- Опубліковано 8 січ 2018
- Lin-Manuel Miranda turns a piece of reporting we broadcast in 2012 into a 14-minute Broadway musical, created by people who normally work on Broadway. You can find the original cast album of “21 Chump Street: The Musical” on, iTunes, Amazon, and Spotify.
Nearly 50 actors, singers, dancers, musicians, and comedians joined Ira Glass onstage at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's Opera House on June 7, 2014, to try some things they'd never tried before. The result? Journalism turned into opera, into plays, into a Broadway musical (by Lin-Manuel Miranda, starring Lindsay Mendez and Anthony Ramos). Comedy from Mike Birbiglia and Saturday Night Live’s Sasheer Zamata. Songs from Stephin Merritt of the Magnetic Fields. Dance from Monica Bill Barnes & Company. Video directed by Seth Lind and produced by Ben Cohen and Ben Katz.

naomi: don't sell drugs
also naomi: *forces justin to become a drug dealer*
IS THAT DAN HOWELL OMG-
To be fair, she never expect someone to be so comfortable with buying drugs just for the sake of love (especially someone who never sold drugs before). But I wish she got the message from him not wanting any money.
Ur profile pic fits so right with this comment
She's a terrible cop lmao

Naomi: You're making me feel guilty
*WELL YOU SHOULD BE*
HM I WONDER WHY
WHY WOULD YOU FEEL GUILTY FOR RUINING AN INNOCENT KID’S LIFE
Not to mention she didn't stop the drug problem she added to it and ruined some kids future
@@brocadeplayer9183Fr
she literally manipulated a naive child into being a drug dealer instead of finding a student who was actually putting other people into danger.. this will never not make me mad
Honestly
I was accused of theft because I sold pretzels to my friends, and because I was a low income individual, eventually I was accused of selling drugs because I had allergy pills and aleve in my backpack, because I suffered with chronic headaches and allergies because my classmate was constantly covered in cat hair. The joke is i was 18, never gave anyone any of my fucking dollar store 'drugs', and got threatened with arrest for selling snacks like puppy chow and ranch pretzels

Jajaj i didn’t realize it but i think what she ment is that dosent matter the presure,dont do it? Well i dont know
FRRR! She knows she was wrong for that
Classic case of corrupt cops doing entrapment, and the defendant is too scared to risk fighting the charge so they take a plea

Laughing and crying and fangirling over the Hamilton reference: *me*
Naomi: Take the money
Justin: I don't want your money.
Me who knows what's going to happen: *heart breaks*
Nautica Cenatus I got this just for you.. keep your money!
there’s nothing i won’t dooo for you
Honestly what happened was like, entrapment
I know if I was Naomi as soon as that happened I'm giving him back the weed erasing all those texts and starting over with someone not so sweet and innocent
@@beccaroberts333 - not sure I could agree with entrapment as a defense here (at least according the libretto as presented). Her question "do you smoke weed" was immediately followed by him saying "No, I don't. But if that's what you need, I can find some for you. I can be your supply". Entrapment would require her to first ask him if he could get her some weed, then using enticement (or threat) to pursue it. As clearly stated in the libretto, he was willing to "be anyone" to be with her. At that point, he changed as a person. In his desire, he betrayed himself.

@@Hisnameisqt5 yes, we did it boys! finally one of anthony’s characters lin cast him in has a happy ending!
Lin could write a musical about painting a wall and I’d be like “YESSS THE ARTISTRY 😫😭”
Duh, he makes everything awesome with music!
Because it would be a musical with an excellent soundtrack with songs about the place where the wall was, what was the intention of the owner of the wall,the problems the wall owner had to go through to make the necessary repairs, the story of the painter who was hired for the job, the change that the wall had with the new coat of paint and perhaps a wall with a new color, A history of the things that the wall has witnessed making references to the famous sayings of "If walls could speak" or "Walls have ears" ...then a sad story of time affecting the painting on the wall or the wall being vandalized with graffiti or for reasons of remodeling or deterioration, the wall is doomed to be demolished....With a final moral of how important are the little things we do at home to beautify it.
I would still go see it.

She saved lives by ruining justin's
@@Titanicfreak90 no she ruined lives by ruining justins
I don't care if she's an undercover cop. She played him and that's morally wrong...not talking about the actor but the real "Naomi" in this story 😒
This is one of the less horrible ones (and its horrible). There was a case of a kid with severe autism, never had a friend in his life, till an undercover cop came up and said he'd be his friend if he obtained drugs.Kid went down for it. There are cases of undercover cops getting their target pregnant. BTW obtaining sex under false pretenses is rape, unless your a cop (And the law has special exemptions. But the victims still suffer). A lot of evil happens under the name of "law enforcement". The cops that do this are not good people
In May, the police arrested 31 students from several schools. Justin was one of them.

Yeah! I thought I was the only one who thought that was weird.
This is the only time I wish I could favorite a comment
so instead of finding an actual drug dealer , or even the cousin who gave the weed to justin , she made him into one and then manipulated him to take the money so he would be technically selling it .... and she still thinks she did her job right ? this broke my heart ;(
someone said a theory is she keeps saying that to reassure herself and not make herself think she ruined lives, which she indeed did :/
and that probably turned him to a drug dealer ince he was convicted so he might as well
The worst part is, she did do her job right. The American "justice" system is inherently corrupt
@@Momsaiditsmyturnwiththegender isn’t entrapment illegal though?
@@milliesfavoriteinterests he could probably make that point in a parole hearing tbh
She didn't find a drug dealer she made one
too true
Yup
It has ALWAYS burned my biscuits on both sides! And she felt so righteous about it!
Sameee
I dunno about IRL but in the song Justin says, "I can be your supply" after Naomi only asks is if he smokes. Here he assumes that she's asking for some and for some reason decides to go find some for her
Still I think it's definitely mostly Naomi's fault. The moment after she asks do you smoke and he says "No I don't..." should've raised at least a little doubt.
Biggest doubt should've been when he wouldn't take her money
And can we add doubts that shouldv'e been planted before like Justin's genuine persona? If he was trying to deal drugs he would've asked before or hinted that he sells them.
They both might be a little foolish but you would at least expect a _'professional'_ investigator to have a little more awareness
Here we have footage of young Phillip going through puberty.

hes 18 here so this was before he got shot by eacker

Yeah, I guess, but she did her job right

She kissed him to make him take it
I don't think they kiss in real life, though... I think she just keeps telling him she "won't feel right" taking it as a gift until he finally takes it and then BOOM jail.... Grrrrrr

*sweats in 1000s of pages of writings*
this actually came out like 6 years ago before Hamilton blew up
I’ve always been haunted by Naomi’s line “these kids need to learn there are consequences in life” like they are KIDS that’s the point of adolescence and school, to be able to make mistakes and be dealt with like the still developing mind you are. The school to prison pipeline is horrific and creates criminals out of children who made questionable decisions and need to be taught not punished. Very scary, especially for over policed minorities.

I am speechless...
Omg why didn’t they just go for the students that actually like smelled of pot and knew where to get it Jesus Christ
God, it's terrible
No, she was just doing her job. If Justin were to say no, he would not be in prison. She was clearly just preventing drugs from being sold. Drugs are still drugs, consequences are consequences.
@@nofoo They don't target specific students, they just have random checks, making sure people are not consuming or selling drugs. Naomi took the chance to stop drug worthy students. What I mean by that is they're willing to do or sell drugs for any purpose.
s p i c y *specific purpose
Naiomi: " you would not believe how easy it is to get drugs and pills". Justin " I called a cousin who called a cousin who called a friend who called a couple dozen cousin's cause it doesn't end".

*ORIGINAL INTERVIEW*
Here is the interview this musical is based on. Lots of direct quotes in the play. Credit to This American Life.
Last year, at three high schools in Palm Beach County, Florida, a bunch of young police officers were sent undercover to pose as students. These were recent graduates of the police cadet program. And they blended right in. They went to classes. They ate in the cafeteria. The hung out on the basketball court during recess. They had fake Facebook accounts, of course. They even took the state's standardized test, the FCAT. Police officers were there undercover because parents and principals had complained about drugs being sold at the schools. Only the principals at the schools knew of their presence. No teachers knew it, no parents knew it.
Now, maybe it is hard to imagine a love story coming out of this situation, but one did. A love story where somebody went out of his way and took action at a key moment for love. Robbie Brown tells what happened.
Robbie Brown
The plan was called Operation D Minus. And one of the schools included in the plan was Park Vista Community High School, where a kid named Justin Laboy, an 18-year-old honor roll student, was in the last semester of his senior year.
And Justin could hardly believe his luck when a very pretty new girl-- everyone had noticed her-- showed up in not just one, but two of his classes.
Justin
The name that she used was Naomi. I think it was Naomi Rodriguez. And she sat in front of me, but then I sat next to her. So I started talking to her. Oh, hey, my name is Justin, you know. Oh, I'm Naomi. I'm from New York, this and that. Oh, really? Me too. And I had a hat that said New York on it too, because I was trying to show her that I wasn't lying or faking it.
She said she was from Queens. I'm from the Bronx. And she was Puerto Rican and Dominican. And that's what caught me even more. I was like, oh, man. OK. And I was Puerto Rican. And I was talking to her a little Spanish. She talked to me in a little Spanish.
And then I just got really close to her. I got attached real quick. I was like, wow, look at this.
Robbie Brown
What did she look like?
Justin
She was about 5' 4", black straight hair, light-skinned. She was mature body-wise, so that caught a lot of people's attention. But the things that she did that I thought made her a real student was that she would sleep in class. She wouldn't do her homework. I would have to wake her up all the time, be like, hey, listen, wake up. You're going to get in trouble. Hey, oh, you didn't do your homework? OK, I'll let you copy my homework.
Because, I mean, I take my classes seriously. But with her, it was different. I was just like, oh, man, you know? Wow, you know, she's cute. I could talk to her. I'd get in trouble once in a while. It would be like, Justin, stop talking. OK.
Robbie Brown
Justin's a good-looking guy, popular and well-liked. He'd had girlfriends before but nothing that lasted. Nothing that seemed worth holding on to. But Naomi seemed different.
She was a good listener. She didn't seem to gossip or play games. She seemed very adult.
Justin
It's the maturity level that I really cared for. I told her a lot of my feelings. I told her how I felt for her. I mean, I'm not the type of person to open up to you unless we have a really good relationship. And I was just opened up so much. I told her about my whole life story, about my parents. I told her problems I had.
Robbie Brown
What was it about her that made you trust her? That made you feel like you could open up to her?
Justin
She had told me that she came up here with her mother. That they was having problems in New York, so they came over here to Florida to settle down, to have a better life. And little stuff like that, telling people, I believed that, oh, wow. OK, since you're telling me stuff like this, then I can tell you about my life.
Yeah, I'm having hard troubles with this person right here. Or I'm having trouble with my parents. Little stuff like that makes people bond together.
Robbie Brown
Justin believed he was seeing the signs that Naomi was starting to like him. Like him like him.
They walked together in the halls. They would text during class. He says she even let him kiss her on the cheek. And he serenaded her in front of their entire class.
Justin
I'd be like, oh, I'm going to sing you a song. She'd be like, oh, OK. And then I'd just start singing. And then I'll get all blushed up. And be like, oh, man, what am I doing? OK, let me continue. I'll start rapping to her, and then I started singing. And I mean, I even danced too. So I danced for her and I--
Robbie Brown
You really liked this girl.
Justin
Man, it tore me apart. I was like, oh my god.
Robbie Brown
So you felt like all the signs were good?
Justin
Oh, of course. I felt all the signs were good, because I never got a non-sign. So therefore, I was just like, OK, everything's good. I know I'm taking it slow. I know I'm taking it good. Usually, it doesn't take me that long to get a girlfriend when I start talking to them. So when it took me-- I found it kind of odd. I was like, wow, I'm such a great dude. And we're hanging out. What's the next step? I don't care about sex and everything. I just want to know if you're going to be mine.
Robbie Brown
So she was playing kind of hard to get?
Justin
Yes. I mean, me, I love that. So it attracted me even more. I love girls that guys can't have. So I'm like, this is awesome.
Robbie Brown
And in hindsight, she was probably playing hard to get for a different reason.
Justin
Yes, for a different reason.
Robbie Brown
All of this built up, inevitably, to Justin asking Naomi to prom. She's a senior, I'm a senior. Our last year, I don't know where we're going to be after this. So let me just step up, and be a man, and do what I got to do.
So I went up to her in class. And I was like, listen, I know you don't know anybody in this school that much. And I don't want to go to anybody in this school. And I feel really attracted to you. Would you like to come with me to prom? Oh, that sounds nice. OK. Excuse me, let me think about it.
I was blushing red. I was like, oh my god, what if she says no? What if she says yes? And after she gave me the OK, yeah, around the more of a yes side, I was OK. I was good. Good.
Naomi
You know, prom was coming up. And I guess he needed a date.
Robbie Brown
I interviewed the undercover officer who played Naomi. She's a 25-year-old new recruit with the Palm Beach School's police force. She wouldn't give me her real name, and only agreed to a phone interview if her supervising sergeant could listen in. She wouldn't talk to me about any specific cases, or kids at the school, including Justin. But she did confirm that she was asked to prom. She doesn't remember it quite the way Justin does though. Mainly, she says she didn't say yes.
Naomi
I told him I wasn't going just because, since this is not where I spent the last three years of high school, I didn't really want to go to the prom. And I had to pay for the ticket and everything else. I was like, no, it's too much money for me. And he bought it.
Robbie Brown
Justin and Naomi didn't end up going to prom, of course. Partly because of what happened next.
One day at the beginning of April, after Naomi had been at school for about three months, she and Justin had a conversation about drugs.
Justin
She asked me if I smoked. And I told her, no, I do not smoke. But if you need anything, I'll be more than happy to help you out. So like I said, I'm not a drug dealer. It's hard for me to get drugs at all. So it's not like she told me this day, and then I got it for her the very next day. It took me a while, you know?
She would text me, and I would text her. She'd be like, do you have it yet? No, I don't have it at the moment right now. And she would be at school, hey, do you have that yet? No, I don't have it right now. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm really trying. My heart is to get it, and I can't get it. Because I liked the girl.
Robbie Brown
What are you thinking as you're trying to get this pot to sell to her?
CONTINUED IN COMMENTS
PART 2 -
Justin
I'm thinking, what the heck am I doing? Like I had never done this in the school before. So I'm really scared and skeptical about it, too, at the same point. And I'm like, oh, man. OK. So I'm asking my home boy. And my friend is like, no-- I don't know. Because I don't hang out with guys like that.
Robbie Brown
Maybe Justin didn't know guys like that, and maybe he did. The police say he told Naomi he smoked pot. Justin says he was just trying to seem cool to impress her. But what's certain is he did find somebody who would sell to him, a person his cousin knew, he says.
So a couple days after they first talked about it, Justin brought a rolled up baggie of marijuana to school for Naomi.
Justin
And I was petrified. I was like, oh my god. I'm actually going to do this.
So we were in class. And I sat right next to her. And she was like, hey, do you have that? And I was like, you know what? Yeah, I do. And I was like, OK, we're going to wait a few. Because I'm not going to be like, oh, hey, give it to her in her hand, slide it. But she was like, OK, put it in my purse. OK. She put her purse on top of my desk. And then I slid it right in there.
She goes, OK, now take the money. I was like, no, I don't need the money. It's OK. Just have it. You can take it.
She goes, no, please take the money. You make me feel bad. So 10 minutes passed. And then we're still arguing about it. I'm like, please. No, I don't want the money. And she goes, no, just take the money. Take the money. Please, take the money. It will make me feel better. I'm just like, OK, you know what? Just so you could just shut up, I'll take the money. Don't worry. You're making me feel bad, now that I'm taking the money from you.
Robbie Brown
How much money?
Justin
$25.
Robbie Brown
And this was at school?
Justin
Yes.
Robbie Brown
Justin would later find out it's a felony in Florida to sell marijuana. And the penalty is even harsher for selling it on school property. In other words, Justin had made an irreversibly bad decision. The worst decision of his life, he says. And since he was over 18, he was legally an adult when he made it.
Finally, in May, the police did a big sweep. They arrested 31 people at several schools, almost all of them students who had sold small amounts of marijuana. Justin was one of them.
Justin
And they said that I had sold to the undercover cop. And I'm weirded out. I'm like, whoa. Who did I ever sell to? And then it just popped into my head that the only person that I ever did give anything to was this female. And I was shocked. My emotions were running. I was just like, oh my god. This is so mean. This is so messed up. How can she do this?
I mean, if it was a guy doing this, if a guy ever tried to come up to me like this, I would have put my hand in his face straight up, and said, no, get out of my face. Please, get out of my face. I don't associate with that. But it's just a female. It's a different feeling that you get for a female than you would when you have your home boy or a guy come up to you and ask you a question like that. Oh, hey, do you smoke? No, no, I don't. Get out of here. It was a different feeling that when you get from a girl you like. You're not going to turn down the person that you want to be with.
Robbie Brown
When I talked to the officer who plays Naomi, she said she had no regrets about her undercover work. She's a cop. And she sees it the way a cop does.
Naomi
These kids need to wake up. They need to realize they can't be doing this.
Robbie Brown
And using undercover officers has gotten results. The police in Palm Beach County tried the same tactics again at another group of schools last semester. So far, they've arrested more than 80 people. All have pled guilty to charges ranging from selling cocaine and pills to bringing weapons on school property.
Justin took a plea deal, three years probation in exchange for pleading guilty to the felony charge. His lawyer told him that if he went to trial, it would be his word against Naomi's. And they disagreed about the drug deal.
He says she kept asking him to sell her marijuana. She says he brought it up first. He says she insisted he take money for it. She says he just took the money without prompting. Either way, the police had Justin's text messages telling Naomi he would get marijuana for her. So Justin's lawyer advised him, just take the plea.
But before the deal came through, he spent more than a week in jail going over and over in his mind what had happened. And still thinking, in spite of himself, about Naomi.
Justin
I would have a good time when I would be with her. And I would be with her all the time. And that's why, when all this collapsed and caved in, I felt so-- it just hurt.
Robbie Brown
Have you had any contact with Naomi--
Justin
No, not--
Robbie Brown
--since you were arrested?
Justin
Not at all.
Robbie Brown
Have you tried to send her any messages?
Justin
No. I don't have any contact with her whatsoever. If I would, I would love to have a conversation with her. No disrespect or anything.
Robbie Brown
What would you tell her?
Justin
I would tell her, what the heck did she do?
Robbie Brown
Justin had planned to go into the Air Force after high school. He said he wanted to make something out of his life. And now, with a felony conviction, the Armed Forces, any part of it, was off the table. Justin is applying to community college.
He says now the whole thing seems kind of unbelievable. He was an honor roll student, a first time offender with no criminal record. And of all the high schools in all the towns in all the world, she walked into his.
@@kayleejohnson3325 Thanks in bunches for the transcript. If anything, it gives insight into how LMM picked up on certain phrases in the original report to turn them into lyrics. Gotta try it myself sometime ... like when real Justin says "I was blushing red. I was like, oh my god, what if she says no? What if she says yes?" could be something like ""She ran me hot blushin' red / Oh my god, I'd be dead / If she says no, otherwise / I dunno, yes? Me surprised" That'd be gold in Lin-Manuel's hands.
@@kayleejohnson3325 wow I was looking into this story and this is all I need
Thanks!

Naomi:
“....Now I'm the villain in your history
I was too young and blind to see....”
Lol
At least Burr learned his lesson, Naomi fully believed that what she did was right and continues to pose as a undercover cop and “bust” students.
“I told the cousin who told the cousin who told who friend, who told his cousins and cousins cuz it never end”

8:36 is the exact same sound effect used in Hamilton in the dueling theme
OH MY GOODNESS YOU ABSOLUTE GENIUS
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST COMMENTS IVE EVER SEEN
ONE TWO THREE FOUR FIVE SIX SEVEN EIGHT NINE-
IMR
Anthony’s last “What the heck did you do” breaks my heart every time.
queen slushie ikr :(
queen slushy IKR;-;
Its freaking heart breaking!!! No matter how many times i hear it! Crying over here!
queen slushy ikr 😭
he literally says it like 100 times are you okay
Lauren’s: Dead
Phillip: Dead
Justin: In jail
Does Lin hate Anthony?
Lin didn't write this story.
I think what they are saying is who they picked for the role. But usually they decide who they think they would be best for, so apparently every role he plays he wants to be heartbroken, dead, or in jail. Idk about you but I rather not die repeatedly
lin is a fucking genius i love him djdj he probably keeps picking anthony for the saddest parts because he knows how lovable he is
andyiscrying yesssss
@@dreamofyouandi yes he did
can we take a moment to appreciate anthony's vocals tho?
This will forever upset me. He had such a future ahead of him. She knew he was a good kid. It makes me sad.
and it’s a true story which makes it even sadder
But oh the vocals.. oh the lyrics... The pure genius...
I don’t have a cousin that can hook me with with something. And then I realized.
*I am that cousin*
Chamomile Tea freakin mood
Mood.
Chamomile Tea is your dealer a student?!? sorry
me too 😂
Fbi: we'd like to arrest you
Justin: I need new clothes. Oh I know.....
20 minutes later
Evan hansen: hey someone took my pants and shirt
THATS WHAT I THOUGHT lol
Lol
HAHAHAHHAAH
But technically it would be the opposite way around because Dear Evan Hansen came out after this lol
TRUE
"probably best known for starring in in the heights" i know this was before Hamilton but hearing that made me chuckle
15:48 TOMORROW THERE'LL BE MORE OF US
John Laurens was cascaded in a similar blue light during Laurens' Interlude 😭😭
A cop is supposed to find the problem then solve it. She literally made the problem just to solve it. It really isn't fair.
AND PEGGY hi sis!
Eliza Schuyler Hamilton oof why tho YOUR SON IS HERE
Thatgemini overthere Hate club what’s wrong with saying hi to my sister?
AND PEGGY Justin was supposed to get it from a kid in school and she would get them arrested. instead he didn't have anyone to blame except himself
I know why people hate her but it's kinda his fault too he should have just said no when she asked if he smoked but he continued saying i can find some for you i can be your guy implying that he knew how too and she has to arrest him for buying it, it is against the law and iam not trying to say that she isn't in the wrong either but yeah
So we're not going to talk about how Naomi made his prison sentence even worse?!
Lin said that it was even worse if sold on school property, and earlier in the musical Justin offers to give her it as soon as he got it, and she just replied 'see you at school'
oh damn you're right
jesus, naomi
and she made him take the money. if he didn't take it, it wouldnt technically be "selling"
purple clikkie distributing drugs is a crime
I hope someone exposes the real Naomi 😱
Also
ua-cam.com/video/7EYoA2_jvLc/v-deo.html I did a hamilton Mashup if anyone interested
I realized exactly what story this was based on about 1 minute in and, while I'm sure this is a brilliant short musical, I can't watch this because hearing that story fills me with nothing but white hot rage
this is called: 18 minutes of why i love both LMM and Anthony
Can I just point out that this wouldn't be complete without the 3 boys in the background
Sowjanya Tsaliki yes
What’s with all this fussin
🤣😭
I know right
I love those dudes
they were amazing
*asked kid to get drugs*
Justin: I got it

a short summary of 21 chump st...
there needs to be a musical called “anthony ramos get sabotaged everytime he has a roll in a musical”
STOP MAKING ME CRY LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA AND ANTHONY RAMOS.
I have spent 75% of my life crying because of Anthony Ramos
I watched his proposal and started bawling.

I'm just sitting here restarting that " What the heck did you do" part over and over. It hurts everytime
You know the actors are good when you're so focused on them you don't even notice the orchestra behind them
Naomi: sell me drugz
Justin: LOOOORDD- SHow me how to say NO to this-
Hamilton references. Hamilton references everywhere.
@Justeundonut- Moi. You can’t get rid of them *ITS ANTHONY RAMOS*
🎵I don't know how to Say No to This but...
My name is Justin, I am a poet
I'm so in love, there's no other way to show it,
Got it for twenty-five ducats,
I'm sweatin' buckets,
He slid a bag in my
Hand with these lil green nuggets
She smiles and slides me the last of her money
And I'm like...
"I don't want your money...
I got this just for you! Keep your money."
But she says, "you came
Through for me
I feel, guilty, Justin, please,
Take this money.
Take this money."
Oh, Lord, show me how to say no to this
I don't know how to say no to this
But the situation's helpless
And her body's screamin' "Hell, yes"
If this is what I gotta do
To be with you,
If this is what I gotta do
To be with you,
If this is who I gotta be
For you to be with me,
I'll take your money
I'll take your money🎶

I almost died when they started singing "Naomi". I love Lin so much and this is now my favourite thing! I'm only 2 minutes in to it as well.
I love that Anthony Ramos is in like all of Lin's projects
Nobody
Lin casting Anthony: Ok, so you’ll play the character everyone loves, then we’ll make them sad by giving you a sad ending
I love Lin, but he’s so cruel to us when it comes to Anthony’s characters
BUT DID LAURENS REALLY HAVE TO DIE THOUGH?? AND PHILLIP??????

it went from “what the heck i gotta do” to “ what the heck did i just do”
Say No to This, but it’s Justin saying no, then eventually yes, to getting Naomi the marijuana
say no to this but maria is named niomi and evil
Considering that Anthony always plays the precious beans, you’d think he’d have a happy ending by now
Damn this made me sad
He really be unlucky doe
Poor Anthony
Ya he should, I think he’ll have a happy ending in ‘’In the heights the movie’’ this month

There is so much more inside me now😊
She didn’t find a drug dealer, she created one
Phillip: dies
John: dead
Justin: prison/jail
Lin do hate Anthony??
Pastel Coøkie Kisses his fiancé during “Say no to this”, ITH movie his abuela/pretty much only family (besides his cousin) dies if you want to count that🤷♀️
I was gonna say that Anthony is basically his son but if that’s true it’s child abuse.
Yea i think Lin has a thing against Anthony...
Alma Yahalom I doubt it.. but in a humorous matter sure lmao
April0261 yea I meant humorously if Lin really hated Anthony he probably wouldn’t cast him in his musicals
"Idk why you asking me?" Maybe cuz ur wearing a weed shirt?
Trash Channel possibly my fave moment in the whole thing lol
That, and the harmonies in The Money 🥰
Ha I'm the 420 like
The audience giggled at the STRANGEST time, as she walked away from Justin after forcing the money in his hand… there were a couple stifled giggles like… bruh this is such a somber moment
The epilogue too, I was like still so emotionally shook and the audience was laughing like y’all don’t feel the WEIGHT… this child was charged with a FELONY and he’s reflecting on being entrapped by his high school crush… idk lmaooo
Lin-Manuel Miranda artistry in writing is always excellent and impressive. I could never stop watching and supporting all of his works. Anthony Ramos is a very talented man ever since and I'm happy now that he is recognized. This short musical may depicts a real life situation where someone innocent are being trapped and abused by a manipulative person that will resulted a hard changes in flow of his/her life.
I like how you can hear Lin smiling when he talks

@@philiphamilton1645 hi. How's heaven
Essential Elements of a Lin Manuel Miranda musical:
1) Epic lyrics
2) LMM is in it
3) Reference to a Caribbean island (or two)
4) Something terrible happens to Anthony Ramos 😂
Poor Anthony had to die twice in the same musical 😂
Kaitlyn Vaillancourt and got manipulated into selling drugs, teased by his characters crush (sort of..), and getting arrested in another.
