    Script Thingy

    Setting: Alamo, D.C.


    Characters: Santa, Davy, Jim, SFA, Andrew, Travis
    Narrator (Jillian): The date is February 23, 1836. Santa Anna and his troops have just
    arrived in San Antonio and have started laying siege to the Alamo.
    Santa (Brian): We outnumber them. We can easily defeat them. Soldiers, get ready
    to fight!
    At the Alamo
    Davy: The Mexicans are coming! We fight to the death!
    Jim: Everyone to the battlements!
    (Everyone runs to the battlements)
    Santa: Greetings Texans! Muy bien, I see you brought your army of eighty, maybe
    hundred soldiers. But look behind me. I have thousands of soldiers ready to march
    into battle at my command! MWAHAHAHA!!! Do you wish to surrender now and be
    executed in peace or face my army and die as another casualty?
    Davy: WE SHALL NEVER SURRENDER!!!
    Santa: Your decision has been made!
    (red flag is hoisted)
    Santa: You will not be shown an iota of mercy from me when I defeat you. Soldiers,
    prepare to fight!!!
    Travis (???): Arms ready and
    Travis/B: FIRE!!!
    (loud gunshots)
    Narrator: On February 24, 1835, Bowie is found to be sick and is diagnosed with
    tuberculosis. Although faced with managing the whole Texan army at the Alamo by
    himself, Travis bravely writes a letter from the Alamo stating that he will never give
    up or surrender to Santa Anna.
    Travis: If this call is neglected, I am determined to sustain myself as long as

    possible & die like a soldier who never forgets what is due to his own honor & that
    of his country. VICTORY OR DEATH. William Barret Travis. (sighs)
    Jim Bowie: (cough) I cannot fight anymore. Travis, you must never stop fighting or
    surrender to the horrendous Santa Anna.
    Travis: I will not, Jim. We will win the Alamo and our independence. Santa Anna will
    never prevail!
    Jim: Dont worry about me anymore. Go help others who are sick or wounded and
    reassure the women and children.

    Narrator: Meanwhile, Stephen F. Austin struggles to explain his situation an enlist


    help from the United States, despite being a friend to the President.
    SFA: Hello, Andrew. Texas is in an extremely dire situation and I have come to
    humbly request your help.
    Andrew: All right, Stephen. What do you need?
    S: Texas is losing the war against Mexico. Travis, Bowie, and their garrison have
    been trapped in the Alamo with Santa Anna and almost 1500 Mexican soldiers
    waiting outside. As of now, losing the Alamo and all the people in it, including
    women and children, seems imminent. To help us win this war and make up for our
    losses, I would like support in the form of men, supplies, and weapons.
    A: (sighs) You have put me in an extremely difficult situation, Stephen. The United
    States sympathizes with Texas and its fight for revolution, but we cannot afford
    another war like the War of 1812 with yet another country. If we openly support
    Texas, Mexico is sure to declare war on the United States, and I do not think the
    United States is ready to fight that war.
    S: (sighs heavily) I understand that you cannot help me, Andrew. Your loyalty as
    President is to the United States first and foremost, as it should be. But perhaps you
    could help me indirectly?
    A: How do you mean?
    S: You do not have to officially declare yourselves our allies and fight Mexico, but
    can support us quietly.
    A: I will think about it.
    S: Thank you very much, Andrew.
