Lots of potty humor -- butt jokes, including passing gas, butt-cracks, sphincter-flexing, diarrhea, and feces; also, references to stealing, and even though Ignacio is helping the orphans, he goes against the church elders to become a wrestler.

While essentially a parody character, Nacho's motives for wrestling are rooted in altruism in the sense that he wants to help the kids in the orphanage to have a better life. 

A street fight and lots of action in the wrestling ring, including flying leaps, body slams, and "the Anaconda Squeeze." Also, some "don't try this at home" stunts involving rocks, arrows, bees, fruit, and a bull. No blood. A character is stabbed in the eye. Comedic pratfall style violence: crotch punches, wedgies, punch-outs, and fall-downs. 

Mild innuendo between Ignacio and Sister Encarnacion ("I was wondering if you would like to join me in my quarters this night…for some toast.")

The Mexican accent is played for laughs, i.e. "puppies" is pronounced "poopies." "Douche" is used in a profane context. "Sucks." Song in which "ass" is the implied rhyme to a lyric. 

Wine drinking at a party.
