At his induction as Beifong's replacement, Chief Saikhan, vows to support Tarrlok's task force. Korra clashes with Tarrlok, refusing to re-join his "vanity project". As she expresses frustration with her inability to airbend, Tenzin asks her to try to obtain help from her past lives by meditating on brief visions of Aang she had during her stay in Republic City. Asami, Mako, Bolin, and Korra patrol the city and succeed in capturing escaping Equalists, to Tarrlok's disapproval. Soon after Tarrlok has a law passed that places all non-benders under a curfew, Korra tries to free unarmed civilians captured by police for protesting against having their power cut, Tarrlok arrests her friends to stop her. Confronting him in his office, Korra refuses to comply with his wishes to secure her friends' release, and after she compares him to Amon, Tarrlok attacks her. As she is about to win the fight after wrecking much of City Hall, he subdues her by revealing he's a bloodbender, and leaves the city with the captive Avatar.
