Synopsis for Robin Hood: "Robin Hood vs the Merrie Men!"
Robin suffers a knock to the head while battling Prince John's men. He is brought before the evil Prince but Robin reveals that he has lost his memory. He does not even remember his own name. The Prince sees this as an opportunity to see if he can test Robin to see if he will do his bidding. The Prince informs Robin that he is the captain of his guard and that he was injured while battling a group of outlaws known as the Merrie Men. The Merrie Men have spread the word that Robin is a coward and will not face them again. Robin is determined to stand up for himself and he sets out to hunt down the Merrie Men much to the suspicion of the Princes guard who feel that Robin is faking. Robin sets out on his mission and encounters Little John. He engages him in combat and readily defeats him with his sword skills and cunning. He then apprehends Will Scarlett with the same ease along with Friar Tuck. All three men are stunned that Robin has betrayed them as they are led in captivity to prison. Robin locks up the three men but little John is able to strike a blow at Robin as he closes the door. The knock on his head helps Robin regain his memory and he quickly realizes the mistake he has made. He helps his three men escape from John's prison as they fight for their freedom. Later that night they rejoice in their freedom as they drink by the campfire.
