    They will, SotFN was just leading to the season's "kick up" where everything will come to together and start building up to a climax which will be the finale.

    I hope we get the same amazement like last time.

    Who's gonna die? That's what I want to know. Will it be two people(that had names that is) like last time? Or will there be more?

    Call your death tolls now. I'm predicting at least two by the end of the season. But I actually think it's gonna be three.

    Iroh(so many reasons to back this up, but we've gone through it before)

    Smellerbee(I don't think they'd kill Jet, but I think they'd give him and Longshot a reason to be even bigger bastards. Well Longshot isn't much of a bastard, but you get the point)

    Suki(Knowing Sokka's luck and the fact that they just brought her back for almost no apparent reason)

    Anyone else dissapointed with how much better Toph and Ty Lee were than the rest of the people?

    I mean, I know they are very skilled, but Toph was able to do more to stop the drill than like 20 master earthbenders combined, Ty Lee was able to hold her breath for ten minutes while Katara plugged up the muddy water in the drill and take out 20 earthbenders in no time at all, without any help from Mai or azula.

    Guys I'm being serious.

    I know Toph and Ty Lee are awesome, but they shouldn't have been that much better than everyone else.

    I'd expect a team of master earthbenders to be better than one master earthbender, no matter how awesome Toph is.

    Toph wasn't really holding back the drill, It was workig just fine and she must have given up because she left half way and went to help Katara, maybe the earth bending army got to confident about they're wall and got lazy. Tylee also caught them off gaurd and im sure none of them knew how to fight against that type of attack. There was a posty before about Tylee fighting like an airbender, air and earth are opposites right? Tylee was just to fast for them.

    Watching Ty Lee, made me think more and more of Airbenders... Look how she jumped across the metal beams... It looked like she was a delayed at little... But I love that Katara called her a circus freak!

    I think that Toph was just in a better position - the Terra Team was attacking the sides of the drill, while Toph went after the more venerable underside. And I don't thik that Ty Lee was submerged in the muck, she ahd her head sticking out, remember?

    And technecally, the fire Nation was able to breach the outer wall - we just have to see if they can capitalize on that fact.

    The earthbenders will probably have that fixed in a day or so. I was a bit perturbed too that tylee just massacred an elite unit of earthbenders, thats just not right. Also, why didnt they attack those flimsy little legs that were pulling the drill along, it looked like if they had broken a few of those the thing woudl have just stopped moving.

    Re-watching this episode for the second time (a friend wanted to see it), the drill itself wouldn't have been able to go through the wall so seamlessly. The tip's pretty blunt.

    (And I still think it looks like a hygiene product, and DUDE, THE COMMANDER DID SAY THAT. I was shocked. I'm starting to wonder if that was actually a raunchy thing...

    As for The Little Mermaid, it's actually his knee.

    Those looked like solid steel pistons - pretty stromg, if you ask me. And I guess seeing Ty Lee kick but helped remind us just how tough Ozai's Angel's are, since I can see most of the Boomeraang Squad taking out that Earthbender batallion (except for Sokka - he's the plan guy).
