And the closings were also done to formula. There was always a señorita, and Cisco always collected his kiss. Said Radio Life: "For each dark-eyed conquest he has a string of pearls {'they belonged to my sainted mother'} and a kiss before he rides off with Pancho into a blazing desert sunset." Up came the dreamy organ music: the señorita would breathe, "Ooooooh, Cisco!" and Cisco would answer "Ooooooh, señorita!" The action would cut to the trail, with Cisco and Pancho riding away on their horses, Diablo and Loco. There was always a terrible closing pun by Pancho, with Cisco reacting in great disgust. Oh, PAN-CHO! Oh, Ceesco! Whooping laughter, galloping horses, and out.
