[COMPANY]
1776 New York City
[HAMILTON]
Pardon me, are you Aaron Burr, sir?
[BURR]
That depends, who's asking?
[HAMILTON]
Oh well sure, sir
I'm Alexander Hamilton
I'm at your service, sir
I have been looking for you
[BURR]
I'm getting nervous
[HAMILTON]
Sir, I heard your name at
Princeton I was seeking an accelerated course of study
When I got sort out of sorts with a buddy of yours
I may have punched him
It's a blur, sir
He handles the financials—
[BURR]
You punched the bursar?
[HAMILTON]
Yes, I wanted to do what you did
Graduate in two, then join the revolution
He looked at me like I was stupid
I'm not stupid
So how'd you do it?
How'd you graduate so fast?
[BURR]
It was my parents' dying wish before they passed
[HAMILTON]
You're an orphan
Of course, I'm an orphan
God, I wish there was a war!
Then we could prove that we're worth more
Than anyone bargained for
[BURR]
Can I buy you a drink?
[HAMILTON]
That would be nice
[BURR]
While we're talking, let me offer you some free advice
Talk less
[HAMILTON]
What?
[BURR]
Smile more
[HAMILTON]
Ha
