** Meanwhile Eddy gets his own moment by telling Edd that [[JerkassHasAPoint he's not as innocent as he thinks he is]] and built the device that destroyed the cul de sac.
--->'''Eddy''': Like you were pickin' daisies! ''You'' built the stupid thing!!!

--->'''Edd''': If ''you'' had paid attention to what I said and ''not pushed the red button''– ''(a fight breaks out)''

---> '''Edd:''' [[NoNameGiven MR. EDDY'S BROTHER!!!]] As the older sibling, don't you think you should rather be setting an example for Eddy? And not, um... ''(Eddy's bro gives him a SlasherSmile; Edd loses steam)'' belittle him... in front of his... [[OhCrap friends?]]

-->'''Rolf:''' ''[enraged upon seeing Eddy's Brother [[ForTheEvulz clobber his younger sibling just for his own amusement]]]'' Rolf has had enough of your flapdoodle, elder one! [[LetsGetDangerous PREPARE YOURSELF FOR A MERCILESS THRASHING!]]
-->''[[LetsYouAndHimFight (tosses Kevin in front)]]''
-->'''Kevin:''' (''looks around fearfully, then regains his confidence'') Hey, bro-guy! (''Eddy's Brother turns around and glares at him'') Lay off him, man!
-->'''Nazz:''' Yeah, Mr. Macho Man!

* This show of ''all'' ''[[SadistShow shows]]'' actually portrayed DomesticAbuse in a straight and serious way.

** Eddy's Brother in general. He has only ''five minutes'' of screentime, and we got a fully fleshed-out character.

--> '''Edd:''' [[NoNameGiven MR. EDDY'S BROTHER!!!]] As the older sibling, don't you think you should rather be setting an example for Eddy? And not, um... ''(Eddy's bro gives him a SlasherSmile; Edd loses steam)'' belittle him... in front of his... [[OhCrap friends?]]

** Ed won just by [[GeniusDitz being clever]]. No SuperStrength, no [[RealityWarper reality warping]], just a simple yet smart move at the right time, only aided by Newton's First and Third Laws. It's like the writers were apologizing for his [[TheDitz ditzy]] [[{{Flanderization}} phase]].

* When Eddy is clinging to his brother's door, trying to keep away from him so he won't get beat up again, it's Ed to the rescue. But this time it's different: Ed doesn't use his strength to beat up Eddy's brother, he does something ''[[DumbassNoMore smart]]''. He grabs one of the door's hinges and pulls it off, sending the door rocketing towards Eddy's brother, which slams into his face and knocks him out. Now this is ''[[KindheartedSimpleton Ed]]'' we're talking about. This guy's [[TheDitz mental capacity]], which would have most people worried, is doing something SMART. This is specifically ''shown'' as Ed being smart. He's terrified at first, not sure about what to do, until he notices the door is about to burst and has a EurekaMoment. It wasn't a "What does this do?" that Ed usually does- he went for that door hinge with purpose, knowing ''exactly'' what it would do.

*** There's also the fact that Ed probably was remembering last time he used his strength in anger, nearly killing Plank in front of Jonny, and is bound and determined that the only person who gets hurt this time is the one person who deserves it, hence [[GeniusDitz the being clever]].

* The other kids spent the whole movie trying to beat up the Eds for a [[NoodleIncident horrific scam]]. And when they see Eddy getting the beating of a lifetime from his bro, [[EveryoneHasStandards they are shocked and appalled by the wanton cruelty of his brother's actions]]. In-universe FridgeHorror sets in and they stop to think about what it must have been like to live with this guy. So what do they do? Even after what was pretty much Eddy's fault, and even if doing so means they'd potentially share his fate, they bury the hatchet and try to save Eddy!

** From the kids' perspective, Eddy wronged them deeply with his latest scam. So they believed what they were doing was to bring him to justice. However, Eddy being tortured by his brother wasn't justice, it was unnecessary cruelty from someone he admired and didn't do anything to. In other words, the kids thought Eddy's Brother was going WAY too far!

** Eddy's Brother in general. He has only ''five minutes'' of screentime and we got a fully fleshed-out character.
*** His ''SlasherSmile!'' [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/EddysBrother_3006.JPG Damn!]]

* During the car chase, the kids catch up to the Eds and grab onto the car as it approaches the playground. Ed quickly blames Eddy, who then blames Edd, who calmly says "Excuse me, I'll be right back," and then reaches out and grabs the merry-go-round. The centrifugal force that sends the kids flying off the car, and the car itself slingshotting into the desert.

* Even though it was all a prank, Double-D thinks his friends are in mortal danger of dying from the quicksand. And when they sink beneath the surface, he starts ''clawing'' at the mud to get them to safety. A touching moment for anyone, but remember: this is ''[[ObsessivelyOrganized Double-D]]'' we're talking about here! He can't sleep if he's in an unlabeled environment. He goes insane if he doesn't have a shower in the morning. And here he is digging through filthy mud to save his friends without a second thought or a moment's hesitation.

* Edd singlehandedly constructing the "S.S. Mutant Almost a Chicken Duck" boat.

*** But Edd, [[HypocriteHasAPoint innocent or not]], is '''[[BewareTheNiceOnes done]]''' letting Eddy push him around, [[IWarnedYou reminding him that he at least tried to mediate things until Eddy's toxicity came in there as well:]]

--->'''Eddy''': Like you were pickin' daisies! You built the stupid thing!
*** But Edd, [[HypocriteHasAPoint innocent or not]], is '''[[BewareTheNiceOnes done]]''' letting Eddy push him around.
--->'''Edd''': If you had paid attention to what I said and ''not pushed the red button''– ''(a fight breaks out)''

* Nazz finally ''has it'' with Kevin ignoring her crush on him in favor of his [[CargoShip precious bike]] and ''demolishes the thing''! '''[[NiceGirl Nazz]]''' of all people just TookALevelInBadass!

* When Eddy is clinging to his brother's door, trying to keep away from him so he won't get beat up again, it's Ed to the rescue. But this time it's different: Ed doesn't use his strength to beat up Eddy's brother, he does something ''[[DumbassNoMore smart]]''. (As pictured above) He grabs one of the door's hinges and pulls it off, sending the door rocketing towards Eddy's brother, which slams into his face and knocks him out. Now this is ''[[KindheartedSimpleton Ed]]'' we're talking about. This guy's [[TheDitz mental capacity]], which would have most people worried, is doing something SMART. This is specifically ''shown'' as Ed being smart. He's terrified at first, not sure about what to do, until he notices the door is about to burst and has a EurekaMoment. It wasn't a "What does this do?" that Ed usually does- he went for that door hinge with purpose, knowing ''exactly'' what it would do.

* After Eddy's Brother gets defeated and Eddy makes his apology, it looks like the Kids are still coming after him (except for Johnny and Plank, who haven't even arrived yet). Ed runs up and yells: "[[TakeMeInstead NO! TAKE ME!]]" Ed was willing to sacrifice himself for what Eddy did. Pretty noble of Ed.
* Sarah ''BEATING THE EVER-LOVING SHIT'' out of Johnny/Captain Melonhead (who arrived alongside Plank too late to witness Eddy's Brother being revealed for what he truly is and Eddy's apology) for attacking her new friends, especially her brother. Followed by Kevin, Rolf, and Nazz.

* The movie was able to deconstruct everything: The Eds' flaws (Ed doing something smart, Edd standing up for himself and showing physical strength, and Eddy displaying remorse and humility for being a {{jerkass}}), The Kankers (by making them ''help'' the Eds instead of torturing them), [[{{Jerkass}} Kevin and Sarah]] [[KarmaHoudiniWarranty getting what they deserve]], and the Eds finally getting accepted by the kids as their friends.

-->''[[LetsYouAndHimFight *tosses Kevin in front*]]''
-->'''Kevin:''' Hey, bro-guy! Lay off him, man!

** Nazz slapping Kevin!

** [[TerribleTrio The Kankers]], who weren't above abusing a curb-stomped Edd near the show's end, '''help''' the Eds by capturing all the kids who were hunting them down in order to protect their "boyfriends", finally evolving beyond DiabolusExMachina. And, even if it was an accident, they arrive at exactly the right time [[note]](If they'd found them too early, no one would know about Eddy's FreudianExcuse. If too late, Eddy would've been beaten for longer, and wouldn't probably say a thing if there were no witnesses to save his ego.)[[/note]], so everyone can see Eddy's Brother [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk in his full glory]], which results in Eddy's apology. So, [[FridgeBrilliance the Kanker Sisters are indirectly responsible for the Eds being accepted by the Cul-De-Sac Kids]].

** Nazz, in general, is more than just fa FlatCharacter; she finally gets more focus and more characterization... She even gets a full name, the ONLY one besides the Kanker Sisters to get that canonized! Nazz Van Bartonscheer. (Spelling confirmed by Tabitha St. Germain, who voiced Nazz in the first episode.)

** The fact that Edd is willing to give Eddy another chance after their fight also speaks volumes about his good nature. After everything Eddy's put him through, [[WithFriendsLikeThese everything Eddy puts him and Ed through on a daily basis]], Edd has every right to leave that bridge burned, but he still decides to change his mind. A remainder that BewareTheNiceOnes aside, Edd is a NiceGuy through.

* The Kankers giving Sarah a "wet willie", then making her and Jimmy pull their battlewagon as they try to save the Eds, giving her a taste of her own bossy, domineering medicine. It balances out all of her [[KarmaHoudini Karma Houdinis]], making it more awesome.

And even as he's captured by the Kankers, he's able to partially free himself and is about to get a shot starting with Eddy, figuring if the Kankers will maul him and the other kids for doing so, [[TakingYouWithMe at least the Eds will go down before that happens]].
