Leslie Odom Jr.
Meet Me Inside
[HAMILTON]
Lee, do you yield?
[BURR]
You shot him in the side!
Yes, he yields!
[LAURENS]
I’m satisfied
[BURR]
Yo, we gotta clear the field!
[HAMILTON]
Go! We won
[COMPANY]
Here comes the General!
[BURR]
This should be fun
[WASHINGTON]
What is the meaning of this? Mr. Burr, get a medic for the General
[BURR]
Yes, sir
[WASHINGTON]
Lee, you will never agree with me
But believe me, these young men don’t speak for me
Thank you for your service
[BURR]
Let’s ride!
[WASHINGTON]
Hamilton!
[HAMILTON]
Sir!
[WASHINGTON]
Meet me inside
[COMPANY]
Meet him inside! Meet him inside!
Meet him inside, meet him, meet him inside!
[WASHINGTON]
Son—
[HAMILTON]
Don’t call me son
[WASHINGTON]
This war is hard enough
Without infighting—
[HAMILTON]
Lee called you out. We called his bluff
[WASHINGTON]
You solve nothing, you aggravate our allies to the south
[HAMILTON]
You're absolutely right, John should have shot him in the mouth
That would’ve shut him up
[WASHINGTON]
Son—
[HAMILTON]
I’m notcha son—
[WASHINGTON]
Watch your tone
I am not a maiden in need of defending, I am grown
[HAMILTON (OVERLAPPING)]
Charles Lee, Thomas Conway
These men take your name and they rake it
Through the mud
[WASHINGTON]
My name’s been through a lot, I can take it
[HAMILTON]
Well, I don’t have your name. I don’t have your titles
I don’t have your land
But, if you—
[WASHINGTON]
No—
[HAMILTON]
If you gave me command of a battalion, a group of men to lead, I could fly above my station after the war
[WASHINGTON]
Or you could die and we need you alive
[HAMILTON]
I’m more than willing to die—
[WASHINGTON]
Your wife needs you alive, son, I need you alive—
[HAMILTON]
Call me son one more time—
[WASHINGTON]
Go home, Alexander
That’s an order from your commander
[HAMILTON]
Sir—
[WASHINGTON]
Go home
