Zuko and Jet fighting just make me laugh every time because Zuko has worked in the service industry for 2 days and has a legitimate reason to fight someone

Fun fact about making tea: The secret to a good cup of tea is often in the temperature of water that you use. For a firebender, heating a pot of water wouldn’t be difficult- a few seconds of rage and you’d have it at a rolling boil- but a rolling boil would ruin the tea. Jasmine, green and white tea tends to need between 160-180* F (71-82*C)- go any higher than that, and you’ll scald the leaves and wind up with bitter tea. Let it steep for too long, and it’ll scald anyway. So you can’t just boil the hell out of it and walk away; to be really good, a cup of tea needs a lower temperature and a softer flame. It needs patience and attention. And that’s where Uncle Iroh excels. Still don't get the connection? Zuko never prepared a good cup of tea before because he was too impatient to heat it properly and Iroh started working on that connection with Zuko right then and there. Like literally after this the main plotpoint between these two is Iroh teaching Zuko how to be more patient/kind/open-minded while also teaching him how to properly work in the tea shop Turns out those two were actually not just random meshing plotpoints but were a direct correlation.

For Jasmine tea, I wonder how that applies to using flowers as well as the leaves? The best Jasmine tea that I ever had was when I was living in Chengdu, China; probably the best tea that I've ever had in my life. I have to try to make it myself sometime.

Zuko worked in the service industry for barely a day and he’s ready to throw down with rude customers. Never say this show is too childish for adults.

Worth it to point out that despite the humble position they find themselves in, uncle Iroh is thriving. It’s a simple life, but Iroh was able to get passports, jobs, and even a home by just making the best of where he’s at. Meanwhile, zuko wanting more and better constantly comes up short, and it fuels his discontent. Even jet, seeking nothing but aggravation, seems to be only fixated on Zuko and Iroh. There’s nothing wrong with living simply.

This is where the show elevated to a whole different level (even though it already had a few times before this). This entire show builds until the final episode. Rare magic seen nowadays

10:40 that reaction is priceless: the exact moment she wants to punch him in the face 10:47 The most terrifying thing about Long Feng is that he basically controls the entire city, the biggest one in Earth kingdom, so whatever happens in it...he only needs to send the Dai Li to "fix it"

I really appreciate the commentary you guys have. I'm glad that Arianna touched on the class divide, and the fact that there's literally an inner and outer wall separating them. It's what really elevates this show from being just a regular kids show. That's a pretty heavy topic for the show to bring up and make so explicit.

In between the Outer Wall and the Inner Wall is the Agrarian Zone, land mostly used for farming

@@illuminate8321 Except Jett and Zuko aren't even close to being THE ONLY two people who have had shitty pasts. Second Jett is NOWHERE NEAR as traumatized as Zuko. Jett had a normal loving family. Zuko was hated by his own father and constantly mentally abused and broken down by his sister AND father at every opportunity. The fact that you'd actually put them in the same boat, let alone compare them is just sad. Also Jett is EXACTLY like that spoiled ass kid from Star Wars: Rebels. That nephew of the Admiral who believed his team of children could outsmart Thrawn. The one that thought small rinky dinky as cruisers were Star Destroyers. Jett had an overinflated ego, plain and simple. Yes his parents were killed by Fire Benders, but so was Katara's mother and oh I don't know EVERY AIR BENDER. But Aang isn't a self absorbed egotistical asshole. And neither is Katara. Also Jett doesn't KNOW for a fact if there are Fire Benders "undercover" as you said. He just doesn't CARE. It's Fire Nation, so they're responsible by THAT logic alone. It didn't matter that it was a civilian settlement, Jett didn't care. Even Sokka didn't think Jett was thinking straight. Even tried to call him out on it but Jett ignored him and invented a story just to keep his boys in line.

Don’t be too critical of Joo Dee. There’s a reason behind her behavior 😢 . And I love her regardless 🥰

The next episode is justly remembered as one of the most memorable. I'm sad I have to wait until next week!

The nosey neighbor is named Pong. In an earlier draft of the script, there was another neighbor named "Ping". The writers thought it was funny to have two neighbors named Ping and Pong. Apparently, it wasn't funny enough to stay in the script.

The Royal Palace design was inspired by the Forbidden City in China.

Yeah, It's a "trend" I guess, when displaying ring-style walled in cities that the Cities are actually scores of KM's apart from each other. Theoretically between the outer and inner wall there could be as much as 50 Miles in length. It allows for vast farm lands and even huge forest ranges within a City. I mean just look at the schematic for Paradis Island in Attack on Titan. It could take as much as a few days to walk the entire perimeter of the outer-most wall.

God I LOVE this episode. It's one of my favorites of the series. All of the Ba Sing Se episodes in general rank high amongst my favorites, but this one in particular is extra good IMO. Great reaction!

I'm so excited! This is when the show really elevates itself to another level.

I love horror movies but after watching Smile I was traumatized. I had a few people or family in my life who would smile at me a lot, while making eye contact, and I would have to tell them to stop because it would give me an anxiety attack. I had literal nightmares about my family just staring at me in the kitchen at me like that... *shudder*

There’s no tooth fairy, there’s no easter bunny, and there’s no war in Ba Sing Se

I feel bad for jet as he is actually in the right, yes his methods are extreme but they have a ex military general and the prince that is very volatile still at this point so they do indeed have some dangerous ppl with in there walls , but as we have followed zuko and u Do stand him we do look over all the horrible things he still has conflicted on to others . So it’s ashame when ppl want jet to loose to zuko as he really did want to change but his trauma just got ahead of him again……. Just like katara

Let's GOOOOOO

The war is an olen secret in ba sing se, everyone knows of it, but no one can acknowledge it, its double think where you know one thing but act as if it's not true.

Just an idea, but the walls of ba sing se can be compared to housing districts. Instead of walls, the federal, state, or local gov can block off poor people by making it almost impossible for them to ever financially afford to get out. Instead of cultural police brainwashing people, we have schools, phones. Then they add in drugs and other things that are easily addictive and almost all of the lower class never make it out of poverty and the middle class to true financial freedom. Or perhaps I’m just looking for an excuse as to why I don’t save more money. We may never know.

*what* is it giving hunger games, though?

You can separate ATLA two parts as Before Ba Sing Se and After Ba Sing se. From now on show gets bigger and bigger every episode. I wish to see your journey from now on.
