00:00Race to the rescue.
00:05The engines on the Fat Controller's railway are all special.
00:10Some are big, some are small.
00:14Some push freight trucks, and some pull passenger carriages.
00:21And then there's Flynn, the Sodor Island fire engine.
00:28One morning, Flynn was in the steamworks.
00:31Flynn's road wheels were wobbly.
00:34Victor was fixing him.
00:36Flynn looked worried.
00:38Have you finished yet, Victor?
00:40Victor chuffed kindly.
00:42Don't worry, my friend. All will be well.
00:46Thomas wanted to make his friend Flynn feel happy.
00:49You are a very special fire engine, Flynn.
00:52You can ride on the rails or roll on the roads.
00:56But I haven't rolled on the roads for a very long time.
01:01My wheels will wobble.
01:04No, they won't.
01:06You're fixed.
01:08Now you can rescue on the roads as well as the rails.
01:13Thank you, Victor. Thank you, Thomas.
01:17And Flynn trundled slowly away.
01:21Flynn stopped at a quiet junction.
01:25No one is here to see me. I'll try out my road wheels.
01:30So Flynn rolled on to the road.
01:35He wobbled all over the road.
01:39He didn't feel like Fiery Flynn at all.
01:42Just then, Charlie chuffed by.
01:47Hello, Flynn. What's the matter?
01:51You look like a big red wobble on wheels.
01:56Flynn wanted to laugh, but he felt silly.
02:00They need you at the Sodor Search and Rescue Centre.
02:03You must hurry, if you can.
02:10Flynn made a decision.
02:13I don't want people to see me on the road.
02:16They'll think I'm a big red wobble on wheels.
02:20I'll roll back on the rails.
02:23So Flynn wobbled back on to the tracks.
02:28At the Sodor Search and Rescue Centre, Rocky was pleased to see Flynn.
02:34There's an emergency, Flynn. The Fat Controller's shed is on fire.
02:40Firefighter Flynn ready and steady and raring to rescue.
02:46You must hurry. Take the road. It's the fastest way.
02:51Flynn gulped. He didn't want to take the road.
02:55He didn't want anyone to see him wobbling.
02:59Don't worry, Rocky. I'll race on the rails. I'll be there faster than fast.
03:06If you say so, Flynn.
03:09But Flynn had already raced away.
03:13On the tracks, Flynn felt fast. Flynn felt fearless.
03:19Then he saw Butch. Butch had broken down.
03:23Flynn slowed.
03:25Hello, Flynn. I need to be told to the Search and Rescue Centre.
03:30Can you help?
03:32Flynn wanted to help Butch, but that meant he would have to roll onto the roads.
03:39And Flynn didn't want Butch and his driver to see him wobble.
03:44Flynn didn't want them to call him a big red wobble on wheels.
03:50I'm very sorry, Butch. I have to race to an emergency.
03:55The Fat Controller's shed is on fire.
03:58And Flynn rattled on.
04:02At the level crossing, the gates were closed. Flynn had to stop.
04:09Going on the tracks was taking a very long time.
04:13Flaming funnels! I'm late to fight the Fat Controller's fire!
04:18Then Flynn saw Bertie the bus. Bertie's engine had overheated.
04:23Bertie's passengers watched and waited.
04:27Hello, Bertie. What's the problem?
04:29It's my engine, Flynn. I need water to cool it down. Can you help?
04:35Flynn wanted to help Bertie, but that meant he would have to roll onto the road.
04:41And now there were even more people to watch him wobble.
04:45Flynn didn't want all Bertie's passengers to call him a big red wobble on wheels.
04:51I'm very sorry, Bertie. I have to race to an emergency.
04:56The Fat Controller's shed is on fire!
04:59Flynn felt bad, but he didn't want to feel silly, so Flynn raced on.
05:06At last, Flynn pulled up to the Fat Controller's burning shed.
05:12There was a crowd around it. The Fat Controller was cross.
05:17Flynn, where have you been? This was an emergency!
05:22I raced as fast as I could, sir.
05:25But why did you come on the rails? I told Rocky you must come on the road.
05:31Flynn didn't know how to say that he felt silly on the road.
05:36I'm sorry, sir. I...
05:37No excuses, Flynn! No more delay!
05:41Flynn looked at the fire. Then he looked at the crowd.
05:46Oh, my. Now there are even more people to see me wobble.
05:52And even more people to call me a big red wobble on wheels.
05:58I can't... I can't go onto the road.
06:02Flynn felt terrible.
06:04I'm not fiery, Flynn. I'm frightened, Flynn.
06:08The Fat Controller's shed is burning down, and it's all my fault.
06:13Flynn looked at the crowd. They were waiting and watching.
06:18Hooray for Flynn!
06:20Sodor's firefighting hero has arrived!
06:24Flynn looked and he listened. Then his wheels stopped wobbling.
06:30I am fiery, Flynn. I am Sodor's firefighter.
06:35I want to be a hero. I don't mind if they call me a big red wobble on wheels.
06:42I'm raring to rescue. I'm coming, sir!
06:46Flynn raced to the road. His wheels wobbled, but Flynn didn't mind.
06:53He was Firefighter Flynn of the road and rail.
06:58Stand back for Flynn!
07:03Water flew into the fire. The flames flickered and fizzled out.
07:12Well done, Flynn!
07:14Thank you, sir. But now I must hurry. I have others to rescue.
07:20First, Flynn rescued Bertie. He pumped in water to cool Bertie's engine.
07:27Charlie chuffed to a stop. He chuckled.
07:31There's my friend, the big red wobble on wheels!
07:36The big red wobble on wheels!
07:39This time, Flynn didn't mind Charlie's joke.
07:43I may wobble, but I'm raring to rescue. Bye, Bertie!
07:49Flynn flashed a smile. Bertie beamed.
07:53Thank you, Flynn. Hooray for you!
07:57Next, Flynn pulled up to Butch.
08:01Here I am, Butch! Ready and raring to rescue!
08:06Butch was surprised.
08:08Thank you, Flynn.
08:10Flynn raced along the roads.
08:14Flynn arrived at the search and rescue centre. Thomas was there.
08:20Hello, Flynn. You're not wobbling at all.
08:23Flynn was surprised.
08:26You mean I'm not a big red wobble on wheels?
08:30Thomas laughed.
08:32No, you're a big red hero on wheels!
08:36And this time, Flynn's wheels did wobble with joy.
