[laughing]

Whoo-hoo!

[engine chugging slows]

Rebecca always sees the best

in everyone.

Even Diesel.

So when he asked for help,

she didn't realize

he was playing a...

[chuckles]

Wait. Why am I telling you?

You can see what happened

right now.

[whistle toots]

All aboard for a big adventure.

[owls hooting]

[Thomas]

"Diesel Do Right."

[bird cawing]

[Sir Topham Hatt]

Diesel!

Today, you caused

confusion and delay,

so, tomorrow, I want you to

take these cars to the docks

before the rest of your jobs

at Knapford Yard.

Yes, sir.

Sorry, sir.

Hmm, Sir Topham Hatt

is always picking on me.

No one else ever gets

into trouble.

Just because I took some cars

to the waste dump.

[all laughing]

What?

Well, you were supposed to

take those cars to the docks.

[scoffs]

I was in a hurry.

Now I have to go to the docks

before I even start

my other jobs.

Can anyone help me?

Oh. Um, I could do it.

No, Sidney, you've got

to pick up the parts

so we can fix up Philip.

What he means is,

you've got to fix

your own problems, Diesel.

[scoffs]

Silly diesels.

How would they like

to be in trouble all the time?

[horn toots]

It's not fair.

I make one teensy-weensy

little mistake

and suddenly I'm the bad one.

I'm just as important

as any other engine.

Maybe even more important.

[Salty]

Ahoy, Rebecca,

there's many a

ship here this morning,

so excuse me

if I don't hang about.

Oh, no problem, Salty.

Let me know

if I can lend a wheel.

I'm always happy to help.

[gasps] I know a way to get

the other diesels in trouble.

[snickers]

Oh, no. Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Oh, woe is me.

Are you all right, Diesel?

[gasps]

Oh, no, Rebecca.

I need help.

Could you lend me a wheel?

Oh, sure thing, Diesel.

What is it

that you need me to do?

Pick up that flatbed

of parts over there

and take it to McColl's farm.

No problem, Diesel.

Will do.

Then, collect all the fruit

and take it to the quarry.

Oh, and another thing.

While you're there,

pick up the stone

and take it to Vicarstown Yard.

Oh, so much to do.

I'd better get on.

[horn toots]

[horn toots]

[Paxton] Hi, Terence!

[horn toots]

Where's the fruit and veg

to take to Tidmouth Market?

Oh, Rebecca

took those already.

But that was supposed

to be my job.

Where did she take them?

Hello.

Uh, where are my cars of stone

for the castle?

Rebecca took them.

And she left

all this fruit and veg.

♪ Ha, ha, hahey, hey, hey ♪♪ Pick up the steeland take it to the docks ♪♪ Then collect a flatbedof parts for Philip ♪♪ Something,something, something ♪♪ That rhymes with Philip ♪

Oh.

Oh!

Where's the steel?

I thought this was where

the steel was supposed to be.

[whistle toots]

Oh, it's not steel

we need today, Rebecca.

-It's stone.

-Oh!

-But Diesel said--

-Diesel?

You should know better

than to listen to him.

Oh, no. Really?

He said he needed help.

I thought I was helping.

[laughs]

Where's the market?

It looks like

the fruit and veg never arrived.

Has anybody seen my steel?

Or a flatbed of parts

for, um...

Oh, who was it?

Um...

Um, uh, sorry, Philip.

We can't fix you up today.

What he means is,

Sidney didn't deliver

the parts.

[cow moos]

[Sir Topham Hatt]

I don't know what got

into you diesels today.

Paxton, you didn't do your job.

Neither did you, Sidney.

And, Norman,

usually so reliable.

What happened?

Poor old Philip has been

hanging around all day.

O-kay!

In fact, the only diesel

who has done their job

properly today is Diesel.

Oh, well, you know me, sir.

Diesel Do Right.

Just trying

to be really useful.

[chuckles weakly]

[horn toots]

[Rebecca] I'm slowing down.

-Huh?

-I'm slowing down.

-[grunts]

-Oops.

Ah, sorry, Thomas.

Diesel, Millie said

it was stone they needed

at Ulfstead Castle today,

not steel.

But you told me to take

the stone to Vicarstown.

[chuckles weakly]

Ah, and what else did Diesel

ask you to do today?

Well, he asked me to take

the flatbed of parts

to the farm,

and the fruits and veg

to the quarry.

-Oh.

-So that's what happened

to my fruit and veg.

-Now we know what happened.

-That explains everything.

Diesel!

-[exclaims]

-Oh, no you don't.

You come out here

and face the music.

Not again.

It's not fair.

I can't do right even when

I haven't done anything wrong.

Well, not much.

Some people like

playing tricks.

But tricks can backfire.

One time, Bill and Benplayed a trick on Mia,hiding her carso she couldn't find it.But when Bill and Bentried to trick Edward,he tricked them instead.When Diesel was cross,he decided to getthe other diesels into troubleby sending Rebeccato do their jobs badly.But, of course,Diesel's trickwas found out in the end.

It's not your fault

if someone plays

a trick on you.

But if you play a trick

and it gets you in trouble,

well, you only

have yourself to blame.

Come on, Thomas.

It's time to go.

See ya next time!
