'''Air date''': September 7, 2018

Rebecca is so impressed by Belle putting out a fire with her water cannons, Marion's steam shovel and Harvey's crane that her enthusiasm makes her friends feel very good about themselves. But she can't help wondering if she has any special qualities too?

!! Tropes:
* ADayInTheLimelight: For Rebecca.
* AllLovingHero: Rebecca turns out to be one in this episode, seeing the good in everyone and complimenting them on their special features.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Marion, Belle, and Harvey are this to Rebecca. Their special features make Rebecca doubt her self-worth.
* AnAesop: Everyone is special in their own way.
* BreakTheCutie: Rebecca has a moment of this after seeing Harvey, Belle and Marion's special features, causing her to become worried that she isn't special.
* CallBack: In the AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle segment, Thomas recalls the events of "Gone Fishing".
* CoolShades: Rebecca wears sunglasses in her fantasy sequence.
* DramaticSpotlight: Rebecca gets one when playing "Guess What's In My Shovel" with Marion.
* IdiosyncraticWipes: Rebecca's wheels spinning are used for scene transitions in this episode.
* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Rebecca is worried that she doesn't stand out due to not having a special feature like Harvey's crane, Belle's water cannons, or Marion's digger. In her fantasy sequence, Rebecca has all these fitted on her, along with Diesel 10's claw. Eventually, she learns that making others feel good about themselves is her special feature.
* ImagineSpot: Rebecca has one in which she is fitted with Harvey's crane, Belle's water cannons, Marion's diggers, and Diesel 10's claw. She also wears sunglasses, and she stomps about Tidmouth Sheds while Marion, Belle, Harvey, Duck, Percy, and Emily have perverted looks on their faces.
* LiteralMinded: After Duck comments that the Steamworks "can do anything", Rebecca thinks that she is actually able to be fitted with the crane, water cannons, and diggers. Victor later tells her that they can't do that.
* LuminescentBlush: [[ShipTease Percy]] and [[LesYay Belle]] both blush after Rebecca compliments them.
* MechaExpansionPack: Rebecca's fantasy sequence depicts her fitted with Belle's water cannons, Harvey's crane, Marion's digger and Diesel 10's claw. This is also incorporated into her forthcoming Trackmaster model, which is also her first official release in the toy lines.
* NiceGirl: Rebecca, who compliments everyone on their special qualities. In fact, this turns out to be Rebecca's special quality in the end.
* RuleOfCool: This is why Rebecca wears sunglasses in her fantasy sequence, despite not having ears.
* ShoutOut: Marion's game of "Guess What's In My Shovel" may be a reference to game-shows. Complete with a spotlight being on Rebecca.
* TakeThat: In this episode, Duck and Emily are shown hanging out. This may or may not be a jab at fans who think that the two would hate each other, due to Emily replacing Duck in the Steam Team back when the concept was created in 2004.
* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Basically, what Rebecca learns in the episode.
