The Terrible Twos is the thirteenth episode of the first series of Numberblocks.

Synopsis[]

It's double trouble as Four splits and a pair of tricky twins turn up: the Terrible Twos, who decide it's time to tickle their friends to pieces.

Characters[]

Plot[]

It's night time. The Numberblocks are going to sleep. Four cannot make up his mind on whether he should stay up or go to sleep. Struggling, he remarks that he can't do both...

The two Twos say that they can (do both). Four immediately reassembles, saying "Not you two!" Nonetheless, he can't keep himself together, splitting into the Twos again. Mischievously, they introduce themselves as the Terrible Twos!

The Terrible Twos start by tickling One, causing her to laugh. Then they shout "BOO!". Frightened number One bounces on her bed. Next, the Terrible Twos tickle the normal Two. When they shout "BOO!", Two is frightened, and he separates into two Ones.

Next, the Terrible Twos try to tickle Three, but she wakes up quickly and juggles just before she gets tickled. When the Terrible Twos shout "BOO!", Three separates into three Ones. They chase the Terrible Twos to Four's bed. They shout "BOO!" to themselves, causing them to separate into four Ones.

One remains as one block.

The other Ones turn back into Two, Three, and Four. Five wakes up and wonders what all the noise was. Four attempts that he was the Terrible Twos, but the others think that he's joking and go back to bed.

The Terrible Twos call out their name and shush to the camera.

Math Magic[]

4 = 2 + 2 (segment)

2 + 2 = 4

2 = 1 + 1

3 = 1 + 1 + 1

4 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1

1 + 1 = 2 (segment only)

1 + 1 + 1 = 3 (segment only)

1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4 (segment only)

Trivia[]

  • This marks the first appearance of the The Terrible Twos.
  • The Terrible Twos call each other amigo, which is one of the few references to non-British countries. "Amigo" is Spanish for "friend".
  • This is the fourth episode to include the Z=X+Y format, after several episodes.
  • This episode aired 7 years after Surprise.

Errors[]

  • Originally, the captions on BBC iPlayer say "Doubler! Another another me!", when the correct line is "Double agh! Another another me!". However, this has now been corrected.
