Episode 67 (cont)

"He is a rather arrogant jackass, isn't he," said Diego. To which Alejandro replied, "My son, you insult the jackass."...Sue K., who absolutely loves that line.

Why does Alejandro de la Vega say "My son, you're an insult to the jackass" in episode 67?
I just came across this on the Faves site. Doesn't this episode come after Alejandro knows Diego's secret?

Venil,
He doesn't say that.
What IS said is: Diego: "He is an arrogant jackass, isn't he?" (referring to Basillio)
Alejandro: "You insult the jackass."
Okay? It's easy to misinterpret sometimes. But this is a conversation I especially like. Good humor and at a time in my life when saying 'jackass' wasn't swearing. In other words, way before I was old enough to refer to someone as a jackass, and then it ended up BEING crass and swearing! I missed the boat there.

(Diego has come to see the chests loaded onto the coach, and watches as the coach leaves for the harbor.)

(Bernardo explains to Diego that there were six chests, not just the three that were sent to Spain.)
