After Appa leaves a trail of fur clumps, Iroh teaches Zuko about his vast ocean of chi, and Aang finally MOVES THAT BOULDER, Sokka cashes in some vacation hours to pursue Knowledge. Stored in a centuries-lost Library guarded by the big owl himself, Wan Shi Tong, there's got to be at least one map of the Fire Nation – right? Sokka lies because he believes he's justified, despite their spirit guide's distrust of human intentions. But books and scrolls get sidelined when Sokka uncovers "the darkest day in Fire Nation history" is written in the stars – and coming soon! Looks like the "Moon Problem" could give Aang the edge he needs to face the Fire Lord. Intelligence gathered, Toph holds the fort long enough for GAang to escape Wan Shi Tong's talons... but her sand-blown senses prevent her saving Appa from those pesky sandbenders! With their furry-friend/means-of-travel captured, Team Avatar's is left stranded in the desert. May Professor Zei rest in peace.

Aang knows Toph is the teacher he's been searching for, but her richy-rich parents, the Beifongs, ain't having it. Even after Toph puts the smack down on a whole band of Earthbending pros, her dad can't see she's a total rock prodigy. But now that her true prowess is out in the open, Toph's gonna follow those good vibrations and offer her tutelage to the twinkle-toed Avatar.
