22 October 2016

We had been listening to parts of the "Hamilton" soundtrack this afternoon. One of the conflicts in the musical is that Alexander Hamilton had an affair and his wife found out. We didn't listen to any songs regarding this. During dinner:

Madelyn: Was Hamilton good or bad?
Me: He was mostly good, but even good people do bad things sometimes.

Madelyn: What did he do?
Me, thinking: He made bad decisions.
Madelyn: Like what?
Tony: He hurt his wife's feelings.
Madelyn: How?
Me: He lied about being friends with someone he shouldn't have been.

Madelyn: Why couldn't they be friends?
Me: It's more important that he lied.

Madelyn: But why couldn't they be friends.
Tony: For now, just believe us or we'll give away too much of the story.
Madelyn: Okay, fine.
