Quotes 

• Jinora : Oh, I just read a historical saga where the heroine fell in love with the enemy generals son, who was supposed to marry the princess. You should do what she did!

  Korra : Tell me!

  Jinora : She rode a dragon into battle and burned down the entire country, then she jumped into a volcano. It was so romantic.

• Bolin : So Korra, I was thinking, you and me we can go and get some dinner together, sort of a date situation.

  Korra : Oh, that's really sweet, but I don't think so. I don't feel very date worthy.

  Bolin : Are you kidding me? You're the smartest, funniest, toughest, buffest, talented incrediblest girl in the world

  Korra : You really feel that way about me?

  Bolin : I felt that way since the moment I saw you! Trust me I know we're going to have so much fun together.

  Korra : You know what? I could use some fun. Okay, sure.

  Bolin : Yes! Who the luckiest guy in the world? Right here! Bolin!

• Ikki : No! No! No! The best way to win a boy's heart is to brew a love potion of rainbows and sunsets that makes true lovers sprout wings and fly to a magical castle in the sky where they get married and eat clouds with spoons and use stars as ice cubes in their moonlight punch for ever and ever and EVER!

  Korra : ...The volcano is starting to make more sense to me now.

• Bolin : Need some medical attention over here.

  Korra : Here. Let me help.

  Bolin : Ah! Haven't you hurt me enough women?

  Korra : Relax. I'm a healer! I learned from Katara, the best there is!

  Bolin : No, no, no, no, no, ohhhh. That's the stuff.

  Korra : Bolin. I'm sorry I hurt your feelings. I didn't mean to let things get so out of hand.

  Bolin : Aw, I'll be alright. But we had fun together didn't we?

  Korra : I had a great time, honestly! You are one of a kind Bolin.

  Bolin : Please, go on. I enjoy praise.

• Mako : Okay, come on team, huddle time. Um. Its our first match of the tournament tonight, I know the 3 of us haven't been a team for very long but even so, the Fire Ferrets have never been this good. Are we ready?

  Bolin , Korra : We're ready!

• Bolin : Oooh Korra. There they go. Here we are. All alone in the gym. Just you and me. Two alone people. Together... alone.

  Korra : I gotta head back to the Air Temple to train with Tenzin. See ya!

• Jinora : So, how's it going with the tall dreamy fire bender boy? You've been spending a lot of time together lately.

  Ikki : Oh yeah! Tell us all about the magical romance!

  Korra : What? Listen to you two. I'm not interested in Mako or any romantic stuff Besides, he's all into that prissy, beautiful, elegant, rich girl. But lets just pretend for a second I am interested in him, what would I do?

• Tahno : Well, well, well. If it isn't the Fire Ferrets, probending's saddest excuse for a team. Tell me, how do a couple of amateurs, like you, luck your way into the tournament. Especially, you. Avatar.

  [Korra scoffs] 

  Tahno : You know, if you'd like to learn how a real pro bends, I could give you some private lessons.

  Korra : You wanna go toe to toe with me, pretty boy?

  Tahno : Go for it. I'll give you the first shot.

• Mako : What kind of game are you playing?

  Korra : Uh, probending. We've got a quarter final match.

  Mako : No, I mean with Bolin, you got him all in a tizzy and I know your only using him to get back at me.

  Korra : I am not. We're just having fun together. What do you care anyway?

  Mako : I'm looking out for my little brother, I don't want to see his heart get broken.

  Korra : Wait a second. You're not worried about him. You're jealous! You do have feelings for me!

  Mako : What? Jealous? Don't be ridiculous

  Korra : Admit it! You like me.

  Mako : No, I'm with Asami.

  Korra : Yeah, but when your with her, your thinking about me, aren't you?

  Mako : Get over yourself!

  Korra : I'm just being honest!

  Mako : You're crazy!

  Korra : You're a liar!

• Mako : We need to talk. Sometimes you can be so infuriating...

  Korra : Save your breath, you've already made it clear how you feel about me.

  Mako : No, I haven't. What I'm trying to say is as much as you drive me crazy, I also think your pretty amazing.

  Korra : So you do like me...

  Mako : Yes! But I like Asami too. I don't know things are complicated. I'm feeling really confused and I...

  [Korra kisses Mako] 

• Mako : Great! Look what you did!

  Korra : Your blaming me?

  Mako : YOU kissed ME!

  Korra : YOU kissed ME back!

• Korra : Well played, Korra.

• Mako : Well, I guess there's always next year.

  Korra : Come on! We still have a chance! Even if it's a slim one.

  Bolin : The way we're playing, we don't even deserve to be in the finals.

  Korra : Look. If we don't pull together and work as a team, we'll never forgive ourselves.

  Mako : Let's just get this over with.

  Bolin : The sooner the better.

• Bolin : That was pretty much the coolest thing I've ever seen.

  Mako : Thanks for not giving up on us. We never would have made it this far without you. I owe you big time.

  Korra : Your welcome. So I know things are confusing right now, but I hope we can still be friends.

  Mako : Definitely.

• Tahno : You boys smell something in here? Wait, I know what that is. That's the scent of losers.

  Korra : I hope we see you in the finals. Then we'll see who the losers really are.

  Tahno : Yeah, I'm peeing my pants over here.

• Ring Announcer : Your winners, the Wolfbats!

  Korra : What? How is it over already?

  Radio Broadcaster : With a brutal Round One knockout, the defending champs secure their spot in the finals. I hope the Ferrets know a good doctor, 'cause they're gonna need one!

• Mako : You were supposed to defend, while I attack!

  Korra : I had an opening so I took it!

  Bolin : What is up with you two? Alright, whatever. Just pull it together!

• Asami Sato : Great job! What a come back, Korra. I've never seen a hat trick like that

  Korra : Thanks. But if it hadn't been for you and your father, we wouldn't have had the chance to play. So thank you.
