Plot
Six tries to get six sheep to sleep. The sheep refuse, so Six decides to roll the dice. The dice shows 3, so Six arranges the sheep in groups of three.
Next, Six rolls a 2 and arranges the sheep in groups of two. When Six sings a counting lullaby to the six sheep, she ends up falling asleep. The sheep tip-toe out of their pen past a sleeping Six, who wakes up and sees six running sheep. The sheep arrange in groups of three, which makes it too tricky for Six to catch by herself.
The first Three finds the first three sheep behind a tree, while the second Three find the next three sheep behind a bush. The two Threes bring the sheep back to their pen, and add back up to Six.
Six counts the sheep again and falls asleep. This time the sheep run out of their pen in groups of two.
Two by two, the three Twos lead the sheep back in their pen, then add back up to Six.
Without being counted, the sheep run away again.
Six thinks that counting blocks will get the sheep to sleep, and it works. Six sleeps with them as the episode ends.
The sheep are the second non-Numberblock 3D-modeled characters, the first being the bird in the episode One.
This is the first episode where Six is arranged 3×2.
This is the first if not only time six addends are featured in addition magic.
This is the first episode to have a decreased biggest Numberblock. This means, the biggest Numberblock appearing in this episode is smaller than the biggest Numberblock appearing in the previous episode. In this case, the biggest Numberblock that appeared in the previous episode is Ten.
This is the first and currently only time that Six sneezes. This is also the first time a Numberblock besides Nine and other square Numberblocks sneezes.
This is the second time only Numberblocks 1-6 are present, the first being Six and the third being Pattern Palace.
