Awesome / Tobias and the Half-Pariah

While the last videos Tines Sensahthe were all Darker and Edgier and even gave Nightmare Fuel, this one just gives a powerful message.

• About everything Henrietta does. Toby enters his Heroic BSoD about his downside of life, and then:
  Henrietta: Toby, no excuses.
• Toby watches idly by as Thomas tries to get some trucks out from a siding. Thomas lets Toby have a go at it, and Toby pulls it with ease.
  • And then he pulled The Line.
• Toby's first encounter with Gordon.
  Gordon: I've won many awards and broken many speed records, mind you.
  Tobias: Violated the speeding restrictions too, I reckon?
• Toby is told to help Gordon when he breaks down. Gordon says that he doubts Toby can go as fast as him or pull the express, but Toby couples up to Gordon, and RACES off.
  Tobias: It was like nothing I'd ever done before! It was exhilarating, powerful, unstoppable.
  • Not to mention Gordon's shock.
• Gordon is jealous of Toby, so he decides to jam the points so Toby goes onto the branchline. Toby and Percy nearly collide, but what happens isn't the same in the show. Toby's eyes glow, and he derails and saves all of the passengers, all from the work of a steam tram!
• The Big What the Hell, Hero? Moment for Gordon at the sheds. All of the engines are calling him out on his trick. He begs for forgiveness, and while this is a Tear Jerker, Gordon gets what he deserves.
• When Atherton chases Toby and Henrietta. Using what had happened when he was switched onto the Branchline, Atherton nearly closes in on Toby, only for him to ditch him at the last minute.
• The talk Montague and Oliver have with each other.
  Oliver: If I may say so, it ought to be you seeking Tobias right now.
  Montague: What?!
  Oliver: As the leader of this operation, you should be seeking Tobias yourself. (beat) Oh, but that's right. What would a tank engine do when he finds the most powerful engine in the World?
  Montague: I didn't ask for your opinion!
  Oliver: Too bad. I gave it to you anyway.
• Mavis's arrival. She talks to Toby about him coming with her to meet the Big Bad Superior, and Toby runs off. Mavis does nothing, and Toby can't get out due to the long line of trucks.
  Mavis: I thought you'd pull a trick like that. I always prepare.
• The entirety of Toby vs Mavis. They use trucks against each other and bash into each other. This is the first time Toby is fighting someone with strength equal to his own. Toby then ends it with a large struggle, ending with him slamming Mavis with the trucks into the back of a shed.
• Why is Toby cooler in this film? He and Montague were caught in an accident that brought them to a Near-Death Experience, and Toby was made the hybrid of steam and diesel.
  • The fact that Montague gained a large amount of diesel followers, even after he was put into a steam engine body.
• Gordon's Heel–Face Turn when he frees Toby and Henrietta after giving him a big What the Hell, Hero? and This Loser Is You Speech. They escape, but Diesel and Atherton spot them. Gordon gives Toby enough time to shunt trucks out of their way when they reach a yard, and Gordon slams right into Diesel. He uses up every bit of his strength to hold him at bay until Atherton bumps into Diesel and Gordon. Gordon performs a big Taking You with Me moment as he and Diesel perish in the shed.
• Toby enters another Heroic BSoD. He goes on and on, but Henrietta pulls it off with a Get A Hold Of Yourself Man moment by yelling "No, Toby! No excuses tonight!" Toby comes to his senses.
• Toby's Rousing Speech to the engines to help him fight Montague after Gordon made his Heroic Sacrifice to save him.
  Thomas: Gordon's... Dead?
  Toby: Yes. He died, he died for me, he died for all of you! He died, because he thought we were all worth it! Until now, I didn't trust any of you. Gordon changed my mind. He and I... weren't that different. We both wanted to be appreciated for something real. And now he is. I'd be dead without him. (beat) I'd be dead without all of you. Sodor has saved my life over and over, (beat) and now it's my turn to save your life. Another engine is coming after me. He's coming here, to Sodor, and he's bringing an army. We have to be ready. We may have to fight. And I need your help. I can't do this alone. And if you won't do it for me, then do it for Gordon! Appreciate who he was, what he did! And please, please, help me.
  • Every engine whistles for Toby, all rolling up, much to Toby's surprise, including the Nightmare Fuel Alfred. Toby is very much surprised.
• Toby leading his army of steam engines to fight against Montague and his diesels, as well as Oliver. Toby is giving them all orders like a commander, and everyone rolls in, including Bill, Ben, Alfred, Donald, Douglas, and Lady!. This is all with some Awesome Music.
• Toby's first "The Reason You Suck" Speech to Montague:
  Montague: What is this, Tobias? A little army of your own to stop me? An army of steam locomotives at that. Alright, then, Tobias. Here's how it's going to work. You have two options. Either you come with me right now, give me back my engine, and die like you were meant to eighteen years ago! Or, you and all your friends die, and I take my engine back anyway! And I? I'm honestly not opposed to either one. So what will it be Tobias? (beat) I said CHOOSE!
  Tobias: I won't take orders from a coward! You sit there feeling all high and mighty, but you hide behind your diesels and expect them to do all the dirty work for you! The truth of the matter is, you're weak! Weak will, weak everything!You can't do anything on your own! You don't deserve to order anybody around! The truth is, that if you would have faced me yourself, one-on-one, you would lose!
  • After that, Montague pulls a Chekhov's Gun by showing everyone Mavis, whom Toby had killed earlier. Montague puts Toby in a Heroic BSoD again, and tries to get his engine back again.
    • Then, the Big Damn Heroes Moment when unknown engines push trucks off of the retaining wall and onto the diesels, putting Montague into a Freak Out as engines come from behind and derail the diesels. Percy then leads the charge as they take on the diesels.
• Toby leading Thomas and Percy to follow Montague and Atherton from escaping. Montague steals Henrietta, putting Toby into Tranquil Fury as the Chase Scene escalates.
  • There's credit for James and Edward, who manage to hold off the diesels for so long.
    • Extra Credit for Henrietta, who slams on her brakes as Montague and Atherton take her.
• Toby finally manages to catch up with Montague, Montague threatens to throw Henrietta into the sea if Toby comes any closer. Toby doubts this, thinking that Montague would have done already if he was such a BigBad. Montague proves he isn't bluffing by shunting backwards, nearly throwing Henrietta off.
• Toby finally decides to let Montague have his engine back in exchange for no harm to come to Henrietta. Montague laughs at Toby for begging, and is about to remove the engine until Henrietta's brakes slam again. He orders Atherton to help him, and Toby pulls the coolest Batman Gambit ever by the following:
  Toby: (Shunts into Atherton and Montague) You seem to forget, Monty, I'm only half-diesel, because no diesel engine could do this!
  (pulls Atherton and Montague out, defeating Atherton in the smoke of a Curb-Stomp Battle before throwing Montague to the edge of the cliff. Toby comes out and approaches Montague, who starts to whimper)
  Montague: NO, NO, NO, NO, NOOOOO! THAT IS MY ENGINE! MINE! I MUST BE THE HYBRID ENGINE! IT IS MY RIGH–
  Toby: Be quiet!
  Montague: You think they'll accept someone like you?! You're just a FREAK to them!!! An oddity! They'll all gawk at you, and ogle you, and leave you for dead! They will!
  Toby: No they won't! (shunts Montague so far he hits the buffers) They won't turn on me because this is my home now! And these are my friends, and my people! I am one of them now! They have accepted me for what I am, who I am, and for that, I will fight for them! (Beat) Now I'm going to give you a third option. I'm going to let you go. You're going to take all your diesels and run back to your little harbour, and you will never come back on this island. And if you try anything stupid, anything at all, I will change my mind! Don't make me change my mind.
  [Montague is left in shock at this. As Toby backs away, Montague's anger boils up.]
  Montague: IT IS MINE!!!!! [Toby shunts Montague over the edge and into the sea. Montague's face fades away before drowning.]
  Toby: No excuses.
