Meet the latest graduate
Of king's college!
I prob'ly shouldn't brag
But, dag, I amaze and astonish!
The scholars say I got
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
That someday
I would

Blow us all away

Ladies, I'm lookin for
A mr. george eacker
Made a speech last week
Our fourth 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

I saw him just up broadway a couple of blocks
He was goin' to see a play

Well, I'll go visit his box

God, you're a fox

And y'all look pretty good in ya' frocks
How 'bout when I get back
We all strip down to our socks?

Ok!

Blow us all away!

George!

Shh

George!

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

Ya' shoulda watched your mouth before you
Talked about my father though!

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

OOh!

It's like that?

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

See you on the dueling ground
That is, unless you wanna step outside
And go now

I know where to find you, piss off
I'm watchin' this show now

Pops, if you had only heard the shit
He said about you
I doubt you would have let it slide
And I was not about to

Slow down

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

Did your friends attempt to negotiate a peace?

He refused to apologize
We had to let the peace talks cease

Where is this happening?

Across the river, in jersey

Everything is legal in new jersey

Alright. so this is 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

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

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

Father

Promise me. you don't want this
Young man's blood on your conscience

Okay, I promise

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

My name is philip
I am a poet
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?

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

Confer with your men
The duel will commence after we count to ten

Count to ten!

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

One two three four

Five six seven
