United States of Hetalia - We're the Axis Special Assault Team !
The first scene shows Germany looking through his binoculars and spying on England while Italy hums Hatafutte Parade. Germany comments that this must be England's camp. He then tells Italy to stop humming. Germany stops looking through his binoculars and says that in their current state, he's not confident with launching a head-on attack. Italy then turns to him and starts slapping him on the back saying 'Hey, hey Germany' while Germany says that his and Italy's army all together is a very small group, he would launch an attack if it wasn't for Italy. Germany then turns to Italy and asks what he wants. Italy asks Germany if he knows why the divorce rates in Italy are so low. Germany asks if it has anything to do with love or this and that. Italy replies that it's because the divorce paperwork is too much of a hassle.

An English solider passes by when he hears Italy laughing and Germany telling him to be quiet. Germany covers Italy's mouth while Italy scirbbles something in the dirt. He then asks Germany (with his mouth still covered) to guess what he drew. In the dirt, there are two stick figures; one wearing a party hat and holding two beer mugs, and the other holding one beer mug. Germany asks what it is, and Italy replies that it's Germany on a normal day and Germany during Christmas. Both of them start snickering while the English soldier comments to England that Italy and Germany have been there for a while, to which England tells him not to bother with them.
