Plot
When Thomas and Percy's plan to surprise Diesel goes awry, the two friends still manage to cheer up Diesel... just not in the way they expected.
MY VIEWS
I don't really get the outcome of this episode. The title stated that the joke was on Thomas, which means the outcome of the joke doesn't just make the person of the joke feel silly but also the creator of the joke silly as well. Kind of like how Squidward made an April Fools joke towards Spongebob but it was more mean spritied from the former's end. But the outcome of this episode shows Diesel being happy of the joke despite making making late deliveries earlier. To make the episode have more sense perhaps have Diesel playing a trick on Thomas, Thomas tries to get back at him but the joke he made went too far and tries to put things right by having the joke going onto him. The episode that we have now feels like it had bad execution. Also I know Percy's jokes about 'Chew Chew Trains' are suppose to be childish but they are so bad.
