Script

 * (We open this episode with the Thomas and Friends Season 7 intro)
 * (After that, we begin the character introduction)
 * Alec Baldwin: Thomas is a really useful engine. Here's Percy. He is a very happy engine. James is a magnificent engine. Gordon is the most fastest engine on the Island of Sodor. Henry is long and fast. Here's Edward always here to help. Toby is a different engine, he's a tram engine.
 * (A passing by sequence occurs and we begin Percy's Chocolate Crunch)
 * Alec Baldwin: Sir Topham Hatt's engines love being shiny and clean. It makes them feel cheerful as they puffed across the Island of Sodor. Percy often has the dirtiest work to do. But he likes to be clean as well as any other engine. So washdowns are important to Percy. But Sir Topham Hatt had bad news.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Due to a water shortage...
 * Alec Baldwin: He said.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: ...no engine shall have more than one washdown a day. Usefulness before cleanliness.
 * Alec Baldwin: He added and left. Percy was upset.
 * Percy: I get dirty.
 * Alec Baldwin: He complained.
 * Percy: I need washdowns. Gordon only does it to feel important.
 * Gordon: I am important.
 * Alec Baldwin: Gordon sniffed.
 * Gordon: I'm an express engine.
 * James: You're a pouty puffer, Percy.
 * Alec Baldwin: Teased James.
 * Percy: No, I'm not.
 * Alec Baldwin: Wheeshed Percy and he chuffed away. Percy was loading freight cars at the docks. He was trying extra hard to stay clean. But the troublesome trucks were being naughty. As Percy pushed them under the coal chute, they sang out.
 * Troublesome Trucks: On! On! On!
 * Alec Baldwin: They cried. Percy found himself under the chute and coal dust flew everywhere.
 * Percy: Oh, no. (coughs)
 * Alec Baldwin: Coughed Percy.
 * Percy: I'm filthy.
 * Alec Baldwin: Percy felt awful, but he knew he had to carry on. On the way to Callan Station, the troublesome trucks teased Percy even more.
 * Troublesome Trucks: Clickety clack, don't look back, dirty Percy's on our track.
 * Percy: Be quiet!
 * Alec Baldwin: Percy snapped. When Percy arrived at Callan Station he was very upset.
 * Percy: From now on I am only doing work where I wont get dirty.
 * Alec Baldwin: Harold the Helicopter was at Callan station picking up medical supplies.
 * Harold: Hello, Percy.
 * Alec Baldwin: He called. And he took off blowing cinders and ashes everywhere.
 * Percy: Not again!
 * Alec Baldwin: Percy cried.
 * Percy: I want a washdown.
 * Percy's Driver: Usefulness before cleanliness.
 * Alec Baldwin: Reminded his driver.
 * Percy: I want to be useful where I can't get dirty.
 * Alec Baldwin: Percy huffed.
 * Percy's Driver: There's a load of sugar going to the chocolate factory.
 * Alec Baldwin: His driver said.
 * Percy's Driver: We can take the sugar cars.
 * Percy: Sugar.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Percy.
 * Percy: That's nice and clean.
 * Alec Baldwin: Percy was pleased. Percy didn't know that earlier a leaky freight car had spilled oil on the track. When he approached the chocolate factory, his driver applied the brakes. But Percy's wheels just skidded on the oily rails.
 * Percy: Oh, no!
 * Alec Baldwin: Hooted Percy.
 * (Percy crashes into the factory and six windows splat themselves as he pops out)
 * Percy: Yuck!
 * Alec Baldwin: He groaned.
 * Percy: I've never been this dirty.
 * Alec Baldwin: He was covered from funnel to firebox in sticky gooey chocolate. Back at the sheds, everyone thought it was very funny.
 * Thomas: You look good enough to eat.
 * Alec Baldwin: Thomas hooted.
 * James: Bon-bon Percy.
 * Alec Baldwin: Teased James.
 * Henry: Choc-ice on wheels.
 * Alec Baldwin: Chipped in Henry.
 * Gordon: Disgraceful.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Gordon pompously.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Ahem.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said a stern sounding voice. It was Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: You've had a trying day, Percy.
 * Alec Baldwin: He said.
 * Percy: Yes, sir.
 * Alec Baldwin: Replied Percy from beneath the chocolate.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: But you showed us all that usefulness does come before cleanliness. So...
 * Alec Baldwin: He added.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: You shall have your washdown.
 * Percy: Oh, sir.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: And a new coat of paint.
 * Alec Baldwin: Percy just beamed.
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Percy's Seaside Trip)
 * (Rooster crows)
 * Children: (singing) The sun is shining, it's a lovely day. It won't be long before we're on our way. The guard is waiting, flag in hand. He blows his whistle, we're off to sea and sand. The sky is blue, there's not a cloud in sight, So much excitement, didn't sleep all night. Now Percy's rushing trough the countryside, With people waving as we (peep peep) whistle by. Seaside, we're off to the seaside. Ice cream in cones, Candy floss on your nose. Seaside, we're off to the seaside, We're gonna have a lovely day. Just one more hill to climb and we'll be there. Sounds of the seaside start to fill the air. Then someone shouts out excitedly.
 * Girl: "Look over there, everybody, I can see the sea!"
 * Children: (singing) Seaside, we're off to the seaside, Buckets and spades, all the fairground arcades. Seaside, we're off to the seaside, We're gonna have a lovely day. And when it's cold in wintertime, Still you can be there any time. Just close your eyes, count 1-2-3, Dream your dream and once again be by the sea. Sir Topham Hatt arrives to greet the train. He is so pleased that Percy's right on time. So much excitement, so much glee. We're all together with Percy by the sea. Seaside, we're all at the seaside, Building sandcastles with buckets and spades. Seaside, we're all at the seaside. Oh, what a lovely, lovely, day. Seaside, we're all at the seaside, Picnics and paddling, swimming all day. Seaside, we're all at the seaside, Oh, what a lovely, lovely day. Thank you, Percy, for such a lovely day.
 * (Children cheering)
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Buffer Bother)
 * Alec Baldwin: Bill and Ben are quarry engines. They are twins. They play together, they shunt freight cars together. They even get up to naughtiness together.
 * (Bill and Ben hit each other with freight cars and leave them behind)
 * Alec Baldwin: Whenever you find Bill you will find Ben. Whether you find Ben you will find Bill. Sir Topham Hatt had come to inspect his quarry engines. He found that Mavis and Bill were in fine working order.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Unfortunately, Ben.
 * Alec Baldwin: Sir Topham Hatt said.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Your buffers are damaged. You must report to the engine works immediately for a new set of buffers. Mavis you will have to work with Bill until Ben returns.
 * Mavis: Yes sir.
 * Alec Baldwin: Replied Mavis and Sir Topham Hatt drove away. Ben was happy.
 * Ben: I'm going to get new buffers!
 * Alec Baldwin: He gloated to Bill.
 * Bill: Well I should get new buffers too.
 * Alec Baldwin: Bill complained.
 * Bill: We're twins. We do everything together.
 * Ben: But you don't need new buffers.
 * Alec Baldwin: Ben teased.
 * Bill: You're getting new buffers because you're getting clumsy.
 * Alec Baldwin: Snorted Bill enviously.
 * Ben: No I'm not!
 * Bill: Yes you are!
 * Ben: No I'm not!
 * Bill: Yes you are!
 * Mavis: Will you two stop being crackpots?
 * Alec Baldwin: Mavis scolded.
 * Mavis: Now come on, Bill, we've got work to do.
 * Alec Baldwin: Ben couldn't wait to get new buffers. Later, Bill watched as Ben chuffed away to the engine works. He was green with envy, he wanted new buffers too. Bill returned to his job but he wasn't thinking about work. All he could think about was Ben's new buffers.
 * (Bill and the flatbed run into some buffers)
 * Bill: Ooh!
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Bill.
 * Bill: (sneezes)
 * Mavis: Be careful.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Mavis.
 * Mavis: And stop thinking about Ben's new buffers.
 * Alec Baldwin: Bill tried thinking about birds, he tried thinking about trees, he tried thinking about anything but Ben and his brand new buffers. But it didn't work.
 * Bill: I want new buffers too!
 * Alec Baldwin: He cried.
 * Mavis: Just be happy you're in good working order.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Mavis.
 * Bill: It's not fair!
 * Alec Baldwin: Bill huffed and he wheeshed soot all over Mavis.
 * Mavis: Bill!
 * Alec Baldwin: Gasped Mavis.
 * Bill: Oops, sorry.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Bill. Bill tried his best to get with his work. But the troublesome trucks had spotted a chance for a tease.
 * Trucks: Poor poor Bill, he works, he suffers, while Ben his twin gets brand new buffers! This made Bill very cross
 * (The troublesome trucks giggling)
 * Bill: I might not have new buffers.
 * Alec Baldwin: He said.
 * Bill: But I still know how to biff troublesome trucks.
 * Mavis: No!
 * Alec Baldwin: Mavis cried.
 * (Bill pushes a truck and accidentally falls into a pit)
 * Alec Baldwin: But it was too late. Ben puffed into the quarry with his shiny new buffers just in time to hear...
 * Bill: Bust my buffers!
 * Alec Baldwin: Cried Bill.
 * Ben: I think you have.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Ben. When Sir Topham Hatt arrived and saw Bill's broken buffers, he was not happy.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: You have behaved badly Bill.
 * Alec Baldwin: Sir Topham Hatt said.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Do you have anything to say for yourself?
 * Bill: Yes, sir. I'm sorry, sir.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Bill.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Before you get new buffers.
 * Alec Baldwin: Sir Topham Hatt continued.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I want you to think what it means to be a responsible reliable engine.
 * Bill: Yes Sir.
 * Alec Baldwin: Answered Bill weakly. After Sir Topham Hatt had left, Ben rolled up to Bill with his new buffers gleaming.
 * Bill: They are nice buffers.
 * Alec Baldwin: Bill said.
 * Ben: Thanks.
 * Alec Baldwin: Ben said.
 * Ben: I'm sorry I teased you.
 * Bill: That's all right.
 * Alec Baldwin: Bill said.
 * Bill: I was naughty too.
 * Ben: Of course you are.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Ben.
 * Ben: We're twins.
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining)
 * (James' whistle toots)
 * Children: (singing) Life is full of surprises, full of ups and downs And so to have a silver lining, first there must be cloud. Bill and Ben the twins work together all day long. They sometimes disagree how things are done. They get down in the dumps If things they do don't work out just as planned. But if at first you don't succeed then understand. There's no sense in worrying if things start going wrong. Obstacles can all be overcome. But even Bill and Ben both agree that in the end. If you never lose hope, you're sure to cope and carry on. Every cloud is silver-lined, even when it rains. So don't get too downhearted, as things are bound to change. All you've gotta do is wear a smile and you will find. Your sun will shine. So if you've got a job to do, make sure you do it well. Arguing will get you nowhere fast. When Bill says "Push", and Ben says "Pull", They always get it wrong. But never lose hope, you're sure to cope and carry on. Every cloud is silver-lined, even when it rains. So don't get too downhearted, as things are bound to change. All you've gotta do is wear a smile and you will find. Your sun will shine. Everybody makes mistakes it happens all the time. You should never lose sight of your goal. Just like Bill and Ben things will work out in the end. If you never lose hope, you're sure to cope and carry on. When you're feeling down it doesn't help to wear a frown. Never lose hope, you're sure to cope and you can carry on. Every cloud is silver-lined to help you on your way. As long as there's hope, it'll help you cope. You must never lose hope, it'll help you on the way.
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Toby Had A Little Lamb)
 * Alec Baldwin: Winter on the Island of Sodor can be windy and cold. When the cold wind blows, the engines can't wait to get back to the snug warm of Tidmouth Sheds.
 * Toby: Bitter cold, bitter cold, bitter cold.
 * Alec Baldwin: Chuffed Toby.
 * Toby: Still, I'll soon be back in my nice dry shed.
 * Alec Baldwin: But suddenly, Toby's driver applied the brakes. He could see a farmer standing neat deep in snow. He was waving a red flag.
 * Farmer McColl: Mah phone lines are down, all the roads are blocked and my sheep had just started lambing.
 * Alec Baldwin: The farmer said.
 * Farmer McColl: They're trapped on the hillside, cut off by the snow.
 * Toby: What can we do to help?
 * Alec Baldwin: Toby chuffed.
 * Farmer McColl: I need a vet as quickly as possible.
 * Toby's Driver: We'll stop at the next signalbox.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Toby's Driver.
 * Toby's Driver: I'll phone the vet from there.
 * Alec Baldwin: Toby raced to the signalbox and the driver phoned ahead to the station. Sir Topham Hatt and The Vet were waiting for Toby as he arrived.
 * Toby: The farmer's lambs are stranded on the hillside!
 * Alec Baldwin: Cried Toby.
 * Toby: We've got to rescue them!
 * Sir Topham Hatt: So we shall.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I'll send Duck right away. This is a job for an engine with a snowplow.
 * Alec Baldwin: Toby knew Duck was the right engine for the job. He was very powerful.
 * Toby: Hurry!
 * Alec Baldwin: Toby called anxiously, as Duck chuffed out of the station. But so much snow had fallen, the tracks ahead were blocked.
 * Duck's Driver: We can't go on.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Duck's driver grimly.
 * Duck's Driver: We'll have to go back.
 * Alec Baldwin: Toby was surprised to see Duck return to the station.
 * Duck: I tried my hardest.
 * Alec Baldwin: Puffed Duck.
 * Duck: But the weather's getting worse.
 * Duck's Driver: Even Duck's snowplow can't get through.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said his driver. Then, Toby had an idea.
 * Toby: My old branch line runs out there, sir, remember?
 * Sir Topham Hatt: That's far too dangerous.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: It would never carry Duck's weight.
 * Toby: It might take my weight.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Toby.
 * Toby: And I know that line on the back of my buffers.
 * Alec Baldwin: He added.
 * Toby: It's our only chance to help the new born lambs.
 * Alec Baldwin: Sir Topham Hatt agreed, but he told Toby to be very careful. Soon, a blizzard was howling. Toby's driver was worried.
 * Toby: I can do it.
 * Alec Baldwin: Called Toby.
 * Toby: As long as these rails hold.
 * Alec Baldwin: But Toby had forgotten about the rickety old bridge.
 * Toby: Help! My wheels are wobbling!
 * Alec Baldwin: He cried. His driver fought for control as Toby struggled on.
 * Toby: I've got to reach the other side of this bridge.
 * Alec Baldwin: Gasped Toby.
 * Toby: Those lambs need me.
 * Alec Baldwin: The farmer was waiting. It was very cold. Suddenly, a ghostly glowing eye shone from the snowstorm. It was Toby's headlamp.
 * Farmer McColl: You've made it!
 * Alec Baldwin: Cried the farmer.
 * Farmer McColl: What a brave engine you are.
 * Alec Baldwin: The vet and the farmer went to find the lambs. But they soon returned.
 * Vet: The lambs are safe and sound, Toby.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said the vet.
 * Vet: But we need a place now to keep the little ones warm.
 * Alec Baldwin: Toby smiled.
 * Toby: I'll think you'll find Henrietta as plenty of room.
 * Alec Baldwin: Toby stayed for several days just to make sure the lambs were all right. The farmer was very grateful.
 * Farmer McColl: Thank you, Toby.
 * Alec Baldwin: He said.
 * Farmer McColl: We could've done it without you.
 * Toby: Thank you.
 * Alec Baldwin: Said Toby.
 * Toby: There's nothing I like better than helping out a friend in need.
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Toby)
 * Children: (singing) North of the island, there lives a dear old train, a little tram engine, Toby is his name. He's quaint and old fashioned, but careful and wise. His coach is Henrietta and she's seen better days. His mind keeps returning to the good old days. When they were busy working everyday. But nobody rides with them nowadays. They can't understand why things have changed. Their line is closing down today, forever. Toby, oh Toby. What will become of you? The world's much nicer whenever we see you. Toby, dear Toby. There's still lots that you can do. Oldies but goldies, we still care about you. All of the children came to say goodbye. They clapped and cheered as Toby rang his bell, "Bye-bye." Everyone was sad to see them go. Whatever will they do, and where will they go? Suddenly news came to brighten up their day. How Toby and Henrietta were needed right away. The Fat Controller had written to say, could they please come and help right away. Now they're part of his family forever. Toby, oh Toby. Show them what you can do. The world's much nicer whenever we see you. Toby, dear Toby. There's so much to learn from you. Oldies but goldies, we still care about you. Oldies but goldies, we still care for you.
