Season 2 Episode 23: Edward's Exploit

Bertie has been off tooting around giving tours of Sodor. Today is the last afternoon of the tourists' visit and total hottie Edward is scheduled to take them to the China Clay Works to met Bill And Ben. But, Edward is having old man issues to today. He is struggling to start his train.


I should have took my multi vitamins. 

Of course, Henry, James, and Gordon are there to mock him. They are really into tearing down old men. They visit the Sodor Senior Home just to practice on them before the make fun of Edward. 

Duck points out the obvious that Edward is better then any of them. Boco agrees. With the extra encouragement Edward starts to pull out of the station, minus his eyebrows. 

Edward if you don't stop keeping your eyebrows on, you are going to loose your status as Total Hottie.

Edward arrives at the Clay Works to let the passengers see Bill and Ben. We find that Bill and Ben love the paparazzi. They love the flash of cameras in their faces and the glamour of it. They even like every good celebrity engine should, take the tourists on a break van special

Bill tipped them off.

We have a montage of Bill and Ben touring around their adoring fans. Everyone seems to be having a great time. Bill and Ben head back to give the tourists back to Edward.

On the way home, the weather began to turn rainy and stormy. Well, they are near England. Edward's sanding gear failed. His fireman had to ride up front sanding the line.


No fair, I want to stand there!

Edward's wheels began to slip and he breaks something. I vote broken hip!  Edward needs a walker in his advice age. He is still a cutie though. I like them old.

Edward's crew gets out to examine the damage. Edward has broken his crank pin. They take his side rods off and explain he'll have to run like an old fashioned engine. Edward promises to try to get them home.

Edward old boy, you're getting Life Alert for Christmas.

Edward struggles to start again. Edward's crew gets out and starts to make adjustments on the coaches to help Eddie out. They loosen the couplings so Edward can pick his coaches up one by one. 

Edward starts up again and he slowly gets his train moving. Edward being a cute old man/engine, chants, "He's done it!"

You go Edward!

Edward arrives at night in Knapford. Understandably, he is exhausted. Henry is waiting for him to gather the visitors. The Fat Controller is angry that Edward is late. Geez, cut him a break he is a golden oldie. The passengers cheer and thank the crew.

At the sheds that night, Duck and Boco made sure Edward was treated like the gem he is. 

James looks like he's been sniffing glue.
