In the end, Stoop Kid leaves his stoop but continues to stay there and harass people on (and off) his stoop.

Trivia

Stoop Kid is voiced by Danny Cooksey.
Stoop Kid reads the book The Little Engine that Could which is a moralistic children's story. The book is used to teach children the value of optimism and hard work. However, some critics would contend that the book is a metaphor for the American Dream.
Stoop Kid also appears in the episode "Cool Party".
This episode spawned the Internet meme "Stoop Kid's Afraid To Leave His Stoop!"

Goofs

When Sid is first shown, you can't see any hair in the gap in his hat just above where it snaps together, but later in the episode, you can.
How did a newspaper print a headline saying "STOOP KID AFRAID TO LEAVE HIS STOOP", only a few seconds after the kids started chanting it?
