He lives!

With the demise of Braces (did you really think that he was going to survive?) and the arrest of his minions (who really should have gotten him out of there before he had the chance to be electrocuted), the story seemed to have been wrapping itself up, but it would appear that there's still a little more left to tell.  After kicking off Magnum's head (which I guess wasn't electrified) Tracy thought that that was the end of his robotic adventures, but no, it turns out that TRAZE-R is still alive.  (One would think that he would then take the time to point out that he wasn't the one to destroy Magnum, as everyone seems to think, but that it was little Buzz who did it, but I guess since Buzz isn't around to get angry or point this out, he's going to let it slide and take all the glory.  Nice, TRAZE-R.  Real nice.)

Now all that's left to do is winch TRAZE-R back into his trailer and take him to the shop to get repaired (at least until the department gets the estimate and decides that they just don't have the money in the budget to repair him, and that he's actually worth more being sold for scrap).  I do find it a little unsettling that the winch appears to be connected to Tracy's forehead.  I'm also wondering how those broken wheels and axles are going to make it up that steep incline and into the trailer.  (I think it'd be easier to get a crane or skid steer and lift him up with that, but that's just me.)

And as a side note, I do like that it looks like Tracy is now wearing spats (and that he might also be a scarecrow).
