Season 5 Episode 4: Lady Hatt's Birthday Party

Thomas and Percy are waiting on at the station, when a friend we have not seen for awhile shows up. It's Bertie. Bertie asks the the two engines, "If they noticed that The Fat Controller seems different to them?"

Percy agrees that he seems a little spacey lately. He was staring at the clouds as if he was in love. 

I just love ice buns so much!

At The Fat Controller's house, we find that it is his fine lady's birthday. The Fat Controller tries on his new outfit he bought for the occasion. Lady Hatt finds him irresistible in his new suit. She couldn't wait for her party where she could stare at him all night. Lady Hatt reminds him not to be late for her party. She wants that grand finale present.

Mmm... I can't wait for the celebration!

Later that day, The Fat Controller is all dressed up in the new suit, which looks like the usual one. The Station Master tries his best not to burst his bubble on that one and tells him he looks smoking. The Fat Controller explains that he is going to take the car to the party since all his engines are tied up. The Station Master questions whether his car is in good shape or not. The Fat Controller makes the mistake of saying yes.

Yeah I'm not seeing much of a difference.

The Fat Controller takes off in his Hatt Mobile. While driving it, he hits a big pot hole and gets a flat. He complains that if he changes his wheel, his suit will be all dirty and he'll never get laid.

Maybe you should watch the road better?

Caroline arrives at the scene. The Fat Controller asks if Caroline can give him a lift to the party? Caroline agrees. (Wait, why does she talk but, his car doesn't?)

Caroline takes off in a hurry. She began to overheat due to being menopausal and breaks down. Just up the road George rolls in. He starts to turn angry over the sight of Caroline. George begins to insult her. His driver on the other hand, was way more polite and offered The Fat Controller a ride to Thomas. (Of course)

They had a history.

While riding on George, The Fat Controller began to be splashed with oil. His suit was being ruined. But, it was about to get worst. George had went out of control and slid right into a mud patch. Throwing the Fat Controller into it.

Now, I'll never get laid.

Just as luck would have it, Thomas was up above taking on water. Thomas' driver asks The Fat Controller if he needed any help? The Fat Controller explains that he needs a ride to the party. But, unfortunately Thomas' fireman is sick. The Fat Controller decides to try to give it a shot anyhow and he'll be the fireman. Because hell, why does it matter anymore? 

The Fat Controller soon finds out what it is like to be one of the little people. He was soon even more dirtier. 

He even cries about it.

They soon arrive at the station. The Fat Controller looks at the clock and sees that he had made it just in time. He quickly buys some flowers to try to save grace. 

At the party, Lady Hatt is waiting for him. The Fat Controller makes a grand entrance through the door, like it is his birthday. He then gives the flowers to his wife. She makes a comment about how scrubby her husband looks and the crowd laughs. 

Then the upper class counties her birthday celebration.

Dirty looking people are funny.

Season 4 Episode 17: Train Stop Play

Mr. Stepney is still visiting the North Western Railway.  He takes a moment to talk to some of the others. Stepney is quit envious of their line. They have plenty of room to run and also get to use trucks. 

Percy is taken back by the suggestion that any engine would want to pull those assholes. But, he gives some of his trucks to Stepney, so he can have a good time.

Psst... I just ripped one, Stepney.

The two engines head off to work. Stepney takes the trucks to the harbor. He then gathers some empty ones to take back. 

On the way, back he sees a cricket game being played. Right above the field, was a signal. 

Stepney was stopped right at it, when the cricket ball flies right into his trucks. Of course, right then the signal drops and they head off.

Notice the cart is now full.

The cricket players yell at them to stop. But, who listens to cricket players? The players hop into their old bat of a car named Caroline, to chase after Stepney.

Caroline is so depressed.

Caroline catches up with Stepney but, he can not hear her tooting. (Put a plug in that tail pipe.) The driver looks over and sees the car following. He just assumes they want to race. He puts Stepney in over drive. 

Caroline is rather annoyed by having to speed up. She claims she is being mistreated in her old age. (Elder abuse!) She sees that Stepney has gone through a tunnel and foolishly thinks this is the end. But, the driver keeps pushing the gas. 

Caroline catches up with Stepney at the station. The players climb out of her, demanding their ball back. One brave man climbs into the the trucks and retrieves it. 

Oops my mistake, this is a ball from a S&M gag.

The players want to head back quickly but, Caroline has overheated.

I'm having a hot flash!

They come up with a plan for Caroline to be pulled on a flat cart by Stepney while the boys ride in a brake van. 

Once at the field, they watch the hot young men play with their ball and swing their bats. The sweat pouring out of their pours was a beautiful sight. It even cheered Caroline up.

Even Bulgy was there.
