00:00The engines love working when the sun shines.
00:06One day Thomas and Percy were helping Salty at the docks, but Salty was worried.
00:12It may be sunny now, matey, but there be a storm coming.
00:19It may be sunny now, matey, but there be a storm coming.
00:26There be a fierce storm on the way, Cap'n, peeped Percy.
00:30Salty knew they were making fun of him. He felt sad.
00:36Later the Fat Controller arrived.
00:39I want you to fetch Fergus from the smelters.
00:42His driver doesn't know the line.
00:45Aye, aye, sir, replied Salty sadly.
00:49Salty was glad he was going to the smelters.
00:52He didn't want to stay where he wasn't liked.
00:55What's wrong? asked Emily.
00:58Nobody likes being made fun of by silly tank engines.
01:02Goodbye.
01:05Emily knew she had to find Thomas and Percy immediately.
01:13Those be dark clouds, matey.
01:16Those be dark clouds, matey, whistled Thomas.
01:19There be a fierce storm on the way, Cap'n, peeped Percy.
01:23Emily was cross. It's no nice to copy the way others speak.
01:27You hurt Salty's feelings.
01:29We were just having fun, said Percy.
01:32We'll say sorry to him, added Thomas.
01:37But Salty was nowhere to be found.
01:41Thomas and Percy were worried.
01:45Fergus was waiting for Salty when he arrived at the smelters.
01:50Right on time, congratulated Fergus.
01:53Aye, but there's a storm coming, said Salty.
01:57We must hurry.
01:59Soon they were hooked up and ready to go.
02:03Salty was right about the storm. It was a fierce one.
02:10The ships at sea depend upon the lighthouse to keep them safely off the rocks.
02:15But now there was trouble.
02:25The lighthouse landed.
02:29The lighthouse lamp has gone out, cried the Cap'n.
02:38Salty and Fergus were fighting their way back through the wind and rain.
02:44Then Salty saw a lantern ahead.
02:49The lighthouse keeper was waiting for him.
02:52Our lighthouse lamp has gone out.
02:55Our lighthouse lamp has gone out. Our generator has broken.
02:59Salty had an idea.
03:01Fergus has a flywheel. It could power the generator.
03:04Hurry, shouted the lighthouse keeper.
03:08Fergus' flywheel was attached to the generator shaft.
03:13Without the lighthouse, the ship was steaming towards the rocks.
03:19Fergus was working as fast as he could.
03:23Finally, the generator came back to life.
03:28The lighthouse beam shone across the stormy sea once more.
03:34Just in time.
03:36Harder starboard, matey.
03:40Salty's idea had saved the day.
03:44Fergus worked hard until first light.
03:49The next morning, Salty and Fergus chugged back to the docks.
03:53They were surprised to see a crowd waiting for them.
03:57Thank you, said the Cap'n. You saved our ship.
04:01Well done, boomed the Fat Controller.
04:04We're sorry if we hurt your feelings, puffed Thomas.
04:07We were only copying you because we think you're grand.
04:11Then say no more, me hearties, replied Salty happily.
04:15Now they will all work together and have fun together, as good friends should.
