Lin-Manuel Miranda, Genius, Reinvents the Drunk Voice-mail With Rhymes

Lin-Manuel Miranda may throw away his sobriety, but he’ll never lose his love of rhymes. In a deleted scene from his episode of Drunk History, Lin-Manuel Miranda leaves a voice-mail message for Hamilton musical director Alex Lacamoire. “Lock up your horses and daughters,†he begins. “I’m getting fucked up on the couch with [Drunk History creator] Derek Waters.†Then he gets into a frankly incomprehensible riff on the Super Bowl, Puerto Rico, and pineapples, which, if we understand the world of Hamilton correctly, means he just challenged Lacamoire to a duel.
