Square Club is the sixth episode of the fourth series of Numberblocks. It is the 66th episode overall.
Four, Nine and Sixteen had a planned meeting, but things got out of hand. Who will save it all? Who will help Four, Nine and Sixteen?
Plot[]
The episode starts with Sixteen hopping onto each of her sides as a square when Nine comes in. When Nine asks if this is Square Club, Sixteen tells Nine she's have to be square with him: that it is. Nine rolls his eyes. Sixteen tells him to come in and play asks if he wants to play Rock-Paper-Square or Tiddlysquares. Nine says he wants to play "Noughts and Squares". Nine decides to draw a square with Sixteen drawing a circle when all of the sudden an alarm sounds. It turns out that this alarm rings if a round thing is detected in Square Club. Sixteen erases it and tells Nine she forgot that round things are banned in the club, making him win by default, making another pun in the process. Nine rolls his eyes again.
Four then comes, apologising for being late, but Sixteen and Nine glare at him. This is because he's not square, so he rearranges himself. Sixteen then calls to recite the rules of Square Club, Rule #1 being "no round things", then asks to hear the Square Motto. They then do square art with Stampolines and then proceed to eat. They all decide to eat cake, but unfortunately Four can't decide on which colour of cake he should eat and intensely splits into the Terrible Twos. The Terrible Twos decide to dunk round things into the house, setting off the alarm and scaring the squares.
Nine and Sixteen attempt to stop it, but Nine splits into the Three Threes, who only juggle the balls and Sixteen splits into the Four Fours, who are afraid of doing anything with the round things. Suddenly, One enters, calling herself the One One, and manages to whack the balls out of the house, in the process landing on the Stampoline and stamping herself. When she clears all of the round things, the other squares realise that One is a square number, and her eye turns into a square. After that, the squares update their motto, including One in the chant.
Only squares and their square roots appear in this episode.
This episode aired 6 years after the Alphablocks episode: Four.
This marks the second time the Terrible Twos appear due to Four being unable to decide; the first is the eponymous episode, and this their fifth overall appearance.
This also marks the only time Numberblocks witness and react to Four becoming the Terrible Twos aside from Four himself. We're Going on a Square Hunt does have the Terrible Twos appear, but only Four reacts to them.
Starting with this episode, One is considered a square, thus joining the Square Club. In a previous episode, Four was saddened by the fact he was the only square number.
When Four comes to the meeting, he is shown in vertical form, which receives glares. When he goes to 2×2 form, he apologises. This means that the Square Club expects members to stay in geometrically square arrangements at meetings; having the right numerical value is not enough.
As seen in this episode, Nine and Sixteen actually are afraid of round things.
The Tiddly Squares box has red, orange, yellow, and green, referring to Four.
Four knew One was a square before One actually appears in the episode. Here is some proof:
There was an extra frame on the wall.
Proof 1
One's colour is in the background of the Square Club motto.
Proof 2
There was an extra canvas towards the left of Four.
Possibility: Four wanted the cake to be pink and yellow so that he can summon the Terrible Twos at the exact time he invited One there, which explains why he was late, and he must have let One use the stampoline on the spare canvas. Also, the stampoline was Numberblock One's colour.
Possibility
Tiddly Squares is a reference to the board game Tiddly Winks
Errors[]
If you pause at the right moment when the Terrible Twos first appear, their shoes are the same colour as Two's regular ones.
Additionally, when the pink-masked Terrible Two pulls the string, he and the blue-masked Terrible Two's numberlings clip through the round things.
