    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Aang chooses Momo as the name for his pet lemur after it steals a peach from Sokka. This is appropriate as momo is the Japanese word for "peach."
    • Goofs
      When in the sealed Air Temple room, Aang looks at the statues of the former Avatars, specifically at the statue of Roku. The statue next to Roku should be Kyoshi, a female Earth Bender, but a male with a sword is shown as the previous Avatar to Roku.
    • Quotes

      Katara: Aang, I know you're upset, and I know how hard it is to lose the people you love. I went through the same thing when I lost my Mom. Monk Gyatso and the other Airbenders may be gone, but you still have a family. Sokka and I, we're your family now.

      Sokka: Katara and I aren't going to let anything happen to you. Promise.

    Fire Politics & an Empty Temple

    This was a fantastic episode- they manage to pack in a lot of story and background without sacrificing great character moments.

    We learn more about the politics of the Fire Nation. That the prince is in exile (I wonder why) and is trying to find the Avatar to redeem himself. The moment between him and the dirty captain is great as it shows that he has a sense of honour and isn't just an evil one dimensional villain.

    I love that the Fire uncle is such a Loveable character And yet he is ostensibly fighting for the bad guys. Can't wait to see his arc.

    Frolicking around the empty air temple was fun, as well as Aang's flashbacks. There were many cute and hilarious moments here.

    This show is really impressing me! I found myself getting emotional during Aang's Avatar spirit transformation.

    A lovely pet lemur doesn't hurt either.
