Just because you don't understand why it's important doesn't mean I'll yield to every childish request, Asami! Those people--they've poisoned you. Against me, against our cause... [sigh his life is so hard] I don't even know where to begin getting you back.
[o/////o] I only hope for the day when all our loyalty and dedication will be rewarded. Too many of our Equalist brothers and sisters still live in the dark.
I don't think I'm the one being childish here, Dad. Do you even hear yourself? Eliminating benders from the world is going to do what, stop the formation of street gangs? In case you haven't noticed, you're not a bender, and you've managed to cause plenty of damage.
Indeed, but the light has finally started to show in Republic City. Soon we'll be free of the tyranny of Benders, and we will light the way for the rest of the world.
Family. [Oh wow unintentionally OR ENTIRELY INTENTIONALLY, YOU SCHEMER low blow.] ... Yes, indeed. Family always has a way of haunting one's own design.
Don't you dare speak to me like that. What I'm doing--it's for you! Your future and the world's. But it seems I may have no choice but to make you understand.
[he literally tsks] It's not as though you had a choice. Tell me, how does it feel to sit back and watch all your techniques go to dust? You're part of a dying breed, Yakone. [NO.....................]
