Transcript:The Awakening

[Onboard a Fire Nation ship, Aang finally regains consciousness. He is visibily shaken and in pain.]

Aang: What happened? [Sees the Fire Nation designs and flag.] Oh no! [He leaves his room, and sees two "guards", who are Pipsqueak and The Duke, actually.]

Pipsqueak: You hear something? [Aang hits them with an airblast.] He's awake! [They all run.] Stop! Wait!

[Aang makes it to the top of the ship, and loses his staff. It slides to a point where Hakoda and Bato are standing with Momo.]

Aang: Momo? [Momo runs towards Aang, jumps on his soldier and licks his face.]

[Toph and Katara, near the edge of the ship, hear the events.]

Toph: Twinkletoes! That's got to be you!

Katara: Aang, you're awake!

Aang: Are you sure? I feel like I'm dreaming.

Katara: [Hugs Aang] You're not dreaming. You're finally awake.

Sokka: [Hugs Aang, and also in a Fire Nation guard uniform.] Aang, good to see you back with the living, buddy!

Aang: Sokka? [Breathes heavily, appears to be passing out.]

Toph: Uh-oh, somebody catch him, he's going to---

[Aang collapses to the floor.]

[Meanwhile, on another ship, Zuko is heading towards the Fire Nation. Mai joins him.]

Mai: Aren't you cold?

Zuko: I've got a lot on my mind. It's been so long, over 3 years since I was home. I wonder what's changed. I wonder how I've changed.

Mai: [Yawns.] I just asked if you were cold, I didn't ask for your whole life story. Stop worrying.

[The two kiss. Mai exits.]

[We return to the ship where Team Avatar is on. Aang is awake once again.]

Aang: Why are we on a Fire Nation ship? Why is everyone dressed this way? And why am I the only one who's completely out of it?

Katara: You need to take it easy, OK? You got hurt pretty bad. I like your hair.

Aang: I have hair? [Feels for it.] How long was I out?http://nicktoons.nick.com/videos/clip/awakening-full-episode.html

Katara: A few weeks.

Hakoda: Everything OK?

Katara: We're fine, Dad.

Hakoda [To Aang]: I'm Hakoda, Katara and Sokka's father.

Katara: He knows who you are, I just called you "Dad", didn't I?

Hakoda: I guess you're right.

Aang: Nice to officially meet you, Chief Hakoda.

Hakoda: It's an honor to meet you.

Katara: Great, great, so now you guys have finally met. So, would you mind giving us a little privacy?

Hakoda: Of course. [Walks away.]

Aang: Are you mad at your Dad or something?

Katara: What, not at all. Why would you say that?

Aang: Mmmm...[feels pain.] Errr!

Katara: Maybe we should go upstairs. You need a healing session.

[Back in Aang's room on the ship. Katara bends some water onto the scar left by Azula's lightning attack.]

Katara: Tell me where the pain feels most intense.

Aang: Mmm, a little higher. Uhhh!

[Aang flashes back to the battle where he rises into the Avatar State. then suddenly returns to reality.]

Aang: Wow, you're definitely in the right area there.

Katara: I can feel a lot of energy twisted up around there. [Moves to remove the water] Let me just see if I can---

[Aang again flashes back to the battle, to the moment where he was attacked, then to the scene where Katara is looking over him, upset. After that, it's back to reality.]

Aang: I went down! I didn't just get hurt, did I? It was worse than that. I was gone! But you brought me back.

Katara: I just used the spirit water from the North Pole. I don't know what I did exactly.

Aang: You saved me.

Katara: You need to rest.

[Back at the Fire Nation Capital.]

Li: Your Princess Azula, clever and beautiful, disguised herself as the enemy, entered the Earth Kingdom Capital in Ba Sing Se, she found her brother Zuko, and together they faced the Avatar...

Li and Lo: And the Avatar fell! And the Earth Kingdom fell!

Li: Azula's agents quickly overtook the entire city. They went to Ba Sing Se's great walls..

Li and Lo: And brought them down!

Li: The armies of the Fire Nation surged through the walls, swarmed over Ba Sing Se, securing our victory!

[A flashback shows the Dai Li taking down Ba Sing's Se walls and the Fire Nation troops entering the city.]

Li and Lo: Now the heroes have returned home!

Lo: Your princess, Azula...[Crowd cheers.]

Li: And after 3 long years, your prince has returned...

Li and Lo: Zuko! [Crowd cheers.]

[We now go back to Team Avatar's ship.]

Sokka: After what happened at Ba Sing Se, we had to get you to safety. We flew back to Chameleon Bay, where we found my father, and the other Water Tribe men. The Earth King decided he wanted to travel the world in disguise, so we set off alone. Well, not completely alone. Soon, the bay was overrun by Fire Nation ships. Rather than fight them all, we captured a single ship, and made it our disguise. Since then we've been traveling west. We crossed through the Serpent's Pass a few days ago. We've seen a few Fire Nation ships, but none have bothered us.

Aang: So what now?

Hakoda: We've been working on a modified version of the invasion plan.

Katara: It's Sokka's invasion plan.

Hakoda: Yes, Sokka's plan. We won't be able to mount a massive invasion without the Earth King's armies, but the solar eclipse will still leave the Fire Nation vulnerable.

Sokka: So we're planning a smaller invasion. Just a ragtag team of our friends and allies from around the Earth Kingdom. We already ran into Pipsqueak and The Duke.

Pipsqueak: Good to see you again, Aang!

Sokka: And the best part is, the eclipse isn't even our biggest advantage! [Whispers] We have a secret...you!

Aang: Me?

Sokka: Yep, the whole world thinks you're dead! Isn't that great?

[Aang is shocked.]
