U gets the balloon ride of his life, but he is still unhappy - or so he thinks! When unhappy U meets perky P, things can only go one way - up. Now U's only problem is getting back down.
Plot
U is unhappy. P wonders what happens to him, and they hold hands.
u-p, UP!
Everyone is lifted up by balloons! U is still unhappy. C comes to help.
c-u-p, CUP!
A cup appears, with T inside it. P doubles herself up.
p-u-p, PUP!
A puppy is lifted up as well, but U doesn’t want a pup and a cup and to be up. U wants to come back down. O flies by.
p-o-p, POP!
A flock of birds pop the balloons and the Alphablocks fall down. D, G, M, and S come to help U.
