(The Scene opens on the house in the upper ring the heroes have been using in Ba Sing Se. It shifts inside, to show a series of childishly drawn pictures of Appa lying on the floor. We see Sokka lying on his stomach, working intently on yet another sketch. 

A more distant shot shows Ben playing a video game and Toph reclining on the floor nearby, while Momo licks her foot

Katara: We found a printer to make our posters. (holds up a poster with an expert rendition of Appa, picture of Aang, and dense script, while Aang smiles and points to it)

Sokka: Hey, I thought designing "the lost Appa poster" was my job. I've been working all day on my Appa. (holds up a crude drawing with a proud smile)
Aang: (perplexed) Sokka, the arrow is on Appa's head. (Katara struggles to contain her laughter)
Sokka: (pointing to the sketch) This IS his head.
Katara: (taking it to study up close) Why are feet coming out of it?
Sokka: (snatching the sketch back indignantly) Those are his horns! 

Ben: Why is a cloud coming out of Appa's Butt

Sokka: That's his tail (hangs his head) I haven't seen him awhile ok?!

Toph: (ironically) It looks just like him to me.
Sokka: (flattered) Thank you, I worked really... (realization sets in) Why do you feel the need to do that?
Katara: Let's just stick with the professional version.
Sokka: Grrrr! (violently rips the drawing to tiny shreds)
Aang: (enthusiastically) Come on, let's get busy! (holds up two stacks of leaflets)

(Cut to show Aang, Ben who is Stinkfly and Momo soaring at rooftop level over Ba Sing Se, dropping a stream of leaflets behind them into the city streets.)

Cut to the interior of the upper ring house, where Katara and Sokka are playing a card game on a wooden table. Toph lies on her back nearby, bouncing a small ball off of a wall. Ben, Aang and Momo burst though the front door. all three approach the table.)

Aang: we just finished dropping all the leaflets. Has anyone come in with news about Appa?
Katara: (studying her cards) It's only been a day, just be patient.

(Aang settles to rest his chin on the table dejectedly. A moment later there is a rapping on the front door.)

Aang: (popping up eagerly) Wow, you're right! Patience really pays off. (rushes to open the door) Joo Dee?!
Joo Dee: (with usual eerie grin and careful speech) Hello, Aang and Katara and Sokka and Ben and Toph. (the other three gather to talk to her)
Sokka: What happened to you? Did the Dai Li throw you in jail?
Joo Dee: (dismissively) What, jail? Of course not. The Dai Li are the protectors of our cultural heritage.
Toph: But you disappeared at the Earth King's party.
Joo Dee: Oh, I simply took a short vacation to Lake Laogai, out in the country. It was quite relaxing. (Sokka's face shows clear suspicion)
Katara: But then they replaced you with some other woman who also said her name was Joo Dee.
Joo Dee: I'm Joo Dee.
