I simply hated this episode. Though the proposal of anchoring the episode´s story in the feelings and history of the antagonists is totally fine, the whole "beach thing" just not fit to the vibe. The clear americanization of "going to a beach party" is just unlikely to Avatar's universe, not to mention the .romanticization of Zuko and Zula's emotional questions. Despite the fire pit scene was unreasonable nice, the episode as a whole is for sure one of the worst.
