*I don't own anything besides my changes*
[HAMILTON]
Mrs. President, you asked to see me?
[WASHINGTON]
I know you're busy
[HAMILTON]
What do you need, ma'am? Ma'am?
[WASHINGTON]
I wanna give you a word of warning
[HAMILTON]
Ma'am, I don't know what you heard
But whatever it is, Jefferson started it
[WASHINGTON]
Tarmara Jefferson resigned this morning
[HAMILTON]
You're kidding
[WASHINGTON]
I need a favor
[HAMILTON]
Whatever you say, ma'am, Jefferson will pay for her behavior
[WASHINGTON]
Shh. Talk less
[HAMILTON]
I'll use the press
I'll write under a pseudonym, you'll see what I can do to her—
[WASHINGTON]
I need you to draft an address
[HAMILTON]
Yes! She resigned. You can finally speak your mind—
[WASHINGTON]
No, she's stepping down so she can run for President
[HAMILTON]
Ha. Good luck defeating you, ma'am
[WASHINGTON]
I'm stepping down. I'm not running for President
[HAMILTON]
I'm sorry, what?
[WASHINGTON]
One last time
Relax, have a drink with me
One last time
Let's take a break tonight
And then we'll teach them how to say goodbye
To say goodbye
You and I
[HAMILTON]
No, ma'am, why?
[WASHINGTON]
I wanna talk about neutrality
[HAMILTON]
Ma'am, with Britain and France on the verge of war, is this the best time—
[WASHINGTON]
I want to warn against partisan fighting
[HAMILTON]
But—
[WASHINGTON]
Pick up a pen, start writing
I wanna talk about what I have learned
The hard-won wisdom I have earned
[HAMILTON]
