07x02 - Percy Gets It Right

- ("Thomas and

Friends Theme Song")

- [Voiceover] At harvest

time, the air is filled

with the smell of fresh

fruit and vegetables.

The engines happily deliver

their loads to market.

But one day, mist and rain

swirl down Toby's line.

Percy was delivering a

load of fresh tomatoes.

Suddenly, he felt a big bump.

"Bust my buffers!" Percy

cried, "What was that?"

The guard put out the

warning flags while

Percy's driver

inspected the tracks.

"The earth's

crumbling," he said.

"We must tell Sir Topham

Hatt," decided Percy.

Percy puffed back

as fast as he could.

"I've got important news!

The tracks on Toby's

line are wobbly!"

"Hmph," huffed Gordon,

"Old and wobbly?

Just like Toby. That's not news.

Can't stop to listen

to your silly chatter."

"Gordon never listens

to me," muttered Percy.

Next he spoke to Sir

Topham Hatt, "Sir! Sir!"

"Not now, Percy. Thomas, you

are to collect the prized bull.

He's at the farm

on Toby's line."

"Yes sir."

"But those tracks are

wobbly!" cried Percy.

"They are safe enough,"

said Sir Topham Hatt.

"Bye Percy!"

"Nobody ever listens to me."

Thomas was carefully

chuffing through the rain.

Soon he had collected

the farmer's bull

(bull bellows) and

was on his way back.

The rain had made the tracks

more wobbly than ever.

Suddenly there was a

deep rumbling sound.

Thomas' driver applied the

breaks but it was too late.

(crash) "Cinders and

ashes!" cried Thomas,

"We're stuck!" And they were.

Late that night, Thomas

still hadn't returned.

Percy was worried, "Thomas

is in trouble," he said.

Gordon and James took no notice.

"Worry wheels," huffed Gordon.

"Fussy funnel," said James.

"Please," Percy asked his

driver, "Can we find Thomas?"

"Right away!" said his driver.

(Dramatic music)

Percy was nervous,

but his lamp shone

brightly in the dark.

The tracks creaked and

wobbled but Percy pressed on.

"Percy!" cried Thomas.

Thomas was very happy

to see his friend.

"I'll have you out of there

in no time!" said Percy.

Percy puffed, and pulled,

and pulled, and puffed,

and finally Thomas and

his driver were free.

"Oh, thank you!" said Thomas.

"I'm glad to be

useful!" smiled Percy.

It was dawn before

the tack was clear.

Then Percy and Thomas

made their way back home.

"Thomas is here!"

whistled Percy.

"Percy saved the

day!" said Thomas.

"Mmm!" agreed the bull.

"I'm sorry Percy,"

said Sir Topham Hatt,

"We must do a better job of

listening to you in the future."

Percy was pleased.
