Colonial leader Beck Bennett then tells Philly, "Philadelphians, you are overdue for victory, and I wish you all the best in your upcoming battle. But if you do win, please, be cool. Okay? Just because the British did not burn down your city, doesn't mean you have to. Do we have an understanding?"

"Nope," replies Fey.
