0:03:05 > 0:03:07Which one is Billy?
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Hey, Billy, what are you doing?
0:03:10 > 0:03:13I'm having myself a little hoedown.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15- A what-down?- A hoedown? Oh...
0:03:15 > 0:03:18It's Sundown Hoedown Day back in Echidna Falls
0:03:18 > 0:03:22and all the echidnas will be having a great time!
0:03:22 > 0:03:24A bit like this(!)
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Who are your friends?
0:03:29 > 0:03:30Milly the Kidna,
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Vanilly the Kidna, Tilly the Kidna,
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Zilly the Kidna, Quilly the Kidna, and Dave.
0:03:36 > 0:03:41Oh, it's been years since I was a at a real sundown hoedown.
0:03:41 > 0:03:42Just as the sun goes down,
0:03:42 > 0:03:46we all get together and let our quills down
0:03:46 > 0:03:50and then finish off with the grand ole hoedown supper.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53But Echidna Falls is so far away,
0:03:53 > 0:03:55I couldn't go all the way back there,
0:03:55 > 0:04:00so I wanted to make Echidna Sundown Hoedown on my own.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Oh, Billy, don't be sad.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05If you really want one of those hoedown things,
0:04:05 > 0:04:06we'll have one right here.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Just for you, Billy.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11You will? A hoedown? Just for little me?
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Can Numtums do hoedowns?
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Numtums can do anything.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18But can they do this?
0:04:18 > 0:04:21HE MOOS LIKE A COW
0:04:23 > 0:04:24I didn't think so.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29If you can do a real hoedown I'll be the happiest echidna ever.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33I better get ready. It's hoedown time. Whoo-whoo!
0:04:35 > 0:04:37I think you need to go sideways.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Ha-ha! Oh, yeah.
0:04:41 > 0:04:46- Oh, question, question. - Yes, Chumper.- What is a hoedown?
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Galloping guinea pigs!
0:04:48 > 0:04:51We need to find out what a hoedown is - and quickly.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54We're on it.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56And I'll get started on the supper.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Oh, oh, can I help you?
0:04:58 > 0:05:03I have a special way with termite treats. Mmm.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07My special termite towers will put a smile on Billy's face.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10Ooh, they're certainly putting a smile on my face,
0:05:10 > 0:05:13but I think there's one thing missing.
0:05:13 > 0:05:14What's that, Humpty Do?
0:05:14 > 0:05:17More termite treats.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- That's a great idea.- Thanks.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26Nifty Quiff. Be the star of every hoedown
0:05:26 > 0:05:29with a glossy, shiny quiff!
0:05:29 > 0:05:30Oh...
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Hey!
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Looking sharp, Billy.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Hoedown-sharp!
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Well, a hoedown has lots of music
0:05:41 > 0:05:43and lots of special dancing.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46In one dance we're going to make a square shape.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50We need all four sides to be the same length.
0:05:52 > 0:05:53In another dance,
0:05:53 > 0:05:56we're all going to make a triangle,
0:05:56 > 0:05:59with three corners and three sides.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01But hardest of all, the circle dance,
0:06:01 > 0:06:04where we need to make a round circle shape.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Do you think us Numpups could land them?
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Maybe. How long have you got?
0:06:09 > 0:06:12A week, a month? A year?
0:06:12 > 0:06:14Until sundown today.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Galloping guinea pigs!
0:06:17 > 0:06:23- I think we've enough termite towers now, Humpty Do.- Just one more.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- Don't you want to join the dancing?- In a minute.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- You go and dance and I'll finish this.- Are you sure?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30I've never been surer.
0:06:30 > 0:06:34The sun has started to go down.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37It's nearly time to start the sundown hoedown.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39MUSIC PLAYS
0:06:39 > 0:06:42We'd better have a practice before Billy arrives.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Let's start with the square.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Yodel-ai-hee-hoo. I'm rather good at squares.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Just watch me and do what I do.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Erm, Hobart, what should I do?
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Teeth and tails, darling. Smile!
0:06:57 > 0:06:59No, no, no, this isn't right.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02You don't dance in pairs in a hoedown,
0:07:02 > 0:07:04that's what makes it special.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Everybody dances together to make a square.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11So we need to make the shape of a square with Numtums.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14That's right. Come on, Numpups, let's try again.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16MUSIC PLAYS
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Now, grab a paw and dance in a line
0:07:20 > 0:07:24Break in the middle You're doing just fine
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Two steps to the left Fall off the line
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Make the other side It's square-dance time...
0:07:31 > 0:07:32MUSIC STOPS
0:07:32 > 0:07:35I think we're definitely getting better.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38I don't understand. It should make a square.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Hmm. The thing about a square is,
0:07:40 > 0:07:42it has four equal sides.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45So, to make a Numtum square,
0:07:45 > 0:07:49we need the same number of Numtums on all four sides.
0:07:49 > 0:07:54By my calculations, what we need is one more dancer.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Ready and raring to go.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00Let me try that Numtum Sundown Hoedown dancing!
0:08:00 > 0:08:04Billy! Oh, great timing, you're just what we need.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06I sure am. Even a Numtum hoedown
0:08:06 > 0:08:09needs a little Kidna cool.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Take it away, Larry boy!
0:08:11 > 0:08:14MUSIC PLAYS
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Now grab a paw

0:08:22 > 0:08:24Two steps to the left
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Go off the line Make the other side
0:08:26 > 0:08:28It's square-dance time.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- ALL: Yay! - Go, Numtums!
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Oh, this is cool. Which dance are we doing next?
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Oh, I know, the flamingo swingo.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42This is a Kidna sundown hoedown,
0:08:42 > 0:08:44we need to dance in shapes.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47And the next shape we're going to make is the triangle.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Galloping guinea pigs,
0:08:49 > 0:08:52a triangle sounds trickier than a crotchety crocodile.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54By my calculations,
0:08:54 > 0:08:57we need three corners and three sides. No problem.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Start the music, Larry.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01MUSIC PLAYS
0:09:01 > 0:09:05First we need our corners three A triangle's easy, listen to me
0:09:08 > 0:09:13A triangle needs three sides too Short or long, it's up to you
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Now clap your hands And slap your knee
0:09:18 > 0:09:21A triangle dance With sides of three.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Supper's ready. Ooh! What you doing?
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Come and dance, Humpty Do.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33We're doing the circle dance next.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Now all hold paws And join the lines
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Skip as you go, it's circle time
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Now's the time to skip quite fast
0:09:46 > 0:09:48How long will this circle last?
0:09:52 > 0:09:54That circle dance looked mighty fine
0:09:54 > 0:09:58But now we're done It's time to dine!
0:09:58 > 0:10:01- ALL: Yeah! - Yee-ha!
