1 00:00:27 Ladies and gentlemen,
2 00:00:28 this is your king, George III.
3 00:00:33 Welcome to Hamilton.

8 00:01:09 How does a bastard, orphan
9 00:01:12 Son of a whore and a Scotsman
10 00:01:15 Dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot in the Caribbean
11 00:01:19 By providence, impoverished, in squalor
12 00:01:22 Grow up to be a hero and a scholar?
13 00:01:25 The ten-dollar, founding father without a father
14 00:01:29 Got a lot farther by working a lot harder
15 00:01:32 By being a lot smarter
16 00:01:34 By being a self-starter
17 00:01:36 By 14, they placed him in charge of a trading charter
18 00:01:41 And every day, while slaves
19 00:01:42 Were being slaughtered and carted away across the waves
20 00:01:46 He struggled and kept his guard up
21 00:01:48 Inside, he was longing for something to be a part of
22 00:01:52 The brother was ready to beg, steal, borrow or barter
23 00:01:56 Then a hurricane came and devastation reigned
24 00:01:59 Our man saw his future drip, dripping down the drain
25 00:02:04 Put a pencil to his temple, connected it to his brain
26 00:02:08 And he wrote his first refrain, a testament to his pain
27 00:02:11 Well, the word got around, they said, "This kid is insane, man"
28 00:02:16 Took up a collection just to send him to the mainland
29 00:02:19 "Get your education, don't forget from whence you came
30 00:02:23 And the world's gonna know your name
31 00:02:25 What's your name, man?
32 00:02:27 Alexander Hamilton
33 00:02:30 My name is Alexander Hamilton
34 00:02:35 And there's a million things I haven't done
35 00:02:38 But just you wait
36 00:02:40 Just you wait
37 00:02:42 When he was ten, his father split, full of it, debt-ridden
38 00:02:46 Two years later, see Alex and his mother bedridden, half dead
39 00:02:51 Sittin' in their own sick, the scent thick and...
40 00:02:55 Alex got better but his mother went quick
41 00:02:59 Moved in with a cousin, the cousin committed suicide
42 00:03:02 Left him with nothing but ruined pride. Something new inside
43 00:03:06 A voice saying
44 00:03:07 "Alex, you gotta fend for yourself"
45 00:03:09 He started retreatin' and readin' every treatise on the shelf
46 00:03:13 There would've been nothing left to do for someone less astute
47 00:03:16 He would've been dead or destitute without a cent of restitution
48 00:03:20 Started working, clerking for his late mother's landlord
49 00:03:24 Tradin' sugarcane and rum and all the things he can't afford
50 00:03:27 Scammin' for every book he can get his hands on
51 00:03:31 Plannin' for the future see him now as he stands on
52 00:03:34 The bow of a ship headed for a new land
53 00:03:37 In New York you can be a new man
54 00:03:41 In New York you can be a new man
55 00:03:43 Just you wait
56 00:03:45 In New York you can be a new man
57 00:03:47 Just you wait
58 00:03:48 In New York you can be a new man
59 00:03:52 In New York, New York
60 00:03:54 Just you wait
61 00:03:55 Alexander Hamilton
62 00:03:57 Alexander Hamilton
63 00:03:59 We are waiting in the wings for you
64 00:04:01 Waiting in the wings for you
65 00:04:02 You could never back down
66 00:04:04 You never learned to take your time
67 00:04:10 Alexander Hamilton
68 00:04:11 Alexander Hamilton
69 00:04:13 When America sings for you
70 00:04:16 Will they know what you overcame?
71 00:04:20 Will they know you rewrote the game?
72 00:04:23 The world will never be the same
73 00:04:31 The ship is in the harbor now
74 00:04:33 See if you can spot him
75 00:04:34 Just you wait
76 00:04:35 Another immigrant comin' up from the bottom
77 00:04:37 Just you wait
78 00:04:38 His enemies destroyed his rep, America forgot him
79 00:04:41 We fought with him
80 00:04:43 Me, I died for him
81 00:04:45 Me, I trusted him
82 00:04:47 Me, I loved him
83 00:04:48 And me
84 00:04:50 I'm the damn fool that shot him
85 00:04:52 Shot him, shot him
86 00:04:53 There's a million things I haven't done
87 00:04:56 But just you wait
88 00:04:59 What's your name, man?
89 00:05:01 Alexander Hamilton
90 00:05:20 New York City
91 00:05:21 Pardon me, are you Aaron Burr, sir
92 00:05:24 That depends who's asking
93 00:05:25 Oh, well, sure, sir, I'm Alexander Hamilton
94 00:05:28 I'm at your service, sir
95 00:05:30 I have been looking for you
96 00:05:31 I'm getting nervous
97 00:05:32 Sir, I heard your name at Princeton
98 00:05:34 I was seeking an accelerated course of study
99 00:05:37 When I got sort of out of sorts with a buddy of yours
100 00:05:40 I may have punched him it's a blur, sir
101 00:05:42 He handles the financials
102 00:05:43 You punched the bursar
103 00:05:45 Yes. I wanted to do what you did
104 00:05:46 Graduate in two then join the revolution
105 00:05:49 He looked at me like I was stupid
106 00:05:50 I'm not stupid
107 00:05:52 So, how'd you do it?
108 00:05:53 How'd you graduate so fast?
109 00:05:55 It was my parents' dying wish before they passed
110 00:05:57 You're an orphan, of course
111 00:05:59 I'm an orphan. God
112 00:05:59 I wish there was a war
113 00:06:01 Then we could prove that
114 00:06:01 we're worth more than anyone bargained for
115 00:06:04 Can I buy you a drink
116 00:06:05 That would be nice
117 00:06:07 While we're talking, let me offer you some free advice
118 00:06:10 Talk less
119 00:06:12 What
120 00:06:13 Smile more
121 00:06:16 Don't let them know
122 00:06:17 What you're against or what you're for
123 00:06:22 You can't be serious
124 00:06:24 You wanna get ahead?
125 00:06:26 Yes
126 00:06:27 Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead
127 00:06:33 What time is it?
128 00:06:34 Showtime!
129 00:06:36 Like I said
130 00:06:37 Showtime! Showtime!
131 00:06:39 I'm John Laurens in the place to be
132 00:06:42 Had two pints of Sam Adams
133 00:06:43 But I'm workin' on three
134 00:06:45 Those redcoats don't want it with me
135 00:06:48 'Cause I will pop chick-a pop these cops till I'm free
136 00:06:50 Oui, oui, mon ami, je m'appelle Lafayette
137 00:06:53 The Lancelot of the revolutionary set
138 00:06:56 I came from afar just to say, "Bonsoir"
139 00:06:59 Tell the king "Casse-toi"
140 00:07:00 Who is the best?
141 00:07:01 C'est moi
142 00:07:03 I am Hercules Mulligan, up in it, lovin' it
143 00:07:06 Yes, I heard your mother said, "Come again?"
144 00:07:08 Lock up your daughters and horses
145 00:07:10 Of course, it's hard to have intercourse over four sets of corsets
146 00:07:15 No more sex, pour me another brew, son
147 00:07:17 Let's raise a couple more to the revolution
148 00:07:20 Well, if it ain't the prodigy of Princeton College
149 00:07:23 Aaron Burr
150 00:07:24 Give us a verse, drop some knowledge
151 00:07:27 Good luck with, that you're takin' a stand
152 00:07:28 You spit, I'mma sit
153 00:07:30 We'll see where we land
154 00:07:31 Burr, the revolution's imminent, what do you stall for
155 00:07:34 If you stand for nothing, Burr, what'll you fall for
156 00:07:38 Who are you?
157 00:07:39 Who are you?
158 00:07:39 Who are you?
159 00:07:40 Who is this kid? What's he gonna do?
160 00:07:42 I am not throwing away my shot
161 00:07:45 I am not throwing away my shot
162 00:07:48 Hey, yo, I'm just like my country
163 00:07:49 I'm young, scrappy and hungry
164 00:07:50 And I'm not throwing away my shot
165 00:07:53 I'mma get a scholarship to King's College
166 00:07:55 I probably shouldn't brag
167 00:07:56 But dag, I amaze and astonish
168 00:07:58 The problem is I got a lot of brains but no polish
169 00:08:00 I gotta holler just to be heard
170 00:08:02 With every word, I drop knowledge
171 00:08:04 I'm a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal
172 00:08:07 Tryin' to reach my goal
173 00:08:08 My power of speech, unimpeachable
174 00:08:10 Only 19, but my mind is older
175 00:08:12 These New York City streets get colder
176 00:08:14 I shoulder every burden
177 00:08:15 Every disadvantage I have learned to manage
178 00:08:17 I don't have a gun to brandish
179 00:08:19 I walk these streets famished
180 00:08:20 The plan is to fan this spark into a flame
181 00:08:23 But damn, it's getting dark
182 00:08:24 So let me spell out the name
183 00:08:25 I am the A-l-e-x-a-n-d-e-r
184 00:08:29 We are meant to be
185 00:08:31 A colony that runs independently
186 00:08:33 Meanwhile, Britain keeps shittin' on us endlessly
187 00:08:36 Essentially, they tax us relentlessly
188 00:08:38 Then King George turns around runs a spending spree
189 00:08:41 He ain't ever gonna set his descendants free
190 00:08:44 So there will be a revolution in this century
191 00:08:46 Enter me
192 00:08:47 He says in parentheses
193 00:08:49 And don't be shocked when your history book mentions me
194 00:08:52 I will lay down my life if it sets us free
195 00:08:54 Eventually you'll see my ascendancy
196 00:08:57 And I am not throwing away my shot
197 00:08:59 My shot
198 00:09:00 I am not throwing away my shot
199 00:09:02 My shot
200 00:09:02 Hey, yo, I'm just like my country
201 00:09:04 I'm young, scrappy and hungry
202 00:09:05 And I'm not throwing away my shot
203 00:09:08 I am not throwing away my shot
204 00:09:10 I am not throwing away my shot
205 00:09:13 Hey, yo, I'm just like my country
206 00:09:14 I'm young, scrappy and hungry
207 00:09:16 And I'm not throwing away my shot
208 00:09:18 It's time to take a shot
209 00:09:19 I dream of life without a monarchy
210 00:09:21 The unrest in France will lead to "on-archy"
211 00:09:24 "On-archy?" How you say?
212 00:09:26 Anarchy
213 00:09:27 When I fight I make the other side panicky
214 00:09:29 With my shot
215 00:09:30 Yo, I'm a tailor's apprentice
216 00:09:32 And I got y'all knuckleheads in loco parentis
217 00:09:34 I'm joining the rebellion
218 00:09:36 'Cause I know it's my chance to socially advance
219 00:09:38 Instead of sewin' some pants
220 00:09:39 I'm gonna take a shot!
221 00:09:41 But we'll never be truly free
222 00:09:42 Until those in bondage have the same rights as you and me
223 00:09:45 You and I, do or die
224 00:09:46 Wait till I sally in on a stallion
225 00:09:48 With the first black battalion
226 00:09:50 Have another shot
227 00:09:51 Geniuses, lower your voices
228 00:09:53 You keep out of trouble and you double your choices
229 00:09:56 I'm with you
230 00:09:56 But the situation is fraught
231 00:09:58 You've got to be carefully taught
232 00:10:00 If you talk, you're gonna get shot
233 00:10:02 Burr, check what we got
234 00:10:04 Mr. Lafayette hard rock like Lancelot
235 00:10:06 I think your pants look hot
236 00:10:08 Laurens, I like you a lot
237 00:10:09 Let's hatch a plot blacker than the kettle callin' the pot
238 00:10:12 What are the odds the gods would put us all in one spot
239 00:10:14 Poppin' a squat on conventional wisdom, like it or not
240 00:10:17 A bunch of revolutionary manumission abolitionists?
241 00:10:20 Give me a position
242 00:10:21 Show me where the ammunition is
243 00:10:23 Oh, am I talkin' too loud?
244 00:10:25 Sometimes I get overexcited shoot off at the mouth
245 00:10:28 I never had a group of friends before
246 00:10:29 I promise that I'll make y'all proud
247 00:10:31 Let's get this guy in front of a crowd
248 00:10:33 I am not throwing away my shot
249 00:10:36 I am not throwing away My shot
250 00:10:38 Hey, yo, I'm just like my country
251 00:10:40 I'm young, scrappy and hungry
252 00:10:41 And I'm not throwing away my shot
253 00:10:44 I am not throwing away my shot
254 00:10:46 I am not throwing away my shot
255 00:10:49 Hey, yo, I'm just like my country
256 00:10:50 I'm young, scrappy and hungry
257 00:10:52 And I'm not throwing away my shot
258 00:10:54 Everybody sing!
259 00:11:03 Say, let 'em hear ya!
260 00:11:05 Let's go!
261 00:11:07 I said shout it to the rooftops!
262 00:11:11 Said, to the rooftops!
263 00:11:13 Come on!
264 00:11:15 Come on, let's go!
265 00:11:16 Rise up
266 00:11:17 When you're living on your knees, you rise up
267 00:11:19 Tell your brother that he's gotta rise up
268 00:11:22 Tell your sister that she's gotta rise up
269 00:11:25 When are these colonies gonna rise up?
270 00:11:27 When are these colonies gonna rise up?
271 00:11:30 When are these colonies gonna rise up?
272 00:11:32 When are these colonies gonna rise up?
273 00:11:35 Rise up!
274 00:11:36 I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory
275 00:11:39 When is it gonna get me?
276 00:11:40 In my sleep? Seven feet ahead of me?
277 00:11:42 If I see it comin' do I run, or do I let it be?
278 00:11:45 Is it like a beat without a melody?
279 00:11:47 See, I never thought I'd live past 20
280 00:11:49 Where I come from some get half as many
281 00:11:52 Ask anybody why we livin' fast
282 00:11:54 And we laugh, reach for a flask
283 00:11:56 We have to make this moment last
284 00:11:57 That's plenty
285 00:11:58 Scratch that
286 00:11:59 This is not a moment
287 00:12:00 It's the movement
288 00:12:01 Where all the hungriest brothers with something to prove went
289 00:12:04 Foes oppose us
290 00:12:05 We take an honest stand
291 00:12:06 We roll like Moses
292 00:12:08 Claimin' our promised land
293 00:12:09 And if we win our independence?
294 00:12:12 Is that a guarantee of freedom for our descendants?
295 00:12:14 Or will the blood we shed
296 00:12:16 Begin an endless cycle of vengeance
297 00:12:18 And death with no defendants?
298 00:12:20 I know the action in the street is excitin'
299 00:12:22 But Jesus, between all the bleedin' and fightin'
300 00:12:24 I've been readin' and writin'
301 00:12:25 We need to handle our financial situation
302 00:12:28 Are we a nation of states?
303 00:12:29 What's the state of our nation?
304 00:12:31 I'm past patiently waitin'
305 00:12:32 I'm passionately smashin' every expectation
306 00:12:34 Every action's an act of creation
307 00:12:36 I'm laughin' in the face of casualties and sorrow
308 00:12:39 For the first time, I'm thinkin' past tomorrow
309 00:12:41 And I am not throwing away my shot
310 00:12:44 I am not throwing away my shot
311 00:12:47 Hey, yo, I'm just like my country
312 00:12:48 I'm young, scrappy and hungry
313 00:12:49 And I'm not throwing away my shot
314 00:12:52 We gonna rise up! Time to take a shot
315 00:12:54 We gonna rise up! Time to take a shot
316 00:12:57 We're gonna rise up, rise up
317 00:12:59 It's time to take a shot!
318 00:13:00 Rise up, rise up
319 00:13:02 It's time to take a shot!
320 00:13:03 Rise up
321 00:13:04 It's time to take a shot!
322 00:13:05 Rise up
323 00:13:06 It's time to take a shot! Shot! Shot!
324 00:13:08 It's time to take a shot!
325 00:13:09 Time to take a shot!
326 00:13:10 And I am not throwin' away my
327 00:13:12 Not throwin' away my shot!

361 00:15:07 Tell the story of tonight
362 00:15:15 There's nothing rich folks love more
363 00:15:17 Than going downtown and slummin' it with the poor
364 00:15:20 They pull up in their carriages and gawk
365 00:15:22 At the students in the common just to watch them talk
366 00:15:25 Take Philip Schuyler
367 00:15:26 The man is loaded
368 00:15:28 But little does he know
369 00:15:29 That his daughters Peggy, Angelica, Eliza
370 00:15:32 Sneak into the city just to watch all the guys at--
371 00:15:34 Work, work

381 00:15:43 Work
382 00:15:44 Daddy said to be home by sundown
383 00:15:46 Daddy doesn't need to know
384 00:15:49 Daddy said not to go downtown
385 00:15:51 Like I said, you're free to go
386 00:15:53 But look around, look around
387 00:15:55 The revolution's happening in New York
388 00:15:59 New York
389 00:16:00 Angelica, work
390 00:16:03 It's bad enough Daddy wants to go to war
391 00:16:05 People shouting in the square
392 00:16:08 It's bad enough there'll be violence on our shore
393 00:16:10 New ideas in the air
394 00:16:12 Look around, look around
395 00:16:14 Angelica, remind me what we're looking for
396 00:16:18 She's lookin' for me!

406 00:16:36 Excuse me, miss, I know it's not funny
407 00:16:38 But your perfume smells like your daddy's got money
408 00:16:40 Why you slummin' in the city in your fancy heels?
409 00:16:43 You searchin' for an urchin who can give you ideals?
410 00:16:45 Burr, you disgust me
411 00:16:46 So you've discussed me
412 00:16:48 I'm a trust fund, baby
413 00:16:49 You can trust me
414 00:16:50 I've been reading "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine
415 00:16:52 So men say that I'm intense or I'm insane
416 00:16:55 You want a revolution? I wanna revelation!
417 00:16:57 So listen to my declaration
418 00:16:59 "We hold these truths to be self-evident
419 00:17:02 That all men are created equal"

461 00:18:25 Hear ye, hear ye!
462 00:18:26 My name is Samuel Seabury, and I present
463 00:18:29 "Free Thoughts on the Proceedings of the Continental Congress."
464 00:18:33 Heed not the rabble who scream revolution
465 00:18:37 They have not your interests at heart
466 00:18:40 Oh, my God, tear this dude apart
467 00:18:42 Chaos and bloodshed are not a solution
468 00:18:47 Don't let them lead you astray
469 00:18:51 This Congress does not speak for me
470 00:18:54 Let him be.
471 00:18:55 They're playing a dangerous game
472 00:19:00 I pray the king shows you his mercy
473 00:19:04 For shame
474 00:19:06 For shame
475 00:19:08 Yo, he'd have you all unravel
476 00:19:09 Heed not the rabble
477 00:19:10 at the sound of screams
478 00:19:11 Who scream revolution
479 00:19:12 But the revolution is comin'
480 00:19:13 They have not your interests at heart
481 00:19:13 The have-nots are gonna win this
482 00:19:15 It's hard to listen to you with a straight face
483 00:19:18 Chaos and bloodshed
484 00:19:18 Chaos and bloodshed
485 00:19:19 Already haunt us
486 00:19:20 Honestly you shouldn't even talk
487 00:19:21 Are not a solution
488 00:19:22 Don't let them lead you astray
489 00:19:22 And what about Boston?
490 00:19:24 Look at the cost and all that we've lost
491 00:19:26 And you talk about Congress
492 00:19:26 This Congress does not speak for me
493 00:19:28 My dog speaks more eloquently than thee
494 00:19:31 They're playing a dangerous game
495 00:19:33 But, strangely your mange is the same
496 00:19:35 I pray the king shows you his mercy
497 00:19:38 Is he in Jersey?
498 00:19:39 For shame
499 00:19:40 For the revolution
500 00:19:42 For shame
501 00:19:43 For the revolution
502 00:19:44 Heed--
503 00:19:45 If you repeat yourself again
504 00:19:46 I'm gonna--
505 00:19:46 Scream--
506 00:19:47 Honestly, look at me Please, don't read
507 00:19:49 Not your interests at--
508 00:19:50 Don't modulate the key then not debate with me
509 00:19:53 Why should a tiny island across the sea regulate the price of tea?
510 00:19:57 Alexander, please!
511 00:19:58 Burr, I'd rather be divisive than indecisive
512 00:20:00 Drop the niceties
513 00:20:02 Silence!
514 00:20:03 A message from the king!
515 00:20:05 A message from the king!
516 00:20:07 A message from the king!
517 00:20:22 You say
518 00:20:24 The price of my love's not a price that you're willing to pay
519 00:20:30 You cry in your tea
520 00:20:33 which you hurled in the sea when you see me go by
521 00:20:38 Why so sad?
522 00:20:41 Remember we made an arrangement when you went away
523 00:20:46 Now you're making me mad
524 00:20:49 Remember, despite our estrangement
525 00:20:53 I'm your man
526 00:20:58 You'll be back
527 00:21:00 Soon you'll see
528 00:21:02 You'll remember you belong to me
529 00:21:06 You'll be back
530 00:21:08 Time will tell
531 00:21:10 You'll remember that I served you well
532 00:21:14 Oceans rise, empires fall
533 00:21:18 We have seen each other through it all
534 00:21:22 And when push comes to shove
535 00:21:26 I will send a fully armed battalion
536 00:21:29 To remind you of my love
537 00:21:46 You say our love is draining
538 00:21:49 And you can't go on
539 00:21:54 You'll be the one complaining when I am gone
540 00:22:02 And, no, don't change the subject
541 00:22:06 'Cause you're my favorite subject
542 00:22:10 My sweet, submissive subject
543 00:22:14 My loyal, royal subject
544 00:22:18 Forever and ever
545 00:22:22 And ever and ever and ever
546 00:22:29 You'll be back like before
547 00:22:34 I will fight the fight and win the war
548 00:22:37 For your love, for your praise
549 00:22:41 And I'll love you till my dying days
550 00:22:45 When you're gone, I'll go mad
551 00:22:49 So don't throw away this thing we had
552 00:22:53 'Cause when push comes to shove
553 00:22:57 I will kill your friends and family
554 00:23:03 To remind you of my love
555 00:23:21 Everybody!
556 00:24:13 British Admiral Howe's got troops on the water
557 00:24:19 32,000 troops in New York Harbor
558 00:24:26 32,000 troops in New York Harbor
559 00:24:33 When they surround our troops
560 00:24:35 They surround our troops. They surround our troops
561 00:24:39 As a kid in the Caribbean I wished for a war
562 00:24:42 I knew that I was poor, I knew it was the only way to rise up
563 00:24:47 If they tell my story
564 00:24:48 I am either gonna die on the battlefield in glory
565 00:24:52 Or rise up
566 00:24:53 We will fight for this land but there's only one man
567 00:24:56 who can give us a command
568 00:24:58 So we can rise up
569 00:24:59 Understand, it's the only way to rise up, rise up
570 00:25:04 Here he comes
571 00:25:04 Here comes the general
572 00:25:06 Ladies and gentlemen
573 00:25:07 Here comes the general!
574 00:25:09 The moment you've been waiting for
575 00:25:11 Here comes the general
576 00:25:12 The pride of Mount Vernon
577 00:25:14 Here comes the general
578 00:25:14 George Washington
579 00:25:16 We are outgunned
580 00:25:17 What?
581 00:25:18 Outmanned
582 00:25:19 What?
583 00:25:20 Outnumbered, out-planned
584 00:25:22 We gotta make an all-out stand
585 00:25:25 Hey, yo I'm gonna need a right-hand man
586 00:25:28 Check it
587 00:25:29 Can I be real a second? For just a millisecond?
588 00:25:32 Let down my guard and tell the people how I feel a second?
589 00:25:35 Now, I'm the model of a modern major general
590 00:25:38 The venerated Virginian veteran
591 00:25:40 whose men are all lining up to put me up on a pedestal
592 00:25:43 writing letters to relatives
593 00:25:45 embellishing my elegance and eloquence
594 00:25:47 But the elephant is in the room, the truth is in your face
595 00:25:51 When you hear the British cannons go...
596 00:25:53 Any hope of success is fleeting
597 00:25:55 How can I keep leading
598 00:25:57 when the people I'm leading keep retreating?
599 00:25:59 We put a stop to the bleeding as the British take Brooklyn
600 00:26:03 Knight takes rook, but look
601 00:26:05 We are outgunned
602 00:26:06 What?
603 00:26:07 Outmanned
604 00:26:08 What?
605 00:26:09 Outnumbered, out-planned
606 00:26:11 We gotta make an all-out stand
607 00:26:14 Hey, yo I'm gonna need a right-hand man
608 00:26:18 Incoming!
609 00:26:21 They're battering down the Battery, check the damages
610 00:26:24 We gotta stop 'em and rob 'em of their advantages
611 00:26:27 Let's take a stand with the stamina God has granted us
612 00:26:29 Hamilton won't abandon ship
613 00:26:31 Yo, let's steal their cannons
614 00:26:33 Goes the cannon, watch the blood and the shit spray
615 00:26:36 Goes the cannon, we're abandoning Kip's Bay
616 00:26:39 And there's another ship, and...
617 00:26:41 We just lost the southern tip, and...
618 00:26:42 We gotta run to Harlem quick
619 00:26:43 We can't afford another slip
620 00:26:45 Guns and horses, giddyap. I decide to divvy up my forces
621 00:26:48 They're skittish as the British cut the city up
622 00:26:51 This close to giving up, facing mad scrutiny
623 00:26:54 I scream in the face of this mass mutiny
624 00:26:57 Are these the men with which I am to defend America?
625 00:27:00 We ride at midnight, Manhattan in the distance
626 00:27:03 I cannot be everywhere at once, people,
627 00:27:06 I'm in dire need of assistance
628 00:27:08 - Your Excellency, sir. - Who are you?
629 00:27:11 Aaron Burr, sir. Permission to state my case?
630 00:27:13 As you were.
631 00:27:14 Sir, I was a captain under General Montgomery
632 00:27:18 Until he caught a bullet in the neck in Quebec
633 00:27:20 Well, in summary, I think that I could be of some assistance
634 00:27:24 I admire how you keep firing on the British from a distance
635 00:27:28 I have some questions, a couple of suggestions
636 00:27:30 on how to fight instead of fleeing west
637 00:27:33 - Yes? - Well--
638 00:27:33 Your Excellency, you wanted to see me?
639 00:27:36 Hamilton, come in. Have you met Burr?
640 00:27:38 - Yes, sir. We keep meeting. - We keep meeting.
641 00:27:39 As I was saying, sir,
642 00:27:41 I look forward to seeing your strategy play out.
643 00:27:43 - Burr? - Sir?
644 00:27:44 Close the door on your way out.
645 00:27:47 Have I done something wrong, sir?
646 00:27:49 On the contrary
647 00:27:50 I called you here because our odds are beyond scary
648 00:27:53 Your reputation precedes you
649 00:27:55 - But I have to laugh. - Sir?
650 00:27:56 Hamilton, how come no one can get you on their staff?
651 00:27:59 Sir--
652 00:27:59 Don't get me wrong. You're a young man of great renown
653 00:28:02 I know you stole British cannons when we were still downtown
654 00:28:05 Nathanael Greene and Henry Knox wanted to hire you
655 00:28:08 Yeah, to be their secretary. I don't think so.
656 00:28:10 - Now, why are you upset? - I'm not.
657 00:28:12 It's all right, you wanna fight. You've got a hunger
658 00:28:15 I was just like you when I was younger
659 00:28:17 Head full of fantasies of dying like a martyr?
660 00:28:20 Yes.
661 00:28:20 Dying is easy, young man, living is harder
662 00:28:24 - Why are you telling me this? - I'm being honest
663 00:28:26 I'm working with a third of what our Congress has promised
664 00:28:30 We are a powder keg about to explode
665 00:28:32 I need someone like you to lighten the load
666 00:28:34 So...
667 00:28:35 I am not throwing away my shot
668 00:28:41 Hey, yo, I'm just like my country
669 00:28:43 I'm young, scrappy and hungry
670 00:28:44 I am not throwing away my shot
671 00:28:46 Son, we are outgunned, outmanned
672 00:28:49 You need all the help you can get. I have some friends
673 00:28:51 Laurens, Mulligan, Marquis de Lafayette. Okay, what else?
674 00:28:54 Outnumbered, out-planned
675 00:28:55 We'll need some spies on the inside
676 00:28:57 Some king's men who might let some things slide
677 00:29:00 I'll write to Congress and tell 'em we need supplies
678 00:29:02 You rally the guys, master the element of surprise
679 00:29:06 I'll rise above my station, organize your information
680 00:29:09 Till we rise to the occasion of our new nation, sir!
681 00:29:12 Here comes the general
682 00:29:13 Rise up
683 00:29:14 What?
684 00:29:15 Here comes the general
685 00:29:16 Rise up
686 00:29:17 What?
687 00:29:18 Here comes the general
688 00:29:19 Rise up
689 00:29:20 What?
690 00:29:21 Here comes the general
691 00:29:24 What?
692 00:29:24 And his right-hand man!
693 00:29:37 How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore
694 00:29:40 go on and on, grow into more of a phenomenon?
695 00:29:45 Watch this obnoxious arrogant loudmouth bother
696 00:29:49 Be seated at the right hand of the father
697 00:29:52 Washington hires Hamilton right on sight
698 00:29:56 But Hamilton still wants to fight, not write
699 00:29:59 Now, Hamilton's skill with a quill is undeniable
700 00:30:03 But what do we have in common?
701 00:30:05 We're reliable with the...
702 00:30:07 Ladies
703 00:30:08 There are so many to deflower
704 00:30:10 Ladies
705 00:30:11 Looks! Proximity to power
706 00:30:14 Ladies
707 00:30:15 Oh, they delighted and distracted him
708 00:30:17 Martha Washington named her feral tomcat after him
709 00:30:21 That's true.
710 00:30:24 1780, a winter's ball
711 00:30:27 And the Schuyler sisters are the envy of all
712 00:30:30 Yo, if you could marry a sister, you're rich, son
713 00:30:35 Is it a question of "If", Burr, or which one?
714 00:30:46 I do, I do, I do, I do
715 00:30:55 Boy, you got me helpless
716 00:30:59 Look into your eyes and the sky's the limit
717 00:31:02 I'm helpless
718 00:31:05 Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
719 00:31:08 I have never been the type to try and grab the spotlight
720 00:31:11 We were at a revel with some rebels on a hot night
721 00:31:14 Laughin' at my sister as she's dazzling the room
722 00:31:17 Then you walked in and my heart went boom
723 00:31:20 Tryin' to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom
724 00:31:24 Everybody's dancin' and the band's top volume
725 00:31:27 Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine
726 00:31:29 Grab my sister and whisper "Yo, this one's mine"
727 00:31:34 My sister made her way across the room to you
728 00:31:37 And I got nervous, thinking, "What's she gonna do?"
729 00:31:40 She grabs you by the arm, I'm thinkin', "I'm through"
730 00:31:43 Then you look back at me and suddenly I'm helpless
731 00:31:47 Oh, look at those eyes, oh
732 00:31:48 Look into your eyes and the sky's the limit
733 00:31:50 I'm helpless, I know
734 00:31:54 Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
735 00:31:57 Helpless
736 00:31:58 I'm so into you
737 00:32:00 Look into your eyes and the sky's the limit
738 00:32:00 I am so into you
739 00:32:03 Helpless
740 00:32:05 I know I'm down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
741 00:32:09 - Where are you taking me? - I'm about to change your life.
742 00:32:13 Then by all means, lead the way.
743 00:32:15 Elizabeth Schuyler. It's a pleasure to meet you.
744 00:32:18 - Schuyler? - My sister.
745 00:32:20 Thank you for all your service.
746 00:32:22 If it takes fighting a war for us to meet,
747 00:32:23 it will have been worth it.
748 00:32:25 I'll leave you to it.
749 00:32:27 One week later, I'm writin' a letter nightly
750 00:32:30 Now my life gets better every letter that you write me
751 00:32:33 Laughin' at my sister 'cause she wants to form a harem
752 00:32:36 I'm just sayin', if you really loved me, you would share him
753 00:32:40 Two weeks later in the living room stressin'
754 00:32:43 My father, stone-faced while you're asking for his blessin'
755 00:32:46 I'm dying inside as you wine and dine
756 00:32:48 And I'm tryin' not to cry
757 00:32:50 'cause there's nothing that your mind can't do
758 00:32:53 My father makes his way across the room to you
759 00:32:56 I panic for a second, thinking, "We're through"
760 00:32:59 But then he shakes your hand and says, "Be true"
761 00:33:02 And you turn back to me, smiling and I'm...
762 00:33:04 Helpless
763 00:33:07 Look into your eyes and the sky's the limit
764 00:33:10 I'm helpless
765 00:33:13 Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
766 00:33:16 Helpless
767 00:33:17 He's mine
768 00:33:18 That boy is mine
769 00:33:19 Look into your eyes and the sky's the limit
770 00:33:22 I'm helpless
771 00:33:24 Helpless
772 00:33:25 Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
773 00:33:28 Eliza, I don't have a dollar to my name
774 00:33:31 An acre of land, a troop to command, a dollop of fame
775 00:33:34 All I have's my honor, a tolerance for pain
776 00:33:37 A couple of college credits and my top-notch brain
777 00:33:40 Insane, your family brings out a different side of me
778 00:33:43 Peggy confides in me, Angelica tried to take a bite of me
779 00:33:46 No stress, my love for you is never in doubt
780 00:33:49 We'll get a little place in Harlem and we'll figure it out
781 00:33:52 I've been livin' without a family since I was a child
782 00:33:55 My father left, my mother died
783 00:33:57 I grew up buck-wild
784 00:33:58 But I'll never forget my mother's face, that was real
785 00:34:01 And long as I'm alive, Eliza Swear to God
786 00:34:04 You'll never feel that
787 00:34:05 Helpless
788 00:34:05 I do, I do, I do, I do
789 00:34:07 Eliza
790 00:34:08 Helpless
791 00:34:08 I do, I do, I do, I do
792 00:34:09 I've never felt so...
793 00:34:11 Helpless
794 00:34:14 Down for the count And I'm drownin' in 'em
795 00:34:15 I'm down for the count, I'm...
796 00:34:16 Yo, my life is gonna be fine, 'Cause Eliza's in it
797 00:34:17 Helpless
798 00:34:20 Helpless
799 00:34:23 Helpless
800 00:34:20 I look into your eyes and the sky's the limit
801 00:34:26 Down for the count and I'm drownin' in 'em
802 00:34:35 In New York, you can be a new man
803 00:34:49 Helpless
804 00:35:00 All right, all right. That's what I'm talking about!
805 00:35:05 Now, everyone, give it up for the maid of honor,
806 00:35:09 Angelica Schuyler!
807 00:35:14 A toast to the groom
808 00:35:15 To the groom, to the groom, to the groom
809 00:35:18 To the bride
810 00:35:19 To the bride, to the bride
811 00:35:22 From your sister
812 00:35:23 Angelica
813 00:35:26 Who's always by your side
814 00:35:28 By your side
815 00:35:30 To your union
816 00:35:31 To the Union, to the revolution
817 00:35:34 And the hope that you provide
818 00:35:36 You provide, you provide
819 00:35:37 And may you always
820 00:35:40 Always
821 00:35:41 Be satisfied
822 00:35:44 Rewind
823 00:35:49 Helpless
824 00:35:51 Skies
825 00:35:55 Drowning
826 00:35:57 Rewind
827 00:35:59 I remember that night, I just might
828 00:36:01 Rewind
829 00:36:03 I remember that night-- I remember that--
830 00:36:07 I remember that night
831 00:36:08 I just might regret that night for the rest of my days
832 00:36:11 I remember those soldier boys
833 00:36:12 tripping over themselves to win our praise
834 00:36:15 I remember that dreamlike candlelight
835 00:36:17 Like a dream that you can't quite place
836 00:36:19 But, Alexander
837 00:36:20 I'll never forget the first time I saw your face
838 00:36:24 I have never been the same
839 00:36:26 Intelligent eyes in a hunger-pang frame
840 00:36:30 And when you said "Hi," I forgot my dang name
841 00:36:33 Set my heart aflame, every part aflame
842 00:36:36 This is not a game
843 00:36:38 You strike me as a woman who has never been satisfied
844 00:36:42 I'm sure I don't know what you mean, you forget yourself
845 00:36:46 You're like me, I'm never satisfied
846 00:36:50 Is that right?
847 00:36:52 I have never been satisfied
848 00:36:55 My name is Angelica Schuyler
849 00:36:58 Alexander Hamilton
850 00:37:00 Where's your family from?
851 00:37:02 Unimportant, there's a million things I haven't done
852 00:37:06 But just you wait, just you wait...
853 00:37:09 So, so, so, so this is what it feels like to match wits
854 00:37:11 With someone at your level, what the hell is the catch?
855 00:37:13 It's the feeling of freedom of seeing the light
856 00:37:15 It's Ben Franklin with a key and a kite
857 00:37:17 You see it, right?
858 00:37:17 The conversation lasted two minutes, maybe three minutes
859 00:37:19 Everything we said in total agreement
860 00:37:21 It's a dream and it's a bit of a dance
861 00:37:23 A bit of a posture, it's a bit of a stance
862 00:37:25 He's a bit of a flirt, but I'mma give it a chance
863 00:37:27 I asked about his family, did you see his answer?
864 00:37:29 His hands started fidgeting, he looked askance
865 00:37:31 He's penniless, he's flying by the seat of his pants
866 00:37:33 Handsome, boy, does he know it
867 00:37:35 Peach fuzz, and he can't even grow it
868 00:37:37 I wanna take him far away from this place
869 00:37:38 Then I turn and see my sister's face and she is...
870 00:37:41 Helpless
871 00:37:42 And I know she is...
872 00:37:44 Helpless
873 00:37:45 And her eyes are just...
874 00:37:48 Helpless
875 00:37:50 And I realize three fundamental truths at the exact same time
876 00:37:56 - Where are you taking me? - I'm about to change your life.
877 00:37:59 Then by all means, lead the way.
878 00:38:02 Number one
879 00:38:02 I'm a girl in a world in which my only job is to marry rich
880 00:38:06 My father has no sons,
881 00:38:07 so I'm the one who has to social climb for one
882 00:38:10 'Cause I'm the oldest and the wittiest
883 00:38:11 And the gossip in New York City is insidious
884 00:38:14 And Alexander is penniless
885 00:38:15 Ha, that doesn't mean I want him any less
886 00:38:18 Elizabeth Schuyler. It's a pleasure to meet you.
887 00:38:20 - Schuyler? - My sister.
888 00:38:24 Number two
889 00:38:24 He's after me, 'Cause I'm a Schuyler sister
890 00:38:26 That elevates his status
891 00:38:28 I'd have to be naive to set that aside, maybe that is why
892 00:38:32 I introduced him to Eliza, now that's his bride
893 00:38:36 Nice going, Angelica, he was right
894 00:38:38 You will never be satisfied
895 00:38:40 Thank you for all your service.
896 00:38:41 If it takes fighting a war for us to meet,
897 00:38:43 it will have been worth it.
898 00:38:44 I'll leave you to it.
899 00:38:47 Number three
900 00:38:48 I know my sister Like I know my own mind
901 00:38:51 You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind
902 00:38:55 If I tell her that I love him, she'd be silently resigned
903 00:38:59 He'd be mine, she would say, "I'm fine"
904 00:39:01 She'd be lying
905 00:39:03 But when I fantasize at night, it's Alexander's eyes
906 00:39:08 As I romanticize what might have been
907 00:39:11 If I hadn't sized him up so quickly
908 00:39:17 At least my dear Eliza's his wife
909 00:39:23 At least I keep his eyes in my life
910 00:39:32 To the groom
911 00:39:33 To the groom, to the groom
912 00:39:36 To the bride
913 00:39:37 To the bride, to the bride
914 00:39:39 From your sister
915 00:39:41 Angelica, Angelica
916 00:39:43 Who's always by your side
917 00:39:45 By your side
918 00:39:47 To your union
919 00:39:49 To the Union, to the revolution
920 00:39:51 And the hope that you provide
921 00:39:53 You provide, you provide
922 00:39:55 May you always...
923 00:39:57 Always
924 00:39:59 Be satisfied
925 00:39:59 Be satisfied
926 00:40:02 And I know...
927 00:40:06 She'll be happy as his bride
928 00:40:10 And I know
929 00:40:15 He will never be satisfied
930 00:40:17 I will never be satisfied
931 00:40:39 I may not live to see our glory
932 00:40:43 I may not live to see our glory
933 00:40:46 But I've seen wonders great and small
934 00:40:48 I've seen wonders great and small
935 00:40:52 'Cause if the tomcat can get married
936 00:40:54 If Alexander can get married
937 00:40:57 There's hope for our ass, after all
938 00:41:00 Raise a glass to freedom
939 00:41:03 Something you will never see again
940 00:41:06 No matter what she tells you
941 00:41:09 Let's have another round tonight
942 00:41:12 Raise a glass to the four of us
943 00:41:15 To the newly not-poor of us
944 00:41:18 We'll tell the story of tonight
945 00:41:21 Let's have another round
946 00:41:23 - Well, if it isn't Aaron Burr - Sir.
947 00:41:25 - I didn't think that you would make it - To be sure
948 00:41:28 - Burr. - I came to say congratulations
949 00:41:30 - Spit a verse, Burr - I see the whole gang is here
950 00:41:33 You are the worst, Burr
951 00:41:35 Ignore them Congrats to you, Lieutenant Colonel
952 00:41:37 I wish I had your command
953 00:41:39 Instead of manning George's journal
954 00:41:40 - No, you don't - Yes, I do
955 00:41:42 Now, be sensible
956 00:41:43 From what I hear, you've made yourself indispensable
957 00:41:46 Well, well, I heard
958 00:41:49 You've got a special someone on the side, Burr
959 00:41:51 Is that so?
960 00:41:52 What are you tryin' to hide, Burr?
961 00:41:54 - I should go. - No, these guys should go.
962 00:41:57 - Leave us alone. - Man.
963 00:41:59 It's all right, Burr
964 00:42:00 I wish you'd brought this girl with you tonight, Burr
965 00:42:03 You're very kind, but I'm afraid it's unlawful, sir.
966 00:42:06 - What do you mean? - She's married.
967 00:42:08 - I see. - She's married to a British officer.
968 00:42:10 Oh, shit.
969 00:42:11 Congrats again, Alexander
970 00:42:15 Smile more
971 00:42:18 See you on the other side of the war
972 00:42:21 I will never understand you
973 00:42:24 If you love this woman, go get her
974 00:42:27 What are you waiting for?
975 00:42:29 See you on the other side of the war
976 00:42:32 I'll see you on the other side of the war
977 00:42:46 Theodosia writes me a letter every day
978 00:42:51 I'm keeping her bed warm while her husband is away
979 00:42:56 He's on the British side in Georgia
980 00:42:59 He's trying to keep the colonies in line
981 00:43:01 Well, he can keep all of Georgia
982 00:43:03 Theodosia, she's mine
983 00:43:06 Love doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints
984 00:43:10 It takes and it takes and it takes and we keep loving anyway
985 00:43:13 We laugh and we cry and we break
986 00:43:15 And we make our mistakes
987 00:43:16 And if there's a reason I'm by her side
988 00:43:19 When so many have tried
989 00:43:21 Then I'm willing to wait for it
990 00:43:23 I'm willing to wait for it
991 00:43:27 My grandfather was a fire and brimstone preacher
992 00:43:32 But there are things that the homilies and hymns won't teach ya
993 00:43:37 My mother was a genius
994 00:43:39 Genius
995 00:43:39 My father commanded respect
996 00:43:41 Respect
997 00:43:42 When they died they left no instructions
998 00:43:45 Just a legacy to protect
999 00:43:47 Death doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints
1000 00:43:50 It takes and it takes and it takes and we keep living anyway
1001 00:43:54 We rise and we fall and we break
1002 00:43:56 And we make our mistakes
1003 00:43:57 And if there's a reason I'm still alive
1004 00:44:00 When everyone who loves me has died
1005 00:44:02 I'm willing to wait for it
1006 00:44:03 Wait for it
1007 00:44:04 I'm willing to wait for it
1008 00:44:08 Wait for it
1009 00:44:08 Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it
1010 00:44:10 I am the one thing in life I can control
1011 00:44:13 Wait for it, wait for it wait for it, wait for it
1012 00:44:16 I am inimitable, I am an original
1013 00:44:18 Wait for it, wait for it wait for it, wait for it
1014 00:44:21 I'm not falling behind or running late
1015 00:44:23 Wait for it, wait for it wait for it, wait for it
1016 00:44:26 I'm not standing still I am lying in wait
1017 00:44:31 Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb
1018 00:44:36 He has something to prove
1019 00:44:37 He has nothing to lose
1020 00:44:41 Hamilton's pace is relentless
1021 00:44:43 He wastes no time
1022 00:44:46 What is it like in his shoes?
1023 00:44:53 Hamilton doesn't hesitate
1024 00:44:55 He exhibits no restraint
1025 00:44:57 He takes and he takes and he takes
1026 00:45:00 And he keeps winning anyway
1027 00:45:03 Changes the game
1028 00:45:04 Plays and he raises the stakes
1029 00:45:06 And if there's a reason he seems to thrive
1030 00:45:09 When so few survive
1031 00:45:10 Then, goddamn it, I'm willing to wait for it
1032 00:45:12 Wait for it, wait for it
1033 00:45:13 I'm willing to wait for it
1034 00:45:17 Life doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints
1035 00:45:20 It takes and it takes and it takes
1036 00:45:22 And we keep living anyway
1037 00:45:24 We rise
1038 00:45:24 We rise and we fall and we break
1039 00:45:26 And we make our mistakes
1040 00:45:26 We fall
1041 00:45:27 And if there's a reason I'm still alive
1042 00:45:29 When so many have died
1043 00:45:31 Then I'm willing to--
1044 00:45:36 Wait for it
1045 00:45:38 Wait for it
1046 00:46:03 Stay alive
1047 00:46:09 Stay alive
1048 00:46:15 I have never seen the general so despondent
1049 00:46:18 I have taken over writing all his correspondence
1050 00:46:21 Congress writes "George, attack the British forces"
1051 00:46:24 I shoot back "We have resorted to eating our horses"
1052 00:46:27 Local merchants deny us equipment, assistance
1053 00:46:30 They only take British money
1054 00:46:32 So sing a song of sixpence
1055 00:46:34 - Cavalry's not coming. - But, sir--
1056 00:46:35 Alex, listen. There's only one way for us to win this.
1057 00:46:39 Provoke outrage, outright.
1058 00:46:42 That's right.
1059 00:46:43 Don't engage, strike by night
1060 00:46:45 Remain relentless till their troops take flight
1061 00:46:48 Make it impossible to justify the cost of the fight
1062 00:46:51 - Outrun - Outrun
1063 00:46:53 - Outlast - Outlast
1064 00:46:55 Hit 'em quick, get out fast
1065 00:46:57 Stay alive until this horror show is past
1066 00:47:00 We're gonna fly a lot of flags half-mast
1067 00:47:03 Raise a glass
1068 00:47:04 I go back to New York and my apprenticeship
1069 00:47:06 I ask for French aid, I pray that France has sent a ship
1070 00:47:10 I stay at work with Hamilton
1071 00:47:11 We write essays against slavery
1072 00:47:13 And every day's a test of our camaraderie and bravery
1073 00:47:15 So we cut supply lines
1074 00:47:17 We steal contraband
1075 00:47:19 We pick and choose our battles
1076 00:47:20 And places to take a stand
1077 00:47:22 And every day "Sir, entrust me with a command"
1078 00:47:25 - And every day - No.
1079 00:47:26 He dismisses me out of hand
1080 00:47:27 Stay alive
1081 00:47:28 Instead of me he promotes
1082 00:47:30 Charles Lee
1083 00:47:31 Makes him second-in-command
1084 00:47:32 I'm a general. Whee!
1085 00:47:34 Yeah, he's not the choice I would have gone with
1086 00:47:37 He shits the bed at the Battle of Monmouth
1087 00:47:39 - Everyone, attack - Retreat
1088 00:47:41 - Attack - Retreat
1089 00:47:43 What are you doing, Lee? Get back on your feet
1090 00:47:46 - There's so many of them - I'm sorry, is this not your speed?
1091 00:47:49 - Hamilton! - Ready, sir!
1092 00:47:50 - Have Lafayette take the lead. - Yes, sir!
1093 00:47:52 A thousand soldiers die In 100-degree heat
1094 00:47:55 As we snatch a stalemate from the jaws of defeat
1095 00:47:58 Charles Lee was left behind without a pot to piss in
1096 00:48:01 He started saying this to anybody who would listen
1097 00:48:04 Washington cannot be left alone to his devices
1098 00:48:08 Indecisive, from crisis to crisis
1099 00:48:11 The best thing he could do for the revolution
1100 00:48:13 Is turn and go back to planting tobacco in Mount Vernon
1101 00:48:17 Don't do a thing
1102 00:48:18 History will prove him wrong
1103 00:48:20 - But, sir-- - We have a war to fight
1104 00:48:22 Let's move along
1105 00:48:23 Strong words from Lee
1106 00:48:24 Someone ought to hold him to it
1107 00:48:26 I can't disobey direct orders
1108 00:48:29 Then I'll do it.
1109 00:48:31 Alexander, you're the closest friend I've got.
1110 00:48:33 Laurens, do not throw away your shot.
1111 00:48:40 One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
1112 00:48:44 It's the ten duel commandments
1113 00:48:47 It's the ten duel commandments
1114 00:48:52 Number one
1115 00:48:53 The challenge, demand satisfaction
1116 00:48:55 If they apologize no need for further action
1117 00:48:58 Number two
1118 00:48:59 If they don't, grab a friend, hat's your second
1119 00:49:01 Your lieutenant
1120 00:49:02 When there's reckoning to be reckoned
1121 00:49:04 Number three
1122 00:49:05 Have your seconds meet face-to-face
1123 00:49:08 Negotiate a peace
1124 00:49:09 Or negotiate a time and place
1125 00:49:11 This is commonplace
1126 00:49:12 Especially between recruits
1127 00:49:13 Most disputes die, and no one shoots
1128 00:49:16 Number four
1129 00:49:17 If they don't reach a peace
1130 00:49:19 That's all right
1131 00:49:20 Time to get some pistols
1132 00:49:21 And a doctor on site
1133 00:49:23 You pay him in advance
1134 00:49:24 You treat him with civility
1135 00:49:26 You have him turn around
1136 00:49:27 So he can have deniability
1137 00:49:29 Five
1138 00:49:30 Duel before the sun is in the sky
1139 00:49:32 Pick a place to die where it's high and dry
1140 00:49:35 Number six
1141 00:49:36 Leave a note for your next of kin
1142 00:49:38 Tell 'em where you been
1143 00:49:39 Pray that hell or heaven lets you in
1144 00:49:41 Seven
1145 00:49:42 Confess your sins
1146 00:49:43 Ready for the moment of adrenaline
1147 00:49:45 When you finally face your opponent
1148 00:49:47 Number eight
1149 00:49:48 Your last chance to negotiate
1150 00:49:51 Send in your seconds see if they can set the record straight
1151 00:49:54 - Alexander - Aaron Burr, sir
1152 00:49:56 Can we agree that duels are dumb and immature?
1153 00:49:59 Sure, but your man has to answer for his words, Burr
1154 00:50:03 With his life? We both know that's absurd, sir
1155 00:50:05 Hang on, how many men died
1156 00:50:07 because Lee was inexperienced and ruinous?
1157 00:50:10 Okay, so we're doing this
1158 00:50:12 Number nine!
1159 00:50:13 Look 'em in the eye, aim no higher
1160 00:50:15 Summon all the courage you require
1161 00:50:18 Then count
1162 00:50:19 One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
1163 00:50:22 - Number! - Ten paces!
1164 00:50:24 Fire!
1165 00:50:27 Lee, do you yield?
1166 00:50:28 You shot him in the side Yes, he yields
1167 00:50:30 - I'm satisfied! - Yo, we gotta clear the field
1168 00:50:32 Go, we won
1169 00:50:34 Here comes the general!
1170 00:50:35 - This should be fun - What is the meaning of this?
1171 00:50:38 Mr. Burr, get a medic for the general
1172 00:50:40 Yes, sir.
1173 00:50:41 Lee, you will never agree with me
1174 00:50:43 But believe me
1175 00:50:43 These young men don't speak for me
1176 00:50:45 - Thank you for your service - Let's ride
1177 00:50:48 - Hamilton. - Sir!
1178 00:50:49 Meet me inside.
1179 00:50:51 Meet him inside, meet him inside
1180 00:50:54 Meet him inside, meet him, meet him inside
1181 00:50:56 - Son-- - Don't call me son.
1182 00:50:58 This war is hard enough without infighting.
1183 00:51:00 Lee called you out.
1184 00:51:01 - We called his bluff. - You solve nothing.
1185 00:51:03 You aggravate our allies to the south.
1186 00:51:04 You're absolutely right.
1187 00:51:05 John should have shot him in the mouth.
1188 00:51:07 That would've shut him up.
1189 00:51:08 - Son-- - I'm not your son--
1190 00:51:09 Watch your tone.
1191 00:51:10 I am not a maiden in need of defending,
1192 00:51:12 - I am grown! - Charles Lee, Thomas Conway,
1193 00:51:13 these men take your name and they rake it through the mud.
1194 00:51:16 My name's been through a lot I can take it.
1195 00:51:18 Well, I don't have your name,
1196 00:51:19 I don't have your titles, I don't have your land.
1197 00:51:21 - But if you-- - No.
1198 00:51:22 If you gave me command of a battalion, a group of men to lead,
1199 00:51:25 I could fly above my station after the war.
1200 00:51:28 Or you could die, and we need you alive.
1201 00:51:30 I am more than willing to die!
1202 00:51:32 Your wife needs you alive, son. I need you alive!
1203 00:51:34 Call me son one more time!
1204 00:51:40 Go home, Alexander.
1205 00:51:43 That's an order from your commander.
1206 00:51:46 Sir--
1207 00:51:46 Go home!
1208 00:52:00 Look around, look around
1209 00:52:02 At how lucky we are to be alive right now
1210 00:52:07 Look around, look around
1211 00:52:12 How long have you known?
1212 00:52:13 - A month or so - Eliza
1213 00:52:15 You should have told me
1214 00:52:17 I wrote to the general a month ago
1215 00:52:19 - No - I begged him to send you home
1216 00:52:22 You should have told me
1217 00:52:24 I'm not sorry
1218 00:52:27 - I knew you'd fight Until the war was won - The war's not done
1219 00:52:31 But you deserve a chance to meet your son
1220 00:52:34 Look around, look around
1221 00:52:37 At how lucky we are to be alive right now
1222 00:52:41 Will you relish being a poor man's wife?
1223 00:52:44 Unable to provide for your life
1224 00:52:47 I relish being your wife
1225 00:52:51 Look around, look around
1226 00:52:56 Look at where you are
1227 00:53:00 Look at where you started
1228 00:53:02 The fact that you're alive is a miracle
1229 00:53:06 Just stay alive, that would be enough
1230 00:53:10 And if this child
1231 00:53:14 Shares a fraction of your smile
1232 00:53:17 Or a fragment of your mind
1233 00:53:20 Look out, world
1234 00:53:21 That would be enough
1235 00:53:25 I don't pretend to know
1236 00:53:28 The challenges you're facing
1237 00:53:31 The worlds you keep erasing
1238 00:53:34 And creating in your mind
1239 00:53:38 But I'm not afraid
1240 00:53:42 I know who I married
1241 00:53:45 So long as you come home at the end of the day
1242 00:53:50 That would be enough
1243 00:53:52 We don't need a legacy
1244 00:53:56 We don't need money
1245 00:53:59 If I could grant you peace of mind
1246 00:54:03 If you could let me inside your heart
1247 00:54:06 Oh, let me be a part of the narrative
1248 00:54:10 In the story they will write someday
1249 00:54:13 Let this moment be the first chapter
1250 00:54:17 Where you decide to stay
1251 00:54:25 And I could be enough
1252 00:54:28 And we could be enough
1253 00:54:32 That would be enough
1254 00:54:51 How does a ragtag volunteer army in need of a shower
1255 00:54:56 Somehow defeat a global superpower?
1256 00:54:59 How do we emerge victorious from the quagmire?
1257 00:55:03 Leave the battlefield waving Betsy Ross's flag higher?
1258 00:55:07 Yo, turns out we have a secret weapon
1259 00:55:09 An immigrant you know and love who's unafraid to step in
1260 00:55:13 He's constantly confusing, confounding the British henchmen
1261 00:55:17 Everyone give it up for America's favorite fighting Frenchman
1262 00:55:21 Lafayette
1263 00:55:22 I'm takin' this horse by the reins
1264 00:55:23 Makin' redcoats redder with bloodstains
1265 00:55:24 Lafayette
1266 00:55:25 And I'm never gonna stop until I make 'em drop or burn 'em up
1267 00:55:27 And scatter their remains, I'm--
1268 00:55:28 Lafayette
1269 00:55:29 Watch me engagin' 'em, escapin' 'em, enragin' 'em, I'm--
1270 00:55:31 Lafayette
1271 00:55:32 I go to France for more funds
1272 00:55:33 Lafayette
1273 00:55:34 I come back with more guns and ships
1274 00:55:36 And so the balance shifts
1275 00:55:38 We rendezvous with Rochambeau, consolidate their gifts
1276 00:55:41 We can end this war at Yorktown
1277 00:55:44 Cut them off at sea
1278 00:55:45 But for this to succeed, there is someone else we need
1279 00:55:48 I know
1280 00:55:49 Hamilton
1281 00:55:49 Sir, he knows what to do in a trench
1282 00:55:51 Ingenuitive and fluent in French, I mean
1283 00:55:52 Hamilton
1284 00:55:53 You're gonna have to use him eventually
1285 00:55:54 What's he gonna do on the bench? I mean
1286 00:55:56 Hamilton
1287 00:55:56 No one has more resilience or matches
1288 00:55:58 My practical tactical brilliance
1289 00:55:59 Hamilton
1290 00:56:00 You want to fight for your land back?
1291 00:56:01 Hamilton
1292 00:56:02 I need my right-hand man back
1293 00:56:03 Hamilton
1294 00:56:04 Get your right-hand man back
1295 00:56:05 Hamilton
1296 00:56:05 You know you gotta get your right-hand man back
1297 00:56:07 Hamilton
1298 00:56:07 Gotta put some thought into the letter but the sooner the better
1299 00:56:09 Hamilton
1300 00:56:09 To get your right-hand man back
1301 00:56:10 Alexander Hamilton
1302 00:56:14 Troops are waiting in the field for you
1303 00:56:17 If you join us right now
1304 00:56:19 Together we can turn the tide
1305 00:56:25 Oh, Alexander Hamilton
1306 00:56:28 I have soldiers that will yield for you
1307 00:56:32 If we manage to get this right
1308 00:56:35 They'll surrender by early light
1309 00:56:39 The world will never be the same
1310 00:56:46 Alexander
1311 00:57:03 I was younger than you are now
1312 00:57:06 When I was given my first command
1313 00:57:10 I led my men straight into a massacre
1314 00:57:15 I witnessed their deaths firsthand
1315 00:57:18 I made every mistake
1316 00:57:22 And felt the shame rise in me
1317 00:57:26 And even now I lie awake
1318 00:57:29 Knowing history has its eyes on me
1319 00:57:42 History has its eyes on me
1320 00:57:57 Let me tell you what I wish I'd known
1321 00:58:00 When I was young and dreamed of glory
1322 00:58:04 You have no control
1323 00:58:05 Who lives? Who dies? Who tells your story?
1324 00:58:10 I know that we can win
1325 00:58:13 I know that greatness lies in you
1326 00:58:17 But remember, from here on in
1327 00:58:20 History has its eyes on you
1328 00:58:33 History has its eyes on you
1329 00:58:49 The Battle of Yorktown.
1330 00:58:53 1781.
1331 00:58:55 - Monsieur Hamilton - Monsieur Lafayette
1332 00:58:58 - In command, where you belong - How you say? No sweat
1333 00:59:00 We're finally on the field, we've had quite a run
1334 00:59:03 Immigrants
1335 00:59:04 We get the job done
1336 00:59:06 - So, what happens if we win? - I go back to France
1337 00:59:09 I bring freedom to my people if I am given the chance
1338 00:59:11 We'll be with you when you do
1339 00:59:13 Go, lead your men
1340 00:59:14 - See you on the other side - Till we meet again, let's go!
1341 00:59:16 I am not throwing away my shot!
1342 00:59:19 I am not throwing away my shot!
1343 00:59:21 Hey, yo, I'm just like my country I'm young, scrappy and hungry
1344 00:59:24 And I'm not throwing away my shot
1345 00:59:26 I am not throwing away my shot
1346 00:59:28 Till the world turns upside down
1347 00:59:31 Till the world turns upside down
1348 00:59:36 I've imagined death so much it feels more like a memory
1349 00:59:38 This is where it gets me, on my feet, the enemy ahead of me
1350 00:59:41 If this is the end of me, at least I have a friend with me
1351 00:59:43 Weapon in my hand, a command, and my men with me
1352 00:59:46 Then I remember my Eliza's expecting me
1353 00:59:48 Not only that, my Eliza's expecting
1354 00:59:51 We gotta go, gotta get the job done
1355 00:59:53 Gotta start a new nation, gotta meet my son
1356 00:59:55 - Take the bullets out your gun - What?
1357 00:59:57 - The bullets out your gun - What?
1358 00:59:58 We move undercover
1359 00:59:59 And we move as one
1360 01:00:00 Through the night, we have one shot to live another day
1361 01:00:03 We cannot let a stray gunshot give us away
1362 01:00:05 We will fight up close, seize the moment and stay in it
1363 01:00:08 It's either that or meet the business end of a bayonet
1364 01:00:10 The code word is, "Rochambeau"
1365 01:00:12 - Dig me? - Rochambeau
1366 01:00:13 You have your orders now, go, men, go
1367 01:00:15 And so the American experiment begins
1368 01:00:18 With my friends all scattered to the winds
1369 01:00:19 Laurens is in South Carolina, redefining bravery
1370 01:00:23 We'll never be free Until we end slavery
1371 01:00:25 When we finally drive the British away
1372 01:00:27 Lafayette is there waiting
1373 01:00:29 In Chesapeake Bay
1374 01:00:30 How did we know that this plan would work?
1375 01:00:32 We had a spy on the inside, that's right
1376 01:00:34 Hercules Mulligan!
1377 01:00:36 A tailor spying on the British government
1378 01:00:37 I take their measurements, information
1379 01:00:39 And then I smuggle it up
1380 01:00:40 To my brother's revolutionary covenant
1381 01:00:42 I'm running with the Sons of Liberty and I am loving it!
1382 01:00:45 See, that's what happens when you up against the ruffians
1383 01:00:47 We in the shit now, somebody's gotta shovel it
1384 01:00:50 Hercules Mulligan, I need no introduction
1385 01:00:52 When you knock me down I get the fuck back up again!
1386 01:01:02 Left! Right! Hold!
1387 01:01:05 Go!
1388 01:01:07 What? What? What?
1389 01:01:24 After a week of fighting
1390 01:01:25 A young man in a red coat stands on a parapet
1391 01:01:29 We lower our guns as he frantically waves a white handkerchief
1392 01:01:34 And just like that, it's over.
1393 01:01:36 We tend to our wounded, we count our dead.
1394 01:01:38 Black and white soldiers wonder alike
1395 01:01:40 if this really means freedom.
1396 01:01:42 Not yet.
1397 01:01:44 We negotiate the terms of surrender.
1398 01:01:47 I see George Washington smile.
1399 01:01:49 We escort their men out of Yorktown.
1400 01:01:52 They stagger home single file.
1401 01:01:54 Tens of thousands of people flood the streets.
1402 01:01:57 There are screams and church bells ringing,
1403 01:01:59 and as our fallen foes retreat,
1404 01:02:01 I hear the drinking song they're singing.
1405 01:02:04 The world turned upside down
1406 01:02:08 The world turned upside down
1407 01:02:13 The world turned upside down
1408 01:02:18 The world turned upside down
1409 01:02:22 Down, down, down, down
1410 01:02:26 Freedom for America! Freedom for France!
1411 01:02:28 Down, down, down
1412 01:02:30 Gotta start a new nation, gotta meet my son
1413 01:02:33 Down, down, down
1414 01:02:35 We won! We won!
1415 01:02:36 We won! We won!
1416 01:02:38 The world turned upside down
1417 01:03:14 They say
1418 01:03:16 The price of my war's not a price that they're willing to pay
1419 01:03:22 Insane
1420 01:03:25 You cheat with the French
1421 01:03:26 Now I'm fighting with France and with Spain
1422 01:03:30 I'm so blue
1423 01:03:33 I thought that we made an arrangement when you went away
1424 01:03:38 You were mine to subdue
1425 01:03:42 Well, even despite our estrangement
1426 01:03:45 I've got a small query for you
1427 01:03:53 What comes next? You've been freed
1428 01:03:57 Do you know how hard it is to lead?
1429 01:04:01 You're on your own
1430 01:04:03 Awesome, wow
1431 01:04:05 Do you have a clue what happens now?
1432 01:04:09 Oceans rise, empires fall
1433 01:04:13 It's much harder when it's all your call
1434 01:04:17 All alone across the sea
1435 01:04:22 When your people say they hate you
1436 01:04:26 Don't come crawling back to me
1437 01:04:44 You're on your own
1438 01:05:10 Dear Theodosia, what to say to you
1439 01:05:15 You have my eyes you have your mother's name
1440 01:05:18 When you came into the world, you cried
1441 01:05:22 And it broke my heart
1442 01:05:27 I'm dedicating every day to you
1443 01:05:32 Domestic life was never quite my style
1444 01:05:35 When you smile
1445 01:05:38 You knock me out, I fall apart
1446 01:05:41 And I thought I was so smart
1447 01:05:44 You will come of age with our young nation
1448 01:05:48 We'll bleed and fight for you
1449 01:05:50 We'll make it right for you
1450 01:05:52 If we lay a strong enough foundation
1451 01:05:56 We'll pass it on to you
1452 01:05:58 We'll give the world to you and you'll blow us all away
1453 01:06:02 Someday, someday
1454 01:06:09 Yeah, you'll blow us all away
1455 01:06:11 Someday, someday
1456 01:06:21 Oh, Philip, when you smile I am undone
1457 01:06:25 My son
1458 01:06:27 Look at my son
1459 01:06:30 Pride is not the word I'm looking for
1460 01:06:33 There is so much more inside me now
1461 01:06:38 Oh, Philip, you outshine the morning sun
1462 01:06:42 My son
1463 01:06:44 When you smile
1464 01:06:48 I fall apart
1465 01:06:50 And I thought I was so smart
1466 01:06:54 My father wasn't around
1467 01:06:56 My father wasn't around
1468 01:06:59 Swear that I'll be around for you
1469 01:07:00 I'll be around for you
1470 01:07:03 I'll do whatever it takes
1471 01:07:06 I'll make a million mistakes
1472 01:07:08 I'll make the world safe and sound for you
1473 01:07:14 You'll come of age with our young nation
1474 01:07:18 We'll bleed and fight for you
1475 01:07:20 We'll make it right for you
1476 01:07:22 If we lay a strong enough foundation
1477 01:07:26 We'll pass it on to you
1478 01:07:29 We'll give the world to you
1479 01:07:30 And you'll blow us all away
1480 01:07:33 Someday, someday
1481 01:07:39 Yeah, you'll blow us all away
1482 01:07:42 Someday, someday
1483 01:07:52 I may not live to see our glory
1484 01:07:56 Alexander, there's a letter for you.
1485 01:07:58 It's from John Laurens. I'll read it later.
1486 01:08:00 But I will gladly join the fight
1487 01:08:02 No. It's from his father.
1488 01:08:05 His father?
1489 01:08:06 And when our children tell our story
1490 01:08:10 Will you read it for me?
1491 01:08:12 They'll tell the story of tonight
1492 01:08:18 "On Tuesday the 27th,
1493 01:08:20 my son was killed in a gunfight
1494 01:08:22 against British troops retreating from South Carolina.
1495 01:08:27 The war was already over.
1496 01:08:30 As you know, John dreamed
1497 01:08:32 of emancipating and recruiting 3,000 men
1498 01:08:35 for the first all-black military regiment.
1499 01:08:39 His dream of freedom for these men dies with him."
1500 01:08:44 Tomorrow there'll be more of us
1501 01:08:51 Alexander, are you all right?
1502 01:08:56 I have so much work to do.
1503 01:08:59 After the war I went back to New York
1504 01:09:01 A-After the war I went back to New York
1505 01:09:04 I finished up my studies and I practiced law
1506 01:09:06 I practiced law, Burr worked next door
1507 01:09:09 Even though we started at the very same time
1508 01:09:12 Alexander Hamilton began to climb
1509 01:09:14 How to account for his rise to the top?
1510 01:09:17 Man, the man is nonstop
1511 01:09:20 Gentlemen of the jury, I'm curious, bear with me
1512 01:09:23 Are you aware that we're making history?
1513 01:09:25 This is the first murder trial of our brand-new nation
1514 01:09:28 The liberty behind deliberation
1515 01:09:30 Nonstop
1516 01:09:30 I intend to prove beyond
1517 01:09:32 a shadow of a doubt with my assistant counsel--
1518 01:09:34 Co-counsel. Hamilton, sit down
1519 01:09:35 Our client, Levi Weeks, is innocent
1520 01:09:37 Call your first witness
1521 01:09:38 That was all you had to say
1522 01:09:39 Okay, one more thing--
1523 01:09:41 Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?
1524 01:09:43 Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?
1525 01:09:46 Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?
1526 01:09:49 Soon that attitude may be your doom
1527 01:09:51 Why do you write like you're running out of time?
1528 01:09:54 Write day and night like you're running out of time
1529 01:09:56 Every day you fight like you're running out of time
1530 01:09:59 Keep on fighting, in the meantime...
1531 01:10:01 Nonstop
1532 01:10:02 Corruption's such an old song that we can sing along in harmony
1533 01:10:05 And nowhere is it stronger than in Albany
1534 01:10:07 This colony's economy's increasingly stalling
1535 01:10:09 And honestly, that's why public service seems to be calling me
1536 01:10:11 He's just nonstop
1537 01:10:12 I practiced the law, I practically perfected it
1538 01:10:15 I've seen injustice in the world and I've corrected it
1539 01:10:17 Now for a strong central democracy
1540 01:10:19 If not, then I'll be Socrates
1541 01:10:20 Throwing verbal rocks at these mediocrities
1542 01:10:22 Hamilton, at the Constitutional Convention
1543 01:10:25 I was chosen for the Constitutional Convention
1544 01:10:28 There as a New York junior delegate
1545 01:10:30 Now, what I'm going to say may sound indelicate...
1546 01:10:33 Goes and proposes his own form of government
1547 01:10:36 What?
1548 01:10:36 His own plan for a new form of government
1549 01:10:38 What?
1550 01:10:38 Talks for six hours, the convention is listless
1551 01:10:41 Bright young man
1552 01:10:42 Yo, who the eff is this?
1553 01:10:43 Why do you always say what you believe?
1554 01:10:46 Why do you always say what you believe?
1555 01:10:49 Every proclamation guarantees free ammunition for your enemies
1556 01:10:54 Why do you write like it's going out of style?
1557 01:10:56 Write day and night like it's going out of style
1558 01:10:59 Every day you fight like it's going out of style
1559 01:11:02 Do what you do
1560 01:11:05 Alexander
1561 01:11:05 Aaron Burr, sir.
1562 01:11:07 Well, it's the middle of the night.
1563 01:11:08 Can we confer, sir?
1564 01:11:09 - Is this a legal matter? - Yes, and it's important to me.
1565 01:11:12 - What do you need? - Burr, you're a better lawyer than me.
1566 01:11:15 Okay.
1567 01:11:15 I know I talk too much, I'm abrasive
1568 01:11:17 You're incredible in court. You're succinct, persuasive
1569 01:11:20 My client needs a strong defense. You're the solution
1570 01:11:22 - Uh, who's your client? - The new US Constitution.
1571 01:11:26 - No. - Hear me out.
1572 01:11:27 No way.
1573 01:11:28 A series of essays anonymously published
1574 01:11:30 defending the document to the public
1575 01:11:32 - No one'll read it. - I disagree.
1576 01:11:34 And if it fails?
1577 01:11:35 Burr, that's why we need it.
1578 01:11:36 - The Constitution's a mess. - So it needs amendments.
1579 01:11:39 - It's full of contradictions. - So is independence.
1580 01:11:41 - We have to start somewhere. - No. No way.
1581 01:11:44 - You're making a mistake. - Good night.
1582 01:11:47 What are you waiting for? What do you stall for?
1583 01:11:49 - What? - We won the war. What was it all for?
1584 01:11:52 - Do you support this Constitution? - Of course.
1585 01:11:54 - Then defend it. - What if you're backing the wrong horse?
1586 01:11:57 Burr, we studied and we fought and we killed
1587 01:12:00 for the notion of a nation we now get to build
1588 01:12:02 For once in your life, take a stand with pride
1589 01:12:05 I don't understand how you stand to the side
1590 01:12:07 I will keep all my plans close to my chest
1591 01:12:11 Wait for it, wait for it, wait...
1592 01:12:12 I'll wait here and see which way the wind will blow
1593 01:12:17 I'm taking my time
1594 01:12:20 watching the afterbirth of a nation
1595 01:12:22 watching the tension grow
1596 01:12:29 I am sailing off to London
1597 01:12:30 I'm accompanied by someone who always pays
1598 01:12:34 I have found a wealthy husband
1599 01:12:36 who will keep me in comfort for all my days
1600 01:12:40 He is not a lot of fun
1601 01:12:41 but there's no one who can match you for turn of phrase
1602 01:12:45 - My Alexander - Angelica
1603 01:12:49 Don't forget to write
1604 01:12:52 Look at where you are
1605 01:12:55 Look at where you started
1606 01:12:57 The fact that you're alive is a miracle
1607 01:12:59 Just stay alive, that would be enough
1608 01:13:03 And if your wife could share a fraction of your time
1609 01:13:07 If I could grant you peace of mind
1610 01:13:11 Would that be enough?
1611 01:13:13 Alexander joins forces with James Madison and John Jay
1612 01:13:16 to write a series of essays
1613 01:13:17 defending the new United States Constitution
1614 01:13:20 entitled "The Federalist Papers"
1615 01:13:23 The plan was to write a total of 25 essays,
1616 01:13:25 the work divided evenly among the three men.
1617 01:13:29 In the end, they wrote 85 essays in the span of six months.
1618 01:13:34 John Jay got sick after writing five.
1619 01:13:37 James Madison wrote 29.
1620 01:13:39 Hamilton wrote the other 51!
1621 01:13:43 How do you write like you're running out of time?
1622 01:13:46 Write day and night like you're running out of time
1623 01:13:49 Every day you fight like you're running out of time
1624 01:13:51 Running out of time? Are you running out of time?
1625 01:13:54 How do you write like tomorrow won't arrive?
1626 01:13:57 How do you write like you need it to survive?
1627 01:13:59 How do you write every second you're alive?
1628 01:14:02 Every second you're alive, every second you're alive
1629 01:14:06 They're asking me to lead
1630 01:14:08 I'm doing the best I can
1631 01:14:11 to get the people that I need
1632 01:14:14 I'm asking you to be my right-hand man
1633 01:14:16 Treasury or State?
1634 01:14:17 I know it's a lot to ask
1635 01:14:19 Treasury or State?
1636 01:14:20 To leave behind the world you know
1637 01:14:21 Sir, do you want me to run the Treasury or State Department?
1638 01:14:26 Treasury.
1639 01:14:27 Let's go.
1640 01:14:30 Alexander...
1641 01:14:32 I have to leave.
1642 01:14:33 Alexander.
1643 01:14:34 Look around, look around
1644 01:14:36 At how lucky we are to be alive right now
1645 01:14:39 Helpless
1646 01:14:40 They are asking me to lead
1647 01:14:42 Look around, isn't this enough?
1648 01:14:45 He will never be satisfied
1649 01:14:46 What would be enough to be satisfied?
1650 01:14:47 He will never be satisfied
1651 01:14:50 Satisfied, satisfied
1652 01:14:51 History has its eyes on you
1653 01:14:57 Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?
1654 01:14:59 Isn't this enough?
1655 01:15:00 Will it be enough?
1656 01:15:01 History has its eyes on you
1657 01:15:03 Why do you write like you're running out of time?
1658 01:15:05 Why do you write like...
1659 01:15:06 History has its eyes on you
1660 01:15:11 I am not throwing away my shot
1661 01:15:12 Just you wait
1662 01:15:13 I am not throwing away my shot
1663 01:15:15 Just you wait
1664 01:15:16 I am Alexander Hamilton
1665 01:15:18 Hamilton, Hamilton
1666 01:15:18 Just you wait
1667 01:15:21 I am not throwing away my shot!
1668 01:16:38 Seventeen
1669 01:16:40 Se-se-seventeen
1670 01:16:42 Se-se-seventeen
1671 01:16:46 How does the bastard, orphan
1672 01:16:48 Immigrant, decorated war vet
1673 01:16:50 Unite the colonies through more debt?
1674 01:16:52 Fight the other founding fathers till he has to forfeit
1675 01:16:55 Have it all, lose it all.
1676 01:16:56 You ready for more yet?
1677 01:16:58 Treasury secretary, Washington's the president
1678 01:17:00 Every American experiment sets a precedent
1679 01:17:03 Not so fast, someone came along to resist him
1680 01:17:06 Pissed him off until we had a two-party system
1681 01:17:09 You haven't met him yet, you haven't had the chance
1682 01:17:11 'Cause he's been kickin' ass as the ambassador to France
1683 01:17:14 But someone's gotta keep the American promise
1684 01:17:17 You simply must meet Thomas, Thomas!
1685 01:17:21 Thomas Jefferson's coming home!
1686 01:17:23 Thomas Jefferson's coming home!
1687 01:17:26 Thomas Jefferson's coming home!
1688 01:17:29 Thomas Jefferson's coming home
1689 01:17:31 Thomas Jefferson's coming home
1690 01:17:33 Lord, he's been off in Paris for so long
1691 01:17:48 France is following us to revolution
1692 01:17:51 There is no more status quo
1693 01:17:54 But the sun comes up, and the world still spins
1694 01:17:58 I helped Lafayette draft a declaration
1695 01:18:02 Then I said, "I gotta go
1696 01:18:04 Gotta be in Monticello"
1697 01:18:07 Now the work at home begins
1698 01:18:13 So what did I miss?
1699 01:18:16 What did I miss?
1700 01:18:19 Virginia, my home sweet home, I wanna give you a kiss
1701 01:18:24 I've been in Paris meeting lots of different ladies
1702 01:18:27 I guess I basically missed the late '80s
1703 01:18:30 I traveled the wide, wide world and came back to this
1704 01:18:36 There's a letter on my desk from the president
1705 01:18:39 Haven't even put my bag down yet
1706 01:18:41 Sally, be a lamb, darlin'. Won'tcha open it?
1707 01:18:43 It says the president's assembling a cabinet
1708 01:18:46 And that I am to be the secretary of state
1709 01:18:48 Great. And that I'm already Senate-approved
1710 01:18:51 I just got home and now I'm headed up to New York
1711 01:18:55 Headin' to New York! Headin' to New York!
1712 01:18:57 Lookin' at the rolling fields
1713 01:18:59 I can't believe that we are free
1714 01:19:03 Ready to face whatever's
1715 01:19:05 awaiting me in NYC
1716 01:19:09 But who's waitin' for me when I step in the place?
1717 01:19:11 My friend, James Madison
1718 01:19:13 Red in the face
1719 01:19:14 he grabs my arm and I respond, "What's goin' on?"
1720 01:19:20 Thomas, we are engaged in a battle
1721 01:19:23 for our nation's very soul
1722 01:19:26 Can you get us out of the mess we're in?
1723 01:19:30 Hamilton's new financial plan is nothing less
1724 01:19:33 than government control
1725 01:19:36 I've been fighting for the South alone
1726 01:19:39 Where have you been?
1727 01:19:41 France. What?
1728 01:19:43 We have to win.
1729 01:19:45 What did I miss?
1730 01:19:47 What did I miss?
1731 01:19:48 I've come home to this?
1732 01:19:50 Headfirst into a political abyss
1733 01:19:54 Headfirst into the abyss
1734 01:19:56 I have my first cabinet meeting today
1735 01:19:58 I guess I better think of something to say
1736 01:20:01 I'm already on my way. Let's get to the bottom of this
1737 01:20:05 What did I miss?
1738 01:20:08 Mr. Jefferson, welcome home
1739 01:20:11 Mr. Jefferson? Alexander Hamilton
1740 01:20:14 Mr. Jefferson, welcome home
1741 01:20:19 Mr. Jefferson, welcome home, sir
1742 01:20:22 You've been off in Paris
1743 01:20:25 For so long!
1744 01:20:30 So what did I miss?
1745 01:20:39 Ladies and gentlemen,
1746 01:20:41 you could've been anywhere in the world tonight,
1747 01:20:44 but you're here with us in New York City.
1748 01:20:47 Are you ready for a cabinet meeting?
1749 01:20:52 The issue on the table:
1750 01:20:54 Secretary Hamilton's plan to
1751 01:20:55 assume state debt and establish a national bank.
1752 01:20:58 Secretary Jefferson, you have the floor, sir.
1753 01:21:02 "Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"
1754 01:21:04 We fought for these ideals, we shouldn't settle for less
1755 01:21:07 These are wise words, enterprising men quote 'em
1756 01:21:10 Don't act surprised, you guys, 'cause I wrote 'em
1757 01:21:14 But Hamilton forgets
1758 01:21:15 His plan would have the government assume states' debts
1759 01:21:18 Now, place your bets as to who that benefits
1760 01:21:21 The very seat of government where Hamilton sits
1761 01:21:24 - Not true! - Ooh, if the shoe fits, wear it
1762 01:21:26 If New York's in debt, why should Virginia bear it?
1763 01:21:30 Our debts are paid, I'm afraid
1764 01:21:32 Don't tax the South 'cause we got it made in the shade
1765 01:21:35 In Virginia, we plant seeds in the ground, we create
1766 01:21:38 You just wanna move our money around
1767 01:21:40 This financial plan is an outrageous demand
1768 01:21:43 And it's too many damn pages for any man to understand
1769 01:21:46 Stand with me in the land of the free
1770 01:21:48 Pray to God we never see Hamilton's candidacy
1771 01:21:51 Look, when Britain taxed our tea, we got frisky
1772 01:21:54 Imagine what gon' happen when you try to tax our whiskey
1773 01:21:57 Thank you, Secretary Jefferson.
1774 01:22:02 Secretary Hamilton, your response.
1775 01:22:08 Thomas, that was a real nice declaration
1776 01:22:10 Welcome to the present, we're running a real nation
1777 01:22:13 Would you like to join us, or stay mellow
1778 01:22:16 Doin' whatever the hell it is you do in Monticello?
1779 01:22:19 If we assume the debts, the Union gets
1780 01:22:21 A new line of credit, a financial diuretic
1781 01:22:24 How do you not get it?
1782 01:22:25 If we're aggressive and competitive, the Union gets a boost
1783 01:22:28 You'd rather give it a sedative?
1784 01:22:30 A civics lesson from a slaver
1785 01:22:31 Hey, neighbor, your debts are paid 'cause you don't pay for labor
1786 01:22:35 "We plant seeds in the South, we create"
1787 01:22:37 Yeah, keep ranting, we know who's really doing the planting
1788 01:22:41 And another thing, Mr. Age of Enlightenment
1789 01:22:43 Don't lecture me about the war you didn't fight in it
1790 01:22:46 You think I'm frightened of you, man? We almost died in a trench
1791 01:22:49 While you were off getting high with the French
1792 01:22:51 Thomas Jefferson, always hesitant with the President
1793 01:22:54 Reticent, there isn't a plan he hasn't jettisoned
1794 01:22:57 Madison, you mad as a hatter, son, take your medicine
1795 01:22:59 Damn, you're in worse shape than the national debt is in
1796 01:23:02 Sittin' there useless as two shits
1797 01:23:05 Hey, turn around, bend over, I'll show you where my shoe fits
1798 01:23:08 Excuse me.
1799 01:23:10 Madison, Jefferson, take a walk.
1800 01:23:11 Hamilton, take a walk.
1801 01:23:14 We're gonna reconvene after a brief recess.
1802 01:23:17 - Hamilton. - Sir.
1803 01:23:18 A word.
1804 01:23:20 You don't have the votes
1805 01:23:22 You don't have the votes
1806 01:23:25 You're gonna need congressional approval
1807 01:23:27 And you don't have the votes
1808 01:23:30 Such a blunder
1809 01:23:31 Sometimes it makes me wonder why I even bring the thunder
1810 01:23:34 Why he even brings the thunder
1811 01:23:44 You wanna pull yourself together?
1812 01:23:46 I'm sorry. These Virginians are birds of a feather.
1813 01:23:48 Young man, I'm from Virginia, so, watch your mouth.
1814 01:23:51 So we let Congress get held hostage by the South?
1815 01:23:54 - You need the votes. - No, we need bold strokes.
1816 01:23:57 - We need this plan. - No, you need to convince more folks.
1817 01:23:59 Well, James Madison won't talk to me, that's a nonstarter.
1818 01:24:03 Winning was easy, young man, governing's harder.
1819 01:24:05 - They're being intransigent. - You have to find a compromise.
1820 01:24:08 They don't have a plan. They just hate mine!
1821 01:24:10 Convince them otherwise.
1822 01:24:11 And what happens if I don't get congressional approval?
1823 01:24:13 I imagine they'll call for your removal.
1824 01:24:16 - Sir. - Figure it out, Alexander.
1825 01:24:20 That's an order from your commander.
1826 01:24:30 Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf
1827 01:24:32 Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf
1828 01:24:35 Good!
1829 01:24:36 Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf
1830 01:24:38 Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf
1831 01:24:41 Sept, huit, neuf
1832 01:24:42 Sept, huit, neuf
1833 01:24:43 Sept, huit, neuf
1834 01:24:44 Sept, huit, neuf
1835 01:24:45 One, two, three, four, five six, seven, eight, nine!
1836 01:24:51 My dearest, Angelica
1837 01:24:52 "Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
1838 01:24:54 Creeps in this petty pace from day to day"
1839 01:24:57 I trust you'll understand
1840 01:24:59 The reference to another Scottish tragedy
1841 01:25:01 Without my having to name the play
1842 01:25:03 They think me Macbeth, ambition is my folly
1843 01:25:06 I'm a polymath, a pain in the ass, a massive pain
1844 01:25:09 Madison is Banquo, Jefferson's Macduff
1845 01:25:12 And Birnam Wood is Congress on its way to Dunsinane
1846 01:25:16 And there you are, an ocean away
1847 01:25:18 Do you have to live an ocean away?
1848 01:25:21 Thoughts of you subside, then I get another letter
1849 01:25:24 And I cannot put the notion away
1850 01:25:27 Take a break
1851 01:25:29 I am on my way
1852 01:25:30 There's a little surprise before supper and it cannot wait
1853 01:25:34 I'll be there in just a minute, save my plate
1854 01:25:36 - Alexander - Okay, okay
1855 01:25:38 Your son is nine years old today
1856 01:25:41 He has something he'd like to say
1857 01:25:44 He's been practicing all day
1858 01:25:47 Philip, take it away
1859 01:25:49 Daddy, Daddy, look
1860 01:25:51 My name is Philip, I am a poet
1861 01:25:54 I wrote this poem just to show it
1862 01:25:57 And I just turned nine
1863 01:26:00 You can write rhymes but you can't write mine
1864 01:26:02 What!
1865 01:26:03 I practice French and play piano with my mother
1866 01:26:06 I have a sister, but I want a little brother
1867 01:26:08 Okay.
1868 01:26:09 My daddy's trying to start America's bank
1869 01:26:11 Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq!
1870 01:26:13 - Bravo! - Take a break
1871 01:26:15 Hey, our kid is pretty great.
1872 01:26:17 Run away with us for the summer, let's go upstate
1873 01:26:20 Eliza, I've got so much on my plate
1874 01:26:22 We can all go stay with my father
1875 01:26:25 - There's a lake I know - I know
1876 01:26:28 - In a nearby park - I'd love to go
1877 01:26:31 You and I can go when the night gets dark
1878 01:26:36 I will try to get away
1879 01:26:37 My dearest Alexander
1880 01:26:39 You must get through to Jefferson
1881 01:26:41 Sit down with him and compromise. Don't stop till you agree
1882 01:26:44 Your favorite older sister, Angelica, reminds you
1883 01:26:47 There's someone in your corner all the way across the sea
1884 01:26:50 In a letter I received from you two weeks ago
1885 01:26:52 I noticed a comma in the middle of a phrase
1886 01:26:55 It changed the meaning, did you intend this?
1887 01:26:58 One stroke and you've consumed my waking days, it said:
1888 01:27:01 "My dearest Angelica"
1889 01:27:05 With a comma after "Dearest"
1890 01:27:08 You've written:
1891 01:27:08 "My dearest,
1892 01:27:11 Angelica"
1893 01:27:15 Anyway, all this to say, I'm coming home this summer
1894 01:27:18 At my sister's invitation
1895 01:27:20 I'll be there with your family if you make your way upstate
1896 01:27:23 I know you're very busy, I know your work's important
1897 01:27:26 But I'm crossing the ocean and I just can't wait
1898 01:27:29 You won't be an ocean away
1899 01:27:31 You'll only be a moment away
1900 01:27:35 Alexander, come downstairs
1901 01:27:37 Angelica's arriving today
1902 01:27:43 Angelica
1903 01:27:44 Eliza!
1904 01:27:47 The Schuyler sisters
1905 01:27:50 Alexander
1906 01:27:53 Hi.
1907 01:27:54 It's good to see your face
1908 01:27:56 Angelica, tell this man
1909 01:27:58 John Adams spends the summer with his family
1910 01:28:02 Angelica, tell my wife
1911 01:28:04 John Adams doesn't have a real job anyway
1912 01:28:08 You're not joining us? Wait
1913 01:28:11 I'm afraid I cannot join you upstate
1914 01:28:14 Alexander, I came all this way
1915 01:28:16 She came all this way
1916 01:28:18 All this way
1917 01:28:19 Take a break.
1918 01:28:20 You know I have to get my plan through congress.
1919 01:28:22 Run away with us for the summer, let's go upstate
1920 01:28:25 I lose my job if we don't get this plan through congress
1921 01:28:28 We can all go stay with our father
1922 01:28:31 There's a lake I know
1923 01:28:31 I know I'll miss your face
1924 01:28:33 In a nearby park
1925 01:28:34 Screw your courage to the sticking place
1926 01:28:36 You and I can go
1927 01:28:38 Eliza's right
1928 01:28:39 Take a break
1929 01:28:40 And get away
1930 01:28:42 Run away with us for the summer
1931 01:28:44 Let's go upstate
1932 01:28:45 Where we can stay
1933 01:28:48 We can all go stay with our father
1934 01:28:50 If you take your time
1935 01:28:51 Look around, look around
1936 01:28:53 At how lucky we are
1937 01:28:53 You will make your mark
1938 01:28:54 To be alive right now
1939 01:28:56 Close your eyes and dream
1940 01:28:57 We can go
1941 01:28:58 when the night gets dark
1942 01:29:01 Take a break
1943 01:29:03 I have to get my plan through Congress.
1944 01:29:05 I can't stop till I get this plan through Congress.
1945 01:29:24 There's nothing like summer in the city
1946 01:29:29 Someone under stress meets someone looking pretty
1947 01:29:36 There's trouble in the air, you can smell it
1948 01:29:39 And Alexander's by himself
1949 01:29:41 I'll let him tell it
1950 01:29:44 I hadn't slept in a week, I was weak, I was awake
1951 01:29:47 You've never seen a bastard orphan more in need of a break
1952 01:29:50 Longing for Angelica, missing my wife
1953 01:29:53 That's when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life
1954 01:29:55 She said:
1955 01:29:57 I know you are a man of honor
1956 01:29:59 I'm so sorry to bother you at home
1957 01:30:02 But I don't know where to go
1958 01:30:05 And I came here all alone
1959 01:30:07 She said:
1960 01:30:08 My husband's doin' me wrong
1961 01:30:11 Beatin' me, cheatin' me
1962 01:30:13 Mistreatin' me
1963 01:30:14 Suddenly he's up and gone
1964 01:30:17 I don't have the means to go on
1965 01:30:20 So I offered her a loan, I offered to walk her home
1966 01:30:22 She said:
1967 01:30:23 You're too kind, sir
1968 01:30:25 I gave her 30 bucks that I had socked away
1969 01:30:27 She lived a block away, She said:
1970 01:30:29 This one's mine, sir
1971 01:30:31 Then I said "Well, I should head back home"
1972 01:30:33 She turned red
1973 01:30:34 She led me to her bed, let her legs spread and said:
1974 01:30:37 Stay?
1975 01:30:42 That's when I began to pray
1976 01:30:43 Lord, show me how to say no to this
1977 01:30:46 I don't know how to say no to this
1978 01:30:49 But, my God, she looks so helpless
1979 01:30:52 And her body's saying, "Hell yes"
1980 01:30:55 No, show me how to say no to this
1981 01:30:58 I don't know how to say no to this
1982 01:31:01 In my mind, I'm tryin' to go
1983 01:31:03 Go! Go! Go!
1984 01:31:04 Then her mouth is on mine and I don't say
1985 01:31:07 No! No! Say no to this
1986 01:31:10 No! No! Say no to this
1987 01:31:13 No! No! Say no to this
1988 01:31:16 No! No! Say no to this
1989 01:31:20 I wish I could say that was the last time
1990 01:31:22 I said that last time, it became a pastime
1991 01:31:25 A month into this endeavor I received a letter
1992 01:31:28 From a Mr. James Reynolds, even better
1993 01:31:30 It said:
1994 01:31:31 Dear sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health
1995 01:31:34 And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth
1996 01:31:37 In the pockets of people like me down on they luck
1997 01:31:40 You see, that was my wife who you decided to...
1998 01:31:42 Fu...
1999 01:31:43 You made the wrong sucker a cuckold
2000 01:31:46 So time to pay the piper for the pants you unbuckled
2001 01:31:49 And, hey, you can keep seein' my whore wife
2002 01:31:51 if the price is right
2003 01:31:52 If not, I'm telling your wife
2004 01:31:54 I hid the letter and I raced to her place
2005 01:31:57 Screamed, "How could you?" in her face
2006 01:31:58 She said:
2007 01:31:59 No, sir
2008 01:32:00 Half-dressed, apologetic
2009 01:32:02 A mess, she looked pathetic, she cried:
2010 01:32:04 Please don't go, sir
2011 01:32:06 So was your whole story a setup?
2012 01:32:07 I don't know about any letter!
2013 01:32:09 Stop crying, goddamn it, get up
2014 01:32:11 I didn't know any better!
2015 01:32:12 Please don't leave me with him helpless
2016 01:32:12 I am ruined, I am
2017 01:32:15 How could I do this?
2018 01:32:16 Just give him what he wants and you can have me
2019 01:32:18 I don't want you
2020 01:32:19 Whatever you want
2021 01:32:20 I don't want you
2022 01:32:20 If you pay, you can stay
2023 01:32:24 Lord, show me how to say no to this
2024 01:32:26 Tonight
2025 01:32:27 I don't know how to say no to this
2026 01:32:30 But the situation's helpless
2027 01:32:32 Helpless
2028 01:32:33 And her body's screaming, "Hell yes"
2029 01:32:35 No, show me how to say no to this
2030 01:32:39 How can you say no to this?
2031 01:32:39 How can I say no to this?
2032 01:32:42 There is nowhere I can go
2033 01:32:43 Go, go, go
2034 01:32:45 When her body's on mine I do not say
2035 01:32:48 No! Say no to this
2036 01:32:48 Yes
2037 01:32:51 No! Say no to this
2038 01:32:51 Yes
2039 01:32:53 No!
2040 01:32:54 Yes
2041 01:32:55 Say no to this
2042 01:32:57 No!
2043 01:32:57 Yes
2044 01:32:58 Say no to this
2045 01:33:01 Say no to this
2046 01:33:02 I don't say no to this
2047 01:33:03 Don't say no to this
2048 01:33:06 There is nowhere I can go
2049 01:33:10 So?
2050 01:33:15 Nobody needs to know
2051 01:33:33 Mr. Secretary.
2052 01:33:34 Mr. Burr, sir.
2053 01:33:35 Hey, did you hear the news about good old General Mercer?
2054 01:33:38 No.
2055 01:33:39 You know Clermont Street?
2056 01:33:40 Yeah.
2057 01:33:41 They renamed it after him,
2058 01:33:43 the Mercer legacy is secure.
2059 01:33:44 Sure.
2060 01:33:45 And all he had to do was die.
2061 01:33:46 Yeah, that's a lot less work.
2062 01:33:48 We ought to give it a try.
2063 01:33:49 Now how you gonna get your debt plan through?
2064 01:33:52 I guess I'm gonna finally have to listen to you.
2065 01:33:55 Really?
2066 01:33:56 Talk less
2067 01:33:58 Smile more
2068 01:34:01 Do whatever it takes
2069 01:34:02 To get my plan on the congress floor
2070 01:34:07 Now Madison and Jefferson are merciless
2071 01:34:09 Well, hate the sin, love the sinner
2072 01:34:12 Hamilton.
2073 01:34:12 I'm sorry, Burr, I gotta go
2074 01:34:14 Oh, but, uh--
2075 01:34:15 Decisions are happening over dinner
2076 01:34:20 Two Virginians and an immigrant walk into a room
2077 01:34:23 Diametrically opposed, foes
2078 01:34:26 They emerge with a compromise
2079 01:34:28 Having opened doors that were previously closed
2080 01:34:30 Bros
2081 01:34:31 The immigrant emerges with unprecedented financial power
2082 01:34:34 A system he can shape however he wants
2083 01:34:37 The Virginians emerge with the nation's capital
2084 01:34:40 And here's the pièce de résistance
2085 01:34:43 No one else was in the room where it happened
2086 01:34:45 The room where it happened, the room where it happened
2087 01:34:48 No one else was in the room where it happened
2088 01:34:51 The room where it happened, the room where it happened
2089 01:34:54 No one really knows how the game is played
2090 01:34:56 The art of the trade
2091 01:34:57 how the sausage gets made
2092 01:34:59 We just assume that it happens
2093 01:35:02 But no one else is in the room where it happens
2094 01:35:07 Thomas claims:
2095 01:35:09 Alexander was on Washington's doorstep one day,
2096 01:35:12 in distress and disarray
2097 01:35:13 Thomas claims:
2098 01:35:14 Alexander said:
2099 01:35:15 I have nowhere else to turn
2100 01:35:16 And basically begged me to join the fray
2101 01:35:19 Thomas claims:
2102 01:35:20 I approached Madison and said:
2103 01:35:21 "I know you hate him, but let's hear what he has to say"
2104 01:35:24 Thomas claims:
2105 01:35:25 Well, I arranged the meeting
2106 01:35:27 I arranged the menu, the venue, the seating
2107 01:35:29 But no one else was in the room where it happened
2108 01:35:32 The room where it happened, the room where it happened
2109 01:35:35 No one else was in the room where it happened
2110 01:35:38 The room where it happened, the room where it happened
2111 01:35:41 No one really knows how the parties get to yes
2112 01:35:43 The pieces that are sacrificed in every game of chess
2113 01:35:46 We just assume that it happens
2114 01:35:49 But no one else is in the room where it happens
2115 01:35:55 Meanwhile
2116 01:35:55 Madison is grappling with the fact that
2117 01:35:58 not every issue can be settled by committee
2118 01:36:00 Meanwhile
2119 01:36:01 Congress is fighting over where to put the capital
2120 01:36:05 It isn't pretty.
2121 01:36:06 Then Jefferson approaches with a dinner and invite
2122 01:36:09 And Madison responds with Virginian insight
2123 01:36:11 Maybe we can solve one problem with another
2124 01:36:14 And win a victory for the Southerners, in other words
2125 01:36:18 - A quid pro quo. - I suppose.
2126 01:36:20 Wouldn't you like to work a little closer to home?
2127 01:36:22 Actually, I would
2128 01:36:23 Well, I propose the Potomac
2129 01:36:25 And you'll provide him his votes
2130 01:36:26 Well, we'll see how it goes
2131 01:36:27 Let's go
2132 01:36:28 No one else was in the room where it happened
2133 01:36:31 The room where it happened, the room where it happened
2134 01:36:34 No one else was in the room where it happened
2135 01:36:36 The room where it happened, the room where it happened
2136 01:36:39 My God
2137 01:36:40 In God we trust
2138 01:36:42 But we'll never really know what got discussed
2139 01:36:45 Click, boom, then it happened
2140 01:36:48 And no one else is in the room where it happened
2141 01:36:50 Alexander Hamilton
2142 01:36:52 What did they say to you
2143 01:36:53 to get you to sell New York City down the river?
2144 01:36:56 Alexander Hamilton
2145 01:36:57 Did Washington know about the dinner?
2146 01:36:59 Was there presidential pressure to deliver?
2147 01:37:01 Alexander Hamilton
2148 01:37:03 Or did you know even then
2149 01:37:04 It doesn't matter where you put the U.S. Capital?
2150 01:37:07 'Cause we'll have the banks, we're in the same spot
2151 01:37:10 You got more than you gave
2152 01:37:11 And I wanted what I got
2153 01:37:13 When you got skin in the game, you stay in the game
2154 01:37:16 But you don't get a win, unless you play in the game
2155 01:37:18 Oh, you get love for it, you get hate for it
2156 01:37:21 You get nothing if you wait for it, wait for it, wait
2157 01:37:25 God help and forgive me
2158 01:37:27 I wanna build something that's gonna outlive me
2159 01:37:30 What do you want, Burr? What do you want, Burr?
2160 01:37:33 If you stand for nothing, Burr, what do you fall for?
2161 01:37:36 I...
2162 01:37:37 I wanna be in the room where it happens
2163 01:37:40 The room where it happens
2164 01:37:42 I...
2165 01:37:44 wanna be in the room where it happens
2166 01:37:47 The room where it happens
2167 01:37:48 I wanna be in the room where it happens
2168 01:37:50 I, I wanna be in
2169 01:37:52 the room where it happens
2170 01:37:54 I...
2171 01:37:54 I wanna be in the room where it happens
2172 01:37:56 I wanna be in the room
2173 01:38:01 I wanna be
2174 01:38:03 I wanna be
2175 01:38:05 I've got to be
2176 01:38:06 I've got to be in the room
2177 01:38:09 that big old room
2178 01:38:11 The art of the compromise
2179 01:38:14 Hold your nose and close your eyes
2180 01:38:17 We want our leaders to save the day
2181 01:38:20 But we don't get a say in what they trade away
2182 01:38:23 We dream of a brand-new start
2183 01:38:26 But we dream in the dark for the most part
2184 01:38:29 Dark as a tomb where it happens
2185 01:38:31 I've got to be in the room
2186 01:38:32 The room where it happens
2187 01:38:34 I've got to be
2188 01:38:35 The room where it happens
2189 01:38:37 I've got to be
2190 01:38:38 The room where it happens
2191 01:38:39 I've got to be in the room
2192 01:38:41 The room where it happens
2193 01:38:42 I've got to be, I've got to be
2194 01:38:44 The room where it happens
2195 01:38:44 I wanna be in the room
2196 01:38:46 The room where it happens
2197 01:38:50 Click, boom
2198 01:39:04 Look, Grandpa's in the paper.
2199 01:39:08 "War hero, Philip Schuyler,
2200 01:39:09 loses Senate seat to young upstart, Aaron Burr."
2201 01:39:14 Grandpa just lost his seat in the Senate
2202 01:39:16 Sometimes that's how it goes
2203 01:39:19 Well, Daddy's gonna find out any minute
2204 01:39:21 I'm sure he already knows
2205 01:39:23 Further down
2206 01:39:24 Further down
2207 01:39:25 "Let's meet the newest Senator from New York"
2208 01:39:29 New York
2209 01:39:30 Our Senator
2210 01:39:32 Burr, since when are you a Democratic-Republican?
2211 01:39:35 Since being one put me on the up-and-up again
2212 01:39:37 No one knows who you are or what you do
2213 01:39:39 Hey, they don't need to know me, they don't like you
2214 01:39:42 Excuse me
2215 01:39:42 Oh, Wall Street thinks you're great
2216 01:39:44 You'll always be adored by the things you create
2217 01:39:46 But upstate
2218 01:39:47 - Wait. - People think you're crooked.
2219 01:39:49 And Schuyler's seat was up for grabs so I took it
2220 01:39:52 I've always considered you a friend
2221 01:39:54 I don't see why that has to end
2222 01:39:56 You changed parties to run against my father-in-law
2223 01:39:58 I changed parties to seize the opportunity I saw
2224 01:40:01 I swear, your pride will be the death of us all
2225 01:40:03 Beware, it goeth before the fall
2226 01:40:05 The issue on the table:
2227 01:40:07 France is on the verge of war with England.
2228 01:40:10 Now, do we commit money and aid to our French allies,
2229 01:40:12 or do we stay out of it?
2230 01:40:14 Remember, my decision on this matter
2231 01:40:16 is not subject to congressional approval.
2232 01:40:19 The only one you have to convince is me.
2233 01:40:21 Secretary Jefferson, you have the floor, sir.
2234 01:40:25 When we were on death's door, when we were needy
2235 01:40:27 We made a promise, we signed a treaty
2236 01:40:30 We needed money and guns and half a chance
2237 01:40:32 Uh, who provided those funds?
2238 01:40:34 France.
2239 01:40:35 In return, they didn't ask for land
2240 01:40:37 only a promise that we'd lend a hand
2241 01:40:39 and stand with them if they fought against oppressors
2242 01:40:42 And revolution is messy
2243 01:40:43 but now is the time to stand
2244 01:40:44 stand with our brothers as they fight against tyranny
2245 01:40:47 I know that Alexander Hamilton is here
2246 01:40:49 And he would rather not have this debate
2247 01:40:51 I'll remind you that he is not Secretary of State
2248 01:40:54 He knows nothing of loyalty
2249 01:40:56 Smells like new money, dresses like fake royalty
2250 01:40:58 Desperate to rise above his station
2251 01:41:01 Everything he does betrays the ideals of our nation
2252 01:41:05 Ay, and if you don't know, now you know, Mr. President
2253 01:41:08 Thank you, Secretary Jefferson.
2254 01:41:11 Secretary Hamilton, your response.
2255 01:41:13 Get him, boy!
2256 01:41:14 Let him know right now.
2257 01:41:16 You must be outta your goddamn mind
2258 01:41:19 If you think the president is gonna bring the nation to the brink
2259 01:41:22 Of meddling in the middle of a military mess
2260 01:41:25 A game of chess, where France is queen and king-less
2261 01:41:27 We signed a treaty with a king, whose head is now in a basket
2262 01:41:30 Would you like to take it out and ask it
2263 01:41:32 "Oh, should we honor our treaty, King Louis's head?"
2264 01:41:34 "Ah, do whatever you want. I'm super dead"
2265 01:41:36 Enough, enough!
2266 01:41:38 - Hamilton is right. - Mr. President--
2267 01:41:40 We're too fragile to start another fight
2268 01:41:42 Sir, do we not fight for freedom?
2269 01:41:44 Sure, when the French figure out who's gonna lead 'em
2270 01:41:46 The people are leading
2271 01:41:48 The people are rioting. There's a difference
2272 01:41:50 Frankly, it's a little disquieting
2273 01:41:52 You would let your ideals blind you to reality
2274 01:41:54 - Hamilton? - Sir
2275 01:41:55 Draft a statement of neutrality
2276 01:41:56 Yes, sir
2277 01:41:57 Did you forget Lafayette?
2278 01:41:59 What?
2279 01:42:00 Have you an ounce of regret?
2280 01:42:02 You accumulate debt. You accumulate power
2281 01:42:04 Yet in their hour of need you forget
2282 01:42:06 Lafayette's a smart man, he'll be fine
2283 01:42:09 And before he was your friend, he was mine
2284 01:42:11 If we try to fight in every revolution in the world
2285 01:42:14 We never stop. Where do we draw the line?
2286 01:42:16 - So quick-witted. - Alas, I admit it
2287 01:42:18 - I bet you were quite a lawyer - My defendants got acquitted
2288 01:42:21 - Well, someone ought to remind you - What?
2289 01:42:23 You're nothing without Washington behind you
2290 01:42:25 - Hamilton. - Daddy's calling.
2291 01:42:37 It must be nice
2292 01:42:39 It must be nice
2293 01:42:42 To have Washington on your side
2294 01:42:45 It must be nice
2295 01:42:46 It must be nice
2296 01:42:49 To have Washington on your side
2297 01:42:52 Every action has its equal opposite reaction
2298 01:42:55 Thanks to Hamilton, our cabinet's fractured into factions
2299 01:42:59 Try not to crack under the stress
2300 01:43:01 We're breaking down like fractions
2301 01:43:02 We smack each other in the press, and we don't print retractions
2302 01:43:06 I get no satisfaction witnessing his fits of passion
2303 01:43:09 The way he primps and preens and dresses like the pits of fashion
2304 01:43:13 Our poorest citizens, our farmers live ration to ration
2305 01:43:17 as Wall Street robs 'em blind in search of chips to cash in
2306 01:43:21 This prick is asking for someone to bring him to task
2307 01:43:23 Somebody give me some dirt on this vacuous mass
2308 01:43:26 So we can at last unmask him
2309 01:43:27 I'll pull the trigger on him
2310 01:43:29 Someone load the gun and cock it
2311 01:43:31 While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket
2312 01:43:35 It must be nice
2313 01:43:37 It must be nice
2314 01:43:39 To have Washington on your side
2315 01:43:42 It must be nice
2316 01:43:44 It must be nice
2317 01:43:46 To have Washington on your side
2318 01:43:49 Look back at the Bill of Rights
2319 01:43:51 Which I wrote
2320 01:43:53 The ink hasn't dried
2321 01:43:56 It must be nice
2322 01:43:58 It must be nice
2323 01:44:00 To have Washington on your side
2324 01:44:03 So he's doubled the size of the government
2325 01:44:05 Wasn't the trouble with much of our previous government size?
2326 01:44:08 - Look in his eyes - See how he lies
2327 01:44:09 Follow the scent of his enterprise
2328 01:44:11 Centralizing national credit
2329 01:44:13 And making American credit competitive
2330 01:44:15 If we don't stop it we aid and abet it
2331 01:44:16 I have to resign
2332 01:44:17 Somebody has to stand up for the South
2333 01:44:19 Somebody has to stand up to his mouth
2334 01:44:21 If there's a fire you're trying to douse
2335 01:44:23 You can't put it out from inside the house
2336 01:44:25 I'm in the cabinet
2337 01:44:26 I am complicit in watching him grabbin' at power and kiss it
2338 01:44:28 If Washington isn't gon' listen to disciplined dissidents
2339 01:44:30 This is the difference, this kid is out
2340 01:44:34 This immigrant isn't somebody we chose
2341 01:44:37 This immigrant's keeping us all on our toes
2342 01:44:41 Let's show these Federalists who they're up against
2343 01:44:44 Southern motherfukin' Democratic-Republicans
2344 01:44:48 Now follow the money and see where it goes
2345 01:44:52 Because every second the treasury grows
2346 01:44:55 If we follow the money and see where it leads
2347 01:44:58 Get in the weeds, look for the seeds of Hamilton's misdeeds
2348 01:45:01 It must be nice
2349 01:45:03 It must be nice
2350 01:45:06 We follow the money and see where it goes
2351 01:45:08 It must be nice
2352 01:45:10 It must be nice
2353 01:45:14 The emperor has no clothes
2354 01:45:16 We won't be invisible
2355 01:45:19 We won't be denied
2356 01:45:22 Still, it must be nice
2357 01:45:24 It must be nice
2358 01:45:27 To have Washington on your side
2359 01:45:32 Mr. President, you asked to see me.
2360 01:45:35 I know you're busy
2361 01:45:37 What do you need, sir?
2362 01:45:39 Sir?
2363 01:45:40 I wanna give you a word of warning
2364 01:45:43 Sir, I don't know what you heard,
2365 01:45:44 but whatever it is, Jefferson started it.
2366 01:45:48 Thomas Jefferson resigned this morning
2367 01:45:52 You're kidding.
2368 01:45:54 I need a favor
2369 01:45:55 Whatever you say, sir, Jefferson will pay for his behavior
2370 01:45:58 Shh, talk less
2371 01:46:00 I'll use the press, I'll write under a pseudonym
2372 01:46:02 You'll see what I can do to him
2373 01:46:04 I need you to draft an address
2374 01:46:06 Yes, he resigned, you can finally speak your mind
2375 01:46:09 No, he's stepping down so he can run for president
2376 01:46:13 Good luck defeating you, sir.
2377 01:46:15 I'm stepping down, I'm not running for president
2378 01:46:19 I'm sorry, what?
2379 01:46:20 One last time
2380 01:46:24 Relax, have a drink with me
2381 01:46:26 One last time
2382 01:46:29 Let's take a break tonight
2383 01:46:31 And then we'll teach 'em how to say goodbye
2384 01:46:33 To say goodbye
2385 01:46:35 You and I
2386 01:46:40 No, sir. Why?
2387 01:46:41 I want to talk about neutrality
2388 01:46:43 Sir, with Britain and France on the verge of war
2389 01:46:46 Is this the best time--
2390 01:46:47 I want to warn against partisan fighting
2391 01:46:50 Pick up a pen, start writing
2392 01:46:52 I wanna talk about what I have learned
2393 01:46:55 The hard-won wisdom I have earned
2394 01:46:57 As far as the people are concerned
2395 01:47:00 You have to serve, you could continue to serve
2396 01:47:03 No, one last time
2397 01:47:07 The people will hear from me
2398 01:47:09 One last time
2399 01:47:12 And if we get this right
2400 01:47:14 We're gonna teach 'em how to say goodbye
2401 01:47:18 You and I
2402 01:47:25 Mr. President, they will say you're weak
2403 01:47:27 No, they will see we're strong
2404 01:47:31 Your position is so unique
2405 01:47:32 So I'll use it to move them along
2406 01:47:36 Why do you have to say goodbye?
2407 01:47:38 If I say goodbye
2408 01:47:40 the nation learns to move on
2409 01:47:43 It outlives me when I'm gone
2410 01:47:49 Like the scripture says
2411 01:47:51 "Everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig tree
2412 01:47:57 And no one shall make them afraid"
2413 01:48:00 They'll be safe in the nation we've made
2414 01:48:06 I want to sit under my own vine and fig tree
2415 01:48:11 A moment alone in the shade
2416 01:48:15 At home in this nation we've made
2417 01:48:21 One last time
2418 01:48:24 One last time?
2419 01:48:33 Though, in reviewing the incidents of my administration,
2420 01:48:35 I am unconscious of intentional error,
2421 01:48:37 I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects
2422 01:48:39 not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors.
2423 01:48:45 I shall also carry with me the hope
2424 01:48:48 that my country will view them with indulgence...
2425 01:48:51 And that after 45 years of my life dedicated to its service,
2426 01:48:57 with an upright zeal,
2427 01:48:59 the faults of incompetent abilities
2428 01:49:00 will be consigned to oblivion,
2429 01:49:04 as I myself must soon be
2430 01:49:07 to the mansions of rest.
2431 01:49:11 I anticipate with pleasing expectation that retreat...
2432 01:49:15 In which I promise myself to realize the sweet enjoyment
2433 01:49:19 Of partaking in the midst of my fellow citizens
2434 01:49:24 The benign influence of good laws under a free government
2435 01:49:29 The ever-favorite object of my heart
2436 01:49:33 And the happy reward as I trust
2437 01:49:38 of our mutual cares, labors and dangers
2438 01:49:48 One last time
2439 01:49:51 George Washington's going home
2440 01:49:54 Teach 'em how to say goodbye
2441 01:49:57 George Washington's going home
2442 01:49:59 You and I
2443 01:50:02 George Washington's going home
2444 01:50:06 Going home
2445 01:50:08 George Washington's going home
2446 01:50:11 History has its eyes on you
2447 01:50:13 George Washington's going home
2448 01:50:16 Yeah, we're gonna teach 'em how to say goodbye
2449 01:50:19 Teach 'em how to say goodbye
2450 01:50:20 Teach them how to say goodbye, to say goodbye
2451 01:50:21 Teach 'em how to say goodbye
2452 01:50:25 Say goodbye one last time
2453 01:50:27 One last time
2454 01:50:32 Time
2455 01:51:11 They say
2456 01:51:13 George Washington's yielding his power and stepping away
2457 01:51:19 Is that true?
2458 01:51:22 I wasn't aware that was something a person could do
2459 01:51:28 I'm perplexed
2460 01:51:30 Are they going to keep on replacing whoever's in charge?
2461 01:51:35 If so, who's next?
2462 01:51:39 There's nobody else in their "country"
2463 01:51:43 Who looms quite as large
2464 01:51:48 What?
2465 01:51:51 John Adams?
2466 01:51:58 I know him
2467 01:52:00 That can't be
2468 01:52:02 That's that little guy who spoke to me
2469 01:52:05 All those years ago
2470 01:52:07 What was it? '85
2471 01:52:10 That poor man, they're going to eat him alive
2472 01:52:14 Oceans rise, empires fall
2473 01:52:18 Next to Washington they all look small
2474 01:52:21 All alone
2475 01:52:24 Watch them run
2476 01:52:25 They will tear each other into pieces
2477 01:52:29 Jesus Christ, this will be fun
2478 01:52:44 President John Adams?
2479 01:52:47 Good luck.
2480 01:52:56 How does Hamilton, the short-tempered
2481 01:52:58 protean creator of the Coast Guard
2482 01:53:01 Founder of the New York Post
2483 01:53:03 ardently abuse his cabinet post, destroy his reputation?
2484 01:53:07 Welcome, folks, to the Adams administration!
2485 01:53:11 Jefferson's the runner-up, which makes him the vice president
2486 01:53:15 Washington can't help you now, no more Mr. Nice President
2487 01:53:18 Adams fires Hamilton
2488 01:53:20 Privately calls him "creole bastard" in his taunts
2489 01:53:23 Say what?
2490 01:53:24 Hamilton publishes his response
2491 01:53:27 Sit down, John, you fat mother--
2492 01:53:32 Hamilton's out of control.
2493 01:53:33 This is great. He's out of power, he holds no office,
2494 01:53:37 and he just destroyed President John Adams,
2495 01:53:40 the only other significant member of his party.
2496 01:53:42 Hamilton is a host unto himself.
2497 01:53:44 As long as he can hold a pen, he's a threat.
2498 01:53:47 Let's let him know what we know.
2499 01:53:51 Mr. Vice President
2500 01:53:54 Mr. Madison
2501 01:53:56 Senator Burr
2502 01:53:59 What is this?
2503 01:54:00 We have the check stubs from separate accounts
2504 01:54:03 Almost a thousand dollars paid in different amounts
2505 01:54:06 To a Mr. James Reynolds way back in 1791
2506 01:54:09 Is that what you have? Are you done?
2507 01:54:11 You are uniquely situated by virtue of your position
2508 01:54:14 Though "virtue" is not a word I'd apply to this situation
2509 01:54:17 To seek financial gain astray from your sacred mission
2510 01:54:20 And the evidence suggests you've engaged in speculation
2511 01:54:23 An immigrant embezzling our government funds
2512 01:54:25 I can almost see the headline your career is done
2513 01:54:28 I hope you saved some money for your daughter and sons
2514 01:54:31 You best g'wan run back where you come from
2515 01:54:35 You don't even know what you're asking me to confess
2516 01:54:38 Confess
2517 01:54:40 You have nothing I don't have to tell you anything at all
2518 01:54:43 - Unless - Unless
2519 01:54:45 If I can prove that I never broke the law
2520 01:54:47 Do you promise not to tell another soul what you saw?
2521 01:54:51 No one else was in the room where it happened
2522 01:54:54 Is that a yes?
2523 01:54:55 Um, yes.
2524 01:55:05 "Dear sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health
2525 01:55:08 And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth
2526 01:55:11 In the pockets of people like me down on their luck
2527 01:55:14 You see, that was my wife who you decided to--"
2528 01:55:16 What?
2529 01:55:17 She courted me, escorted me to bed
2530 01:55:19 And when she had me in a corner
2531 01:55:21 That's when Reynolds extorted me
2532 01:55:22 For a sordid fee, I paid him quarterly
2533 01:55:24 I may have mortally wounded my prospects
2534 01:55:26 But my papers are orderly
2535 01:55:28 As you can see,
2536 01:55:29 I kept a record of every check in my checkered history
2537 01:55:32 Check it again against your list and see consistency
2538 01:55:35 I never spent a cent that wasn't mine
2539 01:55:37 You sent the dogs after my scent, that's fine
2540 01:55:39 Yes, I have reasons for shame
2541 01:55:41 But I have not committed treason and sullied my good name
2542 01:55:45 As you can see,
2543 01:55:46 I have done nothing to provoke legal action
2544 01:55:48 Are my answers to your satisfaction?
2545 01:55:53 My God.
2546 01:55:55 Gentlemen, let's go.
2547 01:55:57 So?
2548 01:55:59 The people won't know what we know
2549 01:56:01 Burr.
2550 01:56:02 How do I know you won't use this against me
2551 01:56:05 The next time we go toe to toe?
2552 01:56:07 Alexander, rumors only grow
2553 01:56:11 And we both know what we know
2554 01:56:31 In the eye of a hurricane, there is quiet
2555 01:56:37 For just a moment
2556 01:56:41 A yellow sky
2557 01:56:44 When I was 17, a hurricane destroyed my town
2558 01:56:49 I didn't drown
2559 01:56:53 I couldn't seem to die
2560 01:56:57 I wrote my way out
2561 01:57:00 Wrote everything down far as I could see
2562 01:57:05 I wrote my way out
2563 01:57:08 I looked up and the town had its eyes on me
2564 01:57:14 They passed a plate around
2565 01:57:17 And total strangers
2566 01:57:20 Moved to kindness
2567 01:57:23 By my story
2568 01:57:27 Raised enough for me to book passage on a ship
2569 01:57:30 that was New York-bound
2570 01:57:33 I wrote my way out of hell, I wrote my way to revolution
2571 01:57:36 I was louder than the crack in the bell
2572 01:57:38 I wrote Eliza love letters until she fell
2573 01:57:41 I wrote about the Constitution and defended it well
2574 01:57:44 And in the face of ignorance and resistance
2575 01:57:47 I wrote financial systems into existence
2576 01:57:50 And when my prayers to God were met with indifference
2577 01:57:52 I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance
2578 01:57:56 In the eye of a hurricane, there is quiet
2579 01:58:01 For just a moment
2580 01:58:05 A yellow sky
2581 01:58:08 I was 12 when my mother died, she was holding me
2582 01:58:13 We were sick and she was holding me
2583 01:58:16 I couldn't seem to die
2584 01:58:20 Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it
2585 01:58:22 I'll write my way out
2586 01:58:24 Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it
2587 01:58:25 Write everything down far as I can see
2588 01:58:29 Wait for it, wait for it. Wait for it, wait for it
2589 01:58:30 History has its eyes on you
2590 01:58:32 I'll write my way out
2591 01:58:35 Overwhelm them with honesty
2592 01:58:37 This is the eye of the hurricane
2593 01:58:39 This is the only way I can protect my legacy
2594 01:58:43 Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it. Wait
2595 01:58:46 The Reynolds pamphlet.
2596 01:58:50 The Reynolds pamphlet
2597 01:58:53 Have you read this?
2598 01:58:54 Alexander Hamilton had a torrid affair
2599 01:58:58 And he wrote it down right there
2600 01:59:00 Highlights!
2601 01:59:01 "The charge against me is a connection with one James Reynolds
2602 01:59:05 For purposes of improper speculation
2603 01:59:08 My real crime is an amorous connection with his wife
2604 01:59:11 For a considerable time with his knowing consent"
2605 01:59:14 Damn
2606 01:59:15 "I had frequent meetings with her, most of them at my own house"
2607 01:59:19 - At his own house - At his own house
2608 01:59:21 Damn
2609 01:59:21 "Mrs. Hamilton, with our children
2610 01:59:23 Being absent on a visit to her father"
2611 01:59:26 No
2612 01:59:27 Have you read this?
2613 01:59:28 He's never gon' be president now
2614 01:59:30 Never gon' be president now
2615 01:59:31 Never gon' be president now
2616 01:59:33 Never gon' be president now
2617 01:59:35 Well, never gon' be president now
2618 01:59:36 Never gon' be president now
2619 01:59:38 That's one less thing to worry about
2620 01:59:40 That's one less thing to worry about
2621 01:59:43 - I came as soon as I heard. - What?
2622 01:59:45 Angelica all the way from London?
2623 01:59:48 Damn!
2624 01:59:48 Angelica, thank God someone who understands
2625 01:59:51 What I'm struggling here to do
2626 01:59:53 I'm not here for you.
2627 01:59:56 I know my sister like I know my own mind
2628 01:59:58 You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind
2629 02:00:02 I love my sister more than anything in this life
2630 02:00:05 I will choose her happiness over mine every time
2631 02:00:09 Put what we had aside, I'm standing at her side
2632 02:00:13 You could never be satisfied. God, I hope you're satisfied
2633 02:00:16 He's never gon' be president now
2634 02:00:18 Never gon' be president now
2635 02:00:19 He's never gon' be president now
2636 02:00:21 Never gon' be president now
2637 02:00:22 He's never gon' be president now
2638 02:00:24 Never gon' be president now
2639 02:00:26 That's one less thing to worry about
2640 02:00:27 That's one less thing to worry about
2641 02:00:29 He's never gon' be president now
2642 02:00:33 He's never gon' be president now
2643 02:00:34 He's never gon' be president now
2644 02:00:36 He's never gon' be president now
2645 02:00:38 At least he was honest with our money
2646 02:00:39 That's one less thing to worry about
2647 02:00:41 That's one less thing to worry about
2648 02:00:43 The Reynolds pamphlet.
2649 02:00:47 Have you read this?
2650 02:00:50 You ever see somebody ruin their own life?
2651 02:00:55 His poor wife
2652 02:01:11 I saved every letter you wrote me
2653 02:01:16 From the moment I read them I knew you were mine
2654 02:01:20 You said you were mine
2655 02:01:22 I thought you were mine
2656 02:01:28 Do you know what Angelica said
2657 02:01:30 When we saw your first letter arrive?
2658 02:01:34 She said "Be careful with that one, love
2659 02:01:38 He will do what it takes to survive"
2660 02:01:41 You and your words flooded my senses
2661 02:01:45 Your sentences left me defenseless
2662 02:01:48 You built me palaces out of paragraphs
2663 02:01:52 You built cathedrals
2664 02:01:56 I'm rereading the letters you wrote me
2665 02:02:00 I'm searching and scanning for answers
2666 02:02:03 In every line for some kind of sign
2667 02:02:06 And when you were mine
2668 02:02:10 The world seemed
2669 02:02:12 To burn
2670 02:02:19 Burn
2671 02:02:26 You published the letters she wrote you
2672 02:02:30 You told the whole world how you brought this girl into our bed
2673 02:02:34 In clearing your name
2674 02:02:36 You have ruined our lives
2675 02:02:42 Do you know what Angelica said
2676 02:02:45 When she read what you'd done?
2677 02:02:48 She said, "You've married an Icarus
2678 02:02:52 He's flown too close to the sun"
2679 02:02:55 You and your words obsessed with your legacy
2680 02:03:00 Your sentences border on senseless
2681 02:03:03 And you are paranoid in every paragraph
2682 02:03:07 How they perceive you
2683 02:03:11 You, you, you
2684 02:03:20 I'm erasing myself from the narrative
2685 02:03:26 Let future historians wonder how Eliza reacted
2686 02:03:31 When you broke her heart
2687 02:03:34 You have torn it all apart
2688 02:03:36 I'm watching it burn
2689 02:03:44 Watching it burn
2690 02:03:50 The world has no right to my heart
2691 02:03:53 The world has no place in our bed
2692 02:03:56 They don't get to know what I said
2693 02:03:58 I'm burning the memories
2694 02:04:00 Burning the letters that might have redeemed you
2695 02:04:05 You forfeit all rights to my heart
2696 02:04:08 You forfeit the place in our bed
2697 02:04:10 You'll sleep in your office instead
2698 02:04:13 With only the memories
2699 02:04:15 Of when you were mine
2700 02:04:28 I hope that you
2701 02:04:31 Burn
2702 02:04:56 Meet the latest graduate of King's College
2703 02:04:59 I probably shouldn't brag
2704 02:05:00 But dag, I amaze and astonish
2705 02:05:01 The scholars say I got the same virtuosity and brains as my pops
2706 02:05:05 The ladies say my brain's not where the resemblance stops
2707 02:05:08 I'm only 19, but my mind is older
2708 02:05:10 Gotta be my own man, like my father, but bolder
2709 02:05:13 I shoulder his legacy with pride
2710 02:05:15 I used to hear him say that someday I would...
2711 02:05:18 Blow us all away
2712 02:05:19 Ladies, I'm looking for a Mr. George Eacker
2713 02:05:22 Made a speech last week, our Fourth of July speaker
2714 02:05:25 He disparaged my father's legacy In front of a crowd
2715 02:05:28 I can't have that, I'm making my father proud
2716 02:05:30 I saw him just up Broadway a couple of blocks
2717 02:05:33 He was going to see a play
2718 02:05:34 Well, I'll go visit his box
2719 02:05:35 God, you're a fox
2720 02:05:36 Y'all look pretty good in your frocks
2721 02:05:38 How 'bout when I get back we all strip down to our socks?
2722 02:05:41 Okay!
2723 02:05:43 Blow us all away
2724 02:05:52 George!
2725 02:05:53 - George. - I'm trying to watch the show.
2726 02:05:55 You should've watched your mouth
2727 02:05:56 Before you talked about my father though
2728 02:05:58 I didn't say anything that wasn't true
2729 02:06:00 Your father's a scoundrel and so, it seems, are you
2730 02:06:04 - It's like that? - Yeah, I don't fool around
2731 02:06:06 I'm not your little schoolboy friends
2732 02:06:07 Well, see you on the dueling ground
2733 02:06:09 That is, unless you wanna step outside and go now
2734 02:06:11 I know where to find you, piss off, I'm watching the show now
2735 02:06:20 Pops, if you had only heard the shit he said about you
2736 02:06:22 I doubt you would have let it slide and I was not about to
2737 02:06:24 - Slow down. - I came to ask you for advice
2738 02:06:26 This is my very first duel
2739 02:06:28 They don't exactly cover this subject in boarding school
2740 02:06:30 Did your friends attempt to negotiate a peace?
2741 02:06:33 He refused to apologize. We had to let the peace talks cease
2742 02:06:36 - Where is this happening? - Across the river, in Jersey
2743 02:06:39 Everything is legal in New Jersey
2744 02:06:41 All right
2745 02:06:43 So, this is what you're gonna do
2746 02:06:44 Stand there like a man until Eacker is in front of you
2747 02:06:47 When the time comes, fire your weapon in the air
2748 02:06:50 This will put an end to the whole affair
2749 02:06:53 But what if he decides to shoot? Then I'm a goner
2750 02:06:55 No, he'll follow suit if he's truly a man of honor
2751 02:06:58 To take someone's life, that is something you can't shake
2752 02:07:01 Philip, your mother can't take another heartbreak
2753 02:07:04 - Father-- - Promise me
2754 02:07:05 You don't want this young man's blood on your conscience
2755 02:07:09 Okay, I promise
2756 02:07:10 Come back home when you're done
2757 02:07:12 Take my guns, be smart
2758 02:07:13 Make me proud, son
2759 02:07:15 My name is Philip, I am a poet
2760 02:07:18 And I'm a little nervous but I can't show it
2761 02:07:21 I'm sorry, I'm a Hamilton with pride
2762 02:07:23 You talk about my father, I cannot let it slide
2763 02:07:26 Mr. Eacker, how was the rest of your show?
2764 02:07:29 I'd rather skip the pleasantries. Let's go
2765 02:07:31 - Grab your pistol. - Confer with your men
2766 02:07:34 The duel will commence after we count to ten
2767 02:07:36 Count to ten
2768 02:07:37 Look 'em in the eye, aim no higher
2769 02:07:39 Summon all the courage you require
2770 02:07:41 Then slowly and clearly, aim your gun towards the sky
2771 02:07:44 One, two, three, four, five, six, seven...
2772 02:07:53 Stay alive
2773 02:07:59 Stay alive
2774 02:08:00 Where's my son?
2775 02:08:01 Mr. Hamilton, come in.
2776 02:08:03 They brought him in a half an hour ago.
2777 02:08:05 He lost a lot of blood on the way over.
2778 02:08:06 - Is he alive? - Yes.
2779 02:08:07 But you have to understand,
2780 02:08:09 the bullet entered just above his hip and lodged in his right arm.
2781 02:08:11 - Can I see him, please? - I'm doing everything I can.
2782 02:08:14 But the wound was already infected when he arrived.
2783 02:08:20 Philip.
2784 02:08:23 Pa.
2785 02:08:25 I did exactly as you said, Pa
2786 02:08:29 I held my head up high
2787 02:08:31 I know, I know, shh
2788 02:08:32 - High. - I know, I know, shh
2789 02:08:34 I know you did everything just right
2790 02:08:37 Even before we got to ten
2791 02:08:40 I was aiming for the sky
2792 02:08:42 I know, I know, shh
2793 02:08:44 - I was aiming for the s-- - I know, I know, shh
2794 02:08:45 I know, save your strength and stay alive
2795 02:08:48 No!
2796 02:08:51 Eliza
2797 02:08:51 Is he breathing? Is he going to survive this?
2798 02:08:53 Stay alive
2799 02:08:55 Who did this?
2800 02:08:56 Alexander, did you know?
2801 02:08:59 Mom, I'm so sorry
2802 02:09:01 For forgetting what you taught me
2803 02:09:04 My son
2804 02:09:05 - We played piano. - I taught you piano
2805 02:09:09 You would put your hands on mine
2806 02:09:11 You changed the melody every time
2807 02:09:15 I would always change the line
2808 02:09:17 Shh, I know, I know
2809 02:09:18 I would always change the line
2810 02:09:20 I know, I know.
2811 02:09:22 Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf
2812 02:09:24 Un, deux, trois, quatre Cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf
2813 02:09:28 Good
2814 02:09:29 Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf
2815 02:09:30 Un, deux, trois...
2816 02:09:34 Sept, huit, neuf.
2817 02:09:36 Sept, huit...
2818 02:10:01 There are moments that the words don't reach
2819 02:10:05 There is suffering too terrible to name
2820 02:10:08 You hold your child as tight as you can
2821 02:10:13 And push away the unimaginable
2822 02:10:16 The moments when you're in so deep
2823 02:10:20 It feels easier to just swim down
2824 02:10:24 The Hamiltons move uptown
2825 02:10:27 And learn to live with the unimaginable
2826 02:10:31 I spend hours in the garden
2827 02:10:35 I walk alone to the store
2828 02:10:39 And it's quiet uptown
2829 02:10:43 I never liked the quiet before
2830 02:10:46 I take the children to church on Sunday
2831 02:10:51 A sign of the cross at the door
2832 02:10:54 And I pray
2833 02:10:58 That never used to happen before
2834 02:11:02 If you see him in the street
2835 02:11:04 Walking by himself
2836 02:11:06 Talking to himself
2837 02:11:07 Have pity
2838 02:11:09 Philip, you would like it uptown. It's quiet uptown
2839 02:11:13 He is working through the unimaginable
2840 02:11:17 His hair has gone grey
2841 02:11:19 He passes every day
2842 02:11:21 They say he walks the length of the city
2843 02:11:24 You knock me out
2844 02:11:25 I fall apart
2845 02:11:27 Can you imagine?
2846 02:11:39 Look at where we are
2847 02:11:43 Look at where we started
2848 02:11:46 I know I don't deserve you, Eliza
2849 02:11:50 But hear me out
2850 02:11:51 That would be enough
2851 02:11:54 If I could spare his life
2852 02:11:58 If I could trade his life for mine
2853 02:12:01 He'd be standing here right now
2854 02:12:05 And you would smile
2855 02:12:06 And that would be enough
2856 02:12:09 I don't pretend to know
2857 02:12:13 The challenges we're facing
2858 02:12:17 I know there's no replacing
2859 02:12:19 What we've lost
2860 02:12:22 And you need time
2861 02:12:24 But I'm not afraid
2862 02:12:28 I know who I married
2863 02:12:31 Just let me stay here by your side
2864 02:12:36 That would be enough
2865 02:12:39 If you see him in the street
2866 02:12:41 Walking by her side
2867 02:12:43 Talking by her side
2868 02:12:45 Have pity
2869 02:12:46 Eliza, do you like it uptown? It's quiet uptown
2870 02:12:51 He is trying to do the unimaginable
2871 02:12:55 See them walking in the park
2872 02:12:57 Long after dark
2873 02:12:58 Taking in the sights of the city
2874 02:13:01 Look around, look around, Eliza
2875 02:13:06 They are trying to do the unimaginable
2876 02:13:10 There are moments that the words don't reach
2877 02:13:13 There's a grace too powerful to name
2878 02:13:17 We push away what we can never understand
2879 02:13:21 We push away the unimaginable
2880 02:13:25 They are standing in the garden
2881 02:13:29 Alexander by Eliza's side
2882 02:13:33 She takes his hand
2883 02:13:38 It's quiet uptown
2884 02:13:41 Forgiveness
2885 02:13:45 Can you imagine?
2886 02:13:49 Forgiveness
2887 02:13:52 Can you imagine?
2888 02:13:57 If you see him in the street
2889 02:13:59 Walking by her side
2890 02:14:01 Talking by her side
2891 02:14:02 Have pity
2892 02:14:08 They are going through the unimaginable
2893 02:14:33 The election of 1800.
2894 02:14:36 - Can we get back to politics? - Uh, please.
2895 02:14:39 Yo, every action has its equal opposite reaction
2896 02:14:43 John Adams shat the bed
2897 02:14:44 I love the guy, but he's in traction
2898 02:14:47 Poor Alexander Hamilton, he is missing in action
2899 02:14:50 So now I'm facing Aaron Burr
2900 02:14:52 With his own faction
2901 02:14:54 He's very attractive in the north, New Yorkers like his chances
2902 02:14:57 He's not very forthcoming on any particular stances
2903 02:15:01 Ask him a question, it glances off, he obfuscates, he dances
2904 02:15:04 And they say I'm a Francophile
2905 02:15:06 At least they know I know where France is
2906 02:15:08 Thomas, that's the problem, see
2907 02:15:09 They see Burr as a less extreme you
2908 02:15:12 You need to change course,
2909 02:15:13 a key endorsement might redeem you
2910 02:15:15 Who did you have in mind?
2911 02:15:18 - Don't laugh. - Who is it?
2912 02:15:20 You used to work on the same staff.
2913 02:15:22 - What? - It might be nice
2914 02:15:24 It might be nice
2915 02:15:27 To get Hamilton on your side
2916 02:15:30 It might be nice
2917 02:15:31 It might be nice
2918 02:15:34 To get Hamilton on your side
2919 02:15:37 Talk less
2920 02:15:38 Smile more!
2921 02:15:40 Don't let them know what you're against or what you're for
2922 02:15:44 Shake hands with him
2923 02:15:45 Charm her
2924 02:15:47 It's 1800. Ladies, tell your husbands, "Vote for Burr!"
2925 02:15:51 I don't like Adams.
2926 02:15:52 Well, he's gonna lose. That's just defeatist.
2927 02:15:55 And Jefferson?
2928 02:15:56 - In love with France. - Yeah, he's so elitist.
2929 02:15:58 I like that Aaron Burr.
2930 02:15:59 I can't believe we're here with him.
2931 02:16:02 He seems approachable.
2932 02:16:03 Like you could grab a beer with him.
2933 02:16:05 Dear Mr. Hamilton, your fellow Federalists
2934 02:16:09 Would like to know how you'll be voting
2935 02:16:11 It's quiet uptown
2936 02:16:12 Dear Mr. Hamilton, John Adams doesn't stand a chance
2937 02:16:16 So who are you promoting
2938 02:16:18 It's quiet uptown
2939 02:16:19 Jefferson or Burr
2940 02:16:22 We know it's lose-lose
2941 02:16:23 Jefferson or Burr
2942 02:16:25 But if you had to choose
2943 02:16:26 Dear Mr. Hamilton
2944 02:16:29 John Adams doesn't stand a chance
2945 02:16:30 So who are you promoting?
2946 02:16:32 But if you had to choose?
2947 02:16:34 Well, if it isn't Aaron Burr, sir
2948 02:16:37 - Alexander! - You've created quite a stir, sir
2949 02:16:40 - I'm going door-to-door - You're openly campaigning?
2950 02:16:42 - Sure - That's new
2951 02:16:44 Honestly, it's kind of draining
2952 02:16:45 - Burr. - Sir.
2953 02:16:46 Is there anything you wouldn't do?
2954 02:16:48 No. I'm chasing what I want.
2955 02:16:50 - And you know what? - What?
2956 02:16:52 I learned that from you.
2957 02:16:56 If you had to choose
2958 02:16:58 It's a tie.
2959 02:17:00 If you had to choose
2960 02:17:02 It's up to the delegates.
2961 02:17:03 If you had to choose
2962 02:17:06 It's up to Hamilton!
2963 02:17:07 If you had to choose
2964 02:17:08 Jefferson or Burr
2965 02:17:10 Choose, choose, choose
2966 02:17:13 The people are asking to hear my voice
2967 02:17:17 The country is facing a difficult choice
2968 02:17:20 And if you were to ask me who I'd promote
2969 02:17:24 Jefferson has my vote.
2970 02:17:28 I have never agreed with Jefferson once
2971 02:17:31 We have fought on like, 75 different fronts
2972 02:17:35 But when all is said and all is done
2973 02:17:37 Jefferson has beliefs
2974 02:17:39 Burr has none
2975 02:17:41 Well, I'll be damned
2976 02:17:43 Well, I'll be damned
2977 02:17:46 Hamilton's on your side
2978 02:17:48 Well, I'll be damned
2979 02:17:50 Well, I'll be damned
2980 02:17:52 And?
2981 02:17:53 You won in a landslide.
2982 02:17:55 Congrats on a race well run
2983 02:17:58 I did give you a fight
2984 02:18:02 I look forward to our partnership.
2985 02:18:05 - Our partnership? - As your vice president.
2986 02:18:07 Yeah, right.
2987 02:18:10 You hear this guy?
2988 02:18:11 Man openly campaigns against me,
2989 02:18:13 talkin' 'bout, "I look forward to our partnership."
2990 02:18:15 It is crazy that the guy who comes in second
2991 02:18:17 gets to be vice president.
2992 02:18:19 You know what? We can change that.
2993 02:18:20 - You know why? - Why?
2994 02:18:21 'Cause I'm the president.
2995 02:18:25 Burr, uh, when you see Hamilton,
2996 02:18:28 thank him for the endorsement.
2997 02:18:36 How does Hamilton
2998 02:18:38 An arrogant, immigrant, orphan, bastard, whore's son
2999 02:18:42 Somehow endorse Thomas Jefferson, his enemy
3000 02:18:46 A man he's despised since the beginning
3001 02:18:49 Just to keep me from winning?
3002 02:18:51 I wanna be in the room where it happens
3003 02:18:54 The room where it happens
3004 02:18:56 The room where it happens
3005 02:18:58 You've kept me from the room where it happens
3006 02:19:02 For the last time
3007 02:19:12 Dear Alexander
3008 02:19:15 I am slow to anger
3009 02:19:17 But I toe the line
3010 02:19:19 As I reckon with the effects of your life on mine
3011 02:19:23 I look back on where I failed
3012 02:19:25 And in every place I checked
3013 02:19:28 The only common thread has been your disrespect
3014 02:19:32 Now you call me amoral
3015 02:19:34 A dangerous disgrace
3016 02:19:36 If you've got something to say
3017 02:19:38 Name a time and place face-to-face
3018 02:19:41 I have the honor to be your obedient servant
3019 02:19:47 A dot Burr
3020 02:19:48 Mr. Vice President
3021 02:19:50 I am not the reason no one trusts you
3022 02:19:52 No one knows what you believe
3023 02:19:53 I will not equivocate on my opinion
3024 02:19:56 I have always worn it on my sleeve
3025 02:19:58 Even if I said what you think I said
3026 02:20:00 You would need to cite a more specific grievance
3027 02:20:02 Here's an itemized list of 30 years of disagreements
3028 02:20:06 Sweet Jesus.
3029 02:20:07 Hey, I have not been shy
3030 02:20:08 I am just a guy in the public eye
3031 02:20:10 Trying to do my best for our republic
3032 02:20:12 I don't wanna fight
3033 02:20:13 But I won't apologize for doing what's right
3034 02:20:16 I have the honor to be your obedient servant
3035 02:20:22 A dot Ham
3036 02:20:24 Careful how you proceed, good man
3037 02:20:27 Intemperate indeed, good man
3038 02:20:29 Answer for the accusations I lay at your feet
3039 02:20:32 Or prepare to bleed, good man
3040 02:20:33 Burr, your grievance is legitimate
3041 02:20:35 I stand by what I said, every bit of it
3042 02:20:38 You stand only for yourself. It's what you do
3043 02:20:40 I can't apologize because it's true
3044 02:20:42 Then stand, Alexander.
3045 02:20:44 Weehawken. Dawn.
3046 02:20:47 Guns. Drawn.
3047 02:20:49 You're on.
3048 02:20:51 I have the honor to be your obedient servant
3049 02:20:57 A dot Ham
3050 02:20:59 A dot Burr
3051 02:21:14 Alexander, come back to sleep
3052 02:21:18 I have an early meeting out of town
3053 02:21:21 - It's still dark outside. - I know.
3054 02:21:25 I just need to write something down
3055 02:21:27 Why do you write like you're running out of time?
3056 02:21:31 Come back to bed. That would be enough
3057 02:21:35 I'll be back before you know I'm gone
3058 02:21:37 Come back to sleep
3059 02:21:40 This meeting's at dawn
3060 02:21:42 Well, I'm going back to sleep
3061 02:21:48 Best of wives and best of women
3062 02:21:58 One, two, three, four Five, six, seven, eight, nine
3063 02:22:02 There are ten things you need to know
3064 02:22:03 Number one
3065 02:22:05 We rowed across the Hudson at dawn
3066 02:22:07 My friend, William P. Van Ness signed on as my number two
3067 02:22:10 Number two
3068 02:22:11 Hamilton arrived with his crew
3069 02:22:13 Nathaniel Pendleton and a doctor that he knew
3070 02:22:16 Number three
3071 02:22:17 I watched Hamilton examine the terrain
3072 02:22:19 I wish I could tell you what was happening in his brain
3073 02:22:22 This man has poisoned my political pursuits
3074 02:22:25 Most disputes die, and no one shoots
3075 02:22:28 Number four
3076 02:22:29 Hamilton drew first position
3077 02:22:32 Looking to the world like a man on a mission
3078 02:22:35 This is a soldier with a marksman's ability
3079 02:22:38 The doctor turned around so he could have deniability
3080 02:22:41 Five
3081 02:22:42 Now, I didn't know this at the time
3082 02:22:43 But we were near the same spot your son died
3083 02:22:46 Is that why
3084 02:22:47 Six
3085 02:22:48 He examined his gun with such rigor?
3086 02:22:50 I watched as he methodically fiddled with the trigger
3087 02:22:53 Seven
3088 02:22:54 Confession time. Here's what I got
3089 02:22:56 My fellow soldiers'll tell you I'm a terrible shot
3090 02:22:59 Number eight
3091 02:23:00 Your last chance to negotiate
3092 02:23:02 Send in your seconds
3093 02:23:03 See if they can set the record straight
3094 02:23:06 They won't teach you this in your classes
3095 02:23:08 But look it up, Hamilton was wearing his glasses
3096 02:23:11 Why, if not to take deadly aim?
3097 02:23:15 It's him or me. The world will never be the same
3098 02:23:18 I had only one thought before the slaughter
3099 02:23:21 This man will not make an orphan of my daughter
3100 02:23:24 Number nine
3101 02:23:25 Look him in the eyes, aim no higher
3102 02:23:27 Summon all the courage you require
3103 02:23:30 Then count
3104 02:23:30 One, two, three, four Five, six, seven, eight, nine
3105 02:23:34 - Number! - Ten paces!
3106 02:23:35 Fire!
3107 02:23:37 I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory
3108 02:23:40 Is this where it gets me
3109 02:23:42 On my feet, several feet ahead of me?
3110 02:23:45 I see it coming
3111 02:23:45 Do I run or fire my gun or let it be?
3112 02:23:49 There is no beat, no melody
3113 02:23:52 Burr, my first friend, my enemy
3114 02:23:56 Maybe the last face I ever see
3115 02:23:58 If I throw away my shot
3116 02:24:01 Is this how you remember me?
3117 02:24:05 What if this bullet is my legacy?
3118 02:24:07 Legacy
3119 02:24:09 What is a legacy?
3120 02:24:11 It's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see
3121 02:24:14 I wrote some notes at the beginning of a song
3122 02:24:16 someone will sing for me
3123 02:24:17 America, you great unfinished symphony
3124 02:24:20 You sent for me. You let me make a difference
3125 02:24:22 A place where even orphan immigrants
3126 02:24:24 Can leave their fingerprints and rise up
3127 02:24:26 I'm running out of time, I'm running and my time's up
3128 02:24:29 Wise up, eyes up
3129 02:24:32 I catch a glimpse of the other side
3130 02:24:34 Laurens leads a soldiers' chorus on the other side
3131 02:24:37 My son is on the other side
3132 02:24:39 He's with my mother on the other side
3133 02:24:41 Washington is watching from the other side
3134 02:24:43 Teach me how to say goodbye
3135 02:24:46 Rise up. Rise up. Rise up.
3136 02:24:49 Eliza!
3137 02:24:50 My love, take your time.
3138 02:24:56 I'll see you on the other side.
3139 02:25:09 Raise a glass to freedom
3140 02:25:12 He aims his pistol at the sky.
3141 02:25:14 Wait!
3142 02:25:19 I strike him right between his ribs
3143 02:25:25 I walk towards him, but I am ushered away
3144 02:25:32 They row him back across the Hudson
3145 02:25:37 I get a drink
3146 02:25:44 I hear wailing in the streets
3147 02:25:49 Somebody tells me, "You'd better hide"
3148 02:25:55 They say Angelica and Eliza
3149 02:26:00 Were both at his side when he died
3150 02:26:04 Death doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints
3151 02:26:08 It takes and it takes and it takes
3152 02:26:11 History obliterates in every picture it paints
3153 02:26:15 It paints me in all my mistakes
3154 02:26:18 When Alexander aimed at the sky
3155 02:26:21 He may have been the first one to die
3156 02:26:24 But I'm the one who paid for it
3157 02:26:28 I survived, but I paid for it
3158 02:26:34 Now I'm the villain in your history
3159 02:26:40 I was too young and blind to see
3160 02:26:46 I should've known, I should've known
3161 02:26:50 The world was wide enough
3162 02:26:53 For both Hamilton and me
3163 02:27:01 The world was wide enough
3164 02:27:04 For both Hamilton and me
3165 02:27:17 Let me tell you what I wish I'd known
3166 02:27:20 When I was young and dreamed of glory
3167 02:27:23 You have no control
3168 02:27:25 Who lives? Who dies? Who tells your story?
3169 02:27:29 President Jefferson.
3170 02:27:30 I'll give him this, his financial system is a work of genius.
3171 02:27:34 I couldn't undo it if I tried.
3172 02:27:37 And I tried.
3173 02:27:38 Who lives? Who dies? Who tells your story?
3174 02:27:42 President Madison.
3175 02:27:44 He took our country from bankruptcy to prosperity.
3176 02:27:47 I hate to admit it, but he doesn't get enough credit
3177 02:27:49 for all the credit that he gave us.
3178 02:27:52 Who lives? Who dies? Who tells your story?
3179 02:27:55 Every other founding father's story gets told
3180 02:27:58 Every other founding father gets to grow old
3181 02:28:02 And when you're gone who remembers your name?
3182 02:28:04 Who keeps your flame? Who tells your story?
3183 02:28:07 Who tells your story?
3184 02:28:15 Eliza
3185 02:28:17 I put myself back in the narrative
3186 02:28:21 Eliza
3187 02:28:22 I stop wasting time on tears
3188 02:28:25 I live another 50 years
3189 02:28:27 It's not enough
3190 02:28:28 Eliza
3191 02:28:29 I interview every soldier who fought by your side
3192 02:28:32 She tells our story
3193 02:28:34 I try to make sense of your thousands of pages of writings
3194 02:28:38 You really do write like you're running out of time
3195 02:28:41 I rely on Angelica
3196 02:28:44 While she's alive
3197 02:28:45 We tell your story
3198 02:28:48 She is buried in Trinity Church
3199 02:28:50 Near you
3200 02:28:51 When I needed her most she was right on time
3201 02:28:55 And I'm still not through
3202 02:28:56 I ask myself, "What would you do if you had more time?"
3203 02:29:01 The Lord, in his kindness, he gives me what you always wanted
3204 02:29:05 He gives me more time
3205 02:29:07 I raise funds in DC for the Washington Monument
3206 02:29:10 She tells my story
3207 02:29:13 I speak out against slavery
3208 02:29:15 You could have done so much more if you only had time
3209 02:29:20 And when my time is up, have I done enough?
3210 02:29:23 Will they tell our story?
3211 02:29:30 Can I show you what I'm proudest of?
3212 02:29:36 The orphanage
3213 02:29:38 I establish the first private orphanage In New York City
3214 02:29:43 The orphanage
3215 02:29:45 I help to raise hundreds of children
3216 02:29:49 I get to see them growing up
3217 02:29:50 The orphanage
3218 02:29:52 In their eyes I see you, Alexander
3219 02:29:56 I see you every time
3220 02:29:59 And when my time is up, have I done enough?
3221 02:30:02 Will they tell my story?
3222 02:30:02 Will they tell your story?
3223 02:30:08 Oh, I can't wait to see you again
3224 02:30:13 It's only a matter of time
3225 02:30:21 Will they tell your story?
3226 02:30:23 Time
3227 02:30:26 Who lives? Who dies? Who tells your story?
3228 02:30:30 Time
3229 02:30:35 Will they tell your story?
3230 02:30:38 Time
3231 02:30:41 Who lives? Who dies?
3232 02:30:43 Who tells your story?
