Go To

The forty-third episode of the first season of the 2007 revival series of The Magic Roundabout.

Tropes featured in the episode:

  • Crying Wolf: Inverted. Dougal, Dylan and Brian set out on their first emergency to help Mr. Grimsdale as they thought he was hurt, but it turns out that he was fixing the puncture of his cart and is less than pleased with them for wrecking his cart. They set out on the second emergency when they see smoke billowing from the window of Florence's house as they threw water through the window as they thought was a fire, but an angry Florence comes out with a drenched pie and gives them a massive telling off. They later saw the Magic Roundabout spinning out of control, but they believe it was another false alarm until it was proven to be a genuine emergency when Florence rushes to alert them.
  • Denied Food as Punishment: Florence refuses to let Dougal to eat the singed pie as she was furious with him, Dylan and Brian for throwing water through her window over the pie which they thought was a fire.
  • Door Slam of Rage: After Florence tells Dougal, Dylan and Brian off for throwing water through her open window and onto the singed pie, she goes back inside her house where she angrily slams the door.
  • Negated Moment of Awesome: Dougal, Dylan and Brian arrive to stop the Magic Roundabout from spinning out of control and they do so. It seems like that they were about to solve the emergency until they suddenly lost control and ended up spinning with the roundabout. Luckily, Florence calls for Zebedee to rescue them and to stop the roundabout.
  • What the Hell, Hero?:
    • Mr. Grimsdale isn't pleased with Dougal, Dylan and Brian when they accidentally wrecked his cart as they arrive on Train, thinking that he was hurt.
    • Florence is not very happy with Dougal, Dylan and Brian when they threw water through the open window and onto the pie, mistaking it for a fire.
