Following the events of the [[Will You Tolerate This?|previous episode]], Robin, Much and Allan (but not Will) have been captured and tied to trees in [[Sherwood Forest]], forced to take off their outer garments whilst [[Little John]] and his fellow [[outlaw]]s Roy, Forrest and Hanton rummage through their prisoners' belongings.


After Little John and his men leave, Will frees the others and Robin declares that they will take revenge. They follow Little John and his followers, then tie them up and retrieve their belongings. While Robin scorns them for how they treat their fellow men, robbing them when they should be trying to help overthrow the Sheriff, Little John's reinforcements arrive to tie up Robin and company once more. Little John is told of the reward on Robin's head and knocks him out and carries him to Locksley.

However, Little John's wife Alice is next to face the Sheriff's wrath. Little John is determined to save her by handing over Robin, but Robin convinces John to free him instead. Robin advances and shoots the shears in two with incredible accuracy, but is then forced to surrender. As Robin is hauled off to [[Nottingham Castle]], both gangs believe him to be as good as dead, apart from Much. Robin is interrogated by the Sheriff, who calls him a coward for not taking the opportunity to kill him.

As Robin is hauled off to [[Nottingham Castle]], both gangs believe him to be as good as dead, apart from Much. Robin is interrogated by the Sheriff, who calls him a coward for not taking the opportunity to kill him.


Much heads after Robin to save him, asking Marian and her father for help: Marian's father will speak for him in court, but they can't do anything else. After Much leaves, Marian receives a visit from Sir Guy of Gisborne, now Lord of Locksley, who states that as Robin is an outlaw he is to be treated as a prisoner of war and will not receive a trial. Meanwhile, Little John sees his son again (though he is unaware that it's his father), and hears his wife sing him a [[lullaby]] to sleep. Little John then orders both gangs to rescue Robin. Much comes first to Nottingham Castle, though due to a stray dog he is forced to sleep on a ladder until the rest of both gangs arrive.
