One + One = Ed

"One + One = Ed" is the 4th episode of Season 2 and the 30th episode of Ed, Edd n Eddy. In this episode, the Eds stumble into a bizarro universe that defies the laws of physics.

Plot
Eddy is shown happily asleep at night but wakes up to see Ed lying next to him in bed. While Eddy yells at him to go home, Ed ask a number of useless questions to Eddy and eventually taking Eddy with him to the kitchen. While Eddy tries to get some sleep, Ed stays up all night opening and closing the fridge, making the little light in the refrigerator go on and off. In the morning, Eddy appears very sleep deprived. After yelling at Ed again, they visit Edd at his house and find him disassembling an old radio. Eddy then has an idea to get rich by learning and taking things apart.

They leave Edd's house and go to Ed's garage where they find a mountain of items. Ed takes apart a washing machine, finding one Eddy and a whole bunch of "doohickies". Next, they go to Rolf's house and disassemble a chicken pen. Ed takes hold of a tree and turns it, showing it is flat. Ed then slides under the asphalt, Eddy crushes a house by jumping on it, and eats the sun, causing nighttime. Several other strange events occur, and the Eds eventually find themselves inside of some strange twisted world where standard laws of physics do not apply. The Eds find Jimmy and then Eddy removes his outline (It was originally just his shirt until Eddy noticed the thread of his shirt is attached to his outline). Sarah then arrives angry at this, but Eddy gets rid of her with the help of some cartoon physics.

Edd soon becomes excited over their discoveries, thinking they could make an appearance on the cover of "Intellectual Discoveries' Magazine". After seeing a cow floating midair, he becomes uncomfortable and walks away with Ed and Eddy. Sarah comes out of a small house and claims that everything is broken and she wants Eddy to fix it, who shortly removes her mouth. Eddy states he loves taking things apart only for Sarah's mouth to start biting him. After Eddy asks Edd to get her biting-mouth off of him, the Eds disappear into an original scene transition that looks like a checkerboard. The Eds then appear in Kevin's eye, meet Jonny who has Plank for a head and is carrying his own head around, Nazz who has a large body of a purple reptile, and Rolf with three heads coming from behind the wall revealing static.

The Eds escape after Ed inflates a cloud, but the cloud is popped from above by a pencil. Eddy lets go of the paper notes which were flying up, they hit the ground grabbing the scattered notes to find that all of reality has warped. Edd and Eddy realize that their setting is back to normal, but Ed seems to still think he can take off Sarah's mouth, pick up holes, etc. The episode ends with the Eds being chased by Sarah because he was trying to take off her mouth the second time as they did in the beyond law of physics world.

Trivia/Goofs

 * In this episode, Jimmy asks "Can't we all just get along?", which references Rodney King and his public statement during the riots following his trial.
 * At the beginning of the episode when Eddy kicks Ed out of his bed and says "Get outta my room!" he's seen with 4 toes, but all the other characters have 3.
 * Double D questioned Eddy if he ate the sun again, but he only took a small bite out of it.
 * The checkerboard street that the Eds disappear on looks very similar to Cartoon Network's old logo.
 * Edd broke the fourth wall by saying "An original scene transition, interesting." when he sees a checkerboard scene transition changing to the next scene.
 * The episode has been a fan favorite due to its crazy, mixed up storyline, and the infamous line "Hello, Light."
 * In this episode, it is revealed that Edd can write with his left and right hands, meaning he's ambidextrous.
 * The episode never explains what happened to the Eds between the time they went to the crazy world and when they are catching the papers on the street.
 * After Rolf pulls Wilfred (or another pig) out of Gertrude's chicken coop, as the scene pans back to the coop (already taken apart by the Eds), if you look closely, you will notice that Ed's body cannot be seen through the screen of the chicken coop.
 * In the first shot, where Rolf goes over to Gertrude's pen, it has all its walls; Then after the scene goes back to the chicken coop, one wall is missing, while Edd is holding the roof, and Eddy is holding another piece of wood, presumably from either the back or the side.
 * It's possible that Double D reads and subscribes to "Intellectual Discoveries" magazine.
 * When Ed asks "Eddy, why is someone in the kitchen with Dinah?", he is referencing a line from the song I've Been Working on the Railroad; "Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah..."
 * When Ed asks "Eddy, why is someone in the kitchen with Dinah?", the closed captioning spells "Eddy" as "Eddie."
 * When Eddy takes Jimmy's outline his retainer's outline is still on his body even though it should be his entire outline taken off.
 * Although Ed ate Eddy's lava lamp in this episode, he has it again in later episodes. He may however have bought a new one in between this episode and the next episode.
