Robin Hood · Season 1
Thank you. I do not know how to thank you.
We'll think of something. [He winks at her] Come on! [He starts walking. Marian smiles and starts to walk but then falls to her knees]
[quietly] Robin.
[Robin turns around; Marian grunts and grimaces in pain]
Marian?
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
No.
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?
What?
Severance pay.
What is it girls eat?
Special girls food.
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.
W-W-What do we do?
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.
Now, right, er, 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?
He said that too.
[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]
What?
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...
Shh, shh, shh.
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.
Robin...
I...
[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...
Djaq is very what?!
I'll shut up.
Good idea.
I'll go.
[He starts to leave, but quickly spins around and hands Robin a flask of wine]
Drink this. All of it.
[He leaves]
[Marian laughs]
Much.
He means well.
What could Djaq have told him? This is not good, is it?
Maybe not so good.
[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?
Yes.
[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]
Please!
[Djaq continues pounding]
[Much nods and laughs]
Yes! Yes!
[Djaq laughs]
Allah be praised!
[Much throws his arms up]
ALLAH BE PRAISED!
[Little John throws his arms up]
ALLAH BE PRAISED!
Well, how did you do that?
Put your finger back in. Now!
You've been trained?
A little.
Good. Good. Then you've probably saved her life.
She has saved her life.
This charade is over. [he smiles and walks away but stops next to Robin] Your friend is dead.
[He carries on walking]
Dead?
Dead.
[He is hit in the stomach by Little John near the entrance of the cave]
[Robin runs to Marian; Djaq looks at Robin]
Robin... I'm sorry.
[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]
Now!
[aiming his bow at the Sheriff] STAND!
Oh.
Stand or we shoot.
[The Sheriff looks around]
Uh, there are two of you.
Last warning!
How many do you think there could be of them?
A dozen or so at the most.
[The Sheriff chuckles]
Of the inner circle.
... And how many of the outer circle?
I don't know.
Wait! Why are they not running? Why are they not running? Hood must be in there!
John... now what?
Bored now. Kill them!
John, I think we're gonna die.
A good day. [paints mud on his face like warpaint]
What?
A good day to die!
What?
It's a saying.
I hate sayings!
Gisborne where is my tooth?
[A guard, fatally struck by an arrow, falls right in front of the Sheriff]
What is this? Hood does not kill!
[After Robin has unsheathed his sword, ready to charge, Much unsheathes his sword]
[to Little John ] It's a good day!
[Robin, Little John, Much, and Djaq, screaming, charge at the guards]
Come on, then!
What is this? Is this suicide?
THOSE BLITHERING IDIOTS COST ME MY TOOTH!!!
Where were you two?
I can explain. There was this woman, a mother. She was giving birth to this newborn babe, right.
We were going to take the haul. Gisborne's money. We were going to take it to Scarborough.
Yeah. What can I say?
Sorry. Really.
Yeah, but we're back now. Saved your bacon actually.
[Little John and Much are shocked. Everyone looks sombre]
What? We said sorry.
Marian. Gisborne stabbed her last night and she's-
She's dead. Marian's dead.
[He walks back to the cave]
[In the cave]
We need to bury her.
We must get her to Knighton Hall...to her father. John...John, I need you to...Djaq, prepare her body. Will...I need you to make...I need you to make a coffin.
Shh! In good time. First...we say goodbye.
[tears roll down his cheeks] She was a good woman. Kind and considerate.
[steps forward] "Good"? Oh, she was... Yeah, she was...
[steps forward] She was alright. Yeah.
Her...we liked.
Her we loved. Her I loved. I loved her and I never told her.
She knew. We all knew.
[Allan notices that Marian is breathing and walks up to take a look]
I'm not being funny, right, she's breathing.
