My Fair Ed

"My Fair Ed" is the 16th episode of Season 3 and the 68th episode of Ed, Edd n Eddy. In this episode, Edd attempts to remodel his friends with the help of some bandages and broccoli.

Plot
As if it weren't enough for poor Edd to bear - having to put up with his two best buddies going through his grocery bags with a fine-toothed and critical comb but now their jarring and ill-mannered behavior is churning its way through every flower bed and backyard in the Cul-de-Sac. Ed and Eddy have found a way to spoil just about everyone's day and as one, the kids agree that something has to be done about it. Unfortunately for Edd, in their eyes at least he's just the man for the task… or else!

Luckily for Eddy and Ed though, Edd is something of an expert when it comes to table etiquettes, it's just a shame that they don't appreciate his good intentions. Edd, however is one step ahead of them this time and with the help of mother's soup and a few strips of sticking plaster he soon has the unruly duo under control ... or so he thinks. After Eddy leaves to put his bowl and spoon away, Edd stops him and states he better not do anythin mischievous in his kitchen, but Eddy denies that and states that is all in the past. Ed finishes his food and the two of them leave to clean up their dishes and do more good deeds. Edd is well chuffed, it's a joy to see Eddy and Ed have become model citizens, kind, courteous and very helpful ... or are they? Because it soon becomes apparent that they're not behaving quite as he'd expected, in fact they're actually worse! Poor Edd laments, he shouldn't have meddled with his friends' mucky manners but his anxiety soon turns to anger when they confess they've been having him on all along. Edd wants his revenge, it's time to bring out the broccoli! Ed and Eddy run away, and Ed devastates Kevin's Bike in the process. Better hide from Kevin, Edd! (Edd pleads for mercy while hiding in his house with Kevin having one of his bike pedals behind his back to hurt Edd)
