Korra opens the door to Bolin's apartment as quietly as she can. She's surprised to see her friend waiting up for her.

He tosses a manila envelope at her. "Way to leave me hanging, Korra. It's not like I care about your safety or anything. I mean I only stayed up for two days watching over you after you were hit by a truck and knocked out by a corporate bodyguard. It was nothing. I do it all the time."

She lowers her eyes. "Sorry."

Bolin shakes his head as he sits up in bed. "What the heck happened back there?" Korra looks at the money in the envelope then tosses it back at him.

"Put that in a safe place." She sighs then begins taking off her clothes. "I saw Asami and Mako."

His eyes widen. "WOW! Seriously!"

She nods. "Yeah they were in the box seats above the ring."

"So if you saw her why'd you leave?" He asks.

Korra starts to put her clothes away. "Asami left before the announcer came back into the ring. She left because I scared her. I needed to explain what happened."

Bolin shakes his head knowingly. "Geez Korra, did it occur to you that she might have left because you tried to grab her at her office four days ago? What were you thinking?"

Korra gets into bed then stares up at the bunk above her. "I need her to remember me Bolin or…at least be willing to get to know me again."

"She'll remember you alright. She'll remember to get a restraining order against you for stalking her." Bolin says lying back in his bed. "This isn't laying low Korra. You could get us both in a lot of trouble if she sees you again. Her bodyguard said you need to stay at least 100 ft away from her remember."

Korra rolls her eyes. "I know that alright. But it's not like I can control where she's gonna be 24/7."

"Yeah, but you knew she was gonna be at the fight tonight and you went anyway." He retorts.

"She's pregnant with my child Bolin." Korra turns over in bed and stares at the wall. "I can't ignore that. One way or another I gotta find a way to get close to her before she starts showing."

Bolin sighs heavily. "Korra…"

"I know you don't believe me okay. I get it. It's not normal in my world either, but it still happened. And if I don't find a way to convince Asami that I'm telling the truth, things are gonna get bad." Korra says closing her eyes.

Bolin suddenly remembers what happened after Korra left the club. "Look I'm not saying I'm completely on board with what you're doing but… I think I met someone tonight who might be able to help you with her."

"Huh? Who?"

Bolin takes a hesitant breath. "This girl named Azula stopped me outside the club and wanted to…"

Korra's eyes widen. She quickly turns over. "Seriously, Azula!? When? What did she say?" Korra hadn't even considered the fire nation princess among the list of people to look for.
