Season 4 Episode 13: Passengers and Polish

Today we meet Nancy, who is one of the guard's daughter. She is out helping out making the engines looks beautiful and sexy as hell. 
Nancy is working on Skarloey and would at least like some friendly conversation with him. But, Skarloey refuses to talk to her, he rather daydream about his bro, Rheneas and how he misses him.

At least she is not polishing his knob.

Nancy interrupts Skarloey's dreams with the news that Rheneas is one his way back soon. Skarloey nearly steams himself with excitement. He begs Nancy to give him the ultimate makeover for Rheneas' return. 

Duncan puffs up along Skarloey and rather perversely asks to be polished too. (It's a snark blog, I've been easy so far.)

I have candy in bunker.

Nancy, in my mind, creeped out by Duncan refuses to polish him. She insists that she has to help The Refreshment Lady with ices for the passengers. And excuses herself yelling, "Stranger Danger!" 

Duncan rejected, goes into a rant about how he is left out. Everyone is getting new things but him. This sets Duncan's mood for the whole day. He then goes along with his business griping about it.


Later that afternoon, Duncan's driver gets the news that one of Skarloey's coaches derailed and he needs rescued. After arguing, Duncan and crew grab some workmen and head up to help. 

Duncan finds that Skarloey's coaches derailed in the middle. Skarloey had taken the front coaches to the top station and had left the rest for Duncan to take home.

How does one do that?

Taking on the rest the load really pushes Duncan's asshole meter to high. He complains the whole way, about being used and abused. In fact, he uses up all his energy on complaining and runs himself out of steam. His driver waits to see if he can get Duncan to build up some more but, it isn't working.

Oh Duncan Doughnuts, you're going for the "Snarkies, Biggest Asshole" award aren't you?

Eventually, after biting his driver's head off about not caring about him and only the paying passengers, Duncan builds up steam again. 

Duncan hits the viaduct before the station and his driver bribes him with the promise of rest and water if he finishes the job. But, that backfires in the driver's face. Duncan stops and refuses to move again.

Oh that, Duncan!

Poor Skarloey, has to come up to the viaduct and drag Duncan's pissy ass to the station. 

At the station, the passenger storm off and start the complaining.  (Once again, don't they check the ratings of this railway?)

That night, The Fat Controller rolls in and hands it to Duncan. The crew just brushes it off as Duncan has a lot of learning to do.

So basically, they accepted that he's an asshole.
