Pop Goes the Ed

"Pop Goes the Ed" is a Season 1 episode of Ed, Edd n Eddy, in which the Eds go to a sprinkler party at Nazz's house.

Plot
As the day begins, the Eds are attempting to bring down a beehive, only to be chased by the angered bees. That matter is soon put to rest as the guys concentrate more on the hot weather. After so many attempts to try to cool off, they give up and pass out under the hot sun. Kevin rides by on his bike and sees them dying on the sandbox in the heat, only to ditch them and inform them about Nazz's sprinkler party, to which he claims the Eds are uninvited. However, This doesn't stop the Eds from going, as Eddy finds this a perfect way to socialize. He then insists they all wear three ultra tight swimsuits from his brother. When they show up at the party, Kevin instigates a fight with Eddy, but Nazz walks by and takes their minds off it. When Eddy suggests to the other Ed's that they mingle with a couple of the kids, Ed and Edd share some rather disturbing stories about what programs they saw one time, frightening Jimmy. When it's time to dance, everybody gets their groove on. But when the Eds hit the dance floor, the kids all sit down for lunch. The Eds try to impress them by performing a trick. But no one pays attention. And it's a good thing too because their bathing suits pop and fly off everywhere. Everyone else soon goes back to dancing, without noticing that the Eds are nude from the waist down. The Eds run quickly into the pool, where they are forced to remain for the rest of the day, which means they miss out on eating cake, sitting around a fire, and sleeping over. When everyone is inside sleeping, the cold and water-absorbed Eds sneak out, only to hit another beehive and get chased by bees on the way home.
