Guns And Ships

[BURR]

How does a ragtag volunteer army in need of a shower, somehow defeat a global superpower? How do we emerge victorious for the quagmire, leave the battlefield waving Betsy Ross' flag higher? Yo, turns out we have a secret weapon. An immigrant you know and love who's unafraid to step in. He's constantly confusing, confounding the British henchmen. Everyone give it up for America's favourite fighting Frenchman!

Lafayette!

[LAFAYETTE]

I'm taking this horse by the reins, making redcoats redder with bloodstains!

[COMPANY]

Lafayette!

[LAFAYETTE]

And I'm never gonna stop until I make 'em drop, burn 'em up and scatter the remains I'm--

[COMPANY]

Lafayette!

[LAFAYETTE]

Watch me engaging 'em, escaping 'em, enraging 'em, ow!

[COMPANY]

Lafayette!

[LAFAYETTE]

I go to France for more funds.

[COMPANY]

Lafayette!

[LAFAYETTE]

I come back with more guns. And ships. And so the balance shifts.

[WASHINGTON]

We rendezvous with Rochambeau, consolidate their gifts.

[LAFAYETTE]

We can end this war in Yorktown, cut them off at sea, but, for this to succeed, there's someone else we need...

[WASHINGTON]

I know.

[COMPANY]

Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE]

Sir, he knows what to do in the trench. Ingenuitive and fluent in French, I mean...

[COMPANY]

Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE]

Sir, you're gonna have to use him eventually. What's he gonna do on the bench, I mean?

[COMPANY]

Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE]

No one has more resilience, or matches my practical tactical brilliance!

[COMPANY]

Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE]

You wanna fight for your land back?

[COMPANY]

Hamilton!

[WASHINGTON]

I need my right-hand man back.

[LAFAYETTE[

Ah, uh.

Get your right-hand man back!

[COMPANY]

Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE]

You know you gotta get ya...

[LAFAYETTE/WASHINGTON]

Right-hand man back!

[COMPANY]

Hamilton!

[LAFAYETTE]

I mean, you gotta put some thought into the letter, but the sooner the better. To get your right-hand man back!

[WASHINGTON]

Alexander Hamilton, troops are waiting in the fields for you. If you join us right now, together we can turn the... tii-iide. Oh, Alexander Hamilton. I have soldiers that will yield for you. If we manage to get this right, they'll surrender by early light. The world will never be the same... Alexander...
