One of the best things in this scene is Ozai’s terrified face.

Zuko straight up told him that he would join the Avatar and help him. And what did Ozai do? He gave him a small, dismissive smirk. 

Because what would his weak, failure of a son could do against all the might of the Fire Nation? He didn’t even care, because he thought Zuko’s help would not make the slightest difference.

But this is the moment he realizes that the kid he thought was a pathetic, useless bender, actually taught the Avatar firebending, including his epic “fuck-you Dad” lightning redirect move (which is btw also Iroh’s “fuck-you, Brother” move), taking away Ozai’s biggest weapon and saving Aang’s life.
