Her prayer [in Don't Make Me Come to Vegas] is answered and instead SWEET SANGRIA finds her in Austin, Texas.
There she meets a Latino revolutionary, fighting American intervention in
Central and Southern America. But the more Scarlet is drawn into the fight,
the more she begins to see that she can't go along with hurting innocent
people - on either side. "For him the end justified the means. But although
she believes in the cause, she can't load the gun.. It's about what you
believe in and how far you're prepared to go."
-- Scarlet's Walk bio
"Sweet Sangria has this whole Mexican revolutionary moment. So a lot of the musical influences are coming from the land itself, and the history."

"Well, she's [Scarlet] in Texas. she's in Austin. She's in a very liberal place in Texas where she had met people that introduced her to people that, I guess you can say, are questioning the political intregity of the good guys. quote unquote, the good guys. Meaning us, I guess, those that are called "the good guys". And so this is very much, um, a Central American question. There's a revolutionary-type character that is educating her in some of the transgressions that have happened. And some of the factual things that have happened, and also his point of view, all at the same time. And he's very much about action, and he's very passionate about it. And she's seeing somebody passionate about something. And so she begins to really understand that she's got to know what it is that she believes in. And where she's willing to go with this. Because he knows what he believes in - there's no question about that. And he stands by what he believes in. Really Sweet Sangria is their time together. It's really about them, as a unity."
