- Sarah: [writing a letter] Dearest Mother. I can hardly believe it's been a fortnight since I bade you all farewell. I miss you terribly, get my heart is also filled with delicious anticipation of the new life which awaits Father and me in the colonies. I look forward to settling in Dr. Franklin's home in Philadelphia, and long to see Father again when he returns from the wilderness. I' proud to have a brave explorer as my Father. I wear his locket always. We'll all be reunited on the wonderful land he is sure to discover. I shall be true to my word and write to you every day. Your loving daughter, Sarah.
- James Hiller: Why are you destroying the tea?
- Moses: We're protesting unfair taxation. Parliament raised the tea tax over our objections. Maybe next time, they'll listen.
- James Hiller: I'm a journalist for the Pennsylvania Gazette. Now, what do you have to say about the tax protest?
- Sarah: Is that what this is about? Disgraceful! The tea is private property. This is so uncivilized.
