- The new Super Numtum comic is here! - ALL: Hooray!
- Wow! - Ooh!
Inside this ancient pyramid is something that's going to
help me take over the world! Ha-ha-ha!
As well as pointy buildings, people used to make magical hats
and we are going to get one.
It's called the thinking cap.
It makes whoever wears it the best at thinking
and that means much cleverer than Not-So-Super Numtum.
It's just down one of these passages.
We'd better pick the right passage or you might fall into a trap.
Let's see...
1 + 2 is...
4.
Now, which of these shapes has four sides?
The circle. Go down the passage that has a circle above it.
What were you doing in there?! I told you before,
1 + 2 is...
em, 5.
So we need the shape with five sides. That's...em...
Oh, let's try the triangle passage.
We made it!
That's not a magical hat!
That's Not-So-Super Numtum!
A-ha! I'm sending the hat where it belongs, to a museum,
right after I send you where you belong -
straight to bed!
Popsadoodles! Now he can send me to bed just by thinking about it.
Not fair! How did you even get to that hat before me?
By the power of the number!
- Oh, I'd love an adventure like that! - But where could we find one?
I wish we had a mysterious pyramid to sneak into.
- Or a particular puzzle to solve. - Or a magical hat to find.
Every now and again, a Numpup needs an adventure
and I might just have the perfect one.
I finished baking the golden treat,
the most delicious treat I've ever made.
But, seeing as you need an adventure, I'll make you a deal.
If you can get it, you can eat it.
There's nothing adventurous about getting something from the kitchen.
Not yet, but I'm about to make it a lot harder than you think.
Back in a tick!
No-one is opening that safe in a hurry.
Now, what else?
A-ha!
And now I need a guard.
Oh, Flinders!
FLINDERS YAWNS What is going on in here?
A little adventure for the Numpups.
They want to get their paws on my golden treat.
Your mission is to make sure they don't.
Yes, ma'am! You can count on me!
Can you sit there and be my guard?
If you see anybody go near the safe, yell out.
And remember, whatever you do, don't fall asleep!
DING!
I think we're just about ready for our adventure.
Whoa! Nice work, Gladdy. We'd better get our thinking caps on.
Here's a drawing of the kitchen.
There are so many obstacles I don't know how we will get in.
All we need is a plan. Let's think.
Got it! We'll use a helicopter.
- We don't have a helicopter. - Good point. How about a spaceship?
Who needs a spaceship when you've got spoons?
We'll dig our way in.
That way, we can get past all the obstacles at once.
By my calculations, we can dig right to the middle of...
..the kitchen.
This doesn't look like the kitchen.
We're going to need a new plan.
I've got a new plan! Step one, get Gladdy away from the kitchen.
Uh-huh.
Step two, sneak past Flinders. He's guarding the treat.
Oooh!
Step three, get to the safe through a web of wool.
When we are past the wool, it's time for step four - open the safe.
That's where Gladdy keeps the golden treat.
The problem is, Gladdy is right there.
It's not like we can just ask her to leave.
We can't, but Larry can. He can sound like anything, even Numtums.
Numtums like Cousin Kakadu!
Exactly!
FLINDERS SNORES
PHONE RINGS
Tasty Termite, all the treats you can eat. How may I help you?
Hi, Gladdy! Kakadu here.
It's the Crocodile Wrestling Championships today
- and I was wondering... - I'm on my way!
OK, Gladdy. See you soon.
That was brilliant! There's just one more thing we need you to do.
- Delivery! - Oh, a delivery? OK, then.
Can you put them in the kitchen? I'm just off to see Cousin Kakadu.
Toodles!
- What we do now? - Step two, sneak past Flinders.
Everybody, open portholes.
How will we ever get past?!
He's falling asleep, look!
DING! I'm awake! I'm awake!
We have to make a run for it at just the right moment.
Wait for it...
- FLINDERS SNORES - Now!
Stop!
DING!
Is it morning already?
Dar Dar, now!
FLINDERS SNORES
Great plan, Sandy. Now can we get the treat? I'm hungry!
Sorry, Humpty, not yet. It's time for step three -
get to the safe through a web of wool.
Look, those springs will rattle and wake Flinders.
Hmm, one of us will have to climb through
and untie the string that is holding it up.
We all know who is best at climbing.
- Do we? - It's me, of course!
Here goes.
You'll never get through that way.
But look! There is a path.
It is a square, a triangle
and then a rectangle.
That's not a path, that's just a load of shapes.
It is a path, trust me.
Here goes.
Easy! What's next?
Triangle. Look for a shape with three sides.
- There it is! - You'll never fit through that.
Just watch! They don't call me Bendy for nothing.
Now for the tricky part!
Huh? Wasn't that the tricky part?
Uh-uh! The rectangle, two equal short sides, two equal long sides.
Let's see how low I can go.
We're so close! Time for step four - open the safe.
Look! There's a picture of us on it.
Hmm, not just pictures, a sum. Look!
I can't do sums with an empty tummy!
First I'll eat the treat, then I'll do the maths.
Oh, no! We've started a countdown!
We only have 20 seconds until the alarm goes off and wakes Flinders.
We'd better solve the sum... and quickly!
Er... Em...
Er...
Um...
Er...
The answer is on our tummies! Bendy is 1, Dar Dar is 2.
1 + 2 is... Er...
3!
Thanks, Champer. So let's press the shape with three sides.
It's the triangle!
- Wow! The golden treat! - Finally,
time for step five - eat the treat!
Why is there a camera in here?
A-ha! A photo from the safe-cam. Let's have a look.
Nom... Urgh! That's not delicious!
- That's cardboard! - It's a fake!
Surprise! Everyone knows the Crocodile Wrestling Championships
aren't for ages. You can't fool me.
Our plan was even worse than Fluffy McTuffy's!
It was a clever plan, just not as clever as me.
But you came close and, in my book, that means...
golden treats all round!
- Mm-mm-mm! - ALL: Hooray!
