20	!!Chapter Five: Adventures and Misfortunes
21	* Mako telling Asami about his past.
22	--> '''Mako''': You don't get it at all, do you? Me and my brother, we've been orphaned for years, and there was nobody willing to look after us. We had to survive on our own, doing whatever we could to survive. Sure we can both bend, but no company wants to hire kids. The gangs aren't so picky; some of them can use kids with those talents. And not for anything good. But it was a choice: Work for the gangs or starve in the gutter. At least our gang gave us protection from my parent's killers. The police lost interest real quick. And I can't just walk away from it now. Not while my brother still needs me.

33	--> '''Zaheer''': Not this time. They can no longer take care of you. Something terrible happened to your home and we need to keep you safe. I'm sorry, but you cannot go back.
34	--> '''Korra''': (beginning to cry) But...but I want to.
35	--> '''Zaheer''': I know this is a difficult time, and this is a shock. But we cannot let you go back. You are too important. We will keep you safe until it is the right time. Korra?
36	--> '''Korra''': (shaking) Uh-huh?

58	* P'Li's DarkAndTroubledPast.
59	* When Bolin is looking for the best spot to put the photograph of his and Mako's parents.

61	--> '''Mako''': Near the kitchen. (quietly) They both loved cooking.
62
63	!!Chapter Twelve: City of Fireworks

74	* Asami's ItsAllMyFault moment after Korra is taken away by the Red Lotus.
75	--> '''Mako''': Asami? Do you know something? Did Korra say something about this to you?
76	--> '''Asami''': No, but... (sighs) I never wanted to be right. If I was right, then I never told anyone, and then... all this would be my fault. (bitterly smiles) So, I guess it really is my fault in the end. I could have stopped it years ago.

94	!!Chapter Nineteen: Freedom
95	* While Korra's reunion with her parents was heartwarming, there is a strong sense of awkwardness along with how they all blame themselves for what happened. Senna even sadly admits they can never get the time they lost back.
