SC Shorts: The Schemer Games (12+)

Twelve engines are selected to compete in a televised battle royale to the death hosted by a mysterious man. Can Thomas and his friends escape their cruel fate, or will it all end in cinders and ashes? How the hell should I know, find out yourselves.
Fuck shit this video ain't for kids I bloody hope this works dammit.

[@sammyclark4992]

Surprise! I lied, I finished filming on Monday, so I decided to post it today as a sort of Thanksgiving episode despite the fact that there are zero references to Thanksgiving in the actual episode. Wouldn't be the first time I do something like this. Hope ya'll enjoy!

[@immortalempiresking9168]

HEY! HEY! HEY! GUESS WHO'S BACK! BACK AGAIN! SAMMY'S BACK! IMA TELL A FRIEND! (See what I did there? I made an Eminem reference😁) Anyways, that was another great episode, and especially now that we are back to the Oliver arc. At first, I thought Jock and Stepney would be voicing in this episode (especially because 4 of the 6 minions of Oliver have already voiced in the first 3 episodes of the Oliver/S.N.U.F.F arc), but THIS?! This is even better than I thought. I loved how Schemer plays in this episode. I also liked how The Hunger Games goes into this, especially because of the title of this episode. Have you ever watched or read the Hunger Games franchise? I am watching Ballad Of Songbirds and Snakes today at Regal with my mom. That book and movie adaptation is a prequel to the whole franchise. But, however, I am 🤔suspicious of this arc because I am seeing a pattern. In There Will Be Coal, Thomas and Emily were caught in one of Oliver's schemes, and now, Thomas and Emily were caught in Schemer's plan. In the next episode, what if Thomas and Emily were caught in Stepney's manipulation? Because really, in There Will Be Coal and The Schemer Games, Thomas and Emily were the only ones that were caught in one of Oliver's minions' traps. I wished it would be Thomas and Percy or, heck, even James caught in the traps of Schemer. Now, I have a few speculations and questions I have now after watching and viewing (mostly the important scenes that relate to the arc). So, here they are: 1. I think Stepney will play a big role next episode. He will either finally capture Thomas or worse, have Oliver join along him and the next episode will make Thomas finally see S.N.U.F.F. and Oliver's true evil side, similar to what happened to Scrooge McDuck in Ducktales S3 episode "Let's Get Dangerous!". 2. Jock will FINALLY voice again in next episode or in the finale (whatever the case might be for you) because I really need to see him talking to Oliver. 3. What exactly is S.N.U.F.F.? And what exactly does it stand for? 4. I predict that the finale will be named "The Last Adventure", based on the same title from the Ducktales series finale. 5. Who is Schemer? And is he fanmade or from a franchise? 6. What were those 2 clones of Oliver at the end of "Saving Sodor, Again"? Will they be voiced next episode or in the finale? 7. Since that this episode marks half 2 of SC Shorts Season 2, the season will be 16 episodes long. 8. Bear/D7101 is a good guy in all of this. That's all I have to say.

[@sammyclark4992]

Thanks a lot for the comments on this episode. I'll only answer a few questions that you asked so I don't give too much away. 1. I have secretly never watched or read the Hunger Games before; in fact, this episode is actually a parody of a parody of the Hunger Games. I'm gonna reveal that to everyone at some point on my community though lol so you're lucky by knowing that fact first. 2. I am gonna reveal what S.N.U.F.F stands for soon maybe even before I make an episode saying it, but I will say that the words "Sodor's" and "For" are in the title. 3. Schemer isn't a fan made character, in fact he is connected to the Thomas franchise in some kind of way but isn't technically a Thomas character. He's a main character on the show Shining Time Station which was the basis to bringing Thomas to the US. He isn't like evil like how he is here in the SC Shorts but he definitely lives up to his name and laughter. He's a real funny guy in all honesty. 4. The Oliver clones are basically like the "clones" that Thomas, Duck and Diesel have who are in reality are just Olivers from different universes. They will speak, just not right now. 5. I know this didn't count as a question of yours but a prediction but I'd still like to make a comment about it. The final episode won't be called The Last Adventure; I don't know what it'll be called but I wouldn't want it to be called that because admittedly the finale is gonna have like a few references to both that and Tobias and the Half Pariah but definitely not to the point where about half of the entire is based off of those two. I would like it to be as original as possible if I can try. But once again, thanks a lot for what you said.
