Katara blocks the attack and admonishes him for attacking little children. One of the crew members, annoyed this is the third that week children have trespassed, waterbends at them. Katara concedes the point, telling them she and Sokka will make sure the children leave. One of the playing children had use the no-trespassing sign to build a snowman. Sokka catches up to the child, and members of the construction crew approach them, telling they are trespassing. Sokka introduces himself as a fellow southerner. Sokka asks a child playing nearby what the construction is, but the child refuses to talk to him, saying his mother told him not to speak with strangers. The two notice the construction project at place and wonder what it is. Upon seeing three grown men wanting to hurt a group of children, Katara rapidly prepares to defend them. The two penguin sled down the hill, and Sokka hits a wooden beam. Sokka agrees but mistakenly remembers Katara being the one suspicious of Aang being a Fire Nation spy at the time. Katara explains it reminds her of the day they met Aang. She asks Sokka if it reminds him of anything, but Sokka draws a blank. Katara notices penguin sledders at the top of a hill. Katara corrects him, pointing out she only said that once. The two disembark from the ship, Katara noting nothing looks familiar, and Sokka following that their map says, pointing out her past admission no one reads a map like him. Katara sleepily asks Sokka if it is him, and when he asks if she is ok, Katara tells him she had a dream that was happy and sad, though mostly happy. Katara is wakes up on a ship, Sokka asking her to wake up, telling her they have arrived. Kya keeps asking her to wake up, and Katara notices Kya does not sound like herself.

She asks Katara if it is not beautiful, and Katara agrees. Kya calls her to see the village of Wolf Cove with the sun out, after the snow has stopped. Katara dreams of being a small child, being woken up by her mother. Katara is shocked to find that her beloved village has become a bustling city, with none other than their father, Hakoda, in charge! A Northerner named Malina seems to be behind this change, pushing the North and South to be more unified.

When Aang leaves to aid Zuko with the Kemurikage, Katara and Sokka return to the Southern Water Tribe by themselves.
