Land of the Giants is the twenty-fourth episode of the fourth season of Numberblocks. It is the 84th episode overall.

Synopsis[]

Five and friends discover a way to make themselves ten times bigger.

Plot[]

Numbers 1-5 are with Fifty on a stage. Fifty is rocking out, before revealing a device that can be turned up to ten; and make anything ten times bigger. She turns all of the dials on the device up to ten, increasing the lights and sounds to an extreme amount. This also includes the dials with the block on it. All of the sudden, a Tens version of the Season 1 intro plays, but glitches out in the end. The result is that now, Numberblocks counts by tens instead of ones!

The story first starts with Ten falling from the sky. As she gets up, a 10 numberling soon jumps onto her head, and she knows who she is now. After some counting, she eventually ends up at a tennis court. Realizing she needs to make friends, she finds the Magic Mirror and proceeds to create Twenty. One of the Tens proceeds to clone themselves to form Twenty. As they start their game of tennis, Twenty accidentally serves the ball too hard and tries to get it, but in the process slips on the spare tennis rackets. They add up to Thirty.

Thirty, being all alone, decides to use the Magic Mirror to recreate Ten and Twenty as they soon run back to where they started; though in the wrong positions. This causes them to miscount, as they aren't in the correct size order. Twenty and Thirty swap places. Afterwards, Thirty states that she is the biggest. Ten and Twenty then decide to contradict this by Ten adding up with Thirty, which creates Forty.

Forty wants to find Oblongy, searching for him along with Ten and Thirty. Oblongy does eventually appear, as Forty picks up a stick. Unfortunately, by the time Forty does anything, Oblongy's gone missing again. Unable to decide which way to look for Oblongy, Forty proceeds to split into the Terrible Twenties. Both of them use a total of 2 lots of 20 feathers to tickle Twenty and Thirty, causing them to split into Tens. They all retreat to the same stage from earlier, and meet with Fifty. Upon playing her guitar, she realizes that someone set up the volume and everything up to ten. She turns the dials back to one, as numbers 1-5 return to their normal sizes and re-enact the ending to the Numberblocks intro, with both Squarey and Oblongy nearby.

Characters[]

Trivia[]

  • The Numberblocks 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 re-enact the oldest episodes of the show. As such, some of the lines are variations of previous lines, or even the exact same, such as "No show without an audience." ("Where's my audience?" from Three). The episodes rewound (in order) are:
  • This is the 4th appearance of Squarey.
    • At the same time, this episode introduces Forty's pet oblong, called "Oblongy", who interestingly continues to exist with Squarey at the end of the episode.
  • This episode's title is a reference to the 1968 American TV series "Land of The Giants".
  • It's unknown what happened to Fifty at the end of the episode; she was responsible for turning everything up to 10, but when that happened and 1-5 was multiplied by ten, she disappeared, and she never returned until Fifty when everything was back to normal.
  • This episode marks the first and only appearance of the Terrible Twenties.

Differences[]

Intro[]

  • The main theme song plays before the tens version.
    • Also, notably, the song is sung in a tone slightly more different and it's easier to hear the Numberblocks' voices when they say "Numberblocks!'.
    • Due to Thirty not having the same balls Three has, Thirty instead throws her hat towards the screen.
    • The night sky isn't as illuminated as it goes down, if you look properly.
    • The theme song glitches out after "Numberblocks start again", possibly because One is used for the O in "Numberblocks".

One[]

  • Ten's value immediately appears and jumps onto Ten's head. In the original episode, it appears after One wonders who she is.
    • Additionally, Zero cameos, when this wasn't the case in the original. This is mainly because Ten has a 0, whereas One doesn't.

Another One[]

  • There's no scene where Ten awakens after sleeping.
  • There's literally ten rackets when Ten re-enacts a call back to Another One.
  • Ten simply runs past the Magic Mirror to clone herself. In the original, when One encounters the mirror, she doesn't believe it is really a magical mirror, until she walks away sadly.
  • When Ten creates another Ten, there is no montage of them playing tennis with one racket, unlike the original. They immediately add up to Twenty instead.
  • Additionally, Twenty comes up with the plan of splitting into two Tens and having one Ten go to the Magic Mirror to clone themselves. In the original, the Ones don't get the same plan until Two splits into 1+1 a second time.

Three[]

  • The way Thirty gets created is different from Three; it is instead Twenty accidentally hitting the tennis ball with too much force and tripping on a tennis racket trying to retrieve it. Three was created when One hopped onto Two while attempting to "rearrange".
  • Thirty runs up to the Magic Mirror. In the original, Three just happened to stumble by it.

Off We Go[]

  • Due to the order, Off We Go is done without Forty and Fifty. It is also shorter, only consisting of the Numberblocks counting out of order and quickly fixing this mistake.
  • Despite Ten being in the correct position, she still says "Ten" wonkily. In Off We Go, One and Two managed to say their name normally even when Three was missing.
  • One should note that when they count out of order, they go back to the same pose they had before they counted out of order, except not as happy. In the original, this wasn't really the case.

Four[]

  • Forty's creation is a bit different than usual.
    • Thirty simply states that she's the biggest.
    • Twenty lobs Ten with his cane, rather than throwing her.
    • When Ten is lobbed, she goes above Thirty, as Thirty "runs" towards Ten's position. Three didn't move at all in the original, in fact being shocked.
    • Forty isn't initially 1x40. Additionally, he immediately goes to his main arrangement (4x10).
  • Oblongy is introduced, despite Squarey (Oblongy's basis) not being introduced until Season 3.
  • Forty just happened to stumble upon the Magic Mirror while searching for Oblongy. In the original, Two lead Four to the Magic Mirror. Additionally, in the original, Three is jealous of Four's height (1x4) until he rearranges himself into a square.

The Terrible Twos[]

  • It's daytime when it is re-enacted.
  • There's no Fifty in it.
  • The reason why Forty splits is because Oblongy leaves him. When he splits, the Terrible Twenties are already wearing their masks, rather than only wearing it when Four splits into them for real.
  • Every Numberblock present witnesses the Terrible Twenties' creation. In the original, since everyone was sleeping, nobody knows that the Terrible Twos were really Four.
  • Rather than simply two feathers, they hold sticks with two gloves, with each glove having five feathers at the end.
  • The Terrible Twenties tickle both Twenty and Thirty at the same time, but not Ten. The Terrible Twos in their origin episode tickle One and Two, but not Three, as she suddenly jumped out of bed to juggle her balls.
  • The Terrible Twenties, while running away, end up at Fifty's stage. They don't scare themselves, instead simply splitting up.

Five[]

  • Fifty already is there.
  • The entire thing is re-enacted differently. It is instead Fifty prompting everyone to get into their positions. Then, when she plays her guitar, it is too loud. Wondering why everything is turned up to Ten, she immediately fixes this problem by setting everything back to One.
