 	Intro 	
 	Scene 	The gang imagines how Nils would have married Annette if they had lived in the Middle Ages.
 	Scene 	Samson declares that princess Annette and king Wolfried are awaiting a worthy knight to ask for the princess hand. So far, 110 knights have tried but none have been worthy so far. Pferd introduces knight Nils to the king and the three trials begin.
 	Scene 	The first trial is "riding at the ring". However, knight Nils is having difficulties with it, but Pferd manages to do it for him, so he passes the test, mainly because the king wants the princess married.
 	Scene 	The second trial is an archery contest. Pferd notices that knight Nils is pointing the bow in the wrong direction, because he only has eyes for the princess, so he moves the target so Nils can hit it and pass the second trial.
 	Scene 	The third trial is a test of strength, so knight Nils will have to lift his horse. Nils tries to lift Pferd, but ends up on the ground under Pferd. Samson says that he has never seen such a weak knight before, but king Wolfried thinks that the knight's horse is great, so he allows the princess to marry Pferd.
