Jake is also a a full Na’vi tribesman now, having married Neytiri (Zoe Saldana) and having some half breed rug rats. When the earthlings invade from space, Jake and his brood escape to the water people tribe, the Metkayinas, which includes Ronal (Kate Winslet). As Jake and company learn to assimilate with the water folk, Col. Quaritch is bearing down on them.
