- I've always wanted
a bow and arrow.

So when I saw this in
the hobby shop window,

I kept working on Dad
until he got it for me.

- Sure is a swell bow, Dennis.

- Does that arrow go
right through people?

- No, Seymour.

This little rubber dingus here
just makes it stick on things.

- That's not much fun.

- Here Dennis, let's
shoot it at something.

- Well, I haven't
got a target yet.

Hey, I know, I'll do like that
poem we learned in school.

I shot an arrow into the air.

It fell to earth,
I knew not where.

- (Angrily) Ahh.

Dennis.

- Oh, oh.

I guess I do know where.

(THEME MUSIC)

- Gee, I'm sorry Mr. Wilson.

I didn't mean to hit you.

- I know Dennis.

You never mean to
do things, any more

than an earthquake means
to knock over buildings.

- If it makes a big
bruise, can I see it?

- Oh, you're a
gruesome little boy.

- Oh, I won't hit you
again, Mr. Wilson.

- How can I be sure?

You don't have too much
control over that thing.

- Well I'll stay here with
you the rest of the day.

If I'm where I can see
you, I won't hit you.

- O-- oh, no, no.

You mustn't stay with me.

That's the worst-- Well I-- I
mean you wouldn't enjoy that.

- Well, we wouldn't
mind, would we fellows?

- No, we want to stay here.

- Oh no, no, no, no, really.

Boys shouldn't stay in one
place, especially this place.

I have an idea.

Do you know the
story of Robin Hood?

- Yeah, he lived Sherwood Forest.

And he always said stuff
like forsooth and verily.

- Yeah, and he always fought
with the Sheriff of Nottingham.

I like him.

He was a crook.

- Jeepers, no he was a hero.

- You are right, Dennis.

He stole from the rich
and gave to the poor.

- And used a bow and
arrow just like mine.

- That's what gave me the idea.

Now why don't you
boys go and play

Robin Hood and his
Merry Men today.

- Hey, that sounds keen.

- But remember, Robin Hood
did not live in the town.

He lived in the forest, far away
from people like me, far away

from.

- But there's no real
woods near here.

- Hey, there's trees in the
park across the street.

We could use that
for Sherwood Forest.

- Good thinking, my boy.

- Good morning, Mr. Wilson.

Your wife told me I'd
find you back here.

- Good morning, Mrs. Elkins.
- Hello, boys.

- Hi, Mrs. Elkins.

- Well, it's a delightful
day, isn't it?

- What do you want
from me, Mrs. Elkins?

- What do I want?

Why, can't I make
a friendly remark

about the weather to a
neighbor without being

accused of wanting something?

- Not to this neighbor.

I know you don't
like me, Mrs. Elkins.

So when you speak
in honeyed tones,

I am naturally suspicious.

- Well, I can see good
manners are wasted on you.

I'm working on my
lawn, and I would

like to borrow to
your lawn edger.

Or rent it if you prefer.

- I do not own a lawn edger.

- Ha.
Well of course you do.

I saw you taking it out of
your garage only last week.

- I-- I-- I gave it away.

- Oh, come now.

You never gave anything away.

- I repeat, I do not
have a lawn edger.

If I did, I would
be using it myself.

- I should have known better
than to ask a favor of you.

It won't happen
again, Mr. Wilson.

- The nerve of that
woman borrowing from me.

- Yeah, especially
something you haven't got.

- Oh.
Ah, yes.

Now why don't you
boys go out and play

Robin Hood and his
Merry Men in the park.

Now.

- Well, it would
seem more real if we

had hats with feathers
in them like he wore.

- Well surely your mother can
whip up some hats for you.

- Hey, that's right.

I'll be Robin Hood.

- And these lads can be
your faithful lieutenants.

This one is just
perfect for Little John.

- My name is Seymour.

- All right, Little Seymour.

- Your name's John, Mr. Wilson.

Couldn't you play with
us and be Big John?

I-- I'm sorry.

I'm very busy today.

- Gee, Dennis, me
and Seymour don't

have bows and arrows like you.

- You can make them, Tommy.

All you need is a piece
of wood and some string.

- Yeah, sure.

- So we'll go home and
get our hats and stuff,

and then we'll meet
in Sherwood Forest.

Thanks, Mr. Wilson.

Come on, Tommy.

- And stay there, all day.

- Is the cap almost done, Mom?

My Merry Men are
probably waiting for me.

- As soon as I get the
feather sewed on tight.

- Yeah.

Robin Hood wouldn't
have a loose feather.

- Is Robin Hood gonna have
time to mow the lawn?

That's what I want to know.

- Jeepers, Dad.

Robin Hood didn't cut lawns.

He was too heroic for that.

- Well, it'll only
take a half an hour.

You [inaudible]
car with that lawn.

- Jeepers.

Every time I want to
have some fun somebody

figures out some
work for me to do.

- You poor, downtrodden boy.

- Couldn't I cut
it tomorrow, Dad?

I'll cut it extra
short tomorrow.

- Well, OK.

But no excuses then.

- I promise.

And if I see a moose
in Sherwood Forest,

I'll shoot one for your dinner.

- Well, thanks a lot.

I'm not that hungry.

I'll settle for a small elk.

- There.

That's finished.

Now let's see how it looks.

- How do I look?

- Perfect.

- Then methinks I will me
gone to the green wood.

- Why, he even
speaks the language.

- Would you like some
cookies for your Merry Men?

- Jeepers, Mom.

People didn't give Robin
Hood things, he took them.

- Take them.

- You'll have to turn your backs.

- Might as well keep
this authentic.

- Verily.

My men will feast on ye cookies.

- Isn't it wonderful to be the
parents of a prominent outlaw?

- Forsooth.

- You're gonna trip over
that thing, Seymour.

- Yeah.

The Merry Men had
longbows, but that's

the longest bow I ever saw.

Hist!

The Sheriff of
Nottingham approaches.

- What do ya mean?

That's just Sergeant Mooney.

- He's a policeman.

And that's sort of a Sheriff.

Let's foil him.

- And how do you foil people?

- Well, we'll hide behind those
bushes and jump out at him.

Come on Merry Men, duck down.

Halt Sheriff, before I push
ye arrow in ye stomach.

- Well, what's all this, Dennis?

- I'm not Dennis, I'm Robin Hood.

- Oh, I beg your
pardon, Mr. Hood.

- You can call me Robin.

- What're you holding
me up for, Robin?

- Because you're the
Sheriff of Nottingham.

And we don't want you hanging
around Sherwood Forest.

- I see.

Well, uh, can I pass
through just this once?

- This time I'll spare your life.

But watched ye next time.

- OK ye, I'll be careful.

- Boy, we foiled him
pretty good, didn't we?

- Yeah, he [inaudible] easy.

- Well, that was our
first adventure.

Now we have to laugh.

- Why?

- Because we're Merry Men.

Come on, laugh.

Ha, ha, ha, ha.

- [inaudible] seems to work
very well, Mr. Duncan.

- Yeah.

I bought some of
the best ones I had.

Not bad for an edger
that's five years old.

- How much are you asking for it?

- Six bucks.

You wouldn't get a
better price from

any other secondhand
dealer in town.

- Oh, very well, I'll take it.

- Well, since Mrs. Elkins
mentioned that lawn edger,

I think I'll use it today.
- Oh, John.

You shouldn't.

What if she sees you?

- What if she does?

- Well dear, you told
her you didn't have one.

Oh, she'll think
you're terrible.

- She thinks that anyhow.

She's a stupid,
opinionated sort of person,

who dislikes other people
for no reason at all.

- Well you don't like
her very much, either.

- Like her?
I can't stand her.

- Why not?

- I don't know.

I just can't.

I'll put that lawn edger
to work just as soon

as I finished these
last couple of pages.

- All right, you do that.

I'll be leaving soon for my
appointment at the beauty

parlor.

- What'll we do next, Robin?

- How about taking some from the
rich and giving it to the poor?

- OK.

We're we gonna to
find some rich people?

- Well, there are a
lot of them in Texas.

- Well, let's go.

- Oh, Seymour.

We better find someone
closer than that.

- Yeah.

Hey, how about Mr. Wilson?

He makes a lot of money
writing for those magazines.

- OK, let's go over there.

- Oh.
- Hi, Mrs. Wilson.

- Dennis.

I was just going over
to see your mother.

- Oh, she's not home.

She's gone shopping.

- Oh, well.

When she comes back,
will you tell her

I'll be back in about two hours
and I'll come over and help her

with that dress pattern?

- OK.

- Well, what are these
outfits you're wearing?

- I'm Robin Hood.

And these are my Merry Men.

- We take from the rich
and give to the poor.

- Mr. Wilson's pretty rich.

Is there something
of his we can take?

- Well, um, there's a lot of
stuff out beside the garage.

You go help yourselves.

- Gee, thanks, Mrs. Wilson.

Come on Merry Men.

- Don't forget to
tell your mother.

- I won't.

- Gadzooks.

There's a lot of stuff
here we could take.

- Verily.

- Hey, how about this lawn edger?

Mr. Wilson doesn't
even know he has it.

- Yeah.

He told Mrs. Elkins
he didn't have one.

- OK, we'll take it.

- What poor person are we
gonna give it to, Dennis?

- To me.

I have to cut our lawn tomorrow.

- Are you a poor boy?

- I'm not only poor,
Seymour, I'm downtrodden.

My mom said so.

- That's strange.

I know I put that edger there.

Well, somebody
must've-- Of course.

Mrs. Elkins took it.

Well, she won't
get away with this.

- [phone ringing]

- (SIGHS) Always
when I'm working.

- I knew it.

- Good morning, Mrs. Elkins.

- Oh, good morning Alice.

- My that looks like hard work.

- Well, it would be much easier
if we lived in an honest town.

- What?

- Just this morning I
bought a lawn edger

and the minute my back was
turned, somebody stole it.

- Stole it?

Oh, how awful.

Did you call the police?
- Well, I phoned Sergeant Mooney.

But you know how he is.

He said he'd look
into the matter, which

means he'll file
it and forget it.

- But you'll wear
yourself out using

those shears to cut the grass.

Why don't you borrow
Mr. Wilson's lawn edger?

- Mr. Wilson doesn't own one.

- Oh yes he does.

I just saw him using it
on my way to the market.

- So that's it.

He's the wretch
that stole my edger.

- Mr. Wilson wouldn't
do a thing like that.

- There's nothing that man
wouldn't do, especially to me.

Well, I won't call
Sergeant Mooney this time.

I'm going straight
to the police station

and force him to take action.

- Oh dear.

- I'm leaving now, dear.

- Oh, more shopping?

- No, I told you it's my
beauty parlor appointment.

- Oh.
Well, happy hairdo.

- I see you found the lawn edger.

- Yes, I found it exactly
where I thought it would be.

- Good.

I'll be home in time for dinner.

- Good shot, Robin.

- Forsooth.

We must be keen of eye and
strong of arm o' Merry Men.

Shoot, Seymour.

- I'm tired of shooting.

When are we gonna
take from the rich

and give to the poor some more?

That's the part I like.

- Aw, we've been doing
that all morning.

- Yeah.

Besides Mr. Wilson's
lawn edger, we

took an ice cream bar from
your rich little brother,

chocolate cookies from
my Mom, and a whole pie

from Seymour's house.

- Yeah, but I was the one
that got the licking.

- Wait, do we know anybody
poor who needs a new lamp?

Look.

- Hey kids, do you
know Mrs. Elkins?

- Mrs. Elkins?
Sure.

She lives up that way, in
the house with the red brick.

Put that down, Seymour.

You can't shoot the bard until
we find out what he wants.

- I was just up at her
house, but nobody was home.

Do you think one of your folks
could take this lamp for her?

Somebody's gotta to sign for it.

- Well, sure.

I'll go ask my Mom if--
Hey, there's Mrs. Wilson.

She'll take it
for you all right.

Mrs. Wilson.

Hi, Mrs. Wilson.

- Well gadzooks, 'tis Robin Hood.

Aren't you pretty far
from Sherwood Forest?

- No ma'am.

It's just right over
there in the park.

Would you mind keeping
this lamp for Mrs. Elkins?

She's not home.

- Why Robin, for
you I'd be glad to.

Just put it inside here.

- Thanks lady.

Sign here.

- I'm gonna be Robin Hood
all day, Mrs. Wilson.

So if you get in any trouble
and need some help, just holler.

- I certainly will.

- Because one thing
Robin Hood always

does, is rescue
maidens in distress.

- Well, I may be in
distress someday,

but I'm afraid I won't
make maiden again.

Thank you anyway
- Bye, Mrs. Wilson.

- Bye.

- Hello, John.

- Oh, hello Mooney, I-- Oh.

Hello, Mrs. Elkins.

- She kind of dragged
me over here.

Claims you took her lawn edger.

- What?

Oh, Mooney, this
woman has flipped.

- Oh ho, flipped am I. There's
your evidence right there.

Officer, arrest this man.

- If anyone is going to
be arrested, it's you.

That is my lawn edger.

She tried to borrow it from me.

When I refused to
lend it her, she

took it from beside my garage.

- Why, that's not true.

I bought this edger.

- And she wants me arrested.

She's-- You did what?

- I bought this edger from the
second hand man this morning,

and you stole it
from my front yard.

- Oh.

Duncan Second Hand.

You need it, we've got it.

[inaudible]

That isn't mine.

- I know it's right here
in your possession, right?

- Yes.

- Right.

I caught you red-handed
this time, John Wilson.

- Oh, look, there's been a
big mistake, Mrs. Elkins.

Believe me.

- Sergeant, arrest him.

I demand that you
arrest him right now.

- Look, will you let him explain.

He said it was a big mistake.

Let's hear his story, huh.

Go ahead John.

- Thank you, [inaudible].

Now what happened was
this, Mrs. Elkins.

You see--

- Well, I thought
it was mine, so I

brought it home and
started using it.

I'm-- I'm terribly
sorry, Mrs. Elkins.

I-- I apologize.

- Well John, that
was really a mix-up.

But I knew there's be an answer.

OK, Mrs. Elkins?

Yes, I suppose so.

Only It did look suspicious.

Ha ha.

- Well, if I ever decide
to take up stealing,

it'll be something more
valuable than that.

- Ha ha ha.

I hope so.

Oh John, you mind
if I use the phone?

I want to check in
with headquarters.

- Help yourself.

Oh, would you care for a cup of
hemlock, uh tea, before you go?

- Oh, no thank you.

But I would like use you
phone, too, if you don't mind.

I want to call the
department store

and find out what
happened to the lamp

they were supposed
to send me yesterday.

Their service is terrible.

- The telephone's in the hall.

Help yourself.

- Thank you.

- Maybe somebody stole her lamp.

Ha.

- Probably a gang of
international lamp thieves

hijacked the truck.

- (Loudly) Sergeant, Sergeant
Mooney, will you come here?

There it is, my lamp.
- Huh?

It does have your name on it.

- Maybe you're friend can
talk his way out of this.

Picked it up by
mistake I suppose.

- I never saw this before and
I-- How did that get here?

- Well, I think
that's my question.

How did Mrs. Elkin's
lamp get here?

- I haven't the faintest idea.

- Oh, is he a cool one.
- Come on, John.

Put your sweater on.
I'm taking you downtown.

- Downtown.

Oh now, Mooney.

You don't honestly believe that
I'd stealing anything, do you?

- No, John, not intentionally,
but I been reading up on

kleptomaniacs.

You know what they are?

- Any dunce knows that.

- Sometimes a fellow takes
things and doesn't even

knows he doing it.
It's sort of a quirk.

- He knew what he was doing.

- Come on, John.

Don't worry about it.

We'll get it all
straightened out.

- Wha-- oh.

- And I promised Dad' I'd
treat [inaudible] for dinner.

But there aren't even
any deer in our forest.

- I know where there's a deer.

- You do?
Oh, boy.

Where?

- At the junkyard.

It's made out of iron.

- Seymour, an iron
deer's no good.

It-- Hey, there's that
old Sheriff of Nottingham.

- I wonder what's happening.

- Looks like he's making
trouble for Big John.

We better go see.

- Now don't you let him
get away, Sergeant.

You do your duty.

I'll be glad to testify.

- Let's go, John.

- I am not going down
there in the squad car

and have everybody
looking at me.

- I'll drive my own car down.

- OK, take your own car.

But be there.

[inaudible]

- What's the matter, Mr. Wilson?

Is something the matter?

- There certainly is.

This knucklehead is
arresting me for nothing.

I am absolutely innocent.

And he knows it.
- Jeepers.

And what does Robin Hood do
when his friends are in trouble?

He rescues them, right?

- Right.

- Especially when they're
in the evil clutches

of the Sheriff of
Nottingham, like our friend

Big John is right now.

- He's innocent, too.

He said so.

- Mr. Wilson's always innocent.

He wouldn't hurt a fly.

So that's why we
gotta go down there

and rescue him from the Sheriff.

- The Sheriff outta mow him down.

- How are we gonna do it?

- Just like Robin
Hood, that's how.

We'll hold up the Sheriff
with our trusty long bows

and let Big John
escape to the forest.

- In the park?

- No, the real forest.

He can jump in his car and
go hide out in the old cabin

out by the rock quarry.

- Yeah, that's a swell hideout.

- And he stay there
until us Merry

Men prove that he's innocent.

- How we prove that?

- How do I know how
we'll prove it.

We'll just prove it, that's all.

- Yeah, Seymour.

Don't ask dumb questions.

- He'll need supplies
to hide out with.

So you go back to you're
homes and get 'em.

- He'll need food to eat.

- Yeah, and warm
clothing, blankets maybe.

And he'll need a radio
to listen to the ball

game and police calls with.

- I can get a radio.

- I'll bring some warm clothes.

- And I'll get some groceries.

And we'll meet in front of
my house in half an hour.

OK, Merry Men, let's go.

- Here's my aunt's radio, Dennis.

She keeps it out
on her back porch.

- That was out on her porch?

Jeepers, it's a wonder
somebody don't steal it.

- Yeah, she's pretty careless.

- Big John will get pretty
hungry out there in the forest.

We had a lot left over
from dinner last night.

So this outta hold him.

- Boy, that looks good.

He'll sure be happy
when he sees that.

- Dennis.
Dennis.

I got some warm clothes
for him, Dennis.

My Mom had it
hanging out to air.

She won't mind if we borrow it.

- Gadzooks, Seymour.

I think Big John
would rather have

a blanket than a lady's coat.

But the main thing is to
get him rescued right now.

We'll sneak down
alleys all the way

and put this stuff
in his car for him.

- Yeah.

- And then we'll get the drop
on the Sheriff of Nottingham

and let Big John escape
from the dungeon.

- Yeah, Ms. Wilson, that clears
it up fine about the lamp.

We had to call four
beauty shops to find you.

(SHOUTING) We had to call
four beauty shops to find you.

I'm glad we did.

- Stop shouting at
my wife, Mooney.

- She's under the dryer.

(SHOUTING) Thanks
a lot, Ms. Wilson.

Good-bye.

I'm sorry, John.

It was a bad mistake,
and well, I apologize.

- Well, you certainly should.

Dragging an innocent
citizen off to jail,

calling him a kleptomaniac.

It's an outrage.

- You see how it is, John.

A law man has only
the evidence to go on.

And it did look bad.

- Yeah, uh, well let's
forget it, Mooney.

I know you have a
tough job and I would--

- (SHOUTING) Hands
up, you varlot.

- Hands up.

- Yeah, up.

- Robin Hood and his
Merry Men are here

to rescue you, Big John, from
the Sheriff of Nottingham.

- Big John, eh?

Well relax, Robin Hood.

Your friend is free to go.

- Everything's all right boys.

No trouble.

- Aw heck.

I want to mow him down.

- Boy, I had a narrow escape.

- By George, it's wonderful
having good friends, Mooney.

They came all the way here from
Sherwood Forest to save me.

- Forsooth, Robin Hood doth
always rescue his friends.

- Well, such friendship
deserves a reward.

Robin, you and your
Merry Men must be hungry

wandering around
that forest all day.

Get yourselves some double-dip
ice cream cones, OK?

- Oh, boy.

Thanks Mr. Wilson.

Come on, Merry Men.

- Ha, ha, ha, ha.

[phone ringing]

- Just a minute, John.

- Huh?
- Police Headquarters.

Sergeant Mooney speaking.

- Gee, a whole dollar.

- Yeah.

- Hey, you think we outta take
the hideaway food and stuff

out of Mr. Wilson's car here.

- No.

We'll let him drive it home
and then take the stuff back.

Right now we've got
ice cream to buy.

- All right, ma'am.

Just relax.

I'll be right out to see you.

Yeah, it seems like we've got
a little crime in this town

after all.

- Oh?

- A woman reports a
fur coat stolen today,

and somebody took a radio
from her next door neighbor.

- Well, I know you'll
solve it, Mooney.

I'll get out [inaudible].

- I'll walk you out
to the car, John.

- OK.

- John, you were a real
sport about this mess today

and I won't forget it.

- I don't intend to let
you forget it, Mooney.

Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Say, you better get busy on
that crime wave of yours.

Now, I'm going on home.

- Oh no, John.

I gave you a pretty
rough time for it.

The least I can do is
open the door for you.

- Well, thank you.
[overlapping voices]

- There you are, John.

- Thank you.
[interposing voices]

- OK.

I'll be a son of a gun.
- What?

What goes on here?

Where did all this
stuff come from?

What is all this?

- This is the worst case
of kleptomania I ever saw.

Come on, John.

We're going back inside.

- Oh.

- John, I'm locking you
up for your own good 'til

the city psychiatrist gets here.

You're sick. [inaudible]
carry the evidence.

- Oh, now wait a minute, Tony.

- Come on now, John.

- [interposing voices]

- I just love doing things
for good old Mr. Wilson.

- Yeah, he sure was glad
when we came to rescue him.

- Tommy, I'll bet he's the
happiest man in town right now.

And he outta be.

Because no matter
what Mr. Wilson does,

I'm always right
there to help him out.
