DANIEL WATERHOUSE: What if Bolingbroke demands proof that we have Jack Shaftoe?
ROGER COMSTOCK: Look about you. [B'broke's🏠was dark] Behold, we have #won.
D: How do―
R: I can just tell…I saw it in his face.
[Roger turned to a party of his #Mohocks]
R: We have won. Let the word go forth; light the beacons!
MOHOCKS: Hip-hip, Hooray!
GROWING CROWD: HIP-HIP, HOORAY!
[Daniel was slow to take up the cheer. But when he did, he meant it… This was politics.]
