Synopsis:
Lady Celia begins to suspect that apprentice Brian Kent is really the Silent Knight. Brian denies her suspicions, but is unable to convince her. While they are together in Forest Perilous, the couple is attacked by the Robber Baron. Brian is knocked into a stream and carried away. He returns garbed as the Silent Knight and defeats the Robber Baron. Having witnessed Brian being carried away, Celia is at last convinced that he is not the Silent Knight.
