Summary

Thomas hoped to see his new friend Jack when he got to the old bridge near the quarry, he knew the Pack was working there. Jack was loading Max with Alfie, when they were done the workmen told Oliver to move some topsoil, Jack was about to do it, but remembered he was told to not jump in were he didn't belong.

After, Ned was going under the bridge, but he didn't lower his crane arm, so he knocked loose some important key stones, then the bridge started to crumble. Thomas was just coming by so Jack raced under and held up the bridge, Thomas backed up and Jack let go, the bridge pice tumbled down.

Back at the yard Ms. Jenny was pleased with Jack, she said he could stay in the Pack. The rest of the team cheered, and Thomas was happy.

My Own Thoughts

How could Jack be strong enough to hold Thomas up? Nothing else to say about this episode.
