Tom and Jerry: Robin Hood and His Merry Mouse Page #2

---

[CHUCKLING]

Careful now.

[MAID MARION CHUCKLES]

MAN:

Ouch!

TOM:

Whoo-hoo-hoo! Oof!

What if we had the peasants build

a giant statue of me holding money?

[CRASHING]

Your cat-at-arms is dampening the fire.

Isn't he supposed to be after that mouse?

Yes. So sorry, sire.

Problem is, Robin Hood has stolen

so much of the tax money...

that I might not have enough

for my statue.

What are we going to do?

Sire, what is the perfect bait

for the perfect trap, hm?

- Ah!

- Besides money?

Well, for you, a beautiful woman

who shall remain nameless.

Maid Marion.

And, for someone like Robin Hood,

to be crowned best archer in all of England.

Perhaps we should offer him all three

at an archery tournament.

Oh, well, that is good.

[LAUGHING]

[LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY]

[SIGHS]

[CREAKING]

Hey, you, that's royal property

Come back here.

Well, well, a royal archery contest.

The winner is given a purse of gold

and crowned best archer in all of England.

And he receives a kiss from Maid Marion.

Oh, here we go.

Gentlemen, I put it to you,

as the best archer in all of England...

I should be crowned as such

and win this purse of gold for the poor.

MERRY MEN:

Huzzah!

And, of course, the grandest prize of all...

will be the moment where Maid Marion

rests her ruby reds...

resplendent with divine delights...

against my own,

bespeaking love...

without one word uttered.

I get to smooch with my girlfriend.

MERRY MEN:
Huzzah!

- Huzzah.

That's Middle English for "hooray."

You know it's probably a trap.

You think that will stop Robin?

They'll arrest you on sight, my boy.

Worry not, my good friar.

Lest you forget, I am a master of disguise.

[CHATTERING]

I have got a bad feeling about this.

Keep it natural.

Just blend in.

[CHATTERING]

Ah, what a beautiful day for a trap.

Heh-heh.

Oh, yes, it is. Heh.

Sire, you don't actually believe Robin Hood

would be foolish enough to show up today?

Oh, yes.

I think I know the mind of that scalawag

a little better than you, my dear.

I fear you're right.

Now let the games begin.

[PLAYING FAN FARE]

[CROWD CLAPPING]

Here, Jerry. Give Maid Marion this.

It's my lucky charm...

for her to replace the one she gave me.

No? How about this then?

That is a very lucky spoon.

It saved my life once.

No? Then what?

That is an excellent idea.

Well done, Jerry Mouse.

[ROBIN HOOD CHUCKLES]

[CROWD CHEERING]

MAN:

Anybody seen my helmet?

[CROWD CHEERING]

[GRUNTS]

[CROWD CHEERING]

MAN:

Ow!

[MAN GRUNTING]

We have our two finalists!

- The Sheriff of Nottingham...

- Psst. Psst. Psst.

REFEREE:

...and John of Smithtown.

[CROWD CLAPPING]

You're so lovely.

[SIGHS]

Psst. Pss...

[GASPING]

Lovely. Heh-heh-heh.

[GASPS]

Hi. Heh-heh-heh.

- Heh...

REFEREE:
Whoever's arrow...

comes closest to the bull's-eye...

will win the competition.

After you.

[CROWD MURMURING]

Dead center!

[CROWD CHEERING]

Huh? Oh.

REFEREE:

A miss. The sheriff wins.

- Wait a minute.

- Huh.

[CROWD GASPS]

[CHEERING]

We have a winner.

- Huzzah!

- Heh-heh.

I've come to claim my prize.

Especially the kiss.

[CROWD LAUGHING]

The only prize you'll be getting...

is the sharp edge

of the executioner's ax...

Robin Hood.

CROWD:
Oh!

Oh, no.

[GRUNTING]

[CHATTERING]

ROBIN HOOD:

This way, men.

Oh, never mind.

Well, now, men, it's, um...

It's not as bad as it looks.

- It looks like we're all imprisoned.

- Being taken to the dungeon.

To be executed on the morrow.

When you say it like that,

I guess it is as bad as it looks.

Will, look. It's Jerry Mouse.

Here he comes.

And there he goes.

[CRASHING]

Ha-ha! Good fellow.

Jerry, the lock.

Can you open it'?

WILL:
Huh?

ROBIN HOOD:
Oh...

[HORSE NEIGHS]

[NEIGHS]

Well, third time's the charm.

[SQUEAKING]

You've got it this time, Jerry.

He's done it!

Gallant try, dear mouse. Gallant try.

[DRAWBRIDGE THUDS]

[FOOTSTEPS]

Enjoy the slop, boys.

Even though you'll be dead

before it's digested.

- Right? Ha-ha-ha.

- Go on, have a laugh while you can.

You must not know who you're dealing with.

Isn't that right, Robin?

Robin?

Robin?

WOMAN:

He's always been there to help in time of need.

Now who's gonna help Robin?

MAN:
I'm afraid you'd need an army

to get in there, my dear.

It'll take a different sort of hero

to save Robin Hood.

I'm sorry, men.

Don't blame yourself, my son.

It's because of me that we're in here.

And it's because of me that she's...

still up there instead of in my arms.

Oh, my darling Marion.

Oh, my dear, sweet Robin.

[SINGING]

Gazing from my window

There you are

You're so very close and yet so far

When I see your face, dear

Then I know this much is true

There's no other one for me but you

No other love for me

No other one for me

No other love for me

I know deep in my heart

No other one for me

No other love for me, it's true

There's no other one for me but you

[SINGING]

Chained within this cell

I dream of you

Thoughts of all the scrapes

That we've been through

Giving me the courage

For the fight that's sure to be

There's no other hope for me, you see

No other love for me

No other one for me

MAID MARION:

No other love for me

I know

- Deep in my heart

ROBIN:
Deep in my heart

- No other one for me

- No other one for me

- No other love for me, it's true

- No other love for me, it's true

- Nothing's ever keeping us

- Nothing's ever keeping us

- Apart

- Apart

Oh, Jerry, this is terrible.

Perhaps I should write Robin a note.

There must be something we can do.

[CLATTERING]

Maid Marion.

As the default winner

of the archery contest...

I believe I'm owed that kiss.

What do you have there?

Nothing, my lord.

A letter? To Robin Hood?

You're the SPY?

That's right, you blackguard.

Well, now you'll perish as a traitor.

Unless... Hm...

You know,

I could spare you from that fate...

if you agree to be my wife.

I wouldn't marry you

if you were the last man on Earth...

Sheriff of Nothingham.

It's... It's Nottingham.

The Sheriff of Nottingham!

Get it? Nottingham.

Regardless, I would rather be finished off

by the executioner's ax...

than become your wife.

That, fair maid, can and will be arranged.

Guards!

Let no one in or out.

If she tries to escape, finish her.

Are you sure?

She's the only girl in this whole picture.

[CREAKING]

[CRASHING]

[CLATTERING]

[CREAKING]

[FOOTSTEPS]

Sire, we need to talk.

In a moment.

My spies have just arrived from France.

What news have you of my brother?

Oh, it's terrible news, my liege.

Very bad, definitely very bad.

Yes, yes, not now, you stupid cat.

- The king, Richard the Lionheart, returns.

- Definitely coming back.

Even as we speak, he's on a ship

that lands in England tomorrow morn.

Yeah, crack of dawn, definitely very early.

The Crusades are over?

Well, that was fast.

Sire, if the king returns, we'll...

I mean, you will lose all your power.

And more importantly,

I'll have to move back into the guest castle...

without any of my money.
