Heading back to Sodor/We're Friends Reprise/The Fat Controller Meets Ace/End Credits

This is how the heading back to Sodor scene goes in Lightning McQueen's Adventures of Thomas and Friends: Big World! Big Adventures! The Movie.

[Later, the Chinese diesel uses a breakdown crane to lift Nia back onto the tracks whilst Lightning and his friends are stood around Thomas, worried looks on their faces]

Lightning McQueen: Thomas, listen, bud. I have something to say even if you don't make it.

[Thomas remains unconscious as Nia watches in sadness]

Lightning McQueen: You achieved your dream. You finally saw the world. Maybe not all of it but some.

Dusty Crophopper: But you did the right thing. Giving your life to save Nia.

Rita: We will miss you greatly but we will never forget you.

[Then just as Nia starts to cry over the loss of her friend, Thomas coughs and wakes up]

Thomas: [groans] What happened?

Nia: Thomas!

Hugo: You're alive!

Thomas: Of course I'm alive! Why wouldn't I be? Yong Bao? What's he doing here?

Sarge: It's a long story, soldier.

Mayday: You really gave us a fright you know.

Thomas: I know. (to Nia) Oh, Nia. I should never have tried to rescue you by myself. That was really dangerous. I needed help.

Nia: Everybody needs help sometimes, Thomas. Even me. And we're all safe now.

Thomas: Thanks to Yong Bao.

Yong Bao: I still can't believe how close that was. You really gave me a fright, Thomas, McQueen and friends. Let's never do that again! OK? (chuckles)

Thomas: Fine with us, Yong Bao. We're just glad you're bigger and stronger than we are.

Nia: We are bigger and stronger too, Thomas, when we stay together.

Rita: Yes. You know what they say, strength in numbers.

Mater: Wow, not only you're the cutest fox cub we've ever met but you're smartest too.

Rita: Thanks.

Lightning McQueen: Guess us saving your life made up for that trick didn't it?

Nia: Yes, it did.

Dusty Crophopper: I'm glad we're friends again.

Yong Bao: So where are you going now, Thomas?

[Thomas thinks then as he about to say something, Nia speaks]

Nia: Back to Sodor! And then Thomas will be the first railway engine to go all the way around the world!

Thomas: No, Nia, we both will be!

Yong Bao: If you want to go to Sodor, you have to go west through Asia and Europe.

Nia: So, Europe must be the last continent on your route, Thomas.

Thomas, Nia and cars: Continent number 5!

Thomas: Ha-ha! (toots) Thanks, Yong Bao!

Nia: Bye!

Cars: See ya!

Yong Bao: Go safely now! Bye!

[They've reached Vicarstown Bridge where Nia saw that Thomas looks sad]

Nia: What's wrong, Thomas?

Thomas: On the other side of that bridge is Sodor, Nia. And And when I get there, I'II be home again.

Lightning McQueen: And we need to go back home to the US to Radiator Springs and Propwash Junction.

Dusty Crophopper: Looks like you need to go back home to Kenya too, Nia.

Nia: (sighs) That's not so easy for me, Dusty.

Dusty Crophopper: What do you mean?

Nia: The shed I used to lived in isn't even there any more.

Thomas: It isn't?

Nia: No, Thomas. I don't really have a home to go back to.

Thomas: You don't?

[Nia sadly shakes her head]

Thomas: Oh, Nia. I'm so sorry.

Lightning McQueen: We didn't know.

Hugo: We're also sorry for your loss.

Chug: But, Nia, aren't there other sheds for you to look for?

Nia: I'm afraid there's no spare sheds for me at all.

Rita: Then you're really are homeless.

[The cars look sad for Nia's loss of a home]

Thomas: But that means you can come and stay on Sodor with me. I'm sure the Fat Controller won't mind. He loves having new engines to help out on his railway!

Skipper Riley: Are you sure about this, Thomas?

Thomas: Of course.

Sheriff: She definitely needs a home to live in, Skip.

Holley Shiftwell: Thomas is offering her a new home so why are you not okay with it?

Skipper Riley: Well, he'd need to discuss it with the Fat Controller.

Thomas: That's what I intended to do, Skipper. So, do you want Nia to have a new home or not?

Skipper Riley: Well, if that's what you want, then I'll agree to it.

Sparky: That's what I like to hear.

Sally: Then let's get going and bring Nia to Sodor.

Thomas: (toots) Come on, Nia! Welcome to Sodor!

Nia: I'm coming!!

Thomas: Huh?

Lightning McQueen: Guys, look!

Dusty Crophopper: Holy smokes!

[The engines, Donald, Douglas, Oliver, Daisy, Philip, Henry, Edward, Toby, Gordon, Percy, Emily, James, The Thin Controller and a crowd of people have gathered outside of Knapford with a banner saying WELCOME HOME, THOMAS hanging on a signal grate to welcome Thomas, Nia and the cars home]

[Everyone cheered, whistles and honks as confetti was launched into the air]

Percy: Thomas! You, McQueen and the others were gone so long, we thought you were never going to come home!

Gordon: Even I missed you, Thomas.

The Thin Controller: Congratulations, Thomas! And you too, Lightning and Friends. Oh, and who might you
