Avatar: The Last Airbender – The Search Part Two (Team Avatar and Azula Enter the Forgetful Valley t

Avatar: The Last Airbender – The Search Part Two begins with Azula waking up to a hallucination of Ursa. Convinced that the illusion is real and trying to prevent Azula from becoming the Fire Lord, she attacks—Katara. Sokka and Katara hold off Azula as she demands to know where Zuko took the letter. Meanwhile, outside of the camp, Zuko reveals the truth about his biological father to Aang and how Fire Lord Azulon wanted Ozai to kill Zuko. Aang is worried about what this information means for the state of the Fire Nation and their harmony plans. Azula shows up and starts lightningbending at Aang and Zuko, demanding answers. Time rewinds when little Azula burns part of the garden, and Ursa scolds her. Young Zuko is confused about how Azula can be so cruel. Ozai briefly observes Ursa comforting Zuko before he meets with Vachir of the Yuyan Archers, ordering Vachir to eliminate Ikem. Zuko holds Azula off while Aang checks on his friends. Azula snatches the letter from Zuko before Zuko gets the upper hand and questions his relationship with his sister. Azula questions why Zuko chose not to discard the letter when he had a chance. Zuko decides to put their differences aside and rejoin the group. The rest of Team Avatar put out the fires Azula started. When everyone reunites, they fly on Appa. A flashback reveals Ozai, Ursa, young Zuko, and little Azula eating dinner at the table, discussing recent events like Azula’s firebending training. Ozai scolds Zuko for trying to correct his sister even though she is incorrect. Ozai says Azula was born lucky, while Zuko was lucky to be born. Ursa yells at her husband for making Zuko feel inferior but is interrupted when the guard announces that Vachir wants to meet with Ozai. Vachir informs Ozai that he could not follow Ikem in the Forgetful Valley but assures Ozai that Ikem couldn’t have survived. Without solid proof that Ikem has been disposed of, he demotes Vachir and declares he is no longer a Yuyan Archer. Ozai enters Ursa’s room and states Ursa’s treason by writing letters home. Ozai reveals that Ikem is dead, and Ursa is heartbroken. In the present, Team Avatar disguises themselves when they enter Hira’a. They find people watching a play, which Zuko and Azula saw the Ember Island Players perform when they were young. The Fire Nation siblings reminisce about when they would reenact the play. After the play finishes, Team Avatar asks if anyone has seen Ursa. The new director of the play, Noren, approaches them and introduces himself. He briefs them about knowing Ursa and invites them to his house to talk privately. Noren’s wife, Noriko, discusses marriage with Aang and Katara, while Zuko and Azula meet Kiyi, the daughter of Noren and Noriko, and Kiyi, the doll. Noren reveals Ursa’s past with Ikem before she married Ozai and when Ikem ran away into the Forgetful Valley. After saying their goodbyes to Noren’s family (Kiyi wishes for Zuko to return), Aang confides in Zuko about their situation. Zuko reveals that Azula took the letter, and they are heading for Forgetful Valley. Zuko relives the memory of Azula entering his room to tell him that Ozai will kill him. Ursa arrives and drags Azula away to give her a talk and learn what happened. Ursa confronts Ozai and refuses the idea of Zuko being murdered. Ursa makes a deal with Ozai to keep Zuko alive. Ursa will give Ozai an undetectable poison to use on Fire Lord Azulon so Ozai can become Fire Lord, and Ursa will leave the palace. Ursa wants to take her children, but Ozai wants them as collateral. At night, Ursa kisses Azula and Zuko goodbye. Zuko wakes up, and Ursa reminds him that everything she’s done is to protect him. Ursa returns home to discover that her parents have passed away. She cries on the stage, and that’s when she meets Noren, who offers her breakfast. When Team Avatar enters the Forgetful Valley, Azula tries to make her own path, which the others strongly disapprove of. They discover the unique markings on the animals and veg
