Unexpected Encounters in Elemental's Canals
Wade
Well, I was in the canals checking the doors for leaks, when I found some water that shouldn't have been there. There was this whoosh of water. And I got sucked into a filtering system. But then I heard this explosion. That's how I ended up at your place.
Ember
Oh, flame! My temper caused this.

A Moment of Connection and Departure
Wade
Let's… Let's start small. I'm so lucky.
Bernie
I'm so lucky I have you.
Ember
I have to go.
[quickly hurries off]
Wade
Wait, what? Where are you going?
[runs after her to the stairs of Mineral Lake station]
Ember
Back to my life at the shop, where I belong. I take over tomorrow.
Wade
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold up. You don't want that. You said so yourself.
Ember
It doesn't matter what I want.
Wade
Of course, it does! Listen, listen. You got an opportunity to do something you want with your life.
Ember
Want"? Yeah, that may work in your rich kid, "follow your heart" family, but getting to do what you want is a luxury and not for people like me.
Wade
Why not? Just tell your father how you feel. This is too important. Maybe he'll agree.
Ember
Yeah.
[chuckles sarcastically]
Wade
Funny. And this whole time, I thought you were so strong. But it turns out, you're just afraid.
Ember
Don't you DARE judge me! You don't know what it's like to have parents who gave up everything for you. I'm fire, Wade! I can't be anything more than that! It's what I am, and my family is! It's our way of life. I cannot throw all that away just for YOU!
[turns to him, blazing purple in sharped anger]
Wade
I don't understand.
[hurt]
Ember
And that alone is a reason this could never work. It's over, Wade.
[turns away and boards the train]

Struggle Between Sacrifice and Personal Dreams
Ember Lumen
You know what's crazy? Even when I was a kid, I would pray to the blue flame to be good enough to fill my father's shoes someday because this place is his dream. But I never once asked what I wanted to do. I think that's because deep down, I knew it didn't matter. Because the only way to repay a sacrifice so big is by sacrificing your life too.

[sobs]
Wade
Hey, no. You're doing your best.
Ember
I'm a mess.
[sniffles, then sighs]
Wade
Nah. I think you're even more beautiful.
Ember
Maybe you're right when you said my temper is me trying to tell me something.
