Even if his mom was terrible, the whole "You can take my mother!" was just scummy.

One interesting thing that crossed my mind during the episode was the realization of one reason why Katara wanted revenge so badly, and yet Sokka was more willing to forgive. Hopefully I'm not just stating the obvious, but it finally clicked with me when they showed the differences between Sokka and Katara's memories of what happened that day. Sokka was outside with his dad fighting the soldiers, and missed the whole encounter between his mom and the soldier. Meanwhile, it was Katara who saw the soldier's face, and her mom sitting in front of him helplessly, and it was her who wasn't able to reach her dad in time to save Kya (sp?). She was the one who felt like it could've been her fault that she wasn't able to save her mother, and she was the one who firsthand saw her mom's sacrifice to save her. Wait, wasn't Katara's name also Kya in the pilot episode?? Woaahhhh, just realized!

I loved the episodes! Azula showing signs of insanity, and her line about becoming an only child. Zuko's joke about chasing Aang around like old times made me and my friends laugh. And Sokka, just Sokka. I thought Katara forgiveness of Zuko at the end made sense. He had already proved himself multiple times to the gaang; the only reason Katara wouldn't accept him was her blind rage that had more to due with her past trust issues. She realized because of Aang's speech and her inability to take the raider's life that it wasn't fair for her to take out her pain on Zuko. As for Zuko agreeing with her wanting revenge, I personally think he was channeling his own emotions about his mother on to Katara and her situation.

Wow, this episode was ridiculously awesome!
I must say, Katara can definitely be named a master waterbender after her performance in this episode.

This episode completely reminded me of Princess Bride. Katara is officially frozen in my top three favorite characters. I kind of wish she did kill him, because that would have made the scene all even better.
I could have easily see her in the role of Inigo Montoya. And with the former leader saying, "I give you whatever you want."
Then Katara response while she killed him saying, "I want my mother back!"
That scene was awesome in the movie. Plus when she let him know there was a waterbender in the village and the guy asked who. She answered with waterbendering. "ME!"
Just because it's Nick, of course she wasn't going to kill him. Sadly, I wish she did. It would have made the episode even better.

I was also very excited that we got to see the face of Kya. I have waited a long time for that moment. She was very pretty.
And I'm glad that Zuko and Katara made up.

I really hated it when Katara said "Then you didn't lover her like I did." And Sokka goes "Katara." It made me sad! Poor Sokka!

Loved the episode - but like others have said... I completely agree with it being rushed. This should have been an hour episode.

I don't think it was rushed. The first time I watched it, I just thought they wouldn't fit everything in and was nervous it WOULD be rushed. When I rewatched it though, it was good. ^_^

Yeah, I too think that is was a little rushed. I wish the had done more with the guy who they went looking for. They could have possibly a little more obstacles to find this guy.

Congratulations, the first episode aired of season three without being leaked first!! Actually, The Awakening, The Painted Lady, and The Beach were not leaked first, but whatever.
