Robin Hood - Season 2, Episode #11The Sheriff has turned Locksley into a garrison, throwing its people out to make room for an army of vicious mercenaries. As Robin and the Outlaws formulate a plan to stop them, they are intercepted by three of the King's Guards, led by the fearsome Legrand who brings a vital message from King Richard. King Richard has sent coded information concealing plans to move his "thesaurus patriae" (Treasure of the Nation). Faced with a difficult decision, Robin decides that he must help the King, even if it means forsaking Locksley.
Marian, however, believes that Locksley must be protected, and the Nightwatchman goes into action, wreaking vengeance on the mercenaries. Gisborne and Allan predict trouble, and Marian finds herself trapped and unmasked by Gisborne. Her secret is out and Gisborne swears she will die as punishment for her treachery. Fearing her execution, Marian tries in vain to escape. In the end, she is spared by two unlikely saviors.Robin is cornered too - the Sheriff has already killed Legrand's contact, and the man Robin meets is the Sheriff's spy. Everyone is in for a surprise when King Richard's treasure is revealed. The thesaurus patriae - treasure of the nation - is none other than the Queen Mother herself. Taking a liking to "Big Bear" - Little John - the Queen proves to be a faithful and loyal servant to her son, King Richard, plotting with Robin and his gang to foil Prince John and the Sheriff's plans.
With only two more episodes before the end of season two, Robin Hood has proven to be a worthy show living up to its expections of danger, loyalty and love.

Ah, Robin Hood. Such a great series. Why isn't that on prime time instead of whacked out stuff like "Ghost Whisperer"?
Squee! I can't wait till you get to the end of this season. Can't wait till I can talk to you about it. It's so stressful not being able to talk about something because people aren't to the end yet.
I loved this episode. Love the whole Guy/Marion thing. Loved the look on his face when he realized she was the Nightwatchman. Loved when he faced the Sheriff in the courtyard.
