One, two, three, bend!
What's that supposed to be, Sokka?
This is boomerang! Shoo-shoo!
Ow! My arrow!
I don't think boomerang is an element.
Even if it was, nothing beats air.
Yeah, nothing except for water.
Everyone knows that water is the best element in the world.
[screaming]
[grunting]
Guys, come on.
I think air and water are both wonderful elements.
But earth beats the pants off both those silly elements combined!
What?
You think earth is better?
Can water bending do this?
[grunting]
[screaming]
Thanks, Aang, for catching me.
You know, I'm sick and tired of being used as everyone's personal dummy.
Aang! What are you doing?
I'm showing these two why air is the best element.
[screaming]
[laughing]
Alright, enough! No more bending.
You guys call that bending?
Tiny Zuko? You look so cute!
I am neither cute nor tiny.
You are pretty cute, my tiny nephew.
I'll show you tiny!
[grunting]
Everyone knows fire is the best.
You want a bending battle? You got it.
[grunting]
[clapping]
[shivering]
Come on! Huh?
Step back! I'm bringing the heat.
Now I hope that you can see that each element has its own strengths
and weaknesses.
But fire is the best!
Sokka, shouldn't you be doing something fun?
- Or manly? - Pay attention, Simpleton.
This is a water filtration device.
See, your filthy swamp water sits in this hollowed out pumpkin,
then the sunlight makes the water evaporate,
leaving behind the swampy impurities.
You mean the flavor?
Yes, Genius.
It leaves behind the filthy swamp flavor.
Then the clean water vapor collects on the leaf
and drips into this nice, sanitized cup.
Ah. I do love clean water.
What do you say, brain boy?
You love water?
Yee-haw!
What you gonna do now?
What do you think I'm gonna do, leaf head?
I'm gonna rebuild my water filtration device!
Boy, that there's a swamp skin throw down.
You can't be playing with pumpkin juice when there's a throw down.
It just ain't manly.
- But-- - Throw down!
Hey, dude, get the boat!
We're goin' swamp skiing.
[groaning]
Safety first.
[grunting]
Get your dang feet in the skis or I'll strap you to Old Slim instead.
- You ready? - No.
Hit it, throw down.
[screaming]
[laughing]
This time keep your knees bent and your tookus tucked.
Speaking of your tookus, looks like Old Slim's got your pants.
[screaming]
Phew.
[laughing]
[screaming]
Guys, can I get out of the water now?
You tell me. Hit it.
[screaming]
I... I... I did it!
I'm swamp skiing!
I love swamp skiing!
In your face, Air Boy! Who's swamp skiing now?
Not you.
I hate swamp skiing.
Woo! Now that there's a throw down!
Hey, that's mine.
[laughing]
[screaming]
[laughing]
[groaning]
I have an important announcement to make, class.
Next Friday,
the most important event in your young lives will take place,
the Golden Dragon Dance.
The Golden Dragon Dance. But who am I gonna ask?
Suki or Princess Yue?
I saw him first.
Don't make me use my moon powers on you.
I know who I'm gonna ask.
Looks like you got some competition there, lover boy.
Hey Katara, so I was wondering if--
Hey there, I like your hair loopies.
Don't listen to that jerk.
[laughing]
Ew.
[laughing]
Lady trouble?
Every time I try to ask Katara to the dance, something goes wrong.
Maybe we're just not meant to be together.
As your guidance counselor,
I can tell you that words of love are difficult to express.
They are like the clouds, always changing and shifting.
That's it! I know how I'll ask Katara to the dance!
You, me, the dance.
My heart burns for you!
Paru, it's beautiful.
But you're too sensitive for me.
I like sensitive guys.
[kissing]
What is it, Momo?
Aang, that's so sweet. I'd love to go to the dance with you.
You would?
Yes, but I already decided to go with someone else.
[screaming]
What can I say? I like the quiet mysterious type.
I did not see that coming.
