That's the entire sentiment of this episode.
And well, as viewers always trying to figure things out we may have brought it on ourselves.

One approach of course is to take one story line and then make it endlessly twisty - each twist more diabolical than the last and it's some of the these post Game of Thrones shows where eventually people just can't care anymore. The characters are so contradictory - nothing matters anymore.

The other, more fun approach is to just keep throwing in new characters (who's Guadalupe Montero?), sting out plot points (what is up with the bear pins?) and moving the story around to new locations (how are we in New York - err Nueva York?)

And that is what Zorro has chosen to do, because it is a fun show! So buckle those swashes and let's go! (That will get old, I know. But not yet)

Greta Hardin (The History of American Food podcast & @THoAFood all over)49:T4c4,The 19th Century - the American Spirit really comes from here.
Fighting, Food, Fashion & Fraud
Plus mayhem, bombast, fornication, mendacity, debauchery, slander, sensationalism and vapid triviality... and swearing.

Yet it's the least understood American century - far more than the Civil War, the Railroad & Cowboy Movies. Through 20th & 21st century TV & Movies, Jamie Lewis of Plague Of Strength & Greta Hardin of The History of American food will take up on a wild ride through the most exciting parts. These history junkies will talk you through a wild assortment of media as we discuss things like:

physical culture & body building
medicine shows
carnivals & the circus
sex work
organized crime
& ever so many fights

Plus the 19th century is the source of: artificial purple dye, electricity, coast to coast instant communications, gas lighting, photography, the bowie knife, the colt revolver and the gatling gun, cardboard boxes, cigarettes, refrigerated train cars, bodybuilding as entertainment, modern gymnastics, all the current fighting sports, the submarine, and the very first automobiles.
