Marian arrives in medieval Worksop and tries to sell her pet tadpole Edwina to vain tailor Robin of Kensington who has just finished making the Royal Underpants for King John. Rastafarian Barrington and grubby Rabies are being punished by the sheriff and in the confusion the tadpole ends up in Rabies' nose. Along with violent dwarf Little Ron Marian persuades Robin to use the Royal Underpants to get them into John's castle to save Rabies, Barrington and Edwina - which they do. However Robin has to pull his hood over his face as the king recognises him. He earns himself the name of Robin Hood but the group are now outlaws and as such, Marian tells them, it is their duty to rob the rich and help the poor. They are not wholly convinced.
