Season 2 Episode 1

Robin and the Outlaws have been busy constructing their ingenious new camp, but when Knighton Hall is burned to the ground, and Marian and Edward are taken under house arrest, it's clear the rules have changed. As the state of Nottingham worsens, Allan-A-Dale wants more recognition and becomes agitated when he doesn't get it. Robin cannot reassure him - he's too busy preparing to rescue two girls and their pretty mother, Rose, as well as formulating a plan to help Marian. Allan deserts the cause, determined to make his own way in the world, but everything changes when he finds himself in the castle dungeon. Rose is revealed as the Sheriff's sister and the lure of the two girls is exposed as a brilliant trap to capture Robin. The Sheriff has formulated a devastating new campaign - 'Shah Mat' - conspiring with Prince John to overthrow King Richard. Only with the help of Marian and the outlaws can Robin defeat the Black Knights. But even when Robin and the Outlaws escape with their lives, they are no longer safe - Allan has defected to the other side, becoming a spy for Gisborne.
