But it could never be the same as it used to be back home in Mechanicsburg. PANEL SIX Oggie: Ha! But this year, we are all here, and we have a new Heterodyne--whew! We are going to have a proper old-fashioned Jägerstomp tonight, just like the old days! Oggie: You see, the old Heterodynes, they– (POUNDING ON DOOR) Oggie: Oh!
