Robin Hood, Series 2 (2007)

Much:
[To Djaq] Look, I'm not doing this.

Djaq:
Fine.

Much:
Good. Because I don't hate myself and I'm not in love with anyone else. So...

Djaq:
Fine.

Much:
Fine. Well there's nothing to say, then.

[Much paces. He notices Robin smiling]

Much:
What?

Robin:
What?

Much:
You were smiling.

Robin:
I was smiling because usually it's a struggle to shut you up.

[Much paces]

Much:
You think I talk to much. Well, I know that's what you think. Much talks too much. And eats too much. Worries too much. Well, it's easy for you to say, because if I don't do it, who will? It's alright for you, because you can just breeze through life and be everyone's hero, and not have to worry about the simple things like the fire or the food or the hole in your cape or your [He puts his arms out] birthday! 'Cause good old... dependable, old Much, he'll take care of that. And I tell you something. You take me for granted.

[Robin sn*ggers]

Much:
And you're sn*ggering at me, now.

Robin:
Much, I was just...

Much:
[Shouting] You shouldn't!

[He walks away from Robin]

Much:
And I'm angry!

[Djaq looks at Much, saddened. Will looks at Much, saddened]

[Much turns around]

Much:
And just because I love you doesn't mean I can't hate you too. And I hate you. Because in the Holy Land, [He emphasises the following words] there was two of us, and we were a [Shouting] team! And the things we went through and the horrors we saw... Went through them together! And when we came home, we were like brothers. Brothers in arms. And where's that now? Hey?! It's gone! That's where! [Emotionally] You never talk! You just don't. And you made me a free man, and we're meant to be equals. [Much shakes his head] We're not equals. The only thing that's changed is that you still treat me like a servant and you don't treat me like your friend.

Robin:
[Quietly] That's not true.

[Little John looks at Robin]

Robin:
[Quietly. To Little John] Is it true?

[Little John looks at Robin]

[Much, Djaq and Will look at Robin]

[Much nods and Robin sighs]

Much:
Oh, Kalila.
