[[caption-width-right:350:[[MindScrew Mind bending, isn't it?]][[note]]"Careful, Ed, you don't know where that's been." "Oh, it's right here, Double-D!" [[/note]]]]

One of the more famous episodes, purely on [[MindScrew how strange and off-the-wall the story becomes,]] even in the context of the show.

In this BizarroEpisode, Ed appears in Eddy's bedroom late at night asking random questions about everything he sees, bothering Eddy all night long. In the morning they go to Double-D's house to find him disassembling an antique radio in order to understand how it works. Eddy then gets an idea: if they knew how everything worked, they'd be famous and get rich.

After taking apart a washing machine and Rolf's chicken coop (with Double-D taking notes all the while), things start to get weirder and weirder as the three begin taking apart space-time itself.

Until they accidentally break the universe.

[[RealityIsOutToLunch It proceeds to get even stranger from that point on.]]


!!This episode has many examples, Ed-boy!
* AllJustADream: The ending implies that the Eds disassembling space-time was just their imagination. None of the other kids seem to remember when the universe was destroyed, as they just look at the Eds like they're crazy.
** Even better, given how said "disassembling" started at Rolf's farm, with Ed grabbing a tree only for it to become flat, the implication is that [[DaydreamSurprise they had actually tuned out in the middle of Rolf's story about "the Ugly Boy and the Tree of Heads"]].
* AllMenArePerverts: The scene where Ed reveals the Kanker sisters bathing demonstrates this much about Eddy.
-->'''Eddy:''' ''(Giggling)'' Did ya see anything?
* BorrowedCatchphrase: Sarah borrows Kevin's "Dorks!" also doubling as FinishingEachOthersSentences.
-->'''Kevin:''' (''sees the Eds scrambling to collect Edd's notes on the reality warp'') What are you doing?\\
'''The Eds:''' Uhhh.... nothing?\\
'''Kevin:''' Right. Except for being--\\
'''Sarah:''' Dorks?!\\
'''Kevin:''' (''happily'') Yeah.
* ByTheLightsOfTheirEyes: After a random scene transition, the Eds are stuck in a black void with only their eyes and mouths visible. The void is then revealed to be inside Kevin's right eyeball.
* BrokenRecord: "Hello, light. Hello, light. Hello, light. Hello, light. Hello, light..."
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Eddy points out garages are for cars when he sees Ed's stuffed garage, Ed thanks him.
* {{Deconstruction}}: On the way cartoons (or at least the show's own cartoon reality) [[ToonPhysics work]]; as the Eds' tampering with reality ends with them breaking the universe by pure mistake.
* ExtremeOmnivore:
** At the beginning of the episode, [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Ed]] actually ''eats Eddy's lava lamp''. Please note that this was ''before'' the Eds started dismantling reality.
** Eddy takes this UpToEleven by turning day to night via taking a bite out of the Sun like a cookie.
* FloatingPlatforms: At the strangest point in the episode, the world has been reduced to loads of floating houses, platforms, and other random things.
%% * GettingCrapPastThe Radar:
* ImMelting: Jimmy after Eddy removes his outline. With no outline, the paint the animators use to color Jimmy turns into a puddle. [[BrickJoke Later Sarah comes back with Jimmy in a large pitcher]].
-->'''Jimmy''': Don't spill me!
* IncrediblyLamePun
** Kicks off the entire episode: Ed appears in Eddy's bedroom late one night to ask "How can my feet smell if they don't have a nose?"
** Later on Eddy says they'll be rich, Ed asks "Like potato salad?"
* {{Malaproper}}: After bumping into the sun, Eddy shrugs and says "Well, if you' can't beat 'em, ''eat'' 'em!" before taking a bite out of it like a giant potato chip, turning it into a crescent moon.
* MindScrew: Where to even start?
** Things start to go wrong when Ed makes a tree as thin as cardboard while still maintaining its weight. The Eds are now deconstructing the building blocks and shortcuts of traditional animation, eventually moving on to dismantling space-time.
** Reality completely falls apart the moment Edd notices a hovering cow in the sky. What's left of the universe now resembles a surrealist painting.
** Things soon get much worse. Jonny's head and Plank switch places and the two decide to go camping with a bunch of household objects, Nazz has the body of a purple alligator, and Rolf gets three heads.
* MultipleHeadCase: Rolf in the broken universe.
--> '''Rolf's First head:''' "Many doors, yes?"\\
'''Second Head:''' "Too much for-"\\
'''Third Head:''' "-Couch Potato Ed-boys like yourselves!"
* NoFourthWall: While the show is already pretty self-referential, this episode sees it ''literally'' getting torn down!
* [[NotActuallyTheUltimateQuestion Not Actually The All-Important Question]]: {{Inverted|Trope}}:
-->'''Edd:''' I feel we're getting closer to answering that all-important question!\\
'''Eddy:''' "Is Eddy rich yet?"\\
'''Ed:''' "Can Ed go to the bathroom?"
* OhNoNotAgain: Rolf got upset when he found Wilfred in Gertrude's cage [[NoodleIncident again]].
* OverlyLongGag: Ed opening and shutting Eddy's fridge door. It goes on all night, and poor Eddy is forced to watch the whole thing.
* PerspectiveMagic: Played with as Eddy literally walks into the background and finds the monochrome houses to be very small and his hand goes ''behind'' the sun.
* PortableHole
** Ed cuts a hole in the background which reveals the Kankers taking a bath together. The piece of the background Ed cut off drops to the ground to become a hole itself that Ed can pick up like a newspaper.
** Subverted at the end of the episode. When the Eds are running from Sarah, Eddy and Double-D fall down a manhole. Ed, still thinking the physics are wacky, tries to pick up the manhole, only to pull out the sewer pipe Eddy and Double-D are stuck in and is forced to run while carrying it.
-->'''Ed''': [[TheDitz Big hole]].
* SelectiveGravity: Once the Eds completely mess up the universe, gravity either doesn't work or works however it wants to work. Eddy at one point pokes out from the top of the screen upside-down above Edd, only for the screen to rotate and reveal that they're both suddenly floating and fall down.
* SuddenlyShouting: When Eddy finds Ed in his bed with him.
-->'''Eddy''': Ed...? GET OUTTA MY ROOM!!
* SurrealHumor: ''Full. Stop.''
-->'''Edd, pointing to Rolf's cow floating in the sky:''' "Don't look now, but there's a cow hovering just overhead."\\
'''Cow:''' ''[[SoundDefect (crows like a rooster)]]''
* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave: Ed is this to Eddy when the episode begins because Ed wants Eddy to answer all his questions (not taking into consideration the fact that it's the middle of the night).
* ToonPhysics: This episode is chock-full of it, moreso than by the show's standards.
* TrashOfTheTitans: Ed's garage is filled to the top with unused household appliances, furniture, and other junk.
-->'''Eddy:''' Garages are for cars, Ed.\\
'''Ed:''' Why, thank you.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight
-->'''Eddy:''' A three-headed Rolf. ''Yawn.''
