In this volume
The comic places Pepe’s schooling within a short account of Spanish colonization. At an official gathering, his sister’s dance wins the governor-general’s admiration, and the family asks for Teodora’s release. Her return brings joy, but Pepe questions why the family needed a powerful man’s favor to obtain justice. The volume closes with the beginning of his resolve to seek equality.
