Line 26:

The two villages later created a city to display the couple's love, which is actually the city of Omashu (the names of the lovers are revealed to be ''Oma'' and ''Shu,'' whose names were joined together). The final line in the script states "love is most bright in the dark". Although first confused by this statement at first, Katara and Aang later find out that the two lovers put glowing crystals showing how to get out of the tunnel, and these crystals only glow in the dark. Finally, the two (plus Appa) get out of the tunnel. But what happened to Sokka and the nomads?

Strangely enough, the second group run into music loving, giant molesbadgers in the underground. With the nomad's songs and music, the molesbadgers showed the group to the exit and reunited them with Aang and Katara. But the episode ends with an unhappy note; the protagonists reach an Omashu captured by the Fire Nation.

Meanwhile, Zuko and his uncle, Iroh, are trying their best to survive on their own. Things aren't so easy for the used-to-be-pampered characters though -- Zuko can't find food and Iroh ends up consuming a dangerous plant in the wild. After thinking whether they should go to an earth kingdom village (while risking being killed) or going to a fire nation town (which would risk being turned over to Azula), both decide to travel to an earth village for medicine and food. They then meet a friendly mother and daughter, who are both suffering from the war. The episode becomes much more interesting when the teenaged daughter speaks of her father's death due to the war and her poor views of the Fire Nation. She later shows a burn on her leg when she wants the sympathize with Zuko and show her pain caused by the war. Surprisingly, Zuko does not show his anger when the girl speaks of the war badly; he instead seems to be dealing with his father's hatred and frowns when he see's the girl's scar.
