This episode is rocking on the top of my Avatar faves, along with Siege of the North! Katara was seriously hardcore in here, all business and ready to go and avenge her mother. The comparisons to Jet and Hama were nicely done, and I felt sorry for Aang after the confrontation with Zuko and Katara. Especially when she pulled the 'you don't know what I've been through' card with the kid who's had his entire people massacred, the salvation of the world placed on his shoulders, and has had people trying to kill him left and right. Remember all those angry bursts into the Avatar State, Katara? And how you told him once that his loved ones didn't like seeing him in all that rage and pain? Yes. Irony.

Zuko walking in on Sokka getting ready to seduce Suki. (And yes, probably have sex with her. Love tent!) This? This made me die laughing a lot. I saw the preview, but this was great. And Zuko's melting face followed by the complete and utter deadpan poker face was brilliant. (Something bothered me about the art in that scene, though. And I think at some point Zuko got a giraffe neck.)

And yes, Azula is hitting the deep end! I await Crazula with much anticipation. (And I loved it when her hair went loose at the end. I like her with her hair down for some reason.)
