I can’t believe the episode “The Ember Island Players” managed to 1) playfully make fun of the show and some of its weak points (“did Jet just…die?” “you know, it’s really unclear”), 2) recap all three seasons before the series finale, and 3) perfectly predict The Last Airbender (2010)
Shachi: We’ve started Union, and we have some demands to make [pulls out a packet and hands it to Law]. And if you love us, you’d listen to what we have to say and not rip up the only packet I could print off.
Penguin: We’re out of printer paper btw.
Law:[Takes packet] Out of curiosity, how many of you are in this “Union”.
Penguin: That’s not important.
Law: So just the two of you. [Sighs and starts reading the packet] ……… What the hell is this?
Shachi: Which part?
Law: All of it. But specifically, “Captain is too restrictive, won’t let us go outside the ship while it’s moving. Some of us want to touch the fish”— It’s a submarine, we go thousands of feet underwater and you’d both be crushed by the sheer pressure, so you’re welcome [flips page]…
Law: “We want a shaved ice machine. Snow cones suck. We hate the snow cone machine”.
Penguin: AND its broken too.
Law: Which one of you broke it?
Shachi and Penguin: [Pointing to one another] He did.
Law: I’m not reading the rest of this, and I’m docking both of your pay.
