The Bet
Habit: Gravy consumption. Failure: None. Place: Was the winner of the bet. He won $1.25. Habit: Yelling. Failure: He shouted at Edd when he thought that Ed already blew his chance at winning (by making him dive into a vat of what appeared to be gravy), but Ed burst his bubble by saying the gravy was really butterscotch pudding. Since Eddy yelled before they found out it was butterscotch, he was the last one elminated. Place: 2nd Habit: Meat consumption. Failure: Eddy tempted him to eat meat by eating it himself, he eventually gave into the temptation. Place: 3rd Habit: Taking orders from Plank. Failure: Eddy let Plank give him orders and Jonny got jealous. Place: 4th Habit: Using challenging words. Failure: Eddy was crossing out all the challenging words in a dictionary and Edd couldn't take it. Place: 5th Habit: Calling the Eds "dorks". Failure: Eddy harassed him to no end (shooting him with paper-balls and splattering mash potato in his face) until he snapped. Place: 6th

Trivia/Goofs

 * The names of some of the people who work on the show are on the lockers next to where Jimmy & Sarah keep their stuff. Along with the two little kids there's Bonni, Kylie, Jin, Zoe, Vinnie, Logan, Dan & Sue. The lineup includes Bonni Reid (color designer), Kylie Ellis (production manager), Zoe Borroz (production assistant) and Dan Sioui (producer).
 * Eddy can't pronounce or understand the word "unconscious" again referencing the episode Ed or Tails when Eddy was ordering Edd to pronounce it for him while questioning Jimmy at the Rent-a-Clown scam.
 * This marks the first and only appearance of the Peach Creek Community Pool.
 * Problems without their habits:
 * Eddy: No problem without his habit, except it annoys him a couple times (though he does have one very close call with Sarah)
 * Edd: Finds it harder to think of one syllable words
 * Ed: Dry lower eyelids and withdrawal symptoms
 * Kevin: Irritation from Eddy annoying him
 * Rolf: Incredibly weak; unable to open doors or bite a celery stalk
 * Jonny: Not thinking straight and begging others to boss him around
 * Ed once again breaks the fourth wall by saying to the audience "Don't touch that dial, kids!"
 * We learn that Ed is allergic to butterscotch pudding. The symptoms for him are mainly itchiness and swelling of the skin.
 * The title card shows a person opening a coat filled with a dictionary, (reflecting Edd's habit) a box of meat, (reflecting Rolf's habit) and gravy (reflecting Ed's habit). The person's clothes resembles Eddy's clothes, and the opening of the coat and the things in it reflect how Eddy tempted the others to give in to their bad habits in the episode. These three things are three of the four tangible objects in the bet (the only other one is Plank).
 * Ed's gravy addiction is a lot stronger and a lot more noticeable in this episode, causing aggressiveness and hallucinations.
 * When Ed pops his head out of the butterscotch pudding, some splashes onto Edd, but after the camera cuts away and then comes back he looks normal.
 * Despite the bet that Edd has to go for 1 day using one syllable words, he said a two syllable word (Eddy), although this may be because he wasn't allowed to say complex words and the majority of the complex words he says are more than one syllable long, even though he said every syllable for itself (Ed and Dy).
 * There is a possible reference to famed novelist Stephen King. When Eddy is standing on the stack of books so that he can look in to the library, two of the books are labeled "Tower" and "Stand" which is a possible reference to two of King's books: the Dark Tower series and The Stand.
 * Rolf wagered his love for mammal flesh, meaning that he could have still eaten fish and poultry other than chicken. Then again, Rolf wouldn't be happy with only fish and poultry and wanted mammal meat.
 * When Ed is walking to the diving board, he does not have the gravy mix in his underwear. It suddenly appears when he dives into the pool.
 * For some reason, neither Sarah nor Jimmy were at the pool. Possibly this is because they are not in the same class as the other kids.
 * Nazz, Sarah, Jimmy, and the Kankers didn't partake in the bet. Kevin asked Nazz if she wanted to join in, but she declined. Sarah, Jimmy, and the Kankers were not on the same bus.
 * Interestingly, Sarah and Jimmy are on the same bus as the Eds in the episode Run Ed Run. This is probably a continuity error.
 * Now we know Ed carries gravy around anywhere. There's gravy in his shoes, his chest (with small bowls) and what he calls "gravycakes" in his jacket.
 * No scams took place in the episode.
 * The Kankers do not appear in this episode.
 * Running gag: Eddy trying to get all the other boys (except Jimmy) to do their annoying habit by tempting them.
 * Eddy called Ed, "Ahab", at the beginning of the episode, which is a reference to the book Moby Dick, of which the most famous character is Captain Ahab.
 * The Fun With Butterscotch Pudding Tuesday event could prove this whole episode took place on a Tuesday.
 * When Edd holds up Ed's winnings, he says its $1.25, but if the coins were quarters, then the amount is far greater than $1.25. Though this could be a collection of other coins along with quarters.
 * Veggie is misspelled as vegge.
