Homicide: Life on the Street, Season 3
[Munch and Lewis are talking about a historic building they plan to turn into a bar]
Penelope Smith-Haddon:
Surely you can understand our desire to protect that history, especially in connection to George Washington.
Munch:
George Washington?
Penelope Smith-Haddon:
George Washington... In 1793, he was traveling from Mount Vernon to Philadelphia. He stopped here.
Munch:
He stopped here?
Penelope Smith-Haddon:
Of course, it was a residence at the time.
Lewis:
George Washington slept here?
Penelope Smith-Haddon:
Well, no...
Munch:
He had dinner?
Penelope Smith-Haddon:
No.
Lewis:
So what did he do here?
Penelope Smith-Haddon:
Apparently the President, just coming from a dinner party where he had consumed quite a bit of wine, was in something of a bind. He had no time to seek out a public chamber pot.
Munch:
Are you telling us the reason we can't tear down the bathroom is that it's where George Washington once took a whizz?
[She nods]
