Alphablocks字母积木 Season 2 Episode 12 Fred

The adventures of 26 lively letters who can make words come to life by holding hands.

When a flying saucer crash-lands, F makes a new friend: Fred, who misses his mummy and wants to go home. Can her friends give F the boost she needs to fly Fred to the final frontier?

Story

F sees E and T, who is in capital mode and look at the crash-landed flying saucer. F meets an alien. The alien says his name is Fred. F introduces him to E and T, who turns back into lowercase mode. F asks where Fred is from. F points to his home planet, which is far away from Alphaland. Fred wants to go home. F wants to fly him home, but he’s too heavy. F has failed.

f-o-g, FOG!

With all that fog, F mistakes N as Fred, and N refuses to take Fred home. Then, Fred turns into N. T brings the vowels to help them.

Words used (N is Fred)

  • FEN – Fred, F, T, and the vowels are in a fen.
  • FIN – F has a shark’s fin on her head. They try to swim to Fred’s home, but they can’t reach.
  • FUN – F, U, and Fred bounce so high they can almost touch Fred’s planet, but they don’t make it.
  • FAN (star word) – F has a fan on her back. After counting down from 5 to 1, they blast off and fly to Fred’s home. Fred is happy to meet his mum again.

  • Everyone, including O, speaks properly, except for A who only says her sound in this episode.
    • In the game version, she only says her sound as her solo line, only when FAN is sounded out. After FEN is sounded out, both female vowels, A and I, say “A boggy marsh,” like they’re stuck as digraph AI.

  • E and T being in capital mode refer to a movie from the ’80s called “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial” somewhere in the episode.
  • There is a Numberblocks episode similar to this episode.
