History Recap / AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheSerpentsPass

* FridgeBrilliance: After the treacherous journey, the young couple name their baby Hope - there's a famously treacherous RealLife nautical route that's best known by its main waypoint, the Cape of Good Hope.
* FridgeLogic: Ba Sing Se is an enormous city and the last Earth Kingdom stronghold. Refugees are flocking to it from all over the world. The ferries from Full Moon Bay are common knowledge among the refugees. So unless the Fire Nation is just really bad at finding things (which is arguably true), then the refugee ferries can't really be ''that'' hidden. So why hasn't the Fire Nation blocked them off?
** It's possible that there are multiple water routes that get changed periodically and it would be too great strain on Fire Nation's naval resources to guard them all.

* KickTheDog: It's hinted that Jet is responsible for the young couple losing their passports.

* FreezeFrameBonus: The ObstructiveBureaucrat has the Cabbage Merchant's cart of cabbages violently destroyed because they might carry a parasite that could spread through the whole city. As the DVD Commentary points out, freezing when the pieces of cabbage are flying around shows he really did have a cabbage slug.

Still reeling from the loss of Appa ([[BlatantLies although Aang ''insists'' he's fine]]), the gang realises that they will need to take a ferry to get to Ba Sing Se instead of just flying. However, a young couple, one of whom is pregnant, has their passports stolen, so is not allowed on the ferry. Our heroes promise to help them across the treacherous [[TitleDrop "Serpent's Pass"]]; they're also joined by [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheWarriorsOfKyoshi Suki]], who's been helping with the war effort. Zuko and Iroh, who ''do'' take the ferry, and meet another familiar face in the form of [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderJet Jet]]; together they help 'liberate' some food.

* ProperlyParanoid: For once, Jet is right on the ball when assuming Iroh heated his tea with firebending.

* NotSoFastBucko: Here comes the Avatar everybody, on his way to find and save Appa. What could possibly get in the way of his journey? Wait, what's that next to the wall of Ba Sing Se?

* YourCostumeNeedsWork: Aang tries to get the Gaang free passage on the ferry to Ba Sing Se using his status as the Avatar only to be told that his costume isn't any more convincing than the others that the ticket lady has seen.

* {{Bifauxen}}: Smellerbee is offended at Iroh's implication she's a boy.
