SEASON 2

----------

In which Eddy's craving for attention gains him the up-close kind he hadn't really wanted

CRY ED

----------

The Plot:

Show off Eddy has the crowd lapping up his every move, or at least he does until Jimmy falls foul of a rogue clothes peg and instantly wins the audience he'd strained so hard to capture. Eddy's puzzled - just how did Jimmy manage to gain so much attention so quickly? Naturally Edd's happy to enlighten him - it's sympathy! After all nothing brings people running up and eager to please you faster.

Unfortunately Eddy now sees sympathy as an easy way to get back the attention he so badly craves and he's willing to go to any lengths to conjure some up. A straight-up faked injury seems to be working but he can't compete with the naturally accident-prone Jimmy who wins back his audience with ease leaving Eddy once again feeling sympathy-envy kick in. Greater measures - and risks - obviously need to be taken and Eddy's soon up to his neck in a variety of injury-inducing situations while Edd realises its a straightforward competition and by making Jimmy 'safe' that should be the end of it. But such is Eddy's competitive streak that even then he can't give it up - now he has to be safer than Jimmy and this where he finally gets the attention he so badly wanted, unfortunately its far more intensive than he'd bargained for!

Top Scenes:

Feeble Jimmy dissolving into a pain-wracked mass after being attacked by the savage clothes peg thus taking away Eddy's ill-won sympathy

Jonny: That clothes Plank went right for him Plank! Plank says clothes pegs are prone to attack at the blink of an eye."

**********

The whole sequence where Eddy is trying to get Double D to hit him. At first we see it from our point of view but then we hear it from Ed's ...

Eddy is again telling Edd to hit him, we're hearing them as Ed does ...

Edd (very quiet voice) : "No, and you've just reduced yourself to a neanderthal"

Eddy (very loud voice): "You're a big fat chicken"

Edd (very quiet voice) : "Don't you touch me!"

Eddy (very loud voice): "Chicken!"

Edd (very quiet voice) : "I'm not a chicken"

Eddy (very loud voice): "You're a chicken!"

Perspective changes back to audience POV ...

Ed: Hahahah

Ed runs off and returns holding aloft a small house ...

Ed: Here Eddy, lot's of pain. Hold the onions!"

**********

Eddy whizzing along the ground on his runaway frying pan - having a dreadful collision with the dumpster and then being magically poured/ reconstituted out of the pan by Jonny

**********

Eddy gloating in his 'better than Jimmy's' play safe suit - looking suspiciously like an old pot-bellied stove - obviously anything goes to get the limelight away from the boy in the bubble ... uh ... glove
