Sounds like, "hey Stronce!" Sounds like a bad word used on Sopranos.

I'm guessing it's some kind of German-languange word for "Father."

(this is the Tex Avery cartoon I Love To Singa.)

Sounds to me like "Hello, stranger!"

Added into the fact that black-sheep son Owl is a Jazz Singer, maybe his utterance to his father was something a jazz singer would say!

that's anti-climatic. I was expecting something better. Oh well.

It sounds like "Hello Stranger," but with a big, fake phony German accent, like dad has.

I don't think it's supposed to be German. I think it's supposed to be an impression, of sorts, of Al Jolson, in the same way others have done impressions of him doing the whole "Mammy!" thing.
