Transcript:Avatar Day

[We begin the episode in the middle of a forest. The Gaang is asleep. Momo discovers that a spider has set up a web in Sokka's mouth. Momo tries to pull a fly out that lands on it, waking Sokka.]

Sokka: [Spits] What are you doing in my mouth? [Momo chitters] Momo, you need to be a little more sensitive to my boundaries.

[A Fire Nation soldier riding a rhino appears at the campsite, which awakens Katara and Aang. 3 others arrive.]

Fire Nation Soldier: Give up! You're completely surrounded!

[An archer fires flaming arrows at Sokka's sleeping bag.]

Sokka: Come on! Come on!

Katara: My scrolls!

Aang: My staff!

[Katara freezes another soldier's knife to a tree stump, giving her enough time to grab the scrolls. Another soldier brings down a tree to try and impede Aang's progress. When that fails, the last soldier throws a small bomb, but Aang grabs his staff and airbends it away.

Aang: Yip yip! [The Gaang escapes on Appa.]

Sokka: Wait, my boomerang!

Katara: There's no time!

Sokka: Oh I see, so there's time to get your scrolls and time to get your staff, but no time for my boomerang?

Katara: That's correct!

Sokka: Oh.

[The Gaang arrives at a small shop.]

Aang: Sorry about your boomerang, Sokka.

Sokka: I feel like I've lost part of my identity. Imagine if you lost your arrow, or Katara lost her...hair loopies.

Merchant: Here's your produce, ponytail guy.

Sokka: I used to be boomerang guy...

[Katara hands the merchant money from the Water Tribe.]

Merchant: Hey, Water Tribe money!

Katara: I hope that's OK.

Merchant: So long as it's money. Have a nice Avatar Day!

Aang: Avatar Day?

Merchant: You guys are going to the festival, right?

[They all appear confused, then happy.]

[They make it to Chin Village, hosting Avatar Day.]

Aang: There's a holiday for the Avatar! Who knew?

[They all turn and see the large effigy of Avatar Kyoshi.]

Katara: Look! They made a giant Kyoshi float!

Sokka: And here comes Avatar Roku! [Roku effigy rolls by.]

Aang: Having a huge festival in your honor is great, but frankly, it's just nice to be appreciated.

Sokka: And it's nice to appreciate their deep-fried festival food!

Katara: Aang, look! [The effigy of Aang comes down the street.]

Aang: Biggest me I've ever seen!

[The three effigies of the Avatars now appear next to each other.]

[A villager carrying a torch comes down the street...]

Sokka: The torch! That's a nice prop, it's bright, dangerous, [sniffs] it smells manly...but I'm not sure if I could carry it off.

Katara: Hey, what's that guy doing?

[He rips through the Kyoshi effigy, setting it on fire. As he heads for the Roku effigy, the villagers begin chanting "Down with the Avatar!". He sets the Roku effigy on fire, followed by the Aang effigy.]
