Interrogating My Character and Objectives

Questions On Interrogating My Character and Objectives 


First Watchman 



The Watchmen Team

Who am I?


I am the first Watch man of the Watchmen and I am in charger of Watchmen 2 and 3 because I out rank them, however, even though I out rank them I am not smarter than them because we all possesses the same amount of intelligence throughout the play even when our leader Dogbre and Verges are not in sight, we count ourselves as equals , in a way we could be see to be "Brothers of the Watch" no one greater than the other man but  not equal in the aspect of service for our leaders Dogbre and Verges. My job as a Watchmen is to obtain orders and not talk back to my commanders, however, My fellow watch ,an brother and I tend to talk about to Dogbre by questioning on how he wants us to do his stupid commands that don't always makes sense, even though we know he is not smart, we fear Dogbre because he is from a different land , where they have big machines and powerful robots , as its better to live in fear than to not live at all.

What time is it?

ACT 3 SCENE 3

 Act 3 Scene 3 it seems to be the early mornings of the day because our characters are based on the US training of Iraqi rebel solider and research shows that the Americans use to wake them up very early in the morning because they were trying to teach them discipline, therefore, since verges is inspecting us, It suggest that it is very early in the morning.   


ACT 2  SCENE 1

Act 2 Scene 1 is set around mid-day/Night time because the scene before this is the scene is a scene for parties and celebration and in the Elizabethan period parties normally start at Mid-day/sun set and lasted until the next morning or the first sign of first light.

ACT 4 SCENE 2 
Act 4 Scene 2 is set in the prison and the scene before this is when we captured Conrade and Borachio and it was about midday, therefore, I think it would be around night-time that we are in the prison, moreover, since its nigh time, this would not cause problems with Leonatos family and our guarding of the family and the streets . 


Where am I ?

ACT 3 SCENE 3

In Act 3 Scene 3 it says in the script that I am in the street, therefore, I thought it suggests that I am on the streets of Leonatos villa is protecting his home as a guard of the town. Since we were the watchmen I believe we are on the street trying to keep the peace and watching out for anyone that we believe our leaders would be seen to be doing wrong like Conrade and Borachio.


ACT 4 SCENE 2 

 In Act 4 Scene 2, I am in the A prison with Dogberry, Verges , Sexton, Conrade , Borachio and my other watchmen. Since we are in the prison I believe it is a dirty and grime places to be in, therefore, Dogberry and Verges will be looking disgusted, however, the watchmen may feel quite normal because this is what we are use to dirty and nasty places to live and work around.
  
What surrounds me?

The people that surround me throughout the whole play is My Watch-brother and my leaders Verges, Dogberry, Sexton and Leonatos family, friends and servants. 


What's my relationships? & Who are my Friends?


My relationships between the Watchmen and Myself is very strong because we see ourselves as one and equals. The relationships feels like its been strong since for ever, this implies that we have known each other for what feels like for every. My relationship between Dogberry, Sexton and the Verges is shakey because I don't really respect them but i have to pretend that I do respect them because I am afraid of them all because they are not from where I am from, they are different and I see them as foreign, this aspect of fear is shown every time Verges and Dogberry talk because the watchmen tend to shake of fear after they finish saying their last word or sentence. 

My relationship between Conrade and Borachio is a relationship of complete hate throughout the play from when we over hear them talking to the very end of the play when the watchmen guard the ending party celebration. 

Who do you openly like?

I openly like my watchmen friends and the family I serve because I feel a vibe of feeling like I am wanted throughout though two groups of people because I feel like my watchmen friends will always be there for me and I feel that even though I am not apart of Leonatos family, they haven't made me feel like I am just an outsider that just protects them from danger and people wanting to hurt them , this family made me feel like I was one of them even though I am not actually one of them.

Who do you openly dislike? and Who are your enemies?

I openly dislike Conrade and Borachio because I suggest that they are "villains" for calling the princes brother Don John a villain because I basically work for him through the service I do for Dogberry and Verges, I also respect Don John as a man because I am afraid of him and he is a big American powerful man.

Who do you secretly like?

I secretly like Sexton because he continuously insults Dogberry and Dogberry doesn't have a clue about what he is talking about therefore, he tends to say thank you to Sexton for insulting him to harshly. I secretly like him because if my leaders knew I liked him they would believe that I do not fear him and they would begin to be harsh to me as they are to each other and Dogberry the most.

Who do you secretly dislike?

I secretly dislike Dogberry because if he doesn't believe I am on his team and like him, he may kill me or have me killed because he already believes that my watchmen friends and I are useless, worthless creatures that are below him and unneeded, another reason that I secretly dislike him is that we give him good beneficial ideas and we don't get a simple thanks you or even "good job", which I believe is horrible because we truly do all the work, for example, we police the streets , the homes and catch the people in the wrong and all he does his just take the credit for our hard work.

What happened before the scene starts and what happens after the scene?

Before Act 3 Scene 3 began Claudio has been told that Hero is not as pure as he thought she was, therefore, Count Claudio now decided not to marry hero and that Don John and his friends should come with him to go approach the young child of Leonato to show everyone that she is not innocent and that he will not marry her.
After Act 3 Scene 3 Hero is talking to her maids about her plans to get Benedick and her older cousin Beatrice together because she knows that they will not come together to find romance by themselves because they are both really stubborn , therefore, she decided to help them express the love for each other by force instead of letting the romance happen naturally.

Before Act 4 scene 2 Beatrice and Benedick have been talking about their love for each and this scene is all about them knowing that they love each but no one wants to say that they love the other first , therefore, it is a lot of flirting and playing around with each other.
After Act 4 Scene 2 Claudio and his friends have meet up to get ready to go to Leonatos house so that they can go disgrace young hero in front of the whole Assembly and God.

My Obstacles 


 


My Objectives and My Actions



 

 




 


My Character as an Animal 

A Wolf

I strongly believe my character would be part of a wolf pact because as part of the Watchmen I tend to work together with the other watchmen to get what we want, this is shown in the play when we apprehend Conrade and Borachio, we worked as a unit to arrest them and bring them to justice. A wolf would have done anything for his fellow wolves and I think that the watchmen show little signs of this throughout the performance, for example, When Dogberry attacks one of us , the other two watchmen say sly quite comments against Dogberry that only the Watchmen hear and understand.


A Wolf

 

 


  A DOG

I strongly believe my character would be seen as a Dog because a dog is really go at just following orders and the watchmen are constantly made to follow the orders of Dogberry and Verges right from the first time they are told to walk onto the stage by Dog berry until when they are told to leave the stage with the prisoners that they had apprehended called Conrade and Borachio. Since sense of following orders to the book was founded in the improvisation rehearsals that we did and Dogberry made us do various exercises before Leonato came to inspect us to book us for the party he was going to be hosting that is later shown on page 12, therefore, I believe we did really well in trying to link our improvisation to the play that we are doing.
