Plot
When Diesel hides from the other engines, his plans backfire 
and it's him that gets a surprise

I don't really have much to say for this episode other than it was nice but not great. It's not my favourite from Davey Moore. I did find it funny with Diesel's parts and I do like the dynamic duo of Nia and Paxton which is something I love from Davey Moore, pairing up two characters with different personalities together. Heck I like that Nia has a bit of cheekiness towards her, not bad for a character who has been regarded by many as a bland, one dimensional character. The fantasy sequence however, as stated in 'Diesel Do Right' makes much more sense in this episode compare to the former.  Diesel was thinking how the other engines would miss him since he was hiding away. It was not a parody of him doing the theme song or something. The fantasy sequence here is a bit ridiculous but it is what is. But the story in the end was just nice and simple but not favourite of mine.
