The Irelanders' Adventures of Thomas and Friends: Tale of the Brave/Transcript

This is the transcript for The Irelanders' Adventures of Thomas and Friends: Tale of the Brave.

[The film begins with a frog at a pond then Duck puffing out of Tidmouth Tunnel on his branch line]

Narrator: It was a bright, sunny day, on the island of Sodor was bustling with activity. The engines were carrying passengers and goods up and down every line on The Fat Controller's railway, except Thomas' branch line, which was closed for repairs to a damaged bridge.

[The scene changes to Thomas and the Irelanders heading towards The China Clay Pits on Edward's Branch Line]

Thomas: (whistles)

Narrator: Instead of working on his branch line, Thomas, along with The Irelanders including their new members, Discord and The Lion Guard and their friends, Maisie Lockwood, Ash Ketchum, Pikachu, Misty, Brock, Serena, Ajabu, Scooby-Doo, Shaggy, Fred, Daphne and Velma, had been sent to the Sodor China Clay Pits to work with Bill and Ben.

[Thomas and the Irelanders puff into the clay pits and look around for the twins but they are nowhere to be seen]

Thomas: Hello! Is anybody here?

Connor Lacey: Where can those two cheeky tank engine twins be?

Twilight Sparkle: Knowing those two, it's probably another one of their pranks.

Mewtwo: We might as well look for them.

Aisling: Bill and Ben! Stop hiding! It's not funny!

Lightning McQueen: Bill?

Bill: (laughs)

Dusty Crophopper: Ben?

[Just then, Bill suddenly appears, biffing some trucks before puffing off]

The Mask: There's Bill!

Rainbow Dash: Quickly, Thomas! After him!

[Thomas puffs after Bill]

Thomas: Hey, wait for us!

[They followed Bill into a tunnel]

Thomas: Ben!

Bill: (giggles)

Thomas: Bill!

Dash Parr: Come on, big guy! Can't you go any faster?! We're losing him!

Thomas: I'm trying, Dash!

[They chased after Bill out of the tunnel. As they puff through a gorge, they hear another whistle and they look up to see Ben puffing past them up above on a bridge. As Ben crosses the bridge, he dislodges some dust which falls onto them, making them shut their eyes. Then as they open them again, they puff out onto a ledge and look at the view of the Clay Pits with awe and wonder]

Irelanders: Wow.

[They saw Bill and Ben down below and went down to greet them]

Thomas: Hello, Ben.

Ben: You all took your time, Thomas. Your trucks are over there.

[A line of trucks is standing nearby]

Bill: Don't be silly, Ben. Thomas isn't strong enough to pull those trucks.

Thomas: Of course, I am!

Violet Parr: Yeah. You'll see how strong he is. [to Thomas] Come on, big fella. Show them what you're made of.

[Thomas whistles and puffs off to the trucks]

Bill and Ben: (snickers)

[Thomas backs up to the trucks and gets coupled up. He puffs off, not realizing that the trucks are already coupled up to an oil-burning steam engine named Timothy. He was sizzling nicely when he felt being pulled back by Thomas and the trucks]

Timothy: Oh! Hey! Stop! (slamming on his brakes, making Thomas strain) What's got into you trucks?

Thomas: Oh.

Irelanders: Huh?

Bill and Ben: (laughing)

Bill: The trucks aren't pulling you, Timothy. It's Thomas that's pulling you!

Thomas and Irelanders: Timothy?

Timothy: Thomas? Guys?

Narrator: Timothy was the little oil-burning engine that worked at the Clay Pits too. Bill and Ben had played a trick on both him and Thomas.

Fuli: So those are Bill and Ben?

Kim Possible: Yep. Two of the most troublesome tank engines on Sodor. Just like my twin brothers, The Tweebs.

Koki: They've been known to play pranks from time to time.

Kion: Well, it wasn't nice of them to prank Timothy and Thomas just then.

Timothy: Oh, don't mind them, Kion. Bill and Ben are always playing tricks on other engines.

Bunga: Well, now you tell us.

Thomas: We know all about Bill and Ben and their tricks, Timothy.

Connor Lacey: Yeah. After we first met them during when Percy goes through with lucky charms, we've learned about them and their tricks like when they tricked my train counterpart with their identical appearances which is followed by Ben tricking Kevin into having him painted blue just like Bill when The Fat Controller tries to put a stop to their tricks.

Jiminy Cricket: Yep. Last time we saw them is when they're shunting trucks at Brendam Docks during our first meeting with Harvey and they've been painted back to their yellow liveries.

Chris Kratt: Yeah. When Bill and Ben mentions the clay pits, we've ask them if we can visit it sometime and they agreed.

Martin Kratt: And look where we are now.

Maisie Lockwood: Yeah. This place is amazing.

Discord: It sure is. Who keeps Bill and Ben in order besides The Fat Controller anyway?

Thomas: Well, Edward is the only engine on the island who can keep those two in order and he does it for many years.

Discord: I see. For an old engine, he sure is capable of things, I'II give him that.

Iago: Yep. We'd better keep an eye on those two while we're here.

Timothy: You have to admit, though, that was a funny one. Trucks can be troublesome, but they don't usually have that much pull! (laughs with Thomas and the Irelanders)

[Then they hear thunders as they look up to see storm clouds appearing in the sky]

Captain Jake: Wow. Looks like a storm is coming.

Melody: You could be right, Jake and it could be a problem.

Timothy: You'd best be careful, fellas. Melody's right. If a storm comes, the heavy rains can make the clay walls unstable.

Jack Skellington: This sounds serious.

Zero: (barks)

Thomas: Thanks, Timothy. (whistles) We'II be careful.

[They head off. As the rain poured down, Thomas and the Irelanders puff along the clay walls. Lightning strikes, making the walls crack and crumble]

Thomas: Timothy was right! I do need to be careful. Whoa!

[Some rocks fall down to the ground in front of Thomas, making him stop just in time]

Thomas: Huh?

[Thomas and the Irelanders look down to see a giant footprint in one of the rocks]

Thomas: Footprints?

Lightning McQueen: What're footprints doing embedded in rocks?

Dusty Crophopper: Beats me. There's more up there!

[They look up as lightning flashes, revealing more footprints alongside the cliff wall]

Thomas: What could have made footprints as big as.....

[Then more rocks starts to fall down towards Thomas and the Irelanders]

Thomas and Irelanders: (gasp)

Bill and Ben: Look out!

[They push Thomas and the Irelanders to safety]

Thomas and Irelanders: Whoa!

Bill and Ben: Whoa!

[The landslide falls down behind them. The intro starts and ends with the title "The Irelanders' Adventures of Thomas and Friends: Tale of the Brave". The scene changes to the shunting yard where all the engines and Irelanders are gathered around The Fat Controller]

Narrator: Tale of the Brave. The morning after the big storm on the Island of Sodor, The Fat Controller gathered some of his engines together to make an announcement.

The Fat Controller: Ahem. We are here to pay tribute to the bravery of Bill and Ben!

Bill: Hello, everyone.

Ben: Glad you could make it.

[The engines blew their whistles]

The Fat Controller: While they may be better known for playing tricks on their fellow engines....

Gordon: You can say that again.

The Fat Controller: ...that by rescuing Thomas, Connor Lacey and the Irelanders from the landslide at the China Clay Pits, they have proved once again that they are Really Useful and brave engines!

[All the engines whistled, except for Gordon and James who frowns at them with disapproval]

Gordon: Really silly engines, more like!

James: Brave? Huh! I'm braver than they'II ever be!

Aviva Corcovado: That's what you think, James.

Brock: What are you two grumbling about?

Gordon: We were talking about Bill and Ben being silly engines rather than be brave since they play tricks on us a lot.

Ono: They may be annoying from time to time, Gordon, but they did save our lives during that storm.

Raven Queen: Yeah so you two better show some respect.

James: Respect? Huh! If they ever respect us in return. (whistles and puffs off)

Fred Jones: What's gotten into him?

Daphne Blake: Beats me, Freddie.

Beshte: Aviva, what do you mean by that's what you think?

Aviva Corcovado: I mean that James thinks he can be brave but I think that he's being very vain and silly.

Connor Lacey: Yeah. He can be skeptical at times.

Bob Parr/Mr Incredible: He's gonna have to learn a lesson one of these days.

Velma Dinkley: I see. Sure hope we get to solve another mystery while we're here.

Fred Jones: I had a feeling that we may came across one already.

[He gestures to Thomas who is deep in thought as The Fat Controller walk over to him]

The Fat Controller: Ah, Thomas. I'd like you to work at the docks this morning... (notices Thomas deep in thought) Thomas?

Thomas: (snapping out of his thoughts) Oh. Yes, sir. Work at the docks.

The Fat Controller: Mmm-hmm.

[He walks off, leaving Thomas alone with Percy and the Irelanders]

Percy: What's wrong, Thomas? You seem a bit quiet.

Thomas: Sorry, Percy. I, well, we saw something strange up at the Clay Pits yesterday.

Percy: Really? What did you all see?

Connor Lacey: We're not sure, Percy. We think that we saw footprints but we may need to go back and find out if there were really footprints or not.

Thomas: So, until we know for certain, we need to take another look.

[He whistles and puffs off with the Irelanders, leaving Percy puzzled]

Percy: Footprints?

[The scene changes to a frog on a lily pad in a pond. As it jumps into the pond, a strange alligator like shape moves past it. Thomas and the Irelanders arrived back at the clay pits to look for the footprints]

Narrator: Before starting work at the docks, Thomas and the Irelanders went back to the Clay Pits again. They wanted to go back to where they had seen what they thought were big footprints.

[They came to the area which is closed off by danger signs]

Narrator: But the area was closed off and there were danger signs.

Ash Ketchum: Aw man. The area's closed off.

Pikachu: Pika, pi.

Chris Kratt: Well, they're here for safety reasons, Ash. We can't go past them.

Martin Kratt: But how will we find out if what we saw were really footprints?

Zazu: Perhaps if me and our flying members goes over the area, we can spot the footprints from above.

Connor Lacey: Well, that could work but you can see what the sign says. We can't go past it.

Ono: That doesn't apply to us birds who can fly.

Twilight Sparkle: It's worth a shot then. You might as well try it.

[Then a shovel appears in front of them, surprising them and making Thomas stop]

Irelanders: Aaah!

Thomas: Argh! What's that?

Marion: Only me! (laughs) Sorry. Oh, dear. This is embarrassing. Haven't you ever seen a steam shovel before?

Thomas: Yes, I...We just didn't hear you coming, and, well...we were thinking about something else.

Marion: Me too. I was thinking about digging. I love digging. I love thinking about digging. Not as much as I love digging, f course. Digging is what I'm all about really, but... oh. Oh, dear. This is embarrassing. I forgot to ask you your name.

Thomas: Uh...

Marion: You should always introduce yourself. It's only polite. That's what I've always been told anyway.

Thomas: Uh..

Marion: Shall I go first? Let me introduce myself. I'm Marion. And you are...

Thomas: Thomas.

Connor Lacey: Connor Lacey.

Twilight Sparkle: Twilight Sparkle.

Kion: Kion.

Captain Jake: Captain Jake.

Brock: My name's Brock and I'm a Pokemon breeder.

Misty: And I'm Misty. My specialty is water Pokemon.

Ash Ketchum: My name's Ash Ketchum and I'm trying to be a Pokemon master.

Pikachu: Pika!

Ash Ketchum: Oh, yeah, and this is Pikachu.

Pikachu: Pikachu!

Martin Kratt: I'm Martin Kratt.

Chris Kratt: I'm his brother, Chris Kratt.

Kim Possible: I'm Kim Possible.

Jack Skellington: I'm Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King. [pulls his scary face]

Marion: Whoa.

Jack Skellington: Sorry, couldn't help it. [gesturing to Zero] And this is Zero, my ghost dog.

Zero: (barks and licks Marion)

Marion: (giggles)

Maisie Lockwood: I'm Maisie Lockwood.

Aisling: I'm Aisling.

Bob Parr/Mr Incredible: I'm Bob Parr. Otherwise known as Mr Incredible!

Lightning McQueen: I'm Lightning McQueen! Ka-Chow!

Dusty Crophopper: Dusty. Dusty Crophopper.

Jiminy Cricket: Cricket's the name. Jiminy Cricket.

Melody: I'm Melody.

Mewtwo: I am Mewtwo.

Shaggy: Like, everybody calls me Shaggy. And that's Scooby-Doo.

Fred Jones: Fred Jones. This is Velma Dinkley and Daphne Blake.

Iago: I'm Iago.

Discord: You can call me Discord. The Lord of Chaos.

Everyone: We're the Irelanders.

Marion: Nice to meet you.

Thomas: Do you always talk this much?

Marion: Not particularly. No, I wouldn't say that. I'm more of a digger, to be honest. Or should I say steam shovel? That is my proper title, you know, seeing as I have a shovel, and I'm powered by steam. I'm here to clear the tracks, actually. (whistles and puffs off to the clay walls) Always a lot of digging to do after a landslide! That's right. Oh, a lot of digging.

[Thomas and the Irelanders attempts to sneak past the danger sign]

Marion: Ah-ah-ah. Don't you all go past the danger sign, fellas. That would be dangerous. Unless, of course, you want me to dig you out. (laughs then saw something) Oooh! What's that rocky bit? The rocky bits are always the hardest to dig.

[Thomas and the Irelanders watch Marion with amusement just as Timothy puff past, pushing some trucks towards the clay walls and Marion]

Timothy: I see you've met Marion, then.

Thomas: We certainly have.

Marion: Steam shovels are made for digging, and I am particularly good at it. Either way, ooh, good, Marion. Well done.

[Timothy reverses back to Thomas and the Irelanders]

Thomas: Timothy, have you seen any big animals in the clay pits?

Timothy: Big animals? Like what? A cow or a deer?

Chris Kratt: No, he meant bigger than that. Huge. Gigantic even.

Timothy: There aren't animals bigger than that on Sodor, Chris. Oh, except giraffes and elephants in the animal park. (laughs)

Marion: And chickens.

Thomas, Timothy and the Irelanders: Chickens?

Marion: Oh, sorry. Did I say "chickens"? I meant dinosaurs. Oh, dinosaurs were very big animals. But dinosaurs aren't around anymore. No, they lived a very long time ago, A very, very, very long time ago. Oh, dear. There I go talking out of my shovel.

Timothy: Why are you asking about big animals, Thomas?

Thomas: Oh, I was just wondering. That's all.

Maisie Lockwood: (to everyone) I think for now, we'd better not tell Timothy and Marion about the genetic dinosaurs that are around here now.

Connor Lacey: You got it, Maisie. We don't want to scare them by telling them that dinosaurs are still around despite the original ones being extinct.

Shaggy Rogers: I'II say. Like, the fact that they're real instead of fake is frighting enough.

Scooby-Doo: Reah.

Velma Dinkley: I'm still can't believe that they used genetic technology to bring dinosaurs back to life.

Serena: Me neither. We have to coexist withe them as much as we can. We know you did the right thing to save them from death, Maisie.

Maisie Lockwood: Thanks, Serena. Besides, I couldn't just stand by and let them die by the toxic gas. As clones, they're alive like me and Mewtwo.

Mewtwo: Very true, Maisie.

Twilight Sparkle: We might as well get going to Brendam Docks. We don't want to be late to disappoint The Fat Controller.

Connor Lacey: Twilight's right, guys. Let's go.

Marion: (singing) Do you dig digging like I dig digging?~ I do, I do, I do~ Do you dig digging like I dig digging?~ I diggy, diggy, diggy, diggy, diggy do!~

[As Marion loaded the trucks with rocks, she's unaware that alongside them is the rock with the footprint in it that Thomas and The Irelanders has found the other day. It got buried as Marion drop some more rocks on it. The scene changes to Thomas and the Irelanders arriving at Brendam Docks]

Narrator: It was a busy morning at Brendam Docks. Ships were being loaded and unloaded and cargo was waiting to be taken away.

[Thomas back down to a train of conflats and bump them by accident]

Cranky: And where have you all been all morning? I thought you were meant to be pulling goods trains today!

Thomas: I am. We just had another job to do first, that's all.

Cranky: Hmm. (to The Lion Guard) And I don't think I've seen you bunch of animals before.

Kion: We're the Lion Guard. Protectors of the Pride Lands. I'm Kion. The leader.

Bunga: The name's Bunga.

Fuli: I'm Fuli.

Beshte: I'm Beshte.

Ono: And I'm Ono.

Zazu: I'm Zazu, royal majordomo for Simba, king of the Pride Lands.

Discord: And I'm Discord. The lord of Chaos.

Cranky: Well, it's good to meet you all. My name is, uh... [a slight pause] Cranky.

Bunga: Cranky? (laughs) That's funny, Cranky.

Cranky: (sighs)

Koki: We think it's funny when we first met him too.

Ono: Yes, but why's he called Cranky?

Thomas: Well, he can be a bit cranky sometimes, hence the name, along with the other reason that sometimes he works all night and few sleeps.

Zazu: Whoa. You mean, he works all night and never sleeps early?

Thomas: Sometimes, Zazu, yes.

Discord: That would explains a lot.

Fuli: You can also tell by his personality.

Thomas: He's not so bad once you get to know him.

Connor Lacey: Yeah. Like Salty said before, under all that gruff, beats a heart of gold.

Kion: A heart of gold? What do you mean?

Spike: He means that Cranky can be kind and friendly as well.

Kion: Oh, I see.

Fuli: (doubtfully) Well, let's hope that he will show it.

Russell Ferguson: Oh, he will. You'II see.

[Percy arrives whistling]

Percy: Thomas! Did you and the Irelanders go back to the Clay Pits? Did you find out what made those footprints?

Thomas: We've tried, Percy, but the area was closed off after the landslide.

Cranky: (putting a crate down hard on one of the conflats) Maybe you should stick to your railway jobs, Thomas, instead of going around chasing footprints and causing landslides.

Penny Ling: No need to be rude, Cranky.

Discord: Yeah. You don't have to butt in into our private conversation.

Cranky: Well, it's true. I can hear you all, you know.

Percy: Why are you so worried about some footprints, anyway?

Thomas: Because we don't know what could have made them, Percy.

Kim Possible: But they were real. They were very big and real. Bigger than any animal on Sodor.

Percy: (gasps) You mean they were footprints from... (starting to feel scared) a monster?!

Shaggy and Scooby: Huh? (shudders as they huddle)

Cranky: A monster? Honestly! The things you engines come up with.

Violet Parr: Cranky! Stop butting in will you!

Thomas: Don't be silly, Percy. There's no such thing as monsters.

Velma Dinkley: Yeah. Like we've proven many times when we faced our enemies who pretended to be monsters.

Connor Lacey: Velma's right. They're probably been made by something else.

Shaggy Rogers: Hey, I got an idea. How about if Scoob, Jimmy, Sunil Nevla, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and I go with Percy?

Scooby Doo: Reah.

Lightning McQueen: Sure. But why?

Ajabu: Just to keep him company during his jobs and to keep assuring him that monsters aren't real.

Dusty Crophopper: Okay. If you say so.

Thomas: That's a good idea. (to Percy) You see, Percy? We're sure there's no monsters around here.

Percy: OK, Thomas. I hope you're right.

[He whistles and puffs off with Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Sunil, Maisie, Rusty and Ajabu, leaving Thomas and the Irelanders worried]

Thomas: So do I.

[Later, Percy, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Ajabu, Rusty and Sunil Nevla are puffing through the countryside as a fog starts to roll in]

Narrator: As an eerie fog rolled across Sodor, Percy couldn't stop thinking about what Thomas had said.

Percy: There's no such thing as monsters. (chuckles nervously) There's no such thing as monsters. There's no such thing as monsters. There's no such thing as monsters. Oh.....

[Shaggy and Scooby whistles nervously]

Shaggy Rogers: Stop that whistling. You make me nervous.

[Scooby stops]

Maisie Lockwood: This fog is really thick and very spooky. (whimpers)

Rusty: I know what you mean, Maisie. It's already starting to make my parts clank with fear. (whimpers as she lets off steam)

Ajabu: Aaah!

[He hides]

Rusty: Sorry, Ajabu. I tend to do that sometimes when I overheat.

Ajabu: That's OK, Rusty. I still get scared easily.

Sunil Nevla: I'm already starting to feel nervous.

Jimmy Z: Me too, Sunil. (shudders) This fog is starting to give me the chills.

Percy: Oh.... Oh! Whoa! (slams on his brakes) What's that?

Rusty: What's wrong, Percy?

Sunil Nevla: Guys, look!

[They saw the same alligator-like shape coming towards them]

Everyone: (gasps)

Percy: I...hope...it's....not...a....monster!

Shaggy Rogers: Zoinks!

Jimmy Z: Let's get outta here!

Maisie Lockwood: Right you are, Jimmy! Full throttle, Percy!

Percy: Ohh! Run away! Run away! (puffs off backwards) Oh, run away, run away!

[The scene changes to back at Brendam Docks where Cranky loaded the last crate onto Thomas' conflat]

Fred Jones: OK, gang, that's the last crate loaded. Now we can go.

Cubby: Okay, guys. We better be careful in this fog.

Raven Queen: Cubby's right. Wouldn't want to run into anything, would we?

Connor Lacey: She's right. Full steam ahead, Thomas but be careful.

[Thomas whistles and was just about puff off when he heard Porter's whistle in the distance]

Porter: Look out! Look out! Runaway trucks!

[He sped past Thomas and the Irelanders just as Percy, Shaggy, Scooby, Ajabu, Maisie, Rusty, Jimmy and Sunil puff backwards into view]

Percy: A monster! A monster! It's coming this way!

[He bumped into a brakevan as he backed into the green warehouse]

Sunil Nevla: [high-pitched scream]

Scooby Doo: [screams]

Percy: It's the monster from the Clay Pits!

Thomas: Huh?

Irelanders: (gasps)

Cranky: The monster? Aaah!

[He turn around, dropping sandbags to the ground as Salty arrives, looking concerned. The shape puffs closer to the engines. Percy, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil shut their eyes in horror and wait for the worst. Then as the shape stop and the dust cleared away, it reveals to be an engine with an unusual shaped tank]

Gator: Oh, hello.

Salty: Ha-har! That be no monster, Percy! That be an engine!

Maisie Lockwood: Huh? Oh.

Sunil Nevla: Now I get it.

Jimmy Z: Ajabu, you can come out now.

[Ajabu is nowhere to be seen]

Jimmy Z: Where's he got to?

Connor Lacey: He really is very good at hiding.

[Ajabu stick his head out]

Beshte: There you are, Ajabu.

Ajabu: Sorry. I still hid when I get scared.

Shaggy: Like, that's OK, man. We understand.

Scooby-Doo: Reah. We hide when we get scared all the time.

Salty: Ahoy there, matey! (chuckles) I think they all thought you were a sea monster.

Cranky: I didn't think you were a monster.

Twilight Sparkle: Uh, yes, you did actually.

Thomas: Ahem.

[Cranky look down at Thomas who got sand all over him and glares at him]

Cranky: (blushes in embarrassment) Oops.

Gator: (laughs) A monster? Oh, I don't usually get mistaken for a monster.

Bob Parr/Mr Incredible: Well if you're not a monster then who are you?

Gator: Mind you, they do call me Gator. It seems they think my long sloping water tank makes me look like an alligator!

Salty: Gator? Huh? That's a great name!

Gator: (chuckles) Well, my real name is Gerald, but I quite like being called Gator.

Thomas: And I like being called Thomas.

Salty: Or should we call you "Sandy" now? (laughs)

Connor Lacey: (laughs) Good one, Salty. (to Gator) Anyway, I'm Connor Lacey.

Twilight Sparkle: My name is Twilight Sparkle.

Lightning McQueen: I'm Lightning McQueen! Ka-chow!

Dusty Crophopper: Dusty. Dusty Crophopper.

Kim Possible: I'm Kim Possible.

Bob Parr/Mr Incredible: I'm Bob Parr. Otherwise known as Mr. Incredible!

Mewtwo: I am Mewtwo.

Jack Skellington: I'm Jack Skellington. The Pumpkin King. (pulls his scary face)

Gator: Whoa!

Jack Skellington: Sorry. Couldn't help it. (gestures to Zero) This is Zero. My pet ghost dog.

Zero: (barks)

Jiminy Cricket: Cricket's the name. Jiminy Cricket.

Aisling: I'm Aisling.

Captain Jake: Captain Jack of the Neverland Pirates.

Kion: I'm Kion. Leader of the Lion Guard.

Melody: I'm Melody.

Iago: I'm Iago.

Raven Queen: I'm Raven Queen.

Zazu: I'm Zazu. Royal majordomo for Simba, king of the Pride Lands.

Shaggy: Like, everybody calls me Shaggy. And that's Scooby-Doo.

Fred Jones: Fred Jones. This is Velma Dinkley and Daphne Blake.

Discord: And I'm Discord. The Lord of Chaos.

Thomas: And the little green tank engine in my friend, Percy.

Percy: Hello.

Gator: Hello, Percy. I'm sorry if I gave you and the others a fright. I was in a hurry to catch a ship....

[A whistle blew and everyone look to see the Dock Manager walking towards them]

Narrator: Then, the Dock Manger arrived. He was not very happy to see his docks in such a mess.

The Dock Manager: What is going on here? Those trucks should be in Vicarstown by now, Percy.

Percy: Sorry, sir. I was just leaving. (whistles and puffs off with Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil) Goodbye, Gator.

Gator: Goodbye, Percy.

[Percy, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil went through the countryside towards Vicarstown]

Narrator: Percy, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil felt very silly for thinking the new engine was a monster, but they were still a little worried.

[The scene changes to nighttime as Percy, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil puff along the line with the mail train]

Narrator: And that night, as they set out to take the mail train, they seemed to see monsters everywhere.

[The song Monsters Everywhere starts playing as Percy and the others saw various things that look like monsters like rabbits for monster eyes, a haystack for a spooky face, a washing line, a water tower leaning over, leaves on his lamp making a scary face, a old barn's cracks and window making that face and the signalbox for a monster with a open mouth]

What's that just around the corner?~

Something in the rocks and trees~

Slowly, slowly getting closer~

Makes you want to puff and wheeze~

Monsters everywhere, hiding in the trees~

Monsters everywhere, blowing in the breeze~

Monsters everywhere, doing as they please~

They try to scare you!~

Is your boiler getting colder~

As you slowly puff around?~

Must be brave, you must be bolder~

It's no more than silly sounds~

Monsters everywhere, hiding in the trees~

Just behind the rocks, blowing in the breeze~

Monsters everywhere, doing as they please~

They try to scare you!~

[Percy and the others saw eyes peeking out every tree and as they puff into a tunnel, footprints and spooky eyes appear all around them, scaring them even more]

Look out! Look out!~

They're all about!~

Where?~

Look out! Look out!~

They're all about!~

Where?~

Look out! Look out!~

They're all about!~

Where?~

[Percy whooshed out of the tunnel. A frog hops out of the tunnel and onto the track]

Oh, that's not so scary.~

Frog: (croaks)

[The scene changes to early the next morning when Thomas and the Irelanders puff back to the Clay Pits]

Narrator: The next morning, Thomas and the Irelanders woke up early and headed straight to the Clay Pits. His branch lines were still under construction.

[As Thomas and the Irelanders puff down to the lower level, Ben puff under a track where two men are pushing a mine cart above him]

Two men: Got it. Yep. One, two, three... (they tip the mine cart, pouring clay to Ben's trucks)

Marion: (singing) I like to dig up, I like to dig down~

I like to dig up treasure that's never been found~

Do you dig digging like I dig digging?~

I do!~ I do!~ I diggy, diggy do!~

[Timothy puff past Thomas and the Irelanders with trucks filled up with rocks]

Thomas and Irelanders: Hello, Timothy.

Timothy: Hello, Thomas, Irelanders.

Leo: Have you find anything unusual in there?

Timothy: Like what?

Thomas: We don't know. Footprints from a monster or something?

Fred Jones: OK, gang, let's search for those footprints we found.

Daphne Blake: That way, we'II see if we really saw those footprints or not and find out what made them.

Connor Lacey: Good thinking, Daphne. Let's move in.

[Thomas and the Irelanders puff towards the danger zone and look around for the footprints they saw two nights ago, unaware that they've been followed by Bill and Ben unnoticed]

Bill and Ben: Boo!

Thomas and Irelanders: (gasp)

Bill and Ben: (laughs)

Thomas: You and your tricks!

Iago: Whoo. What are you trying to do? Give us a heart attack?

Aviva Corcovado: Yeah. You nearly made Thomas burst a safety valve!

Ben: We were only saying hello.

Bill: Poor things. You'd think they'd seen a steam shovel!

[The twins puff off laughing]

Ono: Boy, when you said that those guys are pro pranksters, Connor, you weren't kidding.

Connor Lacey: I know, Ono. I guess it's just what they're good at really. Larking about.

Velma Dinkley: I don't know how much longer are we gonna put up with those two until Thomas' branch line is mended.

Ash Ketchum: We'll just have to make the best of it, Velma. Besides, we need to get to know Marion more while we're here.

Pikachu: Pika.

[The scene changes to Brendam Docks where Percy is reversing to a train of Troublesome Trucks sleepily]

Narrator: Meanwhile, poor nervous Percy, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil had gone to Brendam Docks to collect some trucks. Percy and the others were very sleepy after staying awake all night keeping a lookout for monsters.

Truck: (giggling)

[Percy puffs back slowly to the trucks as he, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil struggle to stay awake]

Dock Worker: Percy....

Truck: (laughing)

[Percy and the others shut their eyes and accidentally back into the trucks bumping them which also causes them to wake up, startled]

Percy: (screaming) Oh, no! Help! What's that? (he drags a shunter's pole along behind him, out of the worker's hands)

Worker: Oh! Percy!

Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil: The monster from the Clay Pits has got us! (screaming)

[The shunter's pole falls off Percy's back coupling as he and the others puff past Gator]

Gator: Percy! Guys! Stop!

[Percy and the others screech to a halt]

Gator: You've left your trucks behind!

[The trucks laughed while the worker look at Percy and the others with an unamused look on his face]

Percy: (stammers) What?

Truck: (laughing) Silly Percy, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil! Only us! (laughing)

Sunil: Ugh, how could we not have realized? Us! Frightened of a silly shunter's pole dragging along behind us.

Ajabu: At least monsters don't come out during day time. Hopefully Makucha doesn't come here to try and eat me again.

Rusty: Don't worry, Ajabu. He's back in Africa and his home which is a long way from here.

Ajabu: If you sure, Rusty.

Maisie Lockwood: Guess we've been staying up all night for monsters.

Jimmy Z: Yeah. Man, those trucks sure woke us up.

Shaggy Rogers: Like, you can say that again.

Scooby-Doo: Reah.

Gator: Are you always such a nervous bunch? You're all acting like there's something chasing you down the tracks!

Percy: Sorry. It's just Thomas and Connor said....

Narrator: Percy did feel a little silly.

Percy: (sighs) Never mind.

[The scene changes back to the Clay Pits where Marion is loading Thomas' trucks with rocks]

Narrator: Back at the Clay Pits, Thomas was shunting trucks for Marion. And trying to see if he and the Irelanders could spot any footprints.

Marion: OK, Thomas. That's your lot. But hurry back, OK?

[Thomas whistles and puffs off]

Marion: I'II stay here and dig until I fill up some more trucks. There's plenty of digging still to do. Plenty of digging. I dig all day.....

Melody: That is one overtalkitive steam shovel, I'll give her that.

Tip: Yeah. All she ever talks about is digging.

Dash: Yeah and other things that include digging.

Connor Lacey: Yeah. Dig, dig, dig. That's all she ever talks about. I guess that's just the way she is.

Discord: And while she's been doing that, we've seen no footprints around here. (holding a binocular which went very long)

Daphne Blake: Yeah. That's so weird. One minute they're here, the next minute they're gone.

Thomas: Maybe I didn't see anything that night. Heh. Maybe the lightning is playing tricks on us.

Misty: Yeah. You're probably right, Thomas.

Chris Kratt: That's a shame. We could have find them to see if they belong to a new species.

Martin Kratt: Yeah. And not a monster.

Bill: Hurry up, Ben! I need to fill my water tank too!

Thomas: Hmm, playing tricks on us.....

Penny Ling: Maybe Bill and Ben had something to do with it.

Narrator: And then an idea flew into Thomas' funnel.

Ben: Be patient, Bill. You'II get your turn.

Bill: I've been patient for ages!

Thomas: Hey, Bill. Hey, Ben.

Connor Lacey: Mind if we ask you something?

Ben: You just did, Connor. (laughs with Bill)

Connor Lacey: Oh, ha-ha, very funny, you two.

Thomas: We were just wondering, the other day before you rescued us from the landslide, were you playing a trick on us?

Bill: A trick?

Ben: That landslide was not a trick!

Twilight Sparkle: Oh, we didn't mean the landslide, you two. We saw something else at the clay walls and....

Bill: We risked our boilers for you all, Twilight!

Ben: That's right! We could have been caught in that landslide too! (whistles and puffs off)

Bill: Yeah. (whistles) What he said. (he puffs off)

Narrator: Thomas and the Irelanders hadn't meant to upset Bill and Ben. They just wanted to find out where the big footprints had come from and whether they were footprints at all.

Brock: Then if Bill and Ben didn't move the footprints then who did?

Beshte: I don't know, but it looks like we've jumped to conclusions like Rafiki said.

Izzy: Yeah. And we've offended them.

Connor Lacey: We'd better apologize to them later. Right now, we better get back to work.

Irelanders: Okay, Connor.

[The scene changes to night as Thomas and the Irelanders arrived back at Tidmouth Sheds]

Narrator: It was already dark when Thomas and the Irelanders finally returned to Tidmouth Sheds. They were very surprised to find Percy still in his berth.

Thomas: Percy? Aren't you supposed to be taking the mail train? You should have left by now.

Percy: I know, Thomas, but last night we kept seeing things that looked like monsters!

Thomas: Monsters?

James: (chuckles) A monster?

Percy: They weren't really monsters.

Maisie Lockwood: Yeah. They were only silly things like a haystack or a shirt on the line.

Shaggy Rogers: Like, it really was spooky.

Scooby-Doo: Reah. Rpooky.

Jimmy Z: It was almost enough to make me scared out of my skin.

Percy: But there could be still a monster out there! Please, Thomas, would you take the mail train for me? Just tonight.

Thomas: Um, all right, Percy, I suppose I could. (puffs out of his berth)

Percy: Thank you, Thomas! Thank you! You're a good friend!

James: (laughs) Oh, Percy, you're such a scaredy engine!

Rarity: (gasps) James! You shouldn't say things like that to Percy!

Maisie Lockwood: Yeah! Everyone gets scared of something sometimes!

James: Yeah. Now, I get it why Shaggy and Scooby are often called chickens. Because they are too scared to help out! (chuckles)

Fuli: Hey! Leave Scooby and Shaggy out of this!

Shaggy Rogers: It's OK, Fuli. We're proud of being chickens anyway.

Scooby-Doo: Reah.

Fred Jones: We may know that they're chickens but they still help us get the job done.

Daphne Blake: And we always understand that by not being mean to them about it.

Velma Dinkley: Yeah. So you'd better not tease them or Percy and the others and apologize.

[James just went back to sleep]

Aviva Corcovado: Ugh.

Serena: (to Percy) Don't let what James says get to you, Percy. It's OK to be afraid every now and again.

Connor Lacey: Yeah. Tell you what, why don't we stay up with you to wait until Thomas comes back from pulling the mail train? Then, you'II see that there are no such things as monsters.

Percy: I hope you're right, Connor.

[The scene changes to later as Percy and the Irelanders waited for Thomas to return]

Narrator: Percy couldn't sleep. He kept thinking about Thomas and wondering if he was OK.

[He heard Thomas' whistle and look as he puff back into his berth next to him]

Narrator: But Thomas finally finished the mail train and came back safe and sound.

Percy: No monsters?

Thomas: No monsters.

Sunil Nevla: Are you sure, Thomas?

Thomas: I'm certain, Sunil.

Violet Parr: See, Percy? What did we tell you? There's no such thing as monsters.

Percy: But what about the footprints?

Thomas: It was dark and stormy that night at the clay pits. I don't even know for sure that we saw any footprints.

Lightning McQueen: Yep. It's all a mystery.

Dusty Crophopper: We must be seeing things by the lightning.

Kion: (uncertain) Yeah. Maybe.

Ajabu: Well, that's a relief.

Rusty: Yeah. I quite agree. (lets off steam)

[Percy smiles]

Thomas: You should try to get some sleep, Percy. There's nothing to worry about.

Connor Lacey: He's right. Let's go to bed.

Raven Queen: Good night.

Shaggy: Night, Scoob.

Scooby-Doo: Right, Rhaggy.

Twilight Sparkle: Good night, Spike. (giggles) Sweet dreams, number one assistant.

[Everyone went to sleep except for Kion who ponders about really seeing footprints or not]

Kion: Those were footprints we saw. I just know it. But how can we find them again?

[The song What More Is Out There starts playing as Kion walks around the area of Tidmouth]

Kion: I've walked through The Pride Lands before~

I've been in and out of every path, oh-whoa-oh~

There's nothing about the Circle of Life that I don't know~

In every place, my roar's the best~

The highest score on every quest~

I think that means it's time for me to go~

I know there's more that's out there~

And I just haven't found it yet~

I know there's more that's out there~

Another me I haven't met~

This island is full of people~

But still I don't belong~

They only dream of usefulness~

Look at me like something's wrong~

Maybe I'm better off alone~

Will I find what I'm lookin' for~

If I just do it on my own?~

I know there's more that's out there~

Something to fill this hole inside~

I know there's more that's out there~

And I'm not afraid to try~

There's only so much this island can offer~

And I'm not saying that it's wrong~

But I know there's more that's out there~

Cause I've been searching all along~

Beyond these buildings, beyond these rails~

Some much to learn, I can't see it all~

There's somethin' out there callin' me~

And it's a mystery that I can't wait to see~

'Cause I know there's more that's out there~

Another place, another way~

And I know there's more that's out there~

And I'II find out some day~

I'll find out some day~

I'll find out someday...

[The song ends as Kion look up to the sky again]

Kion: Grandfather Mufasa?

[Mufasa's spirit appears in the night sky]

Mufasa: Kion, something's troubling you.

Kion: I am, Grandfather. We've tried to find the strange footprints at the Clay Pits but they've been moved somehow.

Mufasa: And whose footprints do they belong to?

Kion: That's just it. We don't know.

Mufasa: Well, this is a mystery.

Kion: And Thomas starts to think that he didn't really see any footprints and thinks that the lightning must be playing tricks on him, along with Connor and the others, but I know they were really footprints.

Mufasa: Don't let anyone tell you different, Kion. You know what you saw and that's all that matters. All part of staying true to yourself. You, Connor and Thomas will find a way to show everyone what you really see that night.

Kion: Thank you, Grandfather.

[Mufasa's spirit vanishes]

Kion: Sooner or later, we will find those footprints again and prove that we really did see them. Then we'II find out what made them and not a monster.

[He walks back to Tidmouth Sheds, unaware that Princess Luna observed everything from the sky and smiled. The scene changes to the railway works the next morning where Annie and Clarabel are sleeping]

Narrator: At last, Thomas' branch line was opened again.

[Annie hears Thomas' whistle and look up to see him reversing down towards her and Clarabel with the Irelanders, much to her delight]

Annie: Wake up, Clarabel! We're back in business.

[Thomas couples up to Annie]

Clarabel: Oh, is that Thomas? How delightful.

Kion: So you two must be Annie and Clarabel. Thomas has told us all about you. I'm Kion.

Bunga: I'm Bunga.

Fuli: Fuli's the name.

Ono: I'm Ono.

Beshte: And I'm Beshte.

Zazu: I'm Zazu. Royal majordomo for Simba, king of the Pride Lands.

Blythe Baxter: I'm Blythe Baxter.

Discord: And I'm Discord. The Lord of Chaos.

Annie: It's very nice to meet you.

Clarabel: What kind of animal are you anyway?

Discord: I am a draconequss, a creature with a pony's head and a bunch of other animal parts. A lion paw, a eagle claw, a snake tail, you know.

Annie: Wow. That is weird. Even your appearance.

Discord: I know. It is very chaotic.

Helen Parr/Elastigirl: Now that we've got the introductions outta the way, we can get going to Thomas' branch line now.

Pepper Clark: You heard her, guys. Pump those pistons, Thomas!

Thomas: (whistles and starts to puff off) Here we go!

Annie and Clarabel: (laughs)

[James puffs up to them with an angry expression on his face]

James: It's not fair! You get to pull coaches and I get send for scrap!

Thomas: (stop suddenly in shock) Sent for scrap?!

Irelanders: What?!

[Rarity faints]

Clarabel: Oh, James! That's terrible!

Annie: You still look Really Useful to me!

James: No. I mean sent to the scrap yard to collect trucks filled with scrap.

Annie: (chuckling) Oh, I see. Silly us.

Clarabel: Yes. Silly us.

Irelanders: (laughs)

Connor Lacey: We never would have guessed. (laughs)

Thomas: Cheer up, James. Pulling trucks isn't so bad.

Clarabel: You can't always do the jobs you like best.

[The scene changes to James puffing along Edward's branch line with a cross look on his face]

Narrator: James was not a happy engine as he puffed to the scrapyard.

[James saw Percy, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Maisie, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil up ahead and puff over to them]

James: Hello, scaredy cats! Seen any monsters lately? (laughs)

Maisie Lockwood: Would you cut that out, James? It's not funny.

Rusty: Yeah, you're making me nervous just talking about monsters.

Percy: You can tease if you want to, James, but there really might be a monster on Sodor, you know.

James: Ha! Puff and nonsense! There's no such thing as monsters!

Shaggy Rogers: Uh, like, yes there is!

Scooby-Doo: Reah.

Jimmy Z: And we're not going to rest until we prove it!

James: Well, if that's so, do you have any proof?

Percy: Well, Thomas, Connor and the others saw giant footprints up at the Clay Pits and nobody knows what made them.

[He puffs on, leaving James rather puzzled]

James: Giant footprints? Huh.... I wonder what.... (got swerved onto another track) Whoa! (screaming)

[James swerved onto a track in the scrap yard, applied his brakes and bumped into a flatbed with a bunch of scrap on it]

James: Oh!

[A claw grab some scrap off a truck and piles it on top of the scrap on the flatbed which has a tractor, a harrow, rusty wheels, a steam shovel, a lorry, an old water wheel, an old lamp post, rusty pipes and siderods, and a conveyor belt which looks like a monster]

James: Oh!

Reg: Hello, mate!

[James look to see a face behind a truck full of scrap]

James: Ah!

Reg: You came in fast! (the face moves, revealing to be a yellow crane named Reg) Scrap give you a bit of a fright, did it?

James: Ah, no! (chuckles) I'm not scared of pieces of metal and rusty old machines!

Reg: Is that right? Well, aren't you the big engine? Reg is the name. I'm the scrapyard crane.

James: Well, I'm James. And I usually pull coaches.

[He couples up to the flatbed, whistles and puffs off, leaving Reg with an amused grin]

Reg: Well, there's a surprise.

[The scene changes to Brendam Docks where Percy and the others have arrived]

Narrator: Meanwhile, Percy and the others had arrived at the docks, but they didn't expect to find Gator still there.

[Gator puff around the bend towards Percy and the others]

Percy: Gator! Hello! Are you working on Sodor now?

Gator: No, Percy. I missed my ship. I'm just helping the dock manager while I wait for another one. He needs me to collect some cars from Duck's branch line tonight.

Ajabu: Tonight?

Sunil Nevla: But we won't be able to see you again after that.

Shaggy Rogers: Yeah. Like, there's monsters out there.

Scooby Doo: Reah. Ronsters.

Gator: Monsters? What monsters? (laughs) Monsters would probably be afraid of me!

Maisie Lockwood: Wow. You sure are a brave engine, Gator.

Percy: I wish we were as brave as you are.

Gator: You might be braver than you think, guys.

Rusty: How?

Gator: I wasn't always as brave as I am now.

[As Gator told his story, an illustration flashback starts playing, showing Gator on a mountain railway]

Gator: I'm designed to work in the high mountains, Percy. That's why my water tanks are this special shape. But just because you're designed for something, doesn't mean you can't be afraid of it. And it was a shock fro me to find out that I was afraid of heights! One day, I was faced with having to cross a high bridge, higher than any bridge I'd ever seen before. But I was pulling trucks loaded with important supplies. The villagers needed my help. I decided I must be brave! I took everything in me to cross that bridge, but I did it, even though I was scared.

[The flashback ends as Gator puff into the village on the other side of the bridge]

Gator: So, you see, being brave isn't the same as not feeling scared. Being brave is about what you do even when you do feel scared.

Rusty: That was a great story, Gator. Thank you for the advice.

Ajabu: We'll be sure to keep that in mind. I know, I would since I help The Lion Guard beat Makucha despite my fear of him when he tried to eat me.

Gator: Well, there you go. You have a moment to show true bravery. You'II all get your chance.

Sunil Nevla: Even me?

Gator: Yes, Sunil. Even you.

Sunil Nevla: Ah. Thanks.

[Percy smiles, whistles and starts to puff off]

Gator: Percy? Where are you going?

Percy: There's something we have to do.

Maisie Lockwood: Yeah. It's very important. See ya later, Gator.

[Percy and the others set off, leaving Gator with a smile. Later that evening at Tidmouth Sheds, Thomas is getting his wheels oiled by his driver, Bob with Connor and the Irelanders watching when Percy puff up at the side of the sheds]

Percy: Hello, Thomas! Guess what?

Thomas: Um, let me see. Have you been asked to deliver a giant balloon on a flatbed?

Percy: (laughs) No! We've decided to be brave and (puffs forward, revealing his mail trucks) take the mail train tonight!

Irelanders: (cheering)

Thomas: Oh! So you're all not feeling scared about monsters anymore?

Jimmy Z: Being brave isn't about not being scared, Thomas. Being brave is about what you do even when you do feel scared.

Ajabu: Gator taught us that.

Sunil Nevla: He even said that even I could get a chance at being brave since I'm timid and fearful most of the time.

Connor Lacey: That's great, Sunil. That Gator sure knows about being brave.

Bunga: Yeah. I know about being brave too since I'm the bravest on The Lion Guard.

Misty: Yes, Bunga. Maybe he can teach me how to overcome my fear of bugs.

Maisie Lockwood: Well, if you see him later on, then why don't you ask him?

Misty: I will, Maisie.

Fred Jones: Are you two really going to have bravery for Percy's mail run?

Shaggy: Like, we sure are, right, Scoob?

Scooby-Doo: Right, Rhaggy.

Rusty: Besides, there's nothing scary about delivering mail.

Tiny: That's the spirit, Rusty.

Percy: We might as well get going, guys. (whistles and puffs off)

Thomas: Good luck, Percy!

Percy: Thank you, Thomas!

Irelanders: Bye, guys!

[James whistles as he puffs onto the turntable]

James: Be careful out there! Monsters are hard to see in the dark! (laughs)

Percy: Don't you worry about us!

[The turntable stops, allowing James to back down to his berth next to Emily]

Emily: Why are you teasing Percy, Maisie, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Ajabu, Rusty and Sunil like that, James?

James: I'm teasing Percy and the others because they're a scaredy bunch, Emily.

Fuli: James, for the last time, they're not a scaredy bunch!

Connor Lacey: Yeah, besides, everyone gets scared of something sometimes!

James: The problem is that they're not as brave as we are. They get scared too easily.

Brock: So what if they do? They still get the job done.

Twilight Sparkle: Yeah, so there's no need to tease them about it.

James: Whatever you say, Twilight.

The Fat Controller: (walking up) Oh, there you are, James! Don't settle down. I need you to pull the Flying Kipper tonight and deliver fresh fish for the morning.

James: But that's Henry's job!

Zazu: Yeah, why isn't he pulling it tonight?

The Fat Controller: Henry has taken a heavy goods train to the mainland. He won't be back before tomorrow.

Minka Mark: I hope he'll be okay spending the night on the mainland.

The Fat Controller: Of course he'II be OK, Minka. Don't you worry.

James: Well, why can't Emily do it? Or Thomas? I don't like pulling trucks.

Aviva Corcovado: (sighs) Because, James, you're a mixed traffic engine. Which means that you pull both coaches and trucks, whether you like it or not.

The Fat Controller: Aviva's right and besides, I'm asking you, James. You can't always do the jobs you like, you know.

Discord: (laughs) That's what Clarabel said this morning.

Daphne Blake: Yeah. That is a bit amusing.

[James whistles and puffs off]

Emily: Be careful out there, James. Monsters can be very hard to see in the dark.

[James puffs on, feeling cross by Emily mimicking what he said to Percy and the others beforehand. The scene changes to Brendam Docks at night where Gator is idling around, waiting for his ship to arrive]

Narrator: Gator was still waiting for his ship when the Dock Manager came by.

Dock Manger: Oliver was due to bring some trucks here for shipping, but he's broken down on Duck's branch line. Do you think you could collect the trucks and be back by first light?

Gator: No problem, sir!

Dock Manager: Great! But don't forget...

Gator: Back before first light. I know.

[Gator whistles and puffs off to collect Oliver's trucks]

Narrator: Gator was so excited to be busy and really useful......

[As Gator whistles, his lamp goes out by itself]

Narrator: ....that he didn't even noticed when his lamp went out.

[Meanwhile, Percy, Maisie, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Rusty, Ajabu and Sunil are puffing through the dark countryside with happy looks on their faces]

Narrator: Percy was very happy to be pulling the mail train again.

Percy: Thomas and Connor are right. There's no such thing as monsters. And Gator is right too. We can be brave!

Maisie Lockwood: That's the spirit, Percy! We'll show James that we're not a scaredy bunch!

Ajabu: Now, let's see what things are not monsters.

[Percy look to see the same haystack with the pitchforks sticking out]

Percy: That's not a monster! That's just a haystack! (laughs)

[They puff under some trees where a snowy owl hoots]

Percy: Those aren't monsters either, they're just trees! (laughs) Not scary at all.

Jimmy Z: Yeah, I knew that.

Shaggy: We wooden be scared of ordinary stuff. (laughs with Scooby by the wood joke)

Rusty: That was rather silly of us.

Ajabu: Yes, and nice joke there, Shaggy. You are a riot.

Shaggy: I know. I am good at that, eh, Scoob?

Scooby-Doo: Reah.

Scooby-Dum: Great: (chuckles)

Narrator: Percy and the others didn't feel scared about monsters any more. They felt brave! While James, on the other hand, felt grumpy.

James: It's not fair! First, I'm sent to work at the scrap yard, and now Henry gets to go on holiday to the mainland, while I have to spend the night pulling smelly fish!

[A worker put a crate of fish on top of a stack of fish crates, much to James' disgust]

James: Yuck!

Porter: (laughs) You look like you're in a sunny mood again, James.

James: Huh. Well, it's not sunny. (whistles) It's nighttime.

[He puffs off, leaving Porter rather confused. On Duck's branch line, Oliver is sitting at the yellow flags, waiting for help when he saw Gator coming towards him but couldn't see him properly because of his lamp not being on, Glowy shines her light bulbs]

Oliver: Ohh! Who are you?

Gator: I'm Gator and there's no need to shout! I'm not a monster!

Oliver: I know that. I just couldn't see you coming. Where's your light?

Gator: Where's my what? (looks down and saw that his lamp had gone out much to his and Glowy's surprise) Oh, my lamp! It, it must have gone out. I didn't realize. Sorry, Oliver!

Glowy: Let's turn your lamp back on, Gator.

[Gator's driver taps the lamp and it flickers back on]

Narrator: His driver lit his lamp again and Gator went to turn around on the loop to collect the trucks.

[Gator puff past Toad, Oliver's brakevan who got surprised by his appearance. Minutes later, Gator puffs up to Toad in the other direction]

Toad: Good evening, Mr Gator, sir and Miss Glowy, ma'am. My name's Toad and I'II be your brakevan this evening.

Gator: Very nice to meet you, Toad!

Glowy: Hola.

[Gator puffs to the front of the train and backs down onto it on Oliver's line then whistles and puffs off]

Gator: Goodbye, Oliver!

Oliver: See you later, Gator! In a while, um, Toad.

Toad: Bye, Mr. Oliver! We'II deliver your trucks, we will! Don't worry!

Narrator: Gator, Glowy and Toad had hardly gone very far when Gator's lamp went out again.

Gator: Oh, no!

Toad: What is it, Mr Gator? Is everything alright?

Gator: Everything's fine, Toad. It's just my lamp. It's gone out again.

Toad: Your lamp's gone out? Then, you must stop and relight it. It's dangerous to cross the island at night without a light.

Toad: Yes, I know, but I think there's something wrong with that lamp. It won't stay lit.

Glowy: It must be malfunctioning or something.

Narrator: Gator stop near a junction to light his lamp again. While he was waiting, James came along with the Flying Kipper.

[James puff crossly towards the junction. He then looks up at the night sky in confusion]

Gator: Hello.

[James look to see Gator's silhouette in front of him and because his lamp is off, he can't see him properly and mistook him for a monster like Percy and the others]

James: (screams)

[He raced off in fright. Glowy taps Gator's lamp twice to turn it back on]

Gator: Not again. (sighs)

[Percy, Maisie, Shaggy, Scooby, Jimmy, Ajabu, Rusty and Sunil are puffing along the line when they saw James racing past him, screaming, much to their confusion]

James: (screaming)

Maisie Lockwood: James?

Shaggy: What's gotten into him?

Scooby-Doo: I don't know.

Scooby-Dum: Me neither. (chuckles)

[James sped through Wellsworth, still screaming in fright]

Narrator: James was so frightened that he missed the red signal, hit the points, came off the rails and ended up in a pond!

[James crashes into the pond at the Fenland Track]

James: (spluttering and whimpers)

[A frog croaks on his running board as Gator puff up onto the Fenland]

Gator: Are you alright? I didn't mean to give you a fright.

Percy: (puffing up alongside Gator) Oh, James! Ha-ha. We've see you've met Gator.

Jimmy Z: Yeah. So who's the scaredy engine now, huh? That's right. You!

Sunil Nevla: That'll teach you to call us a scaredy bunch!

Maisie Lockwood: (giggles, thinking that it's very funny) Well, well, James, it looks like you're the scaredy engine now!

[James looks away and blush in embarrassment. A minute later, Gator, Glowy and Toad are on their way again]

Toad: Now we're making progress, Mr Gator and Miss Glowy! (Gator's lamp went out again) We'II soon be at the docks!

Percy: (puffing past Gator, Glowy and Toad) Gator! Where's your lamp?!

Glowy: Uh-oh.

Toad: Mr Gator, is your lamp out again?

Gator: Yes, I mean, no! Oh, OK, yes. But it doesn't matter.

Toad: I'm sorry to contradict you, Mr Gator, but it does matter. You need to stop.

Gator: I can't keep stopping. I have to get back to the docks before morning!

Glowy: Gator, Toad's right! You can't see where you're going in the dark without your lamp.

Toad: Really, sir, I must insist that you stop and light your lamp!

[Gator, Toad and Glowy approaches a junction up ahead]

Toad: Mr Gator, please! We're approaching a junction. This is where the tracks come on from the gravel pits! There may be gravel on the tracks! Slow down!

Glowy: Stop, Gator!

Toad: Right, that's it. (he slam on his brakes, slowing Gator down) Mr Gator, if you don't stop then you'II give me a wheel flat!

[Gator crossly stops at the junction]

Toad: Oh, thank goodness, you've seen the light at last!

Glowy: Oh, you mean the signalbox light. I get it.

Toad: Now, I'm not going any further unless you relight your lamp!

Gator: Fine! Then I'II go without you and Glowy!

Toad and Glowy: What?!

[Toad is being uncoupled from the train]

Toad: It's dangerous to go without a brakevan, you know.

Gator: I know! (whistles and puffs off) But it might be quicker and quieter too!

Narrator: Gator left Toad and Glowy behind and hurried on towards the junction. Then, there was trouble!

[Gator runs into gravel on the tracks, making him shake a bit]

Gator: Oh, no! Gravel!

[Gator puffs to a stop as he went into gravel, realizing that Toad and Glowy were right all along. Back with Toad and Glowy]

Narrator: Toad and Glowy were still fuming when they heard something coming back along the tracks.

Toad: Hello? Who's that? Be careful! Brakevan on the line!

Glowy: Explorer Star hovering!

Gator: Sorry, Toad. You and Glowy were right all along about everything.

Toad: I was only doing my job, Mr Gator.

Glowy: So was I since I have light bulbs on all my five points.

Gator: I just wanted to be really useful.

Toad: And so do I. When engines go too fast to be safe, it's my job to slow them down.

Gator: Especially when they don't have a lamp.

Toad: Especially then.

Glowy: So what do you say we give you some help?

Gator: I can't get my lamp lit so it looks like we're going to be stuck here until morning. (sighs) Perhaps I'm not a very useful engine after all.

Narrator: And that's when Toad had a very bright idea!

Toad: Mr Gator! I've got two lamps!

Gator: Go on.

Toad: How about I lend you one of my lamps so you can see the way and show other engines you're approaching?

Glowy: And I can help by using my light bulbs. (perches herself on Gator's other funnel and turns her light bulbs on)

[Gator smiles. Soon, they're on their way again with Toad's lamp on Gator's front to help him see where he's going and Glowy by his small funnel on his head]

Narrator: So that's just what they did! The driver changed the lens from red to white, Glowy perched herself in front of Gator's small funnel above his head and shone her light bulbs and Gator pulled Oliver's trucks all the way to the docks without any further trouble.

[Dawn breaks as Gator reaches the docks]

Dock Manger: Well done, Gator! You're just in time! You had me worried for a while!

Gator: I had a little trouble with my lamp, sir.

Dock Manger: (looking at Toad's lamp) It looks fine to me, Gator.

Gator: That's not my lamp, sir. It belongs to Toad. He suggested I borrow it as mine wasn't working and Glowy had her light bulbs to help out as well.

Dock Manger: Is that so? Well done, Toad and Glowy.

Glowy: Gracias, senor.

[Toad is uncoupled from the train and Gator puff forward to allow the points to switch behind him and puffs backwards onto the other line next to Toad]

Toad: I'II be sad to see you go when your ship comes in, Mr Gator.

Glowy: Me too. It's too bad that you'II be leaving very soon.

Gator: Oh, it won't be for a while yet, guys. I'm sorry for getting cross. I was fed up with people being surprised by my appearance and mistaking me for a monster!

Glowy: I didn't mistake you for a monster though and it's only because they couldn't see you coming
