I'll absolutely agree that Robin should have apologized for this whole confrontation later--after they left Nottingham and the emergency was over, but I'm afraid Robin just wasn't given a chance--the series ended! Yes, it would have been nice to see something of the sort, but outside of exchanging a few words in Lockley, Robin doesn't even have a moment with Much.
But don't forget that before it is over, Robin has saved Much's life. There's a weird symmetry here. Robin is threatened with Much's murder in ep 1 (guards are going t throw him from the battlements) and in ep 13 (Vaysey holds a knife to his throat), and in both cases, Robin's dramatic save wins the day. In ep 13, we can be quite sure that after having his life saved, Much is fully satisfied that Robin didn't mean what he said.
I'm not sure Much needs the verbal apology as much as we women think we do.
