* GuileHero: A trademark of Zorro. Instead of using brute force alone, Diego mocks and fools his opponents, goading them into making mistakes in his civilian identity and as Zorro. The above entry under the [[TheGadfly The Gadfly]] is a perfect example of this.

** He kidnapped and enslaved scores of people to slave away in unsafe conditions in his mines and while the idea to blow up the mines along with the people was Love's idea, Rafael still agreed to the idea in the blink of an eye, with Rafael joining Love in fighting both Zorros tooth and nail to carry out the ruthless act.

** In his very first scene he's having random people grabbed from the street to execute them as a bait to draw Zorro into an ambush.

* TheUnfettered: Rafael is evil but he has some scruples. Love has no such qualms; he will resort to murder without any hesitation and when Rafael warns him what will happen if Santa Ana learns they tried to pay him with money mined from his own land, [[LeaveNoWitnesses Love suggests not only burying the mine but also workers along with it when Rafael questions their fate]].

* NippleAndDimed: An averted blink and you'll miss it example; the shot after grabbing Zorro's hat to cover her breasts, Elena spins around and her right breast, nipple and all, is fully visible for a split-second

* BelligerentSexualTension: Parodied; neither Elena nor Zorro hurt the other in their fight, but Elena's clearly trying and getting more furious with each kiss stolen from him. When he beats her, Elena's crush overtakes her senses and she gives in to her urges.

* DistractedByMyOwnSexy: Played with as removing her gown was to distract and arouse Zorro but it just helped him do both to her.



* DistractedByMyOwnSexy: Played with as removing her gown was to distract and arouse Zorro but it just helped him do both to her.
* EpicFail: Played for laughs; in Elena's mind she will defeat Zorro in fencing and retrieve what he stole. Moments later, she's toyed with and defeated, gets her clothes sliced off by her own sword likely taking away some dignity too, she uses his hat to cover herself, gets kissed with the passion of a thousand suns and subsequently, too hopelessly flabbergasted to act, lets Zorro walk away... with his hat. To add insult to injury, he rejects her attempt to kiss him again, and her enormously strict father enters a second after.

* NakedFreakOut: Very justified considering the times and how vulnerable she'd just become. Thankfully she takes it better than her peers might've.

* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: OK, Zorro is really a nice guy and a gentleman, but when she sees him for the first time, she mistakes him for a bandit or someone dangerous, and it's because of this that she is instantly smitten by him.

* CombatPragmatist: His incarnation of Zorro fights dirtier than most.most but this is, of course, a staple of the character. He's not afraid of taking Captain Love hostage to fend off multiple guards (followed by kicking them out a window) and didn't hesitate to cut Elena's nightgown off her during their fight.
* ConfusionFu: A necessity when up against multiple opponents, Zorro's mixture of swordsmanship, acrobatics and clever usage of the environment means he's incredibly unpredictable in a fight. How else do you describe a guy who makes his escape by dropping a gigantic map the size of a wall onto some guards?
