The Legend of Korra/Recap/B1/E10 Turning the Tides


This page needs some cleaning up to be presentable.

This page has too many spoiler tags, to the point that the page is unreadable. Somebody who is familiar with the work needs to identify what is not actually a spoiler and un-hide it; if everything that is tagged as spoilers actually are spoilers, then the page needs to be marked at the very beginning as containing multiple spoilers and all of the spoiler tags removed. Please see All The Tropes:Style Guide/Spoilers for further information and editing guidelines.

After recovering from her abduction, Korra tells her story, and Tenzin asks Lin to protect his family while he attends the morning's council meeting. Tenzin is attacked at City Hall, and though he defeats his would-be abductors, he learns that the other council members have been captured by Equalists and that the city is under a full-scale attack by Equalists heavily armed with Sato's newest weaponry and military technology. Amon's airships bomb Republic City as Tenzin reaches police headquarters, where he wires the United Forces, the military of the United Republic, for help. Equalist 'mecha-tanks' capture Chief Saikhan and many officers. Korra and her friends rescue Tenzin. Tenzin's wife, Pemma gives birth to her fourth child, Rohan, as Equalist airships arrive at Air Temple Island. Lin Beifong, with the help of Tenzin's other three children, all airbenders, defeats the invaders. Korra goes into hiding and Tenzin flees with his family to preserve the last airbenders. Lin destroys an airship pursuing them, but is captured and refuses to reveal Korra's whereabouts, and is stripped of her bending. Korra's team enters the city sewers and General Iroh, the grandchild of the still-reigning Firelord Zuko and commander of a fleet of United Forces warships, answers Republic City's plea.

Tropes used in The Legend of Korra/Recap/B1/E10 Turning the Tides include:
  • Death From Above: The Equalists have planes capable of dropping bombs.
  • Freeze-Frame Bonus: For the preview, at least. Look carefully at Mako and Korra when he's about to take her bending away. Both are being held in place by bloodbending. Mako's oddly bent hand says more than words ever could.
  • Trailers Always Spoil: The trailer for the finale shows the Equalists most likely gained control of the city. They're using Air Temple Island as a staging ground, for starters.
