The Avatar and the Firelord - S3-E6

Corrected entry: Roku dies at the end of the episode because he is about to be engulfed by a pyroclastic cloud. It is made clear that when the Avatar is in imminent danger, The Avatar State is triggered. So it should have triggered, saving Roku, but that couldn't happen for obvious plot purposes, even though it defies what they said earlier.

Correction: First, The Avatar State is only triggered reflexively as a defense mechanism until the Avatar learns to control The Avatar State. Roku has, at this point, long since mastered The Avatar State and so here it is not triggered. Second, entering The Avatar State does not make the Avatar immortal, it just makes them more powerful and grants them the full awareness of all previous Avatars. Not only is an Avatar in The Avatar State not immortal, if an Avatar dies while in The Avatar State, the Avatar line will end forever. Roku knows this, and he also knows he is doomed, which is why he deliberately does not enter The Avatar State. He is trying to preserve the Avatar line for future generations.

Avatar Day - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: When the village leader switches the wheel of punishment to Community Service, it is on the space next to Boiled in Oil. However, all of the other shots of the wheel have another section in between these two.

Sokka: Listen to this: The Boy in the Iceberg is a new production from acclaimed playwriter Pu Won Tin. He scowered the globe gathering information on the Avatar. From the icy south pole to the heart of Ba Sing Se. His sources include singing nomads, pirates, prisoners of war and a surprisingly knowlegable merchant of cabbage.

Trivia: Wan Shi Tong is of one the few things in this show that is not a reference to Asian cultures, but to Ancient Greece instead. In their mythology owls were the symbol of wisdom and their goddess of wisdom, Athena, was often depicted with an owl.
