Seesaw[1] is the twenty-eighth episode of Season Two of Bluey.
Synopsis
Bluey and Bingo are playing with their friend Pom Pom, but Pom Pom is small and finds it hard to keep up.
Bluey and Bingo decide to play seesaw together instead, but when Dad rudely plonks himself at the end of the plank, the only way to get rid of him is to out weigh him.[2]
Bluey rounds up the kids in the playground to help, but even Coco's fluffy fur isn't heavy enough to budge Dad. They are all out of kids, until they remember Pom Pom.
She struggles and struggles, but finally makes it up the plank. Now they can flip Dad off the seesaw! Pom Pom may be small, but Pomeranians area hardy breed.
Dad has rudely plonked himself on one end of the seesaw. So Bluey and Bingo round up the entire playground to help flip him off, but they still need to find one more friend.[2]

Trivia
- The soundtrack in this episode is based on Handel's Concerti a due cori No.2 - specifically the Allegro ma non troppo theme.
- The title translates to "Concerto for two choirs", referring to the division of the wind instruments into two groups. Allegro ma non troppo means "lively but not too fast."
- This is the first appearance of Pom Pom and Pom Pom's Mum.
- Bluey is seen doing a cartwheel when running away from Chilli. Her ability to do cartwheels comes up again in Barky Boats
- The blanket shown is the same one from Blue Mountains.
- Chilli and Pom Pom's Mum discuss the cliffhanger ending of season 3 of a TV show. From the details of their discussion, they appear to be discussing the Netflix original series Stranger Things. Chilli references the From Russia with love... teaser, which means the events of this episode takes place after February 14, 2020.
- Bandit references Thai-style massage when Bluey attempts to pull him off the swing. Rather than kneading the recipient's muscles like in most massage techniques, Thai massage focuses on stretching and rocking motions, assisted by the masseuse's body weight.
- Chilli mentions that her dad has had heartworm, and they're going to visit him next week - which would place this episode before Grandad chronologically.
- Long Dog: This long dog is seemingly made of concrete. It can be found under the picnic park bench after the seesaw full of kids calls to Pom Pom.
- Bandit is revealed to weigh about as much as Bluey, Bingo, Chloe, and Coco combined (since he needed to weigh the seesaw down more when the four of them were on the other side).
- When this episode aired on Disney Channel in the US, it was paired with Movies and Grandad.
- The storyboarder for this episode is Suzy Brumm, who is the wife to Joe Brumm, and is Pom Pom's Mum's voice actress.
