The Armor of Doom!
Storyline
Evil Sir Edwin vows to capture the Silent Knight. The SK frees prisoners bound for the dungeons, and knocks down Edwin's evil guards. But at the castle, Sir Edwin has manufactured a double of the SK's armor - and orders everyone try it on. Squire Brian (SK's secret identity) fits the armor, but "clumsily" falls into the moat. He returns as the real SK and pounds Edwin's guards, then escapes. Back at the castle, another SK appears, but this time it's Lady Celia in fake armor, doffing it with a laugh!

By night, a "ghost" picks off the pirates, walks across the bog on ghost feet (aided by a zip line), and boards the ghost ship - just as a rogue wave lifts it and sails it amid the pirates!

The Secret of Sherwood Forest
Storyline
At Prince John's masquerade ball, Robin Hood poses as - Robin Hood! He sneaks into the dungeon, frees Little John, and they sword-fight to freedom. But as they enter the safety of Sherwood Forest, Prince John laughs. His trackers follow Robin and Little John everywhere, even through treetops and streams and concealed trails? How? Circling in desperation, Robin discovers glowing spots where he passed - a liquid on his clothes, put there by a courtier, leaves a glowing trail. Outfoxing Prince John, he leads the trackers in circles and drops a hornets' nest on them!
