2 Aaron Burr, Sir
[COMPANY]
1776, New York City!
[HAMILTON]
Pardon me, are you Aaron Burr, sir?
[BURR]
That depends, who's asking?
[HAMILTON]
Oh, sure, sir. I'm Alexander Hamilton, I'm at your service, sir. I have been looking for you...
[BURR]
I'm getting nervous...
[HAMILTON]
Sir, I heard your name at Princeton, I was seeking an accelerated course of study when I got sort of out of sorts with a buddy of yours. I may have punched him, it's a blur, sir. He handles the financials?
[BURR]
You punched the bursar...
[HAMILTON]
Yes! I wanted to do what you did, graduate in two and join the Revolution. He looked at me like I was stupid. I'm not stupid! So how'd you do it? How'd you graduate so fast?
[BURR]
It was my parents' dying wish before they passed...
[HAMILTON]
You're an orphan. Of course! I'm an orphan! God, I wish there was a war and we could prove that we are worth more than anyone bargained for...
[BURR]
Can I buy you a drink?
[HAMILTON]
That would be nice!
[BURR]
While we're talking, let me offer you some free advice. Talk less...
[HAMILTON]
What?
[BURR]
Smile more...
[HAMILTON]
Ha!
[BURR]
Don't let them know what you're against or what you're for.
[HAMILTON]
You can't be serious?
[BURR]
You wanna get ahead?
[HAMILTON]
Yes.
[BURR]
Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead...
[LAURENS]
A y yo yo yo yo! What time is it?
[LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN/LAURENS]
Showtime!
[BURR]
Like I said...
[LAURENS]
Showtime! Showtime, what? I'm John Laurens in the place to be, a two pints of Sam Adams, but I'm working on three!
[LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN]
Ha!
[LAURENS]
Those redcoats don't want it with me, so I will plah-chika-plah these cops till I'm free!
[LAFAYETTE]
Oui oui mon ami, je m'appelle Lafayette! The Lancelot of the Revolutionary set! I came from afar just to say 'Bonsoir!' Tell the king, 'Casse toi.' Who is the best? C'est moi!
[MULLIGAN]
Brah! Brah! I am Hercules Mulligan. Upping it, loving it, tell your mother I said, "Come again!" Lock up your daughters and horses, of course, it's hard to have intercourse over four sets of corsets!
[LAFAYETTE]
Wow...
[LAURENS]
No more sex, pour me another brew, son! Let's raise a couple more...
[LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN/LAURENS]
To the revolution!
[LAURENS]
Well, if it ain't the prodigy of Princeton college!
[MULLIGAN]
Aaron Burr!
[LAURENS]
Give us a verse, drop some knowledge!
[BURR]
Good luck with that, you're taking a stand. You spit, imma sit, we'll see where we land...
[LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN/LAURENS]
Boo!
[LAURENS]
Burr, the revolution's imminent, what do you stall for?
[HAMILTON]
If you stand for nothing Burr, what'll you fall for?
[LAFAYETTE/MULLIGAN/LAURENS]
Who?
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who, who is this kid, what's he gonna do?!
