A few days later, everything had returned to normal. Ed had even written a musical about his favorite comic book, Evil Tim. Eddy figured since Bowser was a flop that ended up being great, if they did Tim the same way (aside from the deranged Koopa writer), they would have more money!

Edd, on the other hand, was happy to learn the kids didn't know a thing about legal money terms, so he wasn't in trouble with them for trying out this whole thing in the first place, although he still felt guilty.

Right now, Jimmy was directing the chorus girls with Edd and Eddy. Edd hadn't yet patched things up with Nazz, but was hoping to.

(To the tune of "Prisoners of Love")

Girls: That Evil Tim
Beware of him
He will preform a curse

(Eddy: Tempo, ladies! Pick up the tempo!)
Girls: That Evil Tim

He looks real grim
(Edd: A little lighter on the feet!)
Girls: And then there's nothing worse
(Jimmy: Sing out, now! Let them hear you in the locker rooms!)

(Eddy: You want them to come out and beat us up?)
Girls: Oh, we'll just run and run

But he'll run, too
Oh, Evil Tim
How we fear you
That Evil Tim
Beware of him
'Cause we'll be running

(Eddy: Take it home! We open on Friday!))
Girls: We'll be running

We'll be running from Tim!
Eddy clapped wildly. "You did good! And we're gonna be rich!"

"What did you think, Ed?" Edd asked the writer.

"Gravy!"

"Next stop, Broadway!" cried Eddy.
Girls: Oh, Evil Tim, how we fear you!

Soon the girls and Jimmy were on stage in front of an audience that was hoping for something satirical, like last time...
Girls and Jimmy: That Evil Tim

Beware of him
He will preform a curse
That Evil Tim
He looks real grim
And then there's nothing worse
Oh, we'll just run and runBut he'll run, too
Oh, Evil Tim
How we fear you
That Evil Tim
Beware of him
'Cause we'll be running
We'll be running
We'll be running from Tim!
Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Tim!

Eddy sat down outside of camp and sighed deeply. This show had indeed been satirical on the otherwise gothic comic, but no one in the audience read it. Therefore, the jokes were lost. They had failed. "Well, at least we've got the money from last time, right?"

Edd stumbled over, beaten up and covered in lipstick marks. "Actually, no. I felt rather guilty about the scam, so I...gave back the money."

"You WHAT?"

Edd smiled. "But don't you see? We can only go up from here! Besides, everything's back to normal!"

"Yeah," Eddy said, also smiling, "and the story's over, anyway. You're right! We'll just keep on scamming!"

Ed burst out. "Optimism!" The three Eds gazed into the sunset over the campus where their camp was located. It was truly beautiful.
Eddy and Edd: Eddy and Edd

We used our heads
Back strolling around camp
Eddy and Edd
We're now ahead
We'll be on top to stay!
So when we take your money, never fear
A decent scam may soon be near
The cast is great
The script is swell
But this we're tellin' you, sirsIt's just no go, you got no show
Without the producers!

Ed, Edd, and Eddy: We'll never quit

Hit after hit
Stiff and steady
But always ready
Ed, Edd, Eddy
That's us!

Eds and Chorus: They're a trio of great scheming Eds

Edd: Thanks for coming to see our show
Nazz: Sad to tell you we've got to go
Ludwig: Grab your hat and head for the door
Jimmy and Sarah: In case you didn't notice, there ain't any more!
Lucy, Frida, Patty, Violet, Snoopy: If you like our show tell ev'ryone but...
Eddy: If you think it stinks, keep your big mouth shut!
Calvin and Hobbes: We're glad you came but we have to shout
Jason and Marcus: Adios

Bowser and Koopalings aside from Ludwig: Au revoir

Mario and Luigi: Wiedersehen

Charlie Brown, Linus, Rerun, Franklin, Schroder, Peppermint Patty, Marcie: Ta-ta-ta
Ed and Kankers (who are attacking him): Goodbye

Rolf, Kevin, Johnny: Get lost

Blue Paratroopa: Get out! It's over!

There's the fic. That was a lot of fun to write. I considered having Edd and Eddy duet in "There's Nothing Like Some Kids For Scamming" to the tune of "Nothing Like a Show On Broadway" but I was too lazy to write it. Maybe in a future story...stay tuned for...The Calvin at Camp Muppet Movie!
