01:04You can be little John. Now, let's see. Who's gonna be the rich old villain?
01:12Now, who's gonna be the old villain?
01:17Now, let's see. Who's gonna be the mean old rich old villain?
01:23Who's gonna be the old...
01:26...me?
01:27Don't get so excited. All you gotta do is march through the forest for your treasure, and we'll rob you and give it to the poor.
01:41Won't that be fun?
01:46He wants to be the villain.
01:50Don't ya?
01:57I don't know why I always have to be the bad guy. I'd like to be the good guy once in a while, I guess.
02:14What? Oh, get ready to battle with Rob Good. On guard, you certainly have to be very good.
02:23To beat me, though I doubt that you ever can. Defeat me, so you'll never be quite the man for my clan.
02:32Oh, boy, I'm that dear villain I'll never see. Come on, this time you are facing your enemy.
02:40Remember, you're the terrible rich old guy. To beat you will be easy as punk in pot.
02:48Which is all in the round, you're the logical ones we've found.
02:52To be robbed once again by the jolliest merry men we've seen.
02:57And though we are doing the things we should, to be like Rob and Good.
03:05Help! Help!
03:14Who's there?
03:17It's me, Maid Marian.
03:22Now, who could Maid Marian be?
03:34Get the book!
04:05Gee, she's my sweetheart. We gotta save her.
04:10Where are you, Maid Marian? Where are you, Maid Marian?
04:16Here I am.
04:18Here I am. Help!
04:26Where are you? Help!
04:31Where are you?
04:33Help! Help! Here I am!
04:44Where?
04:46Here!
04:48Where?
04:51Here!
04:56Where are you?
04:58I'm in here! Save me!
05:02Gosh, we better hurry.
05:14Where are you, Maid Marian?
05:16Here I am, Rob and Good.
05:20And I like little squirrels very, very much.
05:34I love little squirrels, little fat juicy squirrels.
05:42Especially with carrots and potatoes and onions.
05:50Doesn't that just make your mouth water?
06:12Howl!
06:19Howl! Howl! Howl! Howl! Howl!
06:26Howley-ho! Howl!
06:28I guess we better break down the door.
06:34Look, fellas. Get me out of here, see?
06:38Howl!
06:40Look, fellas, please get me out of here.
06:43Guess we'll have box stew tonight, boys.
06:47Look, fellas, I'm young, strong, healthy.
06:51Don't let him kill me!
06:54Oh, my gosh! I'm afraid to die!
07:00Let me out! Let me out of here!
07:03Let me out! I want to get out of here!
07:06Let me out! Let me out!
07:11Gee, fellas, thanks a lot.
07:16Who's gonna be Robin Hood?
