SEASON 2

In which the Eds showbiz-style efforts to raise cash leave their audience less than charitable
HANDS ACROSS ED

The Plot:
Double D's industrial-size electro magnet fails to come up with any cash although there's no denying that its powers of attraction are strong. Unfortunately for the Eds though, what it seems best at attracting is Kevin and Rolf's wrath. After yet another narrow escape the sight of Ed parading star-like in a top hat strikes Eddy with a brainwave - why don't the Eds have their own TV show?
So the Eds roll out the red carpet and together with some very dodgy cardboard cameras, manage to succeed in fooling all but Kevin into trying out for their big show. Eddy's method of auditioning is highly selective - tuba blowing Nazz makes him go all mushy so she's in while Rolf's out for merely mentioning the word 'dance'. Plank tells jokes only he and Ed can get so he's a non-starter and Jimmy is in mainly to spite Sarah, while Sarah being Sarah & Eddy being Eddy means she gets the gleeful push. Being Eddy's Telethon show naturally means there's money involved somewhere and the audience is soon having its heart-strings twanged by his sad tale of how all this selfless effort is to raise money for Ed's eyebrow operation but as the shambolic show progresses and the pledge lines remain obstinately silent the audience becomes anything but charitable and eventually leaves to do a show of its own - what a load of rubbish Ed-Boys!

Top Scenes:
The Eds lurking up in the tree with their outsize magnet which pulls Jimmy across several gardens by his retainer and attracts spanners, cycle pumps and even a boombox from Kevin's pockets plus a golden horseshow from Rolf- but to Eddy's disgust, no cash
**********
Ed in a battered top hat doing his little 'turn' on the stage around a motheaten umbrella.
"I'm fancy! Look at me!"
**********
Renaissance-Man Eddy playing the petulant casting director of his own show and finding the talent mixed to say the least.
**********
Jonny and Plank doing their audition for the show, according to a giggling Jonny, Plank has just told a great joke, there's an embarrassed pause from his audience and then Ed begins to laugh.
**********
The show itself gradually going to ruin - suave, macho Eddy reduced to incoherent garbling at Nazz's suggestion they should jam sometime and prima donna Jimmy refusing to go on because his feather is floppy (or as Edd says it’s a 'plume predicament'.
**********
The other kids decide to do their own show and to Eddy's disgust Rolf's "Aaaaaaaaaaaoooooo, I am the hairless otter, I must eat chicken" dance when accompanied by Kevin earns them lots of CASH!
