Korra suspects someone hired the Triple Threats to attack the Airbenders. The Spirit World reflects the growing conflict, becoming unwelcoming to humans.
Political Intrigue and New Triad Leaders
General Iroh and the United Forces arrive to lockdown the spirit portal under President Reiko's orders.

Asami is kidnapped by the Creeping Crystals, and her office is ransacked. Kora searches for Asami while Chief Beifong reports an attack on the police depot. Tokuga forces Asami to build a gas dispersion pump to unleash poisonous gas on Republic City, threatening to kill Kim if she refuses.
Rescue Mission and Resolution
Team Avatar enlists the help of the Creeping Crystals to take down Tokuga and rescue Asami. Kora, Asami, Mako, and Bolin follow the airship into the Spirit World, finding Asami and Kim, but Tokuga is missing.
