Percy quotes from Thomas & Friends

That's not a happy ending!

Ah, there will be one, but that will have to wait until next time.

Driver should be here by now. What's he doing?

Sleeping.

But that means I'll be late! The coaches will be waiting, and the passengers will get cross!

Rubbish!

It's still early. You just want to show off.

No, I don't.

[sees nothing but mail bags on the station platform] What happened to Tom?

And his old van? No wonder the new postman looks cross. Trying to carry mailbags on a bicycle would make anyone miserable!

I'm sorry, Mr. Tipper.

Never mind, Percy. It wasn't your fault, but now I've only got my legs to get the mail delivered. Whatever will happen next?

Oh, thank you! What would I have done without you?

Well, I had to be rescued before I could help you, but I never thought it would be a couple of b-b- "Small engines". Thank you, I'll never be rude again. However, you two mites are in my way, so move over!

Pah! He's back to bugging us! [lurches backward]

Don't move! You're still attached to Cranky!

But it was too late.

Hey you down there. Your jobs done now. These lorries are taking over. One of them wants to talk to you.

The lorry was very rude.

What's that steaming lump of scrap iron doing here? Be off with you!

Scrap iron? Steaming scrap iron? Pah!

What's this lump of steaming scrap iron?

I'll be back. So you can wipe that silly smile off your smokebox.

Ha! [blows steam at him loudly]

Then Butch the Breakdown Vehicle arrived. He was towing the lorry from the flour mill.

What happened?

He was overloaded with flour, and he broke down.

Not very useful now are you? (Michael Angelis: Said Toby.)

Grr!

Then James whistled excitedly.

They're bringing in the third lorry on a barge. What happened to that one?

The stupid lorry was reversing and fell straight into the sea.

Later Thomas arrived. He looked at the 3 lorries and laughed.

[looks at the damaged lorries] Well, well, well. The brothers grim. Smashed, broken, and sunk!

Make way for an important engine!

You wouldn't feel important if one of these trees crashed on you. You'd feel hurt.

Rubbish! It wouldn't dare!

You should be careful, James. Trees can be just as powerful as engines.

Oh, please!

[looks at Gordon's fire] I don't know what's wrong. There must be gremlins about.

What are gremlins?

I heard that they're little green men who play tricks.

Can we find one?

Pah! Gremlins don't exist. They're just an excuse when things go wrong and no one knows why.

If firelighter says there are gremlins, there are.

Ha!

Bumpy ride on rotten rails. I'm glad it's over.

So am I.

Look who's here!

George had been found out by the Fat Controller and punished. He looked miserable.

Now we'll get some peace at last.

I want to get rolling again, but I've got to wait a whole week 'til I do.

And then you'll be just as rude as ever, eh, George?

I hope not, don't you?

My favorite station is Ffarquhar.

Mine's Maithwaite. Percy, what's yours?

[sleepily] The docks.

Ha! We can tell!

The docks are full of fish, not flowers.

[wide awake] All right, then, Arlesdale End.

That's my home!

That's why I like it. Especially when you're there and not here saying I'm silly! Good night.

Who's this dirty little engine? We want Thomas or Duck!

Put upon. Put upon. That's who I am!

We can see what's been put upon you.

Silence. Percy, you've done a good day's work. Now get a good night's rest.

Yes, Sir. Thank you, Sir.

[about the dam during the storm] Driver tells me it may be dangerous up there. Please be careful, Toby.

I'll try.
