No, I won't do it.
I'm not criticizing you, Don Alejandro.

I am not condemning the others
who have signed the oath.

But why should I place myself
and my family in jeopardy

when I am leaving here anyhow?

It is my father's position
that you should not leave.

At least not right now.

I'm glad your father is
no longer with us, Alfredo.

He could not have stood the spectacle
of his son running from a fight.

I am not running from a fight,
Don Alejandro.

And I did not come here to argue.

I have reached a time of life

when a man wants peace,
security and contentment.

This is no longer possible in California.

Was there ever a time
when men could find security

if they were not willing
to fight for their rights?

Please. My mind is made up.

Do you not realize what you are doing?

If you leave now, it is like
making the first hole in the dyke.

Others may decide to leave also.

We have worked and planned,
and built and dreamed.

All of this is for our children
and our children's children.

How can we surrender it without a fight?

These are the same arguments
you gave me six months ago.

And each day, things have
become worse instead of better.

Let me tell you one thing.

Things will never get better anywhere
if people run from their problems.

Perhaps things would get better here
if the landowners stood united.

Then it is your thought that we would
take the law into our own hands?

Absolutely not.
I am leaving here tomorrow for Monterey.

I will ask the governor
to give us official recognition.

We will stand as an army,
but without uniforms.

We will be ready to defend our home,
our country and king against any enemies,

from without or from within.

We are so far from Spain,

and it is so difficult for His Majesty
to send reinforcements,

that it seems that
this is the only real solution.

I just hope I'm not signing
my own death warrant.

You will not be sorry, Don Alfredo.

We will stand together, all of us.

You know, there are other men
who are signing oaths like this,

in San Diego, Santa Barbara,
Buenaventura and elsewhere.

Shall I take this to the library, Father?

Si, por favor.

Con permiso.

I will take the signed petition
with me to Monterey.

But Diego will have a list
of all of those who have signed.

And in case of any great emergency
while I'm gone,

he may call all of you together.

Did you come through
the entrance in the sala?

You must be more careful, Bernardo.

Even though my father is not at home,
there are the servants.

Sergeant Garcia?

Oh, there you are, Don Diego.

Well, Sergeant,
this is an unexpected pleasure.

Si.

- Won't you step inside?
-Gracias.

Be seated, Sergeant.

Well, to what do we owe
the honor of this visit?

I am the bearer of good news, Don Diego.

You are about to have company.

Well, that is good news. Who's coming?

It is His Excellency,
Señor Jose Sebastian de Varga,

the new Administrado
for the southern area of California.

He's on his way now.

- He's coming here to visit me?
-Si.

Well, thank you for bringing me
the information, Sergeant.

I shall endeavor to receive him properly.

Do you think I could persuade him
to remain for dinner?

Si. I think so.

Well, if you'll excuse me,
I will go and inform the servants.

Oh, uh, will there be others?

Don Diego, there's a little something
I think I should explain to you.

The Administrado wants a hacienda

while his house and town
is being repaired.

And just think, Don Diego,

of all the many fine haciendas
in the area, he chose yours!

Let me see if I understand you, Sergeant.

Do you mean to tell me
that the Administrado

intends take over this hacienda,
whether I want him to or not?

- Oh, no, I did not mean to imply that.
- But it's true, eh?

-Si.
- Well, Sergeant, I cannot allow this.

- I am sorry, Don Diego.
- I will ask you to wait outside.

You can tell the Administrado
if he wants this hacienda,

he will have to come and take it by force!

Please Don Diego,
do not take this attitude.

My father and my father's father have
defended this place, I will do the same.

Don Diego, how could you defend it?

The Administrado has all the soldiers
at his command. We have no other choice!

Will you leave now, or do I
start my defensive battle immediately?

I will wait outside
if you wish, Don Diego,

but please put away that sword
before you cut yourself.

You heard?

Well, this is it, Bernardo.

No more pretense, no more masquerading.
I'm going to fight as Diego de la Vega.

I'm going to defend this hacienda
or I will die in the attempt.

I know you heard.

You mean we could eavesdrop
on the Administrado?

You're right as usual, Bernardo.

At least we can listen
and learn the meaning of this.

Right now there are
too many things we do not know.

I'm sorry, Don Diego,
but the Administrado is here.

I thought I should tell you.

Of course.
I hope he finds our hacienda adequate.

Don Diego, this is His Excellency,
Jose Sebastian de Varga.

Your Excellency,
this is Don Diego de la Vega.

His Excellency is the new Administrado
for the southern area of California.

- A pleasure.
- Your servant, señor.

May I present my secretary
and associate, Juan Greco?

I trust that you will find this hacienda
adequate to your needs.

It is a great privilege,
having a man of your stature as our guest.

- Quite impressive, Don Diego.
-Gracias, señor.

I should explain to Your Excellency that
my father is away from home at present.

I know.

I had the pleasure of meeting
Alejandro de la Vega in Santa Barbara.

He was going north as I was coming south.

- On his way to Monterey, I believe.
-Si.

- To see the governor?
- The point I was making, Your Excellency,

is that you will be most comfortable
in my father's room during his absence.

If you will follow my man,
he will show you to my father's room.

I should explain, he cannot hear or speak.

Well, gentlemen, you must both be tired
after your ride from the pueblo.

Shall we go into the library
for a few moments and relax?

Gracias.

Please, be seated.

Perhaps a glass of wine?

Thank you.

This is our own vintage.
We are quite proud of it.

Gracias.

Most excellent, Don Diego.

Gracias, señor.

Will Your Excellency be with us long?

It may be for some time.

My father may be returning
within a week or so.

That is all right.
He will be welcome here.

Welcome in his own home?

Well, I do not believe
the Administrado meant it quite that way.

I meant it exactly that way.

Please understand, Don Diego,

it would be within my province
to take over this hacienda

and request that you
and your father leave it.

But I'm a reasonable man.
You are more than welcome to stay on here.

At least for the time being.

Well, the trouble, Your Excellency,

is that my father may not
be quite so reasonable.

He might be more inclined to dispute
your right to take over his home.

You mean he might be inclined
to call on his friends and neighbors,

who fancy themselves to be soldiers?

They might attack the Administrado
and the soldiers of the king?

I did not say that.

And it is just as well that you did not,

for that might constitute treason.

There is no need to argue about
the statements that a man does not make.

You have a splendid library here,
Don Diego.

I had no idea so many books
could be found in Los Angeles.

We are quite proud of it, señor.

Many of these books
have histories of their own.

I repeat myself.

Your father will be welcome
at this hacienda when he returns,

so long as he recognizes
that I am in charge here,

and deports himself accordingly.

If you gentlemen will excuse me,

there are some things I must attend to.

Might it not be wise, Your Excellency,

if we do not arouse
young de la Vega unduly?

He may be able to provide some opposition.

I asked for your advice, did I, Greco?

- I merely--
- I will not have you tell me what to do.

You will learn to do
what is assigned to you

and you will be much better off.

Si.

Do not be misled by snap judgments,

impressions picked up
on the spur of the moment.

I know all about young de la Vega.

He's a young popinjay.
A great disappointment to his father.

He will run from a fight
if we give him half the chance.

What a pompous, egotistical fool.
This is too much.

I can no longer live in the same house
with a man like that

and keep up this pretense of pacifism.

I came within a half-inch
of throwing him out the window.

I have no proof, but I am sure
the Administrado is an agent of the Eagle.

We'd better get everything like this
out of the room.

There may be too many prying eyes here.
Too many people snooping through drawers.

What is it, Corporal?

I just wanted to make sure
you were in here before I took on my post.

Your post?

Si. I have to stay with you
at all times to protect you.

To protect me from what?

Just to protect you.

Oh, you see?

I'm a prisoner in my own house.

It is my understanding
that you assigned the corporal

to stay with me at all times
in order to protect me.

Now, uh, may I ask you
the question he was unable to answer?

Protect me from what?

I am sure the corporal is no specialist.

He would protect you from anything
that might present itself.

You must understand, Don Diego,
that it would be very embarrassing

for the Administrado
if anything should happen to you

while he was occupying your hacienda.

Well, all this is most gratifying,
but I would feel much more comfortable

if I did not constantly
have a soldier at my elbow.

There is nothing personal in this,
Corporal.

It's just a question of principle.

If it bothers you, Don Diego,

I will assign the corporal
to stand guard outside the hacienda.

After all, I am sure you're perfectly safe
inside these walls.

Corporal, you are hereby assigned
to stand guard on the outside.

Shall we adjourn to the library?

Oh, if you gentlemen will excuse me,

I will speak to the servants
and join you shortly.

It is not necessary, Don Diego.

I have already instructed
the soldiers to take over

the menial chores of the hacienda.

But even this, Your Excellency,
I will have to explain to the servants.

That's strange, Bernardo.

These are not clipped as were the others.

But at least we know the Administrado
does work for the Eagle.

- Sergeant.
- Well, what is it?

This wine is for the Administrado.

Well, take it to him there,
in the library.

Si, Sergeant.

You told me I should
show you everything before I served it.

Those were the Administrado's orders.

Well, you've shown me. Now serve it.

Si. Then I'll come back
and take away the dishes.

Well, Corporal?

Well, there you are, Sergeant.
I was looking for you.

Did you expect to find me
sitting on top of the table?

No, Sergeant.
But since I was looking in this direction,

I thought perhaps there might
be something left of that leg of mutton.

- But I don't see it.

Obviously, they ate it all up.

The bone, too?

What are you doing here anyway?
You're supposed to be guarding Don Diego.

The Administrado told me
to stand guard outside the hacienda.

Outside?

Follow me.

- Sergeant!
-Si, Administrado.

There's a satchel on the stand,
next to the highboy.

- Bring it in here.
Of course, Excellency.

You were supposed to guard the outside,
so go outside and guard.

Outside!

I'm going to see
what's going on in the library.

Si, Administrado.
I will personally remain on guard.

I warn you, you'll pay with your life
if you make any more stupid mistakes.

Do you mean the satchel?

I told you not to
let it out of your sight.

Anyone could have picked it up.

But what would it mean to anyone?

Do not argue with me. Do not question me.

When I tell you to do something,
I want it done.

Somehow, someway
we must find out who these men are

who would make up
Alejandro de la Vega's army.

Well, say something! Don't just sit there.

Yes. Remain here and watch.
I'm going to the secret room.

Look for a moving panel
or a loose board.

Or any group of books
that seem to be fastened together.

I've been over this before
and I haven't found a thing.

There are no loose boards in the floor
that I could find.

But I know these old haciendas
and how they are built.

Many of them have secret passageways,

and almost all of them,
secret compartments to hide valuables.

Slow down.

You mean... You think
they've found the secret passages?

We will go over
the entire hacienda, inch by inch,

until we find what we want.

We cannot wait. Somehow we must stop them.

Yes, come.

Oh, Don Alejandro claims to have a list

of 50 men who are willing to die
for their country.

How can you be sure he has a list?
Perhaps he has the names all in his head.

Not 50 names.

I'm sure he must have them
written down somewhere.

And if they are so willing
to die for their country,

we will soon oblige them.

I think I've found something!

Look at these.

Those things are not important now.

Let us first get rid of our enemies

and we can pick up those ornaments
by the bushel.

Maybe this is it.

- This is the list of names!
- Drop the list.

If you read one name from it,
I will kill you.

Drop it!

Make no outcry, I warn you.

Permit me to introduce myself.

I am El Zorro.

Take your bandas off
and stand back to back.

Zorro!

Guards! Guards, Zorro is in the sala!

I have him trapped. Capture him!

Help! Help me!

Help!

Hold him, Don Diego! We are coming!

- It's locked.
- Then break it down!

He went over the balcony.

Look! There he goes!

Whenever you gentlemen are ready,
I will show you the rancho.

It would be a good idea if one of
your vaqueros rode along with us.

Yes. Acquaint us with the boundaries
of your holdings

and help to locate the cattle.

Oh, I just remembered,

I have to write a letter
to my father in Monterey

before the coach leaves today.

Would you excuse me?

Well, if the vaquero comes along with us,
we won't need Don Diego, will we?

Of course.

What is the matter?

These are my father's papers,
the ones that Zorro took from the library.

"Señor, I have one question.

How much are you willing to pay?

Meet me in Los Angeles
as soon as possible.

Have your answer and money ready.

Signed, the Eagle."

Apparently this is a letter
that Señor Varga received from the Eagle.

You're right, Bernardo.
This has not passed through the mails.

Well, this can mean only one thing.

Our pompous house guest is the Eagle!

But why did he come here personally?

There is no doubt about it.
He is here to tighten the noose on us all.

I'm afraid we've almost reached
the hour of decision, Bernardo.

Our lives, our fortunes,

the whole future of California
is at stake.

No, Bernardo. I'm afraid a dozen Zorros
could not stop these men.

They're too well-organized.

We'll fight to the limit of our ability.
We will do our best.

No man can ask more than that,
even of himself.

Next week,
death for Zorro draws ever closer

as the agents of the Eagle
set a most cunning trap.

Because I'm asking it of you.

Do what you wish with the sword,
I will tell you nothing.

Get him!

Drop the sword, señor.

Next week, intrigue mounts,

adventure and action
sweep to an amazing climax

in the exciting life of Zorro.
