  • Pardon me, are you Aaron Burr, sir?

  • That depends; who's asking?

  • Oh, well, sure, sir!

  • I'm Alexander Hamilton; I'm at your service, sir.

  • I have been looking for you.

  • I'm getting nervous.

  • 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?

  • You punched the bursar....

  • Yes!

  • I wanted to do what you did: graduate in two then 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?

  • It was my parents' dying wish before they passed.

  • You're an orphan. Of course! I'm an orphan.

  • God! I wish there was a war

  • Then we could prove that we're worth more than anyone bargained for.

  • Can I buy you a drink?

  • That would be nice.

  • While we're talking let me offer you some free advice:

  • Talk less.

  • What?

  • Smile more.

  • Ha.

  • Don't let them know what you're against or what you're for.

  • You can't be serious.

  • You wanna get ahead?

  • Yes.

  • Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead.

  • A yo yo yo yo yo!

  • What time is it? Showtime!

  • Like I said...

  • Showtime, showtime, yo!

  • A- two pints of Sam Adams, but I'm workin' on three, ha!

  • Those redcoats don't want it with me

  • 'cause I will POP chicka PLOP these cops til I'm free!

  • Yes I heard your mother say "Come Again?"

  • Lock up your daughters and horses,

  • of course it's

  • hard to have intercourse over four sets of corsets.

  • Wow.

  • No more sex, pour me another brew, son.

  • Let's raise a couple more to the Revolution!

  • Well if it ain't the prodigy of Princeton college!

  • Aaron Burr!

  • Give us a verse, drop some knowledge!

  • Good luck with that; you're taking a stand.

  • You spit, I'ma sit; we'll see where we land.

  • Burr, the revolution's imminent, what do you stall for?

  • If you stand for nothing, Burr, what'll you fall for?

  • Ooh!

  • Who are you, who are you, who are you?

  • Ooh, who is this kid?

  • What's he gonna do?
