That was a pretty freakin' great episode. The secret is that it was actually a Last Airbender episode and didn't have any Korra in it.

I'm looking forward to season 3 of the show, where in the second episode a powerful Water Tribe political/business mogul tries to recruit Korra for something innocuous and seemingly beneficial, and she just snaps his neck out of pattern recognition.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

And she would, too. Aang deliberated internally for an episode when he realized he might have to kill the Firelord to stop him. Korra is just like "I'll kill you" when a judge sentence her father to death. I think she previously tried to kill someone in Season 1 but I can't remember.

This episode was great because it demonstrates how the Avatar's half-cocked bullshit can be salvaged into something beneficial.

Also because of the art style.

That was the first episode this season that featured the original animation house that did the first season! You can tell the difference almost right away. Everything feels a lot more fluid and alive. More cuts and fewer scenes where background and foreground characters just stand there motionless while speaking.

In the end, I can't believe my relationship with a hotheaded, impulsive person like Friday would have ended so dramatically. Time to go spend my time doing more interesting things.

I was a little surprised by some of the story beats and explanations:
[spoiler]I feel like the avatar has done multi-bending when not in the Avatar state before?[/spoiler]
But I was pretty fanboy'd.

The avatar has done multi bending before when not in avatar state, yes. That was a just a limitation for the first avatar and just for a moment.

Have they?  I can't recall seeing an Avatar bend multiple elements simultaneously outside of the Avatar State.  Switching rapidly from one to the next, sure, but not actually at the same time.

My theory? Half the hybrid animals in Avatar are just regular animals who had a spirit pass through them.

In particular, that GIANT WHITE FLYING SNAKE DRAGON that was spinning around Wan while he was training. Same exactly coloring and fur as Appa.

I think that's a regular dragon, remember they're related to fire bending and all.

I think dragons are just a thing in Avatar world. That's a cool idea. But the rate of cool ideas being true isn't 100% HEADCANON WHINING: [spoiler]also: if minerals are earth then so is metal you crumbums! It doesn't make sense that metalbending works because metal has "impurities". RRRGH If it worked that way then metalbenders should be able to bend the calcium in people's bones.[/spoiler] /whining

Maybe you picked a poor point of evidence?

I assume we haven't seen any bonebenders, fleshbenders or breathbenders for the same reason you don't see many bloodbenders.

Wait, I just noticed...

Did you notice that they just up and offed two sympathetic villains last season?
The gloves are off dude.

God damn you!
