Synopsis

When the Governor General visits the town, a group of rogues under the pay of Lieutenant Gabriel try to kill him in an ambush. Bernard and his friends, investigating the incident, come to the rescue, saving the Governor's life.

They decide to exploit the situation in favor of the people by kidnapping the Governor themselves, and demanding, as a ransom, all the tax money the peasants are required to pay to the Army. The Lieutenant and the Captain then hire a killer to murder the Governor, and frame Zorro for the crime, but the masked cavalier foils their plan by killing the murderer and rescuing the Governor.
