Oversimplified (Part 1)

Hamilton: THAT'S MY SON!

King George: TREASON! Ooh! It's me onscreen! About time!

Benny: Okay, taxing the colonists for tea, then sending 1000 troops to Boston and making the colonists pay for THEM?! Uncool!

Nina: Yeah!

Heather M.: Oh! The Boston Massacre! We learned about that in school!

Angelica: Ooh! The First Continental Congress!

Madison: Here I am!

Jefferson: And me!

(When Hamilton shows up)

Hamilton: WHOOO! HERE I AM, B*TCHES!

Vanessa:...that's one of those outbursts we internalize.

Carla: Wasn't Benedict Arnold a traitor?

Me: Yep.

(When Washington makes an unnecessary acceptance speech)

Heather D.: Geez, that's not really necessary, it's not like he's accepting an award.

Heather C.: Yeah! Adams is right! Cut the crap, G-Dubbs!

Hamilton: (Gasps, offended)

(When King George writes "I am going to kick your a*s")

Everyone except King George: (Laughs)

Sonny: Ha! He has crap handwriting?

Anne Boleyn: Imagine if it got misread as...oh...it did...

Katherine Howard: "Lick my..." ew!

Daniela: How gross!

Laurens: Yeah, King George, you REALLY need to work on your handwriting.

Hamilton: I cant' believe I'm saying this but Screen Jefferson is right! That's GROSS!

Jefferson: HA! YOU JUST ADMITTED THAT I'M RIGHT!

Hamilton: I can take it back!

Nina: Oof! Valley Forge was a rough time.

Mulligan: Yep, it was.

Jefferson: YES! A whole segment about me writing the Declaration!

Angelica: INCLUDE WOMEN IN THE SEQUEL!

Everyone except for Jefferson: WERK!

(Onscreen:...including "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness")

Me: We fought for these ideals, we shouldn't settle for less! These are wise words enterprising men quote 'em! Don't act surprised, ya guys, 'cause (points to Jefferson) HE WROTE 'EM!

Hamilton: Hmph!

Me: Cabinet Battle #1 is a great song. I'm not sorry.

(After the video ends)

Me: Okay! Time for part 2!

Benny: Do we really need to listen to a sponsorship ad?

Sonny: Yeah.

Me: You're right. Let's skip ahead.

(After I skip ahead)

Burr: Yep, Valley Forge. It was a pretty hard time for us.

Lafayette: I heard...

Hamilton: See! Since no one expected an attack in the winter, Washington planned an attack in the winter! He's a genius!

Eliza: Ah, the Hessians. I remember them. And the crossing of the Delaware!

Peggy: That was very eventful!

Lafayette: Yep! An alliance with France! That's where I come in!

King George: Yeah, William Howe did a crap job!

Anna of Cleves: Well, looks like von Steuben made a man out of them! Like Li Shang did to the Imperial Army in Mulan!

Anne Boleyn: (Laughing at Washington whipping a soldier for pooping where he was not supposed to) HAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! Ahhhh...

Burr: Very mature!

Catherine of Aragon: Yeah!

Mulligan: Ah, the Battle of Monmouth.

Me: (Mocking Charles Lee) I'M A GENERAL! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Jane Seymour: Yeah, anyone who shows THAT kind of reaction to a job where there is a LOT of responsibility I would think as not suited for the job.

Me: Yep

Laurens: Yeah, Charles Lee REALLY s*at the bed.

Lafayette: I had to take the lead because he was not suitable as a general!

Veronica: From what I heard, yeah.

Eliza: Incompetent-slash-borderline treason is right.

Katherine Howard: The slaves deserved better!

Laurens: Yeah! And Jefferson, why did you erase that bit from the Declaration?

Jefferson: Uh...

J.D.: YAS! Washington set Benedict Arnold in his PLACE!

Veronica: Unfortunately he got away with treason.

King George: Ha! I have a fan page on Facebook!

Burr: It's...fake.

Madison: Yeah it's just for that video.

Lafayette: Ooh! I see my profile!

Heather D.: Oh! The Battle of Yorktown. But I think I like the Hamilton song better.

Hamilton: We kicked some MAJOR British a*s!

Angelica: Language!

Burr:...oh! Are they moving on to Washington's presidency?

Me: Kind of.

Hamilton: He was a good president.

(When the video ends)

Sonny: That was pretty funny! Wait, did I say that about an educational video?

Veronica: Yeah, it was fun! It explained MUCH better than my teachers!

Hamilton: I just liked reliving those days!

Anne Boleyn: I wonder what other videos Oversimplified did.

Me: Well, you're in luck! The next video we'll watch next week is about you queens and Henry VIII! Stay tuned! Okay, that's all the time we have for today's episode! Feel free to vote, comment, and drop a request! Until next time!

Everyone: Bye!
