"Dance with something!"
Jonny and Plank have had a fight, and the former leaves the latter behind. Eddy takes advantage of this to sell Jonny a friend, but none of them work out for Jonny.
Tropes:
- An Aesop: Friends fight sometimes, but you can still reconcile with each other.
- Bittersweet Ending: Jonny and Plank reconcile, but Jonny doesn't pay Eddy, whose bedroom has been trashed. However, the Eds do enjoy themselves dancing with Jimmy.
- Dance Party Ending: After Eddy shoos out all the kids, the only one remaining is Jimmy, who starts dancing to disco music. Edd and Ed join in, and Eddy decides that "If you can't beat 'em, show off" and dances as well.
- Feud Episode: Between Jonny and Plank.
- Get Out!: Eddy eventually orders out the unannounced party guests - save for Jimmy, with whom the Eds have a dance.
- Reading the Stage Directions Out Loud: When Ed is sent to convince Jonny to buy a new friend from Eddy, he keeps misreading the Cue Cards, starting with "Sit down and say 'hello Jonny.'" It also gets inverted when he misinterprets his lines for a question being asked to him.Ed: Ask him how... he is!
Edd: [whispering] "How are you?", "How are you?"!
Ed: I'm fine, thanks! Okay, a little hungry... - Riddle for the Ages: We never did learn what Jonny and Plank were fighting about prior to the episode.
- Vinyl Shatters: Kevin casually smashes Eddy's records.
- Wild Teen Party: Eddy stages a "singles mixer" for Jonny to choose a new friend, but then the other kids invite themselves in and start wrecking Eddy's room.
- "X" Marks the Spot: At the beginning of the episode, Edd finds something in his backyard with a metal detector. He marks an X on the grass so they can dig it out. We never see what it is, but when Ed tries to pull it out, it sinks all the lightposts in the cul-de-sac.
