But James insists that he is still a splendid engine. Thomas teases him by telling him that now he is the one who needs a wash. He warns James to watch out and blows hard. Then Percy arrives and moans that his whistle is clogged with dust again. When James returns to the sheds, Gordon is surprised to see him still clean. Soon the mess is cleared up and James puffs on his way, finally reaching the workshop clean and shiny. However, James stops in time and manages to stay clean. The Queen of Sodor crashes through the pipe, sending sludge all over the boat and the tracks. He does not notice a pipe stretched across in front of the boat. But James is still trying not to get dirty. He realises that Gordon conned him and James is determined to prove that a shiny engine never gets dirty. James arrives at the canal and is furious to see that the Queen of Sodor is a dirty old boat. James loudly announces that he will collect her and sets off happily.
He loudly asks the Fat Controller if collecting the Queen of Sodor is important, which it is. James pulls into the sheds, which gives Gordon an idea. Later at Tidmouth Sheds, the Fat Controller asks for a volunteer to collect the Queen of Sodor, an old barge which needs to go to the workshop. James collects the mayor and puffs on his way. But James laughs and tells him that he needs a wash first.
James brags that he is collecting the mayor today, which Gordon thinks should be his job. But he accidentally blows mud all over Gordon, leaving the blue express engine very cross. His whistle is clogged with quarry dust, so he blows hard to clean it. One day, he is at the washdown when Percy arrives. James is very proud of his bright red paint and thinks his work is very important.
