"The Betrayal" is the eleventh episode of Season 3. The English-German translated title is "Campion's Betrayal."
Plot synopsis[]
Spartina soon gets found out by the other Watership Down rabbits (as she tries to go back to Darkhaven and is captured when Silverweed tells the others) and she confesses everything, even admitting putting Blackberry in danger. Silverweed allows Bigwig to see into Spartina's heart, but the male is frightened by her feelings for him and runs off.
Granite attempts to help Campion and Blackberry escape out of gratitude. Silverweed sees a vision involving Hannah's future whilst trying to prepare for Campion and Blackberry's arrival home, but refuses to admit it.
Hazel, Fiver, Bigwig, Hawkbit and Dandelion travel to the Darkhaven border with Spartina so she can get in and rescue Campion and Blackberry, but the Watership rabbits are forced to run when Fiver has a vision that attracts a Darkhaven patrol. Spartina tries to protect the down but Woundwort and Vervain get suspicious and find out the truth. After finding out of Spartina's betrayal, Woundwort uses her and Blackberry to make Campion confess where Watership Down is and to lead his army into battle there. Fiver has a vision on the way back to the down, confirming that Woundwort is coming and Hazel knows that the time has come to stop the enemy once and for all.
