As Aang races back to Ba Sing Se, the city erupts into chaos, scattering his friends and enemies into disparate groups. Battle rages in the streets as the Roku Warriors, Freedom Fighters, and the White Lotus try to stave off the invading Water Nation- all the while fighting enraged Knowledge Seekers brought forth by Wan Shi Tong's entrance to the world from the spirit realm.

As the veil separating the worlds grows thin, Aang is told to make a decision by Guru Pathik, but finds himself tormented by the ramifications of each choice...

Meanwhile, the situation in Ba Sing Se devolves further, as Azula and Toph discover just how volatile the city's leadership can be...

And while her enemies' rulers are distracted by petty infighting, Princess Katara decides to put her plan into action.

(C is still sick, but promises to be back by next week!)

When Aang receives a summons to visit with a certain Guru, he does his best to equip his friends with foreknowledge of Princess Azula's actions the last time he drank onion-banana juice, lest history repeat itself.... But will his warnings be enough to stop Princess Katara as her plan unfolds?

Meanwhile, Prince Sokka struggles with his confidence in his sister, in her plan, and in his faith with his Nation... a struggle that may bring him to a Crossroads.

(Cohost "C" is out sick this week with no voice, so its an M^3 production this week! Hopefully he will recover soon!)

Aang and his friends are taken into the catacombs deep beneath the city, where they meet with the Freedom Fighters' new allies.

Meanwhile, Katara and Sokka butt heads, neither willing to concede to the other and follow their leadership.

(Also, check out the end of the episode for a very special message from a listener! We love hearing from you guys. Happy New Year!)

A night of heartfelt conversations and swirling intrigue for Aang and his companions is brought to an explosive halt by a mysterious group of earthbending insurrectionists, and a foe they had thought they left behind comes to their rescue.

Meanwhile, tensions and arguments run high among the Water Nation infiltrators, based on what threatens their military force in the caves below Ba Sing Se, and Katara meets a charismatic young man she thinks could be of use to her...

A slice-of-life episode. Follow Aang as he goes on a scavenger hunt, Zuko as he chats with Mai, and Kanna as she... bakes cookies? I guess you, dear listener, will just have to sit back, pay attention, and enjoy the fun!

[Oh, and don't worry, M^3 is back this week... we hope you can handle a little scratchyness, but we think her voice is close enough to normal that she was ready to reccord!]

Secrets are spilled, alliances are tested, and the calm of the city of Ba Sing Se draws out the doubts, fears, and tensions that have been building in the city's newest players.

Faced with the culmination of Princess Katara's plans, the Avatar and his allies must fend off an assault fleet of water nation ships and soldiers, as well as ensure the crowds of innocent refugees make it into the city safely, with the aid of the warriors of Roku. Toph must contend with the unwilling guards of sanctuary gate, while Aang once again duels Katara, face-to-face.

Determined to reach the power behind the empty throne and deliver the news of the Lunar Eclipse, Aang and his friends finally arrive in Ba Sing Se...

Meanwhile, Princess Katara puts her plan into action, ready to strike the first blow against the so-called impenetrable city...

Princess Katara leads her crew to Ba Sing Se, determined to take the most efficient route- no matter what her brother has to say about the local legends.

Meanwhile, Aang and Azula have an important conversation.
