Not to be confused with the Odd Blocks Club.
Odd is the tenth episode of the third series of Alphablocks, as well as the 62nd episode overall.
Synopsis[]
O goes through the magnifying glass to where the grass is blue, the trees are square and nonsense words make friendly monsters who run off with magnifying glasses!
Story[]
O sees D drumming. He doubles up and sticks together to make digraph DD.
o-dd, ODD!
O's magnifying glass enlarges. O enters through the glass and finds himself in an odd world. He sees G growing an odd plant.
o-g, OG!
An og appears. It admires O's magnifying glass and steals it and runs up an odd tree. Og's hat falls down on O's head. He calls Y for help.
y-o-g, YOG!
A yog appears. The yog can't help by itself, so it needs a zog. O calls Z for help.
z-o-g, ZOG!
A zog appears. The yog jumps on top of it. Both the yog and the zog need a zox. O calls X for help.
z-o-x, ZOX!
A zox appears, coming under the yog on the zog. All three need a vox. O calls V for help.
v-o-x, VOX!
A box appears, and inside is a large vox wearing socks (or sox). Soon there's a tower of odd creatures. The og returns the magnifying glass to O. O exits the odd world and back into Alphaland. He explains the whole thing to DD.
