Katara quotes from Avatar: The Last Airbender

Thank you for coming, Mr. and Mrs...

Sokka

Fire. Wang Fire. This is my wife Sapphire.

Katara

Sapphire Fire, nice to meet you.

Mr. and Mrs.... Fire, your son has been enrolled here for two days, and he's already causing problems. He's argued with his history teacher, disrupted music class, and roughed up my star pupil.

Katara

(in shock) My goodness, that doesn't sound like our Kuzon.

That's what would any mother could say, Ma'am, nonetheless you're forewarned. If he acts up one more, I'll have him sent to reform school [standing up for emphasis]! By which I mean the coal mines. Are we clear?

Sokka

Don't you worry, Mr. Headmaster! I'll straighten the boy up with something fierce. (in a fierce tone) YOUNG MAN, AS SOON AS WE GET HOME, YOU'RE GONNA GET THE PUNISHMENT OF A LIFETIME!

That's what I like to hear.

Katara

We're safe now Sokka, you can take off the moustache.

Sokka

Oh, no I can't. It's permantently glued to my skin.

Katara

(looks away nervously) Oh, I don't know, Aang, these shoes aren't really right for dancing, and I'm not sure I know how to--

Aang

Take my hand.

Katara

(grinning) Okay.

Katara

Aang, everyone's watching.

Aang

Don't worry about them. (grins) It's just you and me right now.

You know, you're (Katara) not so bad for a Waterbender.

Sokka

Yeah, you wouldn't mind keeping that a secret, would you?

No problem. Keeping my mouth shut is a speciality. But my brother, Xu on the other hand, oh, he's a blabbermouth! (Sokka slaps himself in the head)

Katara

So, Doc, you ready to clean this river?

No, ma'am. I'm gonna get my other brother, Bushi. He loves cleaning rivers! (takes off his first hat and reveals another hat beneath) All right, I'm Bushi! Let's get to some river cleaning!

Katara

(mysterious voice): Well, hello, Avatar. I wish I could talk, but I am very busy.

Aang

Yeah, me too; I hate that. (he looks at the Painted Lady, Katara tries to hide her face with her hat) You know, you're real pretty for a spirit. I don't get to meet many spirits. But the ones I do meet? Not very attractive. (Katara chuckles nervously)

Katara

Thank you, but-

Aang

You seem familiar. (he looks at the Painted Lady again, but Katara still hides her face with her hat)

Katara

A lot of people say that.

Aang

No. You really seem familiar.

Katara

Look, I really should get going. (Aang Airbends her hat off, Katara grabs it, and turns away)

Aang

Katara?

Katara

I wasn't at first. But since that's who everybody thought I was, I guess I kinda became her. (she drops her hat)

It's hot today.

Aang

How hot is it?

I dunno, really hot?

Katara

It's so hot, it's so hot! Th-That Momo's shedding like Appa! Huh huh? (waits for a reply or laugh)

Aang

I guess the jokes don´t run in the family.

Katara

Oh, everybody's a critic!

You noodlebrains don't have a clue what you're doing. I miss Sokka.

Katara

Ooh! I got one! If you miss him so much, why don't you marry him?! (Katara grins, Toph turns over)

Aang

(is silent, then blows away a nearby bug with Airbending)

Sokka's coming! (sits up excitedly then tries to look casual about it)

Sokka

Hey guys. How ya doin? (they all hug him)

Aang

Sokka!

You're back!

Katara

We missed you so much.

Aang

Say something funny!

Sokka

Funny how? (Aang and Katara start laughing) What's their deal?

(turns away trying to seem casual) I don't know. They missed you or something... (blushes) I didn't care.

Sokka

Thanks. That warms my heart.

(after their duel) Excellent work, Sokka. I think I'm a little old to be fighting the Avatar.

Aang

(shocked) How did you know?

Oh, I've been around a while. You pick things up. Of course I knew from the beginning that Sokka was Water Tribe... You might want to think of a better Fire Nation cover name. Try Lee. There's a million Lees.

Katara

But why would you agree to train someone from the Water Tribe?

The way of the sword doesn't belong to any one nation. Knowledge of the arts belongs to us all.

Katara

Do they have bathrooms in the spirit world?

Sokka

As a matter of fact, they do not.

Katara

You mean after all Roku and Sozin went through together, even after Roku showed him mercy, Sozin betrayed him like that?

It's like these people are born bad.

Aang

No, that's wrong. I don't think that was the point of what Roku showed me at all.

Sokka

Then what was the point?

Aang

Roku was just as much Fire Nation as Sozin was, right? If anything, their story proves anyone is capable of great good and great evil. Everyone, even the Fire Lord and the Fire Nation, have to be treated like they're worth giving a chance. And I think it was about friendships too.

Do you really think friendships can last more than one lifetime?

Aang

[Aang takes Toph's hand] I don't see why not.[Katara takes Toph's other]

Sokka

Well, scientifically speaking there's no way to prove that-

Katara

OH SOKKA JUST HOLD HANDS.

Katara

This isn't something we should make a habit of doing.

Why? Because it's fun? And you hate fun?

Katara

I don't hate fun. (puts Momo on her head) See? Fun!

Sokka

Toph, when I was in town I found something you're not going to like (unfurls a wanted poster)

Well it sounds like a sheet of paper. But I guess you're referring to what's on the sheet of paper.

Sokka

It's a wanted poster, of you! They've nicknamed you "The Runaway"

A wanted poster! That's so great! "The Runaway"! I love my new nickname! Is there a picture of me? Does it look good?

Sokka

(looks at the poster) Well yeah, actually, it does look pretty good.

Katara

Where have you two been? Off scamming again?

Yes, we were.

Katara

Oh really? And you don't think this is dangerous at all?

No, I don't.

Katara

Well then, what's this? (brandishes the same wanted poster)

(seriously irritated) I don't know! I mean, seriously, what's with you people?! I'm blind!

Katara

We've already got some third eyed freak after us.

Sokka

Speaking of that third eyed freak, I think I've come up with a name for him. What do you guys think of (dramatic pause) Sparky Sparky Boom Man! (Everyone just stares) Just think about.

Aang

Sokka! Watch out! It's Sparky Sparky Boom Man!

Sokka

You know, I'm starting to think that name doesn't quite fit!
