How do we remember the Alamo?

This particular Laredo episode does not emerge from a very silly concept. All Texans remember the martyrs of the Alamo who died to the last man delaying Santa Anna so Sam Houston could organize the infant Texas Republic's army. They do to the point of never letting anyone else forget it.

Captain Parmelee sends his 'best' men to investigate rumored border crossings and the guys wind up in the town of Porfirio. The jail has been occupied by John Marley who says this should be a Mexican holiday, after all it was a Mexican victory.

Meanwhile bandit James Farentino with his men crosses the border for a little old fashioned stealing and mayhem. When he steals, he steals completely. Picks the town clean of horses, weapons, and even boots.

This episode was just too darn silly.

Rounding Up Illegal Mexicans

It's "Alamo Day" in Texas. After increased illegal border crossings, Parmalee (Philip Carey) sends Reese (Neville Brand), Chad (Peter Brown), and Joe (William Smith) out to round-up intruding Mexicans, and sent them home for the holiday. Arriving in the town of Porfirio, Chad and Joe face brown-faced James Farentino (as Paco) and his bandits. Meanwhile, Reese has confronted older Mexican John Marley (as Alvar de Aveles), who has offended townspeople by flying his country's flag. Taking Reese hostage, Mr. Farentino's gang heads for the border, with Chad and Joe in hot pursuit

This episode features a very tedious location footage trek; probably, it was meant to please viewers watching "IN LIVING COLOR, on NBC!" Farentino (not a Mexican in real life) does very well as the villainous "Paco". Marley's supporting character, a proud and "sympathetic" Mexican, comes across well, also. Look for James Doohan (as Mike Pripton) in a pre-"Star Trek" bit part. Unfortunately, the interesting cast can't raise the story above ordinary.
