* BittersweetEnding: The Eds technically win in the end, managing to play hide-and-seek with the kids, find them all, and then successfully avoid Jimmy and make it to the home free tree. But the tree is destroyed due to them making a dash for it while it was uprooted, and the episode ends with Ed constantly lifting up the debris, only to lose his grip and have it crash down on Double D and Eddy.
* CuttingTheKnot: How do the Eds deal with the tree acting as a home free? Simple! [[RuleOfFunny Uproot the tree and kart it around in a little red wagon!]]

* PlotIrrelevantVillain: The Kankers only show up for one brief scene. When looking for a new hiding place, Eddy considers a garbage container, but before leaving due to the smell the Kankers randomly pop out. Eddy is shocked that they are apparently playing too, only for Lee to say they aren't, and all of them make kissy faces at Eddy, with him freaking out and running away with the lid slamming shut on their lips.
