Long Feng then strides in, all convinced that he can get the Dai Lee to arrest Azula. Except the coup’s not so much “upcoming” as “literally happening right now.” Toph takes care of business in the ensuing fight scene with Ozai’s Angels, as is her wont, but when Azula gets her pocket-sized lighting bolt to the Earth King’s throat, they have to surrender. While Iroh and Aang are on prisoner rescue duty, Sokka and Toph are hoofing it to the Earth King to tell him about Azula’s upcoming coup. And ohhh, remembering that water thing is gonna hurt me later. She’s even about to use her super-secret healing water to try and get rid of the scar on his face-the visible manifestation of the hold the Fire Nation has over him-when Aang and Iroh bust in to rescue them. Katara and Zuko end up bonding hardcore over all the ways in which the Fire Nation has dicked them both over. All except Toph, who didn’t need any convincing, because she just knew Iroh as the guy who gave her good advice back in “The Chase.” While there, they get a visit from Iroh, who’s just decided “Hey, I’m gonna go to the Avatar and suggest that we work together to rescue Katara and Zuko.” And, because he’s Uncle Iroh, they are convinced as to the wisdom of this plan pretty quickly. The Earth King tells them that Katara must be in their old house, which of course she isn’t. Speaking of the coup: Aang, Toph, and Sokka don’t know yet that the visiting “Kyoshi Warriors” are actually Ozai’s Angels. So the guards immobilize Zuko and take him away, because Azula’s too fucking smart to let herself get distracted by drama when she has a coup that needs pulling off. Cue Iroh’s literal facepalm at his nephew’s poor decision-making skills (the first of many times they will pop up this episode):Īzula: Wait, so you want to challenge me to a duel then? But Zuko refuses to follow, saying that he’d rather confront Azula once and for all than keep running from her. The fact that he can literally breathe fire makes his escape from Azula pretty easy.
We start with Iroh revealing why he’s called “The Dragon of the West,” and HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT.
