Bernard is a nine-year-old orphan adopted by the De la Vega family and fulfills the role of family mascot. A lively, quick- witted, happy child, he is considered a son by Don Alejandro, and a brother by Diego. At a certain point in the story, Bernard discovers that Diego is actually his idol, Zorro, and so decides to become &ldquo;Little Zorro&rdquo; in order to help Diego defeat the region&rsquo;s evil tyrants.  Bernard does what he can to help out on the farm, helps Zorro by eavesdropping in on other people&#039;s conversations and plays a rather unusual role as a sort of &ldquo;Cupid&rdquo; in the relationship between Diego and Lolita.

Diego Vega returns from his study trip to discover his homeland is under the army's dictatorship. Diego, refusing to watch idly, disguises himself as Zorro to protect the weak and oppressed. Diego is not a coward but he is unable to win the affections of his sweetheart, Lolita, who is attracted to other more noble men. Diego serenades Lolita as Zorro and fights the evils of his homeland, hoping to capture her heart.
