“ Henry IV, Part One, ” deals with a rebellion against King Henry by his former allies. The subplot concerns the idle life led by the heir to the throne, Prince Hal, who spends his time with London's riffraff, even going so far as to join them in robbery.

The play ends with the defeat of one faction of the rebels led by Hotspur, a young man as much in love with honor and battle as Hal is with pleasure.
