[Hamilton] Mr. Vice president Mr. Madison Senator Burr What is this? [Jefferson] We have the check stubs from separate accounts [Madison] Almost a thousand dollars, paid in different amounts [Burr] To a mr. James reynolds way back in Seventeen ninety-one [Hamilton] Is that what you have? Are you done? [Madison] You are uniquely situated by virtue of your position [Jefferson] Though virtue is not a word I’d apply to this situation [Madison] To seek financial gain, to stray from your sacred mission [Jefferson] And the evidence suggests you’ve engaged in speculation [Burr] An immigrant embezzling our government funds [Jefferson/madison] I can almost see the headline, your career is done [Burr] I hope you saved some money for your daughter and sons [Burr/jefferson/madison] Ya best g'wan run back where ya come from! [Hamilton] Ha! You don’t even know what you’re asking me to confess [Jefferson/madison/burr] Confess [Hamilton] You have nothing, I don’t have to tell you anything at all Unless [Jefferson/madison/burr] Unless [Hamilton] If I can prove that I never broke the law Do you promise not to tell another soul what you saw? [Burr] No one else was in the room where it happened [Hamilton] Is that a yes? [Jefferson/madison/burr] Um, yes [Burr] Dear sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth In the pockets of people like me: Down on their luck You see, it was my wife who you decided to [Jefferson] Whaaaat— [Hamilton] She courted me Escorted me to bed and when she had me in a corner That’s when reynolds extorted me For a sordid fee I paid him quarterly I may have mortally wounded my prospects But my papers are orderly! As you can see I kept a record of every check in my checkered History, check it again against your list n’ see consistency I never spent a cent that wasn’t mine You sent the dogs after my scent, that’s fine Yes, I have reasons for shame But I have not committed treason And sullied my good name As you can see I have done nothing to provoke legal action Are my answers to your satisfaction? [Jefferson] My God [Madison] Gentlemen, let’s go [Hamilton] So? [Jefferson and madison] The people won't know what we know [Hamilton] Burr! How do I know you won’t use this against me The next time we go toe to toe? [Burr] Alexander, rumors only grow And we both know what we know
