Tod Owes Up

Tod owes up is an upcoming episode in Thomas, Twilight, Brian Griffin, and friends' Amazing Escapades.

Plot
Tod is still new to H.G. Island and tells Daylight how very grateful he is that Knockout rescued him from being scrapped on the Other Railway. That night, the Western Locos praise Tod. Unfortunately, Tod, who has never been complimented by big engines before, soon becomes puffed up in the smokebox.

After pulling some coaches to the station, Tod is told by Hiatt Grey that he must learn how to handle trucks. However, Tod is so confident in himself that he ignores the other engines' warnings. Daylight tries to convince Tod, but Knkcout suggests that Tod should learn for himself. After arranging some loaded trucks and then shunting empties to the hopper, he goes back to take the loaded trucks. But, the loaded trucks do not want Tod, preferring Puffer, Jenny, and Kevin instead.

Tod bosses the trucks about and takes them anyway. But the trucks decide to show Tod who is boss by forcing him down the tracks. Tod puts his weight against the trucks, but they still push him on, unaware of the danger ahead - he is heading towards the turntable. Then the inevitable happens - Oliver ends up bunker-first in the turntable well.

Daylight is very concerned about Tod's predicament, as now the engines will have to work without the use of the turntable. That night, the breakdown train rescues Tod. Hiatt Grey says that Tod has a lot to learn about the troublesome nature of trucks, and Tod agrees.

Once home from the works, Tod is a much wiser engine and knows how to handle trucks.
