Me: Today's May 12, which means it's Thomas the Tank Engine's Birthday :)

Bakuhoe: Who the hell is Thomas

Jr: You don't know

Me: How many don't know Thomas and Friends/Railway Series

Only a handful (Plus the kids and the Old Man that complimented Deku in episode 1) knew what Thomas and Friends/Railway Series is.

Old Man: I haven't seen that series in a long time, well except the "Reboot"

Me: Mind explain what Thomas is, Olley

Olley: Well, he is a blue E2 Tank Engine-

Dewey: Blue like Dewey/Turbo

Mahoro: (Annoyed) We can see that

Olley: -WHO lives in a world where lots of vehicles are alive

Mei: VEHICLES THAT ARE ALIVE

Jr: Don't get any ideas if you don't want to kill of your human race faster, anyways we will be listening to a song from Thomas and Friends/Railway Series

Louie: Another song? I won't complain this time since it is a childhood classic

Suddenly, everyone heard a whistle.

Thomas: Hang on, don't start without me

What came in from the doors of the theater was a blue cheeky E2 Tank Engine with six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boilder, and a short stumpy dome.

Saitama: How did you get in here

Thomas: The rails outside, also since it's my birthday I would like to celebrate it with my fans

Me: That's me, and you folks too (Points at you)

Deku: A-are you Thomas

Thomas: Yes and why does your hair look like broccoli and why does your hair look spikey

Deku: I-it's how it is

Bakuhoe: WHAT THE HELL DID YOU SAY TO ME PUFF BALL

Thomas: Oh, you remind me of Devious Diesel and Diesel 10 when they used to be devious and evil

Melissa: How are "Engines" like you alive

Yamikumo: Yeah, and when did it first start

Thomas: No one knows how but it did start when steam trains began to exist

Bakuhoe: DON'T IGNORE ME PUFF BALL

Della: Can you start before he burst Thomas' safety valve

Jr: I will

The video starts with clips from both the book, series, and movie as the children sang the song (Mashup Version).

Then me, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Olley, Kota, Eri, Mahoro, and Katsuma then began to sing along with the song.

[Verse 1]
He's a really useful engine, you know
All the other engines they'll tell you so
He huffs and puffs and whistles, rushing to and fro
He's the really useful engine we adore

Nana: What are you even useful for Mr. Blue Tank Engine

Thomas: You already remind me of Nia, but I'm really useful for helping my friends out, shunting and pulling cars/trucks and coaches, and even went around the world, even though I kinda did that on purpose and became the second because Flying Scotsman, Gordon's "Big Brother," already went around the world years before me

[Chorus]
He's the one, he's the one
He's the really useful engine that we adore
He's the one, he's the number one
Thomas the Tank Engine

Dark Shadow: What's the "Number 1" even for

Thomas: It's what I got when I first went to the Island of Sodor

Yamikumo: So it's not a ranking system?

Thomas: Kinda

[Verse 2]
He's a really useful engine, you know
'Cause the Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt, he told him so

Mineta: Wait, which one is he called, Sir Topham Hatt or the Fat Controller?

Thomas: We say it differently because the US Version only calls him Sir Topham Hatt while the UK Version calls him the Fat Controller

Jr: I still find it weird to have

Now he's got a branch line to call his very own
He's the really useful engine we adore

[Chorus]
He's the one, he's the one
He's the really useful engine that we adore
He's the one, he's the number one
Thomas the Tank Engine

[Bridge]
Little blue train
He's always there whenever you need a hand
If you need help with a situation
Who comes into mind?

Me, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Olley, Kota, Eri, Mahoro, and Katsuma: THE NUMBER ONE TANK ENGINE

[Chorus]
He's the one, he's the one
He's the really useful engine that we adore
He's the one, he's the number one
Thomas the Tank Engine

[Verse 3]
He's a really useful engine, you know
Maybe little, but he's never slow
Stand back in amazement, just you watch him go
He's the really useful engine we adore

[Chorus]
He's the one, he's the one
He's the really useful engine that we adore
He's the one, he's the number one
Thomas the Tank Engine

[Outro]
Me/Chorus: He's the really useful engine we adore

The video ends.

Everyone starts clapping at then end of the song.

Thomas: Bust my buffers, that was amazing

Eri: Um, Mr. Thomas, when were you uhh "Built"

Thomas: You can just call me Thomas, Eri, and I was made in May 12, 1945 by the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway or LBSC for short

Huey: So that makes you 86 years old now in 2021

Katsuma: He's what?!

Kota: Wow, you're old for a steam train, and still somehow young?

Thomas: I may be an old and outdated machinery, but that doesn't stop a good old steam engine from being really useful to the railway

Me: Happy birthday, my childhood icon

I then went to hug Thomas against his boiler as I shed tears out of my eyes. Thomas couldn't help but smile and blow his whistle for old times' sake.

Thomas: Never overlook a little engine
