[We open at Numberblock Castle, and it's raining. But then the rain stops, and a rainbow shines through the window.]
Seven: [gasp] A rainbow!
Nine: Ooh. It must be nice being so many different colours. I'm just grey, grey, grey.
Seven: Cheer up, Nine! You'll never know when your luck will- Ooh!
Nine: Oooh...
One: Ooh! Ooooh!
Four: I heard a noise. Ooh! A wizard's den.
Two, Three, Five, Six, and Eight: [surprised noises]
Seven: This must be your lucky day, Nine. Draw a number in the air, that many colours you will share!
Three: Draw a number? You can draw me, if you like!
One: I think it means, draw a number like these! Our numberlings! And a number one is one straight line going down. One colour!
[All the Numberblocks turn red]
Three: We're all red! One colour isn't very exciting. Let's try three! Make a curve, just like me, then one more, and you've got three!
[All the Numberblocks turn barbecue coloured]
Nine: What colourful stripes!
Two: [giggles] That's funny!
Three: Three colours each! So who's next?
Nine: I'm the largest here, that means the most colours! A loop, and then a downward line! That's the way to make a nine!
[All the Numberblocks turn rainbow, as seen on the first leak for the season]
Nine: Nine colours! Beat that! [laughs]
[Zero appears out of a wizard hat]
Zero: *gasp* That looks like fun! Can I have a go? Round in a loop like an empty hoop, makes zero! Zero colours!
[All the Numberblocks turn invisible]
Zero: Oh, whoops.
Three: Where's everyone gone?
Everyone except Zero: [complaining]
Eight: Octoblock, breathe! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, [breathes] breathe... Ahh, that's better.
Zero: I'm sorry, the wand turned us all zero colours, and itself too!
One: The wand! Where is it?
Zero: I don't know! Someone bumped into me and...I dropped it...
Everyone except Zero: [gasps]
Seven: Maybe there's a counter spell in here! Uh... Aha! You'll stay invisible until you draw your number with this quill.
Zero: My number's easy to remember! Round in a loop like an empty hoop makes zero. [turns visible] Nothing to see here! *giggles*
One: My turn! One line down, like a stick makes a one, *turns visible* that was quick! Over to you, Two!
Two: I can't remember how my number looks. I'll be invisible forever!
Nine: [gasp] We could copy our numbers from the bookcase! Quick!
[All the numberblocks accidentally bump into things as they run to the bookcase]
Zero: Our numbers! Let's trace them together! Round in a loop like an empty hoop makes zero!
One: One line down like a stick makes a one, that was quick!
Two: One curve down is what you do, then straight across, [turns visible] to make a two!
Three: Make a curve just like me, then one more [turns visible] and you've got three!
Four: Down and right, off once more, cross the line, *turns visible* that's a four! It's working! It's working!
Zero, One, and Two: Woohoo!
Five: Down and around then a line up high! *turns visible* High five!
Six: Start with a curve, round with a swish, *turns visible* that's the way to make a six.
Seven: A line in the sky and down to the ground, *turns visible* that's how lucky seven's found.
Eight: An S to start, looking great. Loop back up *turns visible* and there's your eight!
Nine: A loop and then a downward line, *turns visible* that's the way to make a nine! And what fine figures we all make.
Everyone: Hooray!
