That's another thing I love in the post-DBS Zuko, the way he can't ever be Iroh when he's trying to be (his imitation in WAT and "silver sandwich" blathering in TBR) and yet doesn't notice the times when he actually is being Iroh.

I liked this whole analysis, but I just thought this was such a good point I wanted to quote it. I loved Zuko's "failing over and over again" speech because it was such a Zuko-ish way to put it, but so clearly something he had learned at least partly from the time spent with Iroh. Zuko has changed, and made decisions about how to change, for himself - but he couldn't have been the person who did that without Iroh. I LOVE the way the show has done that.
