Revision as of 19:10, 6 August 2020
- “Well, they've mended me tubes, but they didn't even look at me brakes! Me gauges! Me squeaky wheels..."
"All in good time, Henry.” - ― Henry and Emily
What's the Matter with Henry? is the sixth episode of the seventh series.
Plot
It is the end of another busy day and all of the engines are happy, except Henry who is feeling ill once again. He complains that his boiler is grumbling. Thomas teases him about it, but Henry crossly moans that Thomas does not care and leaves. Emily notices a puddle of water where Henry was standing.
The next morning, the Fat Controller tells Henry, Thomas and Percy to collect coal trucks and take them to the docks. The two tank engines puff away quickly, but Henry is still feeling ill. Despite this, really useful engines do not complain, so this time, he tries to move anyway, worried that the Fat Controller will not care if he is ill again.
Henry is still leaving a trail of water behind him as he puffs along, which worries Emily even more. Percy and Thomas continue to tease Henry, thinking he is just being lazy. When they arrive at the coaling plant before Henry, they make a plan. Thomas lies to the manager that Henry wants to take more trucks, with Percy adding that Henry is bigger. The manager agrees. Meanwhile Emily tells the Fat Controller about Henry's problem and he sends her to find him.
Henry arrives at the coaling plant and is horrified to see a long line of trucks left by Thomas and Percy. But he still has to take them, so he sets off and pulls with all his might. However, the trucks prove too much and Henry grinds to a halt in the middle of the line. Emily pulls up alongside and sees that Henry needs help. So she changes tracks and couples up to Henry while his fireman uncouples the trucks. They set off towards the docks.
When they arrive, the Fat Controller praises Emily and commends Henry on his bravery in taking the trucks despite being ill. Thomas and Percy are ashamed and apologize to Henry for not believing he was sick. The Fat Controller sends Thomas and Percy to pick up Henry's train.
Soon Henry is mended and back at work, but complains and claims that the workmen did not look at his brakes, gauges, or wheels. Emily assures him that he is back in good condition again but Henry is still unhappy.

Trivia
- Going by production order, this is the fifth episode of the seventh series.
- Mirrored stock footage from Henry and the Elephant is used.
- Henry's front truck does not have a face in the episode, but if inspected closely, the face area is hidden by a piece of the truck's body duplicated and placed over it. It can be more noticeable when Emily pulls Henry away from the train. It is unknown why this was done.
- When released on home video in the UK for the first time, the version used is the UK narration with the new music. The UK narration paired with the original music of the episode did not come out on home video until The Complete Series 7 was released in 2008. This also applies to Rheneas and the Roller Coaster.
- In the Japanese version, the coaling plant manager gains lines.
- When Emily helps Henry, the original music uses Henry's theme, whereas the new music uses Emily's theme.
- When Henry leaves the coaling plant, a grey building and large brown building from TUGS can be seen on either side of him.
- This is the first episode in the series in which the title has a question mark.
