Synopsis[]

Numberblock Nine arrives in Numberland, finds a friend in Four, sings a song about squares... and sneezes!

Characters[]

Plot[]

Four is upset that he is the only square Numberblock in the world. He sulks, but Eight tries to help him by arranging himself into a square, until Four and One point out that he is a square with a hole. One sees this and fits in.

Numberling 8+Numberling 1=Numberling 9

Four is excited to see Nine and shows him the magic mirror and creates another Nine, who starts to sneeze out his middle block.

Numberling 9-Numberling 1=Numberling 8

Both Four and Nine are square Numberblocks, due to them both having four sides and four corners. Four asks him why he has a number 9 on top. Nine explains in song that he is 3 rows of 3 blocks by 3, and Four is 2 blocks by 2.

As the episode ends, Nine starts to sneeze again, but Four gives him a hanky, and together the two of them say "Squares!"

Lyrics[]

1, 2, 3, 3 blocks in my first row

1, 2, 3, 3 blocks in my second

1, 2, 3, 3 blocks in my third row

3 rows of 3 3 rows combined

As you can see 3 rows of 3 make 9

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9...

Ooh, tickly nose!

I'm fine!

*HE SNEEZES*

1, 2, 3, 3 blocks in a column

1, 2, 3, 3 blocks top to bottom

1, 2, 3, 3 blocks if you've got them

3 lots of 3 3 in a line

As you can see

4: 3 lots of 3 make 9...

9: That's right!

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

I'm 3 blocks up and down

And 3 from side to side

I'm the same in both directions

I'm as tall as I am wide

That's why I'm square like you

I'm 3 by 3 You're 2 by 2

4: I'm 2 by 2 You're 3 by 3

Both: That's why you're square like me

4: We seem a very unlikely pair

But now you've explained it I see the squareness we share

I'm 2 blocks up and down

And 2 from side to side

I'm the same in both directions

I'm as tall as I am wide

9: That's why I'm square like you

I'm 3 by 3

I'm 2 by 2

That's why I'm square...

*HE SNEEZES*

4: Yes, I am square like you

9: I'm 3 by 3 You're 2 by 2

4: I'm 2 by 2 You're 3 by 3

9: That's why you're square

4: That's why you're square

Both: That's why you're square like me

4: 1, 2, 3, 4

9: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9!

Math Magic[]

8 + 1 = 9 (segment)

9 - 1 = 8 (segment)

Trivia[]

  • Song: That's Why You're Square Like Me
  • This is the first time Teresa Gallagher (voice of Six and Ten in this season) doesn't do any voice work for an entire episode.
  • In the trailer for Series 2, Eight's line, "How's this?" is used in a clip in the episode Eight where Eight says "Octoblock, swim!"
  • The instrumental version of the song can be heard in 9's games in the game Numberblocks Make & Play.
  • Four and Nine are square through the whole episode.
  • Four is sad that he is the only square Numberblock in the whole world, despite the fact that One is also one as well. This is because he didn't learn that One is indeed a square Numberblock until Square Club.
  • This episode teaches not only about the number 9, but it also teaches columns and rows like in Twelve's episode, despite this episode being in orange level 2.
  • Error: When Nine sneezes the second time, Eight only has four normal limbs.
  • Running Gag: Nine sneezing out his middle block.
