A Coincidental Close Encounter

1. A large flying saucer has landed on Earth. Several armies gather around it.

Alien Leader: People of Earth, worry not. We come in peace! 

2. Close-up of Alien Leader as he addresses several military generals. 

Alien Leader: Your world and ours can learn so much from each other, which is why we wish to share our technology with you to help issue in a golden age of interstellar prosperity!

3. Military General steps forward to speak.

General: Tell me, traveller, what is the name of your people? I would learn it so that the Earth may better praise your generosity. 

4.  Side shot of Alien Leader and Generals

Alien Leader: We are the Nazis from Planet Nazi. 

General: What.

5. Alien Leader pulls out a tablet and reveals a golden swastika. 

I know not how to spell it in your language, but in ours it is represented by this glorious symbol.

General: Huh.

General 2: Oh god.

General 3: Wow. 

6. Alien Leader starts walking towards into the ship. The Generals look at eachother. They are sweaty and nervous. 

AL: Please, step on board, we can begin sharing our Nazi culture with you! 

7. A loud BLAM is heard, the Alien Leader falls with a bullet wound in his chest.

8. Cut back to Generals. One is holding a smoking gun.

General 1: Weather Balloon?

General 2: Weather balloon.  

General 3: Yup. 

End.
