Synopsis

When Zorro falls ill, the local priest is desperate to find somebody to take his place and defend the local populace against the cruel French governor. However, the man he chooses turns out to be a disastrous swordsman, at least he is until he consumes a glass or two of wine. Once under the influence of alcohol, the poor substitute is transformed into a brilliant duelist who is more than a match for the evil French governor.
