Errr… I mised the opening. What did Beast Boy do to Starfire to get her so riled up? And where did the Himmeldonnerwetter twins come from?

Beast Boy was trying to ge at Cyborg for a practical joke he pulled. Beast Boy set up a trap where Cyborg would trip a rope that would send a balloon filled with motor oil to splash on his face but Starfire tripped it instead.
The twins just appeared. No backstory at all. I’m thinking they are juvenile gods or something.

FWIW, here’s a synopsis of their first print appearance:
New Teen Titans #32 [1983]: When the Titans come back from Zandia, Frances Kane returns to Blue Valley, Speedy returns to his work as a government agent, and Robin leaves the Titans, placing Wonder Girl in charge; Speedy learns that there is trouble in St. Louis, MO, and the Titans go there and battle the reluctant Thunder and Lightning, who are searching for their father, who may hold the secret of controlling their devastating elemental powers. Learning that Williams’s last known residence was in a Maine fishing village, the brothers go there, but are fought to a standstill by the Titans until Wonder Girl (through Wonder Woman’s Pentagon connections as Diana Prince) learns that their father has disappeared without a trace after a laboratory accident. Thunder and Lightning voluntarily surrender themselves to S.T.A.R. in hope of a cure, while the Titans vow to continue the search for Walter Williams.
