Mac was laughing hard when on the swings of the playground, being pushed by Ed, who had recovered from sickness from eating too many pies, two days ago.
"Higher Ed!" Mac laughed.
Ed giggled.
"Ok, Mac!" Ed said as he does so.
Mac giggles while being in the swings pushed by Ed.
"This is fun!" Mac said.
"Yeah!" Ed cheered.
While Mac and Ed were playing at the playground together in the afternoon, Double D and a board Eddy watched at the playground's entrance.
"Aww, look at them, Eddy!" Double D said.
"Snore!" Eddy said, bored.
"Ready for a ride Mac?" Ed said, once he and Mac are done swinging.
"Ready, Ed!" he replied.
"Olley oop!" Ed said as he picks Mac up and puts him on his shoulders. Ed then carries Mac who is laughing and enjoying his time playing with Ed.
"I'm the king of the world!" Mac cheered, while Ed laughed and giggled.
"Isn't it sweet, Eddy!" Double D said while watching it, "Ed is being a sweet, fun older brother to Mac!"
"Bounce! Bounce! Bounce!" Ed cheered as he hops around like a kangaroo with Mac in his jacket like a joey in his pocket.
"What an eyesore!" Eddy muttered, "How come Mac doesn't see me as a brother?"
"Well Eddy," Double D said, "he kind of did! I mean he did help you with your scam on that Artie costume this past weekend and it gave us money and jawbreakers! Remember?"
"We could've used that stupid costume for another scam, a children's show!" Eddy continues his complaining, "But it's all destroyed! He could've also agreed on my idea!"
"Mac has the right to decide on his own as he now sees us as friends and big brothers to him now, Eddy!" Double D exclaimed.
Eddy rolls his eyes in response.
"I'm a kangaroo, just a furry and soft kangaroo!" Ed sang as he continues happing with Mac in his pocket while laughing.
"This is fun!" Mac cheered, "You know Ed! You're more like a big fun brother to me than Terrence!"
"Aww!" Ed said as he stops and takes Mac from out of his pocket, "Come here my little Mac!"
And that's when Ed gives Mac a big hug as he giggles.
"I love Mac, guys!" Ed said happily as he continues hugging him, "Soft and cuddly like mash potatoes! Yum!"
"Very thoughtful of you indeed, Ed!" Double D said as he walked to the two boys.
During this, Eddy hears the voice of Jonny 2x4 from nearby, giggling. He then runs while exiting the playground and enters the entrance of the lane. He hides behind the trash cans of the lane's entrance and sees Jonny walking by, carrying a jar of honey with Plank in it.
"Boy," Jonny said, "you've got a real sweet tooth, huh Plank?"
Eddy notices this while watching, seeing the jar of honey Jonny's carrying. This gives Eddy an idea for a scam.
"Honey!" he said quietly.
Then he hears Double D and Mac's voices in the playground and then runs back to the playground. By the time Eddy returns, he sees Double D and Mac sitting on the grassy ground, looking at a flower with a bee on it in amazement.
"You see Mac!" Double D said to him while marveling at the pollenating bee, "This bee here is collecting nectar from the flower using its tongue called a proboscis!"
"Really?" Mac asked, "Why?"
"Because that's their main source of food and energy!" Edd continues, "You see, once the bee collected the nectar and added them to their stomach, the stomach breaks the nectar down into simple sugars. Then they store them into the honeycomb and turn the nectar into honey by drying them out using a warm breeze from their wings!"
During their conversation, the bee flies away from the honey while Mac and Double D watch in delight.
"And that's where the bee is heading!" Double D continues, "Its heading back to its beehive to store the nectar to form honey!"
"Wow!" Mac said in marvel with his sock-headed friend, "That's beautiful Double D!"
"It certainly is Mac!" Double D said as he pats and stroke Mac's thick, long brown hair, "And the bee would also help carry pollen from one flower to the next that allows the plants to reproduce their own offspring! It's a partnership that's been going on for over 100 million years through a process called coevolution!"
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!" Ed said while pretending to be a bee and walking to a flower, "I am a cute little bumblebee, and I will make honey out of you flower!"
Ed giggles, while Eddy bursts in.
"Yeah!" Eddy said, "Well I just had something buzzing up in my head, boys!"
"What?" Ed asked, "Did a bug flew into your mouth again, Eddy?"
"No stupid!" Eddy replied, "We're going to collect honey and sell it to all the kids in the Cul-de-sac for dough!"
"Honey?" Mac asked.
"May I ask," Double D asked, "where do we collect honey from, Eddy?"
"Oh, we're going to find where honey comes from for money, Double D!" Eddy said enthusiastically as he departs the playground, "Get it? Honey? Money? It rhymes!"
"Always with those rhymes!" Double D sighed as he, Ed, and Mac followed.
"Yummy! Yummy! In my tummy!" Ed said happily, while laughing.
The bees swarming around their honey hive hanging on a tree branch made loud buzzing sounds. The Eds and Mac stare at it while in a bush after searching for a beehive to collect honey for their scam.
"Bingo!" Eddy said.
Eddy then turns to his three friends.
"Ok boys!" he said them, "Now let's get in there to collect the honey!"
"I don't know about this, Eddy!" Mac said, concerned, "This sounds really dangerous and risky, don't you think?!"
"Yes!" Double D said, nervously, "We could get stung by those angry bees, trying to defend their nest!"
"So," Eddy replied, "we'll just figure out a way to get the honey without getting stung by bees, Sockhead!"
Eddy then turns back to the beehive.
"Hmmm!" he said, "Any ideas we can use to collect honey for our scam, boys?"
His friends begin to wonder about this.
The bees continue to buzz around their nest, hanging in the branch of a tree. Then, something is approaching the beehive: a boiling pan duct taped to an elongated measuring stick and then taped to the end of a baseball bat, being lifted by Double D who is struggling with the weight and pressure of the pole. Ed, Mac, and an impatient Eddy watches behind. They created a large pole that ends in a boiling pan to nudge the beehive, to have some honey coming out with in and as a way for the Eds and Mac to avoid getting stung by angry bees. Unfortunately, their pole is not far and high enough to get the honey from the hive.
"What's taking ya, Double D?" Eddy asked, irritated.
"It appears that this pole we made, Eddy," Double D replied, "is not long and tall enough to get to the beehive to collect the honey!"
Eddy facepalms in annoyance.
"Honey I'm too short!" Ed said.
"Then we're going to need a boost!" Eddy suggests, "Let's build a tower!"
"Tower?" Mac asked.
"Ed!" Eddy said.
"Got it!" Ed said as he grabs Double D and puts him on his shoulders, "Olley-oop!"
"Oof!" Double D said as he lands on Ed. Then Ed grabs Eddy and throws him on top of Double D.
"Ouch!" Double D cried by the impact.
"Careful Ed!" Eddy said while sitting on Double D's shoulder and then turns his head to Mac, "Mac! Get the pole!"
Mac gets the pole.
"Ok!" he said, "Got it!"
Ed then grabs Mac with his red T-shirt with white sleeves with black spots and throws up the top of the tower, landing on Eddy's shoulder.
"Here's Mac, Eddy!" Ed said.
Once their tower is set, Eddy turns to the bee's nest.
"Alright then!" Eddy said, "You got the pole up there, Mac?"
"Yep!" Mac replied.
"Ok, boys!" Eddy said, "Lets head there and get that honey! Ed?"
"Roger!" Ed said and began to walk to the beehive while carrying his friends with Mac carrying the pole on top.
"Oh dear!" Double D said as he struggles with the pressure of carrying Eddy and Mac on top.
As Ed walks while carrying his friends, he nearly trips on a rock and almost drops his friends.
"Hey!" Mac cried.
"Careful Ed!" Double D cried.
"Stand still, Lumpy!" Eddy roared.
But thankfully, the four boys still stand in a tower still and continue walking towards the beehive.
"Woops!" Ed said, "Gotcha!"
The tower of Eds and Mac stops as they felt that they were getting close enough to the beehive.
"Ok Mac!" Eddy said, "Unleash the pole and get as much honey as we can!"
Mac begins to reach out the beehive with the boiling pan-meter stick-baseball bat made pole, but unfortunately, the hive is only an inch away from the poll. He tries moving a little further with no success.
"Now what?" Eddy asked, annoyed.
"I can't reach it Eddy!" Mac said, "It's too far out!"
Eddy moans in irritation.
"Ed!" he said to him, "Move a little closer!"
"Ok, Eddy!" Ed said and so he makes a few steps closer to the hive. Unfortunately, by the time he stops, he accidentally steps on some dandelions, causing flakes of them to fly around the tower.
"This is going to be sweet!" Eddy said enthusiastically, "We're going to make so much dough out of this scam once we collect this honey!"
"Are we having sweets Eddy?" Ed asked when several pieces of the dandelions float to Ed's nose. Ed sniffs them, but it causes his nose to tickle. He begins to sneeze.
"Ah!" Ed said.
His friends noticed this.
"Oh dear!" Double D cried.
"Now what?" Eddy said annoyed.
"Ahh!" Ed said as prepares to sneeze.
"Uh oh!" Mac said.
"He's going to sneeze!" Double D cried.
"AAAHHHHHH!" Ed said as he was about to make a big sneeze.
"NO ED! NO!" his friends yell, but it was too late as Ed finally made a big sneeze.
"CHHOOOOO!" he sneezed, and this causes the tower of four boys to fall and collapse by the ground under the beehive, while the pole had fallen and landed on the ground, breaking it into pieces. The Eds and Mac continue laying on the ground from their failed attempt to exploit honey from the bee's nest.
"Blesh you, Ed!" Double D said.
"Real smooth, Ed!" Eddy said annoyed.
"Uh, guys!" Mac cried, pointed to the beehive.
The four boys turned and saw the swarms of angry bees flying towards them, defending their hive, when they noticed that they're a threat. The Eds and Mac panicked.
"RUN!" Eddy yelled and the Eds and Mac ran away screaming with the angry bees pursuing them.
After driving the Eds and Mac away, the bees return to their hive, flying and buzzing around it in the tree branch. Then, moments later, something approaches them: a giant yellow-white flower made of various metallic items being painted. Then another that's pink and yellow, another that's purple and pink, and another that's red and orange. Each of these giant fake flowers are being pushed and brought in by Eddy, Mac, Double D, and Ed to lure the bees out of their nest and get to the "flowers" to collect nectar for honey, so that the boys can exploit the honey from the hive. They also added refreshment sprays on them to make them smell like actual flowers.
"You sure this could work, Mac?" Eddy asked, skeptical.
"Well yeah, Eddy!" Mac replied, "I've learned about it when I was in school!"
"Yes!" Double D said, "And that's a way to attract bees to help pollinate and reproduce into other flowers, Eddy!"
"That's stupid!" Eddy said, unimpressed.
"I am pretty as a flower, guys!" Ed said.
The other two Eds and Mac stared in silence, confused. Then, some of the bees begin to fly out of the nest and towards one of the boys' giant "flowers". The Eds and Mac hide themselves in one of the bushes and watch. The bees flew into Mac's giant "flower".
"It's working, Eds!" Mac said while seeing this.
"Still not enough, Mac!" Eddy said, unhappily.
Then, several more bees come over to Eddy's, then many more to Double D's, and the last ones to Ed's.
"Ha!" Eddy said when seeing this, "They all fell for it! What saps!"
Eddy laughs.
"Bees are so stupid!" Ed said.
"Please don't insult these animals, guys!" Double D said.
"Yeah!" Mac said, "It's animal cruelty!"
"Yeah, whatever!" Eddy said, impatiently, "Let's go and collect our honey for cash!"
The Eds and Mac exit the bush and ran to the beehive. Along the way, Ed stops and looks at the bees in their giant fake flowers.
"Cool!" Ed said while staring at the "flower" and bees.
"Ed!" Eddy said, "Come on, will ya!"
"Coming, Eddy!" Ed said as he runs and chuckles, but accidentally kicks a pebble, which flew to the "flower" and hits it, causing it to fall and hit another giant "flower", then a third, and finally fourth, crashing and destroying them like dominoes.
Meanwhile, the Eds and Mac stare at the abandoned hive, unaware of what had just happened behind them.
"This is great!" Eddy said in excitement, "Now that we've got rid of these pesky bees, we're going to get us much honey as we can for our scam! We're going to be rich I tell ya!"
Eddy turns to his friends.
"Ed!" he says, "Give me lift up will ya!"
"Got it, Eddy!" Ed responds and grabs and puts Eddy on his shoulders. As they did, little did the Eds and Mac noticed that they bees, after discovering that the giant "flowers" that were destroyed are fakes, are flying towards them in a huge swarm in retaliation.
"Why is the hive buzzing, guys?" Ed asked.
"Loudest hive I've ever heard!" Eddy said.
Double D and Mac turned and saw the angry bees approaching them.
"Um… guys?" Double D said in fright.
"Uh oh!" Mac said.
"What?" Eddy asked, while Ed turned and saw the approaching bees.
The bees begin to close in on the four boys.
"RUN FELLOWS!" Double D screamed as he runs for his life.
"LET'S GET OUT OF HERE!" Mac yelled as he followed.
Ed screams and follows, causing Eddy to fall from him on the ground.
"Now what?" Eddy said as he got up and then saw the angry swarm of bees flying towards him. Eddy screams and runs with his three friends as the angry bees continue to chase the screaming Eds and Mac across the field.
After driving Mac and the Eds away again from their second failed attempt to exploit their honey, the angry bees returned to their nest, buzzing around their hive and a few of them flew to collect nectar from flowers. While they were doing so, they heard a loud thunderous sound. The bees begin to react in fear. Nearby, the Eds and Mac had already returned to the hive and this time, Eddy brought a kitchen pan and a garbage can and used them to create sounds of thunder to scare the bees off. Mac brings a colander, Double D brings a ladder, and Ed brings two bubblers of water. They are using these to create a rainstorm to drive the bees away from the hive so that they can take the honey.
"Ok boys!" Eddy said, "Let's start making rain!"
He then uses the kitchen pan to hit the garbage can to make sounds of thunder to terrify them. The bees begin to respond to the "thunderstorm". He then turns to his friends.
"Now!" Eddy said.
Double D puts up the ladder towards the hive and Mac walks up with the colander. Ed hands Double D one of the water bubblers. Double D, being physically weak, struggles with the amount of weight of the bubbler while walking up to the top of the ladder.
"Now start pouring!" Eddy said.
So, under Eddy's demand, Double D, while struggling the weight, pours water from the bubbler into the colander carried by Mac, creating a rainstorm as water comes out of the holes from the colander and towards the hives. The bees begin to respond to the "rain" and flew away in fright. Eddy notices this.
"Woo-hoo!" Eddy said, "It's working boys! They fell for it! Now let's get our loot!"
As Double D and Mac continues making rain, while Ed and Eddy begin to figure out ways to exploit the honey, little did they know that not every bee was in the hive as a few of them are returning to their hive after collecting nectar from the flowers. When the few bees returned, they noticed Mac and the Eds are doing something to their hive, and they prepare to defend their home and kind.
Double D and Mac are still creating rain to distract the bees for Ed and Eddy to rob their honey when suddenly, Mac felt something sharp and stung him in his right arm.
"OW!" he yelled, which causes him to drop the colander on the ground and hit Double D. The collisions cause the two boys, the water bubbler, and the ladder to fall on the grassy ground, with the bubbler hitting the other bubbler and causing them to spill and leak all the water out.
Eddy and Ed turned to the commotion.
"Now what?" Eddy asked annoyed.
"I've gotten stung, Eddy!" Mac said as he and Double D get up and recover from their fall.
"I thought we got rid of the bees, Mac!" Eddy said.
Then they all turned and saw a few bees flying around, buzzing behind, including the one that stung Mac.
"Um… Eddy," Double D said concerned, "I don't think we got rid of every bee!"
Then, all the other bees that were driven away by the "rain" return and prepare to retaliate the three boys.
"Uh oh!" Ed said in horror when seeing the huge swarm of bees, "RUN AWAY!"
Ed runs away screaming, while Double D and Mac follow. Eddy remains alone with his kitchen pan and garbage can he could use as a weapon.
"Yeah, well!" Eddy said while facing the bees' wrath, "I still got this to make thunder!"
He manages to make loud thunderous sounds to scare the bees off using the two metallic objects, but even that won't work as the angry swarm of bees outnumber Eddy.
"Mommy!" Eddy said in fright and that's when he flees for his life as the bee swarm follows.
"Feeling better from your bee sting on your right arm, Mac?" Double D asked.
"Yeah!" Mac replied, "I'm fine! Thanks for adding sting ointment on it, Double D!"
The Eds and Mac are hiding behind a bush near the beehive and after three failed attempts on exploiting honey from the hive for their scam, they made a new plan: have Ed dress up and act like a bear to scare off or drive the bees away from the hive as a distraction.
Outside of the bush, a chuckling Ed, dressed entirely as a soft, brown, furry bear stands in the direction of the beehive. Eddy watches by.
"Eddy," Double D asked, "are you sure this idea of yours could work?"
"Relax Double D!" Eddy replied, "Ed here will be a perfect bear to distract those bees so we can collect the honey, huh big guy?"
"I am so cute and cuddly like a teddy bear, Eddy!" Ed said.
"Ok Ed!" Eddy said, enthusiastically, "Get out there and be a bear to show those bees whose boss, so we can get our honey for our scam!"
"Ok Eddy!" Ed said as Eddy runs back to the bush with his friends.
"I am a bear beware!" Ed said as he walks towards the beehive, while his friends behind the bush watches.
"Be careful out there Ed!" Mac said.
"That's our Winnie the Ed!" Eddy said.
"Our lovable teddy bear of ours!" Double D said.
"More so than those jerks, Burple Bear and Sunset Junction!" Mac said.
Ed, in his bear outfit, continues to walk towards the beehive.
"Hiya bees!" Ed said, "I am so furry and so soft!"
"Act like a bear, stupid!" Eddy said, silently.
"Oh!" Ed responded, while understanding what he was told to do, "Ok! I am a bear! Rarrrrr!"
He continues walking to the beehive, acting savage and growling like a bear.
"Picnic time for Teddy Bears, bees!" Ed roared, "Rarrrr! Rarrr! I'm a hungry bear!"
Ed in his bear costume continues acting like a bear as he approaches.
"Rarrrr!" he continues his acting, "Prepare to meet your doom, bees!"
Then all the bees from their hive noticed their threat and flew towards Ed.
"I will terminate you, bees!" Ed said, only to see the angry swarm of bees preparing to attack, "Uh oh! RUN AWAY!"
Then Ed begins to run away with the bees in pursuit, while his friends watch.
"Oh dear!" Double D cried, "ED!"
"Don't worry about him, Sockhead!" Eddy said, "He's just distracting the bees, that's all! Now let's get out there and grab our honey!"
Eddy, Double D, and Mac exit the bush and head to the abandoned hive with a ladder and medal pale. Double D places the ladder by the hive, while Mac hands Eddy the bucket.
"I smell cash, boys!" Eddy said enthusiastically as he walks up to the ladder with the bucket, "We're going to be rich once we get all the honey from the hive! Every kid in the Cul-de-sac would want this stuff and enjoy it!"
Double D sighs.
"I hope he doesn't also collect larvae, Mac!" he said.
"Larvae?" Mac asked.
"It's also a bee's nest!" Double D replied.
Then, Ed, still in his bear costume, walks in.
"Hi guys!" Ed said, "Did we get our honey?"
"Ed?!" Mac asked.
"What are you doing?" Eddy roared, "Get out there and distract the bees, Lumpy!"
Then, Mac sees the huge cloud of angry bees approaching them.
"Uh oh!" Mac cried.
The Eds turned and saw the swarm of bees arrive at them in retaliation.
"NOT GOOD! NOT GOOD! NOT GOOD!" Double D yelled.
"Run away!" Mac yelled as he, Ed, and Double D flee for their lives.
"EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF!" Ed yelled as he ran and accidentally knocked the ladder from the tree, causing Eddy to fall and land on the ground.
As he gets up, he sees the angry bee cloud closing in on him. Panicked, Eddy screams and follows his fleeing friends with the bees in their pursuit.
After their fourth failed attempt on exploiting honey from a bees' nest for their scam, the Eds and Mac returned to for another attempt that could work, this time, an idea by Double D and Mac: wearing sting proof outfits Double D finds in his garage. The four boys, all wearing their sting proof outfits, walk to the beehive, with Mac carrying the bucket and Double D carrying the ladder.
"Got to hand it to you, Double D!" Mac said, "I'm glad that you already have those sting resistant outfits we could wear for this!"
"Of course, Mac!" Double D replied, before turning to Eddy, "And we could've worn this in the first place for this idea of a scam of yours, Eddy!"
"Yeah right!" Eddy muttered, "And I thought we could get past those stupid bees for the honey without getting stung!"
"Cool!" Ed said, "This reminds me of how the space outlaws from Earth vs. The Hunters from Planet Barg wear!"
"Enough movie talk, Monobrow!" Eddy said as they reached the beehive, "Lets get up there and get our honey!"
Double D places the ladder below the beehive that's still swarming with bees. On both sides of the ladder (Eddy and Double D on one and Ed and Mac on the other), the Eds and Mac began to walk to the top to reach the hive.
"Ha!" Eddy said mockingly as they made it to the top of the ladder, "Those stupid bees! Think they're going to sting us! So scary! Well not this time suckers!"
Eddy laughs mockingly before he turns to Mac.
"Mac!" Eddy said, "The bucket!"
Mac was about to hand Eddy the bucket but nearly dropped it. But Ed manages to grab it.
"Got it, Mac!" he said.
Unfortunately, the other side of the bucket's handle hooks part of Ed's sting proof outfit and when he takes the bucket and hands it to Eddy, he accidentally rips a chunk of his sting proof outfit, leaving only a small hole on his outfit in his right shoulder.
Ed then hands the bucket to Eddy.
"This is going to be the greatest scam in the world!" Eddy said, "We're going to make so much money with this honey!"
"That rhymes, Eddy!" Ed said.
Then, the bee swarms flow around to attack the four boys to defend their nest.
"Yeah right!" Eddy said, mockingly, "Those dumb bees can't sting us now!"
Eddy laughs. As the Eds and Mac prepare to collect the honey, several of the bees flew towards the hole in Ed's sting proof outfit and then went through it. Ed then felt something moving on him.
"Guys!" Ed said, "I think I felt something moving on me!"
Then Ed felt something sharp and stinging and he yelled and panicked.
"AHH!" he screamed, "SOMETHING STINGING ME GUYS! GET IT OFF!"
"Ed?" Mac asked.
"Are you ok?" Double D asked.
Ed panics as the bees inside his sting proof out fit attack him, causing the ladder to rock around and the bucket to fall.
"WHOA!" Eddy yelled, "CAREFUL ED!"
"GET IT OFF GUYS!" Ed yelled.
Eddy jumps and grabs hold on to the hive. Ed grabs Mac and Double D by their outfit to find a way to stop the stings while Mac and Double D grab Eddy by the outfit while their ladder falls off the ground.
"HEY!" Eddy yelled, "LET GO OF ME, GUYS!"
"OUCH!" Ed in which the weight of himself while holding his grip on Mac and Double D's outfits, combined with his fingernails, rips and tears their outfits before falling back on the ground with the large chunks of the sting-proof outfits.
"OH MY!" Double D said when noticing that he and Mac have lost most of their sting resistant outfits, "EXPOSED!"
"The honey's mine!" Eddy said as he continues holding on to the nest while Double D and Mac still hold on to him.
"Uh oh!" Mac said in horror as the weight and pressure of Eddy holding on to the beehive while being held by Edd and Mac causes the beehive to snap off from the tree branch, in which they all fell off to the ground.
As they all get up from the fall, Eddy loses his sting proof helmet and that the impact from the fall has destroyed the entire hive into pieces, covering the four boys with honey.
"What the!" Eddy said when seeing the nest's destruction.
"Oh man!" Mac said in horror when he and Edd witnessed what they'd done to the hive.
"Yum!" Ed said when tasting the honey, "Honey!"
Then, they hear the loud buzzing sounds. The four boys turned and saw the giant cloud of all the bees angrily surrounding them, preparing to attack to avenge their destroyed hive.
"Oh dear!" Double D said, "Not good! Not good! Not good!"
"Now what?" Eddy asked, annoyed.
"I think we ticked off all the bees, Eddy!" Mac said in fright.
"Yes!" Double D said in horror, "I think they're seeking revenge on us for destroying their nest, Eddy!"
"We're busted!" Mac cried.
"What do we do now guys?" Ed asked, nervously, as the angry bees began to close in on them.
"I say…" Eddy suggested, "we make a RUN FOR IT!"
And that's when the Eds and Mac run away screaming for their lives while the angry bees are in their hot pursuit. They continue to relentlessly chase the boys across the field.
"NO STINGING FOR ED!" Ed screamed during the chase.
"Mommy!" Eddy cried.
The bees continue to furiously chase the Eds and Mac across the field as far away from their tree as they can to avenge their destroyed nest. Then they reached a tall ledge, but Ed, with his clumsy bulk, knocks them off the ledge, screaming, "TROUBLE BAD!", causing all of them to fall off the ledge and landed on the ground. Then, the angry bee swarm sees where their nest raiders are and closes in on them, attacking and stinging them, while the Eds and Mac scream during their punishment by the angry insects.
As the sun sinks into the horizon of Peach Creek, the kids of the Cul-de-sac continue doing their after-school routine. Kevin and Rolf are playing and catching football with each other. Nazz is jump roping with her jump rope. Sarah and Jimmy are lying on their blanket reading fairy tales and playing with their dolls. Jonny and Plank share and drink soda with each other. Then, the Eds and Mac, all swollen and puffed up and covered in bee stings, arrived in the Cul-de-sac. The sights of them in that appearance made the neighborhood kids amused and laughed and taunted at them.
"Look Sarah!" Jimmy said, "It's Humpty Dumpty and his friends!"
Jimmy and Sarah laugh and tease Eds and Mac.
"What a bunch of idiots!" Sarah mocked while laughing.
Jonny and Plank join in.
"Would look at that, Plank!" Jonny said and laughed.
"Check it out!" Kevin mocked, "It's the Power-Puffed Dorks!"
That's when Kevin bursts into laughter, mockingly, while Nazz and Rolf join.
"Yes!" Rolf laughed and mocked, "They reminded me of Nana's nasal warts!"
The Cul-de-sac kids continue to laugh and taunt at the Eds and Mac, all swollen and puffed up and covered in bee stings. Eddy grumbles in annoyance.
"Well, Eddy!" Double D said in mellow, "I guess we should learn to never mess with mother nature the next time we plan on doing our scams!"
"Whatever, Sockhead!" Eddy mumbles. Mac sighs.
"At least it's not as embarrassing, mean, and terrible as Bloo's surprise party last week!" Mac said, "I hope that's not what he and all those jerks from Foster's are planning on doing for me next year!"
Double D sighed.
"Lets just head to my house to find that sting ointment to cure it guys!" Double D said in mellow as he and his friends head to his house.
"Yeah!" Mac said, "I hate to see what my mom and Terrence be like when they see me like this!"
"I am all buffed up guys!" Ed said, happily and enthusiastically.
"Shut up, Ed!" Eddy grumbled, annoyed.

Also, I wanna say that I am not going to accept suggestions and reviews from anonymous reviewers, because recently the only reviews of this story that I've been getting is by some stupid idiotic anonymous reviewer who keeps changing the user names already taken by other writers of fanfiction (including mine) and pesters and annoys me by posting stupid suggestions about what the finale of this story is going to be which I don't want to spoil it. I hate these reviews and suggestions for obvious reasons and I am not going to do the suggestions by that dim-witted anonymous a* hole of Mac getting arrested and horribly mistreated by everyone, mostly his mother and Frankie, being treated as a villain or bad guy, not being friends Frankie and everyone else anymore, and saying he's bad and died from starvation during it, while Bloo gets beloved and being told that they won't be mad at him anymore and anything to do with merpeople (it has nothing to do with the story, stupid!).
But I can't reply to them, nor can I block them, so I am going to tell the anonymous reviewer(s) to please stop writing and posting stupid, dumb suggestions and ideas in the reviews of my crossover. I am NOT taking their advice, because I HATE THEM! This is my story! So please leave me and my story alone!
