The next morning, 13 June, there was consternation in the town when the escape was discovered. Even though they had been under Spanish guard, Cortés and Malinal somehow managed to convince the caciques that the Totonacs were to blame for the loss of the prisoners. Cortés pretended to be angry, ordered a chain to be brought with which he bound the three remaining tax collectors, and had them transported to the Santa Maria for ‘safekeeping’. Once on board, however, he released them, treated them in a friendly and hospitable way and told them he would soon return them to Moctezuma – a promise he fulfilled that night when they, too, with the Totonacs none the wiser, were ferried up the coast and set free.
