The blocks decide to learn about adding ones and simple counting with their version of The Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Square.
Plot[]
The Numberblocks 1-4 re-enact the Three Little Pigs, with Five as a narrator. Numberblocks 1-3 are the eponymous pigs, while Four plays as the "Big Bad Square". He first goes to One's house, and asks her to let him in. One denies, so Four, after a bit of some hesitation because of the house's shape, reluctantly blows down One's house. One flees to Two's house.
Four follows One there, and once again asks them to let him in. They deny, so Four blows their house down, but he also accidentally blows Two down, splitting him into two Ones; Four apologises, and Two admits that they are just pretending. They soon go to Three's house.
Once again, Four goes to Three's house, and does the exact same thing; ask to come in, and gets denied again. Four attempts to blow down Three's house; surprisingly enough, he succeeds in doing so, and blows Three down into Ones. Three gives Four his karma and blows him into 4 Ones.
Five soon rushes in to explain that they messed up the story, saying that the third house was not supposed to be blown down. Because of this, 1-3 are now without a living space. Four, thankfully, still has his house, and invites them inside. The story ends there; this is much to Five's approval.
And this is the only episode in Series 1 to do so. We won't find another fourth wall break in the series until Series 2.
This is the first episode where we see Numberblocks inside structures that can be considered houses.
This is the first episode to briefly cover multiplication and division, even though their actual debut is Sign of the Times and Divide and Drive. Two, Three, and Four were divided and multiplied by Ones.
This episode and the actual "Three Little Pigs" has a few differences:
The third house gets blown down.
The third pig blows away the big bad wolf.
The pigs live with the wolf.
A modified version of the music appears in Numberblocks World.
This is the first time Four stays arranged as a square.
When Three says “That’s me! Oh, busy busy busy!”, her snout and hair disappear when the camera zooms out.
Four is afraid of round things, although he does not care of the window of the first door. However, this episode was before Double Trouble, the first episode where his fear of round things was shown, so it could have been possible he developed the fear at a later stage.
When Four says “Little pig, little pig, let me in, let me in!” at Three’s house, his entire body is a slightly different colour compared to the rest of the shots, almost looking lime.
