Robin Hood: The Movie (1991) - full transcript









Our story takes place in England

during the 12th century, A.D.

The county of Nottingham

was ruled by the evil Baron Alwine

and his greedy partner,

the Bishop Hereford.

Their soldiers plundered



and taxed the people

to the point of starvation,

but out of this misery,

there emerged a hero,

a boy who would fight back

at this injustice.

His name was

Robin Hood.



Destroy the castle!

Burn it to the ground!

Let this be a lesson

to all those who disobey me.

At last, the Huntington family



will be destroyed forever.

(evil laugh)

Quickly, girls, follow me!

(yelling)

Don't worry, Winifred, I'll get us out.

Come on!

(whining)

Will, Jenny, Winifred!

Where are you?

Oh, oh.

Will!

Can you hear me?



Remember all I have taught you, Robin.

Have courage.

Fear no one.



Father.



So now, Robin of Huntington,

there is no escape.

(groans)

(grunts)

You'll pay for that, Robin!

Ah!

(yelling)

Get out!

Run!



Nobody cuts me

and lives.



Our castle!

What are we gonna do?

Please don't cry, sister.

If you do, you'll make us all cry.

Oh, so sad.

Alwine, Baron Alwine gave the orders

to burn down our castle.

Why does he want to destroy our family?

One day, Alwine,

I'll get my revenge.





I'm frightened!



It's so scary here!

We must go on.

The Baron's men will be searching all over

the village for us by now!

There's nothing to be scared of.

This is Sherwood Forest.

But I am scared, and hungry!

(laughs)

You're always hungry, Winifred.

Now, don't worry.

We're all gonna be okay.

Jenny's right, come on!

Let's go.

(howling)

(meows)

So, you think there's nothing to be afraid of, huh?

-Well? -Huh?

Hm, well, I'm not afraid.

(howling)

Ooh.

(animal noises)



Will, can you hear anything?

No, but I've got a funny feeling

someone's watching us.

-Where? -What is it?

Shh, be quiet.

Nobody move, stay close!

Keep your eyes open.

(whimpering)



Ah!

Will, Will!

Come, get this thing off of me!

Help, it's horrible!

(giggling)

Hm?

Well, look at that!

Oh, it's cute!

(giggles)

Hey, look at this!

Flying squirrel.

You really had me worried there.

(laughing)

Hey!

This might be another one.

(snarls)

(screaming)

Run for it!

Jenny!

Do you think it's gonna chase us?

It already is!

Run!

Ah, wait for me!

(screaming)





(yelling)



-Will! -Winifred!

-Ah, ah! -Winifred!

Help!

Jenny, just keep your head up!

(yelling)





Another convoy of gold.



I better report this to the chief.





Huh?

Whoa!

(groans)

Will, wake up!

Wake up!

Jenny!

What happened?

Where are we?

Stand by for blast off!

-Whoa! -What was that?

I will now attempt the impossible!

(squawks)

And I shall prove that humans can fly

like birds in the sky!

Oh, my gosh!

I'm ready!

Matthew, Mark,

Luke, Paul, John.

(yells)

(gasping)

Whoa!

I've done it!

I've proved them all wrong!

(grunts)

Well, hey, are you okay?

Well, tell me, how far did I get?

Huh?

(laughs)

You look so funny!

How dare you make fun of me

when I saved your lives?

If our dear Lord hadn't seen to it that I saved you,

you'd all be doing some flying yourselves

with the angels in Heaven.

You mean you saved us from drowning?

With the Lord's help.

(chuckles)

My name's Tuck.

Oh.

There.

I'm a friar, you know.

I live here in Sherwood Forest.

You're the funniest friar that I've ever seen!

Friar Tuck, what happened

to the other little girl that was with us?

I only found you three and a squirrel.

Robin?

Thank you for saving us, Friar Tuck.

Where exactly did you find us?

Go down that slope and then straight ahead.

I will stay here and pray for the safe return

of your dear missing friend.

Good luck.

Be on your guard.

The forest can be a dangerous place.

Never struggle against the will of nature.

Learn to harness its power

and it will work for you.

You're a wise man, Friar Tuck.

God created nature before mankind.

If you treat the natural world

with respect and wisdom, Robin,

it will become your strongest friend and ally.

Mm-hmm.

I'll remember that.

Hm.

Huh?

-Thanks! -Bye, Friar Tuck!

Bye, Mr. Tuck!

That bow.

I recognize that bow.

It belongs to the Huntington family,

so that boy must be--

Halt there, stand and deliver!

-Hey! -What is this?

Move out the way!

I am Much the Bandit,

and I am the one who gives the orders

in Sherwood Forest!

Now, if you want to live,

hand over your treasures and go!

(laughing)

How can you be an outlaw?

You're just some skinny little kid!

If you want to rob us, go ahead!

(laughing)

(whistles)

(yelling)

My warriors will relieve you

of the gold, gentlemen.

Don't be shy!

Huh?

I'm getting out of here!

What's happening out here?

Why did they all run away?

Huh?

Such cowards.

Huh?

(screaming)

Huh?

Hey, what was that?

A scream!

-It's very close. -Mm-hmm.

(screaming)

Stop screaming!

If you don't stop that awful noise,

my giants will eat you up!

Don't let them hurt me!

(growls)

(gasps)

(sighs)

Oh, that's just great.

Now she's fainted.

Huh?

Wow.

This looks very valuable.

I'll keep it.

Hey, maybe there's more hidden somewhere.

Hey, what's going on?

Just take your thieving hands off of her!

Did you just kill that girl?

No, she just fainted, that's all.

Giant warriors,

destroy these interfering peasants!

Attack!

Oh, yeah?

Hm.

(chuckles)



Hm, hm, hm.

Ha!

Ow!

Ow!

(grumbling)

Is she falling?

Whoa!

(groaning)

-Ouch. -My head.

(whining)

(chuckles)

You'll pay for that.

Come on, en garde!

Wait!

(yells)



Hm?

What's going on?

Hm?

Hi there, boss.

Hey, you, are you the boss around here?

Yeah, that's right, I am,

and just who is it who wants to know?

(grunts)

My name's Big John!

Big John, eh?

Yeah,

you rich brats

deserve all you get.

(groans)

Cheats and liars!

(angry meowing)

(grunting)

Oh, you're hungry, are you?

Well, I'll get you a nice bowl of milk

if you promise to behave.

(laughing)

Look at Big John!

What a tough guy,

playing with a pussy cat!

-Huh? -I've got a new name for you!

Little John.

(laughing)

Little John, that's funn--ooh!

Now you've upset me!

I challenge you to a duel!





The rules are simple.

Whoever falls loses.

I agree, but if I win the girl goes free, okay?

Well, it sure ain't gonna beat me!

(yells)

Ah!

(grunting)



Robin, watch out!

(cheering)

You can do it, Robin!

Come on, come on!

Huh?

Stop fighting, do you hear?

It's Winifred!

It's my sister!

Are you okay?

Sure!

Oh, Winifred!

It's wonderful, you're alive, yippee!

-Oh! -Oh, Winifred.

We thought you'd drowned!

-Wee! -How did you survive the river?

It was that man over there.

He saved my life.

(grunts)

Ow!



Ah!

Much, we must save the camp!

Get the women and children to safety!

Quickly, now!

Aye-aye, sir!



Baron Alwine's troops.

I knew they would come.

Why Baron Alwine?

Is he looking for you?

I've been forced to surrender myself to him.

If my family are to live,

I must obey the Baron's orders

and go to Nottingham.

Oh, Robin, that's awful.

My name is Marian,

and I am one of the Lancaster family.

Baron Alwine has blackmailed my parents

into giving me to him.

If I do not go,

he will destroy our castle

and burn our crops.



Columbus charge!

Huh?

(yelling)

Oh!

(grunting)

-Hey-yah! -Oh!

Hey, this is no time to be playing games!

I'm not!

Look over there!

It's our emergency defenses.

Oh, if I could pull this rope a bit harder,

I could put it into action!

You'll never do it.

Huh?

Wait!

I have an idea.





You did it!

That's amazing!

The logs are moving!

Huh?

(yells)

-Run! -Run for it!

(yelling)



You mean to tell me

that a handful of stinking outlaws

stole Lady Marian away from your soldiers?

Baron, your men were defeated by rabble?

That is incredible.

It's tragic you were not there yourself.

You would have beaten them single-handedly.

My Lords, do not concern yourself

with the outlaws in Sherwood Forest.

I shall deal with them personally.

I would consider it an honor.

What?

Tell me, Gilbert, why do you,

my bravest captain, concern yourself

with these outlaw scum, hm?

I have a score that I must settle

with one of them,

and I wish to kill him.

Oh!

He cut my face, and for that insult,

he will pay with his life.

(giggling)



This is as far as you must go, Robin.

I'll go alone now.

Huh?

What do you mean?

Baron Alwine wants you dead, Robin!

It will be dangerous for you to come

any further with me.

I'll be okay.

I can't leave you here, Marian.

I'll be all right, Robin.

My parent's castle's not far from here.

I don't want the Baron's men to catch you.



Well, yeah.

I mean, if you put it like that, Marian.

(laughs)

Thank you so much for saving my life, Robin.

Thank you too, you cute little fella!

I like you a lot.

(squeaks)

Now, what name can I give you?

Let me see.

You're cute

and furry.

I've got it!

Your sharp little teeth have just given me an idea!

I should call you Fang!

Fang?

Yeah, that's a good name!

From now on you're gonna be called Fang, okay?

(squeaking)

(laughing)

Listen, Marian.

I think that your parent's castle

is the first place Baron Alwine

will go looking for you.

Yes, you're probably right.

I don't want to go back to Nottingham Castle,

but I come from the Lancaster family.

They're very powerful.

They'll know how to protect me.

Huh?

I had no idea you came from such a respected family.

Don't worry about me, Robin.

I shall miss you.

I shall miss you too, Marian.

Hm.



Bye, Robin.

I hope we meet again!

Goodbye, goodbye, Marian!

Bye!



(squeaking)

Come on, Fang, let's get back to the others.

(squeaks)



I will be avenged!

Sherwood Forest cannot hide you forever,

Robin!

(echoes)

Huh?

I wish I still had my cross to protect me.

(mumbling)



Excuse me, Friar Tuck.

What exactly is it that you're making, huh?

You'd like to know?

Oh, yes, yes, please!

Come closer and I'll tell you!

It's a secret.

-Oh, no fair. -Come on, Tuck.

Hey, I'm back!

Robin, good to see you!

Hey, did you run into any bears

or wolves in the forest?

No, Winifred.

Robin, this strange man said if we wanted to,

we could stay here with him!

Huh?

What do you mean by a strange man?

Hm?

Appearances can be deceptive!

I've always lived on me own,

but I'd be delighted if you were all to come

and live here with me.

What do you say?

Well, what do you think, Robin?

No, we can't.

Thanks anyway.

-Huh? -But Robin--

Listen, Baron Alwine and his men

will come looking for us, and sooner or later,

they're bound to come looking here.

Then Friar Tuck will be arrested

for sheltering outlaws.

-Oh. -I understand.

Thank you once again, Friar.

We'll be on our way now

and look for shelter in the forest.

What will you do if you cannot find a safe place?

Don't worry, Friar Tuck.

We will.

Assuming you find a safe place,

can you build a shelter?

Of course, we'll use branches and leaves!

But what if a strong wind

blows your shelter over?

Uh, let's see--

Well, then we'd sleep outdoors!

Hm, hm.

You're a very smart boy, Robin.

I think your friends are in safe hands.

(chuckles)

You know Sherwood Forest contains

so many mysterious things

that have never been explained.

I could spend the rest of me life

investigating the myths and legends

of this wonderful place.

Ah.

Hm.



A hippogriff runs in the sky,

and from the stars of the universe

dew drops fall to the trees in Sherwood

and pixies come

and play there.

That's just kid's stuff, Friar!

You don't really believe in that stuff, do you?

Yes, Winifred, I really do believe.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, come on.

To believe or not to believe

in such wondrous things

must be your own decision,

my young friends.

I believe God has created

many invisible miracles,

and if we truly believe in them,

one day, we may see them!

(laughs)



(howling)



(growling)

Oh!

I must stand still.

(breathing heavily)

Oh!

Ah!

Ah, oh.

Have no fear, my lady.

They will not harm you.

(growling)





My lady!



I wonder who she is.

Why is she wandering alone

in the forest at this late hour?





Moon, why have you sent her to me?



I must know who she is.



What is it, Gilbert?

Marian's ceremonial dress has arrived

from Lancaster Castle, My Lord.

(laughs)

Excuse me.

Wait!

One moment, Gilbert.

I want to check the contents.



Oh, if Alwine sees what's inside the box,

the finger of suspicion will be pointed at me.

I must stop him opening it at all costs.



All right, let's see--

Wait, Baron, let me!

This is my goddaughter's dress

so I should look at it first!

(laughs)

-Wait, Bishop! -Hm?

It is considered a bad omen for the godfather

to see the dress before the ceremony.

He is right, Hereford.

But--

Mustn't tempt fate.

So, Gilbert,

have Lady Marian put the dress on

and bring her here immediately.

The Bishop would like to see her wearing it.

Ah?

Yes, My Lord.

Baron Alwine, I appreciate your consideration

of my desires, but I have a feeling

you're up to something!

Oh, Hereford, I am sure this will amuse you.

I am setting a trap, you see, and for a trap

you need a bait.

But what do you hope to catch?

In the castle, we have a problem with vermin.

Young rats interested in freeing the girl.

Yes, Baron, one must be strict with vermin!

You can show no mercy!

Bishop, there will be no mercy.

(laughing)

Am I going to have to live the rest of my life

here as Hereford's goddaughter?

There's surely no way I can escape this castle

and go back to the forest.



Where's that music coming from?

It can't be!

Yes!

It's the same tune

that Robin played to me

that day in the forest.



It was the most beautiful music

I'd ever heard.

I was so happy.

I just wanted to stay there forever.



Marian, I have something for you.

What do you want, Gilbert?

Please be strong.

The night air is cold.

You could become sick

and this castle is no place for the unwell.

How was the food I had specially prepared for you?

You haven't touched it.

I'll eat the same as Winifred.

Now, why have you come?

Your ceremonial gown has arrived from your family.

Ceremonial gown?

(gasps)

Not this!



This was--

This was my mother's silk wedding dress!

Oh!



What's that?

(gasps)

Shh, quiet.

Oh.

This is my father's knife.



Nobody must know that I've seen this knife, Marian.

Take it, keep it well hidden.



Hm?

Your parents sent this knife to you.

You must decide how and when

you need to use it.

But why, Gilbert?

Hereford wishes to see you in the ceremonial dress now.

Why does a knight like you do such a thing?

I'm no knight,

just one of Baron Alwine's servants.

But I can see you're different

to him and his kind!

I was, but now I am the same filthy breed as him.

Huh?

For now,

though not for long.

Hm.

Nobody must know we spoke of this matter.

Hereford is impatient,

and I suggest you dress quickly!



If she chooses to use the knife,

I hope she picks her moment well.

Now watch how a real man handles a rope!

Yah!

Hm.

(grunts)

Last one up's a sissy!



Mm-hmm.

Right, let's go!

Wait a second, will ya?

Hey, what are you two doing over there?

Give him a break, he's got a cramp.

Let him catch his breath before we move on!

A cramp, I'll give him a cramp!

Amateurs!

It's okay, Robin, we better keep moving.

Come on!

Follow me!

Stick near to the wall.

-Okay. -Okay.



(squawks)

Oh!

(groans)

Who's there?

Oh.

(gasping)



(meows)

Just a cat, come on, boys.

Phew.

(squawks)

There really is somebody there!

Time we weren't here!

After them!

This nonsense about bad omens,

how can you believe

all those old wives' tales?

I'm nearly 60 myself,

and I wouldn't have become Bishop

listening to such superstitious fancy.

Sixty years of what?

That's the question.

Devotion, humility, and charity

are all one needs to be Bishop,

and he has none of them.

Marian, my goddaughter-to-be,

from every angle one can appreciate

your obvious charms

and--haha--your wealth.

Now, let's have a little look at you.

Coochie, coochie, coo!

Gilbert, what's the matter with you?

This business is of absolutely no concern

to a knight of mine.

Keep your nose out of it.

Understand me?

Use the knife, Marian.

Baron, I must inform you that four young outlaws

have succeeded in entering the castle!

Huh?

Hurray!

-Oh. -Huh?

Robin doesn't give up.

Let me deal with 'em, sire.

Calm down, will you?

Those little fools won't succeed in their business

because I planted a trap for them, Gilbert,

and now we have just the right bait.

Finally, I have found an excellent use for you,

my dear, stubborn Marian.

I hope you don't mean to use my goddaughter

in your trap, it's unthinkable!

Hold your tongue, Bishop!

I'm in charge here.

Am I not?

Huh?

You, Marian, came to my castle

and offered yourself in exchange for Winifred,

all rather tiresome.

(grunting)

There he is, up there!

Whoa!

Oh.

He's up on the ramparts!

Let's go!

Hey, that looks like...

Marian!

-Robin! -Robin!

Come on, I think he's seen something!



Marian?



I'm coming!

Oh!

Yeah, you're comin', all right.

You're comin' with us to the dungeons!

Out of my way!

And now he wants us to get out his way!

(laughing)

(groans)

(grunting)

-Ouch! -Gotcha!

(grunting)

Your precious friend, Maid Marian,

is gonna be executed and you're next in line!

Who said she's gonna be executed?

Baron Alwine of Nottingham says.

That's who!

No way!

Huh?

-Oh! -Robin!

Hey, are you okay?

You came just in time!

-Let's go! -No!

The Baron's gonna execute Marian!

Huh?

We must hurry!

Hey, Robin!

I smell a fight!

(wind blowing)

Hold it!

Huh?

Get him!

-Wow! -Watch out!

No!

(yells)



-Where is she? -Over there!

Quickly!

Marian, it's okay, we're here.

(gasps)

Uh-oh.

It was a trap, Will!

We've got him trapped, Baron!

-Yeah! -We got him!

Welcome to Nottingham Castle.



Where is she?

Oh, don't worry, Robin.

Maid Marian is perfectly safe for now,

which is more than I can say for you.

Your precious Maid Marian

is with Bishop Hereford!

Louie.

Marian!

Robin!

She's alive!

(laughing)

Very touching, I'm sure,

but pointless, I assure you.

Guards, time for crossbow practice.

Take aim!



Jump!

(grunts)

(yelling)



I'll be back!

Ow!

(screams)



(laughing)

Is Robin still alive?

No one could survive that fall!

Oh, Robin!

(laughs)

Keep lookin', if he's alive, we'll find him.

Hey, what's that in the water?

It's just an old log.





Guess we missed him.

Oh, well.



And so, after a long and tiring swim,

Robin, Will, and Little John

had managed to escape from the Baron's guards,

all thanks to a little invention

that Much had come up with,

not that he would let them forget it.

It's simple, we do exactly what we did before!

Straight up the castle walls.

They won't expect it.

We'll be out before they know what's hit 'em.

The Baron's too smart for that.

He'll have doubled the guards around the castle,

especially after what happened yesterday.

You don't know that!

He might not expect us back so soon.

We've already seen them!

Oh.

We have to find a way to get past the guards.

So, my little caged bird

is up to something,

but what?

Farewell, Gilbert.

My concern for Maid Marian

weighs heavy on my heart.

I must keep an eye on her.



Oh, Robin.

(gasps)

Hey!

(cheering)

He's very good, that guy!

Probably the greatest alive.

(clapping and cheering)

Did you see that?

-Very good! -Very good!

Hey, well done!

You're my hero!

Yes!

Hm.

He's even got his own fan club.

Yeah.

Huh?

Robin looks like he's on another planet.

Leave it to me, I'll shake him out of it.

-Hey! -Ow!

What's the matter?

You ain't goin' weird on us, are you?

Um, no--I--I--I'm not.

Uh--uh--um--uh--

I know what it is.

It's that Marian, isn't it?

"Oh, Robin, my sweetheart!"

-Numb-head! -Say that again!

Oh, numb-head!

Hey, cut it out, you guys.

Oh, leave me alone!

-No! -Huh?

What's so loud?

Look over there!

-Huh? -Huh?

Hey, wait a minute!

They're Baron Alwine's soldiers!

What are they doing here?

Do you think they might be looking for us?

No, you're safe for now.

They're here looking for their brides.

What brides?

Tomorrow, Bishop Hereford,

minister of the Church of Nottingham,

becomes godfather to a young lady of noble blood.

We have to send four girls

from this village up to the castle

to become maids.

But where do the brides come into all this?

These girls know they will never be allowed

to return to the village,

never again set eyes on the men

they have to leave behind.

They have decided to marry

so that no matter how far away they are,

they will still be held together

by the sacred bond of marriage,

a bond that only God has the power to break.

(weeping)

Do not cry, this is a wedding day.

It should be a celebration.

Hereford must be stopped.

-Hey, Robin! -Huh?

We better make ourselves scarce!

Come on, before they see us!

Book it hard down that alley.

Let's go!

-Uh-huh! -Right.



We're here to accept your gift

of four village girls

who are to have the honor of becoming maids

to Bishop Hereford's new ward,

Marian of Lancaster,

so where are they?

Bring 'em forward!

My Marian, Bishop Hereford's goddaughter?

-"My Marian--" -Hey!

Keep it down, shrimp!

No, darling, no!

I won't let them take you away, I won't!

Break it up.

I must go, my darling, I must.

It's the only way to save the village.

No!

Goodbye, my love!

They're taking these women against their will,

just like they took Marian!

Hey, Robin, where are you going?

(yelling)

Come on!

(yells)

Let's do it!

Huh?

(grunting)

I'm coming, Robin, save some for me!

Come on, let's take these kids out!

(groaning)

Don't call me a kid!



(yells)

Back to the castle!

-Uh, yeah! -Come on!

Let's get out of here!

(yelling)

-Oh, darling! -Oh!

(laughing)

Let's go.

They'll be back with reinforcements now

that they know that we're here, Robin.

Hey, I just couldn't stand by, right?

You're no longer welcome here.

No longer welcome?

So that's all the thanks we get, huh?

We would have all been better off

if you'd never shown up in the first place!

Baron Alwine will now take it out on all of us.

Well, fight back!

You just don't understand.

Great, so we can't get into the castle

and the Baron knows where we're hiding out.

Well, I'm having a great day.

Anybody else, huh?

So, what are we gonna do now?

We can't stay here.

Hey, you guys!

I got it!

I got an idea!

-It's terrific! -What is it?



I know those outlaws are hiding here.

Tell me where they are!

They got away.

They heard you were coming

and they escaped.

Well, which way did they go?

To the river, sir.

Sergeant, your squad follow them.

You men search the village.

Lieutenant, commandeer that cart

to escort the hostages to the castle.

Yes, sir!

Old man, where are the village girls

I told you to find for me?

Here, sir.

They're ready.

Hm.



(giggling)



Cheer up, guys!

The soldiers like us village girls!

(laughing)

Village girls!

(crying)

Little John, remember, you must give me the bow

just as soon as I give you the word, okay?

Oh, don't worry, sweetheart,

and it's the last time I dress up

for you, or anyone!

(scream)

Ah-ha, I see you brought me

some fresh and pretty damsels.

So, that's Bishop Hereford.

You will wait on the guests in the main hall.

(chuckles)

Ah.

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.

Ah, a tall one!

Hey, girl, young woman!

-Who? -What?

-What? -What?

Uh, me?

Yes, you, wench!

Get yourself over here!

You could be just what I'm looking for.

Mm-hmm.

Coming!

I knew he'd give us away,

the big oaf!



Hmm.

Yes.

Mm, yes.

Hm.

What a strong girl.

You will be a hand maiden to my goddaughter!

Come along!

-No! -Wait--

Where do you think you're going?

You can work in the kitchen.

Oh, bye!

No!

Relax, he can look after himself.



Would you excuse me a moment, my lord?

What news of Huntington?

It seems he and his gang have fled, sire,

but I have men searching everywhere.

Hm.

I am certain they will make an attempt to sabotage

these celebrations.

Be ready for them.

Sire.

But Captain, none of my guests must suspect anything is wrong.

(grunts)

(humming)

More potatoes!

Get peelin'!

Thank you.

All clear.

We're un-guarded!

I'll get up to the top of the tower

like we agreed.

Good luck!

What are we gonna do about Little John?

He's got all the weapons!

We must find him.

He's with Marian.

I'll go and rescue him.

I can't wait to see this.

Right, then. I'll go to the dungeons.

I hope the big ox hasn't got himself killed.



(chuckles)

Ah.

I can see it now.

When I crown Marian with this jewel

and become her guardian, she will be mine.

All mine.

If this guy tries to kiss me, I'm gonna whop him!

You, girl! Make yourself useful.

Go and see if my goddaughter's ready yet.

Yes, sire.



(laughs)

As soon as we finish here, that cross will be mine,

and with it I will be able to discover

the secret hiding place

of the treasure of the Lancasters.



Oh!

Oh.

Our girl, she's our little girl.

There is nothing we can do about it now,

my dear.

We have given our word.

As Lancasters, we must keep our promise

to Baron Alwine.

We must wait for our revenge.

Oh.

(cries)

Come, come, Marian!

This is supposed to be a happy day!

Stop sniffling all over your new dress, wench!

Get a smile on, huh?

Oh, Robin.

Why did you have to die and leave me here?

Robin!

(yawns)

If a guard catches me wearing women's clothes,

I'll never live it down.

Now, come on, Much!

Blow up that tower!

So much for the fireworks!

Can I kiss you?

Huh?

Well, why not, huh?

Surely you know you set my heart on fire.

I feel such a burning love for you that any minute

I feel like I could explode in a ball of flame!

If ever that candle hits the floor, there's gonna be

a burst of flame like you never expected!

Sheesh!

Oh!

Please, somebody get me out here now!

Why won't you marry me?

Is there something wrong with me?

No, not with you.

Huh?

Who's there?

Oh, it's you again, Billy!

Well, you have to come with me.

Put your girlfriend down.

There are intruders in the castle.

We've got to find them. Some little brats.

Come on, I'll wait outside.

Don't worry, I'll be back before you can say "wedding ring."

(humming)

Missing you already!

Mm!

Missing you too, honey.

Phew.

Hm.

The candle!

I got to make sure the candle's all right!

Oh!

Oh, it's fine.

Uh--

Ah!

It went out!

Stupid candle.

Ooh, my wonderful plan gone up in smoke!



Hope I'm not too late.

And now it's time for the crowning.

Marian, your head.



Yes.

All that Lancaster treasure.

Diamonds, rubies, everything I could want.

With the crown I pronounce thee, Marian Lancaster,

goddaughter to our dear Bishop Hereford,

and may this union

make us all very--



If she is going to be my goddaughter,

we have to crown her!

This one's for you, Marian.



Huh?

Oh!



Robin, behind you!

Huh?

Gilbert.

Excuse my intrusion, Bishop.

Now, Robin, fight me like a man and die like one!

(yells)

Huh?

Oh, stop it!

Come, not even you can stop this fight.

They hate each other!

I swore that I would kill you, Huntington!

Yah!

And that's exactly what I'm going to do.

Coward!



What did you say?

What did you call me?

I called you a coward, Gilbert.

A blood-thirsty coward!

What?

No! Don't.

It was wrong of me to suppose you could have been

anything else.

Robin's friends have been captured by the Baron

and are being held hostage by him.

They'll die if he tries to fight you!

They are hostages?

Finish him off, Gilbert!

Now I see.

The whole thing was a setup for me.

(gasps)

Huh?

My lord Bishop, Baron Alwine,

I am a man of honor and I cannot take advantage

of this situation.

You'll do as I say!

You made me look stupid, but worse than that,

you tried to make me look like a coward and a cheat!

Excuse me.

You'll pay for that, Gilbert!



(glass shattering)

Huh?

Robin!

Huh?

Robin!

What's goin' on here, Little John?

Hey, don't worry.

I told the prisoners I'd let 'em out of their cells

as long as they promised to come and wreck the joint.

Well, that's a load off my skirts.

Hey!



Oh!

No!

Oh!

(yelling)

(groaning)



Robin!

Robin!

Marian!



How are you?

Okay.

You mongrel!

Glad to see you're still in charge, Baron.

Now both of you listen to me!

Marian and I will now return to live in Sherwood Forest.

To you, Robin of Huntington, I give my daughter.

Look after her well!

Just remember, Alwine.

Whenever you send your guards after me, I'll be ready for 'em!

(glass shattering)





Got it.

(giggling)



What are you doing now, Robin?

Well, I'm fixing this beam.

I have to make sure it's tied real tight.

Otherwise the wall could fall down.

Hey, I can give you a hand!

Okay?

No, Jenny!

You'll shake the ladder.

Come down, leave it to us men.



Not now, Jenny.

I have to prepare dinner.

Come on, Jenny, you're getting in everybody's way.

Can't you see we're all busy?

Oh, Winifred, everybody else has something to do.

Why can't I have a job?

Okay. Why don't you hang out the laundry?

Oh! Oh!

Oh, no, Fang!

Ooh! Oh!

Stop that! Can't you see I'm busy?

(squeaking)

Oh!

Fang! Cut it out.

Oh! Oh!

Oh, whoa!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Sorry, Robin.

Are you okay?

(whistles)

Ooh, what is that?

Well, it's a kind of a whistle, Jenny.

The noise is made by the air going through

these little holes.

Yeah! But what's it used for?

As a signal. A kind of warning.

It fits onto the end of an arrow and you fire it up into the air.

Will it work?

Well, I guess there's only one way to find out.

They used to fire these in the olden times

to let the other side know the battle was about to begin.



(whistles)

Yay, it works, it works!

Remember that sound: from now on,

that's the sound we'll be using

whenever there's danger around.

Then we'll know when to be extra careful.

It's a great idea! Yay!

Hurray for Robin!



(whistles)

Yes.

That'll do for now.

(groans)

Oh, would you look at that?

Sure is a big forest, and we've got to know

every inch of it if we're gonna stay one step ahead

of the Baron.



After refusing to kill Robin and setting the others free

to protect his code of honor, Gilbert was locked up

in the tower by Baron Alwine.

Although he had sworn to kill Robin, he was also a knight.

If they want war, I'll give them a real Armageddon.

I will cover that forest with hazards that will either

wipe them out or drive them mad with fear!

I will put in more traps and larger pits, snares

and trip wires, so that soon they'll be scared

even to go for a walk.

(laughs)



Hyah!

(grunting)

Come on!

(grunting)

That's Little John!

(grunting)

Try me again!

Come on, Marian!

That's it! Come on!

Come on, lift it!

(grunting)

(chuckles)

(panting)

Huh? Marian!

Hey, Much!

Have you all gone crazy?

Huh? Robin!

What's going on?

Well, it's not what you think, Robin.

Hey!

I'll handle this.

Marian asked us to help her.

She wants to learn how to fight with a sword,

so we're teaching her.

Right, men?

Marian, is this true?

Yes.

Of course, she had to pay us.

We don't work for free.

See this?

She gave us her dress.

Actually, I wanted that pretty little cross

she wears 'round her neck, but she wouldn't give it up.

Marian, why?

Marian, listen to me.

Ha! Listen to Robin.

I want you to leave the fighting to me and Will, okay?

You don't need to do this.

We'll protect you.

No, Robin!

I'm not training for self-defense.

I'm training for when I can get my revenge!

Marian, please give me the sword.

But we can't just give up!

We'll never give up, Marian.

I promise you.

Oh, what a machine!

(laughs)

Nearer, my God, to thee!

(laughs)

Whoa there!

Company dismount!



Ooh.

(grunts)

(yells)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh!!

-We're being attacked! -Where did he come from?

There he is! Over there!

-Get to him! Get to him! -He's a monk.

What are you doin' here?

Huh?

Just thought I'd drop in.

Explain yourself, crazy monk!

I was just up about 200 feet, you see--

Quiet! Stand up.

Stand aside.

(groans)

Huh? Huh?

What's the meaning of this?



Hm?

What's going on here?



Well?

Do forgive me, my lord, but you're Count John, aren't you?

The younger brother of King Richard?

God bless you, sire, and your brother.

Yes, I am Count John.

Stand back there, Monk!

How dare you address His Highness? You scum!

Now that King Richard is dead, His Royal Highness

will soon be king!

Oh, forgive me, Your Highness!

Ooh!

Please, don't hurt me, I'm a man of peace.

I meant no harm.

I'm just a--ooh.

Your Highness, what are you doing?

Did you see that?

I saw it.

-I don't believe what I saw. -What's going on?

Thank you.

It's nothing.

His Highness is forgetting himself.

The monk is just trash!

Shut up!

You know he's right, Your Highness.

I am not worthy of this.

No, Friar, a monarch must care for his people.

All his people.

The high and the low.

My subjects will be cared for.

You mustn't fear, Friar.

No one will harm you.

Farewell.

(grunts)

Escort, advance.

By the way, Fox, have you had any success

in finding my brother Richard?

No luck yet, Your Highness, but I am convinced

we shall find him somewhere in Nottingham.

I hope so, Fox, your sake.

I swear, Your Highness, we'll find him.

Giddy-up there! Go on!

Ha!

May God go with you.



Standing hard against the wind, a lone figure

searches the landscape and tries to remember.



Hey, chief.

Did you mean it when you said you had a plan?

Yes, of course I meant it.

Don't you believe your chief now, you little insect?

I just happen to have built up a secret supply of food!

That food belongs to all of us!

You mean you've been hiding our food for yourself,

greedy guts?

Don't you give me your cheek, you insect!

(yells)

Oh, don't hit me, chief!

I just want to have a full belly,

like yours!

Now just shut up and follow me!

Not long now.

Just through those trees.

In there!

In that cave you will find the most delicious grub

you'll ever swallow!

There's steak, but--

Wait for me!

Ooh!



Now let me in for--huh?

(yells)

Look at that!

My lovely grub all scoffed!

Oh, chief, what can it be?

Oh, no!

You think so?

(snoring)

How could one man eat all this?

(snoring)



(glass breaking)

Curses! You idiot!

You dare tell me you have not found him?

How much longer do I have to wait?

Forgive me, my lord, it's not easy.

I swear we are doing our best.

Silence!

Until the king is dead,

my position here is in jeopardy!

If you hadn't bungled things in the first place--

My lord, I think maybe you have said enough.

After all, the least said, the better it is,

don't you think, Your Royal Highness?

Hm?

How dare you lecture me, Alwine.

Huh?

Cat got your tongue?

Huh?

Nothing to say?

Hm?

I'm sorry, my lord.

(chuckles)

(laughs)

Consider this a warning.

I'll let it go this time, Alwine.

Sire.

(snoring)



(grunts)

Hey, you-- you almost hurt me.

Why am I all tied up?

Don't you play dumb with me!

That food you just stuffed yourself with

happens to belong to me!

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't know one man needed so much.

People might call you fatty.

Just watch your mouth!

I don't let anyone talk to me like that!

I'll have you know I'm the famous bandit,

Little John!

Hm!

Little John?

Yeah, Little John, right?

Something wrong with that?

No, I don't think so.

You don't think so, eh?

Boy, you're weird, but that doesn't make

any difference!

My men are all starving because you scoffed

all our food!

Hm.

Well, I'm very sorry.

Wait a minute.

I could make it all up to you if I were to join your gang.

Join the gang?

Yes, I will work hard until I've earned

your forgiveness.

Now, what do you say?

Hm.

Well, all right, but you'll have to obey me

and do anything I say!

Got that?

Yes, sir!

Anything you say, chief.

(grunts)

Ooh.

Shake on it, chief.

Like a man.



You saved us!

We owe you our lives!

I had to do something.

I couldn't leave you there to die.

So, what are you doing here in the forest then?

I don't know.

What?

I've completely lost my memory.

My past is a total mystery to me.

I don't remember anything.

That's really awful!

You don't remember anything?

No.

Not even my own name.

I wander from town to town trying to find out who I am.

Oh.

(clears throat)

(laughs)

Sherwood Forest?

I'm sure I've been here before, but when?

How?

Why can't I remember?

(sighs)

God, help me!

Who am I?

Where do I come from?

What's my name?

Can we help you?

Oh, Robin.

Let's walk, around the forest perhaps.

It may help you remember.

You might recognize something!

Anything at all.

Mm-hmm.

You're right, Robin. I might do.



So, Robin, Will, and Marian took the stranger to all

the special places they knew in the forest.

They were hoping that he would see something

that would jog his memory.



But try as they might,

the stranger didn't recognize anything.



Is anything familiar?

Do you recognize anything?

Anything at all?

Nothing.

Try. Think hard.

Isn't there anything?

No, Robin, I'm sorry.

With great respect, Count John, I am like you,

a man of great ambition.

I aim to improve my lot in this miserable life.

Enough, Baron! Your time is up.

Impressive.

Your speech has saved your life.

Alwine, can you be loyal to me?

On my life, I most solemnly swear allegiance to you,

Count John, future king of England!

And in return?

Oh, not that much.

I'd settle for Governor of Nottingham,

and I hope I can learn to win the respect and love

of the people just as you have.

Ah, excellent.

So be it then.

We'll meet later on to talk.

There are many plans for us to discuss.

As you wish.

Perfect.

They played right into my hands, the hopeless fools.

Now with John's power to aid me, nothing will stop me

from ruling this land!

(gasping)

Of course.

Now I remember!

I remember everything!

Good people of Nottingham, today is a very special day,

for we are indeed honored and privileged to be graced

by the presence of so great a man

as Count John!

Now, fine citizens, before the contest,

the noble count would like to speak.

Thank you, Baron Alwine.

I know that whilst my dear brother

is not with us, we are all sad.

Believe me, my good friends,

there is not a single day that goes by

when I do not think of him.

I want you to know I am doing everything in my power

to find him, but good people of Nottingham,

let us not dwell on this.

Today's competition is a great occasion.

In my brother's absence, Baron Alwine

has looked after you well.

He is a faithful servant to our king!

Alwine's been faithful to no one but himself.

Yeah, if the Count knew him like we knew him,

he wouldn't be sayin' that.

Alwine, I say you are a traitor!

What makes you so sure he will return?

We want King Richard.

Good people of Nottingham, I have always

treated you fairly!

I've only ever taken the lowest taxes possible!

If anyone is to blame for putting them higher,

it's that criminal, Robin Hood!

Guards! Get him!

Don't listen to him!

You've all been bullied for too long!

The time has come for all of us to rise up

and fight back!

Don't let me down, Little John!

Hey, look who's coming!



What do they want?

They look pretty angry, huh?



Alwine must be stopped.

Guards, keep them away from me!

If any of that rabble get close to me

you will all be flogged!

Huh?



Marian! What are you doing here?

We've come to help you!

Yeah, you can't always have all the fun, you know.

I'm gonna fight with you, Robin!

Fang and me are gonna help you too, Robin!

God is with you, great Robin Hood!

Me too!

We want Robin!

We want Robin!

Me too!

Thank you.



Robin Hood!

Shut them up!

Now, you scurvy dogs!

Take them into the darkest dungeon

with only bread and water!

Don't be afraid of them.

They're just peasant children.

Captain, do as I say or you'll swing

from the chapel bell rope!

Any soldier who disobeys me will be flogged

within an inch of his life!



Captain! Seize that child!

Huh?

Do you hear me, Captain?

She must be punished!

These peasants must realize who is in charge around here!

Now listen, you rabble!

Because of Robin Hood's puny threats,

this poor young girl

will be put to death as a lesson to you all!

Captain, draw your sword and get it over with!

I... I...uh--

Come on! Come on! Come on!

We haven't got all day, you know!

Huh?

Oh.

No, I won't!

(cheering)

Well done, Captain!

You're a good man after all!

(laughs)

Hey, well done, Captain!

Yeah! You see that?

I knew he would turn out all right!

Hurray for the Captain!

You're not allowed to disobey me!

I'm the Baron and it's just not fair!

Your Majesty, they're all traitors!

Just give me the word and I'll execute them all!

Hey, Alwine, your new king doesn't want to play anymore,

and thanks to his honesty, we can all see just what sort

of villain you really are!



Make way for His Royal Highness!

Just a minute.

That looks like Bear!

Baron Alwine?

Um, and who are you?

(horn blowing)



(gasping)

What's Bear doing here?

How's it going, Bear?

I didn't think we'd see you again.

I think the stories I've been hearing about you are true,

Baron Alwine.

You are evil and ruthless.



No!

(yells)



It's my brother!

Be quiet!

Your Majesty, this is indeed an honor.

Silence. I'll deal with you later.

I, King Richard, have returned to reclaim my throne.

(gasping)

What did he say?

He's King Richard!

That's what I thought!

All this time, Bear was really the King of England?

Oh, Gilbert!

I thought you were dead!

We meet again, Robin, but not to fight.

Gilbert!

That uniform!

You are one of the king's knights?

Yes, Robin.

A true knight can only find honor

in truth and justice.

Long live King Richard and his loyal subject,

Robin Hood!

Oh.

God bless the king!

Richard's back!

Robin! Robin!

King Richard the Lion Heart!

King Richard forever!

Long live King Richard!

Yeah!

We want Robin Hood!

We want Robin Hood!

We want Robin Hood!

We want Robin Hood!

Oh, Robin.

I'm so proud of you.

We want Robin Hood!

Long live the king!

Gilbert, this bloodless victory

would not have been possible

without those children.

This triumph belongs to them.

Yes.

Marian!

Robin!

Hurray!

Hurray for the King Richard!

King Richard the Lion Heart forever!

Robin Hood!

Well done, Robin Hood!

We love you, Robin!

Oh, John.

What do you want done with the traitors, sire?

You are all guilty of high treason

and should be executed, but instead I hereby condemn you

to a life of exile.

Take them away.

(gasps)

Thank you, brother.



(door slams)

All those connected with Baron Alwine

will also be punished.

A king must have loyal subjects to rule over.

Little John, you are guilty too, along with your men

you actively served the Baron.

Have you anything to say?

I'm sorry!

It won't happen again, Your Kingship.

Very well. I order you to obey all my commands

when I come to stay in Sherwood Forest for a day's fishing,

just like the good old days, eh?

What do you say?

(gasping)

I thought I was gonna be executed all over again!

(laughing)

Come on then.

We mustn't keep the fish waiting.

So, you want to go right now then, Your Highness?

Yes, Gilbert.

I love that forest.

It's been my home.

I understand, sire.

And Gilbert?

Sire?

I have a favor to ask you, concerning Robin Hood.

Yes, sire.

Isn't this peaceful?

I wish it was tea time.

I knew you'd be hungry so I baked us a special pie!

Here, have a taste!

Hey, that looks good! Where's yours?

I might have guessed one wouldn't be enough for you.

Great! Let's eat!

Mm! Lovely.

Ooh, yeah!

Mm.

Well, look at that.

Well, love is blind.

Eh, I'll take that as a compliment, Bear.

I mean, Your Majesty.

Ha-ha! Winifred is blushing!

Oh, stop it, Jenny!

You're too young to understand!

My sister, in love with Little John?

Huh?

No, no, no!

Winifred, I forbid you to fall in love

with Little John!

I'll find the right man for you.

But Will, it's too late.

Didn't you see the pie she baked for me?

I couldn't refuse!

How would you like me as your brother-in-law?

No, no! Never, John! No!

Little John, my brother? Never!

Hey, where do you think Robin and Gilbert have got to,

King Richard?

Hm?

I shouldn't worry your head about them.



I'm glad everything turned out this way, Robin.

Me too, Gilbert.

I'm so proud of you, Gilbert, for becoming

one of the king's knights.

Oh, Marian.

You'll never know how much I loved you,

but you belong with Robin.

We fought right here in this place, you and I,

Robin, but I never thought that you and I would return

as friends.

Did you know that this was once my family's castle, Gilbert?

Have you ever thought of rebuilding your castle, Robin?

What?

I have a message from King Richard.

He would like you to consider becoming

one of his royal knights in his personal guard.

What? Me, a knight?

Oh, Robin!

Alwine wronged you greatly, Robin,

but now you can put things to rights

and rebuild your life with honor as one of the king's men.

Huntington Castle.

It's been my dream, Gilbert!

To rebuild it.

I'll do it!

Oh, but if I serve the king, then I won't be able

to live in Sherwood Forest.

Huh?

That's right, Robin.

It is a difficult decision to make.

Think about it carefully, but don't take too long.

The King will be leaving Nottingham at dawn tomorrow.



Choose well, Robin.

Your future and Marian's happiness depend on it.



Robin stayed awake all night trying to decide

between fame and wealth or his life in Sherwood.

It was just before dawn and he was no nearer

to his decision.

Robin!

Marian.

You still haven't made your mind up, have you?



I know it's hard, Robin, but I truly think

you should follow the king.

You must think of your future and--

and Huntington Castle!

Marian, I--

Sherwood will always be here, Robin.

Will, Little John, and the rest of us

will still be here too.

Alwine is exiled.

There is no danger!

But Marian, I know that, but I--

Robin, look.

Look how bright the stars are.

Trust in your fate and the stars, Robin.

Your star shines there, too.

Thanks, Marian, for everything!



Hurry it up there!

We must reach London by the morrow!

Yes, sir!



Tell me, Gilbert, uh, any sign of Robin yet?

No, sire.

I see.

That's a real pity.

Halt! Who goes there?

Look! Over there, majesty!

Robin!

I'm so glad you decided to come.



Now then--

Yes, Your Majesty?

Robin of Huntington, my true and loyal friend,

I would like you by my side as knight and counselor.



What?

You actually encouraged him to go off and follow the king?

Yes.

Huh?

Are you crazy?

Why did you want to go and do that for?

Calm down, Little John.

Marian was only doing what was best for Robin.

Little John, Friar Tuck is right.

Robin had to go.

You're all mad!

The lot of you! Don't you see?

If Robin goes, we may never see him again!

But he is a nobleman!

Just think of all the money he'll be worth, huh?

Outlaws, attack!

Huh!

(yelling)

-It's Little John. -Yes!

King Richard, it is I, Little John, John the Great,

greatest outlaw in Sherwood, at your service!

And I am Much!

Marian Lancaster.

And my name's Will.

And my name's Winifred.

This is Fang!

(squeaks)

What a formal greeting!

King Richard, we've come to take our friend

back to Sherwood!

Hand over Robin Hood now, or else!

(laughing)

Huh?

You won't find Robin here with us, Little John.

Huh?

Your friend has told me that he intends to stay

in Sherwood 'til the end of his days.

Huh?

Ah!

Hurray!

Go, Robin!

Robin Hood!

(laughs)

Oh!

(horn blowing)

-What's that? -The horn is a gift.

I entrusted him with the protection

of this beautiful forest of Sherwood.

Oh, that's nice.

I go through all this trouble to rescue him

and he's playing his stupid horn!

(groans)

Hey, Muchie! What do you say?

Should we go and teach that Robin Hood a lesson?

Great idea, boss!

Then what are we waiting for?

Marian, I wish you every happiness.

Hm.

Good luck, Marian, and remember,

if Robin doesn't treat you properly, you just come down

to the palace and ask for Richard.

Understand?

Yes. Of course.

I won't forget.

Thank you, King Richard.

Good-bye, my dear.



Ah, Gilbert.

You know, Robin reminds me so much of myself

when I was younger.

Yes. They're so young and pure at heart.

I pray they will always remain that way.

(cheering)

Robin! Robin!

I almost wish I could go with them.

Your Majesty,

your heart will always be with them.



The happy band of outlaws raced off to find Robin.

Little John and Much, inseparable friends,

Will and his sister Winifred, Jenny and Fang, and Marian,

whose love and friendship had never faltered.

Robin's hunting horn sounded loud and strong,

echoing through the forest, almost seeming

to summon them all, and something else!

The mystical white stag came bounding through the trees!

Robin ran shouting the news as fast as he could!

The stag had returned at last to Sherwood Forest.

Hey, look! The stag!

Whoa!

(grunting)

Whoa!



No one had noticed Jenny fall as they had given chase

to the beautiful stag, who, it was said,

could grant wishes if caught.

Shh.

Look!

Huh?

Hi!

Everyone was so happy.

The evil cloud of Baron Alwine had lifted,

and peace and harmony had returned to Nottingham,

and Friar Tuck, he was watching

the merriment from high above on the cliff.

Well now, Gurty, would you look at that?

I knew Robin was the one to save the forest

and bring us peace.

What do you say?

(squawks)

Dear God, please bless all of us who live

in this beautiful Sherwood Forest

and may we continue to have peace,

but I don't know about you but I'd like a bit of peace

and quiet now.

Amen.

What do you say, Gurty?

I've had enough adventures to last awhile, don't you think?
