    That's because the phrase is "Olly, olly, oxen free!" you dingus.

    Also fun fact that phrase is most likely a bastard anglicized form of the German "Alle, alle auch sind frei!" or "Everyone, Everyone also is free!"

      Ah, thank you. I changed what I was shouting, and now the prisoners are streaming out. The guards are fuming one of them is shouting "teacher! Teacher, he can't just do that, cam he teacher?"
