An episode where Panfilo de Narvaez, the Butcher of Caonao, manages to prove himself the least competent conquistador to ever live. Truly an idiot, his fortune was based upon friendship with an aristocratic relative who happened to rule Cuba. Outnumbering Cortez roughly six to one, he managed to lose his men, his post and his eye. But his next adventure would make prison and disfigurement seem like a miraculous victory - tune in and find out. What an Idiot!
