    I speculate that in the first half of "Secret of the Fire Nation":

    * The episode will begin with the interplay between the Gaang and
    the Sandbenders; then when they come to the ferry they will have to
    decide where to go.
    * Early on they will meet up with the couple, and of course decide to accompany then across the Serpent's Pass.
    * It will have an Aang-focus and a Sokka-focus:
    * Sokka perhaps figuring out how he feels about Suki in light of how he still feels about Yue, though she is gone.
    * Aang will be dealt with too, as he grapples with his need to be
    responsible in spite of the grief . . . the "secret of the
    Fire Nation"
    is the final trigger for him to settle on the "responsibility" side of
    things.
    * The climax will be the fight against the serpent.
    * On the Zuko - Iroh side, it will build up the Jet plot arc, and perhaps getting the job at the teahouse at the end of the episode, with Jet scheming.



    I speculate that in the second half of "Secret of the Fire Nation":

    * We will become acquainted with Ba Sing Se (kind of like "The Waterbending Master" and the city there) and the siege.
    * The rest of the action will revolve around them trying to stop the thing that the general in the trailer on youtube says "We can't stop that thing!"
    * The Suki - Sokka plotarc will come to some kind of resolution.
    * "Meanwhile," the Jet - Zuko plotarc will come to some kind of resolution.
    * NOBODY goes to any parties and NOBODY dates anybody . . . there isn't enough space in 40 minutes to cram that in, what with everything else happening. I strongly suspect that these things won't happen until later Ba Sing Se episodes.
    * However, we may be INTRODUCED to the character who will be Zuko's "date."

    I don't think the Suki/Sokka and Jet/Zuko arcs will nessecarily be resolved, as the episodes were not planned by the writers to be put together.

    Can't say I'm actually agreeing with this, but it would make sense. Not because of their similar appearences (plenty of main characters tend to be drawn to look similar and sometimes even nearly identical to backround characters, it is a cartoon u'know), but because she's traveling with and apparently has ties to that couple the group is helping, which Zuko has actually met b4.??Do I really need all these italics? Eh.

    I had a dream that Zuko was cheating on Killika with Song, but whatever. I think song will be there. I never heard her voice, my tv lost the sound during that episode....

    and who's Gorge?

    I agree. At the start of summer, didn't they say something about "new movies EVERY friday night, all summer long"? Then they replay??Kangaroo Jack for like 2 weeks, and Jimmy/Timmy wasn't good anyway. I just don't get it.

    If your really askin and u meant to say "George", well here's how it is. Like a week ago, there was a discussion in one of the threads pertaining to what went down at the comic con. One guy brought up the names for shipping that the creators had. The names were very close 2 the one's we use regularly so we thought that maybe the creators were checking in and used them to create the titles for the shipping pairs that they displayed. I think it was U4ric that pointed out that the creators never actually stated that these were the "official" names 4 the pairs and that we had a right 2 call them whatever we want (yeah sounds like her)??i.e. calling Suki and Sokka pairing Suki/Sokka, Sokki, Suki, etc. One guy (Pharme-something or whatever) joked that ??if we really had the right to do so, then maybe he should refer to the aformentioned pairing as quote-unquote "George". A bunch of other users encouraged him (yeah i didn't think it was that funny ) so he decided to make it his signature, complete with a Suki/Sokka picture (saw it comin). ....Yeah this is just another??why I don't get into shipping 4 any show. Seriously I don't even care if your really askin', I'm just glad??2 have a reason??for explaining this crap 2 someone.
