May I have this Ed?

"May I Have this Ed?" is the season 6 season premier episode of Ed, Edd n Eddy, in which the Eds attend their first school dance.

Plot
With the Peach Creek Jr. High's dance looming large on Friday night, everyone is feeling a little anxious, especially the boys, after all not only are you expected to invite a girl to go with you but you've got to actually dance with her too. So in a world of adolescent awkwardness, both Ed and Double D should, at least according to Eddy, be grateful that they have him around to help them out, or rather they have his brother in the shape of a definitely out-of-date date book. Not one to let grass grow under his feet and ignoring the protesting wails of his friends, Eddy quickly embarks on a pre-dance practice run that sees his mom's rather ratty old dressmaking mannequin transformed into every boys 'dance with me' dream date. Of course, it doesn't all quite go as planned as Eddy himself may be bursting with confidence (at least in his own attic), but Ed's charming cheese fixation and Double D's tendency to faint away at the first whiff of 'do you wanna dance?' rejection pressure, pretty much scuppers his grand scheme of causing all round envy. Luckily though, being Eddy, he has other plans up his sleeve to ensure the Eds make an impact at the dance later on.

And so to the dance itself and as usual it's a case of boys on one side, minding the punchbowl and girls on the other waiting for something fun to happen. So as Jonny devours the nibbles and Rolf watches all from the safety of his 'don't touch me' puffer fish costume, Nazz is wondering why nobody has asked her to dance as the usually confident Kevin seems positively scared of her. So far for Nazz the dance is just boring and so it's not hard to understand why the arrival of the Eds - sporting an assortment of ill-matched fake facial hair perks her up a bit, after all, maybe Double D will ask her to dance, if he manages to evade Sarah's expectant smile that is. And in actual fact it's not long before Nazz and Double D are dancing and causing a bit of a stir, not least among the indignant Eddy and the jealous Kanker Sisters, seems there's trouble ahoy as usual Peach Creek Jr. High got destroyed, and Ed is happy about that. Too bad tomorrow is Saturday.
