"I've always known that I would have to face the Firelord, but now I know I need to do it alone." |
The first episode of the third season, 'The Awakening' deals with Aang's return after his lightning-induced coma from the previous season's finale. He has to deal with letting the Fire Nation win another battle, and disappearing from the world again. Emotions run high for other members of the cast; Katara deals with her abandonment issues, both in regards to Aang and her father, and Zuko returns to the Fire Nation, only to discover that it's not quite what he expected it to be.
Tropes:[]
- Asleep for Days: Aang was unconscious for long enough for his hair to grow out.
- But for Me It Was Tuesday: After finding out that Azula gave him the credit for killing the Avatar, Zuko barges into her room, demanding, "Why'd you do it?" Azula's response? "You're going to have to be a little more specific."
- Calling the Old Man Out: Katara to Hakoda about his decision to leave her and Sokka to fight in the war.
- This is an interesting one as she fully admits that she knows that he had to leave and didn't do anything wrong but still feels angry and hurt by it.
- Evil Is Sexy: Well hello there, Firelord Ozai...
- Relationship Upgrade/Victorious Childhood Friend: Zuko and Mai
