Zuko decides to deflect to Team Avatar upon learning this, warns Lieutenant Jee and the 41st Division, and help them escape with supplies during the Day of Black Sun.

Instead of being knocked out for a few weeks, he'll have been out for months, if not a year. This will add to Aang's pressure to master Firebending before Sozin's Comet comes.

[[WMG: Zuko will have a major case of AdaptationalHeroism and GenreSavvy by season 2 and onward]]
After learning that his ImpossibleTask was merely a sham made by Ozai to motivate Azula and had no interest in taking his son back. Since season 2 will likely take place a couple years after the season 1 finale, Zuko spends years reflecting on this and ultimately decides that chasing Team Avatar is a waste of time and journeys with Uncle Iroh to Ba Sing Se to establish a new life. By the end of season 2, he's grown accustomed to his new life with his loving uncle... until he learns that his sister, Azula, has taken control of the Dai Li and is plotting to take Ba Sing Se... and murder the Avatar (by means of studying Zuko's entries). Zuko holds no intention of returning to the Fire Nation and is much more savvy with his sister's manipulations, and is ''horrified'' of Azula's intentions of killing Aang (and, keep in mind, Zuko merely wanted to capture Aang ''alive''). He'd likely only resort to going home when Azula blackmails him by threatening to kill their uncle when she promises to spare Iroh and arrest him for "treason". Azula would only want Zuko back home so when her plans fail and Aang somehow survives, she'd make sure Zuko would be the one to blame if Ozai realizes.

** Doubtful. The big goal for Team Avatar in Mid-Season 3 is the Day of Black Sun, which is their failed attempt to defeat the Fire Lord before the Comet arrives without needing Aang to learn firebending. That event also marks Zuko's HeelFaceTurn in the animated series. And right before the Comet shows up on Ozai's astrology map, the sun and moon briefly overlap each other, meaning that the Day of Black Sun is happening. The only padding was Team Avatar enjoying themselves in Fire Nation towns while they wait for their invasion force to assemble.

[[WMG: A young Yakone will be a student of Hama]]
After all, he had to have learned Bloodbending from ''somebody.'' At the end of the episode, he will get pursued by Fire Nation soldiers sometime after Hama's arrest. He will instinctively Bloodbend to ward off his pursuers before looking up at the moon and realizing it's in a waning crescent.

[[WMG: The Combustion Man will fill the Rough Rhinos' role in Season 2]]
Since the Rough Rhinos ended up being a troupe of wasted characters, the Combustion Man will pursue Zuko and Iroh. They will barely escape with their lives, but Zuko will be impressed with his powers.

**While in Katara’s time all known Waterbenders outed to The Fire Nation Army were killed, but decades ago in the cartoon when her grandma was an young woman the benders were simply captured and taken to the Fire Nation mostly with their families all assuming the worse that their love ones were killed, not knowing they were caged up and their hands were bound every time they need an drink of water. It was implied by Hama many died in captivity while she eventually escaped years later thanks to Bloodbending. Fans of the animation series say Hama’s escape this why the Fire Nation started to kill Waterbenders when they went on Future Raids so they wouldn’t have another incident like Hama who escaped the prison and was living in plain sight of her former kidnappers since she never left the Fire Nation (Although that was mostly because she wanted revenge which she did every Full Moon until being arrested)

Due to censorship, Jet in the cartoon was an infamous case of UncertainDoom until WordOfGod confirmed that he died. Since this version appears to be aimed at a slightly older demographic, Jet will pass away onscreen.

* In the original cartoon, Katara was going to grab a cup of tea at the Jasmine Dragon before she realized that Zuko and Iroh were there. In this version, Zuko may actually try to give her a table and wait on her like a normal customer. However, she’ll freak out when she realizes that it’s him and run away. Zuko might have the choice to chase after her because he knows by default that Aang is in Ba Sing Se if Katara is in the city. However, he instead lets her go, willing to move on with his life rather than waste his time chasing Aang.

Katara mentions that the Southern Waterbenders were killed instead of captured by the Fire Nation (although a later line implies some may have fled the region rather than being killed) by the Fire Nation which would mean that Hama wouldn't have been captured, learned the heart to escape and later taught Katara bloodbending after her escape as she's a waterbender from the Southern Water Tribe. This means that Katara would have learned bloodbending differently, assuming it is adapted at all.

Considering that the Beifong family is rich, surely they must be able to have audiences with the king of Omashu himself. While she does end up learning earthbending and honing her senses from the badgermoles, Bumi takes it upon himself to train Toph to be the best earthbender following close behind him, with him acting as a grandfather figure to the blind earthbender. It'd also be epic to see a flashback of the two dueling it out. With Omashu taken over, Bumi would've surely figured out ahead of time that Aang would be journeying back to Omashu, which is now under Ozai's rule. He warns Aang not to seek him out, but to find an old student and friend of his, "The Blind Bandit".
