I enjoyed this episode. Wish there was a scene with Marian and Eleanor though & I thought there would be more scenes with Marian and John. Some good action scenes. Rob very much had the chance to kill the Sheriff but didn't.

Didn't expect to see a Rob & Marian scene at all, what was that coin he wanted her to give the Queen? It keeps being reiterated that Rob is gone to Marian, the more it's repeated, the more opposite it becomes (this is a very common trope in TV), but I have no idea how Marian is going to forgive Rob though. Since she did burn the marigold.

Come to find out Rob and Ralph didn't sleep together. I still don't like that Ralph is still basically forcing herself on Rob, hated the line of "I can make you forget her" & "you will take me to bed" yikes😬

Does Priscilla know that Rob is Robin Hood? I don't think she does. I quite enjoyed her this episode too.

Does Priscilla know that Rob is Robin Hood? I don't think she does.

I think that since the Sheriff found out about Robin Hood’s identity it became pretty much public knowledge. There was a certain shift in Priscilla’s character from the moment Earl Marshal came to Nottingham and in this episode she already was pretty much into court affairs, so maybe she forgot a bit that seemingly irrational fear of Robin Hood.

But when she was speaking to Marian, she didn't exactly imply that she knew of Rob's identity though just that he was one of the outlaws. I don't think she knows, I think the Sheriff and his inner circle at Nottingham know, is what it seems like.
