"Turk Flu" is the fifth episode of Season 1 of Robin Hood.
Plot[]
The gang come across the sheriff testing greek fire ("black powder") and concoct a plan to stop him from reproducing the dangerous weapon.
They rescue a cartful of Saracen slaves who are temporarily protecting themselves by pretending to be diseased. One young Turk in particular, named Djaq, helps them stop the sheriff and proves to have a good deal of knowledge of medicine and chemistry. The band allows him to join (only later discovering, via Will, that "he" is actually a "she", who has taken on the guise of her dead twin brother to protect herself).
Trivia[]
- First appearance of Djaq.
