Added DiffLines:

* ContrivedCoincidence: Jonny just happens to show up with a bucket full of clams after sewer diving, just as the Eds were looking for some to trade with Jimmy. Double D acknowledges how awfully convenient the timing is.


Added DiffLines:

* DerailedTrainOfThought: While hunting for clams, Ed forgets what they're doing and thinks he's calling at Eddy's house.
-->'''Ed''': Can Eddy come out to play?\\
'''Eddy''': I'm right beside you, Ed.\\
'''Ed''': Hi, Eddy!


Added DiffLines:

* LeaveTheCameraRunning: The camera lingers on an overhead shot of the Cul-De-Sac while the heads go door to door scavenging for clams.
-->'''Jimmy''': (looking through peephole) What do ''you'' want?\\
'''Eddy''': Giant Teddy Bear?\\
'''Jimmy''': Plums!\\
'''Eddy''': (growing impatient) What's with the food!?\\
'''Edd''': [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Plums are good for ya, Eddy.]]


Added DiffLines:

* QuakingWithFear: Jimmy when he [[CornerOfWoe retreats to the corner]] of a closet with his paints to escape the Eds.
-->'''Jimmy''': [[ComicalOverreacting How much must an artist suffer? Oh, the torment...]]

Added DiffLines:

* CrossingTheBurntBridge: After ruining Jimmy's painting with their earlier intrusion, the Eds are forced to go back to his house to make a second trade. Jimmy is understandably not happy to see them and has kept his door locked in advance.
-->'''Jimmy''': (looking through peephole) What do ''you'' want?\\
'''Eddy''': Giant Teddy Bear?\\
'''Jimmy''': Plums!\\
'''Eddy''': (growing impatient) What's with the food!?\\
'''Edd''': [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Plums are good for ya, Eddy.]]


Added DiffLines:

* FishEyeLens: This effect is used when Jimmy is looking through his door's peephole.


Added DiffLines:

* ARareSentence: Double D's tone of voice implies he's aware of how strange his request is when he asks:
-->'''Edd''': Could we borrow a cup of... clams?
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
Wrong. He only realy did that in "Your Ed Here", at that was considered an exceptionally low thing for him to do. Also, in Season 5 "Too Smart for his own Ed", he lost a bet to Eddy, and still stuck to his end of the bet by giving Eddy money.


* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Although he was a jerk by not telling the Eds he didn't have any paint to begin with, Kevin actually ''does'' make good on his word by letting the Eds have his sawdust once they paint his shed. Later episodes would have Kevin back out of any deals he makes with the Eds [[ItAmusedMe for his own amusement]].

Added DiffLines:

* TongueOnTheFlagpole: While looking for eggs, Ed sees a popsicle in the freezer and tries to lick it. His tongue gets stuck to the popsicle, which in turn is stuck to the freezer. So when Ed tries to bring the eggs to Eddy, the tongue pulls him back, causing him to destroy all the eggs.

Added DiffLines:

* KissDiss: While the Kankers are excited over their "boyfriends" making a surprise visit, Marie calls for a group hug before May declares they kiss them. Ed runs away scared, not wanting to be kissed and dragging his friends with him right as the Kankers leap at them, causing them to miss and kiss the ground instead.


* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot:
** If Ed had checked the fridge first instead of the freezer (and in turn gotten his tongue stuck on a popsicle), he could've given Eddy the eggs he needed without accidentally smashing them.
** If Jonny hadn't caused a fuss over the Eds trying to get sawdust from a ''dead'' log, the ChainOfDeals could've ended before it began.
** When the Eds reach the point of needing to get ''plums'' from Rolf in order to (eventually) get the ''egg'', Ed manages to convince him to trade said plums for his yo-yo. As such, it stands to reason that they could've offered it from the start.

* ChainOfDeals: The Eds want an Egg from Rolf. Rolf would only be willing to give them one if they get him some sawdust. They try to get sawdust from sawing logs, but Jonny stops them and eventually tells them to get it from Kevin. They try to get the sawdust from Kevin, but he'll only let them have it if they paint his shed. Only problem; he doesn't have any paint. They go to Jimmy to borrow some paint, but he'll only part with it if they can get him some clams, which... You get the idea. There are several points where the Eds have to ''double back'' to some characters in the chain.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: The egg the Eds buy has an unfertilised yolk, meaning even if Ed hadn't ruined everything, they never would have hatched a chicken out of it.

* MundaneObjectAmazement: When offering Rolf something to trade for his plums, Ed offers him a yo-yo and demonstrates one trick called "walking the dog", which is just him dropping it to the ground. Rolf gives it a try himself and declares he enjoys how simple it is, declaring it to be something his family will tell stories of for generations.

Unfortunately, Ed blows their cover by announcing himself as the legs and causing the whole disguise to fall off. When the Kankers attempt to kiss their "boyfriends" for their surprise visit, Ed runs away screaming, dragging his friends with him.

The Eds need eggs for their omlettes, so they turn to Rolf, who'll only trade them the egg. No sooner do the Eds agree on this than they find themselves having a ChainOfDeals.
