Only, when you access the script via the document, e.g. in the
form "doc.script".

DTML Document tries to avoid acquisition through the document object
(it succeeds partially). In your case, it was successful.

The easiest and safest method is to pass it explicitly.

Inside the DTML Document (say "doc"), you do not have the fully
acqisition wrapped object but only "doc.aq_explicit".
Therefore, access to your script by way of "this()" may fail.
If it would succeed, "this().script" would be the right way to go.
