Avatar the last airbender book 3 episode 7
May agrees, even though the baby is her brother. Of course, now that Azula’s running the show things do go pear-shaped for Our Heroes, since Azula doesn’t think baby-for-king is an equal exchange. This is me about the trio’s relationship dynamic: It’s like getting within 20 feet of Azula causes people to harden up and smart evil smirking. Teenage girl aristocrat BFFS who hunt down fugitives together and casually almost murder one another. Or at least Princess Azula’s down with threatening violence as a friendship exercise I can’t imagine anyone else would be foolhardy enough to do the same.Īzula and Ty Lee roll into Omashu to collect the third member of their gang, May. We’ve seen that May’s personality isn’t exactly sparkling, but Ty Lee was pretty sweet… until she joined up with Azula, after which point she’s sweet and enjoys inflicting violence upon her enemies. So either Ty Lee is incredibly, incredibly naïve about what her friend’s capable of, or she knows it was Azula and says “Yeah, OK” because that’s just how their friendship works. (Rhetorical) question: Does Ty Lee know Azula, not “the universe,” was the one responsible for her last show being really dangerous? She has to, right? “The universe” doesn’t tell a circus attendant to light a net on fire, and Azula wasn’t exactly subtle. Maaaaan, that is some dick behavior toward your friend! After the performance, Ty solemnly informs Azula that “the universe has given me strong hints that it’s time for a career change,” so she’ll be happy to join her in her hunt for Iroh and Zuko. Sokka, Katara, and the resistance marshall the civvies, while Aang chooses to stay behind and look for Bumi.īack to Azula, who cooly intimidates the circus ringmaster into setting Ty Lee’s safety net on fire and releasing wild animals while she’s balancing on a highwire. Strategic retreat, in this case, could be better. If all the Earth Kingdom citizens in Omashu pretend to have Pentapox, they’ll be able to leave the city, regroup, and figure out what to do next. Aang, though shocked and disappointed, realizes that maaaaaybe Bumi had a point with the whole “violence is not the answer” thing. Resistance leader Beardy tells Aang that King Bumi totally punked out when the Fire Nation attacked, just surrendering without even trying to fight back.
Azula tells Ty Lee she respect her decision, but she wants to watch her show before she goes on her way.
Ty Lee informs Azula that, for all she wants to help her-and you can tell she does, because actual lady villain friendship circle-she’s actually pretty fine where she is (“My aura’s never been pinker!”). The first person she searches out is her childhood friend Ty Lee, a bubbly nobleman’s daughter who left behind the court lifestyle in favor of literally joining the circus. Meanwhile, Azula decides her hunt for Zuko and Iroh could use some stealth, so she ditches the royal procession and assembles a team.
