[F#] Mr.
Vice President, Mr.
Madison, Senator Burr, what is this?
We have the check stubs from separate accounts.
Almost a thousand dollars paid in different amounts to a Mr.
James Reynolds way back in 1791.
Is that what you have you done?
You are uniquely situated by virtue of your position.
Though virtue is not a word I'd apply to this situation.
To seek financial gain to stray from a sacred mission.
And the evidence suggests you engaged in speculation.
An immigrant's embezzling our government funds.
I can almost see the headline, your career is done.
I hope you save some money for your daughter and son.
You're best one run back where you come [D#m] from.
You don't even [A#] know what you're asking me to confess.
[D#] Confess.
You have nothing I don't have to tell you [A#] anything at all.
Unless.
[D#m] Unless.
I can [D] prove that I never broke the law.
[F#] Do you promise not to tell [C] another soul what you [B] saw?
No one else was in the room [Bm] where it happened.
Is that a yes?
Um, [F#] yes.
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 that was my wife who you decided to.
[G#] What?
She courted me.
Escorted me to bed.
And when she had me in a corner.
That's when Reynolds extorted me for a solid fee.
I paid [G#] him quarterly.
I may have mortally wounded my prospects but my papers are orderly.
[A#] As you can see I kept a record of every check in my check history.
Check it again against your licensee consistency.
I never spent a cent that wasn't mine.
You sent the dogs into my scent.
That's fine.
[B] I have reason for shame.
But I have not committed treason and [F#] sullied my good name.
[B] As you can see I have done nothing to provoke legal action.
Are my answers to you satisfied?
[F#] My god.
Gentlemen, let's [F#m] go.
So?
[E] The people won't know what [F#] we know.
Burr.
How do I know you won't use this against me the next time we go toe to toe?
[F#m] Alexander, rumors only grow.
[F#] And we both know what we know.
