Phee: Oh joy, it's Alexander messing everything up again.
*Alex appears*
Alex: Oh my god she's a witch I tell you a witch
[Washington:]
The issue on the table: France is on the verge of war with England
And do we provide aid and troops to our French allies or do we stay out of it?
Remember, my decision on this matter is not subject to congressional approval
The only person you have to convince is me
Secretary Jefferson, you have the floor, sir
Laf: Oh. It's this
Hercules: sweet jesus he's scary isn't he
Laurens: Rest in peace Alex.
[Jefferson:]
When we were on death's door, when we were needy
We made a promise, we signed a treaty
We needed money and guns and half a chance
Uh, who provided those funds?
[Madison:]
France
Alex: who's the parrot now
Jefferson: Hamilton I will-
Madison: Thomas there's no way you'll win an argument he talked for 6 hours straight.
[Jefferson:]
In return, they didn't ask for land
Only a promise that we'd lend a hand
And stand with them if they fought against oppressors
And revolution is messy but now is the time to stand
Stand with our brothers as they fight against tyranny
I know that Alexander Hamilton is here and he
Would rather not have this debate
I'll remind you that he is not Secretary of State
He knows nothing of loyalty
Smells like new money, dresses like fake royalty
Desperate to rise above his station
Everything he does betrays the ideals of our nation
Angelica: Roasted
Eliza: ... oh
[Ensemble:]
Ooh!
Theo: That's a good roast
[Jefferson:]
Hey, and if ya don't know, now ya know, Mr. President
[Washington:]
Thank you, Secretary Jefferson. Secretary Hamilton, your response
Seabury: Let's see his response to this
[Hamilton:]
You must be out of your Goddamn mind if you think
The President is gonna bring the nation to the brink
Of meddling in the middle of a military mess
A game of chess, where France is Queen and Kingless
We signed a treaty with a King whose head is now in a basket
Would you like to take it out and ask it?
"Should we honor our treaty, King Louis' head?"
"Uh... do whatever you want, I'm super dead."
Laf: ExCUSE MOI
Lee: Oh god.
[Washington:]
Enough! Enough. Hamilton is right
Laf: I'm offended. Really.
Washington: I'm sorry Lafayette, but America was too new to fight in another war
[Jefferson:]
Mr. President—
Jefferson: Betrayal
[Washington:]
We're too fragile to start another fight
[Jefferson:]
But sir, do we not fight for freedom?
[Washington:]
Sure, when the French figure out who's gonna lead 'em
[Jefferson:]
The people are leading
Laf: Exactly! Just like America, no?
Washington: Not exactly. I was the face of the rule, while Congress was our "leader" in that time. After that, I was the main leader of the democracy of America.
[Washington:]
The people are rioting
There's a difference. Frankly, it's a little disquieting you would let your ideals blind you to reality
Hamilton
[Hamilton:]
Sir
[Washington:]
Draft a statement of neutrality
[Jefferson:]
Did you forget Lafayette?
Laf: Yeah did you?
Alex: I plead the 5th
[Hamilton:]
What?
[Jefferson:]
Have you an ounce of regret?
You accumulate debt, you accumulate power
Yet in their hour of need, you forget
[Hamilton:]
Lafayette's a smart man, he'll be fine
And before he was your friend, he was mine
If we try to fight in every revolution in the world, we never stop
Where do we draw the line?
Laf: Thanks for the compliments, but we asked you for your help.
Peggy: Abandonment at it's finest
George: Politics is a cruel world
[Jefferson:]
So quick-witted
[Hamilton:]
Alas, I admit it
Burr: Did you just forget what I said to you before??
[Jefferson:]
I bet you were quite a lawyer
[Hamilton:]
My defendants got acquitted
Maria: Oh.
Eacker: Took me a moment to understand
[Jefferson:]
Yeah. Well, someone oughta remind you
[Hamilton:]
What?
[Jefferson:]
You're nothing without Washington behind you
Phillip: I'm sure he's something without Washington. Dad's paved a new road in history for America.
Alex: Thanks Phillip.
[Washington:]
Hamilton!
[Jefferson:]
Daddy's calling!
Washington: That was ill-timed.
King George: Awfully timed.
