Meanwhile, Prince Zuko and his uncle Iroh are also on the search for the Avatar. Zuko challenges a skilled earthbender to a fight and loses, causing him to reflect on his purpose and his destiny.
As Aang and his friends try to persuade Toph's parents to let her join them on their journey, they discover that Toph has secretly been participating in the earthbending tournament under the alias "The Blind Bandit." Despite her parents' disapproval, Toph agrees to teach Aang earthbending and joins them on their journey, becoming the newest member of Team Avatar.
However, trouble ensues when Toph's past catches up with her and she is kidnapped by a group of bandits who want to use her earthbending skills to aid them in their criminal activities. Team Avatar must rescue Toph and defeat the bandits in an intense battle. In the end, Toph's parents see the error of their ways and allow Toph to continue her journey with Aang and his friends.
