Zorro S01E17
Transcript
00:05Out of the night, when the full moon is bright, comes a horseman known as Zorro.
00:14This bold renegade carves a Z with his blade, a Z that stands for Zorro.
00:25Zorro, the fox so gliding and free, Zorro, who makes the sign of the Z.
00:37Zorro, Zorro, Zorro, Zorro, Zorro, Zorro.
01:05What do you mean, bursting in like this?
01:07The coach is here.
01:08Oh, did you contact the messenger?
01:09I didn't dare get close.
01:10One of the Viceroy's spies was on the coach.
01:12A spy?
01:13Oh, oh, you did the right thing.
01:15We can't take chances now.
01:18Not if the messenger brings me the word that I expect.
01:22Not if it's for the Viceroy's spy.
01:27Take care of the matter.
01:34Yes, it's a nice saddle, Hernando.
01:36Don Diego!
01:39Excuse me.
01:42Assume command of the troops and return to the quartel.
01:45I will be in the tavern.
01:46See you, Sergeant.
01:49Well, Don Diego, you notice anything?
01:52You're looking very splendid, Sergeant.
01:54No, I mean, you notice nothing else.
01:56It is not so tight now.
01:58Ah, you're reducing.
01:59But I thought I heard you tell Corporal Reyes you were going to the tavern.
02:03Oh, just for a bite to hold me to lunchtime.
02:06As you suggested, Don Diego, I'm eating very light breakfasts.
02:09But, Sergeant, I told you a dozen times, you must not...
02:12No!
02:22What is the matter with him, Don Diego?
02:25This man is dead.
02:27Do you know him?
02:28No, but he arrived today on the coast from San Pedro.
02:31Oh, then he must have come on yesterday's boat.
02:52No, no, no, no, no.
03:03I don't know what he's going to do.
03:05Search the Pueblo, then report to me.
03:09Sergeant, this is a dangerous place for a civilian.
03:12I'd better be getting home.
03:13This is a dangerous place for anybody.
03:15I...
03:16I think I'd better get back inside the quartel,
03:18just to give my men confidence.
03:30That carriage outside, who's here?
03:32Three people?
03:33Do we know them?
03:36Two of them are women, huh?
03:37Beautiful.
03:40Uh-huh.
03:43Yes, Bernardo.
03:44Another eagle feather for our collection.
03:47This one killed a man.
03:49A man who came on yesterday's boat.
03:52The murder was done to look as though an Indian had committed it.
03:55Notice this, the way the notches are cut.
03:58Now, this feather, I took this from Roja's hand the day he was killed.
04:03That is right.
04:04Cut this way, it is some kind of death signal.
04:07Diego!
04:13I thought I heard you come in.
04:15I did not wish to disturb you, Father.
04:16I saw you had guests.
04:17Don Francisco Montez.
04:19Don Francisco?
04:20But I thought he was ill.
04:21He never goes anywhere.
04:22His daughter has returned.
04:24His daughter?
04:25Magdalena from Mexico City.
04:26You may have heard that she is very beautiful.
04:29Yes, I have also heard other things.
04:32About the beautiful woman and wealth.
04:34People make scandals, my son.
04:36A gentleman does not listen.
04:38Very well, Father.
04:38Since it does not concern me, I will not listen.
04:40But it does.
04:41I have invited all our friends to be here tomorrow night
04:44to celebrate the homecoming of Magdalena.
04:46Francisco and I have thought you might take her for a drive.
04:49Show her around.
04:50You and Don Francisco have become quite close
04:53since he has a marriageable daughter, haven't you?
04:54My son, this time you settled.
04:57No one lives forever.
04:58I would like to see grandchildren in this house.
05:00And the Rancho Montez is good land.
05:02It would be a fine match.
05:03I see.
05:04We increase our acreage and our family at the same time, huh?
05:09Diego, I find you increasingly irreverent.
05:11When you see Magdalena, I think you will find that...
05:14Father, may I see you tomorrow?
05:16There's much I have to do today.
05:17If you will not accept the responsibilities of a gentleman,
05:20at least adopt the manners.
05:21Even if it means sacrificing one afternoon
05:23of idleness, poetry, and music.
05:25I will change my clothes.
05:27I will go right down, huh?
05:28Very well.
05:30One thing, Father.
05:32Do not count your grandchildren yet.
05:44Diego, my dear boy.
05:46Don Francisco.
05:47It has been a long time.
05:48Much too long.
05:49You're looking very well.
05:51Don Inez?
05:51Diego, I am so glad that you and Magdalena...
05:55Diego, you remember my daughter Magdalena?
05:57She was only a baby when we left Los Angeles.
06:00As you know, she was raised in Mexico City.
06:02That is an excellent recommendation for Mexico City.
06:07That's beautiful.
06:08What is it?
06:09I don't know.
06:10I heard it's played by a street musician, and I loved it.
06:14It's much too pretty to be just a tune.
06:16It should be a song.
06:17But you need words for a song.
06:19I find that you need words for almost everything.
06:21However, I have some I should like to suggest.
06:24What are they?
06:26Welcome home, Magdalena.
06:28I feel as though I am home now.
06:30But still, I'm glad you did not know me in my awkward growing up stage.
06:35We might have had a beautiful childhood together.
06:37Diego, you spoke of wanting to take Magdalena for a drive to a point of the Pueblo.
06:42My father speaks my mind with the utmost precision.
06:45Would it be possible to have a bite to eat before we go?
06:48And something for me, too.
06:53My aunt will watch over us as Duenia.
06:56Whatever fun we might have had, we are not children now.
07:00I find that the older we get, the more watching we need.
07:08Don Diego, tell me, what do you think?
07:11Will they send a new comandante?
07:13Well, who can tell?
07:14What about the murder this morning?
07:16It is being investigated.
07:18It is such a lovely day, Sergeant.
07:19Sergeant, how would you like to take a drive and meet a lady?
07:23Meet a lady?
07:25Oh, you are so kind, Don Diego.
07:29She is beautiful.
07:31What a face.
07:32And that hair, it is...
07:33I do not mean, Senorita Montez.
07:35It is a rant in the back seat I am talking about.
07:38I thought you were my friend, Don Diego.
07:41Dona Nez is a lovely lady.
07:42I just remembered I have some work to do.
07:44Excuse me, I...
07:45Sergeant, remember your promotion?
07:47It is not enough to be a good soldier.
07:49You must have a social position.
07:51Now, as the husband of the wealthiest widow in the Pueblo of Los Angeles, your position
07:56will be irreproachable.
07:58The man who becomes Dona Nez's husband is going to be a very fortunate man.
08:03You know, Don Diego, I think the one who was her husband is the fortunate one.
08:09Dona Nez, this is Sergeant Garcia, Comandante of the Pueblo, a gallant soldier, and for some
08:16time, your admirer.
08:18I am delighted to meet you, Senor Comandante.
08:26Would you excuse me a moment?
08:31Has the murderer been found?
08:33Well, what did you find?
08:39They buried him?
08:40On whose orders?
08:44Sergeant Garcia, eh?
08:46So the case is closed and they buried the body.
08:49All right, Bernardo, I'll see you home.
08:51Yes, it is true, Dona Nez.
08:52A soldier's life is one of sacrifice.
08:55Your aunt is a very understanding woman, Senorita.
08:58Did you know Diego saw a man murdered today right in the Pueblo?
09:02These are bad times.
09:03Uh, get in, Sergeant.
09:04Uh, I am so glad you are with us, Senor Comandante.
09:08With a soldier along, I feel safe.
09:11Ha, ha, ha, ha.
09:15Well, there's no denying it.
09:17Sergeant Garcia's presence does carry weight.
09:20Ah, ooh.
09:37One of our better sights.
09:39Oh, it is beautiful.
09:41An enchanted lake.
09:46Why are we stopping, Don Diego?
09:48To admire the view.
09:50It is beautiful.
09:51A beautiful place for a picnic.
09:53But we have no food.
09:57Huh?
09:58What do you mean, Don Diego?
10:00Remember your promotion.
10:02Oh, I see, I see.
10:12I used to swim here when I was a child.
10:14It seems like such a long time ago.
10:16I would love to come out here sometime to swim.
10:20Oh, but I'm afraid that would shock my father very much.
10:23Auntie Nez, oh.
10:25Does it shock you?
10:27Well, let's just say that I'm not entirely unmoved by the idea.
10:31Ha, ha, ha.
10:34Comandante, how gentle, how kind.
10:39A soldier with the heart of a poet.
10:42Senora, it is possible to be a soldier and still appreciate the finer things.
10:46I am sure you are very brave.
10:49Well, I don't.
10:50And modest, too.
10:54Comandante, tomorrow night.
10:57Don Alejandro is giving a little party for Magdalena.
11:00There is to be dancing.
11:02Naturally, you dance.
11:04All officers dance.
11:06Oh, of course.
11:07I dance a little when my feet don't hurt.
11:10Say you will be my escort, Comandante.
11:14It's funny how things happen and how people can change.
11:18You were very determined not to like me when we met today.
11:21Oh?
11:21Mm-hmm.
11:22And how do you know?
11:24Hmm.
11:24How do you feel now?
11:29Determinations change, too.
11:34Don Diego!
11:38Well, obviously, we should have drowned Sargent Garcia.
11:42Doña Inez thinks we should be getting back.
11:45Comandante Garcia is hungry.
11:48You know how it is with these men of action.
11:50A big man, a big appetite.
11:55Not such a big appetite.
11:57I just appreciate good food.
11:59The Sargent's appreciation is boundless.
12:02Now you seem happy, Senorita Montez.
12:05But this morning, when you arrived on the coast from San Pedro, I did not think you liked our little
12:09pueblo.
12:10Oh, then you came on yesterday's boat.
12:13Did you have a nice trip?
12:15It was a long one.
12:18I had an encounter with a fellow passenger of yours.
12:21A fellow passenger?
12:21Yes, a small, dark man with a rather, uh, French-looking moustache.
12:27Oh, Senor Mendoza.
12:29Yes, he's the one.
12:31He's dead.
12:32Dead?
12:33Shot with an arrow.
12:35I tell you, Sergeant, it is no longer safe to walk the streets of the Pueblo even in the daytime.
12:39Oh, forgive me, Senorita.
12:41I did not know he was a friend of yours.
12:44Oh, I barely knew him.
12:46On shipboard, you meet everyone.
12:48It's late.
12:49I think we'd better be going home.
12:51Thank you, Diego, for a very instructive tour.
12:55It has been most instructive for me, too.
13:54Welcome, Your Excellency.
13:55I regret official duties made me so late.
13:58Good evening, Don Francisco.
13:59Senor.
14:00May I offer my congratulations and my condolences?
14:04I do not understand.
14:06You have regained the daughter,
14:07but from the stir she's making among all the young men of the Pueblo,
14:10you will soon lose her.
14:20May I be permitted to meet this already famous young lady?
14:24But of course, Magdalena.
14:28His Excellency the King's magistrate has asked to meet you.
14:34Excuse me.
14:37I was not wrong when I told you she was beautiful, eh, Diego?
14:41Now, Father, you are not wrong.
14:43But it is very simple.
14:45Two steps to the left,
14:46two to the right and two to the left again.
14:49Now, you can remember that.
14:50Oh, see, I can remember it, but my feet, they cannot.
14:54Oh, it is so warm.
14:56Permit me.
14:57Oh, thank you.
15:04You have something for me?
15:09He's only a death meal. He can hear nothing.
15:12Why did you kill Senor Mendoza?
15:14He was sent by the Viceroy to spy on you.
15:17They know.
15:18Not yet. They only suspect.
15:20Oh, but then to kill him without...
15:22You're not playing with children.
15:25Now do what you were sent to do.
15:37Be especially nice to the magistrado. Offer him a drink.
15:40But, Don Diego, I was just...
15:41Remember your promotion.
15:43Your permission, Don Ynez.
15:44A military matter.
15:50No, I don't want anything to drink.
15:53If you don't get out of my way...
15:54Oh, excuse me.
15:56A thousand pardons, Your Excellency.
15:58It's all right, but tell this idiot I don't want anything to drink.
16:01Bernardo is a little difficult.
16:04Oh, look, here comes Sergeant Garcia.
16:06Your Excellency, what a magnificent evening.
16:08On such a night a man could dance forever.
16:11Wine, music, wine, ladies...
16:13Sergeant, what is the matter with you?
16:15Well, I am a little thirsty.
16:16Thank you for asking me.
16:31Sergeant, if you will excuse me, I am in a hurry.
16:33But, Your Excellency, just one small glass.
16:36Sergeant, what do you think you're doing?
16:38I just got rid of this idiot.
16:39But, Excellency, I meant to say...
16:41That is, I thought...
16:41You thought?
16:43When did you start?
16:45Home.
16:46Oh, I'm sorry, Your Excellency.
16:47I'm a little unsteady.
16:49But, since you're having another one, I'm afraid...
16:50I am not having another.
16:53With your permission, senores.
16:57Don Diego, I don't think he likes me.
17:00Well, at least you have for one unqualified admirer.
17:05Let's do it.
17:16Come on.
17:38Oh, there you are.
17:40Diego, I was going to talk to Francisco.
17:43Well, we have all our friends here.
17:44Wouldn't that be a good idea to announce the engagement?
17:46No, no, Father, no.
17:48Not leaving already, Your Excellency?
17:50Oh, no, no.
17:52I had forgotten something in my carriage.
17:55But, Diego, only a moment ago, you seemed to think...
17:58Believe me, Father, an announcement would be premature.
18:01And it's getting late, and this party has gone on long enough.
18:04Excuse me.
18:10Good night, Diego.
18:15Diego, you must come and visit us as often as you like.
18:17You'll be surprised, Senor, how soon you'll be seeing me.
18:21Ha!
18:25Don Alejandro, it has been a most enjoyable evening.
18:28Your Excellency has made it an honored one.
18:32Maestado's hired killer.
18:35When I cut that feather, I thought I was signing his death warrant.
18:38It was Magdalena's.
18:40Now, she's as guilty as the rest of them.
18:42But I cannot let her die.
18:45Yes, my friend. Saddle the black horse.
18:47Diego!
18:48His Excellency has agreed to sample our new shipment of Madeira.
18:52I'm sure His Excellency must be tired.
18:54Oh, no, no, no. I'd love to try the Madeira.
18:57Perhaps the sergeant would also care to sample it.
18:59Thank you, Don Alejandro, but I've got to take...
19:02I mean, I am privileged to escort Don Inez home.
19:05Oh, I will stay, comundante.
19:08Who could resist the wishes of a strong man?
19:12Will you not step into the sala?
19:17Don Diego, would there be maybe some of that chicken left from dinner?
19:20Yes, but another would take care of all that.
19:21And wasn't there rice with that?
19:23Oh, and that delicious gravy, eh?
19:25Hold in there, Sergeant.
19:26Gracias, Don Diego, gracias.
19:29Sergeant, will you pour the wine, please?
19:31Of course, Don Alejandro.
19:33And now, if you will excuse me, I have a headache.
19:35Ah, Diego.
19:36Pardon me.
19:37There is no finer remedy for a headache than Madeira.
19:40That is just the trouble, Your Excellency.
19:42I have already had too much Madeira.
19:44Hey, Sergeant!
19:45Huh?
19:46Oh, I will take it.
19:49Please, these are our guests.
19:56One would almost think Don Diego had a rendezvous
19:58if we had not seen the young lady leave with her father.
20:04The king.
20:06You must excuse me.
20:07I've had too much.
20:08I must get some air.
20:14You're going to have to take my place.
20:18No, it's Diego.
20:48We're being followed.
20:51We're being followed.
20:51Hey.
20:52Hey.
20:55Hey.
20:56Fire me.
20:58Fire me.
21:00Fire.
21:01Oh, get out of the hands.
21:25Just a little to wash down the excellent chicken.
21:29Sergeant, why not simply put a funnel down your throat?
21:31Oh.
22:03Ah!
22:07Ah!
22:10Ah!
22:12Ah!
22:22Ah!
22:22Ah!
22:28Ah!
