[To Marian after catching her trying to kill him, he ducks and pins her against the War Room map, with Allan's sword] Mistake, missy. Big mistake.
All S1
S1 E15Unfinished Business
You missed all the fun, Gisborne. [indicating Marian] Your leper friend tried to kill me.
[to Allan] Did you know about this?
I didn't know anything.
Why would he know anything about this?
She knocked him out and took his sword.
What?
Well, I wasn't expecting it, was I? Or it wouldn't have happened. Yeah, she's good. But I'm better, though.
[Marian winces, knowing Allan has made a mistake. The Sheriff approaches Allan, who realises his mistake]
"She's good, but I'm better." That means you knew she was capable of this. [to Gisborne] You knew, too, didn’t you?
My lord, please, I can explain.
[angrily] Well, you better had explain! Because she just made an attempt on my life!
[hesitantly] I recently discovered that Marian... was the Nightwatchman.
[Deadly silence]
... What?! ... AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?!?!
I believed Marian's days as the Nightwatchman were over! I believed I had dealt with it--
BY TRICKING ME?!?! BY FAKING HER ESCAPE?!?! Who was it who ran away?
[Gisborne turns away; the Sheriff looks at Allan]
Look, I was just following orders, all right?
Yeah, I gave the orders.
WHY?!?!
Because I thought Marian’s charitable instincts were misguided. I did not think they merited hanging!
[sarcastic] Oh, how very noble of you, dear boy! Although I can't help thinking that maybe you wanted a little something in return! Huh?! A display of gratitude?! [pats Marian on the shoulder] The Nightwatchman! I'm impressed!
Get off me.
GUARDS!!! [guards enter] PACK A TRUNK FOR LADY MARIAN!!! [the Guards leave] She's coming with us!
To the Holy Land?
Oh yes.
[Marian looks up]
[Whispering] Oh. Oh, look. The look. Hmm? So eloquent. [imitating Marian] "Oh, Guy! What's going to happen?" Well we just don't know, do we, missy?
So they're just going to wait?
Until we come out.
And then kill us. Not even a conversation.
I have a proposal. If they won't come to us, we'll go to them.
When?
First light.
There's too many of them.
We'll die.
It's suicide.
[Robin nods. Much sighs and paces]
It's a good day to die!
Will you shut up! Why does he always say that?! I don't even know what it means!
We'll almost certainly die. But at least we'll die fighting.
Yeah, I'm in.
[Djaq who was looking at Will, looks at Robin]
Me too.
Yes.
[Robin looks at Much]
[Pause]
And me.
[Robin slighty nods]
Good. Good.
So this is a Kalila and Dimna night.
What?
You don't have Kalila and Dimna night?
Surprisingly not.
A Kalila and Dimna night you remember for your whole life. You must only speak the truth. You must ask all your questions, share all your dreams.
So it's just talking?
Yes. But it's real talking. And if you're too boring, someone shouts Kalila and you lose your turn. You start.
Oh, no.
Just talk. You like talking.
I know I do...but, well, not like this.
Fine. I'll start.
Robin Hood and Marian. [Pause] They're still... aren't they?
Look, even if they were, he's dead now.
That's not an answer.
So I admire you. All of you. You are good men. Brave... generous... kind... decent men. And I love you. All of you. And I am proud to be amongst you.
Is this what this is, just everyone saying that they love each other?
[Holding her hand up. Laughing] Wait. And you're filthy, and you really stink. [Everyone laughs] and you have no souls!
JJohn
We live in the forest.
I have to be honest!
[Will smiles and looks down]
[Pause]
I have to be honest. And if I am being honest I have to say that... I do not love all of you in the same way.
It's me, isn't? You love everyone else but you don't love me. Brilliant.
[Djaq looks at Will as she talks]
There is one I do love more than the others, [Will looks up at her] The way a bird would fly... two thousand miles through storms [Little John and Much look over to Will] just to be with the one he loves. That is the love I feel. And I am a [Emotionally] fool because it is only now when we're about to die [looks up at Will] that I have the courage to admit it, even to myself. I'm sorry. I should have said earlier.
[Whispering to Little John] Will! I knew it!
[Robin looks at Will then at Djaq]
You, Will Scarlett are strong and true, and you fight for what you believe in [Will smiles and looks down, tears in his eyes] and that's why I love you.
[looking up at her again] And I love you!
[Djaq laughs]
I love the way you say what you mean. I love your silly voice.
Silly voice!?
[Will laughs]
That's it, I take it back, all of it. [Robin smiles] I hate you.
And I love the way you fight. Like a man. Ferocious. And the way you'll always, always be a woman.
Ka-lim-na. Boring.
[Staring in disbelief at Will] Kalila.
Whatever.
[To Djaq] Look, I'm not doing this.
Fine.
Good. Because I don't hate myself and I'm not in love with anyone else. So...
Fine.
Fine. Well there's nothing to say, then.
[Much paces. He notices Robin smiling]
What?
What?
You were smiling.
I was smiling because usually it's a struggle to shut you up.
[Much paces]
You think I talk to much. Well, I know that's what you think. Much talks too much. And eats too much. Worries too much. Well, it's easy for you to say, because if I don't do it, who will? It's alright for you, because you can just breeze through life and be everyone's hero, and not have to worry about the simple things like the fire or the food or the hole in your cape or your [He puts his arms out] birthday! 'Cause good old... dependable, old Much, he'll take care of that. And I tell you something. You take me for granted.
[Robin sniggers]
And you're sniggering at me, now.
Much, I was just...
[Shouting] You shouldn't!
[He walks away from Robin]
And I'm angry!
[Djaq looks at Much, saddened. Will looks at Much, saddened]
[Much turns around]
And just because I love you doesn't mean I can't hate you too. And I hate you. Because in the Holy Land, [He emphasises the following words] there was two of us, and we were a [Shouting] team! And the things we went through and the horrors we saw... Went through them together! And when we came home, we were like brothers. Brothers in arms. And where's that now? Hey?! It's gone! That's where! [Emotionally] You never talk! You just don't. And you made me a free man, and we're meant to be equals. [Much shakes his head] We're not equals. The only thing that's changed is that you still treat me like a servant and you don't treat me like your friend.
[Quietly] That's not true.
[Little John looks at Robin]
[Quietly. To Little John] Is it true?
[Little John looks at Robin]
[Much, Djaq and Will look at Robin]
[Much nods and Robin sighs]
Oh, Kalila.
[Allan opens the stable door]
[Whispering] Allan.
[Allan walks over to her to try and free her]
[Whispering] Thank you.
[Whispering] I can't kill the King.
[Whispering] Go. Quickly.
[Whispering] What about you, though? You've crossed the Sheriff now.
[Whispering] Look, I'll be fine. Go! Save Robin.
[Footsteps and clattering is heard. Allan stands up and unsheathes his sword]
[Whispering] Go.
[Much and Robin push the cart past the barn door, to the corner and Little John removes the beam from between the barn door handles]
What do you think, John? A good day?
Oh, yes. A good day.
Morning. Allan A Dale. Gisborne's man. I'm looking for Ellingham.
That's me.
[Allan smiles]
The Sheriff sent me down on an errand. He wants me to take the outlaws back to the castle. Alright?
Oh, no. The Sheriff says they're to stay in there til they rot, or til they come out to be shot.
Yeah? Well he's changed his mind.
Why?
Turns out they might have some information he needs.
[He looks over to the barn]
I think it's probably... you know, Black Knights stuff.
[Pause]
You'll be paid in full, obviously.
[Pause]
Aye.
[He gestures with his head for Allan to go to the barn.
[Cut to inside the barn. The gang are gathered near the door. Robin looks at Much and Little John, then Much again. Djaq unsheathes her sword and looks at Will]
Godspeed til we meet again.
See you in heaven, my friends.
[Djaq nods and then looks at Will]
Are you ready?
[Little John and Much nod]
One... two...
Allan.
What?
Allan A Dale.
[Will and Djaq look through the gaps in the barn and see Allan walking up to the barn]
[Allan knocks on the door]
Open up! I'm here on behalf of the Sheriff!
[Gestures to let Allan in] Let him in.
Kill him.
[Quietly] John, calm down.
[Djaq opens the door]
Oh, thank God.
[Much pulls him in and keeps a hold of him]
[Shouting] What do you want?! What do you want?!
[Shouting] Listen! We haven't got time to talk now, alright. I've spun 'em a yarn, but we've got to get out of here before they're onto...
We? [Shouting] We?!
I'm with you. Trust me.
[He turns and looks at Robin. Robin looks at Allan, then look at Much and blinks in an agreeing fashion. Much lets Allan go]
I've been an idiot. I'm sorry. But right now, we've got work to do. The Sheriff and Gisborne are going to the Holy Land.
The Holy Land?
They're on a boat from Portsmouth... They're going to kill the King.
[Robin winces. Djaq and Will look at him in shock and then so do Much and Little John]
Right. We need to get out of here. Now.
[The gang are tied up, with Allan leading them out of the barn. He opens the door. Ellingham is talking to the messenger]
[He puts his hand up] It's alright. It's alright. They're coming quietly. [He puts his hand up] Show's over.
[He leads them out]
[Ellingham walks up to Allan]
Er, one thing actually. I've got to get this rabble back to the castle, somehow.
Sure. The Sheriff wants to talk to them back at the castle.
Yeah.
Well that's strange that. 'Cause [He gestures to the messenger] a little birdie told me that the Sheriff left the castle yesterday.
You're joking. Did he?
Nice try. Get them!
[The gang fight with the mercenaries]
[On horseback, the gang have ridden to the forest and have stopped]
To the camp?
There's no time. Look, there's something I haven't told you.
What?
The Sheriff and Gisborne have got Marian.
WHAT?!
She wanted to save the King. She couldn't find you, so she tried to kill the Sheriff and got caught.
[Robin turns away. Much quickly looks at Allan. Djaq looks worriedly at Robin]
Allan's right. We haven't got time. We're going to the coast. Now!
[Allan clicks his tongue for the horse to move and he gallops off followed by Much and the rest of the gang. Robin stays where he is]
I'm coming, my love. I'm coming.
[He gallops off]
You... are going to visit King Richard.
[The Sheriff hands Nasir an item wrapped in cloth]
You are Saladin's new messenger.
[Nasir opens the cloth and the item is Saladin's royal seal]
This is Salah ad-Din's royal seal. Where did you get it?
Salah ad-Din's old messenger.
But there is also a password.
Yes, that was difficult to get. It was like pulling teeth. [To Karim] It was pulling teeth.
KKarim
And when we get there... I kill him?
No, no, no. You will not get to within a thousand yards of the King's tent. You will lure him out.
How?
By telling him what he wants to hear. Peace.
[Nasir smiles]
Nothing can stop us now.
[Cut to the coastline of Acre - the gang are there]
Right lads... work to do. Save Marian. Save the King... Save England.
[Gisborne is walking back from Marian's "cell"]
[Whispering to Nasir] He is a Black Knight. I would trust him with my life. Ah, here he comes.
[Gisborne enters the room]
Well.... How is our leper friend?
Whingeing, as usual.
