Kapitel 39: Blow Us All Away

[PHILIP]

Meet the latest graduate of King's College! I probably shouldn't brag, but dag, I amaze and astonish. The scholars say I have the same virtuosity and brains as my pops. The ladies say my brain's not where the resemblance stops. I'm only nineteen, but my mind is older! Gotta be my own man, like my father, but bolder! I shoulder his legacy with pride, I used to hear him say, someday, I would...

[COMPANY]

Blow us all away!

[PHILIP]

Ladies, I'm looking for a Mr George Eacker, made a speech last week, our 4th of July speaker. He disparaged my father's legacy in front of a crowd. I can't have that! I'm making my father proud!

[MARTHA]

I saw him just up Broadway a couple of blocks. He was going to see a play.

[PHILIP]

Well, I'll go visit his box.

[DOLLY]

God, you're a fox!

[PHILIP]

And y'all look pretty good in your frocks. How about when I get back we all strip down to our socks!

[DOLLY/MARTHA]

Ok!

[COMPANY]

Blow us all away!

[PHILIP]

George!

[GEORGE EACKER]

Shh!

[PHILIP]

George!

[EACKER]

Shh! I'm tryin' to watch the show!

[PHILIP]

You should've watched your mouth before you talked about my father though!

[EACKER]

I didn't say anything that wasn't true. Your father's a scoundrel and so, it seems, are you!

[COMPANY]

Ooh!

[PHILIP]

It's like that?

[EACKER]

Yeah, I don't fool around. I'm not your little schoolboy friends...

[PHILIP]

Well, see you on the duelling ground! That is unless you wanna step outside and go now?

[EACKER]

I know where to find you, piss off, I'm watching the show now.

[PHILIP]

Pops! If you have only heard the s**t he said about you! I doubt you would've let it slide and I was not about to!

[HAMILTON]

Slow down.

[PHILIP]

I came to ask you for advice. This is my very first duel. They don't exactly cover this subject in boarding school...

[HAMILTON]

Did your friend attempt to negotiate a peace?

[PHILIP]

He refused to apologise, we had to let the peace talk cease.

[HAMILTON]

Where is this happening?

[PHILIP]

Across the river, in Jersey.

[HAMILTON/PHILIP]

Everything is legal in New Jersey!

[HAMILTON]

Alright. So here's what you're gonna do. Stand there like a man until Eacker is in front of you. When the time comes, fire your weapon in the air. This will put an end to the whole affair.

[PHILIP]

But what if he decides to shoot? Then I'm a goner...

[HAMILTON]

No, he'll follow suit if he's truly a man of honour. To take someone's life, that is something you can't shake. Philip, your mother can't take another heartbreak.

[PHILIP]

Father!

[HAMILTON]

Promise me! You don't want this young man's blood on your conscience!

[PHILIP]

Ok, I promise!

[HAMILTON]

Come back home when you're done. Take my guns. Be smart. Make me proud, son.

[PHILIP]

My name is Philip. I am a poet. And I'm a little nervous but I can't show it. I'm sorry, I'm a Hamilton with pride! You talk about my father, I cannot let it slide! Mister Eacker, how was the rest of your show?

[EACKER]

I'd rather skip the pleasantries. Let's go! Grab your pistol!

[PHILIP]

Confer with your men! The duel will take place after we count to ten!

[COMPANY]

Count to ten!

[PHILIP]

Look 'em in the eye, aim no higher. Summon all the courage you require, then slowly and clearly aim your gun towards the sky!

[COMPANY]

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7!

*George Eacker shoots Philip*
