Lips is the seventeenth episode of the second series of Alphablocks. It is the 43rd episode overall.
Synopsis[]
It's bedtime for A, E, I, O and U, but vowels will be vowels and there's no getting them to snuggle down. L's lullaby usually does the trick, but she needs a little help from her friends.
Story[]
It's nighttime in Alphaland. L appears, and A runs to her. L sings a lullaby to gently send A to sleep.
But soon, the other vowels rush in, playing loudly and waking A. She joins them, and they all brush their teeth and put on pajamas before continuing their noisy fun.
Then G arrives.
L
O
G
, log!
A log appears, and G rolls away on it. D comes in next.
L
I
D
, lid!
A lid appears! The vowels climb in, and they go for a spinning ride in the lid, flying up into the sky. They fall back down one by one.
E lands first.
B
E
D
, bed!
A bed appears, and the Alphablocks begin jumping on it. But E, being the first to fall, can't sleep without his teddy bear.
T
E
D
, ted!
With Ted the teddy, E can finally rest. Next, U falls and can’t sleep without a hug.
H
U
G
, hug!
H and G give U a warm hug, helping him drift to sleep.
Then A lands and can’t sleep either.
N
A
P
, nap!
She takes a nap at last. O is next to fall—he prefers his own little bed.
C
O
T
, cot!
A cot appears for O to sleep in. Finally, I falls. She can’t sleep without a kiss goodnight.
L
I
P
S
, lips!
A pair of lips appear and give I a kiss. All the vowels are now asleep.
Good night, vowels!

Five little Alphablocks jumping on the bed
One fell off and bumped his head...
E: I can't go to sleep without my teddy.
T, E, D held hands and said...
