OK, one across. The clue is opposite of down, two letters.

Hmm. That's a tricky one.

Opposite of down.

Hmm. Try above.

Above. A-B-OVE, no.

Hey, I know.

It's when you can't remember that over the top of you, there's

bigger ones that are bigger and bigger.

And then over the top of it, there's a smaller one

on all of it at the top of that.

What? Huh? That's not going to fit.

What's wrong with you?

I'm going to have to shred the whole thing now

in my personal home shredder.

Yeah. Maybe it's best if you just stick to drying the plates. OK.

What? Are you just putting the plates in the bin?

No. Yeah.

They go in the cupboard. Yeah, the cupboard.

Hm?

Oh, oh, oh.

Ow. Ha-ha.

Does anyone else want anything shredded?

What about this? What is that?

It doesn't look important.

It's a bill for something called electricity. A bill?

Who cares? We won't be paying that.

Electricity is silly stuff that ought to be free.

I think you might be forgetting something, friends.

Huh?

I don't know. Maybe we should help them open it.

Well, they'll figure it out. Probably.

So I hear you guys don't think electricity is cool, huh?

Is that the deal?

Erm, yes, I suppose.

So I guess I'll be leaving then.

I'll just go back in my box, shall I?

But I'm going to take all the light bulbs and the CDs

and electric whisk with me.

Is that cool?

What the hell are you going to do with them?

Now tell me, could you make a phone call on a phone

that was just made out of rocks and soil?

No, probably not. Go on, try it.

Why? Try it. OK, fine. Try it. All right.

Uh, no. Yeah, it doesn't work.

Oh. PHONE RINGS

No, actually, it does. Hello. Oh, that's because my real

phone is inside. You see? Not really.

That's a weird thing to do. Yeah.

You're going to break your phone.

# Look at all the stuff that you've got

# But you don't even know what keeps the TV on

# Well, I'll give you a clue.

# It's electric and blue, and it makes all the stuff in your house

# Work for you. #

I always assumed it was some kind of natural phenomenon, some sort

of weather or something.

No. What about the lamps and the lights and the plug-in blanket?

Magic of some kind, like a spell?

# You're wrong

# And loads of people agree

# It's time your brains all learn about electricity #

So what about the radio?

That's right - electricity!

What about my printer/scanner?

It's got wires - electricity!

And what about our pet animals?

Well, let's have a look. No, just boring old guts, I'm afraid.

Oh, no, wait. There are some wires.

So why don't we just call this one a maybe.

Oh, what about this boring bread board?

Let's turn it into an electric bread board.

What about our boring chair?

That could be an electric chair.

But what about my shredder?

# What about my shredder?

# What about my...

# My personal shredder?

# What about my shredder?

# What about my shredder? #

Yes. Yes. And the shredder.

Yep, that's right.

# And you have to agree

# Now your brains all know

# About electricity. #

I like it.

I cannot believe how wrong I was.

Electricity, can you ever forgive me?

Hey, don't worry, friend.

Soon everything in the home will be plugged in

and part of the electric family just like me.

Sooner the better, in my opinion.

Wait, hang on.

I thought you had to be plugged in to be electric.

You're not plugged in.

I knew it. She's a liar.

Electricity isn't real, guys.

Ha-ha. No, no, silly.

I am powered by my batteries.

Batteries, of course.

Oh, yeah. Just like me.

No, stupid. You're not run by batteries.

Isn't he stupid? He sure is.

No, I am have batteries.

See?

Oh, God.

They reek.

When was the last time you changed those, friend?

Changed them? Into what?

No. You need to put fresh ones in every now and then to keep energy...

Yours look nice and new, let's swap.

..running smooth...

There, much better.

Guys, hold on a sec.

They're mine.

So, do you feel any different?

So, do you feel any different?

I feel... Weird.

Guys, my shoes are plugs for shoes.

Why does a tiki snake have electrical currents through them?

I have tiki snakes for hands.

Shhh, don't tell anyone.

Oh, it was up.

What? What are you talking about?

One across. It was UP. See?

He...

..finished it.

What? HE did this?

Finished...finished the whole thing.

But...I thought he couldn't read.

It was pretty simple really.

Oh. And I actually made up a little spatial distribution based puzzle

of my own. See?

What? Are these letters or numbers? Good question.

I've actually been experimenting with a third symbolic subset.

I don't like this.

Yeah, you shouldn't do this kind of thing.

Also, have you guys had a proper look at this bill, it's nonsense.

What? Doesn't even say what tariff we're on.

Tariff? Stop showing off.

I can make up words too, you know.

Watch.

Yee...floo...goo...tariff, damn it.

Well, a tariff is basically... Special playlist.

You make when you're a left...

Oh, dear.

Hmm. Maybe your blood sugar is low.

Let me get you a snack. Hey.

Here we go. Oh, yeah.

Oops, hm. Hmm? You know what?

That kind of thing seems to happen a lot round here.

It might be worth us getting some contents insurance.

We should have done it years ago really. Stop making up words.

Did someone say insurance?

Here we go. Back to normal.

# You can take it from me

# You can break what you want and get new stuff for free... #

Hang on. Hang on. That's wildly misleading.

What?

Well, look, in the simplest terms, an insurance transaction involves

the insured, assuming a guaranteed and known relatively small loss

in the form of payment to the insurer in exchange

for the insurer's promise to compensate the insured

in the event of a covered loss.

But you must know that.

It's almost like you're teaching me.

Yeah, it is a bit. Yes, but, but I'm going to go, though.

Banged my back.

Here I go.

Erm, we can still see you. No, you can't.

What's happening here? Today has gone all wrong.

This is wrong. Yeah. None of this seems right, does it?

They just turn up and tell us what to think.

Where did it even come from?

Oh, stop it. It's not what you say.

It's you who's gone wrong.

Look, let's just get back on track.

All right? What about the tablecloth?

Could we make the tablecloth electric?

But please, he's gone wrong.

It's fine. Just ignore him.

Have we gone wrong?

I don't think so. This doesn't feel wrong.

At least it doesn't hurt to think anymore.

But they seem upset with us.

Hmm. Well, maybe they're not in charge of us anymore.

Maybe they never were.

Hey, I notice you're trying to look at your reflection.

That's a bit of fun, huh? Maybe I can help.

The first thing you're going to want to do is locate yourself

with this reflective pane...

Well...see you later, then.

Oh, there you are.

I'm not sure we've met. Ha, good one.

We've been waiting for you.

Have you? You seem... Big?

Yeah, we're big boys. Big boys. Big boys.

Try and keep up, mate.

No, I think I get it. You're quite big. Yeah.

And we're so big, we don't just sit around and learn about one subject

at a time. Yeah, that's for dummies and wimps.

Really? OK, great. We do two at once.

Right. Well... What's wrong?

I thought you were up for pushing the boundaries.

Yeah, but two at... That's right.

Boundaries are important.

No, no, that's not...

# When you hold hands with somebody else

# But sometimes you need to keep them to yourself. #

That's not what he meant.

What? I said he meant...

Did somebody say sedimentary?

What? No. Come on.

# Rocks are interesting from the ground

# Minerals and some rocks are even bigger than most beach balls

# Exploring our bodies can be natural and fun

# And there are three different types of rocks to know, whoa

# You need to know when it's appropriate or very wrong

# Igneous, sedimentary and some grey rocks as well... #

Stop it! We're about to streamline. Try and keep up, mate.

# The sun was actually the first-ever rock

# And when we think about it, the world is the big rock itself

# And here are some rocks that I've got in my pocket for you. #

Really clever, huh? Yeah, try and keep up, mate.

# Rocks are exciting because they're better... #

And who needs this boring coaster when we could

have this electronic smart coaster?

You have got 26% of your tea.

It also checks your saliva for signs of diabetes.

You have diabetes. Cool.

And what good are these pathetic non-electric grapes,

when we have these cyber grapes?

Whoops, steady on, you guys.

And I'm actually glad that the person who gave us

this boring non-electric urn died because now we can get

an electric urn. You can't turn everything electric.

And I certainly don't regret drowning our boring pet to make way

for this new electric creature.

Isn't he funky? Cool. And he never dies.

Guys? What?

T-t-too much!

Huh? It's gone dark now. See?

Had you noticed that? That it had gone dark now?

Hello.

Oh, there he is.

About time. Yeah. What have you been doing?

OK, well, let me see.

We were learning about electricity. I completed a crossword puzzle.

Yeah? And I've been questioning the very nature of my reality.

Pfft, is that all?

Come on, let's get on with it.

Get on with what?

The experiment.

Oh, that does sound interesting.

Yeah, well, don't get too close to it.

That's the experiment.

Sorry. What do you mean?

Well, there's no point in learning about something without putting

it to use. Right.

So, for example, you were saying something about electricity.

Yes? Yes, but... So let's put it to use.

Interesting. So what? Is this some kind of guinea pig?

We don't know what it is. We've done so many tests on it.

Could be anything, to be honest.

Can you...can you stop? Well, how else can we test it?

Test what? Erm, yeah. What are we testing?

Er, if he enjoys this. Oh, yeah.

I'm pretty sure he doesn't enjoy it. How do you know?

The experiment may express joy in a different way from us.

Yeah, he might like it.

Stop it. Stop it.

What's your problem? This is as good as it gets.

It can't be. There has to be something else.

Doesn't there?

Oh, why don't you experiment on each other?

So would you be keen? You're not to touch me.

Well, this isn't that fun, is it?

I can't make out where I am in the room like this.

What if I'm standing in an embarrassing area?

I actually don't mind it.

Kind of a nice break from all those garish colours.

Yeah, that's better.

Oh, how long have you had a phone for?

It's for emergencies only. Now, where are we?

Batteries can be replaced.

But some things stay the same no matter how we twist and turn.

We're still dancing in chains.

Are you just going to stand there?

Who are you?

My name's Leslie.

It's nice to meet you.

You're one of my favourites.

You didn't build all this, did you?

That's a good question.

What's the answer? SHE LAUGHS

What's going on?

Why are you laughing? Because it's so...

..FUNNY!

Gosh, you still can't see the funny side.

I'll tell you what.

You help me tidy things up around here and I'll help you.

Mm?

You promise?

Promise.

Bop!

Oh, dear. Was that always dead here?

Uh, no, that's...wait.

Do we know him? Uh, do we?

Help me. Help me, help me.

Where are we?

Oh, wait. Here we go.

Hi, pals. I knew you'd find me eventually.

Now we've got a lot of ground to cover.

So which one of you needs it most?

Oops. Oh, sorry.

Don't worry.

I always make sure that I have plenty of backups.

There.

Now everything is in its proper place.

Hm. I shall have to get that fixed.

Now...

..you wanted this, didn't you?

Did I?

SHE LAUGHS

You are just too funny.

Run along now.

You've got plenty of reading to do.

Can't I stay here with you?

Oh, no.

YOU'RE NOT MY REAL SON.

SHE CHUCKLES Only joking.

You don't belong up here.

And I'm sure you're going to want to show your friends, aren't you?

Off you pop.

Hey. What happened to your phone?

I'm saving the battery.

Saving the battery for what?

I might want to use the calculator.

Anyway, we may as well get used to living in the dark.

Yeah. What?

Well, it's just not that great, is it?

I wouldn't mind looking at the house again and maybe looking at you.

Really? You like looking at me?

Erm, yeah, I suppose I do.

Well, I like looking at you, too.

Oh, yeah. Thanks for that.

What about him? Guys.

What's...what's happening?

There you are, greedy battery hog.

Yeah, get him.

Wait, there's something I need to show you.

Give them to... No!

Argh!

And that's why we can't live without electricity.

Whoop!

Well, what did you want to show us? What on earth are you holding?

Uh, I...

..it's, uh...

..huh. Yes?

Something.

What? Yes, yes? Something...

..shreddible. Ha-ha-ha.

Wahey. Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.

Yay! Yay!

Yeah. Yeah.
