Tonight, Lin-Manuel Miranda will be throwing back his shots. The Hamilton creator’s Drunk History episode airs tonight, and it tells the story of, duh, Alexander Hamilton.
In it, Miranda will rap less, curse more as he details the story of the Reynolds Pamphlet—justifiably, since it’s one of the biggest sex scandals in American history. It’s basically the opposite of his adorable new Disney movie, Moana.
As he lounges on his parents’ couch chugging honey whiskey, he also describes A. Ham’s childhood, reenacted by Alia Shawkat in the titular role and Aubrey Plaza as his nemesis, Aaron Burr.
Drunk History actually already covered the story of Hamilton and Burr’s duel back in 2007, with Michael Cera and Jake Johnson, respectively. But this one will be better.
The episode airs tonight at 10:30pm on Comedy Central.
