[edit] Biography
A stickler for the rules, Edward (voiced by Doug Lawrence) is a platypus with a big, fat grudge against anyone who doesn't follow them. In "Racing Slicks", even though he won the race, he didn't get the largest trophy. He's constantly coming up with schemes to spoil any fun that Lazlo and his pals might have, especially in "The Nothing Club" where everyone except Lazlo was in an anti-Lazlo club. However, he agrees with Lazlo in "Loogie Llama" that they need to get Spitty back from the Squirrel Scouts because Spitty was one of them.
In "Burpless Bean" Edward is chosen to lead the chorus of burping scouts in a talent show. Because Lazlo is unable to burp, and the other Jelly scouts won't perform without him, Edward agrees to teach Lazlo how to burp. Though he enjoyed showing off his moves he eventually grew frustrated when Lazlo couldn't mimic them and decided to taperecord a burp for the performance. Not wanting to cheat, Lazlo comes up with a new plan (inspired by a sci-fi comic). Although Edward is skeptical, Lazlo's futuristic 'robot' dancing proves a hit and the concert ends happily. He is also the youngest scout, as he was the last scout to reach "big-boy" status in "Movie Night". According to one episode, his real name is Edison and his middle name is just left out as T.
Nobody, however, knows Edward's secret (until "Hello, Dolly"): he loves dolls and playing with them. He even has a doll named Veronica that he got for Christmas. He sleeps in Pinto Cabin with Chip and Skip. Edward is also Camp Kidney's current mascot known as the "Duke of Lice" which is shown in the episode "Mascot Madness". He has a brother whose name is Mel and has three other older brothers. It is revealed in "Hello Summer, Goodbye Camp", Edward really wants a voodoo drum. In the episode "Waiting For Edward" it is sadly revealed he needs Chip and Skip to feel smart. Edward also used to play croquet, but quit for an unknown reason, as he mentions in the episode "Creepy Crawly Campy". Perhaps because of their similar personalities, Gretchen from Acorn Flats has a crush on him. In "Temper Teepee" they share the same happy place- a fantasy world where they drive a bulldozer over a common nemesis: Chef McMuesli. In "Tomato Paste" Edward is the only Bean Scout to have every Bean Scout Badge that ever existed-until he reveals to Lumpus that he got the badges by buying them and has been faking his achivements; Lumpus admits that thats the way he became Scoutmaster as well!
