Bring forward the trebuchet.
Load and make ready.
Unfurl the flag of truce.
This is my destiny, Blamire. The time is almost upon us.
Welcome to hell, Robin Hood.
What have we done? We doubted him, John.
He did this. He killed him! Much. Much!
You'll have time for that. There's soldiers at every wall.
Hundreds of them. The whole town's surrounded.
I put a dagger in him. I saw him die.
Well, that ghost has raised an a
Surprise. You thought I was dead
But you didn't check, did you?
Very nasty wound.
Gisborne, we will have our reckoning.
Right now I want my town back.
Never. You're finished, Vasey.
Your weapons are no match for the hatred these men have for yo
You tell your peasant army anybody who resists me will die.
Poor Allan.
He squealed like a stuck pig when he died.
Robin.And you'll pay for that.
You murdering swine.
Sticks and stones, Hood.
Give them a demonstration, Blami
Loose.
MEN SCREAM
You have until dawn.
Give me Gisborne,
release Isabella and then return Nottingham to myself and Prince John.
Otherwise, you and your noisy friends -
well, they'll be wiped off the face of the earth.
PEOPLE SCREAM AND CRY
What the hell was that?
The Arabs call it Byzantine fire
Doesn't work like you'd expect.
See?
Sticky.
Like oil. Repels water.
May I?
Phlegon thanatos. Literally "the burning death".
An alchemical mixture of flammable elements.
I've heard of it, but I've never seen it used till now
This will spread chaos across the town,
destroying everything and everyo in its way.
Put lookouts on every wall! Scour the town.
I want every able-bodied man armed and ready.
We hold Nottingham, for the king
We know the king's coming.
He has loyal troops waiting for at Loughborough.
If we can get word to them...
Robin, you could end this by giving me up to the Sheriff.
You could have done it back ther Why didn't you?
This is bigger than you, Gisborn
It always has been. We are fight for the future of England.
You have Isabella behind bars. That's what you wanted.
This isn't your fight unless you choose it to be.
While the Sheriff lives, this is all our fight.
I'm with you.
Get it done!
There's something we have to do first.
Honour the dead.
To Allan.
Our loyal friend.
Did you know the Sheriff was still alive?
I knew nothing of this.
Leave us.
You so want to kill me, don't yo
What's stopping you, Guy?
Not the fact that I'm a woman, surely.
You're so good at killing defenceless females.
There is too much blood on my ha already.
Isabella, you'll find no mercy amongst the outlaws now.
So when the time is right...
..you might want to use this.
Poison.
A single drop will act slowly and painfully.
For it to be quick, you must take it all.
This is your idea of mercy?
SCOFFS: Your last brotherly gest
For whose sake, Guy? Mine or you
I do this for our mother's sake.
Although there is precious little of her goodness left in either of us.
Guy.
What are you doing?
We have to get word to the King's troops at Loughbor
No, Kate. Robin... Wants to protect me.
But someone has to get help.
You saw what happened to Allan.
It's so we don't all end up like Allan that I'm doing this.
Hmm.
Pull the rope up after me.
And tell Robin...
..I'll be back with an army.
What's happened?
It's Kate.
Kate's taken it upon herself to go to Loughborough for the troop
She knows what she's doing. You taught her well.
The Sheriff is playing with us!
He knows he's got the advantage.
We have to hold this castle until the troops arrive.
Can we?
I mean, how long under bombardme from Byzantine fire?
He's got plenty of it. How do you know?
I sold it to him.
For a profit?
You sold it to the man who killed my friend?!
Well, now your trade has caught up with you!
And you're going to be bombarded by your own weapons.
I've done you a favour by sticking round here.
I saved your ungrateful lives!
Our lives wouldn't have needed s

So you think about what you got them into...
..before you ever try and judge
We have to take the trebuchets.
A small unit, tonight.
Are you with me?
I'll see you all at the battlements.
There's pockets of men around the walls.
Regular patrols.
You all know what we're doing.
We go up along the dry mount
then we head for that cart and then the tent.
That'll give us cover until we make our way to the trebuchets.
Much, you're in charge.
If we don't come back, you fight to the end.
I'm coming too, aren't I? No, no, you're not.
I need a cool head here, not a h one out there.What?Listen to m

BLAMIRE: Come on, you lazy rebel Move yourselves!
Get to your posts!
Weapons ready.
The Sheriff had no intention of waiting till dawn.
We attack immediately!
Time to wake them up, I think.
Loose!
What's going on, Blamire?

Archers, to the left flank. Prepare to fire.
SOLDIERS SHOUTING
Open the gate!
You see?
Now you know.That's for Allan!
I thought you'd run out on us. Thought you needed a hand.
By the way...
I got you a present, courtesy of the Sheriff.
What's that?
It's Byzantine fire!
If I can work out its base components, I can make some more of this.
So we CAN fight the Sheriff?
Do it.
Destroy everything!
Storm those gates!
I want Robin Hood's head.
SHOUTING: Attack!
SHE SIGHS Well, well, well.
You are a big boy, aren't you?
CHUCKLES: Oh, come on now. Don't be shy.
It's just you and me, waiting for the end.
I mean, Robin Hood can't win. You saw the Sheriff's army.
So I guess we're in the same position - condemned
SIGHS: Such a waste.
Robin!
We're going to need the King's troops fast.
Kate won't let us down.
MEN ROAR
The gates won't hold against a battering ram
and we don't have the men to take them on.
MEN ROAR
Run!Take cover!
CRASH!
Argh!
Pull everyone back into the castle courtyard.
We'll defend from there until the King's troops arrive.

Isn't it traditional to offer the condemned one last request?
You open the door and I'll give you exactly what you want.
Mmm.
GRUNTS AND GROANS
Men are so easy.
John!
GRUNTS

The troops at Loughborough won't fight unless Richard leads them.
So what's it to be, Hood?
Surrender or slaughter?
ROBIN:Neither.

You said you'd take no prisoners
Oh, yes. Yes, I did say that.

She's mine.
Barricade the door!
BARS RATTLE Shh.
Where does that lead?
It leads into the cellar and back to the castle.
So, you've laid out the barrels like I told you to.
Exactly as you said. Good. Very good.
Byzantine fire.
So that's why Isabella came down here.
She's trying to blast her way out of the tunnel.
Might be a way out for all of us
Go and tell Robin. I'll deal with Isabella.
Fill it. Fill it, please. Robin!
Robin, if we use this much Byzan fire we'll destroy everything.
The castle, the Sheriff's army..
And with it, his power. Everything he has, gone for ever
That's what we want, isn't it?K

And me too.
You planned this.
