Fire elements Bernie and Cinder Lumen immigrate to Element City, where they face xenophobia from other elements and struggle to find a home. They have a daughter, Ember, and eventually establish a convenience store called the Fireplace, setting up a Blue Flame that represents their heritage and traditions and attracting many fire element patrons over time. Ember dreams of taking over the business once Bernie retires but must first control her fiery temper. When Bernie allows Ember to run the shop on her own, she becomes overwhelmed by the customers and rushes to the basement. Her fiery outburst breaks a water pipe, flooding the basement and summoning Wade Ripple, a water element health inspector. Wade hesitantly notes the faulty plumbing and leaves for City Hall to report the violation to his air element employer, Gale Cumulus, who will promptly shut down the Fireplace. Ember pursues Wade but is too late.
