So, what cool move are you gonna teach me first? Rock-a-lanche? The Trembler? Oh, oh, maybe I can learn to make a whirlpool outta land...
Let's start with, "Move A Rock."

So, what cool move are you gonna teach me first? Rock-a-lanche? The Trembler? Oh, oh, maybe I can learn to make a whirlpool outta land...
Let's start with, "Move A Rock."
(aiming at a small prey animal) You're awfully cute, but unfortunately for you, you're made of meat.
(Zuko and Iroh are drinking tea together)
Lightning is a pure expression of firebending, without aggression. It is not fueled by rage or emotion, the way other firebending is. Some call lightning "the cold-blooded fire." It is precise and deadly, like Azula. To perform the technique requires peace of mind.
I see. That's why we're drinking tea. To calm the mind.
Oh yeah, good point. I mean, yes.
Zuko (yelling angrily toward the sky): You've always thrown everything you could at me! Well, I can take it, and now I can give it back! Come on! STRIKE ME! You've never held back before!
Great! I'm ready to try with real lightning!
[taken aback] What, are you crazy? Lightning is very dangerous.
I thought that was the point: you teaching me to protect myself from it!
Yeah, but I'm not going to shoot lightning at you!
Aang, this is my friend Foo-Foo Cuddly Poofs, Foo-Foo Cuddly Poofs, Aang.
So uncle, I've been thinking. It's only a matter of time before I run into Azula again. I'm going to need to know more advanced firebending if I want to stand a chance against her. I know what you're going to say: she's my sister and I should be trying to get along with her--
No, she's crazy and she needs to go down.
[Sokka is buried in the earth and is pleading to the spirits to let him out]
Okay, karma person or thing, whoever's in charge of this stuff... If I can just get out of this situation alive, I will give up meat and sarcasm. Okay? That's all I got. Pretty much my whole identity: Sokka the meat and sarcasm guy. But I'm willing to be Sokka, the veggies and straight talk fellow. Deal?
(sees Aang approaching)
Aang! Thank goodness! Have you got any meat?
(Aang has just agreed to earthbend Sokka out of the ground.)
Actually, you might wanna let me do that. You're a little still new to this...you might accidentally crush him.
Yeah, no crushing, please!
Gooood morning earth-bending student!
