Robin Hood Episode Details!


Episode 3x04 "Sins of the Father"

Gisborne has yet to return to Nottingham, as the drama starring Jonas Armstrong, Richard Armitage, Keith Allen, David Harewood and Joanne Froggatt continues. The grasping Sheriff, meanwhile, is after more loot and so hires a new tax collector, Ruthless Rufus, who arrives with his son, Edmund, to witness Robin and the Outlaws attack the Sheriff's men.

To prove his hard-man credentials, Rufus storms into Locksley village and throws his weight around and smashes up Kate's family's pottery and kiln. Kate fights back and is forced to accompany bully boy Rufus to Locksley Manor, his new home. Much and Robin arrive and save her, but also succeed in getting her outlawed.

Robin decides they will have to kidnap Rufus, although their ambush doesn't quite go to plan. Kate and Allan are taken captive by Rufus but Robin captures Edmund. Rufus demands that his son is returned by midday and says if this happens then maybe Robin's cohorts will still be breathing.

Elsewhere, Kate and Allan are held prisoner in the butcher's shop – which Rufus has claimed as his own. Robin searches Locksley Manor, while Tuck interrogates Edmund. A meat hook reminds Little John where he recognises Rufus from.

Rufus forces Scrope, the Sheriff's treasurer, to secretly work for him. Scrope persuades the Sheriff to loan his troops to the Earl of Northumberland, allowing Rufus to raid the treasury. The Sheriff discovers he's been robbed and, without a second thought, kills Scrope and charges off to the butcher's shop.

Meanwhile, back in the forest, Edmund explains to Tuck that Rufus's father was killed by the Sheriff and confesses that the butcher's shop is his father's hideout – where he's holding Kate and Allan.

A confrontation ensues between Robin and his gang, the Sheriff and Rufus and Edmund, and terrible truths are revealed.
