In "First Knight," a subplot involves the relationship between King Arthur and Guinevere, as well as the conflict that arises with Lancelot's arrival. This subplot adds complexity to the main storyline of the film centered on King Arthur's struggle to maintain his kingdom amidst betrayal and love.
There is conflict between them because a) Lancelot killed Tarquine's brother b) Tarquine was holding many fellow knights of Lancelot as prisoners in his castle (after beating them) c) As a knight, Lancelot couldn't back down from the challenge or quest so he honorably fought because it was his duty. They resolve the conflict by a joust. Tarquine didn't realize at first Lancelot was Lancelot so he offers to let each go their separate ways. When he found out he was though, Tarquine said they'd have to fight to their death. After much combat, Lancelot defeats Tarquine and kills him. Lancelot's a pretty cool guy. ;))
