| - In 167 AG, when Toza was a competitor in pro-bending, he came to the Triple Threat Triad headquarters to collect a bribe from Shady Shin, agreeing in return to throw that evening's match. Mako and Bolin were present at this exchange, and expressed differing opinions about the morality and justification of this covert act. Afterward, Shady Shin warned the siblings that if they could not collect enough bets to compensate for the ten thousand yuan bribe given to Toza, he would abandon them on the streets. Years later, Bolin agreed to help Shady Shin with some security work for the Triple Threats after being told he would receive compensation. However, when the two arrived at the headquarters, the group of mobsters was ambushed by a band of Equalists, who took the five present benders captive. At that moment, Mako and Korra arrived at the headquarters in search of Bolin. While Mako sneaked up to the front door, cautiously peeking through one of the windows in the door, Korra forsook all discretion and walked right up to the door before brutally kicking it down. They discovered that the building was abandoned, with all the furniture having been pushed over. As Mako called for his brother, they heard the roar of an engine. Exiting the building through the back door, they were just in time to witness a group of Equalists take off with Bolin and several triad members. Six months after the Anti-bending Revolution, Mako and Asami ventured to the headquarters, seeking the triad's help in catching those who had been sabotaging Future Industries' shipment of mecha tanks to the Southern Water Tribe. They struck a deal with the triad's new leader, Viper, wherein Mako promised him that Korra would restore Shady Shin's waterbending abilities. Asami also promised a new line of vehicles from Future Industries in the group's deal.
