"We Are Robin Hood!" is the thirteenth episode of Season 2 of Robin Hood and the 26th episode of the series as a whole.

Plot[]

The Black Knights plan to kill the King in the Holy Land. Learning that plot from Allan, Robin and his gang follow the Sheriff and Gisborne to the Holy Land. Under the Sheriff's orders, a Black Knight named Nasir lies to King Richard that Robin will slit his throat. Later, Robin and the gang arrive at the King's camp and deny this, but Richard doesn't believe them. The King ties up Robin and the outlaws, leaving them in the desert to die. One of the men pretending to be one of the King's soldiers, James, is working with the Sheriff, who adds a captured Lady Marian to their party. It is decided that this is a perfect time for Robin and Marian, tied back-to-back, to exchange marriage vows. Much cries, and just as they are nearing the end of the vows, Carter appears and rescues them. Seeing them alive and well after he said "Let the desert decide [whether you will die]", King Richard agrees to let Robin stand in for him in a supposed parlay with another Black Knight Karim. The King apologizes to Robin, and the group gallop into the town.

King Richard himself kills Karim, and Robin kills Nasir. The Sheriff shoots King Richard in the back and stabs Carter, wounding and killing, respectively. Much kills James, and Gisborne gets his sword out ready to finish the wounded Richard off. But Marian runs in the way, and tells Gisborne that she would rather die than marry him, and pronounces her love for Robin Hood. A shocked Guy runs his sword through her. Gisborne and the Sheriff gallop away, as Robin arrives, screaming Marian's name. They save the King.

While Marian lies in the sand, dying, King Richard gives Robin his ring, to give to Marian. They finish their vows, weeping. She pulls the sword out of her stomach, dying only seconds later, and he carries her to her grave. Will and Djaq (who has been reunited with her people) decide to remain in the Holy Land together; Robin, Much, Little John and Allan are given the King's blessing; and the remaining characters make their way back to England.

Trivia[]

  • Only appearance of King Richard.
  • Last appearance of Marian alive.
  • It is the last episode where we see Will and Djaq.
  • Marian and Robin get married.
  • According to the DVD commentary, the Season Two finale included a scene in which Djaq gives Allan the pigeon carrier that he is seen carrying in the final shot of the episode. This scene would have presumably given closure to the Will/Djaq/Allan Love Triangle, but as it stands, the audience doesn't even get to see these three characters say goodbye to each other.
