
But how are you gonna get the cooler out?
Yeah, how are you
gonna get the cooler out?
What? We didn't... We didn't say that!
Yeah, you heard wrong.
I heard you hatching
an escape plan, and I want in.
There's nothing to get in on.
Yeah, the only thing
we're hatching is... an egg?
[SIGHING]
Okay, well, I come with you,
or the warden hears about this egg, too.
I guess we have no choice.
Okay, you're in.
Now, first we need someone
to unbolt the cooler
from the inside.
Oh, I can get you inside.

[EXHALES]
-I'm telling you, it wasn't me.
-Save your breath.
I know you've been working together.
You threw Chit Sang in the very
cooler they used to escape.
It was all part of your plan.
That was just a coincidence!
[DOOR OPENS]
Sir, there's someone to see you.
Who told you to interrupt me?
I did.
WARDEN: Princess Azula!
Uh, it is an honor to welcome you
to the Fire Nation's
most exemplary prison.
I didn't realize you were coming.
Who is this?
He's a guard
who was involved in a recent
and feeble escape attempt.
-It wasn't me!
-Quiet, you!
You're wasting your time.
That's not one of them.
-How do you know?
-Because I'm a people person.
[CLANK]
[FOOTSTEPS]
Hey, I just got orders.
Let the prisoners out into the yard.
But we're in the middle of lock-down.
Oh, okay.
I'll just go tell the
warden you said that.
I'm sure he'll be glad
to hear about you
undermining his authority.
What's your name again?
Wait, uh, don't tell the warden.
I'm just a little confused.
Hey, I'm confused, too.
But the warden's in a
bad mood and irrational.
So if you ask me,
it's best not to question it
and just do what he says.
Yeah, you're right.
-We're letting them out!
-[BELL RINGING]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
This is it. We have to start a riot.
Okay, but how do we do that?
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
I'll show you.
[GRUNTS]
Hey! What did you do that for?
That hurt my feelings.
Aren't you mad at me?
Uh, well, normally I would be,
but I've been learning
to control my anger.
[SQUEAKING]
This isn't working.
Hey, you!
You're lucky I didn't rat you out.
But my generosity comes with a price.
I know you're planning another
escape attempt, and I want in.
Actually, we're trying
to escape right now,
but we need a riot.
You wouldn't happen to know
how to start one, would you?
A prison riot? Please.
[GASPS]
Hey! Riot!
[PRISONERS SHOUTING]
Impressive.
Forget about controlling my anger.
Let's riot! Whoa!

prisoners into the yard?

[TWINKLING]
Ma'am, there's a riot going on.
I'm here to protect you.
-I don't need any protection.
-Heh, believe me, she doesn't.
I'm sorry, but I'm under
direct orders from your uncle
to make sure nothing happens.
[FIRE RUMBLING]
Get off of me!
[SHOUTING]
[SHOOTING]
Zuko, good. We're all here.
Now, all we need to do
is grab the warden
and get to the gondolas.
And how do we do that?
I'm not sure.
Ugh, I thought you'd thought this through!
I thought you told me
it's okay not to think everything through!
Maybe not everything,
but this is kind of important.
CHIT SANG: Hey, uh, fellas?
I think your girlfriend's
taking care of it.
