Up is the eighth episode of the second series of Alphablocks. It is the 34th episode overall.
U is unhappy. He gets glue on his shoe. He kicks it. The glue goes on his face. Then, P pops in and 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.
