00:11Oh, Mr. Barrow, you're back.
00:13I'm afraid you've missed our luncheon, but you're in time to help upstairs.
00:17Maybe there's something left.
00:18Don't bother. I'm not hungry.
00:20Charming as ever, I seem.
00:21How's your father doing?
00:23Ah, much better, as it happens.
00:25In fact, he's quite well again.
00:26That's good news.
00:27Yes, it is.
00:31You remember we're meeting Mr. Wavell at three, up his corner?
00:34Very clearly, but I don't see the point in it, since I'm not going to agree.
00:37He's driven all the way from Leeds.
00:38I had a letter from your father.
00:40He says he's in London for a visit.
00:42Shrimpy's in England.
00:43Have you made any plans to see him?
00:45Not yet.
00:46He wonders if you might let him stay here.
00:48Of course, whenever he wants.
00:50Is Susan with him?
00:51No.
00:52Their time's up soon, and she can face a voyage twice in less than a year.
00:55Where will they send him, do you think, after Bombay?
01:00How are your Russians getting on?
01:03It's so sad.
01:04They talk about the old days.
01:06Dancers at the Winter Palace.
01:08Picnics on the banks of the Neva.
01:09But there are holes in their shoes, and they've got no money for food.
01:13This is where Tom says it serves them right.
01:15You're corrected on to prove how things were managed in Russia.
01:18But I'm still sorry for people who have to make a new life in a foreign land from scratch.
01:21Honestly, Papa, every time you challenge Tom, you sound much more unreasonable than he is.
01:26Do I?
01:27How is your old beau managing, Mama?
01:29Prince thingamajig.
01:31He's not my old beau.
01:33Your father would have called out any man who said such a thing.
01:36Even so, I do hope you see him again.
01:38Poor old boy.
01:41You don't know anything about it.
01:46How far would the houses stretch?
01:48Well, the whole field, really.
01:51But why can't they be built in a row like the other streets?
01:54They sell more quickly as separate dwellings.
01:56And we get a percentage of the sales.
01:58So, we're paid once, and in return, the field is lost, the village is spoiled,
02:02and Mr. Wavell moves on in search of his next victim.
02:14Why didn't you tell them we were coming here today?
02:17Well, I didn't...
02:18You'll find out as soon as Rose gets home.
02:19We'd want to be a topic for the rest of luncheon.
02:22But what are we here for?
02:24Well, something's been troubling me.
02:27Oh, why on earth didn't we get a taxi from the station?
02:31We must be mad.
02:33Oh, we'll get a taxi, Helen.
02:34That's the truth.
02:35Say it's in the crypt.
02:42Oh, Isabel, I didn't think it would be like this.
02:46No, neither did I.
02:58Ah, Aunt Pilate!
03:01Mrs. Crawley, you never said you were coming.
03:03We wanted to surprise you.
03:04Oh, you've succeeded.
03:08Oh, there he is.
03:12I must be the last person you expected to see.
03:15No, I thought you would come.
03:19I brought my cousin, Mrs. Crawley.
03:23Do you remember Rostov?
03:25Count Rostov, I think.
03:28Yes.
03:29Please, ladies.
03:30Please.
03:33I'm sorry, I...
03:36I didn't say very much.
03:39Thank you, at downturn, but I was...
03:41I was so surprised.
03:45You haven't changed.
03:47I have.
03:48It's true.
03:50Then you were the young and beautiful Countess of Grantham,
03:54turning eyes in a ballroom or out in your carriage.
03:58Now you are the great lady, imperious, magnificent.
04:04But these are two sides of the same coin.
04:07Your life has not much altered in half a century.
04:11It doesn't seem so to me.
04:13Whereas the handsome and powerful Prince Kouragin,
04:18with his thousands of acres and his golden palaces,
04:23that man does not exist.
04:26Not anymore.
04:28Oh, Mr. Molesley, I put out some silver to be cleaned.
04:32I'd be grateful if you could see to it.
04:34Very good, Mr. Carlson.
04:35I was looking for Mr. Barrow.
04:37He's gone out.
04:38Precisely.
04:39But then I thought, no, this is down to Mr. Molesley.
04:42After all, he is the first footman.
04:54I've thought a good deal about what you said the other day
04:59when I asked after the princess.
05:01That I don't know how or where she is.
05:04It's true.
05:07We were arrested together.
05:10You know, when I came out of prison,
05:13I heard she'd been exiled a year earlier.
05:16There must be someone in authority who...
05:18Who?
05:19The Soviet ambassador?
05:21Do you think he cares
05:23where Princess Irina Kouragin is presently lodged?
05:26Well, what about the Foreign Office?
05:28Do they help the losing side in any revolution?
05:31No.
05:32You mustn't give up hope.
05:33When you go through a storm like ours,
05:36you give up hope quite early on in the proceedings.
05:40I agree.
05:41Hope is a tease
05:43designed to prevent us accepting reality.
05:46Oh, you only say that to sound clever.
05:49I know.
05:50You should try it.
05:58I want to call on the blacksmith.
06:00I'll see you back at the house.
06:06Mrs. Padmore?
06:08Good afternoon, my lord.
06:09My lady.
06:13I wish I knew what that was about.
06:15And why the funny look
06:16when I asked after Shrimpy at lunch?
06:18I suspect he's come to tell Rose
06:21they're getting a divorce.
06:22Are you serious?
06:23I'm afraid so.
06:25He's hinted at it in his letters, apparently,
06:27and I gather things have not been improving.
06:29That's the end of his career.
06:30You've said yourself
06:31the Marlboros have survived divorce.
06:33The Marlboros are very rich.
06:35Shrimpy hasn't got a bean.
06:37People will drop them like hot potatoes.
06:39Will we drop Shrimpy?
06:41Susan's your cousin, not him.
06:43No, I won't take sides.
06:44Whatever Susan wants.
06:54Would you give me a hand with these?
06:58What are you leaving?
07:00Lady Mary wants to get the eight o'clock.
07:01She's going to redress Jill
07:02with Lady Rosamund in the afternoon.
07:05I'll miss you.
07:06So I should help?
07:09Are you all right?
07:10I hope you haven't let the sergeant worry you.
07:12No, he doesn't worry me.
07:16I just wish we could all forget about Mr. Green.
07:23Why did you want me to go with you today?
07:27Oh, it's just in case things aren't mawkish.
07:32I'd prevent Lord Merton saying anything to embarrass you.
07:35I wanted the same protection myself.
07:37I presume that you and Prince Karagin
07:39were once attracted to each other.
07:42So attracted to each other?
07:44Is that what you call it?
07:47As it happens,
07:49he asked me to run away with him.
07:51But you didn't go?
07:53No, Lord Grantham gave me a frame
07:55by Fabergé
07:56with two pictures of the children in it.
07:59And I saw sense.
08:01Lord Grantham sounds rather more subtle
08:02than I'd realised.
08:04Like all Englishmen of his type,
08:06he hid his qualities
08:07beneath a thick blanket of convention.
08:10So I didn't see
08:12who he really was at first.
08:14It was lucky you found out in time.
08:17If it was in time.
08:20I forget.
08:22Daisy!
08:23Will you put those ballet books away
08:25and come and help?
08:26And where are the pastry casings
08:27for the first course?
08:28I'll make them now.
08:29Well, you should have made them before.
08:30What is all that?
08:31I'm studying the Glorious Revolution of 1688.
08:34Well, there'll be a Glorious Revolution down here
08:35if you don't watch it.
08:37Did you hear that in there?
08:39I mean, mathematics is one thing.
08:40She's studying to be a revolutionary now.
08:42Well, I hope there's no cooking going on up in your room.
08:47I should find out what he's up to.
08:49I'm sure it's nothing.
09:10Good morning.
09:14Oh, I, uh, well, that is, uh, you're here.
09:20Well, hadn't you been to come in?
09:27Well, how can I help?
09:37I nearly flunked it, but I've put it off so many times.
09:41And as I was sitting all alone at luncheon today, I just thought, no, I'm jolly well going over there
09:47to say it.
09:48I do hope this won't be something you'll regret.
09:50You may regret it. I won't.
09:57Very well, I'm listening.
10:00I really should go down on one knee, but I fear I'd never get up again.
10:06I'm sure you realise by now.
10:09I'm asking for your hand in marriage.
10:12Dear Lord Merton, you see...
10:14Please. Please.
10:18I want to be quite clear.
10:21I'm not speaking out of loneliness, or with a view to my comfort.
10:25I'm sure.
10:26No, you're not.
10:29When men of my age marry, that's usually the reason.
10:33But my proposal is a romantic one.
10:35I state freely and proudly, Isabel, that I've fallen in love with you.
10:40And I want to spend what remains of my life in your company.
10:44I believe I could make you happy.
10:46At any rate, I should very much like the chance to try.
10:52Well, goodness, Lord Merton.
10:56I freely admit you've taken me by surprise.
11:00Not with your proposal, but with your talk of love.
11:06I mean it.
11:09And before you refuse me, I'd like to ask you to leave it on the table, so to speak.
11:15Say nothing for the time being.
11:17Just think about it.
11:19I'm not sure it would change my answer.
11:22But after such eloquence, to refuse your request would seem ungenerous.
11:30I will think about it.
11:35Well, I think I'll take my leave.
11:39I suspect ordinary conversation would be difficult after that.
11:53What do you mean, that man Bricker is coming back? Why?
11:56That man Bricker, what's he done to deserve such a welcome?
11:59Hasn't he seen what he came to see?
12:00He wants to investigate a possible link between our picture and a later work by Della Francesca.
12:05Shrimpy is coming this week.
12:07Well, then he and Mr. Bricker will get to know each other, won't they?
12:12Edith, darling, why so glum?
12:14I'm not glum, am I?
12:16How's your prodigy child?
12:19I haven't seen her for a while.
12:21I was getting rather under their feet, so I thought I'd give them a rest.
12:24I knew that would happen.
12:26Why don't you leave it for a few months?
12:28A few months?
12:29I should.
12:30Then they'll be pleased to see you when you do go back.
12:33Any more thoughts on Pip's Corner?
12:35I'd love to understand the merits of the argument.
12:37You want us to do it, don't you?
12:39Well, it's a lump of capital with no only.
12:40We have to consider it.
12:41Consider it, yes, but it's complex.
12:44Do we really want to start breaking bits off the estate and selling them piecemeal?
12:47You were the one who wanted to sell land when Matthew died.
12:50And I was wrong.
12:51I didn't see then how many owners would chip away at their land until there was nothing viable left.
12:55Anyway, we can talk about it tomorrow.
12:57Not me.
12:58I'm going up to London first thing.
13:00Aunt Rosamund's taking me to a dress show.
13:01It's good to know you've got your priorities straight.
13:13Hello?
13:14Who's in there?
13:17Please let me know who's in there.
13:19Go away!
13:21Mr Barrow?
13:23Would you like me to fetch a man to help you?
13:28Mr Barrow?
13:31What, man?
13:33Why isn't a man in this house who'd help me?
13:37What's the matter with you?
13:40This mind's a wrong business.
13:49Now, you're sure there's no big evening event?
13:51No, and we're only there one night.
13:53When are you seeing his lordship?
13:55Friday morning, before we catch the train home.
13:59It's right to do it face to face.
14:01But of course I'm dreading it.
14:02It's right to do it face to face.
14:32I'm going to ask you something.
14:34Is Mrs Padmore quite happy?
14:36I'm afraid there is a particular matter that has upset her, my lord.
14:40May I know what it is?
14:43Why make him wait?
14:45You mean I must refuse him now?
14:47Well, you said yourself the whole idea was ridiculous.
14:51Yes, but I can only tell you when it came to it, he was not ridiculous.
14:57You surprise me.
14:58One kind word and your judgment takes flight.
15:02Surely Prince Karagin has reminded you what one kind word can do.
15:07He's asked me to think about it.
15:11And I will think about it.
15:16It was Michael's office on the telephone.
15:18There's been a development.
15:21Apparently there's a trial going on in Munich of the leader of a group of thugs there.
15:27I've read about this.
15:28They wear brown shirts and go around bullying people.
15:31The leader tried to start a revolution last year.
15:33That's it.
15:34It was absurd.
15:35It may be, but I'm afraid we're going to see a lot more of this sort of thing.
15:39We pushed Germany too hard with our demands after the war.
15:42It seems it was this gang that got into a fight with Michael.
15:46I can easily believe it.
15:48There are a horrid blunts from the sound of it.
15:49Yes, but we might be close to finding out what happened to him.
15:53That's why his office telephoned.
16:00It will be very hard for you, my darling, but I promise it's better to know the truth
16:07than to live in a cloud of mystery and despair.
16:11But as long as I don't know for sure, then in a way I'm keeping him alive.
16:16I hate to let go of that.
16:20Can you keep this to yourself, Papa, until we're told for certain?
16:26I don't want to put up with Mary's pity any longer than I have to.
16:29She will pity you.
16:32And God knows, so do I.
16:39Fearfully late.
16:41Where are my gloves?
16:43Don't worry.
16:43It will all be unpacked and ship-shaped before you get back.
16:46You're a dream.
16:47I must run.
16:48Oh, wait a minute.
16:50Could you post this?
16:52Or give it to Mead if he hasn't emptied the box in the hall?
16:55I never said where to meet me, and Kensington Gardens would be nice and neutral.
16:59I thought about dining with him tonight, but midday seemed more appropriate for bad news.
17:04Very good, my lady.
17:24But how's Edith getting on?
17:26Actually, she's rather gloomy at the moment.
17:29Do we know why?
17:30She's taken an interest in a child of one of the tenants, but now the parents are sick of her.
17:35And why this child in particular?
17:37I don't know.
17:39She took a fancy to it.
17:40Now she seems to have overplayed her hand.
17:42Golly.
17:43That'd be his thought.
17:45So tell me more about this farmer and his little girl.
17:48How did you know it was a girl?
17:49Well, you must have said.
17:51He looks after the pigs.
17:53Oh, yummy.
17:57Good heavens, there's Charles Blake.
17:59What is he doing here?
18:02How did he do?
18:37Excuse me, is this right for Lord Gillingham?
18:40That doorway, first floor.
19:08Nice to see you.
19:09Are you shopping for your trousseau?
19:11Aha.
19:12Oh, I think you know Lady Mary Crawley, Miss Lane Fox.
19:16Oops.
19:17Suddenly remember the significance.
19:19Try not to be an ass, Charles.
19:21Well, we don't know each other exactly, but we certainly know of each other, don't we?
19:26It's not often you meet the woman you were jilted for.
19:28Well, I...
19:29Don't worry.
19:29I wouldn't want a man who preferred someone else.
19:31You're welcome to him.
19:32You're quite over him, then.
19:33Absolutely.
19:35No, I must go.
19:35I'm meeting Ralph Carr later.
19:37He's very tetchy.
19:38He's kept waiting.
19:41I thought you knew each other.
19:43No.
19:44And I must say, she wasn't at all what I imagined.
19:46What was that?
19:48I don't know.
19:49Someone meeker and more virtuous.
19:51I don't think Mabel's very meek.
19:53No.
19:53Obviously not.
19:55How long are you in London?
19:57I go home tomorrow.
19:58I'll see Tony in the morning and catch the train in the afternoon.
20:01Why?
20:01What are you doing tonight?
20:02Nothing.
20:03Then why not have dinner with me?
20:04Don't you have plans?
20:05None that I want to honor.
20:07I'll come for you at eight.
20:08No, we're too swanky.
20:09I haven't bought the right clothes.
20:42What do you remember?
20:43Mrs. Patmore, his lordship is asking for you to come out to the library.
20:47Please.
20:47Oh, my heaven.
20:48Not now.
20:49Oh, Lord.
20:50You look fine.
20:51Give me your apron.
20:52Mr. Molesley, just the man.
20:54Can you cast your eye over the dining table?
20:56I won't have time before dinner and you're the first footman.
20:59I was just going to...
21:00While you're up there, could you check the bedrooms for Lord Flincher and Mr. Bricker?
21:04I have got a moment.
21:05And as Mr. Carson says, you are the first footman.
21:07Right.
21:08I'm ready.
21:12Go on then, Mr. Molesley.
21:15It doesn't seem quite fair.
21:16You wanted to be first footman.
21:18What did you think?
21:19That you'd spend all day with your feet up?
21:28I thought I'd pop in and see how Marigold's getting on.
21:32I'm afraid I'm just taking her up for a rest, my lady.
21:35They've been playing outside and she's tired.
21:38Does she have to go up right away?
21:39I think so, yes, my lady.
21:56The trouble is Margie thinks you're unsettling the child.
22:07There are laws that govern the whole business of war memorials.
22:10So Mr. Carson's told me, my lord.
22:12I appreciate how distressing this is for you and your family.
22:15Do you, my lord?
22:17Because I'm not sure Mr. Carson does.
22:19Carson is as sorry about it as I am, aren't you, Carson?
22:23I'm sorry that Mrs. Patmore should be distressed, my lord.
22:26But you're not sorry Archie's name's to be left off the memorial.
22:30You volunteered.
22:32He didn't wait to be called up.
22:34He went to the front to fight.
22:36And as for his so-called cowardice,
22:39that were like a wound in battle, a wound to his brain.
22:43So he didn't know what he was doing.
22:45He were a good and decent lad.
22:47Of course he was.
22:48But doesn't that make him a casualty of war, my lord?
22:51Same as our William or any of them.
22:54He could have stayed here safe and well until they came for him.
22:57But instead he chose to fight for his country.
23:01It may surprise you to learn, Mrs. Patmore,
23:03but I agree with you,
23:05even though I can do nothing about it.
23:07It's not helpful, but I do.
23:09No, it is helpful.
23:11It helps to think that decent folk can see our Archie was a victim.
23:15Even if Mr. Carson can't.
23:20Thank you, Carson.
23:24When does Shrimpy get here and your ghastly art dealer?
23:28They're both on the same train and the car's going to meet them
23:30so they'll have lots of time to change.
23:32And he isn't a dealer.
23:32He's a historian.
23:34Is he indeed?
23:35Lawks of mercy.
23:37I wish I knew why he was coming.
23:39He wants to discuss the painting.
23:41With you?
23:42Yes.
23:43Is that so shocking?
23:45I'd better get on.
23:52Mr. Molesley,
23:53I've not been told whether Lord Flincher and Mr. Bricker
23:56will be bringing valets.
23:57Could you make it your business to see they're properly attended?
24:00I've got a lot on my plate, Mr. Carson.
24:02I'm sorry, Mr. Molesley, but you are...
24:04Yes, I know, I know.
24:05I'm the first footman.
24:10So you're happy?
24:13Well, I'm not delirious, but who is?
24:16I have a pretty good life.
24:17Well, I'm glad.
24:21I was never the type to die of a broken heart, you know.
24:24I'm sorry if that offends you.
24:26On the contrary.
24:28I only hope Tony feels the same.
24:32Goodness.
24:32I wasn't expecting that.
24:39I wish I could work you out.
24:41I wish I could work me out.
24:46When will you tell him?
24:48Tomorrow.
24:49I'm meeting him at noon.
24:51By the Peter Pan statue in Kensington Gardens.
24:54Crumbs.
24:54Won't the setting make him dream of happy families?
24:56Well, it's too late to change it now.
24:58What's he done wrong?
25:00Nothing.
25:02I'm very fond of him.
25:03I'll always be fond of him.
25:07I want him to be the godfather of my children, just not their father.
25:12How will you take it?
25:14Not as well as you.
25:19Well, you've got a way to soften the blow.
25:21If you want to.
25:23I don't see how.
25:24Don't you?
25:28You seem a little subdued tonight.
25:31Do I, Granny?
25:32How strange.
25:33I wonder why.
25:34I know it sounds hard.
25:36But you must learn to leave things behind.
25:39I suppose you mean I'm to leave Michael behind now.
25:42Well, as you've already made it quite clear, I'm to leave the baby behind.
25:45I would never suggest anything that is not in your interest.
25:49In my interest?
25:50Or the family's?
25:52To me, they are the same.
25:54And that is where we differ.
25:59I've been thinking about your missing person.
26:01Oh, I don't want to be a nuisance.
26:04But aren't their departments devoted to finding people who are lost?
26:09Alas, they're not at my command.
26:10And the Russians who were driven out have spread to the four corners of the earth.
26:14Who is this woman?
26:15An old friend of yours?
26:17She's the wife of an old friend.
26:20Oh, just see what you can do, shrimpy.
26:23Aunt Violet.
26:24If I can still call you Aunt Violet.
26:27I ought to warn you about something.
26:29I can guess what it is.
26:30You won't approve.
26:32No, I don't.
26:33You may even feel the need to take sides.
26:35Susan is your niece.
26:37Well, I think you're making a serious mistake.
26:39But you may rest easy on that score.
26:42I never take sides in a broken marriage.
26:44Why is that?
26:46Because however much the couple may strive, to be honest, no one is ever in possession of the facts.
26:53Are you in a hurry to leave tomorrow?
26:55Not at all.
26:56In fact, at the risk of being a burden, I thought I might stay another night.
27:00What time are you off tomorrow?
27:01He's staying for a couple of days.
27:03Is he?
27:04Well, I hope we've got enough here to amuse you.
27:10Come into the library.
27:11Excuse me.
27:13Why not invite Miss Bunting to dinner tomorrow night?
27:16Mary will be back.
27:17We'll be quite a party.
27:18Edith, persuade him.
27:20I don't think Papaya would think it a very good idea.
27:22What's this?
27:22I wanted Tom to invite Miss Bunting to dinner tomorrow.
27:25But Edith says Robert won't allow it.
27:27Nonsense.
27:28Of course you must bring her if you like.
27:29I insist.
27:33So you've enjoyed Bombay for the most part?
27:35Oh, yes.
27:36It's a wonderful city.
27:37Gateway to the glories of the East.
27:39I felt very privileged.
27:43I gather things have not improved with Susan.
27:46No.
27:48The times I blessed you and Corr for keeping Rose out of it.
27:51What happens now?
27:54Divorce, I'm afraid.
27:55I can't see any other way.
27:56But, my dear chap, is it worth it?
27:59Why can't you just live apart?
28:02If you'd ever been as unhappy as I am,
28:05you'd know why not.
28:12Has Walter gone to bed?
28:14Yes.
28:15Why?
28:16Mrs Patmore needs two more chafing dishes first thing tomorrow.
28:20You can tell him in the morning.
28:23You're not so Pally now, are you?
28:25Why are you still up?
28:28I just want to get this finished.
28:32Your father was never ill, was he?
28:35I'm sorry?
28:37Are you the one who's ill?
28:38Is that it?
28:38Is that why you went away?
28:42What's it to do for you?
28:44I'm right, aren't I?
28:45You're the one who's ill.
28:46You went away to be treated.
28:47Now you're trying to carry on with the treatment yourself.
28:50Yeah, well, it has nothing to do with you, so just leave me alone.
28:56Robert asked why we couldn't stay together for the look of the thing.
28:59I hope you see that we can't.
29:01But, Daddy, where are you going to live?
29:04Your mother will keep up at Brook Street.
29:06I'm not sure where I'm going to go yet, but I'll find something.
29:09How can I live with you?
29:11To be honest, I think you should stay here for a while.
29:14The next part could be quite unpleasant.
29:17I'm learning from it, though.
29:19I don't care how eligible some chap may be, I'm not going to be bullied.
29:23Fighting talk.
29:25I mean it.
29:27You all think that now I'm officially out and everything, it's time to find my man.
29:30But I'm only going to marry if I am totally, absolutely in love.
29:36Of course.
29:38When I find him, will you promise to be on my side?
29:42I promise you won't try to force me into a suitable marriage like you were forced.
29:46In other words, you're asking for a blank check.
29:49Yes.
29:51That's just what I want.
29:53Oh, my dearest one.
29:55On the subject of marriage, I have no right to give advice.
29:59Let alone orders.
30:05You must make haste to reach Dieppe, where you are to seek out a Mr. Avebury.
30:11He will arrange for you to be taken aboard a packet and convey to safety, but do not delay, if
30:17you hold your mother dear.
30:18Poor woman.
30:20I know how she felt.
30:22As for your collection, Mr. Avebury will do what he can, but I'd rather every canvas or carving were tossed
30:29in the sea to your being one extra hour in that unhappy country.
30:36I'm glad he didn't take her advice.
30:38He did not.
30:39He brought crates and crates over, then went back after the reign of terror to buy more.
30:45You have preserved them safely in this beautiful place.
30:48Glad you think it's beautiful.
30:49I think everything about Downton is beautiful, including its mistress.
30:53You mustn't say such things.
30:55I have to, or I'll burst.
30:57What's burst?
30:59I was just saying that being allowed to touch a painting like this would make me burst.
31:06It's wonderful to show you something so appreciative.
31:08Yes.
31:09No one can say you're not appreciative, Mr. Bricker.
31:20I can't be hearing this correctly.
31:22I'm afraid you are.
31:23So you sleep with the man.
31:25Because he wants to marry you.
31:26But now you change your mind.
31:28It's insane.
31:29I'm sorry if you think so.
31:31Well, I won't let it happen.
31:32I love you and you love me.
31:33Well, at least you told me so when we were in Liverpool.
31:35I know, and I thought I meant it.
31:37Well, what's changed?
31:38I can't explain exactly, but something has, that's all.
31:41Am I a bad lover?
31:42Is that it?
31:43Is that what you were trying to tell me?
31:44Don't be silly.
31:44It's not that at all.
31:46It's just I feel I've sort of woken up out of a dream.
31:50How flattering.
31:51We go to bed together and you wake up.
31:53I'm just not sure we have enough in common.
31:55To make it go as that was...
31:56Well, I refuse to accept it.
31:57I refuse to believe that a woman like you, a lady, could give herself to a man without
32:01first being certain that he was the one.
32:03So what are you saying?
32:05Simply that this is something that we've got to get through.
32:07And we will.
32:07We will get through this together.
32:21Mr. Moulsley.
32:22You wanted to see me?
32:24Only to say that I'm not sure I should be called the first footman after all, Mr. Carlson.
32:30Are you not?
32:31No.
32:32Well, it's not like the old days, is it?
32:34I mean, the duties of the first footman are shared between a lot of people now, aren't
32:39they?
32:40Are they?
32:40Well, they should be.
32:42Because I've got the duties of the second footman and third footman and all to deal with.
32:46So you don't feel you need the precedence that the title first footman confers?
32:54Well, not really, no.
32:55Well, very well.
32:58I'll see what I can do.
33:09I wasn't sure you'd want to come.
33:11Nonsense.
33:12I'm flattered to be asked.
33:14I didn't think I would be again.
33:16Not after last time.
33:18Try to be nice to him tonight.
33:21I will be.
33:23He's nice to me.
33:24I know you don't like him.
33:26Or any of them, much.
33:28But you forget one thing.
33:29They are good to me in their way.
33:32And I love them.
33:40Just to realise that you're more than a retainer.
33:42I can't bear for you to waste your life propping up a system that's dying.
33:48Well, it won't die before dinner.
33:53Someone's dropped this in the passage, the London magazine.
33:56Does it belong to any of you?
33:57Mr. Barrow was reading it earlier.
33:59Would you give it to him when he comes down, Miss Baxter?
34:01Of course.
34:14Where did you get this?
34:17Have you been in my room?
34:18Of course not.
34:19You dropped it in the passage where Mrs. Hughes found it.
34:21Mrs. Hughes found it.
34:22But Miss Baxter read it.
34:24I'm sorry for what you've put yourself through, if what I think is correct.
34:27Don't you pity me.
34:30Don't you dare pity me.
34:35Did you bring those photographs of Della Ventures for his nativity?
34:38I certainly did.
34:40We can compare them to the painting tomorrow.
34:42It would be so lovely if it does turn out to be a study for it.
34:46Yes.
34:46It would be absolutely lovely.
34:48Mr. Bricker, one more word and I want to ask you to sit somewhere else.
34:52He flatters her.
34:53He keeps asking her opinion on everything.
34:56Well, don't you ever ask her opinion?
34:58Of course I do.
34:59Sometimes.
35:00Did you have a good time in London?
35:02Quite good.
35:03I set myself rather a difficult task.
35:05And it's always a relief when it's done.
35:07Isn't it?
35:10How are your lessons going?
35:12What's this?
35:13Miss Bunting is giving instruction to Mrs. Patmore's undercook.
35:17Oh, yes.
35:17I heard about that.
35:18You sound as if you don't approve.
35:20I approve.
35:21As long as you're not making her unsettled.
35:25You don't know her name, do you?
35:27Sarah, please.
35:29Of course he does.
35:30Daisy.
35:34Well, he knows it now.
35:36I knew it before.
35:37And from what I've been told, it sounds as if you're upsetting her and Mrs. Patmore.
35:40I think you should drop this.
35:43Why don't you send for her?
35:45Bring Daisy in and ask her yourself.
35:47I'm sure she's too busy.
35:48I doubt she's too busy to answer a summons from you.
35:50We don't want to embarrass her.
35:53Carson?
35:54This is the busiest time of the day, my lord.
35:58Maybe it'd be better...
35:59No.
36:00Fetch her.
36:01And ask Mrs. Patmore to come up as well.
36:05Very good, my lord.
36:11Your father may regret this.
36:19I wondered if you wanted a hand.
36:20Almost done.
36:21You could put the cases away if you've a mind.
36:26Did you enjoy yourself?
36:27We weren't there long enough.
36:30I went to deliver a letter to Lord Gillingham in Albany.
36:33Oh, yes.
36:35Then I walked into Piccadilly.
36:37Is Lordship's lucky to live there?
36:40Do you recall Mr. Green saying that?
36:42Saying what?
36:43Jimmy heard where he lived and called him a lucky tyke.
36:46He wasn't very lucky in the end, though, was he?
36:50No, he wasn't lucky in the end.
36:52Right.
36:53I'll take these up to the luggage room.
37:09Is something wrong with the dinner, my lord?
37:11Not at all.
37:12No, we apologise, Mrs. Patmore, for interfering with your duties in this strange and inconsiderate way.
37:20Mrs. Patmore, Carson tells me you feel Daisy's lessons have disturbed the peace of the kitchen.
37:25Did you say that?
37:26I don't know what I said.
37:28I was upset about that other business.
37:30I wondered if it were true, Daisy.
37:33Well, I'm sorry if I've made trouble downstairs.
37:35You haven't.
37:36Not really.
37:37But I must say this, my lord.
37:39Miss Bunting here has opened my eyes to a world of knowledge I knew nothing of.
37:43Maybe I'll stay a cook all my life, but I have choices now.
37:48Interests, facts at my fingertips, and I'd never have had any of that if she hadn't come here to teach
37:52me.
37:53Bravo.
37:54Well said.
37:57Quite a testimonial.
37:58May we go, my lord?
37:59Only we've still got the pudding and the savouries.
38:01Of course.
38:06Obviously, the lessons have proved successful.
38:09I'm pleased to hear it.
38:11Are you, Lord Grantham?
38:13Oh, for heaven's sake, let it go.
38:15You've proved your point.
38:16Have I, though?
38:17All I've proved is that Lord Grantham would like us serfs to stay in our allotted place from cradle to
38:21grave.
38:22There is only one thing I would like, and that I would like passionately.
38:26It is to see you leave this house and never come back!
38:34Help you now.
38:39Are you still writing that very interesting column?
38:43Yes, Granny.
38:44Oh, you must show me some of them.
38:46What is the latest one about?
38:49What are they all about?
38:51The way the world is changing.
39:01He just left the room.
39:04Oh, I don't mean to interrupt.
39:05No, no.
39:06We were just discussing the Battle of Little Bighorn.
39:08The Battle of Little Minks, more like.
39:10To speak to his lordship in that manner in his own house.
39:13It's true, then.
39:14I thought Mr Barrow might be exaggerating.
39:16It seems he wasn't, for once.
39:18Mr Branson must be horrified to have brought her here.
39:20I don't know.
39:22I like him, but sometimes I think we've forgotten the Mr Branson that was down here with us,
39:27spouting Kia Hardy between every mouthful.
39:30They've made him one of them in a way, but it's not who he really is.
39:33Then it makes me wonder whether Downton is the right place for him.
39:36A question I'm sure he's asked himself many times.
39:40I can't stand that woman.
39:41No great surprise there.
39:43I suppose you think I made a fool of myself.
39:45What does it matter?
39:46I don't see that you were much better.
39:48Flirting and twinkling with that ghastly traveling salesman.
39:55Go to sleep.
39:57And when you wake up, make sure you get out of bed on the right side.
40:17Good night, Tom.
40:19And cheer up.
40:21You gave Granny a wonderful evening.
40:31Well, what's her to do?
40:33It seems to me your friend Miss Bunting is out to make trouble.
40:37She's brought me to life, Mrs Fatmore.
40:39All the same, she wouldn't win a popularity contest upstairs.
40:43Would you like to write a letter to the War Office?
40:46Oh, don't be daft.
40:47I mean it.
40:48If you think Archie's been badly treated, you must protest.
40:52I wouldn't know how to write a letter like that.
40:54I can write it for you.
40:56It won't do any good.
40:57His lordship says there are rules in place.
40:59He wouldn't lie about it.
41:00No, but if you protest, and then over the years more and more others protest,
41:04then they might change their blessed rules.
41:06This is your learning, isn't it?
41:08That's what you're trying to show me, that you're not afraid.
41:11No, I'm not.
41:14Go on then.
41:15I'll do it tomorrow.
41:28How can we help you this time?
41:30It's an odd business.
41:32Since all this started, they've kept a plainclothes man on watch at Lord Gillingham's set in Albany.
41:37Now I'm told what Mrs Bates was seen there loitering outside.
41:41Well, I know why that would be.
41:44Lady Mary must have wanted to see Lord Gillingham while she was in London.
41:47And no doubt Anna was sent with a message to arrange a meeting.
41:50I knew you'd have something sensible to say.
41:53Sergeant?
41:54Well, it seems likely.
41:55But from there, Mrs Bates walked into Piccadilly, to the spot where Mr Green died.
42:01There's no possibility she might have a grudge against him that Mr Bates might share.
42:06Not that I'm aware.
42:07As I recall, she rather liked him.
42:10Mrs Hughes?
42:11Yes, she liked him.
42:12So she said.
42:13They may want to question her.
42:14But before they send someone up, they've asked me to check one thing.
42:17She was definitely here on the day of his death.
42:19Here at Downton.
42:23I believe so.
42:24Surely you can't think that Mrs...
42:26I'm not paid to think, Mrs Hughes.
42:27Just to record the facts.
42:30Hong Kong?
42:31A lot of the Tsarist sympathisers ended up there.
42:34How did they survive?
42:35As servants and taxi drivers.
42:38Milliners and prostitutes.
42:40Anything they could lay their hand to.
42:42I will not suggest to each of those callings the Princess Kiaragin was most suited.
42:47If you dislike her so much, why are you going to all this trouble?
42:49Because I owe it to her.
42:51Why?
42:52By the way, Susan has written to Annabelle to say she's furious that you've all taken me in.
42:58Oh, dear, Susan has been in a rage since she was playing with her dolls.
43:02I am proof against her tantrums.
43:03I would rephrase that if you want to stay neutral.
43:06I won't take sides.
43:08It's true.
43:10But I don't think I could ever be described as neutral.
43:17Have you apologized to Tom?
43:19I never knew anyone who could provoke me into saying so many things I don't believe.
43:23But I am sorry, Tom.
43:25Please forgive me.
43:26She knows how to goad you.
43:27With the precision of a surgeon.
43:29Why do you go on with her?
43:31Since Sybil died, I've forgotten what it's like to be with someone who feels about things as I do.
43:35That's why.
43:36Or that's been why.
43:38To me, it's as if you joined us.
43:40And now you're backing away.
43:46What are we doing here?
43:49I want to explain why I think we should turn down Wavell's offer.
43:53I know.
43:53We are only the caretakers of Downton.
43:56But, Papa, some things have to change.
43:58True.
43:59But we mustn't destroy what we're trying to protect.
44:02Wavell would wreck this lovely place forever with his ugly cheap houses.
44:06But you can't block all development.
44:07I won't.
44:08I intend to expand, but without spoiling.
44:11I'm going to make a plan and find a solid builder who can fit into the village and not ruin
44:15it.
44:16That may be hard to achieve.
44:17It may be harder than cashing Wavell's check, but does that mean we shouldn't try?
44:22No.
44:24We will build.
44:26We'll even make money for the estate.
44:28But we won't destroy what people love about this place.
44:31Do you think that's wrong?
44:33No.
44:34It's not wrong.
44:35That's all I'm asking.
