Ok so I saw Hamilton for the first time last weekend and my mom and I are OBSESSED. But when I watched the show, I couldn’t help relating some parts to KOTLC and my own theories.... Okay, so I’m not sure how many of you read my theory that Keefe’s mind is breaking, but I’m just going to assume you have for this.

In the song “Wait For It,” Burr sings:

Love doesn’t discriminate Between the sinners And the saints It takes and it takes and it takes And we keep loving anyway We laugh and we cry And we break And we make our mistakes...

You get the idea. But did you catch one word in there? ‘Cause I did.

Break.

And the fact that this is in the stanza talking about LOVE kind of fits with the idea that if Keefe’s mind is broken he’s going to need to be healed. With LOVE. But my theory goes deeper. If Keefe breaks, half of it is going to be because he feels like he’s not good enough for his friends and Sophie. He’s not just going to come back when Sophie reminds him of them. He’s going to need to be reassured that THEY love HIM, and since the only one who can go in a broken mind of Sophie...

Well, you see where I’m going with this.

But... yeah. And if anyone needs me to elaborate on what my theory is and my proof, I can.
