14. In the audition scene, one of the funniest in the film (or any film), all of the hopefuls for the role of Hitler are rejected (some before they have sung a note). At the last minute, a spaced-out "flower child" (Dick Shawn) arrives who wanted to audition for another show ("Boomerang"), but came to the wrong theater. They let him perform his "audition piece", a rambling, incoherent monologue called "Love Power" ("And I give a flower to the garbageman; he put my girl into a garbage can!"); Max triumphantly declares "That's our Hitler!".

19. Ultimately, the show becomes a surprise hit, thanks largely to L.S.D.'s outlandish, unintentionally hilarious performance as Hitler.
