Synopsis for "Black Knight"
When King Arthur answers a call to overthrow Sir Guy Wandrell and his forces, the Black Knight joins the battle and succeeds in defeating Wandrell's forces. In the aftermath of the battle, Sir Guy confesses to King Arthur that he and his men began looting and plundering the region as he owns a small barony and sought to acquire great wealth in order to win the hand of Lady Rosamund. As Sir Guy was motivated by love, King Arthur decrees that Sir Guy must stay confined to his own land and if he is to deviated from this he would be arrested and locked in the dungeons of Camelot.
However this defeat has not stopped Sir Guy, who blames his defeat on the Black Knight and begins plotting revenge. He then has his armorer fashion a suit of armor that resembles that of the Black Knight so that he can frame the hero for crimes. Meanwhile, the Black Knight races through his secret passage in the castle so that he can change back into his alter-ego of Sir Percy before anyone can notice his absence. After once more failing to charm Lady Rosamund, Sir Percy overhears how the Black Knight had apparently robbed a caravan. Soon after a series of other such attacks, apparently committed by the Black Knight, King Arthur is forced to decree the once noble hero as an outlaw.
Elsewhere, Sir Guy has rallied his troops to attack Camelot disguised as the Black Knight. However when he comes to attack the castle, both Sir Guy and King Arthur and his counterforces are shocked to see the appearance of the real Black Knight. Unable to tell the real Black Knight apart from the impostor, King Arthur orders that the two settle the situation with a jousting competition. Sure enough, the real Black Knight easily bests Sir Guy and his duplicity is exposed. As the real Black Knight leaves the battlefield he tosses a rose to Lady Rosamund.

King Arthur agrees and the next day his war party is joined by the Black Knight.

Arthur, Sir Percy, Lady Rosamond and their entire party are taken prisoner and herded aboard the boat. With the capture a success the pirates leader Le Ponneau, accepts payment from Modred who orchestrated the entire surprise attack in order to remove King Arthur from the throne so he might take it. Not trusting Mordred to betray him, Le Ponneau knocks him out long enough for the pirate to flee.
Out at sea, Sir Percy pretends to grow faint from sea travel in order to struggle free and dive overboard, and is seemingly slain by the pirates arrows. However Sir Percy has survived and rushes back to Camelot, formulating a plan to save the King and the other captives along the way. Meanwhile, Mordred returns to the castle and claims to the Knights of the Round Table that he escaped capture and tells them that he vows to find the King, taking temporary control of the kingdom of Camelot in order to do so.
Soon Sir Percy arrives and tells the others that he escaped as well. Sir Percy quickly ducks out and changes into the Black Knight and meets with Merlin, who tells him that the Knights or thinly stretched out looking for the King on false leads made by Mordred. Using his magics, Merlin directs the Black Knight to the island where the pirates are keeping King Arthur and the other prisoners. With a small group of knights the Black Knight storms the island and helps free King Arthur and the others, easily defeating Le Ponneau and his minions returning them to the castle.
With the return of King Arthur, Mordred sheepishly relinquished the throne for the King, but none are the wise to the fact that Mordred was responsible for the whole ordeal. Sir Percy, knowing the truth, but with no proof, has to satisfy himself by singing a mocking song he wrote about Mordred instead.
