Look! Grampa's in the paper!

Alex gives Burr a glare and he sinks down.

'War Hero Philip Schuyler loses Senate seat to young upstart Aaron Burr!'
Grampa just lost his seat in the Senate

Sometimes that's how it goes

Daddy's gonna find out any minute

I'm sure he already know

"I did right away-"

Further down
Further down
"Let's meet the newest Senator from New York..."
New York—
Our Senator!

Burr!
Since when are you a Democratic-Republican?

Since being one put me on the up and up again

No one knows who you are or what you do

They don't need to know me. They don't like you

Excuse me?

Washington turns over to Burr, which made him sink down even more.

Oh, Wall Street thinks you're great
You'll always be adored by the things you create
But upstate

Wait

People think you're crooked!
And Schuyler's seat was up for grabs, so I took it

I've always considered you a friend

I don't see why that has to end!

"Says the same dude that fucking shot him," Laurens mutters to himself.

You changed parties to run against my father-in-law

I changed parties to seize the opportunity I saw
I swear, your pride will be the death of us all!
Beware: it goeth before the fall

The issue on the table:
France is on the verge of war with England.

Alex gives Jefferson a glare, so he doesn't say anything since he already explained.

Now do 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.
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,
Uhh who provided those funds? France

"France~" Lafayette murmured.

In return they didn't ask for land,
Only the 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 remind you that he is not Secretary of State!

"You really used that-" Philip says.

He knows nothing of loyalty. (nothing)
Smells like new money
Dresses like fake royalty.

That made Lee and Seabury laugh, which resulted a glare from Alex.

Desperate to rise above his station.
Everything he does betrays the ideals our nation.
Hey, and if you don't know now you know Mr. President.
Thank you Secretary Jefferson
Secretary Hamilton your response.
You must be out of your
GOD DAMN MIND!

That made all the children laugh.

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 king-less

"And I was blamed for the king..." Lafayette mutters and Mulligan put his hand on Lafayette's back.

We've signed a treaty with a king
Who's head is now in a basket
Would you like to take it out and ask it?
"Oh should we honor our treaty King Louis head?"
Uh do whatever you want, I'm super dead!

George laughed at that, even though it was about his home country.

Enough! Enough!
Hamilton is right (Mr. President)
We're too fragile to start another fight
(But sir do we not fight for freedom)
Sure, when the French figure out who's gonna lead 'em.
(The people are leading!)
The people are rioting, there's a difference
Frankly it's a little disquieting
You would let your ideals blind you to reality
Hamilton? (Sir) Draft the statement of neutrality.
Did you forget Lafayette? (What?)
Have you an ounce of regret?
You accumulate debt, you accumulate power
Yet in their hour of need you forget.
Lafayette's a smart man he'll be fine,
And before he was your friend he was mine.

"One I didn't want to tell anyone about Lafayette being in jail two he was my friend first," Alex stated.

If we try to fight in every revolution in the world
We never stop, where do we draw the line?
So quick witted
Alas, I admit it
I bet you were quite a lawyer
My defendants got aquitted
Yeah, well someone oughtta remind you (What?)
You're nothing without Washington behind you.

Washington looks over to Jefferson and he had a worried smile.

(Hamilton) Daddy's calling

"Fuck this shit I'm out!" Jefferson yells running out.
