(Cut to a shot of Aang's feet in the water. She turns around to face him once again in a bending stance.) Katara: Okay, let's see what you got. (She drops her hold on him and walks back to her former position. You got it? Aang: (blushing, slightly flustered) Oh. See, if you move them closer together you protect your center. (evaluates Aang's form and comes over to correct it) Your arms are too far apart. Aang: So, you were showing me the octopus form.
(He lifts his hair to look at them and lets his arm drop lazily back into the water.) Whenever.

Katara: (teasingly) What, like you're ready to go right now, naked guy? Sokka: I can be ready in two minutes. She is in a bending stance as she faces Aang across from her, who is naked from the waist up and also in a martial arts stance.) Sokka: We've got a lot of ground to cover if we wanna make it to Omashu today. She wears the equivalent of a white two piece bathing suit. In the background, Katara too has dispensed with her normal blue garb. His hair is no longer in a pony tail and now lies tangled in a wet mass on his head. He is naked except for a white loincloth. The third, Sokka, rides lazily in a boat made of an enormous leaf.) Sokka: You guys are gonna be done soon, right? (Cut to a side shot of Sokka floating past the camera in the foreground. Two of the figures, Aang and Katara face each other like gunslingers in front of a natural arch of stone that protrudes from the cliff wall. Three figures appear in the river near a sand beach on its far bank. The camera pans down and to the right to show that the cliffs have been cut by a river that runs at its bottom. Act I (The episode opens with a daytime shot of the sky and cliffs covered in vegetation.
