Friar Tuck is in jail.

Friar Tuck?

It's Robin Hood I want,

you idiot!

Oh! I'd give all my gold

if I could just get my hands...

Uh...

Did you say "Friar Tuck"?

Did I? Oh. Y-Y-Yes, I did.

Ah, Hiss! I have it.

I'll use that fat friar

as bait to trap Robin Hood.

- Another trap?

- Yes, yes, you stupid serpent.

Friar Tuck will be led to the gallows

in the village square, don't you see?

B-B-B-But, sire, hang Friar Tuck?

A man of the church?

Yes, my reluctant reptile.

And when our elusive hero

tries to rescue...

the corpulent cleric...

my men will be ready.

Well, Trigger, everything's

rigged up and all set.

Yep. It's one of the prettiest

scaffolds you ever built, Sheriff.

Oh, Sheriff, don't ya reckon we'd

oughta give that there trapdoor a test?

"Criminently." Now I know why

your mama called ya Nutsy.

Alms. Alms for the poor.

Do me old ears hear

the melodious voice of the sheriff?

That's right, old man.

What be goin' on here?

We're gonna hang Friar Tuck.

No! Hang Fri...

Um, hang Friar Tuck?

You betcha. At dawn.

And maybe it'll

even be a double hangin'.

Shh! Shh!

Dummy up, you dummy.

A double hangin', eh?

Who be the other one

who gets the rope?

Sheriff, he's gettin'

too all-fired nosy.

I didn't mean nothin'.

But, um, couldn't there be trouble

if Robin Hood showed up?

Well, what do ya know, Sheriff?

He guessed it.

Nutsy, button your beak.

Ah, no need to worry.

The sheriff be too crafty,

too clever and too smart...

for the likes of him, says I.

Ya hear that, Nutsy? For bein' blind, he

sure knows a good man when he sees one.

Heh... Says I.

SHeriff, I still got a feelin' that

that snoopy, old codger knows too much.

Oh, shut up, Trigger.

He's just a harmless,

old, blind beggar.

Alms. Alms for the poor. Alms.

Alms for the poor.

Rob. We can't let 'em

hang Friar Tuck.

Ajailbreak tonight

is the only chance he's got.

Ajailbreak?

There ain't no way you can get...

We've got to, Johnny,

or Friar Tuck dies at dawn.

One o'clock...

and all's well!

Nutsy, you better set your brains

ahead a couple of hours.

Yes, sir. Uh, does that there mean

addin' or subtractin'?

Oh, let's forget it.

Yes, sir, Sheriff, sir.

Nutsy, how can I sleep with you

yellin' "All's well!" all the time here?

Sheriff, everything

ain't "all's well."

I got a feelin' in my bones...

there's gonna be a jailbreak

any minute.

"Criminently," Trigger!

Point that peashooter

the other way.

Don't you worry none, Sheriff.

The safety's on Old Betsy.

What in tarnation you tryin' to do,

you birdbrain?

Just doin' my duty, Sheriff.

Oh, you and that itchy

trigger finger of yours.

- Hey, did you hear that?

- Sure did, Trigger.

There's somethin' funny

goin' on around here.

Come on. You cover me.

Wait a minute.

Uh, is the safety on Old Betsy?

You bet it is, Sheriff.

That's what I'm afraid of.

You go first.

All right, you in there!

Come out with your hands up!

Yeah. Reach for the sky!

Just you watch

this "preformance," partner.

Be careful, Rob.

Jehoshaphat, Trigger!

Put that peashooter down.

Oh, shucks, Trigger.

It's only Nutsy.

And "criminently,"

get back to your patrol.

On the double. Git!

I'm a-gittin'. I'm a-gittin'.

That Trigger.

He's gittin' everybody edgy.

Nothing's gonna happen.

That fat friar is gonna dangle

from the gallows come daybreak.

Fine.

Why don't ya just sit yourself

down here kinda cozy-like?

Well, thank ya, Nutsy.

Just close your sleepy little eyeballs.

The sandman's a-comin'.

Why don't you, uh,

let me loosen that belt?

Rockabye, Sheriff

Just you relax

I'm relaxing.

Ooh. Oh, Nutsy,

that's mighty sweet.

Sing it one more time, will ya?

Rockabye, Sheriff

Just you relax

I'm relaxing.

Wait a minute!

Jailbreak! Jailbreak!

I heard it! I heard it, Sheriff.

The door! The door!

Now, for the last time,

no more false alarms.

Now, you release Friar Tuck

and the others...

and I'll drop in

on the royal treasury.

Oh. Little John! It can't be!

Shh. Quiet.

We're bustin' outta here.

Thank God.

My prayers have been answered.

I'm ready.

Where's the bad guys?

Take it easy, son.

Robin Hood?

I'll get even. I'll get...

It's Robin Hood l-I want.

Praise the Lord,

and pass the tax rebate!

Come on. Follow me.

Sheriff, now... now...

now don't get your dander up...

but I still got

a feelin' that...

Friar. Get goin'. Hurry.

Guards! Guards! My gold!

Oh, no, no, no!

They're getting away with my gold!

Guards! Guards!

To the jail!

Rhinos, halt! Stop! Desist!

Everybody, this way!

That's all of them.

Get going!

This ain't no hayride.

Let's move it outta here. Ho!

On to Sherwood Forest!

Stop! My baby!

Mama! Mama! Wait for me!

We got him now.

Keep going.

Don't worry about me.

This time we got him for sure.

Shoot him!

Kill him! Kill him!

Come on, Rob. Come on.

He's just gotta make it.

No. No, no.

Hiss! He's finished!

Done for!

La, la, la

He's gonna make it,

isn't he, Little John?

Hey, what's that?

Little John, lookit, lookit.

Hey, what the...

Oh, man, did you

have me worried, Rob.

I thought you were long gone.

Ah, not Robin Hood.

He could've swum twice that far,

huh, Mr Robin Hood, sir?

Look, sire. Look. He's made it.

He got away again.

A pox on the phoney King of England!

Oo-de-lally!

- Oo-de-lally!

- Oh, no. It's so miserably unfair.

Well, I tried to tell you,

but no, no, no, you wouldn't listen.

Your traps just never work.

And now look what you've done

to your mother's castle.

Mommy!

- Hold still, you cowardly cobra!

- Sire, no!

Please! Oh! No!

Procrastinating python.

Aggravating asp!

- You eel in snake's clothing.

- Help!

He's gone stark raving mad!

You know, I thought we'd never

get rid of those two rascals.

But lucky for us folks,

King Richard returned...

and, well, he-he just

straightened everything out.

Say, we better get over to the church.

Sounds like somebody's gettin' hitched.

Long live Robin Hood!

Long live King Richard!

Oh, Friar Tuck.

It appears that I now have

an outlaw for an in-law.

It's not bad.

Gee, Skippy,

how come you're goin'?

Well, Robin Hood's

gonna have kids...

so somebody's gotta

keep their eye on things.

Ho!

Oh! I've never been so happy.

Hey, here come the bride, Trigger.

"Persent" arms!

Well, folks, that's the way

it really happened.

Love goes on and on

Oo- de-lally, oo-de-lally

Golly, what a day

Oo- de-lally, oo-de-lally

Golly, what a day
