Arrest that woman! Now!

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

No, wait! Isn't this the village square, where according to law, everyone is allowed to speak his or her mind?

You're right, Señorita. [yelling to the crowd] The woman is allowed to speak! But arrest anyone who listens.
. . .

Charlotte Taylor Wilson
[to the crowd]

Let your voices be heard! Oppose the… greedy bloodsuckers!

Charlotte Taylor Wilson
[She drops her pamphlets. Diego picks them up and hands them to her.]

Thank you. I'm Charlotte Taylor Wilson. I'm with the People's Independence Committee.

Don Diego Vega. I'm with the… greedy bloodsuckers.

The peoples are quite happy working the land for the caballeros!

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

You don't really believe the people are happy!

[quietly]

All I know is the soldiers are very happy shooting the peoples who say the peoples are not happy.

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

Could you tell me where I might find a decent inn?

An inn?! With all your talk about the people, I see you like decent inns! And you wear expensive clothes, not the rags. And you smell of the sultry perfumes, not the… ship oil.

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

Ship oil? [pauses in puzzlement] You mean the oil from boats?

No, ship oil, from the ships in the field.

Charlotte Taylor Wilson
[slowly]

What ships… in the field?

Jou have never heard of the ships in the field? The little, uh… baa-baa-baas?

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

Oh, you mean "sheep"!

Jes, that is what I said.

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

No, you said "ship"! Forgive me, but you have a very pronounced accent.

Jou're trying to change the subject from the fact that jou are actually… very wealthy.

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

I am not… very wealthy!

After all, what poor woman can afford three names? Answer me that if you can, Señorita [counting off on his fingers] Charlotte… Taylor… Wilson.

Diego Zorro

Now I know it is permitted for a man to be… bulnerable.

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

It's "vulnerable".

Diego Zorro
[As the Alcade's men approach, Zorro takes his leave of Miss Wilson.]

And when I return, we will not have to worry how to pronounce, ah, ah… "bir—"

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

"Virgin"!

Charlotte Taylor Wilson
[The guards move Charlotte away from and Diego onto the execution platform.]

You're the bravest man I have ever met.

[nervously]

I'm very impressed with myself, too.

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

I have only one regret…

Diego Zorro
[to himself]

One? I have one for every day I'm not going to live!

What jou like for a wedding present?

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

For myself, nothing. But I thought for the people, you might donate your land.

I give my land to the peoples? If we give away my land, where you think we gonna live?

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

Boston!

Boston?!

Charlotte Taylor Wilson

It's really the only civilized city. The best food, the best art, the best music!

The best music. You gotta be joking! I spent a week in Boston once, and I don't think I heard a decent Mariachi player in the city!
