(gentle music)

- [Michael] It was a splendid

day on the island of Sodor.

Thomas was taking Annie and

Clarabel back to the yards.

A new engine had arrived

and he wanted to say hello.

The engine was beautiful,

with shiny paintwork and

a gleaming brass dome.

"Thomas, meet Emily."

"Hello, Emily."

"Hello, Thomas."

"Emily, collect your coaches.

"You and your driver

must learn the line."

"Yes, sir," she answered.

(gentle music)

Thomas was impressed.

Later, the only coaches

Emily's driver could find

were Annie and Clarabel.

"These aren't your sort

of coaches," he said.

"But I suppose they'll do."

Annie and Clarabel

felt insulted.

"How dare he say we'll

do," Clarabel whispered.

(playful music)

Emily puffed carefully

along the track.

"How dare he say we'll do,

how dare he say we'll do,"

grumbled the coaches.

Thomas saw Emily

coming down the line

pulling Annie and Clarabel.

"Hello, Thomas," Emily

called, but Thomas was cross.

"Those are my coaches.

"Give them back!"

But Emily didn't hear Thomas

and she went on her way.

Then Edward passed.

(Emily whistling)

And Percy.

(Emily whistling)

When, Emily whistled hello, the

engines didn't whistle back.

Emily couldn't understand

why they were so unfriendly.

She was upset.

Later, Sir Topham

Hatt spoke to Thomas.

"I want you to go to the

docks to pick up new coaches."

"New coaches?

"But sir."

"Really useful engines don't

argue," said Sir Topham Hatt.

Thomas didn't want new coaches.

He wanted Annie

and Clarabel back.

When Oliver saw Emily return

to the yards, he was surprised.

"Those are Thomas's coaches."

"So that's why he looked

cross," exclaimed Emily.

"I'll go and apologize."

(playful music)

"Don't want new coaches,

"don't want new

coaches," chuffed Thomas.

Later, Emily was still

looking for Thomas,

when a signalman

flagged her down.

"Oliver hasn't cleared

his signal box,"

he told Emily's driver.

"Please go and

see what's wrong."

Emily could see that Oliver had

broken down on the crossing.

(dramatic music)

Then Emily heard

Thomas's whistle.

(Thomas whistling)

"Oh dear!"

Thomas could see Oliver.

He knew he could

never stop in time.

"Help!"

Emily charged towards Oliver,

(Thomas whistling)

and with a huge effort,

pushed him across the tracks

just in time.

(Thomas whistling)

"Thanks."

"We did it."

Later, Sir Topham

Hatt praised Emily.

"Well done, you were

a very brave engine."

"The bravest," chuffed Oliver.

"It gives me great

pleasure to present you

"with two new coaches."

"Thank you, sir," replied Emily.

"Thomas, I'm sorry I

took Annie and Clarabel."

"And I'm sorry I was so

cross," replied Thomas.

"Friends?"

"Friends!"

(playful music)

(Oliver whistling)

Emily loves her

coaches and being part

of Sir Topham Hatt's railway.

(Emily whistling)

(playful music)
