Tenzin tells her that they were the ones defacing centuries-old airbender gates, and that he could not let them get away with it.

The police chief says she is not surprised to see the two vandals back at the station, but is surprised to see Tenzin there, rhetorically asking if airbenders are now getting into street brawls.
