It's gonna rain again and it's dry in there.
It's dark and it's, you know, horrible.
Yeah, well. I should have two votes, because I really don't like the cave. In fact, I should have three, because I really, really don't like the cave.
I hate bats. Bats are rats. Rats with wings.
No, they're intelligent. Bats make noises you cannot hear.
What's the point of that? Noises you can't hear.
What if there was a noise nobody could hear.
And then if you were the only person in the world who could hear it. Because I am that person. To see sense where others see nonsense. Just like the bat. I take it back. I like the bat. The bat is my friend. The bat understands me.
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Well, if you're not thinking it, how d'y'know what it is?
I don't think like you do.
I'm not being funny, maybe you should. What, you think Robin's gonna need us when he's a lord again? Eh? It's all right for them, Much with his lodge. What are we gonna have?
This should go to the poor.
That's us now! Look, we were outlaws, right? We had a job. We got nothing now. We are the poor. You know what this is?
Now, does she want an egg or bacon? She can't have both, I don't care who she is.
Pray to your God...and to mine. She is going to die.
Die? What do you mean, die?
Her face. I've seen that look a thousand times.
I need clean instruments. Knives. :[Much uses the ladle to throw the egg away] And crush this [She hands him berries] into a fine paste. Now.
My father treated the wounded on the battlefield. He said never lie to a wounded man.
Or was it never lie to a dying man?
[She leaves]
So? Never lie to a dying man.
You are not going to die and I have never lied to you.
Oh, come on. We have never once spoken the truth to each other.
This is not the time to argue.
Do not tell me when it is time to argue!
[Robin laughs]
Well, I do not think there can be much wrong with you!
I'm serious. We have never once spoken the truth to each other. For instance, I say you are a fool when I mean you are a hero. I criticise your actions then mimic them myself as The Nightwatchman. I chastise Robin Hood...
I will not be shushed, these might be my last words!
No they will not be. They cannot be. Because we should be together! Marian, I should never have left you, I should never have gone to war. It was a mistake! And you were right, I wanted glory but believe me the battlefield is the last place you’ll find it.
You would always have regretted it if you hadn't gone.
But not as much as I regret going. Not as much as I regret losing you. Marian, I should not have gone.
[Djaq arrives and interrupts]
I love you, you love me, we all love each other. Drink the wine.
Right, here is the paste, and er, the instruments are coming and er, Djaq is er, Djaq is coming. I'm sure, I'm sure all...
"I am sure, I am sure"? I am sure is reassuring, "I am sure, I am sure" is not.
I am sure. It's just, Djaq is very, er, Djaq is very...
[He starts to leave, but quickly spins around and hands Robin a flask of wine]
[He leaves]
[Marian laughs]
What could Djaq have told him? This is not good, is it?
[pressing on Marian's wound] I'm just pressing, right?
Yes. There's not much else we can do. The other physician has the instruments.
Should I be able to feel a heartbeat?
[Much looks at Djaq, in worry. Djaq runs over]
[Djaq opens Marian's eyes and thinks of what to do. She starts pounding on Marian's chest. Much stops her]
What are you doing?! What are you doing?! You'll hurt her!
Trust me, Much. Where she is, she cannot feel a thing.
[She continues pounding]
[Much shakes his head]
No. Oh, come on, come on, Marian.
[Djaq continues pounding]
[Djaq continues pounding]
[Much nods and laughs]
[Djaq laughs]
[Much throws his arms up]
[Little John throws his arms up]
Well, how did you do that?
Put your finger back in. Now!
PPitts
This charade is over. [he smiles and walks away but stops next to Robin] Your friend is dead.
[He carries on walking]
[He is hit in the stomach by Little John near the entrance of the cave]
[Robin runs to Marian; Djaq looks at Robin]
[Djaq walks up to Robin, looks at him with tears in her eyes and walks away; Robin walks over to Marian's body]
Marian. Marian! Marian. I love you. I should have said. Why did I not say? I love you. Marian. I love you. Marian.
[He kisses her then cries over her body]
[The Sheriff's voice is heard]
Robin! Oh, Robin! Come out, come out, wherever you are!
[Robin slowly lifts his head in anger]
You're getting slack, my friend! Could it have been easier for me? Hmmm? If you'd led me by the hand to your little hidey-hole? A clue: no!
Allan. Where are Allan and Will?
[Much looks at John; John nods]
[aiming his bow at the Sheriff] STAND!
[The Sheriff looks around]
Uh, there are two of you.
How many do you think there could be of them?
A dozen or so at the most.
[The Sheriff chuckles]
... And how many of the outer circle?
