Full Script

 * (Start of Transmission 1, we start with the Britt Allcroft Presents logo. Then, we start with the Thomas and Friends Season 5 intro, with Thomas, with Annie and Clarabel passing the windmill, as the "THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE & FRIENDS" logo appears. Then, the "BASED ON THE RAILWAY SERIES BY THE REV.W.AWDRY" logo appears, and then the "ADAPTATION BY BRITT ALLCROFT" logo. Then, we see Thomas passing under a bride, as the "THOMAS GETS TRICKED" title card appears. Finally, we see Thomas arriving at the last station, as the "TOLD BY GEORGE CARLIN" title card appears, and then the "DIRECTED BY DAVID MITTON" title card appears, then we start the first story.)
 * George Carlin: Thomas is a tank engine who lives at the big station of the Island of Sodor. He's a cheeky little engine with six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler and a short stumpy dome.
 * (Thomas sets to work)
 * George Carlin: He's a fussy little engine too. Always pulling coaches about ready for the big engines can take on long journeys. And when trains come in, he pulls the empty coaches away so that the big engines can go on rest. Thomas thinks no engine works has hard as he does. He loves playing tricks on them, including Gordon the biggest and proudest engine of all. Thomas likes to tease Gordon with his whistle. "Wake up, lazybones! why don't you work hard like me?"
 * (Gordon is then seen with the coaches)
 * George Carlin: One day after pulling the big express, Gordon had arrived back on the sidings very tired. He was just going to sleep when Thomas came up in his cheeky way. "Wake up, lazybones, do some hard work for a change. You can't catch me!" And off he ran laughing. Instead of going to sleep again, Gordon thought how he could get back at Thomas. One morning, Thomas wouldn't wake up. His driver and fireman couldn't make him start. His fire went out and there was not enough steam. It was nearly time for the express. People are waiting, but the coaches weren't ready. At last, Thomas started. "Oh dear, oh dear!" he yawned. He fussed into the station where Gordon was waiting. "Hurry up, you!" said Gordon. "Hurry up yourself," replied Thomas. Gordon the proud engine began making his plan to teach Thomas a lesson for teasing him. Almost before the coaches had stopped moving, Gordon reversed quickly and was coupled to the train. "Get in quickly, please!" he whistled. Thomas usually pushed behind the big trains to help them start, but he was always uncoupled first. This time, Gordon start so quickly they forgot to uncouple Thomas. Gordon's chance had come.
 * (Gordon carries Thomas across the Island of Sodor)
 * George Carlin: "Come on, come on!" puffed Gordon to the coaches. The train went faster and faster. Too fast for Thomas, he wanted to stop, but he couldn't. "Peep, peep! Stop, stop!" "Hurry, hurry, hurry!" laughed Gordon. "You can't get away, you can't get away!" laughed the coaches.
 * (Gordon carries Thomas on the viaduct)
 * George Carlin: Poor Thomas was going faster than he had ever gone before. He was out of breath and his wheels hurt him, but he had to go on. "I shall never be the same again," he thought sadly. "My wheels will be quite worn out."
 * (Gordon continues to speed ahead)
 * George Carlin: At last, they stopped at the station. Thomas was uncoupled and he felt very silly and exhausted. Next he went on to the turntable thinking of everyone laughing at him.
 * (Thomas is on the turntable as it turns around)
 * George Carlin: And then he ran on to a siding out of the way. "Well, little Thomas," chuckled Gordon, "now you know what hard work means, don't you?" Poor Thomas couldn't answer. He had no breath. He just puffed slowly away to rest and had a long, long drink. "Maybe I don't have to tease Gordon to feel important," Thomas thought to himself. And he puffed slowly home.
