History Awesome / AvatarTheLastAirbender

* [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheSiegeOfTheNorthPart2 "The Siege of The North Part 2"]]: When Katara, Yue, and Sokka catch up to Zuko after he kidnapped Aang at the Spirit Spring. Zuko asks her if she is "Here for a rematch?", and she says "it's not going to be much of a match". She then blocks a fireball that enters the screen just as she finishes her sentence while Sokka and Yue look on from Appa's saddle. She sends a shockwave of ice hurtling towards him. When it reaches Zuko, she encases him in a pillar of ice that she raises up high, then drops. Zuko falls to the ground unconscious.

** How Zuko gets Ozai to listen. He starts by explaining Aang is alive. Ozai threatens to kill Zuko if he doesn't leave. Zuko in response draws his swords and tells his father that he is going to speak his mind and Ozai will listen. Ozai relents at the realization he cannot intimidate his son anymore. He even admits Zuko can kill him.

** Under the might of the comet, Ozai demonstrates true flight as a Firebender, blasting through the sky like a fighter jet.

--->'''Zuko''': For so long, all I wanted was for you to love me. To accept me. I thought it was my honor that I wanted, but really, I was just trying to please you. [[DisproportionateRetribution You, my father, who banished me just for talking out of turn!]] ''[[AbusiveParents My father]]'', who challenged me, a 13-year-old boy, to an Agni Kai. How can you possibly justify a duel with a child?!\\

'''Zuko''': It was cruel! And it was wrong.\\

'''Zuko''': [[ArmorPiercingResponse No! I've learned everything!]] And I had to learn it on my own. Growing up we were taught that the Fire Nation was the greatest civilization in history, and somehow the war was our way of sharing our greatness with the rest of the world. What an amazing lie that was! The people of the world are terrified by the Fire Nation. They don't see our greatness. They hate us! And we deserve it. We've created an era of fear in the world. And if we don't want the world to destroy itself, we need to replace it with an era of peace and kindness.\\

* [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheBoilingRockPart2 The Boiling Rock Part 2]]: The Warden of the titular prison demonstrates just how dedicated he is to his job when he is held hostage on the cable car, when [[KillUsBoth he demands it to be cut down with him in it]]. Bonus points for having boasted about it in the [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheBoilingRockPart2 first part of the episode]], showing he puts his money where his mouth is.

* [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheWaterbendingScroll "The Waterbending Scroll"]]: Captured by pirates and about to be turned over to Zuko, Sokka extricates the Gaang from the situation with nothing more than some clever wordplay.
