Episode 2

SARAH
Excuse me?

DWAYNE
This Sunday, April Twentieth, is Hitler’s birthday.  It’s a BIG deal and they ordered us to throw a party.

SARAH
They?

TERRY
Our chapter of the Nazi Party.  They want us to make the hall look. . . oh, crap, Dwayne, what was that word again?

DWAYNE
Festive.

TERRY
So for starters . . . [TERRY peers at SARAH’S nametag] Sarah, we thought to get some red and black streamers—

DWAYNE
Official Nazi colors . . . .

TERRY
And some red balloons stamped with swastikas, in black.  Can you help with that?

SARAH
...We can help with . . . some of those things.

DWAYNE
Show her the list, Terry.

TERRY
            [From his pocket, TERRY pulls out a piece of notebook paper, folded into a small square, and hands it to SARAH]
We made this list, see . . . .

SARAH
Let’s take a look . . . Red and black paper plates, red and black plastic cups, red and black plastic utensils; the aforementioned steamers and balloons . . . a banner that says Happy Birthday Mein Fuhrer—

DWAYNE
            [Interrupting]
And in smaller letters, at the bottom, And Many Happy Returns!
