Plot point: hero person goes back in time to kill Hitler, but finds they have to fight off a bunch of other time travelers from different points in the future bc everyone wants the kill for themselves. Hitler still gets away.
Alternative plot point: The hero/es keep traveling back in time because everytime they kill a potential Nazi leader, someone worse ends up taking its place. We are left with the timeline where Hitler eventually takes that spot because it’s considered the “best”/“least destructive” timeline.
In Legends of Tomorrow, there’s a secret bar for time travellers that want to save Franz Ferdinand. You pull a number and wait your turn like at the DMV.
