The goal of the scam was to sell fake exotic pets to the kids. The idea came to them when Eddy thought that Ed was being attacked by a snake, and when Edd told them that it was just a belt, Eddy decided to sell it as an exotic pet. This lead to them "making" more pets. The pets were just a bunch of random items put together to resemble the animal that it is supposed to be, such as an alligator made from a football. The scam was both a success and a failure because at first the kids realized that the alligator was fake (when exposed by Edd), but they later believed the Eds when they tried to sell them
