Lin-Manuel Miranda - Epilogue Lyrics
[Narrator:]
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. And since he was over 18, he was legally an adult when he made it
[Naomi:]
Seriously, these kids need to learn there are consequences in life. I am doing my job. I am doing it right. I am making life safer one school at a time
[Narrator:]
In May, the police arrested 31 students at several schools. Justin was one of them
[Cop:]
Freeze! You have the right to remain silent
[Students:]
Everybody who sold drugs to undercover cops is busted
Everybody who sold drugs to undercover cops is busted
Everybody who sold drugs to undercover cops is busted
[Narrator:]
He spent a week in jail wondering what would happen next
[Students:]
It's your word against hers. The cops have every text. The cops have every text. The cops have every text. "Don't worry, girl. I got the stuff, I got you."
[Narrator:]
He knew he'd lose in court. He had to take a plea
[Justin:]
Three years' probation. I plead guilty to the felony
[Students:]
What? A felony? A nickel bag's a felony? What? Justin, say goodbye to college, they got you
[Naomi:]
These kids need to wake up. I don't want to go too much into it, but drugs hit really close to home for me. I saw the effects growing up of cocaine, and marijuana, and ecstasy
[Narrator:]
With family members?
[Naomi:]
Yes. I've seen what it can do to a family. That's all I want to say about it
[Narrator:]
Do you wish someone like you had done this type of work?
[Naomi:]
Yes. And I hope someone like me keeps doing it. Still, there are kids you remember, the ones that you'll think about after you're gone
[Narrator:]
During the week he spent in jail, Justin couldn't help but think about Naomi
[Justin:]
She was a light-skinneded Puerto Rican-Dominican, long hair, mature in the body like whoa. That's not the only reason I liked her, though. Yo, if it had been a guy that came up to me asking me for drugs, I would've been like, "No, get out of my face." I don't hang out with people like that. It's cause it was her
[Narrator:]
Have you talked to her since all of this happened?
[Justin:]
No. I would love to. I would love to have that conversation
[Narrator:]
What do you think you would say?
[Justin:]
I would say, what the heck did you do? What the heck did you do? Naomi? What the heck did you do?

Lin-Manuel Miranda Epilogue Comments
He didn't even take the money- rip
It fucking sucks how many people get over the top sentences and suffer horrific and overblown consequences because of a little marijuana. Its bullshit.
She kinda caused it tho. She is the reason why he was in jail, lost his chance to a good college. He said he dont do drugs. But still asked him anyway. But he was in love and said he would help her. If she care she could have said no its ok. But she asked and got him trouble.
ok ok ok here's to not hating naomi
She wants to get him in trouble but only because she saw what a great and kind guy he was. She knew it was wrong to like him for obvious reasons so she got him in trouble as a reason not to like him. when she says, "these kids need to learn there are consequences." Consequences for falling in love.
Anthony is going to play Usnavi in the In The Heights movie! He's going to have a happy ending for once! Plus, it's another Lin musical
Nooo! my boy doesn't deserve that! 😭
Is it just me or does this seem like entrapment?
WHAT THE **** THAT WAS BRUTAL.
I'M CRYING
Man Anthony just don’t get no breaks can he??
Naomi did him dirty 😔🤚
She was supposed to catch drug dealers, not make them. This honestly makes me so angry.
DIDNT THE BITCH MAKE HIM GET DRUGS FOR HER!?!? SO SHE SET HIM UP CAUSE HE WAS HOPLESSLY IN LOVE !!
Naomi: these chillun needs to learn that there are consequences
Me: when someone MANIPULATES YOU
Is it just me or did Anthony singing at the end clinically kill anyone else?
i cant help but feel like Justin was exploited into this position. he didn’t want to sell drugs, he only did it because he liked someone. and they put him in that situation. seems a bit exploitative
Weed isn't even BAD
Also Naomi is a bitch i hope she gets fired
Justen probably would've had a plea for entrapment but he took the plea instead
WHY CAN'T ANTHONY'S CHARACTERS BE HAPPY
Honestly, the saddest part is not hearing the three dudes repeat the "like, woah" part that Justin sings towards the end.
I can’t stop crying but I’m dancing at the same time...
Every time I hear Naomis voice, I think about how she has no idea what she has done and had done.
That makes me friking crie😥😔
👏HE👏DID👏IT👏CAUSE👏HE👏EFFING👏LIKED👏HER👏HE👏WASNT👏A👏DRUG👏DEaLER👏BEFORE👏
I hate Naomi. She didn’t even do her job. The drugs weren’t from a kid on campus. Which makes the true story even worse.
Dang Anthony’s character never has a good ending
Laurens: Got Shot in a war that was *over*
Philip: Got shot because George E. Can’t count.
Justin: Had a crush and ended up in jail
The funny part about this is that if he had given it to her outside of school he woulda been fine.
He didn't even sell it technically
His voice is so gorgeous💚
BUT FUCK NAOMI
My Name Is Ph-
Whoops, wrong musical, sorry
Naomi is scum
She was just trying to do her job. She didn't have to do that to Justin but she just thought she was doing the right thing.
Al the trash bag
She
Is
Pure
Scum
Nooooooooooo LET ANTHONY HAVE A HAPPY ENDING...
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
But still, to prospective colleges, him being on trial for drug charges wouldn’t have looked good. So whether he accepted the plea or not, his chances of going to college were effectively gone
Hanebel Asaah he still went to college though
Actually it was thirty because he shouldn't have got arrested! She tricked him so it wasn't fair. And She needs to learn that what she did was wrong.
Naw she was testing him
Cries for an hour
Mom: What is wrong
Me: EVERY NAOMY IN THE WORKD DOES NOT DESERVE MY LOVE
FRICK THE LAW
*FREE JUSTIN HE DID NOTHING WRONG!*
WHO’S WITH ME >:D
YES SQYIDIPOP
but he took the monEy
He DID do something wrong...even if it was for love. I still feel bad:(
MMMMEEEEEEEE IM WITH YOU!!!!!!!!!!
Ok well screw you too Naomi.
M O O D
Naomi sucks
Never gonna be president now...
Never going to college now
My depression is fueling
DAMMIT NAOMI T◇T but she also provides a good lesson, but sort of forced it which makes it harder to like her character.
Goddamnit I'm not crying you are
anthony's characters are always caught slipping.
Fun fact: You're brain doesn't completely develop until you're about 25. And the last thing to develop is realising the consequences for your actions
Press F to pay respects to Justin
this musical is so short :(
This makes me angry at cops.
Okay here’s the thing, he wouldn’t have done it if it was anyone else. SHE TRICKED him into getting it. To be fair though he shouldn’t have done it anyways.
Yeah but that just means that any attractive girl could've manipulated him.
Ohh now thats why he sounds like philip from hamilton its his actor
The ENDiNg WhAt ThE HECK DiD yOu dO

*aLeXaNdEr HaMiLtOn*
It's really cool how the "everybody who sold drugs to undercover cops is busted" sound exactly like "everybody's got a cousin who can hook them up with something" in cousin, just that this one is harsher.
Nice profile (:
Wait...is Naomi Zoe Murphy?!?
No that would be Laura Dreyfus. This is Lindsay Mendez, Carousel and Wicked, and Actor's Therapy
mila.smiles What I had meant by that was a theory. I know it's not Laura Dreyfus(I am obsessed with DEH) and I know it's Lindsay Mendez. Zoe and Naomi had experience with drug abuse in her family, we don't actually know Naomi's real name so my theory is that Naomi's real identity is Zoe and Zoe moved to Florida after she graduated to become a cop. After Connor's suicide she wanted to try and protect kids from the consequences of using drugs and that included depression and possible suicide.
@Musical Nerd LOVE IT
every time I hear lin’s voice I just hear Hamilton talking
Saaaaaaame!
"He spent a week in jail wondering what would happen next" Like is he gonna see Lafayette
Fr tho 😂
Don’t we all
What about Laurens?
Musicals
21 Chump Street: drugz for love
Legally blonde: Harvard for love
Heathers: OUR LOVE IS GOD
Dear Evan Hansen: our love is A lie and so is everything else.
Falsettos (act 1): I don't love lol I'm gay...
Falsettos (act 2): I love you but I also got AIDS
hamilton: revolution and legacy for love. Mean girls: drama for love.
Lol love that
It’s sad this was based off a true story
Really?
Jacy Olafson Yes
Paris thx
yea and sadly things like this happen all the time.
*Aggressively cries on the tile and "dances" like that guy on that vine"*
Man thats messed up! He dis it for her, he would have never done it if it werent for her this would have happened, he probably would have never touched drugs! Its like she framed him, man.. its realistic in a sense, but it sucks.
@Ablahblah Ali Baba her job was to find someone who sold drugs, not make someone sell drugs
@K I N K Y What she did is called entrapment which is very illegal
@K I N K Y And yours is clearly wrong.
@What the fuck is gluten Look at the time frame my guy, If you're willing to argue with someone who barely knew about musicals 3 months (?) Ago then you do you
@Noah Nutter Also, thank you Noah, I didn't know that was a thing
"Justin, say 'goodbye' to college, they got you." But he got straight A's, man! He could've had a happy life. T^T
Not with a felony. He lost so many scholarships and job opportunities. His report cards don't matter anymore.
@Adam Tomkins that's the point of that line
Yeah but you know what? He's an adult now and he pretty well. The life can been difficult but he's well. (You know this musical is a real story. Justin Laboy is a real man)
He wouldn’t of been in this mess if she didn’t do this
Really pretty musical. I hope the woman who acted as Naomi in real life was able to listen to it <\3
okay but she acted in it...
@marquis de lafayette What Marisa L meant was the person who pretended she was Naomi in real life, with the real Justin
I would treat you right, Anthony
My heart... I can't just hug the child
This is stupid he's not guilty for love he wasnt that type of guy
*curls up in a ball on couch listening to this and crying* Anthony's characters can get a break can they?
Wait,
What did I miss?
I just want his characters to be happy...
That would be enough
Tee I think the writers are going to have to
Say no to this idea
I think he’s not
Satisfied?
Listen "Naomi", you told him to take the money. He even told you he don't hang out with people like that. He doesn't even know what it looks like. You TRICKED him into doing what he did. So fuck you. Excuse my language.
Oh fuck you Niomi
OH MY GAWDDDD!!! I remember hearing that little siren and thinkin it sounded so fimilar but it’s also from ten duel commandments !!! Sorry I spell wrong I’m just so freaked out. Wow Lin your musicals are great and really similar lool
*weird crying*
She didn’t do jack shit to make the world safer. She manipulated and busted a kid who had never sold or done drugs in his life up to that point and only did it the one time cause SHE asked for it.
Wait she asked for it. He didn't sell the drugs. (Well not really) She forced him to take the money.
@Michael G yeah saw it after this comment then couldn't find the comment
He only did it because he loved her, and he kissed her at the end of the money.
Technically the girl set him up. So framing kind of?
@Ablahblah Ali Baba Yes, true but she should have stopped when he said no he didn't smoke weed. He said he'd do it just for her, and she should've known.
i cry every time... :(
I feel like this cop did something wrong like entrapment but whatever i guess?
Oh it most definitely entrapment. She manipulated him into selling her drugs just so she could make an arrest, she wasn't trying to protect schools she was ruining lives
Ben she manipulated him because she knew he liked her and used that to her advantage and manipulated him with that and fourced him to take the money which caused him to go to jail so yeah he went to jail for no reason
@Noah Nutter
It actually technically wasn't entrapment, but it was pretty close. He suggested getting the weed for her, even though he basically led her into it.
Yeah she basically peer pressured him to do it
Its true. Her job was to catch drug dealers, not to make a new one by manipulating someone.
i just love how anthony can't get a happy ending in musicals
Gabriel DuBransky which is the other musical ?
@Jimin’s Jams Anthony played John Laurens and Phillip Hamilton from Hamilton. They both died. Then there is this musical. I'm not too sure if he preformed in any other musicals because I haven't heard anything about it because I live under a rock.
IT’S SO TRUE 😭
LavendrPeach LavendrPeach And Phillip Hamilton
IN THE HEIGHTS
Awww poor Justin💔
This show makes me hella paranoid
DONT DO DRUGS. STAY IN SCHOOL KIDS.
Soccer Mom DONT DO SCHOOL. STAY IN DRUGS KIDS
EVEN IF A NAOMI SHOWS UP AND WANTS YOU TO GET WEED
DONT DO DRUGS KIDS :D
Just Some Hamiltrash yeah don't do it
Especially squips
Oh shoot sorry I smell sharpies and expo markers wayyy too much
@Ava Theurer ESPECIALLY the evil tic tac.
