'''Air date''': October 28th, 2005 (UK)
[[quoteright:280:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dayoff5_3775.jpg]]
The Fat Controller announces to his engines that a new Diesel engine called Dennis has arrived on Sodor and tells Thomas that he is being given a day off after his recent spell of busy work. But lazy Dennis soon has him working ragged anyway.

* BadBadActing: Dennis playing sick.
-->'''Dennis:''' Heelllp.....heelllp....
* DeepSouth: Dennis in the US dub.
* EasilyForgiven: After all of one slightly annoyed glare, Thomas remains sympathetic to Dennis despite admitting he was lying to shove his work onto him.
* InconsistentDub: The US narration switches between the terms 'truck' and 'freight car' on several occasions.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Dennis, as the narration explains:
-->"He didn't care about the tiles. He didn't care about Thomas. All he cared about was getting far away from his work."
* LaserGuidedKarma: After faking breaking down, Dennis gets into an accident and is genuinely damaged.
* LazyBum: Dennis.
* PulledFromYourDayOff: Thomas.
* TakingAdvantageOfGenerosity: Dennis constantly tries to exploit Thomas into helping him, to the point he is dissatisfied when he only assists him in doing his job rather than outright doing the whole workload himself.
