call feels different.

From a 1/4 Tag, everyone does the 'Trailers part' as if they started from
Parallel Waves. Be sure to end in a 3/4 Tag formation:
Centers reform the center Wave, and Outsides slide together to form a Couple.

When the starting formation is Left-handed, be sure to do the Left-hand
version of the call, ending in a Left-hand formation.
