- “Thomas! What is going on?! The Mayor is waiting for the Jobi wood! Edward is swinging on a bridge, logs are jumping like frogs and..."
"...my shiny red coat is ruined!” - ― The Fat Controller and James
Jumping Jobi Wood! is the fifteenth episode of the fourteenth series.
Plot
The Fat Controller informs the engines that the Mayor of Sodor wants some Jobi wood to build a summerhouse, for which Thomas asks if he can go to Misty Island to collect the Jobi wood. Bash, Dash and Ferdinand also want to go with Thomas as the cranes have been acting crazy lately, though The Fat Controller sends Thomas and Edward to Misty Island and tells Bash, Dash and Ferdinand to stay on Sodor and learn the ways of his railway.
Thomas and Edward soon set off through the Misty Island Tunnel and arrive at the Misty Island Logging Station, where Edward is intrigued by what he sees. Thomas tells Edward that when he first arrived on Misty Island, he found it strange too, but he now thinks that it is special. He then takes Edward on a tour of the island and shows him the zip-line bridge, the noisy saw mill, the logging pond and last but not least - Ol' Wheezy and Hee-Haw the log loaders. Next, Thomas and Edward chuff to the Shake Shake Bridge. They need to cross it in order to collect the Jobi logs. Edward does not like the bridge and when he has almost reached the other side, he stops and will not move.
Then, Bash, Dash and Ferdinand arrive and ask if Thomas needs help. Thomas refuses their help and insists that they can manage on their own. So, Thomas collects a flatbed and goes to see Ol' Wheezy. But Ol' Wheezy is misbehaving, as usual, and tosses the logs all over - some even hit poor Edward! The logging locos return and see the chaos going on and offer to help. Thomas refuses their help again and goes to see Hee-Haw. But Hee-Haw had run out of oil and thick black smoke is bellowing from him all over James and the Fat Controller! The Fat Controller is very cross, but Thomas knows who can help.
He races back to Sodor and collects Bash, Dash and Ferdinand, who are more than happy to help. First, they manage to get a surprised Edward off the Shake Shake Bridge and then they showed Edward and Thomas how to catch the Jobi logs as Ol' Wheezy throws them, and finally, Dash's driver fills Hee-Haw with oil. At last, all the Jobi logs are loaded and the five friends go back to Sodor. The Fat Controller is delighted and calls them all really useful engines.
