At Camelot, Galahad and Lancelot still boast and bash each other, and again Guinevere tasks them to best the Silent Knight... The knights arrive and fawn over Lady Celia, peeving Squire Brian (SK's secret identity). She sends the knights after a rainbow-hued flower. But left alone, she's attacked by brigands. The Silent Knight chases them off, dumps Galahad in a river, bowls Lancelot out of the saddle with a tree branch - and brings the rainbow flower to Celia!
