Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves Page #5

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I would my lady, but I've sworn to protect you.

SARAH:

Protect me? Robin of Locksley was nothing but a spoiled bully. And besides as you can see, we have enough protection.

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

Marian, wait!

You're truly courageous against an unarmed man.

(kort gevecht, Azeem probeert de deur in te beuken)

DUNCAN:

Point me towards danger, Azeem. I'm ready!

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

Hello Marian

CUT TO:

16 EXT./ DUBOIS CASTLE COURT YARD

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

His last thoughts were of you

MARIAN:

Oh Peter

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I'm sorry, Marian. I'm sorry.

MARIAN:

How do I know you didn't abandon him to save your own skin?

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

No one feels his loss more then I

MARIAN:

Well, next time I go to London, I'll be sure to convey your condolences to my mother.

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I would think, for your safety, that you would join her there

MARIAN:

No, I have no interest in life at court. All that gossip and carrying favours

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

But you're alone here

MARIAN:

Hardly. These years have left us many in need. Well you and my brother were playing boy-hero Nottingham has plundered the shire.

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I see you still have your lands

MARIAN:

Because I give them no excuse to take them

As the kings cousin it's my station to look after these people until he's returned

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

Marian, Marian! My purpose to come here, was not to hurt you. I swore. I swore to your brother that I would protect you.

MARIAN:

You can not replace my brother

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I do not want to replace him. Marian, I've returned to my home to find it destroyed and my father murdered. And the only explanations for it are the ramblings (gebrabbel) of an old blind man.

MARIAN:

All I remember of you is a spoilt bully who used to burn my hair as a child.

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

Please allow that years of war and prison may change a man.

MARIAN:

Robin, whatever happened between you and your father, you mustn't believe...what they accused him of

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I don't

TRANSITION:

17 EXT./ DUBOIS CASTLE

AZEEM:

Christian! Look!

How did you uneducated kind ever take Jerusalem?

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

God knows

MARIAN:

What is it?:
What is it?

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

It's Nottingham's soldiers

MARIAN:

C:

oming here? Is this your protection?

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I've killed some of the Sheriff's men

MARIAN:

Oh dear:

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I fear I've placed you in danger

MARIAN:

I can take care of myself:just go! No that's my horse!

AZEEM:

A truly magnificent animal, my lady

MARIAN:

Go!

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I said I've sworn to protect you

MARIAN:

And I say no more boyish gestures

ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY

I'm not leaving
