Thomas sees some children crowded around a snowman, unaware that it's actually a giant balloon. When the balloon's guide ropes get caught on his buffers, it keeps following him around the island, and he can't figure out why.


Tropes in this episode:

  • An Aesop: If something cannot stop following you, it's important to ask someone why.
  • Failed a Spot Check: Thomas completely fails to realise that the "snowman" is really a giant balloon, and it's following him because its ropes are tied to his buffers. It takes him until the end of the episode to realise.
  • Reasonable Authority Figure: The Fat Controller, who calmly explains to Thomas why the snowman keeps following him.
  • Rule of Three: James, Farmer McColl, and Emily all see Thomas with the snowman balloon and try to ask him why it's tied to his buffers.

Alternative Title(s): Thomas The Tank Engine S 10 E 20 Thomas Frosty Friend
