Quest of the Delta Knights is a 1993 Direct to Video fantasy/adventure sword and sorcery film wholly lacking in sorcery. It's another one of those movies that wouldn't have a page on this wiki were it not for Mystery Science Theater 3000.The plot concerns a young boy named Travis (nicknamed "Tee"), who is sold into slavery after he is orphaned in an attack on a caravan. Tee is bought by Baydool (David Warner), a beggar who is secretly a spy for the Order of the Delta Knights. This underground society is dedicated to knowledge, justice, eradicating evil; the usual heroic stuff. Baydool makes Tee his apprentice as he covertly opposes the dastardly Lord Vultare (also Warner), who is looking for the fabled Lost Storehouse of Archimedes, rumored to contain all manner of Lost Technology that would allow their wielder to Take Over the World.The duo infiltrate Vultare's castle to gain access to a map leading to the storehouse, but afterward Baydool is captured, and Tee's attempt to rescue his mentor ends badly. Tee sets off to find the Storehouse before Vultare can, joining forces with Leonardo da Vinci, who is also a member of the Order, and a serving wench named Thena. Along the way they have a few scrapes with Vultare's forces, Leo hits on and gets hit by the girl, the party gets captured by a disturbingly merry band of masked bandits, and it turns out Thena is a princess.In the end, they find the Storehouse, but it turns out Vultare's been following them the whole time! Fortunately the villain gets Distracted by the Shiny artifacts and zaps himself to death, and Tee blows up the Storehouse, reasoning that mankind is not yet ready for its secrets. But Leonardo rips off most of the gadgets inside of it, so it isn't a total loss. The end.As far as movies riffed on by Mystery Science Theater 3000 go, this isn't one of the worst but also not one of the best. It's at least watchable and usually fairly fun, but also notably confusing and nebulous, especially with regards to its temporal and physical setting. The structure for this particular MST3K experiment is iconic, and the recap can be found here.Also, several viewers have noticed that the first act ("mute" orphan slave is bought for an insultingly low sum, freed, and adopted by a "crippled" beggar who is a spy for a secret organization) is essentially Robert A. Heinlein's Citizen of the Galaxy Recycled in Medieval Europe. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Quest of the Delta Knights / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: And how! The extras were workers and patrons of a local Renaissance Faire who provided their own costumes. So some Mooks wear horned Viking helmets, others wear armor, while still others dress like pirates and sultans. Archimedes' notebook, which becomes the foundation of the Order, is bound with ancient staples. And as mentioned earlier, Tee uses bombs to bring down the Storehouse, and also has a crude pistol (though to be fair, gunpowder weapons had been present in Europe since the 14th century). Tee's gender neutral parent thing tries to assault Vultare with a sai. | |

| Quest of the Delta Knights / int_6bcfbc7e | comment |
Fantasy Gun Control: Averted. One of Vultaire's raiders at the start of the film is shown dramatically shooting his flintlock pistol at the caravan, and Tee receives a crude, friction-firing "handgonne" from Baydool that comes in handy when his party is attacked at their camp (and somehow fires off more than one shot in far less time than it should conceivably take to reload). | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! | |
| Quest of the Delta Knights / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Baydool, before being arrested, sends Tee away and later has someone contact him to tell him to leave him behind as the mission is more important. Tee decides to try and break him out of prison anyway... alerting every single guard in the prison along the way, getting Baydool shot in the leg, too injured to finish escaping, then eventually killed after being executed on the spot by Vultare who might not have actually been planning on killing him until the escape. Lampshaded in the MST3K edit: Tee repeatedly fails to prevent Vultare from just following him to important locations, which ultimately leads to Vultare reaching the storehouse the entire Delta Knights order had been trying to find and claiming everything inside. This just leads to both Tee and Vultare blowing it to pieces and depriving the order of the one thing they'd been seeking for hundreds of years. | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield?: Here's everything the audience knows about where the story is set: Tee is from England, but it's not the setting. Leonardo da Vinci is there, but it's not Italy. Archimedes kept a storehouse full of his work there, but it's not Sicily. It's ruled by a Mannerjay (not a real world title). It's the dark ages. England is to the North. That's basically it. | |

Red Baron: By his own account, Vultare has many nicknames along these lines, such as the Scourge of Iberia and the Panther of the Pyrenees. | |

I Did What I Had to Do: Thena. Spelled out by her brother, who says that no matter what she had to do as a serving wench, she did it to survive and that she was always a princess nonetheless. | |

Big "NO!": There's one from Travis at the beginning as his family is killed, but we only see him mouth the word as the sound is removed for drama. | |

Dude Looks Like a Lady: Tee's disguise involves a long, flowing hairpiece that makes him look like a girl. It's not Disguised in Drag, though, because it wasn't intentional. | |

| Quest of the Delta Knights / int_cedeae6a | comment |
Wacky Wayside Tribe: The plot temporarily redirects when the heroes run into the forest people, but otherwise has little bearing on the plot. Even when Thena returns, she doesn't have anyone with her and she's not dressed as a princess anymore. Also, Vultare does not run into the forest people at all while following the trail of the heroes. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Quest of the Delta Knights / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: Leonardo openly calls out Tee's decision to destroy the lost storehouse of Archimedes, and especially pointing out that he had no right to do so. Tee simply claims The World Is Not Ready and Archimedes gave him the right. Amusingly, unknown to both his actions were irrelevant since Vultare managed to blow it up independently. | |

Unusual Euphemism: Wamthool is described as the Mannerjay's "merlin", with King Arthur's own Merlin having apparently become the standardized word for a court wizard in this setting. | |

Artistic License – Geography: Everyone's speaking English, but "Vultare" sounds vaguely French, Leonardo da Vinci is hanging around, and supposedly Archimedes of Syracuse has a storehouse nearby. England is apparently due north. | |

| Quest of the Delta Knights / int_f6dc47f7 | comment |
Ambiguously Related: When Baydool is dying, he and Tee refer to each other as father and son. It seems to come out of nowhere and is usually interpreted as metaphorical. However, Baydool shows that he also has Tee's Danger Sense on two occasions. First, shortly after solving the riddle about how Tee's father felt and realizing his destiny, and then when he's about to die and the two exchange that dialogue. That power, and the scenes it comes up in, heavily imply that there is a connection after all. | |

Shown Their Work | |
| Quest of the Delta Knights / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
Shown Their Work: One of the soldiers has a flintlock pistol. While uncommon and crude, guns did exist in the medieval age. No matter how inaccurate the rest of the movie is, the writers did get some facts on Archimedes right, notably how he reflected the sun's light as a weapon and the basic circumstances of his death. They also knew that Leonardo da Vinci was called that because he really was from Vinci, rather than treating it as his surname (he didn't have onenote His full title was "Da Vinci, di Ser Piero", but taking this to be his surname would be akin to saying the Biblical disciple Joseph's last name was "of Arimathea" and Aragorn's last name was "son of Arathorn"). The Mannerjay also refers to the ruler of "Cathay", an antiquated, Anglicized name for what is today called China. | |
