The Numberjacks are alerted to the problem by their trusty computer friend, who sends them out on their latest mission to help solve the puzzle.
The episode begins with the Numberjacks taking note of their surroundings and observing the unique patterns and shapes that make up their world. They notice that some of the shapes are moving, while others are still. As they continue to observe, they notice that the patterns seem to be changing in a very specific way - with some shapes moving in and others moving out in a very deliberate sequence.
As they try to decipher the pattern, the Numberjacks begin to feel frustrated and confused. They try several different methods to figure out the sequence, but none of them seem to work. Eventually, they decide to take a break and try again later.
During their break, the Numberjacks play a game of 'shaky shake,' which helps them to feel more energized and focused. They then resume their quest to solve the problem, with a new determination to get to the bottom of things.

In the end, the Numberjacks celebrate their victory and thank their computer friend for sending them on the mission.

Overall, "In, Out, Shake It All About" is a fun and engaging episode that teaches kids about shapes, patterns, and the power of perseverance.
