you scared me.

You came out of nowhere like an assassin.

- What?

Assassin, my uncle's dog.

Did you say

the Pulido's planned a conspiracy?

Yes there's proof.

I can't believe it. Politics...

Look at that face.

As beautiful as a flower.

She needs lace, madrigals.

No, don't tolerate

this abuse of power.

If you're afraid to resist,

you'll starve,

you'll become slaves. You know

how much your grain weighs,

or your animals, but the scale

has been tampered with.

Miss, stop that nonsense.

Those lies won't make a difference.

What do you expect?

That criminal coming to

the rescue again?

Don't fool yourself.

I'm here now.

My presence will keep that

clown away.

Who are you calling a clown,

Sergeant?

Who is that? Where is he?

Tell the soldiers

to drop their weapons.

I need you, Sergeant Garcia.

And I want you alive.

You heard him.

Drop your weapons.

Good, Sergeant.

Now climb on that scale.

- Sure.

There.

Now, let's see how

much you weigh.

How's that possible?

Only 22 kilograms?

You're obviously ill.

Filled with air.

Will you now order those thieves

to pay the real weight,

and the right price?

Or do you plan to resist?

Even though I don't see how.

My compliments, Sergeant.

Got anything else in mind?

I'll teach you a lesson.

I'll kill you, criminal.

Come on. I'm waiting.

I'll get you...

- Get up.

Come closer, Sergeant.

Stand still.

- Of course.

I didn't stand still properly.

I'm sorry.

One, two...

- Where did I go?

Where did I go?

Where did I go?

Good.

Now look.

The guns. Let's thrown them in the well.

He's very good, isn't he?

No, that doesn't count.

You moved.

Fine.

Thank you.

- My pleasure.

Listen up friends. Listen.

Get your merchandise back.

Those merchants

will return them to you.

But I won't be able to help

you all the time.

You need to find the courage

to defend your rights.

Imbeciles. Get him.

Go on.

Get him.

Look, two lovely fishes.

One...

Two...

Go on.

Three...

And four.

Come on. This way.

Right on time. Good.

A nice oil bath.

Let's fry you golden brown.

Get over here, you.

Quickly, go home.

One, two...

Nineteen, twenty.

Where are you going?

Go. Go. You're free.

Go. Go. Long live freedom.

It was you.

You stole my goats and chickens.

I'll have the guards beat you.

He's the thief. Grab him.

Thief. He tried to ruin me.

Sergeant.

A personal remembrance.

- Please no Z on my behind.

Good evening, miss Hortensia.

Thank you.

- My pleasure.

Miss.

- Hello, Tom.

Good evening.

I waited for you, Hortensia.

You're safe. Thank god.

An aristocrat praying for a criminal

on the run from soldiers?

In this country soldiers

only pursue innocent people.

Why was your family prosecuted?

That's a long and painful story.

Why do you ask?

You forget I fight

every injustice.

That includes the grief I see

in your eyes.

The soldiers. Get out of here.

If they catch you, they'll kill you.

They won't show any mercy.

- Don't fear.

Go. I beg you.

See you soon, Hortensia.

Halt.

Colonel, what are you doing here?

Search the premises and question

the count and countess.

Sorry, but my parents aren't home.

I'm in no hurry. I'll wait.

Comb the valley.

- Follow me.

I know

that criminal is here somewhere.

In the meantime,

I need to talk to you.

Leave, negro.

Hortensia, maybe this

isn't the right time.

I'm still waiting for your answer.

Do you want to marry me or not?

- Stay away from me.

It's the perfect opportunity

to save your family.

I understand it would

be a sacrifice for you.

But after a while...

Trust me, you won't

be sorry.

You'll pay for that.

That's enough, Colonel.

If you don't know how to treat

a woman, I'll teach you.

Very brave. First you disarm me,

and now you challenge me.

After all, I am a criminal,

a bandit.

A bandit will do anything

to achieve his goal.

I want you to kneel.

And beg the lady for forgiveness.

You must be insane.

- On your knees.

Now.

I'm an officer.

- You're a villain. Kneel.

Never.

If you haven't kneeled before

your uniform is shred to pieces...

I'll kill you.

On both knees.

Swear you won't

bother her again.

I swear.

I beg you to forgive me.

Now... get out.

You're leaving already?

- He won't bother you again.

Be careful.

I'm worried about you.

I wish I could help...

You're a reason

to live and fight for.

That's how you help me.

I have to thank you for that.

- We'll meet again, bandit.

He seems to be very glad I'm leaving.

A bit exaggerated if you ask me.

Aunt Carmen, are you

taking all your jewels with you?

That's quite dangerous.

What if you run into robbers?

What robbers?

The children of the Cordillera?

I'll kill them

if they show up.

If you say so...

Column, forwards.

Goodbye, aunt Carmen.

What was that?

A careless monkey? No. Bandits.

Nice.

Come out and have a taste of

my blade, villains.

Charge.

Unfortunate souls. Villains.

I'll teach you.

Take that. And this. And that.

Get out of here, cowards.

Good, Captain.

I'll handle it. Have no fear.

Scoundrels.

I'll crush you like ants.

You want some more? Do you?

If you want some more,

come and get it.

Good.

Beautiful. Victory is mine.

You're still here?

Quickly, to the carriage.

- Grab it. Treason.

Where are you going?

Get back here. Stop.

Come on.

- Goddamn thieves.

I'll get you,

even if it costs me my life.

No, Captain.

No.

- They have your treasure.

You're my treasure.

What... ?

Halt.

Come, let's get out of these clothes.

- A fine haul.

Gold, jewels, a fortune.

- The Colonel will be pleased.

There are our pals.

It's Zorro.

What happened?

- Zorro.

Luis Miguel. Luis Miguel.

The Lord poured water

into a basin

and began to wash

the disciples' feet.

After washing their feet

he asked:

Do you understand what I have done for you?...

Good day, ladies and gentlemen.

Please take off your jewels.

And give them to me.

Look. It's the angel Gabriel.

I'll donate them to

the victims of corruption.

The poor could use the gold.

And this way

you can celebrate your humbleness.

I'm sure you'll be more than generous.

I would especially like to thank

all you lovely ladies.

Your beauty

will make this contribution easy

for your rich husbands.

Get up, scumbag. Go on.

Get going. Go on.

- Walk.

I'm here to collect

the soldier's pay.

It's ready.

Look...

Let's go.

To the mine.

32 prisoners

- Take them to the Devil's Mine.

I'm very worried, Colonel.

There have been rumours

about deportation, labour camps.

Aren't you afraid of a rebellion?

I'm terrified,

I'll tell you that.

Your Excellency, I know what I'm doing.

That bandit, Zorro, must

be eliminated.

Whoever helps him,

must be punished.

My God,

Cordillera's bandits.

I told you.

Good heavens.

- My dear.

My dear.

We've had the most amazing adventure.

- What?

Fritz is a hero.

He defeated all the bandits.

He went at them with his sword.

For days we marched through the jungle.

Fritz went hunting

to feed me,
