History Awesome / TheodoreTugboat

* In "Theodore Tells a Lie", if there was ever a fire emergency in the Big Harbor, Constance and the tugs are well-prepared to evacuate the ships and barges should it be necessary if Foduck was unable to contain the blaze with his own equipment. That takes a lot of skill and planning, even with a perfect safety record. Always better to be prepared should the worst-case scenario happen.

* In "All Quiet in the Big Harbor," almost everyone in the harbor chastises Foduck for being too loud during his nightshift. Northumberland finally gets through to Foduck in a smart and considerate way: knowing how formal and work-centric the tug can be, Northumberland gives his advice as though it were a mission briefing.

* In "All Quiet in the Big Harbor," after almost everyone in the harbor chastises Foduck for being too loud during his nightshift, Northumberland finally gets through to him. He does so by speaking in a way Foduck would understand: by wording his advice like a mission briefing.

* The very existence of "Hanks Funny Feeling" is an awesome moment for the show's creators. It tackles its subject matter in a way few of its contemporaries dared to try: stranger danger, ''but with a concrete stranger as the antagonist''. Between the subtle writing, Denny Doherty's acting, and how effectively the message is delivered, it's little wonder how this episode ranks among the best for many fans.

** George sticks up for Theodore against Oliver the moment he sees something is wrong. It's one of the most defining moments of George's good side:

** A smaller moment, but while Theodore hides beneath him, Owan offers to talk to Oliver about his behavior. Earlier in the episode, Owan was acting ''very'' reserved when he heard Oliver would be arriving. It's implied he too was bullied by the tugboat in the past. That he's willing to overlook these feelings to advocate for a troubled friend speaks hugely of his character.

Earlier in the episode, Owan was acting ''very'' reserved when he heard Oliver would be arriving, almost like he was browbeaten into compliance by the tugboat.

* George sticking up for Theodore against Oliver in "Theodore and the Boat Bully" was one of the nicest things he ever did for anyone else.

* Hank (politely) telling off the Pilot Boats for not listening to the tugs when they have questions, something that endangers Theodore and a container ship.
** Also, Theodore subbing for the marking buoy he was meant to replace and saving the ship from a jagged rock.
* Theodore's idea to rescue the Queen Stephanie when she gets wedged under Benjamin Bridge. Between Denny Doherty's excellent voice acting and the awesome music, it's extremely exciting when they finally pop the ship free.
* In "Theodore and the Unsafe Ship," Theodore finally subdues Cabot by tricking him with reverse psychology. Knowing the cargo ship thinks he's smarter than the young tug, Theodore warns Cabot not to go to the harbor's Sandy Beach. Expectedly, Cabot does so anyway and ends up beaching himself, putting him in the perfect position for Theodore to finally tow him to a dock.

--> "He said he doesn't like that! Leave my friend ''alone.'' We don't need you ''at all'' in this harbor; I can pull Owan as well as you can. Why don't you just go home?"
