I cannot decided what the funniest part of this scene is. The fact that Sokka’s plans up until this point have been grounded in reality and then he just starts off with ‘we dress Momo as a ghost’. How Momo is just letting Sokka use him as a part of his presentation and then perches on top of Sokka’s head like a cozy little hat. The fact that there’s basically no reason for Momo to distract the guards if they’re just going to use force anyway. Aang just avidly listening to this plan for a solid thirty seconds. Sokka still holding onto the validity of this plan when in literally any other situation he’d favor the rational plan that draws the least attention. This whole interaction being the clearest example of ‘Sokka and Aang are reasonably intelligent on their own but put together they share one (1) brain cell’. Maybe it’s the part where there’s a good chance that Aang could just walk up and do some airbending and they’d let him in just on the basis of him being the Avatar like, guys, there’s really no need for you to sneak in as bus boys you could just use your celebrity status. 

We appreciate ATLA’s comedy so much, but this scene is constantly slept on and I cannot fathom why. This is where ATLA’s comedy peaked and you can’t change my mind.
