‘Ghosts’ Star Brandon Scott Jones Dissects Isaac’s Gripe With Alexander Hamilton & Teases “Beloved Returning Characters” Before Season 4 Ends

deadline.com:

SPOILER ALERT! This post contains details from Thursday night’s episode of CBS‘ Ghosts. Audiences, and the rest of the residents at Woodstone Mansion, now finally understand why Isaac Higgintoot (Brandon Scott Jones) has held a grudge against Alexander Hamilton for nearly 250 years.

Thursday night’s episode of Ghosts takes us back to 1776 to see the drama between Isaac and Alexander unfold in real time, as Isaac recounts the story to Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar) while advising him against focusing too much on his culinary nemesis who seems to be thriving while Jay’s restaurant is struggling to bring in customers.

As it turns out, Isaac has looked down upon the Founding Father for all this time because he stole Isaac’s neck ruffle — one he’d reserved two weeks in advance, no less — to show him up at John Jay’s house on the night of what was supposed to be the official signing of the Declaration of independence.

That is, until Isaac’s pettiness got the best of him, and in trying to prove Hamilton had indeed stolen the neck tie, he accidentally sets the document on fire.
