He's not already in a relationship with Mai, he's currently in hiding and hasn't seen Mai in years. They start a new relationship after the fall of Ba Sing Se.


* HilariousInHindsight: Zuko running off from Jin after kissing her. Based on his story so far, one would think it was because he was presenting a false "Lee" identity to her and he couldn't bear to see how she'd react if he revealed who he really was. Then the start of Season 3 shows he's already in a relationship with Mai, which presents another possible reason for him running off: his current girlfriend really would not take such a thing well.

True. But a 5 minutes short doesn't exactly qualify as a "scene".


* SignatureScene: 95% of time, when people talk about this episode, they're talking about Iroh's tale.

* HarsherInHindsight: This episode aired immediately after Mako's untimely death. As such it has a memorium to him at the end of Iroh's tale.

* CommonKnowledge: At least for the people outside the English speaking community, many thought Mako was the name of Iroh's son. Not the case.

* TearJerker: Iroh's segment, without a doubt, thanks to the revelation of his son who died in war.

** "The Tale of Iroh." In-universe because we find out that his cheerful jaunt through the city dispensing wisdom and soothing crying babies was actually his preparation for a tearful memorial marking the death of his only child. Out-of-universe because this was the first episode to air after the death of
Iroh's segment, without a doubt, thanks to voice actor.
** "The Tale of Momo" essentially summarizes
the revelation of bond both animal companions share with one another. Momo repeatedly has his son who died hopes dashed thinking he's found Appa, only to eventually curl up in war.
a paw print left by Appa at the end. Even the new friends he's made cry for him.

* HeartwarmingInHindsight: Iroh's story is very sad but at the same time, there's a glimmer of hope to it. He gets another chance at it with Zuko and is implied to have been a good enough of a pseudo grandfather to his daughter, Izumi, that she'd name her own son after him. No telling how many times he got her to calm down as a kid like he did with the kid here.

* OneSceneWonder: Jin only has a few minutes of screentime (her second and final appearance during season 3 is a blink-and-you-miss-it cameo with no lines), but she became a fairly popular character for shippers to pair Zuko with. Jin's popularity is explained by her and Zuko having obvious chemistry, her being the first person to kiss Zuko onscreen, and her plucky and positive nature providing a healthy balance to Zuko's brooding and angst.

* GeniusBonus: Real ''Haiku'' has to employ imagery from nature, which is what the Haiku master does during her Rap Battle with Sokka. Sokka employs the modern style which is not bound to nature symbols, which is called ''gendai''.
