Eddie is having a very busy day and Hodge really wants to help - but all the jobs need hands not wheels. When Wilson reports the track lift is malfunctioning, Hodge decides to try to fix it himself. He only makes matters worse, bringing the lift to a grinding halt with Wilson stuck on it! Eddie agrees to let Hodge go and fetch the lift part needed, as long as he uses Dr Ling's Chugnav to guide him on his journey. Unfortunately, Action Chugger has knocked the satellite, which has skewed the signal, leaving the Chugnav talking utter nonsense! Hodge figures out that the satellite must be broken - so Action Chugger takes Hodge on an exciting trip into space to fix it. Hodge finally gets to help out!
