[Thomas narrating]

- It has to be here somewhere.

Ugh!

Hello, Nia.

Is something wrong?

- Oh, hi, Edward.

I'm looking for a covered car.

I left it here

when I went to get refueled,

and when I came back,

it was gone.

[laughter]

- Oh, all right, Bill and Ben,

where have you hidden

Nia's car?

- Don't ask me. [laughs]

- She'll just have to find it.

[laughter]

- But I need that car now.

It's important.

I don't want my train to be

late.

[laughter]

- Okay, then,

shall I take away the cars

I've brought for you two?

What would they say

at the clay pits

if you came back with no cars?

- Oh, fine.

I'll get it.

[whistle toots]

Spoilsport.

- I'm sorry about this, Nia.

It's their new game.

They call it "Hunt the Car."

- Nobody can hunt cars

better than us.

[metal clangs.

- Thanks, Edward!

[whistle toots]

- The trouble with you,

Edward...

- Is that you don't like games.

- No fun at all.

You're just...

both: Boring!

Bill and Ben were down

Along with presents

From port to starboard

Well, if it's not here,

Have you ever played a game

that got out of hand?

Sometimes a game

can stop being fun

or even hurt someone's

feelings.

One time, Diesel

played a trick on Paxton

by getting all the diesels

to hide from him.

Paxton was very upset

and thought all the diesels

had left the island.

Another time, I was racing

with Max and Monty.

It was good fun.

Until they took the game

too far.

They raced

over the railway line

and could have caused an

accident.

Bill and Ben thought their

game of Hunt the Car

was very funny

until they were the ones

who couldn't find their car.

Edward was trying to teach them

that it's not a good game

unless everyone who's playing

can enjoy it.

- Come on, Thomas!

- It's time to go.

- See you next time!
