The Fat Controller
The Fat Controller has given James a new coat of red paint, to cheer him up after the accident on his first day, and becomes rather conceited. He lets off steam and accidentally sprays water on the Fat Controller's new top hat. He is ashamed, though, and worries about the consequences. Even though he is not punished on this occasion, the Fat Controller is so angry that he threatens to take away James's red paint and have him painted blue.
