00:00Ready, Captain?
00:13En garde!
00:25Fancy one last bounce, Captain.
00:30It's raining swords, Excellency.
00:40Captain, what is the meaning of all this?
00:43This was a warm-up.
00:45You scored quite well, by the way.
00:47Do not patronize me.
00:49Captain, you lasted eight and a half minutes against, well, me.
00:55Ahem!
00:56Apologies.
00:57Don Esteban Parasol, Viceroy of California.
01:01Allow me to introduce the legendary fencing master of Monterey.
01:04Maestro Antonio Ramirez de la Poterna.
01:11Don Diego de la Vega.
01:13Very impressed.
01:15And this is my friend, Bernardo.
01:17Given our recent difficulties, I invited the Maestro to Los Angeles to train the men in new techniques to be used against...
01:27Zoro, of course.
01:29He has humiliated your men.
01:31Hm.
01:31Yes.
01:32And thwarted every single one of your plans to ensnare him.
01:35Ugh.
01:36That bandit was just very lucky, that's all.
01:39And bested you in each and every sword fight.
01:42Did he not?
01:43And your point is?
01:44Uh, my point?
01:47Oh, yes, of course.
01:53Aha!
01:54I, too, could benefit from Maestro Ramirez's instruction.
01:58So could you, Don Diego.
02:00You must be taught so you can face him.
02:02And everyone we trust, soldiers and rancheros, should also be made invincible.
02:08And what if that Zoro attacked the de la Vega Hacienda?
02:11Or another Hacienda?
02:12Or the palace?
02:13That would be terrible, Viceroy.
02:15But it shall not happen.
02:17The only problem is, I am against using violence.
02:21It ruins spiritual harmony.
02:22Oh?
02:24Why don't you say that to Zoro?
02:26Just enjoy it.
02:28Consider it...
02:30Exercise.
02:31Exercise?
02:32Under the scorching sun?
02:34In this dust and sand?
02:37Come on, Don Diego.
02:39We have a deal.
02:40A bit of exercise will do us no harm.
02:43See you tomorrow for a lesson.
02:52Yes, this pretentious fencing master deserves to be taught a lesson.
02:57Huh?
02:58I cannot risk being unmasked.
03:00So I shall show them the extent of my talent.
03:10Pathetic.
03:12Worse than pathetic.
03:14Very well now.
03:16You soldier are sure of winning against my grandmother.
03:21Frankly, Captain, you haven't given me much to work with.
03:26And still, you've yet to see the worst.
03:29Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
03:34Who taught you to use a sword?
03:35My grandmother.
03:37Your grandmother, Sergeant?
03:39Where?
03:40In her kitchen?
03:41Oh, in her kitchen, too.
03:43But, but...
03:45Silence, Sergeant.
03:47We've not come here to hear about your family life.
03:50This Zoro must know every attack, every thrust taught by your very, very basic,
03:56basic, archaic, simplistic repertoire.
04:02In short, bad.
04:04Totally bad.
04:05Worse than bad.
04:06Badissimo.
04:07Pathetic.
04:07Appalling.
04:08So, we must teach you a new move.
04:12A secret thrust of my own invention that he cannot know.
04:16The Maestro's Thrust.
04:19En garde!
04:19Attack, Sergeant.
04:21But, why me?
04:23Because you're a sergeant.
04:25Sergeant?
04:26Hmm?
04:27Sir, if the sergeant is not up to the task, I am at your disposal.
04:32What?
04:32You?
04:33A corporal?
04:35And who said I'm not up to the task?
04:38Ah, you did.
04:40Oh, that.
04:41That was a strategy.
04:44En garde!
04:45Oh, that, Sergeant, is your new secret thrust.
04:53Against Zoro.
04:54Side step is attack, switch hands, slice down, slice up, disarm, then in for the finish.
05:01Move, Sergeant.
05:03We haven't got all day.
05:04Yes, Captain.
05:05We'll try it at half speed.
05:07On guard!
05:08Ah!
05:08Now switch!
05:09Got it!
05:10Oops!
05:11Ah!
05:12Ah, well, keep working on it.
05:15With some effort, you should nail it down.
05:17Before the 20th century.
05:20At least, I hope so.
05:22You'd better master Maestro Ramirez's instruction immediately.
05:26Yes, Captain.
05:28Or you will find yourself back on laundry duty.
05:31Maestro!
05:32Maestro!
05:33En garde!
05:35I did it!
05:41Captain!
05:42Maestro!
05:44Did you see?
05:45Did you see?
05:46I...
05:47At least you saw me.
05:52Right, Gonzales?
05:53I saw nothing.
05:54Nothing at all, Sergeant.
05:55All right, gentlemen.
05:56Well, Maestro, I'm as ready as I'll ever be.
06:01Proceed.
06:03Don Diego, that is a ceremonial sword?
06:08Ah, it is indeed.
06:09It was a gift from my father, Don Alejandro de la Vega.
06:13And it is completely inappropriate for sparring.
06:17Really?
06:18But it's so pretty.
06:19This is a real work of art.
06:20You should hang it up on some wall.
06:22Let's just find you something a little bit more, um, suitable.
06:28Excellency, you say such frightening things.
06:31Do we really have to fight?
06:32So far, I'm not very impressed.
06:36I'll go easy on him.
06:38But Maestro, he'd take that as disrespect.
06:41No, you must treat him as if he were Zorro himself.
06:45As I would Zorro?
06:47But your Don Diego might not survive such an encounter.
06:52I can live with that.
06:54No, this one isn't even shiny.
06:57Now, Don Diego, before I begin my instruction, I must assess your skill.
07:03So, raise your blade and prepare.
07:05Uh, is it supposed to be this heavy?
07:09En garde!
07:20Is this quite necessary?
07:24It is, Don Diego.
07:25It's high time you improved your skills with the sword.
07:32These lessons have lost all entertainment value.
07:34I believe it is now time for me to take my lead.
07:38Oh?
07:38But, Don Diego, don't you want to improve your skills?
07:41What if Zorro attacks?
07:43Come on, you're nearly there!
07:45One can only hope that Zorro has the good taste to attack with a ceremonial sword.
07:50And then we may both stand there admiring our blades with no damage done.
07:59Completely incompetent.
08:01Ready for your lesson, Excellency?
08:03Me?
08:04Oh, well, of course.
08:08Oh, but my Lumbago is acting up today.
08:14Perhaps we could postpone my lesson?
08:16As you wish.
08:18By that time, perhaps de la Vega will be ready for lesson number two.
08:22When pigs fly.
08:24No, Maestro.
08:26I'm afraid you've scared our good friend, Don Diego, away.
08:29What a pity.
08:30Hm.
08:31Yes, such a good friend who gives up so easily.
08:34Yes, Captain.
08:35A friend who has just returned from Spain.
08:38And a very elegant caballero who honors us.
08:41Elegant?
08:42Indeed.
08:43Have you seen the way Senorita Carmen looks at him?
08:47I bet you wish she looked at you that way.
08:49If the Senorita saw how he handled a blade, she wouldn't give him a second glance.
08:54I must admit, poor Don Diego wouldn't last long in one of our famous competitions.
09:00What a brilliant idea, sire.
09:06Is it?
09:07Absolutely.
09:09Zorro won't be able to resist showing up too.
09:13And then, gentlemen, I know how to eliminate Zorro.
09:19No, I do.
09:20I did get the idea after all.
09:22Brilliant.
09:24That sums it up perfectly.
09:26You know what, Captain?
09:27I surprise myself every day.
09:36Captain Monasterio has organized a competition.
09:39A great fencing competition.
09:43Tomorrow at noon, in honor of Maestro Ramirez.
09:46The winner will receive as a trophy, a beautiful solid gold medal.
09:51Oh, thank you, Dona Maria.
09:54What a wonderful cook you are.
09:56What a wonderful wife you'd make.
09:59A soldier spends hours with his backside on his horse.
10:03Just to fulfill his duty without anything to eat.
10:08Ow.
10:10Ow!
10:10Oh!
10:11It sounds frightful.
10:12Frightful?
10:13Do you think so?
10:14Uh, shapely, yes.
10:16Impressive, yes, but frightful.
10:18Not your backside, Sergeant.
10:20The contest.
10:21It's scheduled for noon, but I never rise before two.
10:25But you have to take part in it, for the de la Vega's honor.
10:28That's just inhuman.
10:30If the son will not compete, then the father's show.
10:33Ah!
10:33Father, no!
10:34It's too dangerous.
10:36But Don Alejandro, would you worry your daughter by taking such a risk?
10:40I assure you, my father would do no-
10:43I'm in!
10:44But father, you are too old for that kind of thing.
10:47Old?
10:48Me?
10:50I'm still at my prime!
10:51Hmm.
10:53Fine.
10:54I will compete, regretfully.
10:56But since it has to be done, I will compete in our father's stead.
11:01And I will make sure no harm comes to Don Luis.
11:04Mmm!
11:05Mm-hmm!
11:06Oh!
11:06Oh!
11:07Oh!
11:09Oh!
11:10Oh!
11:10Oh!
11:11Oh!
11:11Oh!
11:12Oh!
11:12Hmm.
11:16Senores, on guard!
11:21Jerk one peso!
11:23Do you want to put me out of business?
11:25The house doesn't do credit!
11:27Buy a favor!
11:28A favor to give your beloved!
11:30I also have some authentic lucky charms!
11:33The winner will take home the Medal of Honor!
11:36Granted me, by his majesty, our good King of Spain in person!
11:42A treasure made out of real, solid gold!
11:45Oh!
11:46Huh?
11:52Diego, don't you have someone special you'd like to give a favor to?
11:57Senoritas, it was impossible for me to choose between the radiance of two bright suns!
12:06There is no need, father!
12:07The captain has already seen to it!
12:09Diego!
12:10Huh?
12:10No!
12:11No!
12:11No!
12:12No!
12:13No!
12:14Don't overdo it!
12:15Huh?
12:16She's my friend!
12:17But you do know this is to protect her!
12:19Get out!
12:20I'll be honored to escort you, Senorita!
12:23How sweet of you!
12:26And now, Senor Don Diego de la Vega against Corporal Ignacio Gonzalez!
12:33Gentlemen, en garde!
12:42Diego, raise your sword!
12:45You're supposed to preserve the honor of the de la vegas, not sully it!
12:49Father, I can't hold my sword and use my fan at the same time!
12:56Diego, we've not gathered here to fan ourselves!
13:00Could Bernardo possibly do it then?
13:02I feel so hot!
13:04If he could just stand behind me like that...
13:06Diego, look out!
13:10Diego, are you all right?
13:12Of course I'm not all right!
13:14This shirt is made of silk!
13:16Now it's stained!
13:17Probably damaged beyond repair!
13:19Perhaps my Spanish soap?
13:22Quick, take me home, Bernardo!
13:23Not exactly a champion with the blade, is he, Senorita?
13:32The de la Vega's honor deserves far better than that!
13:38I shall take part in this competition!
13:39Father, no!
13:41Well, my friends, that's one objective reached!
13:44You made a fool of your rival in front of the girl!
13:48But there's still no sign of Zorro!
13:52Trust me, he'll be here!
14:00Quick, Bernardo!
14:01We mustn't keep our friends waiting!
14:03They're so eager to catch Zorro!
14:05Let's go, Tornado!
14:30Let's go, Tornado!
14:32Let's go, Tornado!
14:47Congratulations!
14:48Congratulations!
14:49Bravo, my friend!
14:50Bravo!
14:51And our semi-finalists are Captain Monasterio and Don Luis Villalonga!
14:59So, enjoying yourself, Don Luis?
15:02I am Captain!
15:04In fact, I may just win the day!
15:06And our famous maestro's medal!
15:09Oh, will you now?
15:16Gentlemen!
15:18En garde!
15:18Captain, this is a friendly contest!
15:28Not a fight to the finish!
15:31Still think you'll win the day, Don Luis?
15:44Enough!
15:45Enough!
15:45Stop this, Captain!
16:10Zorro!
16:11Zorro!
16:15I'm here for your contest, Captain!
16:26Zorro!
16:27You're going to wish you hadn't come here to taunt me!
16:30I hope that I'm not too late!
16:34Oh, two against one!
16:36You are really spoiling me!
16:38Oh, good work there!
16:45Ah, you've been practicing, Captain!
16:59I see the maestro's lessons everyone is talking about have not gone entirely to waste!
17:04Missed!
17:16Missed!
17:16Oh, yeah, yeah
17:42This is horrible
17:44Uh, why? Is he wearing a silk shirt, too?
17:49So, Captain, how is the water?
17:51Get off me, you fools!
17:53No, Captain, my turn
17:55Now, this is between Zoro and the Maestro
17:59In other words, me
18:01That is why I'm here
18:03To see if Zoro can out-Maestro the Maestro
18:06Well, then, on guard
18:10You are good, I'll give you that
18:16But I am even better
18:21Zoro!
18:25Even if that were true
18:27I do have other skills
18:34For example, my penmanship
18:36Then, there are my barbering skills
18:41Maestro, you will be so much faster
18:43Without that mustache weighing you down
18:45Hmm?
18:46No! My mustache!
18:48You're welcome
18:50So, my fellow Angelenos
18:56Who has won the Captain's Contest?
18:58Elgo!
18:59Gracias, amigos
19:02Soldiers, apprehend that fiend
19:06Oh, Captain, my Captain
19:08Have I overstayed my welcome?
19:10Sergeant, the secret thrust
19:14Huh?
19:18Whoa!
19:20Wow!
19:22Garcia, you executed that maneuver perfectly
19:25Do you really think so?
19:28Yes, it was brilliant
19:29Adios
19:33Adios, Zoro
19:35Garcia!
19:40What a lovely medal
19:45Please do thank his majesty for me
19:47But for now, I must be off
19:49And you call yourself a Maestro
19:52What are you master of, huh?
19:54The art of this humiliating defeat
19:55Oh, but I seem to recall
19:57He defeated you before me
19:59What do you mean?
20:01You pathetic second-rate cancer
20:03It's too bad Diego missed the show
20:15I think it would have been educational for him
20:18I can't believe Zoro faced all those formidable swordsmen on his own
20:23I still shudder at the thought
20:25The sentiment does you credit, senorita
20:28Zoro!
20:29For the honor of the Te la Vegas
20:35Viva El Zoro!
20:38Viva El Zoro!
20:38Viva El Zoro!
20:40Viva El Zoro!
20:41Viva El Zoro!
20:41Viva El Zoro!
20:41Viva El Zoro!
