    I think in the vision of the dragons, they were going for the classic Despair scene, popular in British literature and very popular in anime, cause one was telling him to fight it and another was telling him to give up and die.

    Thanks to Nick??Friday night's crazy schedule, I only saw two-thirds of the episode when I turned it on at 8:00, but from what I've read, Zuko's illness resulted from the incident at the lake;??discarding a piece??of himself with the Blue Spirit??was so traumatic, it worked him into a frenzy, I guess.

    Poor Zuzu... I hope he gets better....

    Anywho, the first vision/nightmare/whatever seemed to me to be like one was the oh-so-cliched "Shoulder angel" and the other was the "shoulder devil". ((You know, like??in cartoons and movies and junk, like in "Emperors New Grove" w/ Kronk. ))

    The one with his mom wasn't anything, maybe a flashback or something....

    The one where he looks like a wack-o version of Aang might have been a foreshadowing...Of a certain thing that certain people don't want to happen....That involves certain people joining a certain group....((Can I stop typing "Certain" now??))

    I love him with long hair!! and I hope he gets better! But I think the time he turns into like Aang it means for him to like go and help him and his friends, although if you check any of the topics were I answer I hate the Idea of Zuko teaching Aang firebending or even joining with him I hope he will give up trying to capture him and sorta just wach him and sometime hlep him but not join the gang

    The dragons were a tad cliche but I actually thought that it worked. I think that some cliches have to be used in some shape or form and that they did it in a way that worked for the??situation.??Just asking, I could tell that the red dragon was Iroh's voice but was the blue dragon Azula? If not who was it?

    I was hoping we'd see a little more of his past, maybe in some sort of chaotic fever dream.?? Oh well.?? I am intrigued about what this "metamorphosis" will mean for him in the future.

    I think his visions were the best part of the episode. I think I liked it most because of all the foreshadowing.

    yeah thats what I thought too. I wish there was more flashbacks because I love Zuko alone and it would be cool to add on to that

    yeah it was Azula...remember when she said go sleep like mother, you knew it had to be Azula because that was Zukos only sibling.

    It meant to be for Zuko to be sick. Spiritual sickness reveal his vision as a Fire Lord Zuko fighting the conscience of 2 dragons. What does it mean? It might lead to speculation that he becomes great Fire Lord, he helps Aang to balance of 4 elements, and/or he overcomes his father to restore his honor. Who knows what would happen next? Nice of Iroh is always there for his nephew.
