Phillip: Look! Grandpa's in the paper! "War hero Phillip Schuyler in danger of loosing Senate to young upstart...Aaron Burr?" Grandpa might loose his seat in the Senate."

Eliza: I thought he was unopposed?

Phillip: Not according to the paper he isn't.

Eliza: Go make sure the door is closed!

Phillip & Eliza: Further down, further down, see Schuyler has a challenger from New York! New York! For Senator, Burr!

ElizaI gotta go! I gotta find Alexander!

Phillip: Let him know were on his side.

Eliza: No. He'll consider this a personal slander. I gotta stop a homicide!

Phillip: Oh!

Phillip & Eliza: Look around. We should look around!

Eliza: Let's go and find your father down in New York!

Alexander:Burr! Since when are you a Democratic Republican?

Burr: Since being one put me on the up and up again!

Alexander:No one knows who you are or what you do!

Burr: They don't need to know me, they don't like you.

Alexander: Excuse me?

Burr: All of Wall Street thinks your great. You'll always be adored by the things you create. But upstate, you the rascal who trades away the capital.

Alexander: Wait

Burr: The asshole who taxes the alcohol!

Alexander: I've always considered you a friend.

Burr: I don't see why that has to end. A senate seat was up for grabs so I took it. Its not my fault people think your crooked.

Alexander: You're gonna make a fool of me through my father in law?

Burr:There's the kid who almost shot Charles Lee in the jaw. My god, your pride will be the death of us all. Beware, it goeth before the fall!

Eliza: Alexander, there you are!

Alexander: Eliza

Eliza: You forgot your papers! Mr Burr, good sir! Its been so long. How are the Theodosia's?

Burr: As a matter of fact, my wife has taken I'll.

Eliza: I'm not surprised. With what the chill. You'll send her our regards?

BurrI will.

Eliza: And how's your daughter?

Burr: She's my pride and joy! Fluent in French and Latin.

Phillip: So am I!

Burr: She's the same age as your boy!

Alexander: Yeah, one day he'll run Manhattan!

Eliza: We must be going Burr, but send your girls our love.

Alexander: Were not done mister Burr, sir!

Eliza: Hon,

Burr: If I were you, I'd stick with her sir.
