Key is the fifth episode of the first series of Alphablocks, as well as the fifth episode overall.
Story[]
C is cracking cracks to her sound. She meets her brother K, who is kicking the ball to his sound while R counts the keep-ups. C thought K is copying her. C's cracks ruin K's keep-ups. C and K decide a contest. K does it on E and Y.
k-ey, KEY!
And a key appears.
C says her sound is the best. She does it on A, G, and E.
c-a-g-e, CAGE!
A cage falls onto everyone except E, G, and Y. As K takes the key to the locked door, there is no keyhole. So, C and K join together to make the CK sound.
How will they get out?
