Who should take the blame?

I would blame the serpent for getting Adam and Eve kicked out of the garden. I say that because the serpent convinced eve to eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge and evil. The serpent convinced eve that God doesn't have the power and is not capable to kill her. He said " you will surely not die". And because the serpent convinced her to eat the fruit, she then convinced Adam to eat the apple and God was not happy. He punished not only the serpent for convincing them to try the fruit but he also punished Adam and Eve and kicked them out of the the garden.
