    Things changed in opium since they are in a state of lockdown and nothing is allowed to leave or come inside.

    What does Esperanza’s view of international law mean for Matt? What is Matt to do?
    Since El Patron has died Matt now owns what he had. Since he now owns everything EL Patron had that means that he now is the master of opium

    What was the extent of the suffering El Patron had caused?
    El Patron was the one who had the poor would be doomed to be slaves and was the one who was responsible for the keepers.
    What was Matt’s job?
    Matt’s job was to be in the position that El Patron was in and he had to destroy the wall that kept Aztlan from the United States separated.

    Who greeted Matt in the music room?
    Mr.Orega ANd Celia were the ones to greet Matt inside the music room.

    What happened to all of the Alcarans and most of the bodyguards, including Tam Lin?
    The Alacrans and Body guards both drank wine that had been poisoned and died from it.
    How did Daft Donald survive?
    Daft Donald survived since Tam Lin Told him to not drink the wine that had been served

    Why did Tam Lin not warn anyone else?
    Tam Lin didn’t tell anyone about poisoned wine since he wanted REl Patron’s plan to fail.

    Tam Lin knew what would happen to him by drinking the toast to El Patron. Why do you suppose he drank anyway?
    Tam Lin still drank the wine since he most likely saw it as a way for him to be punished for his sins so he drank the wine.
