Squire Brian trains hard, but can't look too good or Lady Celia will suspect he's secretly the Silent Knight... At Camelot, the Knights of Round Table still argue who's the best knight. Merlin conceives a plot... Word comes to the Forest Perilous that the Round Table has fallen asleep and can't be woken! The Silent Knight arrives to blow the trumpet, but it was filled with sand while the knights feigned sleep. Caught, the SK challenges both Lancelot and Galahad to fight. Using the two opponents against each other, he dodges their blows and rides home - to Lady Celia.
