Put Upon Percy

"Percy's been put upon, put upon, put upon, Percy's been put upon. Poor old Percy - tee hee hee hee hee!" "Percy is being put upon. I am, I am, I am!"

- Annie, Clarabel, and Percy

Put Upon Percy is the ninth episode of the fifth season.

Plot
Percy is exhausted, but the other engines are quite unsympathetic. One day, at the Coal Mine, some Troublesome Trucks get stuck on a piece of mining equipment and Percy is asked to give them a good shove to get them moving, but he pushes the trucks too hard. The runaway trucks disappear into the mine and crash into a support beam, destroying the mine shaft and the trucks. The impact of the collapse causes a rock slide near the mine. The mine is evacuated, but Percy is too late to get to safety and takes refuge underneath a canvas barrier just before it is buried by rubble. Thomas and Duck arrive to free him, and Percy is cleared out and sent to be repainted.
