The Legend of Korra, Book One: Air

Tenzin:
Tarrlok, I don't know what you did to get Chief Saikhan in your pocket, but I highly doubt it was legal.

Tarrlok:
Oh, Tenzin, always the conspiracy theorist. Did you ever consider Saikhan simply recognizes my talents and wants what is best for this city? [Tenzin scoffs] Well, Avatar Korra. Long time no see. Now that your little Pro-Bending distractions are over, I look forward to your return to my taskforce.

Korra:
Forget it. There's no way I'm rejoining your vanity project.

Tarrlok:
That is unfortunate to hear, but I'm sure you'll come to your senses, as you have in the past.

Korra:
Don't hold your breath, bub. You know, Tenzin's been right about you all along. You play me, you play Beifong, and now you're playing the new Chief, too. Well, I've got news for you: You need me, but I don't need you. I'm the Avatar.

Tarrlok:
You're not, in fact, the Avatar. You are merely a half-baked Avatar in training. Which reminds me: how is your Airbending going? Made any significant progress with that? [Korra remains silent] I didn't think so. If you will not be part of my task force, then you have best stay out of my way.
