Episode 11: The Great Divide

Aang and friends come to the rim of a giant canyon and must guide two rival groups of refugees across. It seems that this will be no easy task.

Watching Aang step into a greater position of leadership was so lovely. There is a philosophical dilemma that this episode brings up. Is it okay to lie? Utilitarians would argue that lying is okay, so long as it benefits society. Some would argue lying is wrong regardless of the circumstances. While I think Aang did the right thing, what are your thoughts?
