Hello, arena rewars are working?

Ok this makes so much scene

Did you actually love watching Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie

l’m so excited to see this video. Keep up the good work MutePenguin1155!👍^^_

I got every question right except How many coaches does Thomas pull on his branch line? 2:06 mimics maybe I wasn't the only viewer to make this mistake, but I still think he normally pulls two.

I agree the exact same opinion you have

If anyone comments that the episode is confusing because The special coach doesn't appear again after This episode. If thats the case then the episode daisy is confusing as The the scene were we find out that thomas pulls a milk van on his branchline, after the daisy arc. THAT IS IT its never seen again. The same goes for many things in the TV series and The Railway seires. If you say an episode is confusing do to something only being seen once. Your basically saying that for every episode that has something or someone who only appears in that paticular episode

The missing coach is probably easier to understand once I read The Railway Series story. I actually bought the complete collection and it arrived today! I’m excited to start reading it so I can actually understand videos easier😂

"This episode is too confusing" was something I didn't understand from the get-go outside one of the showrunners saying it. Maybe I'm an outlier but I think changing tenders wouldn't have been complicated for child me to understand. I had toys, I could change the tenders on them and seeing it happen in the show would have me go "Oh they do it there!" The arc needed the Missing Coach to explain the Fat Controller is suspicious of the two engines and as critical of Donald as he is in Break Van, no, having "Oh two engines arrived and I'm suspicious which one it is" vaguely explained does not help, without having the TFC's first confrontation of "Which one is the one I ordered" hurt the targeted audience's chance to empathize or sympathize to Donald & Douglas as characters in what they do, even if most of what happens lacks action.

You have alerted the horde.

Agreed. They’re the most dangerous ones on Sodor (not the most evil tho. Diesel 10 attempted mass steam engine genocide).

ngl he's right the engines are in constant danger when pulling these trucks because they live for chaos and they try to kill the engines every 20 seconds lol

There are sad parts about being a truck. (largely by real life external factors) most trucks are own by private companies (like s.c.ruffy) who barely maintains them due the need of MONEY, to a point of consistant issues. (old coupling snaps, brakes slip on, hot axle box etc) The fat controller can't hold them accountable because he doesn't own them. He also can't give them the treatment he gives to his engines and coaches. As a result trucks are view down as dirty work, while coaches have the status of hauling passengers. Likely why trucks are so troublesome because they feel hurt knowing they are the lowest railway food chain with constant disgust by others. their only way to express their pride and joy is to try to beat the system or goofing around. The worse part is that most of these trucks would have been dead by the late 60s due to them being such a nuisance that BR just flat out burns them if deem unserviceable.

The fact Britt canceled an episode because it was "confusing" despite later on creating Tragic Failroad is just stupid

I honestly agree that Britt should’ve kept this episode, confusing or not. It’s especially odd that Britt thought it was confusing, given some of her original material could be confusing as well, but I’m not going to judge her. I love her regardless.

“Combineded” - not a word.

Confusing or not, I’d have preferred seeing a more proper introduction to Donald and Douglas instead rushing them in a single monologue.

Another proof of why Britt Allcroft also misunderstood Thomas

Love That Thumbnail Shot!😊

How did i watch this and get more confused

To be honest, my issue isn’t that it’s confusing but rather it’s pointless, because the missing coach wasn’t brought up again nor did in the second story said that it was found later on (which I kinda wish it was). Another issue with the concept was no context of why the coach was even for Thomas, something I wish we got an episode on so at least it’s justified.

Personally about the missing coach honestly it's not that confusing to me it's just a couple of plots just put into one and I can get that there's no action but I really like the missing coach

You showed me the moral of The Missing Coach, which I had never thought about until this video. Thank you for that. The real confusing part of The Missing Coach is the actual coach itself and why it exists. We never see this coach again after Twin Engines, so what was the point of it?

When the concept of panic is explained with this story, it makes so much more sense! Like outsiders would think it’s a really silly idea, but when you get insight on the twins it makes sense, like if they said: ”We didn’t know what we were thinking, we were so worried we thought the worst of the situation, an apology felt like it would just get us into more trouble”

When i first heared "the missing coach" i thought something was wrong but how you sayed it was perfect i didnt get it but how you sayed it i finaly understand

It was probably done because Alcroft wanted more Thomas stories. As she said, "I love having the number 1 engine." Which caused a rift between her and the author.

Thomas and Friends honestly missed an opportunity to have the Missing Coach (and maybe other cancelled episodes) during the CGI series

Personally I think they should have kept this story in the TV series, especially since they were at the last hurdle in getting it completed. Alcroft's decision to cancel because the story lacked action to keep children entertained disregards the important takeaway lessons that children can learn for the real world. For example, The Deputation shows the engines challenging The Fat Controller's authority by putting forward an argument to not send away Donald and Douglas in a civil and respectful manner. The engines don't all gang up on TFC. I do think moral learning points are important in children's stories rather than just creating action packed things for no good reason. What do children learn from stories about runaways or derailments? I hope the T&F head honchos have the episode archived somewhere and have not disposed of it. It would be a good release for the 40th anniversary of the TV series. That's just my opinion anyway. I very much doubt it would happen though.

The three lions never forget him

The only really confusing part about The Missing Coach to me is probably the fact that Thomas suddenly has this special coach to begin with, and that it's coupled to Gordon's express first before being shunted to Thomas's train with people still inside. I mean, it makes more sense if you think about it, but I can easily see why it might come off confusing to children.

"Daisy has no action" 😂

Nice I Also Unlocked The Cake 🎂 Race Today!

I think the honest problem with what the finalized episode adaption was going to be ended up being potentially “confusing” for children is just the simple fact that unfortunately, the two stories “Hullo, Twins!” and “The Missing Coach” were both gonna be crammed together in one big 4:30 episode. So many details had to be stripped and removed and may not translate well on the TV screen. I do overall think with this in mind, there was a lot of poor planning with this episode story adaption, and alas wasn’t taken into consideration until halfway being filmed. At that, I feel the episode should have been finished regardless because that’s a lot of time and filming completely wasted there, and the opening to “Break Van” with that rushed opening monologue was just terrible.

Who’s here after Spain 2 England 1

It's ok bro, you played very good. The comeback when you scored the first goal was incredible, and damn i am sorry it didn't last for long... Anyway, leave that to the past, good luck on the Euro 2028! 🙃
