Seeing Aang get that mad at the end was chilling. Weโre so not used to seeing that from him, but given the situation, I canโt blame him. Appa is more than just a pet or friend to him. Heโs literally, along with Bumi, his only friend left from before the ice.
Also, I love the payoff for Uncleโs interest in Pai Sho. That whole episode where heโs looking for a new lotus tile gets a lot more context now.
