Plot synopsis
O duplicates himself into four. When U, W, Y, and I watch, the O's fall over, sticking them together into vowel digraphs (OU, OW, OY, OI). When OU and OI leave, T comes up and holds hands with OY.
t-oy, TOY!
A toy appears. T leaves. B joins in.
b-oy, BOY!
A boy appears. B asks what a boy is. The boy says he is one. C appears.
c-ow, COW!
A cow appears. "Wow! Do it again!" says the boy.
c-ow-b-oy, COWBOY!
The boy turns into a cowboy and a ranch, named the Thousand Cow Ranch, appears. The boy sets off to round up a cow. Passing OU, he asks them if he can help. The boy offers them a hat. While looking for a cow, they pass D and L.
l-ou-d, LOUD!
The cow belts out a loud MOO!, startling L, OU, D, and the cowboy. They chase the cow, while L walks away. N, who is playing the harmonica, joins in. Then they hear a sound like a rattlesnake. It's actually S shaking a rattle.
s-ou-n-d, SOUND!
They hear a moo. But the sound actually comes from a moo box. While continuing the search, F flies in.
f-ou-n-d, FOUND!
They found a real cow! The cowboy lassoes it in. They need 999 more to go. But where can they be? Deputy TH marches in, S flies in, and A drops in.
th-ou-s-a-n-d, THOUSAND!
Nine hundred and ninety-nine more cows appear, totalling up to a thousand cows! And they're all glad to be here in the Thousand Cow Ranch. Everyone tosses their hats and shouts "YEE-HAAAA!"
And so ends the Alphablocks TV series.
