Quotes 

• Chong : [singing]  Two lovers forbidden from one another, a war divides their people and a mountain divides them apart. Built a path to be together...

  [Stops and says normally] 

  Chong : Yeah, I forget the next couple of lines, but, uh, then it goes...

  [sings enthusiastically as everyone else dances] 

  Chong : Secret tunnel, Secret tunnel. Through the mountain. Secret, secret, secret, secret tunnel! Yeah!

• Chong : Hey, hey...! River people.

  Katara : We're not river people.

  Chong : You're not? Well then, what kind of people are you?

  Aang : Just people.

  Chong : Aren't we all, brother?

• Katara : [to Sokka]  Why's your forehead all red?

  Chong : Nobody react to what I'm about to tell you.

  Chong : [referring to Aang]  I think that kid might be the Avatar.

  [Sokka smacks his forehead, making it redder] 

• Chong : There's an old story about a secret pass... right through the mountains.

  Katara : Is this real or a legend?

  Chong : Oh it's a real legend. And it's as old as Earthbending itself.

• Aang : So all you need is to trust in love to get through these caves?

  Chong : That is correct, Master Arrowhead.

  Aang : [Aang looks longingly at Katara]  We can make it.

• Chong : [to Sokka after a cave in]  Yeah, it's no use. We're separated. But at least you have us.

  [Sokka screams and digs faster] 

• Aang : You guys are nomads? That's great! I'm a nomad.

  Chong : Hey, me too.

  Aang : I know. You just said that.

• Sokka : Look, I hate to be the wet blanket here, but since Katara's busy, I guess it's up to me. We need to get to Omashu. No sidetracks, no worms, and definitely no rainbows.

  Chong : Whoa. Sounds like someone's got a case of destination fever. Heh. You worry too much about where you're going.

  Lily : You gotta focus less on the where and more on the going.

  Sokka : [Emphatically]  O-Ma-Shu.

• Chong : The curse says that only those that trust in love can make it through the caves. Otherwise, you'll be trapped in them forever.

  Lily : And die.

  Chong : Oh, yeah, and die. Hey, I just remembered the rest of that song.

  [Strums a chord on his guitar and sings low and dramatically] 

  Chong : And die.

• Sokka : Chong, how long do those torches last?

  Chong : Chong, how long do those torches last?

  Lily : And we have five torches, so that's...

  [she takes the other four torches she is holding a strikes then on the ground like matches, lighting them instantly] 

  Lily : ...ten hours.

  Sokka : [while grabbing and stomping out the torches she lit]  It doesn't work like that if they're all lit at the same time.

• Sokka : [Trying to sing to stop the badger moles from attacking]  Badgermoles coming toward me. Come on guys, help me out.

  Chong : [singing]  The big bad badgermoles who work in the tunnels. Hate the wolfbats but love the sounds.

• Sokka : How far are we from the tunnel?

  Chong : Actually, it's not just one tunnel. The lovers didn't want anyone to find out about their love, so they built a whole labyrinth.

  Sokka : Labyrinth?

  Chong : I'm sure we'll figure it out.

  Lily : All you need to do is trust in love... according to the curse.

  Sokka : [frustrated yell]  Curse?

• Moku : Oh, great, your plans have led us to another dead end.

  Sokka : [Defensively]  At least I'm thinking of ideas and trying to get us out of here, Moku.

  Chong : Whoa, whoa, wait a minute. We're thinking of ideas? 'Cause I've had an idea for, like, an hour now.

  Sokka : [Explodes]  Yes! We're all thinking of ideas!

  Chong : Well, then listen to this. If love is the key out of here, then all we need to do is play a love song.

  [Sokka smacks his forehead]
