Here's adventure.

Here's romance.

Here's O. Henry's famous Robin Hood of the Old West,

"The Cisco Kid."

(bell tolling) What's this with you, Vejar?

Window shopping?

We gotta get busy before the whole town wakes up.

I was only looking around, trying to make sure.

The only one who makes sure around here is me, El Puma.

Sí.

Are you sure you know what to do?

Sí.

Bueno, good.

Come on.

Vejar, you hearing me?

While you're up there, you make one little peep, so much as even

like baby mouse and you get scrambled all over the roof.

¿Comprende?

Sí.

Now up, quick.

Estúpido, you want to wake up the whole town?

(footsteps approaching) What's this?

What's happening here?

Who's up there?

It's me, Padre.

El Puma.

El Puma!

You know me, eh?

Bueno.

Maybe you also know I'm one tough hombre and

I shoot pretty good, see?

What do you want?

Maybe first, instead, I'll tell you what I don't want.

Now, I'm a religious man.

I respect the church.

So what I don't want is to spill blood on the cloth.

Comprende?

What do you want?

A very simple little trifle, Padre.

Like, uh, maybe a bell?

The bell?

Of Santa Margarita?

Sí, I think that is what she is called.

This bell I want very much, Padre.

Hey, you, Vejar.

You about finished up there?

Sí, I got it.

But you can't.

You can't do this.

Please, El Puma.

Listen.

You don't know what this bell means to Santa Margarita.

Maybe you don't know what this bell means to me.

And please keep your voice down, Padre.

You'll wake somebody up.

But the town, the people.

Think of them.

Do the people of the town ever think of El Puma?

No.

And El Puma got no time to think about them.

Now just take it easy, Padre.

Everything, she's gonna be all right.

(bell dinging) Fool, you want to wake up

the whole town?

Pronto.

Adiós, Padre.

No, Puma, no!

Please come back!

Cisco, tell me why it is every time we come to

Santa Margarita and the church bells ring,

I get the geese pimples.

I guess everybody does, Pancho.

You see, it's a very holy bell.

Supposed to have wonderful powers.

Oh.

Those bells, they do miracles, no, Cisco?

Well, I wouldn't say that, Pancho.

It's said to be lucky, especially when it tolls

for a wedding.

Bueno!

Then it's gonna toll for the little muchachas

who are getting married.

That's what the legend says, Pancho.

Hey, Pancho, this is weird.

There isn't a soul on the street.

Suppose something is wrong?

Cisco, every time we go someplace, something is wrong.

You know, I don't get no geese pimples.

The bell ain't ringing, Cisco.

Maybe they're waiting until after the ceremony.

Cisco, I don't like this.

It's too quiet.

It's more like a funeral than a wedding.

Just what I was thinking.

Come on.

Cisco!

Pancho!

Praise be to Santa Margarita that you have come at last.

Come in please.

Gracias, gracias.

What is it, Don Fernando?

What's wrong?

Yeah, where-- where is everybody at?

Most of our people are in the church praying.

Of course.

They're at the wedding.

But why aren't you there?

I was waiting for you, amigos.

We were both waiting for you, Cisco.

Luisa!

Why aren't you in church?

What's the trouble here?

A terrible thing has happened to our village.

Something terrible?

What's happened?

What do you mean?

It is not the wedding that our village prays for

today, amigos.

They pray for the return of our bell.

The bell of Santa Margarita?

Yes, it was stolen last night.

Stolen?

Madre mia!

It was El Puma.

El Puma, the bandito?

The same.

Felipe and I, without the blessing of the bell...

Oh, Cisco, we're afraid to marry now.

Don't worry, little Luisa.

You and Felipe will have the bell of Santa Margarita

to bless your marriage if we have to track El Puma from here

to the moon to get it.

Believe me.

That's a fact.

I hope so, I hope so.

Pancho, El Puma has quite a start on us.

We better get moving.

Vamos.

Bueno, let's went.

Pancho, slow down.

We should find El Puma's tracks along here.

Looks promising this way.

These tracks look pretty fresh.

Cisco, you think them tracks is from the bandito El Puma?

It's possible, Pancho.

They're good and deep, too.

Whoever rode through here rode pretty hard, that's for sure.

Well, we'll give it a try anyhow.

I don't know, Cisco.

It will be like hunting for noodles in a smokestack.

You know, this El Puma, he don't go in all directions.

If he did, Pancho, we'll go in all directions

until we find him.

Cisco, you know what's bothering me?

What's that?

Why a big bandito like El Puma want to steal

a little thing like a bell?

Pancho, that's what I'm trying to find out.

(laughing) Maybe he thinks it's full

of diamonds and nuggets, eh?

Oh no.

As far as I know, it's made of cheap bronze, of no value to

anybody except the people of Santa Margarita.

Cisco, you know another thing what's bothering me?

(bell tolling) You think maybe he's loco

for bells?

Hey, Pancho, listen.

(bell tolling) Hey, Cisco,

there's a bell ringing.

You think maybe that's Santa Margarita?

We'll soon find out.

Sounds like it's coming from over there.

Come on, vamos.

(birds chirping) (bell tolling)

(bell tolling) No, Santos.

What do you think this is, a cow bell?

This is a gentle bell, so treat him gentle.

Now ring him soft, sweet, like she's reciting

pretty poetry.

Not like you're shooting off the cannon.

(bell tolling) Pancho, I'm going to

get behind him.

You keep him busy.

You understand?

Sí, yo comprendo.

(laughing) (laughing)

Hey, Pancho!

Pancho.

Pancho, where are you?

(bell tolling) So, Cisco,

we meet again, huh?

You are getting tender in your old age, El Puma.

Why didn't you kill me?

Now why would I kill my old friend the Cisco Kid?

You think I don't got no morals?

Where is Pancho?

How should I know where's Pancho?

It's enough I know where you are.

You made a very bad mistake, El Puma.

You know why we came here?

Sure.

You came for the bell, I know.

I also know you're tied up like cuffs and I've got the gun.

This is a mistake?

Cisco, you're one whopping big headache to me.

I'm glad to hear that.

You haven't done my head any good either.

Always you and Pancho, you get in my way.

What's the matter, don't you like El Puma no more?

Let's just say I don't like you when you go around stealing

other people's property.

Oh, Cisco, you gotta be reasonable.

Is it not true the church belongs to all the people?

Then the bell, she belongs to the people too.

So who's the people?

Me.

All I did was take my own bell.

What's wrong with that?

You just get me out of these ropes and

I'll show you what's wrong.

No, Cisco.

I like you much better like you are.

But you know, Cisco, it hurts me to do a thing like this to you.

Why you got to be on the wrong side of the fence

like this anyhow?

A nice hombre like you.

Don't you got no pride no more?

Suppose we stop talking about you and me and talk about

that bell.

Bell, bells.

You and me together, we could be the best banditos

in the country.

But no, you gotta have bells.

El Puma, why did you take it?

That, amigo, is none of your business.

All right.

Then here's something that is my business.

Now that you brought me here, what are you going to

do with me?

This is a problem.

I love you like a brother, so I can't kill you.

Thanks.

So I tell you what.

You stay here until the bell stops ringing and then we talk

about it some more.

Bueno?

Yeah, amigo, but that could be forever.

No, amigo, only for a little while,

I hope.

I think maybe I don't tell you this, but... poor Pancho.

Vejar's aim much better than I think, I guess.

You mean Pancho is...

Pancho.

(pebble plopping) (pebble plopping)

(grunting) ¿Cómo estás, señor?

Have you hear the bells ringing lately?

Well, you're gonna hear some more bells ring.

Cisco.

Pancho!

Am I glad to see you!

So am I.

You think I get lost?

What happened to you?

Oh, just a little scratch, Cisco.

Hey, what about the guard outside?

He's taking a little snooze for himself.

Come on.

Let's get out of here.

Now.

Let's went.

(bell tolling) There it is, Pancho.

(bell tolling) What are we going to do now?

Jump him?

Not yet.

Let's first see what he's all about.

At least now she can hear the bell of Santa Margarita,

she will rest easy.

The church means so much to Michaela.

Sí, Manuel.

I know.

All this could never have been without you, El Puma.

I-- I don't know how to thank you.

Don't thank me, Manuel.

I only wish I could have done more.

I wish-- I wish I knew how to make your Michaela

well again for you.

(bell tolling) We've got to get out of here.

Over to the corral, quick.

What about the bell, Cisco?

Later.

What we've got to do now is more important.

Stop!

(gunshot firing) Cisco-- they're getting away!

Here, Pancho.

The tree!

Oh...

That Cisco.

Always he does this to me.

Puma, better maybe we should go before he brings

back the rurales.

No, we stay and watch over the bell until Manuel's wife,

she is well again.

Rurales or no rurales.

Understand?

Sí.

(bell tolling) Put your gun down, El Puma.

We brought help for Michaela.

Padre!

We come in peace, El Puma.

You.

Keep ringing that bell, understand?

Cisco asked me to give what comfort I could to your friend.

I can't believe.

Manuel, come quickly.

Cisco, I don't understand.

Why?

Why you do this thing?

El Puma, I found out why you took

the bell so both Pancho and I thought we'd help you out

a little bit.

What an hombre, this Cisco.

Never I know what to expect from him next.

Father Miguel.

Father.

This... this is too much.

Much more than I ever dare hope.

Take me to your wife, my son.

Sí, Father, this way.

Michaela, Michaela!

Father, she heard the bell.

My prayers and the holy bell.

Now my Michaela is gonna be well again.

It's like a miracle, Father.

It is a miracle, Cisco.

The miracle of faith.

Let us bow our heads in thanks, my children.

This is a day of greatness.

(bell tolling) Thanks for everything, Cisco.

And you, Pancho.

You made us all very happy.

It was our pleasure, Luisa.

All the luck in the world to you.

Come again soon, amigos.

You are always welcome in this house.

Thank you, Don Fernando.

We'll remember that.

Pancho, vamanos, eh?

Adiós, amigos.

Adiós.

Adiós.

Que les vaya bien, ¿eh?

(bell tolling) You ever hear such a tone

from a bell in all your life?

Oh, she's beautiful.

But tell me, El Puma, how come we don't go to the fiesta?

We were invited too.

Estúpido.

This affair is not for hombr like us.

Besides, I-- I feel good inside after what happened with

the bell.

I don't want to spoil it by stealing all

the pretty presents.

(laughing) You know something, Cisco?

What, Pancho?

These bells, when they ring, they still give me

the geese pimples.

Maybe you want to get married too and you don't know it.

You mean, Cisco, it's catching like the measles?

Holy jumping hot dogs, let's get out of here right now, Cisco.

Oh, Pancho.

Oh, Cisco.

(laughing) Adiós, Padre!

Adiós, Padre!

Goodbye, amigos!

See you soon!

Ha!
