History WhatAnIdiot / EdEddNEddy

'''You'd then Expect:''' Eddy or Ed, who are very strong, to use their strength to pull the door out or get the lock out or something.\\

'''Or:''' The Eds to search for another door.\\
'''Or:''' Them to get out through a window.\\

'''You'd Expect:''' Them to simply get out from said trashcans.\\

* In "Laugh Ed Laugh", Ed and Double D trap Eddy (who [[SanitySlippage has gone insane since there isn't any kids for him to scam]]) inside a shed to cure his sanity, locking it tight in the process.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Double D to hide the key himself, given his meticulous nature.\\
'''Instead:''' He gives the key to ''[[TheDitz ED]]'' to hide it.\\
'''As a Result:''' Ed stupidly devours the key, trapping the Eds inside and forcing Eddy (who just had his sanity cured) to use Ed as a shovel to dig their way out.

* In “Virt Ed Go,” The Eds plan on building a clubhouse because they want to make money off of the kids visiting it, but they first need to find out where to build it.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' For the Eds to build the clubhouse in one of their backyards.\\
'''Instead:''' The Eds go through pointless obstacles while picking a spot to build the clubhouse. Edd does eventually find a spot, which is a tree located at an alley.
** The Eds are now building their clubhouse so they can charge the kids a fee for visiting. They finally finish building it while going through AmusingInjuries.\\
'''You’d Expect:''' For the Eds to keep the clubhouse secure by locking it, so that nobody can claim it or enter it whenever they please.\\
'''Instead:''' They leave the clubhouse unlocked. This bites them in the butt later when the Kankers steal their clubhouse because it was neither: 1. built in the backyard of anybody, nor 2. saddled with any locks with keys, which are both things that could have prevented it from getting hijacked.

'''Instead:''' Eddy has the bright idea to put his finger into the lock and it gets stuck. Then he gets his finger out, but with the lock still stuck on his finger. This results into a series of events that lead to each of them being inside a trashcans.\\

* In "Honor Thy Ed" the eds enter an old abandoned house, because Kevin promised Eddy a jawbreaker if they do so. Then Eddy and Ed scream and pretend they are in danger in order to scare the other kids and it works. Ed strangles himself in front of the window and his ellbow is covered. However he latter steps to much and it is revealed he is faking it and because of this the kids leave. After this Eddy wants to get out, but there is a spider on the doorknob and flicks the spider off which results into the doorknob falling.\\

'''You'd Expect:''' Eddy to give up and find a better scam, or at least reboot the scam without inviting Jonny, who was the reason why the scam failed the first time.\\

'''You'd Expect:''' Them to simply get out from said trashcan.\\

'''Or:''' The Eds to search for another door.

'''Instead:''' They fire wildly and use up all their ammo, but the Kankers remained unscathed. The trio then incapacitates them by using a special sticky substance and thus, the Eds endure yet another sexual attack from the Kankers.

'''Instead:''' They fired wildly, used up all their ammo, the Kankers remained unscathed, they incapacitate them by using a special sticky substance and the Eds endure yet another sexual attack from the Kankers.

'''Results:''' Jonny and Jimmy are forced to walk the "Plank", and the Eds end up getting sexually assaulted for the first time in the series. [[{{SarcasmMode}} Happy ending, indeed.]]

* The Eds and Kankers were in a "squirt-gun duel" and the Eds aren't landing any successful shots at them.\\

'''Instead:''' She gives her money to [[TheDitz Ed, whose IQ is in the negative integers,]] leading to the above trouble.

'''Instead:''' He gives it to ''Edd'' to chew. If Eddy himself couldn't chew the gum down, [[DidntThinkThisThrough why did he think]] [[FacePalm the weakest member of the gang could pull it off]]? The result was predictable.

--> '''Eddy:''' Ed, how can you be so stupid?
--> '''Ed:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint I watch]] [[TakeThat cartoons, Eddy!]]

* In ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddysBigPictureShow'' ,Double D is handed what appears to be a can of jelly beans. [[spoiler:Double D is standing in an abandoned factory originally used for pranking toys, with two guys known for pulling pranks; in fact, Double D had ''just been pranked'' by the other two Eds into believing they had been killed by a supernatural figure]]. Also, the Eds are [[spoiler:on the run from the kids]], and can't afford to attract any attention to their position. Finally, we're talking about a guy who actively lampshades his being SurroundedByIdiots on a regular basis.\\

* In [[WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddysBigPictureShow the movie]], after [[spoiler: Eddy apologized to the kids and earned his happy ending, Johnny arrives and beats up the Eds, not knowing about the above.]]\\
'''You'd Expect:''' [[spoiler: Johnny to stop and listen to the Eds' apology and side of the story.]]\\
'''Instead:''' He [[spoiler: [[RevengeBeforeReason wound up attacking the Eds]], which leads to the other kids to promptly beating him up as a result. Jonny should've noticed that the Eds and the kids reconciled, which would have led to the kids explaining the situation to Jonny.]]

'''You'd Expect:''' For Kevin to see what Eddy is trying to do, and find another word to call him besides "dork."\\

** Also, Eddy's next target to tempt is Edd. Edd has to stop using big words and can only form sentences with only one-syllable words. Eddy tempts Edd by tearing out pages from a dictionary.\\

** The Eds are now building their clubhouse so they can charge the kids a fee for visiting. They finally finish building it while going through AmusingInjuries.:\\

'''Instead:''' He falls for the trick and actually trusts his idiot friend as a doctor. Only when Nazz points out the "Kick me" sign on his back does Edd stop believing he's dying. Sarah then remarks this page's quote: "What an idiot!"

'''Instead:''' With the exception of [[HeroAntagonist Kevin]], [[StatusQuoIsGod They keep]] [[StrictlyFormula falling for it.]] [[OnceAnEpisode Every single time]].

'''Instead:''' [[StatusQuoIsGod They keep]] [[StrictlyFormula falling for it.]] [[OnceAnEpisode Every single time]].

* Throughout the series, it's hinted many a time that [[spoiler: Eddy's brother]] is a monster instead of the CoolBigBro that he often says that he is. For example, one of his inventions is a gigantic stink bomb, he sends Eddy baby toys and apparently he did something to Rolf's chickens. \\

'''Instead:''' They leave the clubhouse unlocked. This bites them in the butt later when the Kankers steal their clubhouse because the clubhouse was neither: 1. Built in anybody’s backyard, nor 2. Had any locks with keys, which are both things that could have prevented it from getting hijacked.

** Even Sarah has an idiotic moment here.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' For Sarah to either go to the candy store herself, or give her money to someone more trustworthy, like Edd.\\
'''Instead:''' She gives her money to Ed, whose IQ is in the negative integers, leading to the above trouble.
