📖 Episode Summary:

In The Runaways, Zorro becomes the unlikely guardian of two frightened orphans who flee the cruel grip of a corrupt military officer. Their only crime? Knowing too much. As the children escape into the hills surrounding Monterey, Diego is faced with more than just swords and politics — he must protect the innocent from being crushed by the wheels of power.

While the Governor turns a blind eye to the abuse, Zorro takes the fight into the shadows, using clever diversions and heart-pounding chases to keep the children safe. But the road to justice is steep, and Zorro must risk everything to confront a man who sees compassion as weakness.
