[Hitler has been nowhere to be found since Christmas, but he did leave presents under the tree for his not!family. For Nigel there is a junior chemistry set, which he figures the kid can use in that weird spy game he's always playing. It's just adorable how he's always sneaking around pretending to be a secret agent or something....  Sideswipe gets a first aid kit and a book on basic health and medicine, because it seems like he gets hurt a whole lot. Maybe it's because he isn't used to having a human body.... And there is even a gift for drone!mom. She gets a sewing kit to replace the one that he's been using since he got there. There is also a shiny new bunker on the front lawn.]

[Hitler has been sitting in that bunker for the better part of two days. He isn't stupid. He knows exactly what he has to do. And it's probably what he should do. The town was probably trying to teach him a lesson about believing that he could escape who and what he was. Believing that he could make friends and have a life of his own. He didn't deserve any of that. But.... did he really deserve this? To die the way his original did? Was there no way to escape fate? He had prayed for answers, clutching his Almighty Dolly tightly, like a lifeline. But none came.  Maybe now it's time to accept his fate......

So he picks up the gun, and the phone, and makes one last call. This call is for purely practical reasons, but he can't quite keep his voice steady.]


He- hello? Umm..... I was just wondering...... If.... someone was going to k-kill themselves, with a gun, what would be the least painful way?

I'm in the bunker on the front lawn. Don't worry, okay? I'll be out soon.

[It only takes a day to come back to life, right?]

Is that what that's for?

[Fffff- no, no no no. Get it together]

Don't do anything hasty. If I hear a gunshot, I won't forgive you!

Nigel... It's okay. Death isn't permanent here. I'll be back tomorrow, right?

No it's not! Why would you do that?!

Because...

[Lets see, how to explain this...]

Because I'm being punished for something I did.

....

That's the dumbest reason ever!!

Look, Hitler. If someone tries to punish you, you have to give them the slip! They're the bad guys, why should you do what they want? Don't be such a coward!

[Yeah, it is the dumbest reason ever, but he believes it.]

I wish it were that simple, but even if they are the bad guys, I'm not exactly a good person either...

I probably deserve this...

So what if you do? Nobody is good all of the time.

I mean it, Hitler, if you do this, we're not -

[friends? No, he's a teenager.... he's not sure they ever could have been friends. He grits his teeth, growling slightly.]

We're not brothers anymore!

[There is a long shocked pause, as several things run through Hitler's mind. First, he's both pleased and surprised that Nigel cares this much. Or ever considered them brothers in the first place. And he also feels pretty bad for upsetting his not!family like this. Especially since this is the only family he's ever had.]

I'm so sorry. I didn't really consider anyone else's feelings...

[No, it really wouldn't be fair. Even if he has to wait it out or die of starvation or whatever....]

I won't do it. No matter what happens, I promise you I won't pull the trigger.

[Nigel's got his reasons for caring this much, that's for sure. And well - he doesn't have any reason not to consider Hitler a brother; he's never had a brother, himself, so it's not like he's replacing anyone by saying that. Besides, they had a pact of sorts.

Anyway, he lets out a sigh of relief.]


Thank you, Hitler.

This won't be the end of it, though. What can you tell me about the bunker? Maybe Sideswipe or I can find a way to break in.

Well... besides the gun, the only things in here are a phone, a television set, and a bed. And the door doesn't open from this side....
