It was no ordinary day on the Island of Sodor, for it was the day of the big race between Gordon and Spencer and all the Engines were excited.
Gordon was at the Water tower when Percy pulled up. "Good luck today, Gordon." he puffed.
"I don't need luck, little Percy," Gordon said proudly, "For I am better than you!"
Percy said nothing. He just puffed away and wished he had fingers. (or at least, one specific finger)
Little did Gordon know that he was being watched. Spencer and Kevin were watching Gordon on a set of computer screens.
"I've set up cameras all over Sodor," Spencer said proudly, "because, if you're as rich as me, you can never be to careful."
"Question: What's the point of all of this?" asked Kevin.
"Gordon is my rival so I must always be one step ahead of him at all times."
"Okay but do we really have to watch him shower in the morning? It just seems weird and..."
"I MUST ALWAYS BE ONE STEP AHEAD!"
