- Jack: [meeting Alfie, a small excavator] I'm Jack. I'm here to help.
- Alfie: More help means more dirt, more dirt means more fun. I'm Alfie.
- [while Jack and Alfie are at work, a dump truck named Max races by blowing dust and dirt all over Alfie]
- Alfie: MAX!
- Jack: So *that's* Max. Thomas was right. He IS trouble.
- Alfie: [Max races straight toward Jack] Look out, Jack!
- Narrator (UK & US): Max stopped just in time. Jack refused to move.
- Jack: Stop bullying!
- Max: Can't you take a joke?
- [Max races away]
- Narrator (UK & US): [last lines; after Jack had jumped in and got into an accident] Miss Jenny was pleased Jack wasn't hurt, but she was disappointed.
- Miss Jenny: Safety first means you don't jump in where you don't belong.
- Jack: [sadly] I'm sorry, Miss Jenny.
- Miss Jenny: Maybe you're not ready for the Pack. We'll see if you can do better tomorrow.
- Isobella: [seeing Jack looking sad] You're a good front loader.
- Alfie: And a good friend.
- Thomas: Being a good friend is important.
- Narrator (UK & US): That made Jack feel just a bit better.
- [first lines]
- Narrator (UK & US): It was a tingly spring morning on the Island of Sodor. Thomas was excited. Sir Topham Hatt had sent him to collect a special from Jenny Packard.
- Miss Jenny: [as Thomas arrives] Spot on, Thomas! You'd make a mother proud!
- Thomas: Thanks, Miss Jenny.
- [looks at Jack the Front Loader on a flatbed]
- Thomas: Is this my special?
- Miss Jenny: *Very* special.
- Jack: I'm Jack the Front Loader. I can load and unload and carry lots of things.
- Thomas: I can haul and shunt.
- Miss Jenny: [laughs] And I can get you two chatterboxes off to the quarry.
- Jack: [as he pulls up to Isobella the steam lorry and Kelly the Crane] I'm Jack.
- Isobella: [angered] Mind my paint!
- Kelly: [scolding] Isobella!
- Isobella: [to Jack] Sorry. Welcome to Pack
- Kelly: And if you want to help...
- Isobella: See the foreman. He's in charge.
- Thomas: [as he takes Jack to the quarry] Is this your first job at the quarry?
- Jack: It's my first job on the Island!
- Thomas: Look out for Max. He's trouble.
