The recent episode of Netflix's 'Banditos' thrusts Miguel into a heart-stopping frenzy. Following a tense encounter with his father, Miguel unravels the true nature of the treasure (a jaguar statue requiring three stones for location), Miguel returns for his father's diary

However, a shocking twist awaits him – his father was captured by the evil archeologist who is looking for the stone. Simultaneously his entire team has been abducted by unknown assailants.

Amid the chaos, the police not only apprehend Miguel but also detain the entire crew. They initiate an intense interrogation about the details surrounding a mysterious individual named 'Louis,' who died following an incident where his stomach, bearing a tattooed map, was scraped.

Undeterred, the resourceful team devises a daring escape plan using a pen and a prosthetic leg (you read that right!). However, their escape is thwarted when they discover they've been bailed out.

Surprisingly, the mysterious Ariel emerges as the savior, using this opportunity to probe Miguel about his mother. However, before Miguel can unravel this new mystery, a chilling phone call throws him into a desperate race against time.

The caller issues an ultimatum, Miguel must surrender the three stones, or his father will be killed. With his team scattered, his father in danger, and a relentless enemy hot on his heels, Miguel faces a seemingly insurmountable challenge.

Will he be able to reunite his team, decipher his father's diary, and locate the remaining stones before it's too late? Tune in to the next episode of 'Banditos' to find out!
