Quotes

Sokka: Pretty clouds.
Zuko: Yeah, fluffy. (edit)
Sokka: Zuko good were all here, now all we need to do is get to the warden and get to the gondolas.
Zuko: and how do we do that?
Sokka: I'm not sure!
Zuko:(groans) I thought you thought this through!
Sokka: I thought you told me it was okay not to think everything through!
Zuko: Well maybe not everything, but this is kind of important!
Chit Sang: Hey uh...fellas, I think you're girlfriend is taking care of it.
(We see Suki running over prisoner's heads, preforming some fancy acrobatic moves to get up to the ledge, beating up some guys and coming to a stop before the warden)
Warden: You wouldn't dare...
(Suki smiles and twists the Warden around tying him up.)
Suki: Sorry warden, you're my prisoner now. {ties the warden up)
{Panting, everyone else arrives}
Suki:We got The warden! now let's get out of here!
Hakoda: That's some girl
Sokka: (sighing) Tell me about it. {smiles) (edit)
Katara: (Reading from note left behind by Zuko and Sokka.) Need meat, gone fishing, back in a few days. Aang, practice firebending while I'm gone, do ten hot squats and twenty sets of firefists everytime you hear a badgerfrog croak.
Aang yawns and tries to go back to sleep, then hears a badgerfrog croak
Aang: Ohhh, no one else has homework...One hot squat, two hot squat, three hot squat, four hot squat... (edit)
Chit Sang: I hear you're hatching an escape plan.
Sokka: What! Um we're not hatching anything...except eggs..?
(Suki and Zuko groan and put their heads down in their hands)
Chit Sang: Well unless you want the warden to hear about this egg, I want in. (edit)
Zuko: Want to hear Uncle's favorite tea joke?
Aang: Sure I like jokes
Toph: Bring it
Zuko: I can't remember how it starts, but the punchline is leaf me alone I'm bushed
everyone stares (edit)

Trivia

When Sokka tests out the current, the wall doesn't seem that far away, but Chit Sang and his gang, take all night and far into the morning to get halfway. (edit)
If you look closely at the last of the prisoners exiting from the gondola, you'll see one of the pirates in The Waterbending Scroll and The Waterbending Master from Season 1. (edit)
