- [Duck and Percy have left Thomas at the smelters and are idling at the station before going to watch the fireworks]
- Duck: It was wrong of Thomas to tease you, Percy.
- Percy: It's okay. He was only playing. I hope he hurries up. I wouldn't want him to be late for the fireworks.
- [Thomas, after having been spooked, rockets by the two engines and out of sight]
- Thomas: He's after meeeeee!
- Duck: [to Percy] I don't think he'll be late.
