(Also, her delight at being portrayed by a giant musclebound guy, in contrast to everyone else nitpicking their own portrayals to death? MADE OF WIN.)
That right there is about 40% of the reason I adore Toph. (The other 60% is because she is made of awesome, of course.) That whole episode is just fantastic. I remember when I first saw it I was a little freaked because it was the last ep before the end, seriously, did they have time for that?!?!? On the other hand, it is brilliantly ridiculous. And, I think, a bit of a nod to Avatar's anime inspiration; what anime doesn't have a recap ep? Though Avatar's is about the best recap ep I've ever seen! (The only thing like it I know of is the end of s3 of ReBoot, which similarly recaps the whole season onstage, only as a musical ^^)
