Season 3 Episode 18: All At Sea

Duck and Percy are having a great time working at the harbor. One morning, the two stop to admire some sail boats. Duck mentions that he has a dream of sailing the ocean blue. Percy immediately shuts him down and reminds him that he is made of iron will sink. 


Then I will dream of being a scuba diver.

Snobby Harold arrives between the two conversing.  Harold lands on a helicopter pad in the bay this blocks Duck's and Percy's view of the boats. Harold explains that it is the regatta and he is looking for drowning models of people in distress. He flies beyond the horizon doing his duties. This blows the two engines' minds that there is a beyond. 

Just around the river bend...

The news of the great beyond sticks with Duck all through the day. He rambles to the point he drives Percy up a wall. 

Just then an alarm sounds. The driver informs Duck that a man has hurt his hand. They are going to meet up with Harold and take him to the hospital. They head off.

Harold lands on the platform and transfers over the man to Duck. Harold snobbishly remarks he must stay at sea.

I think something happened to his face too.

Duck heads off with the injured man. At the station, Duck drops off the man and transfers him to Bertie. Bertie remarks on how splendid Duck looked flying down the line. (Never mind that injured guy. Let's chit chat.)

Ducks feels beautiful and decides engines are better on the rails. He is feeling like hot stuff now. He heads back to the key. 

That night, Percy and Duck stay late to admire the view. Duck spots a shooting star. Percy crushes Duck again by pointing out it is just Harold. Harold drops something down to Duck.

Duck's driver catches it. It is a flag from Harold. On it says, "Well Done Duck."

Well done duck!


Duck still wonders what is the great beyond but, he knows his pace. He will forever be a pawn on The Fat Slave Driver's railway. 

Shoehorned Thomas.
