Flashback episode that features alternate stories. The Eds try to make their way back to the place all the flashbacks began. In this journey many things are explained, including: Plank's chip (Plank got stuck in Rolf's teeth), and why Jimmy wears a retainer (the Eds tricked him into eating a bowling pin when he thought it was a cream horn).

The power goes out, and everyone's wondering what happened. Ed starts a panic when he blames the blackout on "mole mutants" (a parody of the C.H.U.D.s and The Mole People), and Eddy tries to cash in. Meanwhile, Rolf enlists Kevin in jump-starting the power grid, and Edd overcomes his fear of the unsanitary sewers to conduct his own investigation.

Edd tries to take his morning shower, but blunders into the bathroom to find it is undergoing repair. He desperately tries to borrow a shower from one of his neighbors, but as Edd gets progressively dirtier in his quest to find a place to bathe, he eventually goes off the deep end, which means the more nobody would help Edd, the more dirtier he'd be.

Eddy tries to convince the kids of the cul-de-sac (and himself) that it is still summer, even though it is actually the day before school starts. At school, the Eds find they've been assigned separate home rooms, and must negotiate with the Kanker Sisters if they want to spend the school year together.

Sarah and Jimmy discover Jimmy's fish have babies and try to learn where they come from, but when they ask the other kids about it, they keep getting different answers. They eventually turn to the Eds for help, but even they can't agree on the subject of human reproduction.

Eddy plans to break out of school, enlisting the help of the other Eds and Jonny.

Edd is embarrassed to no end after losing to Ed in the annual spelling bee. All the other kids think he's lost his touch, and turn to Ed for help with their homework (even though Eddy insists they pay for the privilege). Meanwhile, Jonny seeks revenge on Nazz after she eliminated Plank from the Spelling Bee for not spelling a word clearly.

When Rolf goes to his family reunion, he puts Ed in charge of his animals.

After Eddy reads "Eddy is a no neck chump" on the wall, he goes undercover as "Carl" to find out who wrote that. While he's with the kids, he is surprised that they actually treat him with respect. Eddy decides to ditch Ed and Edd and hang with the other kids, but Edd is determined to get him back.

Eddy starts publishing a newspaper full of lies about the other kids, and sells them for cash.

When Eddy discovers that Kevin has Trypanophobia, he takes advantage of his fear and tells the school that it's booster shot day.

Due to another scam failure, Jimmy doesn't believe in fairy tales anymore, bringing him in a sad emotional state which won't go away. Sarah demands the Ed's to fix this before sundown. Meanwhile, Rolf thinks everyone is after his backpack full of baloney.

Eddy tries to prove that the Urban Rangers are a bunch of phonies by challenging Rolf to the most difficult badge- The Hairy Chest of Resilience Badge.

Peach Creek's football team must play a game against Lemon Brook, but the team is hopeless. Nazz thinks its due to low team spirit, so she decides to make Ed the mascot. During the game, Eddy becomes jealous that the audience is cheering for Ed, not the football team, so Eddy attempts to create a mascot of his own.

Jonny invites the Ed's to the Arbor Day party. Eddy hopes that the party will have all the kids there in attempt to boost his popularity, but his hopes are crushed when he discovers nobody else went.

The Eds, Kevin, Rolf, and Jonny all make bets who can put off their annoying habits the longest. Eddy must stop talking in a loud voice, Ed cannot have any gravy, Double D must stop talking using complicated words (words with more than one syllable), Johnny must go on without Plank, Kevin has to stop calling the Eds "dorks", and Rolf must stop eating meat. The winner will win $1.25.

Eddy can move into his big brother's room if he brings home a good picture for his mother. Kevin distracts Eddy when the picture is taken, resulting in an ugly picture. Kevin decides to take advantage of this and shows Eddy's embarrassing picture to everyone in the school.

Due to an argument between Eddy and Sarah about bus seating, she tricks Ed into protecting his friends from the falling sky. Edd and Eddy can't talk Ed out of it, but they make several attempts to catch the bus and get to the Jawbreaker factory.

Eddy isn't allowed to go to Kevin's monster truck marathon party. The Eds discover a book stating that Eddy's ancestors founded Peach Creek, and Eddy attempts to use that history to lure the kids away from Kevin's party.

Edd accidentally hurts Lee Kanker, making everyone believe he resorts to violence. He then makes mistakes during school hours which causes some of the kids to be hurt or injured. When all of the cul-de-sac (save for Eddy) is turned against Edd, it is up to Jimmy to restore his former reputation.
