History WMG / AvatarTheLastAirbenderPlot

It is almost certain she found out that Zuko had picked up a Lightening Redirection move in the invasion aftermath, and becoming paranoid[=/=]delusional is not the same thing as becoming stupid. A direct hit would have her brother feeding it back to her, a near miss onto the paving stones would have him eating shrapnel. Too bad, so sad, she would have rather had him alive to play with but....

It's shown in Aang's flashback in "The Storm" that Pai Sho already existed in his time, so the secret organization closely connected to the game could have, too. Now, the Fire Nation executed their genocide of the Air Nomads at the point in the Avatar Cycle when the Avatar was an Airbender, and the logical conclusion would not be that he was frozen in [[HumanPopsicle suspended animation]] in an iceberg but that he had been killed. As the years went by without a new Avatar appearing, it must have seemed obvious, according to the first episode Opening Narration, that the cycle had somehow been broken by death while in the Avatar State, and the Avatar wasn't coming back. So without the Great Maintainer of Elemental Balance and Harmony, where would they get someone to "restore balance to the world" during an imperialist war? Mixing the bloodlines of the two who started the war... it made sense to Iroh. No way he gave Zuko that "understanding the other four elements" lecture in "Bitter Work" just to help illustrate how to redirect lightning: "All this four elements talk sounds like Avatar stuff." And Destiny was okay with that plan -- Zuko found the actual Avatar when he was [[Main/DangerousSixteenthBirthday sixteen]].

At some point (possibly an Epilogue), Toph's father will stop acting like a modern Main/OverprotectiveDad, and start acting like the wealthy provincial businessman in a feudal society that he is. When that happens, he will come to realize that having a daughter in the Avatar's inner circle can only be a good thing for the House of Beifong. And what's the closest into the inner circle a woman traditionally can get?

* And he's got access to the other side of the story, too.

** Even if he is willing to settle for second best and try to set Toph up with the 'hick' above or perhaps that eligible young Fire Lord via this route, [[Main/BadassNormal he's still hosed]] [[Main/RoaringRampageOfRevenge even if he somehow]] finds someone Main/BadAss enough to pull it off.

This just seems so obvious that I'm surprised no one mentioned it before. Sort of like cleaning the river spirit in Anime/SpiritedAway or calming down Hei Bei. That would explain why the Painted Lady didn't do anything to protect the village. * So it's like how CaptainPlanet can't actually fight [[WeaksauceWeakness actual pollution?]]

** Jossed, ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'' confirms that Toph lived to be at least 40.

*** The "immortal" part at least is {{jossed}} in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'', as we Professor Zei's skeleton when the library is revisited.

** He was the only one who was there for knowledge itself, rather than looking to use it for violent ends. Wan Shi Tong also appreciated the professor's gift the most, and may also acknowledge the dedication it would take for a mortal human to ''willingly'' trap himself eternally in such a place purely for the information it held. As the spirit is dedicated to the collection for and preservation of his library, and holds animosity only towards those who would abuse it - not mortals in general - this theory would make sense; he found a kindred spirit, as it were.

** The part about the boomerang may be confirmed—if you look at the present-day council’s table, there’s definitely a boomerang embedded in it under the seat where Sokka sits in the flashback episodes.

[[spoiler: Mai and Ty Lee were the things that made her insane by leaving her.]] So she would have Mai and Ty Lee by her side. Since Mai is Zuko's girlfriend (or ex at that point). Either way, that makes Zuko a huge walking target. Also keep in mind Ty Lee being able to block Katara's chi so she couldn't [[spoiler: use the water to freeze and defeat Azula.]] Combine that with Azula. She would most likely use lightning first against Katara, considering how well water conducts electricity. At least, Azula would have defeated them. At worst, she would have killed Katara with lightning and Zuko with Mai stabbing him.

At the end of the episode, the two tibes decide travel to Ba Sing Se as one tribe. Since every episode of the first season that appear to be filler have some come back later, it make sense that the tribe were supposed to reappear in said city maybe to help the gaang. But because of the poor reception of this episode, those plans were dropped.
