- The Sheriff hires the famous mercenary, the Black Knight, to challenge Robin Hood to a fight to the death. Robin accepts, despite being crippled by a recent wound. But the Sheriff has his own plans for the fight, no matter who wins.
- In a battle with Prince John's soldiers, the Merry Men are once again victorious. But their beloved leader has been wounded in his right arm. This becomes a problem when the Sheriff hires a notorious bounty hunter called The Black Knight. The knight challenges Robin to a duel with crossbows and the outlaw feels honor-bound to accept. Robin practices with his left hand, with less than stellar results. The Sheriff decides to hedge his bet by stationing his archers in a position to kill Robin if the mercenary knight should fail. Maid Marian threatens to leave Robin forever if he goes through with the fight, and the Merry Men try to get the crossbow away from Robin, but to no avail. Renaldo and Little John pay a midnight visit to the knight, revealing that their leader is wounded and bribing the knight to leave Sherwood. A man of honor, the Black Knight refuses to combat a wounded foe. But Hubert will not let his hired killer out of the contract. Very well, the knight will fight Robin Hood...and then finish off the Sheriff for free. Hubert instructs his archers to make sure neither Robin nor the Black Knight survive the duel. At last, Robin and his adversary square off. A tricky move enables Robiin to shoot the crossbow from the Black Knight's hand. The combatants are instantly set upon by the castle guards; they fight together to save themselves, with a little help from the Merry Men. The Black Knight, Lester of Chichester, parts as a friend.—whatsitsgalore
