an old Harlen Ellison story. Hitler is in hell quietly painting pictures of flowers on a wall. Suddenly, somehow an entrance opens up to Heaven. Hitler is content so he just sits there but one damned soul escapes. It turns out she was lynched for a murder but was innocent. She searches for the real murderer and the skies of Heaven start to darken and melt. When she confronts the real murderer all he can do is cry. At that point God shows up and forces the woman back into hell. After closing the entrance behind her God remarks that he must tell Michelangelo about the beautiful flowers he saw painted on the walls of Hell.
