Ed, Edd n Eddy - "Run for Your Ed"

Now, let's review the episode that came on after "A Case of Ed," and surprisingly, aired the exact same month of February in 2004. It's called, "Run for Your Ed," A take on the old saying "Run for your life!" You can run, but you can't hide from this review.

 Late at night, The Kanker Sisters noticed that someone has broken into their kitchen, and not only that, but they also took their family air loom, the ship in a bottle. Without bothering to call the police, the Kankers decide the next day to wreak havoc on the innocent people of the cul-de-sac of Peach Creek, causing Rolf to hide in his cellar. Meanwhile, Ed has the ship in the bottle stuck on his finger after his sleepwalking stroll. And yes, Ed was the one behind the damage of the Kankers' kitchen, but the trio doesn't have time to worry about that, they have to try to get the bottle of of Ed's swollen finger, while the Kankers terrorize the city. How will this be resolved? Watch and find out.

One thing I should mention is that the Ed Edd n Eddy wiki refers to it as the Destruction of Rethink Avenue. I would also like to point out that this episode kind of reminds me of the 9/11 terrorist attacks from 2001, and strangely enough, this episode came on a few years after that happened. Strange, isn't it? Also, I would like to point out that Kevin never bothered to even beat up the Eds once in this episode, I guess he was still grounded for reasons unknown in "A Case of Ed," but both these episodes are episodic and they belong in their own separate category. At least, the city has been evacuated. I would have to think that the damages would've cost hundreds and thousands of dollars to repair.

Overall, this episode has all of the characters intact, and they all get something to do, and even Sarah knows how to stop the attacks, simply by telling the Kankers where the ship in the bottle is. You know, for a spoiled brat, she knows how to handle situations like this. But either way, this episode is pretty funny, Lee and Marie's lines in the kitchen are quite hilarious as well as their reaction to their ship in a bottle being stolen. The only people who never got injured during their rampage were the three Eds and Rolf who was stuck in the cellar.

All in all, the Kankers did get their ship in a bottle back, and three days had passed, and Rolf still hasn't come out of the cellar.

Watch it if you run across it.
