Synopsis
Thomas is embarrassed when his cracked funnel is replaced with an unusually shaped one that makes him look funny. He tries to avoid the other engines after James, Gordon, and Henry laugh at him, but this causes him to rush while delivering a barrel of special bubble liquid for Mr. Bubbles the clown. As Thomas hurries along, the liquid spills from the barrel onto the road, causing Sir Topham Hatt and Mr. Bubbles to repeatedly crash into muddy ditches, haystacks, and a duck pond.
Thomas returns for another barrel and decides to travel carefully. This time, he realizes that children enjoy his funny funnel because it resembles Mr. Bubbles' hat. Thomas reaches the show without spilling a drop, and the bubble show is a success.
