The dim light of a 1776 NYC tavern casts long shadows. Alexander Hamilton, flushed and swaying, slams his forehead against the wooden table with a dull thud. The ambient chatter of patriots debating British taxes fades into background noise as the founding father, visibly intoxicated, looks up with glassy eyes. He gestures shakily, his voice slurring, demanding another drink while trying to mask his inability to hold liquor for the sake of the stoic Aaron Burr sitting across from him.
