An: oOoOoOoOh the chapter we have all been waiting for! Well, not really, my favorite song is dear theodosia, what's yours?
..................

"Ooooh a fan favorite right here!" Adi said excitedly.

" 'fan' favorite?" Herc asked.

"Oh, uh, when you like a certain movie or show, you are considered a 'fan' of that thing. A group of fans is called a 'fandom' " Adi explained.

They all just sort of stared at her, then the music started.

[BURR]
How does a ragtag volunteer army in need of a shower

Washington and burr snorted as the hamilsquad faked offense.

Somehow defeat a global superpower?
How do we emerge victorious from the quagmire?
Leave the battlefield waving Betsy Ross' flag higher?

Angelica perked up, hearing a womens name, something she wasn't used to been listening to politics or war stuff.

Adi jumped in, unable to resist.

Yo. Turns out we have a secret weapon!
An immigrant you know and love who's unafraid to step in!

Some people looked slightly confused, wondering who they were referring to. Although a few people managed to connect the dots.

He's constantly confusin', confoundin' the British henchmen
Ev'ryone give it up for America's favorite fighting Frenchman!

Adi just sang the ensemble pet, sense she sadly had no clue how to keep up with the actual song.

[COMPANY]
Lafayette!

[LAFAYETTE]
I'm takin this horse by the reins makin'
Redcoats redder with bloodstains

Adi danced in her seat, as the rest of the room started vibing.

[COMPANY]
Lafayette!

[LAFAYETTE]
And I'm never gonna stop until I make 'em
Drop and burn 'em up and scatter their remains, I'm

"That was incredibly fast!! But what did he say?" John asked. He was ignored.

[COMPANY]
Lafayette!

[LAFAYETTE]
Watch me engagin' em! Escapin' em!
Enragin' em! I'm—

Some jaws dropped as on-stage Laf make his iconic leap off the table.

[COMPANY]
Lafayette!

By now, almost everyone was yelling "Lafayette" with the music.

[LAFAYETTE]
I go to France for more funds

[COMPANY]
Lafayette!

[LAFAYETTE]
I come back with more

[LAFAYETTE AND ENSEMBLE]
Guns
And ships
And so the balance shifts

[WASHINGTON]
We rendezvous with Rochambeau, consolidate their gifts

[LAFAYETTE]
We can end this war at Yorktown,

"Guess you predicted correctly. " Herc elbowed his best friend.

cut them off at sea, but
For this to succeed, there is someone else we need:

[WASHINGTON]
I know

Adi continued Lafayette's part, because this part she could sing.

[WASHINGTON AND COMPANY]
Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE]
Sir, he knows what to do in a trench
Ingenuitive and fluent in French, I mean—

"Awe thanks laf!"

"Anytime, mon ami."

[WASHINGTON AND COMPANY]
Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE]
Sir, you're gonna have to use him eventually
What's he gonna do on the bench? I mean—

"How-how...?"

"is that a French accent?!" Hamilton asked.

Both me and Lafs actor are faking one, yes. How he rapped that fast with a fake accent I still don't know.

[WASHINGTON AND COMPANY]
Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE]
No one has more resilience
Or matches my practical tactical brilliance—

[WASHINGTON AND COMPANY]
Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE & COMPANY]
You wanna fight for your land back? (Hamilton!)

[WASHINGTON & WOMEN]
I need my right hand man back! (Hamilton!)

"Didn't you just send him home?" Thomas asked.

"Yeah... that was a mistake on my part."

[LAFAYETTE, (WOMEN),MEN]
Ah! Uh, get ya right hand man back
(Get your right hand man back!)
Hamilton!
You know you gotta get ya right hand man back
(Your right hand man back!)
Hamilton!
I mean you gotta put some thought into the letter
(Ha—ha—Hamilton)
But the sooner the better to get your right hand man back!
(Hamilton, ha—ha—)

[WASHINGTON]
Alexander Hamilton
Troops are waiting in the field for you
If you join us right now, together we can turn the tide
Oh, Alexander Hamilton
I have soldiers that will yield for you
If we manage to get this right
They'll surrender by early light
The world will never be the same, Alexander...

Wait..... the end of this song, is the same melody as the first one... UGH I'm done, that's it, this show is genius!!

No one else caught what Adi said, because they were too busy gawking at the screen.

"That was so cool!"

"Papa has such a, how your say, cool song!"

They all were super hyped, but Adi eventually calmed them down so they could see the next song.

An: hey guys! Sorry the end got kinda lazy...I will see you guys next time, adios!
