Azula quotes from Avatar: The Last Airbender

Zuko

You lied to me!

Azula

Like I haven't done that before.

Ty Lee

But I'm happy here, my aura has never been pinker!

Azula

(cocking an eyebrow) I'll take your word for it.

Azula

You still don't know who I am? You don't see the family resemblance? Let me give you a hint. (covers left eye with her hand, imitating Zuko) I must find the Avatar to restore my honor!

Aang

(stares with blank face)

Azula

It's okay. You can laugh. It's funny.

Azula

(to Aang) Do you really want to fight me?

Zuko

(to Azula) Yes, I really do.

Aang

Zuko!

Azula

I was wondering when you would show up, Zuzu.

Aang

"Zuzu"? (stifles a laugh)

Azula

Who are you? The Avatar's fangirls?

Ty Lee

...Oh! I get it! Good one Azula.

Azula

We have been presented with an extraordinary opportunity, girls.

Ty Lee

Mai finally gets to wear make-up that's not totally depressing?

Zuko

Uncle, I don't understand. What are you doing with the Avatar?

Aang

[faces him] Saving you, that's what.

Zuko

[makes angry noise and attempts to lunge at him. Iroh holds him back]

Iroh

It's time we talked. [to Aang, smiling] Go help your other friends. We'll catch up with you.

Aang

[bows to Iroh and rushes out with Katara]

Katara

[stares sadly over her shoulder at Zuko as she leaves]

Zuko

[not looking Iroh directly in the eye] Why, Uncle?

Iroh

[seriously] You're not the man you used to be, Zuko. You are stronger, and wiser, and freer than you have ever been. And now you've come to the crossroads of your destiny. It's time for you to choose. It's time for you to choose good.

Zuko

[eyes widen and makes a loud sound of surprise as the green crystals shoot up and imprison Iroh]

Azula

[comes over with two Dai Li Agents behind her] I expected this kind of treachery from Uncle. But Zuko, Prince Zuko. You're a lot of things, but you aren't a traitor, are you?

Zuko

[angrily, eyes narrowed] Release him immediately!

Azula

[slyly] It's not to late for you, Zuko. You could still redeem yourself.

Zuko

Why did you do it?

Azula

You're going to have to be a little more specific.

Zuko

Why did you tell Father that I was the one who killed the Avatar?

Azula

Can't this wait until morning?

Zuko

(firmly) It can't.

Azula

Fine. You seemed so worried about how father would treat you because you hadn't captured the Avatar. I figured, if I gave you the credit, you'd have nothing to worry about.

Zuko

But why?

Azula

Call it a generous gesture. I wanted to thank you for your help, and I was happy to share the glory.

Zuko

You're lying.

Azula

If you say so.

Zuko

You have another motive for doing this. I just haven't figure out what it is.

Azula

(stretching up her arms) Please, Zuko. What ulterior motive could I have? What could I possibly gain by letting you get all the glory for defeating the Avatar? Unless somehow, the Avatar was actually alive. All that glory would suddenly turn to shame and foolishness. But you said yourself that was impossible. Sleep well, Zuzu.

Azula

I hear you've been to see Uncle Fatso in the prison tower.

Zuko

That guard told you, didn't he?

Azula

No, you did. Just now.

Azula

That's a sharp outfit, Chan. Careful, you could puncture the hull of an empire-class Fire Nation battle ship, leaving thousands to drown at sea. [Points] Because... it's so sharp.

Ummm... Thaaanks.

Ty Lee

Thank goodness you're here, Azula. These boys won't leave me alone. I think they all just like me too much!

Azula

Oh come on, Ty Lee, you can't be that stupid.

Ty Lee

What do you mean?

Azula

You make it too easy for them, you're a tease. It's not like they actually care who you are.

Azula

Okay, okay, I'm sorry. It's just that I'm a little (pauses and whispers) jealous.

Ty Lee

Of me? But you're the smartest, prettiest girl in the whole world!

Azula

Well, you're right about those things, but every time I try to talk to boys, they act like I'm going to do something horrible to them...

Ty Lee

But you probably would do something horrible to them. Okay, look. If you want a boy to like you, just look at him, and smile a lot, and laugh at everything he says, even if it's not funny.

Azula

Well, that sounds really shallow and stupid... Let's try it!

Ty Lee

Right. [puts on a boyish voice] Hey there, sweet sugar-cakes. How ya likin' this party?

You're pretty.

Azula

(sweetly) Together, you and I will be (evilly) the strongest couple in the entire world! (creates two blue fireballs in her hands) WE WILL DOMINATE THE EARTH! (Chan stares at her like she's crazy)

Uh, I gotta go. (he nervously walks away, leaving Azula alone)

Zuko

I guess you wouldn't understand, would you Azula? Because you're just so perfect.

Azula

Well yes, I guess you're right. I don't have sob stories like all of you. I could sit here and complain how mom liked Zuko more then me, but I don't really care. My own mother thought I was a monster... [is silent for a moment] She was right, of course, but it still hurt.

Ty Lee

[to Zuko and Mai, who have been arguing] Calm down, you guys! This much negative energy is bad for your skin; you'll totally break out.

Zuko

Bad skin?! Normal teenagers worry about bad skin! I don't have that luxury! My father decided to teach me a permanent lesson - ON MY FACE!

Ty Lee

Sorry, Zuko, I--

Zuko

For so long now I thought if my dad accepted me, I'd be happy. I'm back home now, my dad talks to me, he even thinks I'm a hero! Everything should be perfect, right? I should be happy now, but I'm not. I'm angrier than ever and I don't know why!

Azula

There's a simple question you need to answer, then. Who are you angry at?

Zuko

No one! I'm just... angry.

Mai

Yeah, who are you angry at, Zuko?

Zuko

Everyone! I don't know!

Azula

Is it Dad?

Zuko

No, no.

Ty Lee

Your uncle?

Azula

Me?

Zuko

No! No, no, no!

Mai

Then who? Who are you angry at?

Azula

Answer the question, Zuko.

Ty Lee

Talk to us!

Mai

Come on, answer the question.

Azula

Come on, answer it.

Zuko

[makes their fire blaze] I'M ANGRY AT MYSELF!

Azula

In the end, he died a very old and successful man.

Zuko

But how did he die?

Azula

Didn't you pay any attention in school, Zuko? He died peacefully in his sleep; he was ancient.
