Quotes 

• [last lines] 

  Zuko : You were right about what Katara needed. Violence wasn't the answer.

  Aang : It never is.

  Zuko : Then I have a question for you. What are you gonna do when you face my father?

• [Zuko and Suki bump into each other while both going to Sokka's tent] 

  Suki : Oops. Wrong tent.

  Zuko : Sorry, do you need to talk to Sokka, too?

  Suki : Nope, not me.

  [Suki walks away and Zuko enters Sokka's tent] 

  Sokka : [Seductively]  Well, hello...

  [turns and realizes it's Zuko] 

  Sokka : ...Uh, Zuko. Yes, why would I be expecting anyone different?

• Aang : Wow, camping. It really seems like old times again, doesn't it?

  Zuko : If you really want it to feel like old times, I could uh... chase you around a while and try to capture you.

• Katara : Now that I know he's out there, now that I know we could find him, I feel like I have no choice.

  Katara : Katara, you do have a choice, forgiveness.

  Zuko : That's the same as doing nothing.

  Aang : [Shakes head]  No, it's not. It's easy to do nothing... but it's hard to forgive.

• Katara : We're going to find the man who took my mother from me.

  Zuko : Sokka told me the story of what happened. I know who did it, and I know how to find him.

  Aang : Um, and what exactly do you think this will accomplish?

  Katara : [scoffs]  I knew you wouldn't understand.

  Aang : Wait, stop! I *do* understand! You're feeling unbelievable pain and rage. How do you think I felt about the sandbenders when they stole Appa? How do you think I felt about the Fire Nation when I found out what happened to my people?

• [first lines] 

  [seeing part of the ceiling falling towards Katara] 

  Zuko : Watch out!

  [Zuko dives and pushes her clear] 

  Katara : What are you doing?

  Zuko : Keeping the rocks from crushing you.

  Katara : Okay, I'm not crushed. You can get off me now.

  [Katara walks away] 

  Zuko : I'll take that as a "thank you."

• Zuko : What are you doing here?

  Azula : You mean it's not obvious yet? I'm about to celebrate becoming an only child!

• Aang : The monks used to say that revenge is like a two-headed rat viper. While you watch your enemy go down, you're being poisoned yourself.

  Zuko : That's cute, but this isn't Air Temple Pre-School. It's the real world.

• [as Katara and Zuko prepare to leave] 

  Katara : Don't try to stop us.

  Aang : I wasn't planning to. This is a journey you need to take. You need to face this man. But when you do, please don't choose revenge. Let your anger out, and then let it go. Forgive him.

  Zuko : Okay, we'll be sure to do that, Guru Goody-Goody.

• Aang : What are you doing?

  Zuko : Go ahead, I'll hold them off. I think this is a family visit.

  Aang : Zuko, no!

• Katara : What do you want?

  Zuko : I know who killed your mother, and I'm going to help you find him.

• Zuko : This isn't fair. Everyone else seems to trust me now. What is it with you?

  Katara : Oh, everyone trusts you now? I was the first person to trust you! Remember? Back in Ba Sing Se. And you turned around and betrayed me, betrayed all of us.

  Zuko : What can I do to make it up to you?

  Katara : You really wanna know? Hmm. Maybe you could reconquer Ba Sing Se in the name of the Earth King. Or, I know! You could bring my mother back!
