Tarrlok is Amon
Think about it guys. Tarrlok is a persona, the corrupt councilman, which he is using to stir up dissent within the non-bender population and drive a wedge between them and the Totally Oppressive Bender-Only Council. He basically made the bender/non-bender divide a real thing just to give Amon's claims more meaning, to show that every non-bender is going to be affected. Non-benders are the majority, and if all of them stand together, they will be able to overpower the council. And they stand behind Amon, who has already stated his aim to control the city, and is driven by his hunger for power instead of equality. Tarrlok has a very similar goal made clear in this episode.
"Tarrlok" will be ousted with the rest of the council but he will still be in charge from under the mask.
Perhaps they are different people and are just working together, however I can't see Tarrlok taking the fall like this. What does he gain by playing the bad guy and demonising the social class he's in?
