I Am Curious Ed

"I Am Curious Ed" is the 6th episode of Season 5 and the 108th episode of Ed, Edd n Eddy. In this episode, Sarah and Jimmy try to find out where babies come from because their fish had babies.

Plot
Jimmy and Sarah are busy playing until they found the fish in their bowl had babies. This raises a question that every kid wonders at some time though: Where do babies come from? They both go to the other kids and later on the Eds to get a honest answer.

Getting a straightforward and honest answer, however, proves harder than Jimmy and Sarah had hoped because the question itself seems to provoke either giggle fits or scorn in most of the other kids. First, they asked Kevin where babies come from. Nazz blushed and laughed at the same time as she never heard of it. Kevin says they grow on trees like apples. Next, they go to Jonny. He puts Jimmy and Sarah in the eggs and put Plank on top of them. When Jonny made Jimmy eat a worm, Sarah beats him up and they move on. After all that, they go to Rolf. He tells a story about babies and makes Jimmy and Sarah leave. In Eddy's case, if you didn't clean out your belly button, your baby would be gross, which scared Jimmy and Edd comes into scene. It's beginning to look as if the little kids' question is not going to be answered but thankfully Edd - or Buzzy Double Bee comes to their rescue with his hive full of answers, workers, and larval sacs. Double Bee doesn't get it all his own way though because his educational party is soon crashed because it's only about bees rather than humans. Ed says that babies come from stork dressing as a stork who's determined to prove that he knows the real truth about where babies come from. Eddy says that they both don't know where babies come from and he does. Ed is dumb, but as Eddy soon finds out the answer he delivers is a a big uplift. Ed then proves to Edd that babies come by storks by grasping Eddy with his teeth, flies to a house and drops him down the chimney. After he dropped down the chimney, Eddy cries and Ed says he is crying like a baby and left him in the house he dropped Eddy in.
