Thomas is first working at a Harrods toy shop in London, even during his great-uncle's death from unknown causes. When his boss called him in to report the shocking news of his great uncle's death (because of a heart attack after consuming too much junk food for 78 years), Thomas worried little about his great-uncle's death as he had never heard about or recognized him and also had been waiting for a promotion and played by the rules to get it. But his boss tells him that someone else got it, which resulted Thomas to get very enraged by knocking down the toys and punching a big teddy bear, resulting himself being fired.
