Air Date:

Plot:
Thomas ignored Emily about wearing his snowplough. However, Thomas and Emily both felt foolish when the Fat Controller was scolding at them for not listening to him.
PRO:
- Moral: Always listen to everyone
CON:
- Emily's persona suppose to be nice and kind not bossy and mean.
- Since when branch lines have two lines?
The episode is OK in my opinion. It has a good moral that kids can learn from about listening to everyone. But Emily, her persona was messed up. Since her introduction she was all nice and kind and now they made her in a bossy engine. I know it was suppose to be for the episode, but they could've gone with other engines like Gordon or Henry? Emily is just not the engine for this episode. Plus visually, when are branch lines double tracked? I went to many preserved lines here in Aus and in the UK and they only have one track. The only preserved railway line that I know that has two tracks is the 'Great Central Railway', but that was one of the mainline companies.
So yes, I find the episode OK, but they could've chosen a character that is right with the persona.
Rating: 3/5
