I'm in the heart of a Nazi territory, and I see Hitler himself walking down the hall. Hitler enters a room and gets his scientists to fire up a machine. The machine comes to life and produces a round electric blue ball of sparks in a chamber. I'm not sure what this device does until I see Hitler walking down the hall with an older version of himself from the future. It's a time machine! I wonder if there is an older version of me wandering around in this time line somewhere.

Hitler orders me to stand guard at the end of the hallway and not let anyone in while they do their experiments. I take my position and try to look tough with my arms folded across my chest. But I see everyone in uniform, which I'm not wearing, and think that's not a very militaristic pose. I put my arms down straight and wonder how I'm going to stop these Nazis with guns if they want to get by me.

The door I'm guarding is in a class room full of young Nazi kids. When the teacher sees me, she asks if they're doing the experiments in there, and nods her head when I tell her yes.

A large Dolph Lundrum looking dude enters from the experimental side and tells me to follow him. Me and several other people follow him into the time machine and we find ourselves back in the past, in my hometown. Dolph points out a large abandoned mansion, and says it's Hitler's house. I recognize it, but never saw anyone living in it growing up. We enter and Dolph gives us the tour, pointing out elaborate stone work that broke building codes, which was why the house was never finished. I tell him I knew that, because I was the one who put in the floors.

Wanting to show my up for being a smartass, Dolph walks up to me and opens a secret hatch in the floor, swinging so it hits me as he opens it and bowling me over. We all go downstairs where Dolph and some scientists enter a lab room full of equipment. Once the machinery is up and running, Dolph begins killing all the scientists. I watch as he snaps that last woman's neck and then turns his sights on me.

I'm aware I have radioactive spider powers, but since I'm not in costume, I run. Dolph catches me outside, but I manage to bash his head in with a brick. I run back into the house where Dolph follows and corners me with the last female survivor of our group. As Dolph grabs me, I realize I don't need my costume to activate my spider powers and I quickly overpower him. Spider powers for the win!
