At the Fire Lord's beach house, Aang is practicing his firebending while Zuko watches and demands more ferocity from him. At first, Aang makes a feeble attempt at a particular move, but does much better with the next attempt. Everyone else is lazily sitting on the steps of the beach house. Katara prepares watermelon juice for everyone, causing Aang to excitedly abandon his training to get a drink. An angered Zuko criticizes them all for being lazy. Sokka and the others, except for an annoyed Zuko, head to the beach to have a party.
