They were soon about to climb thestairs, until they were gone. Eddy asked Ed why his stairs are gone, Ed replies that his parents took them down because he was grounded. But that doesn't stop Eddy, he tells Ed to lean back on a gigantic pin, and launches Ed up. When Sarah finds out that Ed is gone she starts to blow a whistle and searches the house. Edd finally puts together a giant kite, and flies off with Ed and Eddy. Soon all the string rolls out, and they plow into Jimmy. When Sarah tells Ed that she's going to tell Mom, Edd reminds Eddy about the "Parental Ring" he mentioned to him earlier. But yet, the Eds find a way to communicate, by phones made by a wire hanger, a can and a sponge connected to strings, but they are broken up by Sarah, who pulls their strings together.

Trivia

 * It was never revealed why Ed was grounded in the first place.
 * When Double-D and Eddy are preparing to go down the laundry shoots, you can see Double-D's name on his, "Edward". However, in other episodes prior to this one, when Double-D wears a name tag or something with his full name on it, it reads "Eddward", with two D's.
 * How did Sarah and Jimmy go downstairs if there were no stairs, and how did they get back up?
 * Why didn't the Eds let go of their "phones" when Sarah started pulling on the strings? It would've saved themselves lots and lots of pain!
 * The scene where the Edds use the giant safety pin to hop up the missing stairwell was used as a bump for the channel when it still used the full "Cartoon Network" logo. The scene was extended to include the logo jumping in on the Eds after Eddy ((http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcWSJ0xXGkw))
 * The Elevation Boots in A Pinch to Grow an Ed were destroyed, in The Episode In Like Ed One of them were Repaired, but now they're destroyed again.
