Robin Hood (TV Series)

Something Worth Fighting For: Part 1 (2009)

Richard Armitage: Guy of Gisborne

Quotes 

• Guy of Gisborne : I'll take that.

  [Takes letter from Messenger] 

  Robin Hood : Tie him up, then!

  Tuck : [Taking letter from Gisborne and opening it]  It's from Isabella to Prince John. "My Prince, I understand the urgency of your request. Richard returns from the crusades within the month. Troops loyal to him await his return in Loughborough. We must be ready."

  Allan A Dale : Richard. King Richard?

  Kate : The King's coming home.

  Robin Hood : Read the rest.

  Tuck : "You asked for 300 men, food, and supplies. I will dispatch them at sunset to join with your northern forces in Doncaster."

  Robin Hood : So where's Isabella got 300 men from?

  Tuck : "England will soon be yours."

  Robin Hood : [to Messenger]  You give the Sheriff this message. England will never be a slave to Prince John, not while Robin Hood fights for King Richard!

• Robin Hood : We take the castle. We claim it under King Richard. We put Isabella under house arrest, we release the supplies, we release the men. And we hold that castle till King Richard returns.

  Much : We can't take a castle!

  Guy of Gisborne : We can if we go down the tunnel. When the old Sheriff returned from his failed mission in the holy lands, he became paranoid about repercussions. So he built himself an escape route. A tunnel. The diggers were silenced, I made sure of that. So no one else knows about the tunnel, especially not Isabella. It starts here, in a derelict churchyard outside the west gate, and it leads directly into the heart of the castle. I say we go down the tunnel, we seize Isabella, and we force her to dismiss her guards. If we take Isabella, we take the castle.

  Robin Hood : If we time the break-in to coincide with the supply train leaving, most of the guards will be busy with the convoy anyway.

  Kate : Count me out. I don't trust him!

  Little John : How do we know this isn't a trap?

  Guy of Gisborne : Because we want the same thing.

  Kate : Since when have you cared about our people?

  Guy of Gisborne : I don't. I just want Isabella. She betrayed me to Prince John and I intend to make her pay.

  Kate : Now THAT sounds more like the Gisborne we all know and loathe!

  Robin Hood : That's enough! We go through the tunnel! And that's my final word. Gisborne is one of us now. Our fate is his.
