FADE IN:
EXT. BROWN APARTMENT BUILDING-DAY.
In the town of Braunau am Inn, a small brown apartment building with white window sills and arches, some with homeless Austrians sleeping under them or sitting down begging for spare change and food, a man in the style of the time, a brown suit and fedora, with a black briefcase enters the apartment.
DISSOLVE TO:
INT.APARTMENT BUILDING.
MAN enters apartment building lobby, music playing as he does so. The lobby has seen better days and a woman is sweeping the lobby wooden floor with a broom. Man nods to women and walks towards the receptionist,a young women.
MAN
Hello, what room is the Hitlers?
RECEPTIONIST nods and brings out a book then proceeds to flip to a page. A moment passes before she speaks.
RECEPTIONIST.
Room 24.
MAN nods, mouthing ‘thank you’ as music begins to play and he goes up a set of stairs.
DISSOLVE TO:.
MAN knocks on door labeled 24. A man's voice can heard from behind the door and steps before the doors creaked open, ALOIS is on the other side, holding the door with one hand on the handle. He is in a hastily put together pair of a coat and pants.
ALOIS.
If you're not the doctor, take your cries elsewhere
Camera pans towards MAN, who visibly chuckles.
MAN
Well then, good thing I am the doctor.
ALOIS nods, either not getting the MAN’s humor or lacking his own. He lets the MAN in and leads him down a small hallway into the bedroom of the flat. The flat is not the most attractive, with a ugly brown carpet and peeling wall paper. Painting line up the wall and a radio plays classical music. To the left of ALOIS and MAN, a heavily pregnant woman lays on a two person bed clearly in labor. Two nurses sit besides her and take care of her. One of them notices MAN and stands up.
NURSE 1
Good evening.
MAN
(Putting his things down)
Good evening.
Camera cuts to MAN opening his briefcase, the medical equipment in it in view. Camera then cuts to him putting white gloves on and coming over to KLARA as a nurse holds her hand trying to calm her down.
MAN
(Kneeling down)
Hallo meine patientien
KLARA nods and camera cuts to where her face can be seen and the MAN’s back if facing the camera. Sounds is slowly drowned out by Wagner's Kaisermarsch.
Wipe To:
A young HITLER, aged 14, sits on a wooden stool as ALOIS prances about in their apartment.
ALOIS.
(In an poorly disguised anger)
Do you wish to humiliate me?
HITLER just looks on, ALOIS slaps him, nearly taking HITLER off the stool.
ALOIS
(Now yelling)
Answer me, Miststück!
Still, HITLER does not answer. ALOIS slaps him again, this time hard enough to make HITLER fall. ALOIS grabs HITLER'S collar and brings him up to his bearded face.
ALOIS.
(Face red and yelling)
Listen here, you Du Hurensohn, I will not tolerate failures in my bloodline.
He lets HITLER go and storms way.
