What Happened To Suki While in Boiling Rock Prison? (Avatar the Last Airbender Explained)

in between books two and three there is a huge gap with suki's character arc the last we saw of suki before the boiling rock episode were herself and the other kiyoshi warriors being taken down by azula mei and tai li and a few months go by before we see her next so what happened to her during this time well we actually just got the answer to that in this video i'm going to go through what happened to suki during her time at the boiling rock because tsuki was the leader of the kyoshi warriors she was separated from the rest and given the ultimate punishment azula personally sent tsuki to the most fortified and ruthless prison the fire nation had to offer before shipping her off though azula tried to toy with suki first saying she was going to capture saka and take turns tormenting both him and her together then she told tsuki she would be completely alone in prison and she tried to scare her by listing everything that made the prison so deadly to its prisoners azula then dug deeper saying that she had failed everyone in her life especially her fellow kiyoshi warriors and she finished it off saying that she was going to destroy her friends and team avatar while she sat helpless in a jail cell on the way to the boiling rock her fellow inmates talked about the horror stories they'd heard about this prison but suki didn't lose hope thinking she could escape when she got there though and looked out the window her look of shock of how fortified the prison was made the prison guards laugh at her saying that now that she had seen it she had realized there was no escaping when put in her cell tsuki began to do the meditation fighting she had learned from her kyoshi warrior training she then found a dumpling weed growing in her cell something that had actually saved kiyoshi island from starving one season a few years back while tsuki was on the island and because she was so familiar with it she knew it was something that could grow even in the harshest conditions when tsuki got her first meal in prison she saw how disgusting and unnourishing the food was after seeing another prisoner say this very thing to a prison guard sugi went up to introduce herself the girl didn't bite it first but when tsuki said she could give her some good food which was the dumpling weeds the girl introduced herself as bayou the two then talked about how the food they were given wasn't enough to keep a healthy body going which was part of what made the prison so tough to be in the fire nation left the prisoners half starved this way they would not have enough energy to stir up any trouble this gives tsuki the idea to grow more dumpling weeds because if they plant enough they could feed the other prisoners thus giving them the strength to fight back against the prison guards and eventually escape bayou was not into the planet first saying that she did not care about the other prisoners but after tsuki gave an inspiring speech she agreed they eventually recruited the inmates that did the laundry and they dug a tunnel out of the laundry room that led to their garden after two weeks they had grown a huge amount of food however while looking at the garden one day one of the inmates that did the laundry came running through the tunnel telling suki and bayou that the warden was coming to do a surprise inspection tsuki and bayou made it back through the tunnel and hid just in time tsuki watched as the warden lectured han and the others and luckily their plan worked the warden did not catch them when the warden left suki thanked the others for risking their necks and they said it was the least they could do after suki had been feeding them they all then sat together and ate the food that they had grown and while eating they talked about how much more strength they gave them and this gave them hope that they could escape sometime soon we then get a very telling conversation between tsuki and bayou bayou mentions that she's realized that having friends gives you a real advantage but suki corrects her saying that it wasn't about advantages but building a community and standing together she makes sure that bayou understood it wasn't about using others to survive but coming together so they could escape and bayou said she understood one day suki handed some of the food that they had grown to an inmate but as he was eating a guard noticed it this led to the guard grabbing the prisoner but the other prisoner spoke up and had his back things then escalated when they threw the crappy prison food at the guard and tsugi got pumped that it was finally time to fight back she told bayou to come help her fight and no bayou said she was right behind suki she actually ran in the other direction away from the fight tsugi did suki things and took down a bunch of guards and came to the rescue of a number of prisoners but when more guards showed up they fired a warning shot then threatened them and this made suki and the others stand down they were punished by having to go into solitary and tsuki got a tiny little cell that was a quarter of the size of her old one and had no windows she then did her kyoshi warrior fighting meditation to calm herself down and she told herself that she would escape this place soon after spending a good amount of time in there the guards took her out and said that the warden wanted to see her when she got there he had the dumpling weeds on his desk and asuki about them but she played innocent however when the warden said that he had found her garden and laughed at her for thinking a few vegetables could change something sookie lost her temper and admitted to it saying that these vegetables could give them the chance to escape this prison the warden gave an evil smile as he asked did you know you were betrayed this line shook suki up but she said he was lying however when the warden said that one of her own had come to him and told him everything her heart sank and she believed him he then told suki that all she had built was gone and destroyed and he told her that she had no friends here she was completely alone tsuki was then sent to solitary again and on her way there she saw bayou chatting it up and laughing with some guards and tsuki now knew who the rat was after two weeks in solitary she was let out and she was on a mission to find bayou when she asked the others where she was they told her that bayou was not in the general population anymore as she had gotten a fancy room for herself as well as many new privileges and better food a little while later tsuki saw bayou walking on the path above and tsuki again did suki things climbing up to her sneaking through the door before it locked and slammed bayou to the ground when tsuki asked her why she strayed away from their plan bayou said it wasn't her plan it was suki's bayou told tsuki that she followed her at first because she thought she was smart but she was never really her friend she elaborated saying that after the fight in the cafeteria she did not want to deal with that heat so she went to the warden looking out for herself and herself alone and ratted suki and the others out this truly angered suki feeling very betrayed and her anger led to her lifting by you up and holding her over the edge of the rail and immediately bayou's confidence vanished telling suki she was sorry when tsuki realized what she was doing she dropped by you and walked away but as she left bayou called her a coward tsuki went back to her old cell and she tried to do the kyoshi warrior meditating but she lost faith and fell to the ground she began to cry and lost all hope but then something amazing happened tsuki was visited by avatar kiyoshi herself the late avatar told her that her friends loved her and that they had not abandoned her she told suki that she was not alone but when tsuki asked how she knew this kiyoshi just smiled at her and vanished this gave tsuki new hope and little did she know at that very moment saka and zuko were arriving and you guys know the rest she escaped with saka and zuko just a few days later tsuki was really tested while locked up she had hope when she first arrived but pretty much lost all of it when she thought she was alone however avatar kiyoshi the person that tsuki had dedicated her life to brought that hope back being locked up definitely made suki stronger and i think this was a great addition to the avatar timeline it helped grow and develop suki's character and for me it made me like tsuki so much more this expansion
