Plot Overview

This is a continuation of Zorro adventure beguin in last week's episode. Having previously suffered a setback and humiliation at the hands of Zorro, El Cuchillo leads his men back into Los Angeles where they begin to plunder the pueblo. One item of importance for the bandit leader is to have the embarrassing "Z" removed from his coat, a process observed by the waiting Zorro. Zorro playfully returns to the tailor shop where Cuchillo is just leaving - and leaves his mark on the newly repaired coat. Unfortunately for Zorro, his little prank may have been a serious mistake, because Cuchillo now becomes extremely anxious to win this series of battles.
