General Shinu: Ba Sing Se is still under our control. However, Earthbender rebellions has prevented us from achieving total victory.
Ozai: What is your recommendation?
General Shinu: Our army is spread too thin. But once the eclipse is over and the invasion defeated, we should transfer more domestic forces into the Earth Kingdom.
Ozai: Hmm, Prince Zuko, you've been among the Earth Kingdom commoners. Do you think adding more troops will stop these rebellions?

Ozai: Yes. Yes, you're right, Azula.
