00:00Bill and Ben are quarry engines. They are twins. They play together. They shunt trucks together.
00:12They even get up to naughtiness together.
00:30Wherever you find Bill, you will find Ben. Wherever you find Ben, you will find Bill.
00:40The Fat Controller had come to inspect his quarry engines. He found that Mavis and Bill were in fine working order.
00:48Unfortunately, Ben, the Fat Controller said, your buffers are damaged. You must report to the Engine Works immediately for a new set of buffers. Mavis, you will have to work with Bill until Ben returns.
01:00Yes, sir, replied Mavis, and the Fat Controller drove away.
01:06Ben was happy. I'm going to get new buffers, he gloated to Bill. Well, I should get new buffers too, Bill complained.
01:14We're twins. We do everything together. But you don't need new buffers, Ben teased.
01:20You're only getting new buffers because you're clumsy, snorted Bill enviously. No, I'm not. Yes, you are. No, I'm not. Yes, you are.
01:30Will you two stop being grouchy, Mavis scolded. Now, come on, Bill, we've got work to do.
01:40Ben couldn't wait to get new buffers. Later, Bill watched as Ben chuffed away to the Engine Works.
01:50He was green with envy. He wanted new buffers too.
01:56Bill returned to his job, but he wasn't thinking about work. All he could think about was Ben's new buffers.
02:03Ooh, said Bill.
02:13Be careful, said Mavis, and stop thinking about Ben's new buffers.
02:20Bill tried thinking about birds. He tried thinking about trees.
02:26He tried thinking about anything but Ben and his brand new buffers.
02:33But it didn't work.
02:42I want new buffers too, he cried. Just be happy you're in good working order, said Mavis.
02:49It's not fair, Bill huffed, and he wheezed soot all over Mavis. Bill gasped Mavis.
02:56Oops, sorry, said Bill. Bill tried his best to get on with his work, but the Troublesome Trucks had spotted a chance for a tease.
03:06Poor, poor Bill. He works, he suffers, while Ben, his twin, gets brand new buffers.
03:12This made Bill very cross.
03:14I might not have new buffers, he said, but I still know how to biff a truck.
03:22No, Mavis cried.
03:26But it was too late.
03:30Ben puffed into the quarry with his shiny new buffers just in time to hear.
03:34Bust my buffers, cried Bill. I think you have, said Ben.
03:42When the Fat Controller arrived and saw Bill's broken buffers, he was not happy.
03:46You have behaved badly, Bill, the Fat Controller said. Do you have anything to say for yourself?
03:53Yes, sir. I'm sorry, sir, said Bill.
03:57Before you get new buffers, the Fat Controller continued, I want you to think about what it means to be a responsible, reliable engine.
04:05Yes, sir, answered Bill meekly.
04:11After the Fat Controller had left, Ben rolled up to Bill with his new buffers gleaming.
04:17They are nice buffers, Bill said.
04:20Thanks, Ben said. I'm sorry I teased you.
04:22That's all right, Bill said. I was naughty too.
04:24Of course you were, said Ben. We're twins.
