Oh, my God.
That's impossible.
- I'll take it up there now.
- Don't be stupid.
None of them will be up for hours.
What difference will it make?
Jimmy will do it when he comes in.
Six o'clock!
Thank you, Daisy.
Anna.
Just for once in my life I'd like to sleep
until I woke up natural.
- Is your fire still in?
- Yes, Mrs Patmore.
Oh, my, my, will wonders never cease?
- Yes, Mrs Patmore.
- And finished blacking that stove?
- Yes, Mrs Patmore.
- What about the bedroom fires?
- All lit, Mrs Patmore.
Right, well, take your things and get
started on the fires on the ground floor.
Now, hurry up.
Any sign of William? No.
- Where have you been?
- I'm not late, am I?
You're late when I say you're late.
Daisy, whatever are you doing there,
crouching in the dark?
You weren't here and I didn't like to
touch the curtains with me dirty hands.
Well, quite right, too.
- Why didn't you put the lights on?
- I daren't.
Well, it's electricity
and not the devil's handiwork.
You'll have to get used
to it sooner or later.
At Skelton Park,
they've even got it in the kitchens.
What for?
Yes, Mrs Patmore.
- Breakfast is ready, Mr Carson.
- Ah, William, any papers yet?
- They're late.
- They certainly are.
Get the board out
so you can do them as soon as they're here.
- Is the library tidy?
- Yes, Mrs Hughes.
Good. I want the dining room given
a proper going over today.
You can do it
when they've finished their breakfast.
Oh, heavens, girl!
You're building a fire, not inventing it.
- How many have you done?
- This is me last till they come downstairs.
Very well.
Now, get back down to the kitchens
before anyone sees you.
- And they're off.
- No rest for the wicked.
- Lady Mary. Are the tea trays ready?
- All ready, Mrs Patmore.
If the water's boiled.
Could you give us a hand
to take the other two up?
I've got her ladyship's to carry.
- I'll help.
- Back door.
The papers, at last. William!
- You're late.
- Yeah, I know, but...
- But what?
- You'll see.
Do The Times first,
he only reads that at breakfast.
And the Sketch for her ladyship.




You can manage the others
later, if need be.
- Why are their papers ironed?
- What's it to you?
To dry the ink, silly.
We wouldn't want his lordship's hands
to be as black as yours.
Mr Carson, I think you ought to see this.
I can't make myself believe it.
Me neither.
- His lordship's dressed.
- William!
Will you stop talking
and take this kedgeree up.     ( kedgeree = prato indiano)
- And mind the burners are still lit.
- Yes, Mrs Patmore.
- Is it really true?
- Afraid so.
Nothing in life is sure.
- Good morning, Carson.
- Good morning, my lord.
- Is it true what they're saying?
- I believe so, my lord.
I'm afraid we'll know some people on it.
I don't suppose there are any lists
of survivors yet?
I understand most of the ladies
were taken off in time.
You mean the ladies in first class?
God help the poor devils below decks.
On their way to a better life.
What a tragedy.
When Anna told me,
I thought she must have dreamt it.
Do we know anyone on board?
Your mother knows the Astors,
at least she knows him.
We dined with Lady Rothes last month.
I thought it was supposed to be unsinkable.
Every mountain is unclimbable
until someone climbs it,
so every ship is unsinkable until it sinks.
- Good morning, Papa.
- Good morning. What's that?
Just arrived. Telegram.
- Is her ladyship awake?
- Yes, my lord.
- I'm just going to take in her breakfast.
- Thank you.
Hello.
May I come in?
Isn't this terrible?
When you think how excited
Lucy Rothes was at the prospect.
It's too awful for any words.
Did J.J. Astor get off?
Of course that new wife of his
is bound to have been rescued.
I've had a telegram from George Murray.
- One of his partners is in New York.
- Yes?
It seems James and Patrick were on board.
What? They can't have been.
They weren't going over until May.
Then they changed their plans.
They're definitely on the passenger list.
Thank you, O'Brien.
That'll be all for the moment.
But surely they were picked up?
- Doesn't look like it.
- What?
Neither of them?
You must tell Mary.
She can't hear about it from anyone else.
Neither of them were picked up,
that's what he said.
- Mr Crawley and Mr Patrick?
- That's what he said.
Her ladyship was the colour of this cloth.
Well, it's a terrible shame if it's true.
It's worse than a shame,
it's a complication.
- What do you mean?
- What do you think?
Mr Crawley was his lordship's cousin
and heir to the title.
I thought Lady Mary was the heir.
She's a girl, stupid. Girls can't inherit.
But now Mr Crawley's dead
and Mr Patrick was his only son.
So, what happens next?
It's a dreadful thing.
Hello.
I've been waiting at the back door.
I knocked, but no one came.
So you pushed in?
I'm John Bates, the new valet.
- The new valet?
- That's right.
- You're early.
- Came on the milk train.
Thought I'd use the day
to get to know the place, start tonight.
I'm Anna, the head housemaid.
How do you do?
And I'm Miss O'Brien, her ladyship's maid.
You better come along with us.
- But how can you manage?
- Don't worry about that, I can manage.
- Because we've all got our own work to do.
- I can manage.
All right, Mrs Hughes, I'll take over.
Thank you.
Good morning, Mr Bates. Welcome.
- I hope your journey was satisfactory.
- It was fine. Thank you.
I am the butler of Downton.
My name is Carson.
How do you do, Mr Carson?
This is Thomas, first footman.
He's been looking after his lordship
since Mr Watson left.
It'll be a relief to get back to normal,
won't it, Thomas?
I assume that everything is ready
for Mr Bates' arrival?
I've put him in Mr Watson's old room.
Though he left it in quite a state,
I can tell you.
But what about all them stairs?
- I keep telling you, I can manage.
- Of course you can.
Thomas, take Mr Bates to his room,
show him where he'll be working.
Thank you, everyone.
- Well, I can't see that lasting long.
- Thank you, Miss O'Brien.
Oh, yes.
I should be comfortable here.
Does this mean I'll have to
go into full mourning?
My first cousin and his son
are almost certainly dead.
- We'll all be in mourning.
- No, I mean with the other thing.
After all, it wasn't official.
If you're saying you do not wish to mourn
Patrick as a fiance, that is up to you.
Well, no one knew about it
outside the family.
I repeat, it is up to you.
Well, that's a relief.
There's some cedar-lined cupboards
in the attic
for things that aren't often worn,
travelling clothes and such.
Mr Watson used them to
rotate the summer and winter stuff.
I'll show you later.
What about studs and links?
Do I choose them or does he?
Lay them out unless he asks
for something in particular.
These for a ball, these for an
ordinary dinner, these only in London.
- I'll get the hang of it.
- Yeah, you'll have to.
Snuff boxes, he collects them.
Beautiful.
- Funny ourjob, isn't it?
- What do you mean?
The way we live with all this
pirate's hoard within our reach.
But none of it's ours, is it?
No, none of it's ours.
I can't believe I've been passed over
for Long John Silver.
You should have spoken up
when you had the chance.
Don't make the same mistake next time.
Who says there'll be a next time?
Is this a public holiday
no one's told me of?
She was certainly reluctant
to go into mourning.
Well, she'll have to. We all will.
O'Brien's sorting out my black now.
And I've told Anna to see what
the girls have that still fits.
Of course, this alters everything.
You won't try to deny it.
You must challenge the entail now, surely.
Can't we at least wait until
we know they're dead before we discuss it?
Don't talk as if I'm not brokenhearted,
because I am.
Of course, I've never understood why
this estate must go
to whomever inherits your title.
My dear, I don't make the law. What is it?
The Dowager Countess is
in the drawing room.
- I'll come now.
- She asked for Lady Grantham.
I wonder what I've done wrong this time.
Oh. And the new valet has arrived, my lord.
Has he? Thank you, Carson.
What is it?
I'm not entirely sure
that he'll prove equal to the task.
But your lordship will
be the judge of that.
Better go.
Tell her about James and Patrick.
She won't have heard.
Of course I've heard.
Why else would I be here?
Robert didn't want you to read about it
in the newspaper and be upset.
He flatters me.
I'm tougher than I look.
I'm very sorry about
poor Patrick, of course.
- He was a nice boy.
- We were all so fond of him.
But I never cared for James.
He was too like his mother
and a nastier woman never drew breath.
- Will you stay for some luncheon?
- Thank you.
- I'll let Carson know.
- I've already told him.
Shall we sit down?
- Do you know the new heir?
- Only that there is one.
He's Robert's third cousin, once removed.
I have never to my knowledge
set eyes on him.
Of course, if your late husband hadn't forced
me to sign that absurd act of legal theft...
My dear, I didn't come here to fight.
Lord Grantham wanted to protect the estate.
It never occurred to him
that you wouldn't have a son.
- Well, I didn't.
- No, you did not.
But when Patrick had married Mary
and your grandson been hailed as master,
honour would have been satisfied.
Unfortunately, now...
Now, a complete unknown has the right
to pocket my money
along with the rest of the swag.   (SWAG = GANHOS)
The problem is, saving your dowry                 (DOWRY = DOTE)
would break up the estate.
It would be the ruin of everything
Robert's given his life to.
- And he knows this?
- Well, if he doesn't, he will.
- Then there's no answer.
- Yes, there is, and it's a simple one.
The entail must be smashed in its entirety
and Mary recognised as heiress of all.
- There's nothing we can do about the title.
- No.
She can't have the title,
but she can have your money.
And the estate.
I didn't run Downton for 30 years
to see it go lock, stock and barrel
to a stranger from God knows where.
Are we to be friends, then?
We are allies, my dear,
which can be a good deal more effective.
Downton is a great house, Mr Bates.
And the Crawleys are a great family.
We live by certain standards and
those standards can at first seem daunting.
Of course.
If you find yourself tongue-tied
in the presence of his lordship,
I can only assure you
that his manners and grace
will soon help you to perform your duties
to the best of your ability.
I know.
Bates, my dear fellow.
I do apologise, I should have realised
you'd all be at luncheon.
- Not at all, my lord.
- Please, sit. Sit, everyone.
I just want to say a quick hello
to my old comrade in arms.
Bates, my dear man, welcome to Downton.
Thank you, sir.
I'm so sorry to have disturbed you all.
Please forgive me.
You never asked.
Thomas, take that up.
Leave it, Daisy! He's a grown man.
I suppose he can lift a meat pie.
Now, put that apple tart in the lower oven.
Oh, and take that away.
Mr Lynch shouldn't have left it there.
- What is it?
- Salt of Sorrel.
I asked him for some to
clean the brass pots.
So, put it somewhere careful. It's poison.
Seems like a lot of food
when you think they're all in mourning.
Nothing makes you hungrier or more tired
than grief.
When my sister died, God rest her soul,
I ate my way through four platefuls
of sandwiches at one sitting
and slept round the clock.
Did it make you feel better?
Not much, but it passed the time.
Oh, my Lord! What was this chopped egg
supposed to be sprinkled on?
- Was it the chicken?
- It was. Take it upstairs now.
- I can't go in the dining room.
- I should think not.
Find Thomas or William
and tell them what to do.
And for heaven's sake get a move on, girl,
before they get back from church.
Well, we've given them a memorial in London
and a memorial here.
I prefer memorials to funerals,
they're less dispiriting.
We could hardly have held a funeral
without the bodies.
I gather they're putting up a stone to
mark those whose bodies were never found.
In fact, I hear the Canadians are making
quite a thing at the Titanic cemetery.
I'm surprised at the number they found.
You'd think the sea
would've taken more of them.
So, Murray, what have you to tell me
about the lucky Mr Crawley?
Nothing too terrible, I hope.
I've only made a few inquiries
but, no, there's not much to alarm you.
Matthew Crawley is a solicitor
based in Manchester.
Manchester?
His special field is company law.
His mother is alive and he lives with her.
His father obviously is not.
He was a doctor.
I know.
It does seem odd that
my third cousin should be a doctor.
There are worse professions.
Indeed.
Do me a favour. This is supposed to be
sprinkled on the chicken.    (Isto é suposto ser aspergido sobre o frango)
- But isn't there more to go up?
- Oh, please, it won't take a moment.
- Go on then, give it here.
- Okay.
We ought to talk about
the business of the entail.
As you know, on your death,
the heir to the title inherits everything,
except for the sums set aside
for your daughters and your widow.
Yes.
Owing to the terms of her settlement,
this will include the bulk
of your wife's fortune.
It has been our sole topic
of conversation
since the day the ship went down.
Of course it must seem
horribly unjust to Lady Grantham,
but that is how the law stands.
Is there really no way to detach her money
from the estate?
Even to me, it seems absurd.
Your father tied the knots pretty tight.
I'd say it's unbreakable.
I see.
Really, Edith, do you have to put on
such an exhibition?
She's not.
I was supposed to be engaged to him,
for heaven's sake, not you.
And I can control myself.
Then you should be ashamed.
Oh, and don't tell me
you've not sent up the egg yet.
Oh, God, help me! Please, God, help me!
Well, what on earth's the matter?
Just run upstairs to the dining room
and find William. I beg you.
- I can't do that now.
- You've got to.
- I'll be hanged if you don't.
- What?
Daisy, is that you?
Is it the chicken in a sauce
or the plain chicken with sliced oranges?
Oh, thank you, blessed and merciful Lord!
Thank you.
It's the chicken in the sauce.
I'll never do anything sinful
again, I swear it. Not till I die.
Mr Murray, how lovely to see you.
Do come in.
You're very kind, Lady Grantham,
but I must get back to London.
- But you'll stay for luncheon?
- Thank you, but no, I'll eat on the train.
In fact, if you'd be so good as to ask
for the motor be brought round?
But didn't you want the afternoon
to talk things through?
I think we've said everything we
have to say, haven't we, my lord?
For the time being, yes.
Thank you, Murray.
You've given me a good deal to think about.
Mary, try to get everyone
into the dining room.
Edith, make sure old Lord Minterne
sits down.
Mmm-hmm.
- They've all gone?
- They have, thank the Lord.
- Oh, what about the lawyer?
- Oh, he was the first away.
Didn't even stay for the luncheon.
I wish they'd make their minds up.
Gwen's put clean sheets
on the Blue Room bed.
Now she'll just have to strip it again.

333
00:24:47,027 --> 00:24:51,156
- Can't you leave it for the next guest?
- Well, only if you don't tell.

334
00:24:54,535 --> 00:24:57,662
So, has it all been settled?

335
00:24:57,997 --> 00:25:00,707
No. I don't know if
anything's been settled.

336
00:25:00,791 --> 00:25:03,960
There's a fellow in Manchester
with claims to the title, I gather,

337
00:25:04,044 --> 00:25:07,881
but it's all a long way from settled.

338
00:25:08,132 --> 00:25:11,885
- You mustn't take it personally.
- No, I do take it personally, Mrs Hughes.

339
00:25:11,969 --> 00:25:16,931
I can't stand by and watch our family
threatened with a loss of all they hold dear.

340
00:25:17,516 --> 00:25:21,686
- They are not our family.
- Well, they're all the family I've got.

341
00:25:26,692 --> 00:25:28,526
I beg your pardon.

342
00:25:33,407 --> 00:25:38,036
Do you ever wish you'd gone another way?

343
00:25:43,250 --> 00:25:47,462
Worked in a shop or a factory?
Had a wife and children?

344
00:25:48,505 --> 00:25:49,797
Do you?

345
00:25:52,301 --> 00:25:55,136
I don't know. Maybe.

346
00:25:55,721 --> 00:25:57,096
Sometimes.

347
00:25:59,808 --> 00:26:03,311
William's laid tea in the library,
but her ladyship hasn't come down.

348
00:26:03,395 --> 00:26:07,190
Oh, she'll be tired.
Take a tray up to her bedroom.

349
00:26:07,274 --> 00:26:09,943
- Is Thomas back?
- Not yet, Mr Carson.

350
00:26:14,406 --> 00:26:17,033
He asked if he could run down the village,
I didn't see why not.

351
00:26:43,394 --> 00:26:45,103
It's iniquitous.

352
00:26:45,187 --> 00:26:49,232
They can't expect you to sit by silent
as your fortune is stolen away.

353
00:26:49,316 --> 00:26:50,358
Can't they?

354
00:26:50,442 --> 00:26:53,361
His lordship would never let it happen.

355
00:26:54,029 --> 00:26:56,114
How's Bates working out?

356
00:26:56,699 --> 00:26:59,200
Well, I don't like to say.

357
00:27:01,203 --> 00:27:05,456
Only it seems unkind to criticise a man
for an affliction, my lady.

358
00:27:06,667 --> 00:27:09,335
Even if it means he can't do his job.

359
00:27:16,343 --> 00:27:18,386
How are you settling in?

360
00:27:19,013 --> 00:27:22,890
Very well, I think.
Unless your lordship feels differently.

361
00:27:23,183 --> 00:27:24,559
No complaints?

362
00:27:24,643 --> 00:27:27,729
If I had any, I should take them
to Mr Carson, my lord, not you.

363
00:27:29,356 --> 00:27:31,316
You're probably right.

364
00:27:32,234 --> 00:27:36,237
And the house hasn't worn you out
with the endless stairs and everything?

365
00:27:36,363 --> 00:27:40,033
I like the house, my lord.
I like it as a place to work.

366
00:27:41,910 --> 00:27:45,079
- What happened?
- Oh, it's only the old wound.

367
00:27:45,873 --> 00:27:47,999
After I left the army, I'd a spot of bother

368
00:27:48,083 --> 00:27:53,087
and just when I got through that about
a year ago my knee started playing up.

369
00:27:53,422 --> 00:27:56,924
A bit of shrapnel got left in or something
and it moved, but it's fine.

370
00:27:57,051 --> 00:27:58,343
It's not a problem.

371
00:27:58,427 --> 00:28:01,846
And you'd let me know if you felt
it was all too much for you?

372
00:28:01,930 --> 00:28:04,057
I would. But it won't be.

373
00:28:06,101 --> 00:28:07,393
Thomas.

374
00:28:08,729 --> 00:28:11,356
- And where have you been?
- The village.

375
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:15,735
- To send a telegram, if you must know.
- Ooh, pardon me for living.

376
00:28:21,533 --> 00:28:24,077
Well, Murray didn't stay long.

377
00:28:28,207 --> 00:28:30,875
- Does her ladyship know how they left it?
- No.

378
00:28:30,959 --> 00:28:34,462
They talked it all through
on the way back from the church.

379
00:28:34,546 --> 00:28:36,798
If I was still his valet,
I'd get it out of him.

380
00:28:36,924 --> 00:28:39,967
- Bates won't say a word.
- He will not.

381
00:28:41,553 --> 00:28:44,722
I bet you a tenner he's a spy
in the other direction.

382
00:28:45,933 --> 00:28:47,767
I wanted that job.

383
00:28:48,102 --> 00:28:49,811
We were all right together,
his lordship and me.

384
00:28:49,937 --> 00:28:53,940
Then be sure to get your foot in the door
when Bates is gone.

385
00:28:54,066 --> 00:28:57,652
You can't get rid of him
just because he talks behind our backs.

386
00:28:57,778 --> 00:29:00,113
There's more than one way to skin a cat.

387
00:29:01,824 --> 00:29:05,410
- Perhaps she misunderstood.
- No, it was quite plain.

388
00:29:05,828 --> 00:29:08,413
O'Brien told her
Bates can't do the job properly.

389
00:29:08,497 --> 00:29:09,997
Why was he taken on?

390
00:29:10,124 --> 00:29:13,334
Oh, he was Lord Grantham's batman
when he was fighting the Boers.

391
00:29:13,419 --> 00:29:15,586
I know that, but even so.

392
00:29:15,671 --> 00:29:17,588
- I think it's romantic.
- I don't.

393
00:29:17,673 --> 00:29:19,757
How can a valet do his work if he's lame?

394
00:29:19,842 --> 00:29:21,676
He's not very lame.

395
00:29:21,969 --> 00:29:24,846
There. Anything else before I go down?

396
00:29:24,972 --> 00:29:27,140
No, that's it. Thank you.

397
00:29:35,858 --> 00:29:37,692
Oh, I hate black.

398
00:29:38,026 --> 00:29:39,444
It's not for long.

399
00:29:39,528 --> 00:29:42,447
Mama says we can go into
half-mourning next month.

400
00:29:42,531 --> 00:29:44,031
And back to colours by September.

401
00:29:44,158 --> 00:29:47,702
- Still seems a lot for a cousin.
- But not a fiance?

402
00:29:51,707 --> 00:29:54,375
- He wasn't really a fiance.
- No?

403
00:29:55,127 --> 00:29:58,463
I thought that was what you call a man
you're going to marry.

404
00:29:58,547 --> 00:30:01,632
I was only going to marry him
if nothing better turned up.

405
00:30:01,717 --> 00:30:04,552
- Mary, what a horrid thing to say.
- Don't worry.

406
00:30:04,636 --> 00:30:06,888
Edith would have taken him, wouldn't you?

407
00:30:07,139 --> 00:30:09,557
Yes, I'd have taken him.

408
00:30:10,517 --> 00:30:14,729
If you'd given me the chance,
I'd have taken him like a shot.

409
00:30:15,981 --> 00:30:18,649
I just think you should know
it's not working, Mr Carson.

410
00:30:18,734 --> 00:30:21,152
Do you mean Mr Bates is lazy?

411
00:30:21,236 --> 00:30:25,239
Not lazy, exactly. But he just can't carry.

412
00:30:25,574 --> 00:30:27,074
He can hardly manage his lordship's cases.

413
00:30:27,201 --> 00:30:29,994
You saw how it was when they went up
to London for the memorial.

414
00:30:30,078 --> 00:30:31,579
He can't help with
the guests' luggage neither.

415
00:30:31,705 --> 00:30:33,748
And as for waiting at table,
we can forget that.

416
00:30:33,874 --> 00:30:36,834
- And what do you want me to do?
- Well, it's not for me to say.

417
00:30:36,919 --> 00:30:40,338
But is it fair on William
to have all the extra work?

418
00:30:40,422 --> 00:30:43,758
I don't believe you'd like to think
the house was falling below

419
00:30:43,842 --> 00:30:45,760
the way things ought to be.

420
00:30:45,886 --> 00:30:49,055
- I would not.
- That's all I'm saying.

421
00:30:59,024 --> 00:31:01,234
I'm going down. Coming?

422
00:31:01,860 --> 00:31:03,736
In a moment. You go.

423
00:31:13,038 --> 00:31:15,122
I know you're sad about Patrick.

424
00:31:15,207 --> 00:31:17,458
Whatever you say, I know it.

425
00:31:18,085 --> 00:31:20,127
You're a darling.

426
00:31:23,131 --> 00:31:26,133
But you see, I'm not as sad as I should be.

427
00:31:26,385 --> 00:31:28,636
And that's what makes me sad.

428
00:31:30,639 --> 00:31:32,139
Thank you.

429
00:31:32,641 --> 00:31:35,560
- I'll do that.
- No. No, thank you, my lord.

430
00:31:35,644 --> 00:31:37,645
- I can do it.
- I'm sure.

431
00:31:38,981 --> 00:31:41,941
I hope so, my lord. I hope you're sure.

432
00:31:42,150 --> 00:31:44,485
Bates, we have to be sensible.

433
00:31:44,987 --> 00:31:47,822
I won't be doing you a favour in the
long run if it's too much for you.

434
00:31:48,031 --> 00:31:49,907
No matter what we've been through,
it's got to work.

435
00:31:49,992 --> 00:31:53,327
Of course it has, sir. I mean, my lord.

436
00:31:53,996 --> 00:31:55,621
Do you miss the army, Bates?

437
00:31:55,706 --> 00:31:58,332
I miss a lot of things, but you have to
keep moving, don't you?

438
00:31:58,667 --> 00:32:00,668
You do, indeed.

439
00:32:02,004 --> 00:32:05,214
I'll show you, my lord, I promise.
I won't let you down.

440
00:32:05,340 --> 00:32:07,967
We've managed so far, haven't we?

441
00:32:08,885 --> 00:32:10,678
Yes, we have. Of course we have.

442
00:32:14,516 --> 00:32:17,393
- You look very nice.
- Thank you, darling.

443
00:32:17,519 --> 00:32:21,564
- Did Murray make matters clearer?
- Yes, I'm afraid he did.

444
00:32:31,700 --> 00:32:35,786
By the way, O'Brien says Bates is
causing a lot of awkwardness downstairs.

445
00:32:35,871 --> 00:32:37,872
You may have to do something about it.

446
00:32:37,998 --> 00:32:40,374
She's always making trouble.

447
00:32:40,500 --> 00:32:43,836
Is that fair when she hasn't mentioned it
before now?

448
00:32:44,212 --> 00:32:46,172
I don't know why you listen to her.

449
00:32:46,423 --> 00:32:51,510
It is quite eccentric, even for you,
to have a crippled valet.

450
00:32:51,678 --> 00:32:54,680
Please, don't use that word.

451
00:32:55,057 --> 00:32:57,975
Did he tell you he couldn't walk
when he made his application?

452
00:32:58,060 --> 00:32:59,268
Don't exaggerate.

453
00:32:59,394 --> 00:33:02,021
Doesn't it strike you as dishonest
not to mention it?

454
00:33:02,105 --> 00:33:04,607
- I knew he'd been wounded.
- You never said.

455
00:33:04,733 --> 00:33:07,401
You know I don't care
to talk about all that.

456
00:33:07,527 --> 00:33:11,572
Of course I understand what it must be like
to have fought alongside someone in a war.

457
00:33:11,782 --> 00:33:14,492
- Oh, you understand that, do you?
- Certainly I do.

458
00:33:14,576 --> 00:33:17,244
You must form the most tremendous bonds.

459
00:33:17,371 --> 00:33:19,789
- Even with a servant.
- Really?

460
00:33:20,082 --> 00:33:21,916
Even with a servant?

461
00:33:22,084 --> 00:33:25,211
Oh, Robert, don't catch me out.

462
00:33:26,213 --> 00:33:29,256
I'm simply saying I fully see
why you want to help him.

463
00:33:29,383 --> 00:33:30,383
But?

464
00:33:30,467 --> 00:33:34,303
But is this the right way,
to employ him for a job he can't do?

465
00:33:34,429 --> 00:33:36,847
Is it any wonder if the others' noses
are put out?

466
00:33:36,932 --> 00:33:38,599
I just want to give him a chance.

467
00:33:45,732 --> 00:33:48,109
Mama, I'm sorry,
no one told me you were here.

468
00:33:48,235 --> 00:33:50,653
Oh, dear, such a glare.

469
00:33:51,822 --> 00:33:56,200
I feel as if I were on stage at the Gaiety.
We're used to it.

470
00:33:56,284 --> 00:33:59,704
I do wish you'd let me install it
in the Dower House. It's very convenient.

471
00:33:59,788 --> 00:34:02,540
The man who manages the generator
could look after yours as well.

472
00:34:02,624 --> 00:34:07,086
No. I couldn't have electricity in the house.
I wouldn't sleep a wink.

473
00:34:07,170 --> 00:34:08,963
All those vapours seeping about.

474
00:34:09,089 --> 00:34:10,756
Even Cora won't have it in the bedroom.

475
00:34:10,841 --> 00:34:14,051
She did wonder about the kitchens,
but I couldn't see the point.

476
00:34:14,136 --> 00:34:18,305
Well, before anyone joins us,
I'm glad of this chance for a little talk.

477
00:34:21,643 --> 00:34:25,813
- I gather Murray was here today?
- News travels fast. Yes.

478
00:34:25,939 --> 00:34:29,942
I saw him and he's not optimistic
that there's anything we can do.

479
00:34:30,026 --> 00:34:34,280
- Well, I refuse to believe it.
- Be that as it may, it's a fact.

480
00:34:35,198 --> 00:34:38,826
But to lose Cora's fortune to...

481
00:34:38,952 --> 00:34:41,245
Really, Mama, you know as well as I do

482
00:34:41,329 --> 00:34:44,415
that Cora's fortune
is not Cora's fortune any more.

483
00:34:44,499 --> 00:34:47,126
Thanks to Papa, it is
now part of the estate.

484
00:34:47,294 --> 00:34:51,839
And the estate is entailed to my heir,
that is it. That is all of it.

485
00:34:52,966 --> 00:34:57,011
- Robert, dear, I don't mean to sound harsh...
- You may not mean to, but I bet you will.

486
00:34:57,137 --> 00:35:01,891
Twenty-four years ago you married Cora,
against my wishes, for her money.

487
00:35:03,351 --> 00:35:07,688
Give it away now, what was the point of
your peculiar marriage in the first place?

488
00:35:07,814 --> 00:35:11,817
If I were to tell you she'd made me
very happy, would that stretch belief?

489
00:35:11,902 --> 00:35:14,320
It's not why you chose her,

490
00:35:14,571 --> 00:35:18,741
above all those other girls
who could've filled my shoes so easily.

491
00:35:18,867 --> 00:35:23,704
If you must know, when I think of my
motives for pursuing Cora, I'm ashamed.

492
00:35:24,039 --> 00:35:26,874
There's no need to remind me of them.

493
00:35:27,584 --> 00:35:30,002
Don't you care about Downton?

494
00:35:31,838 --> 00:35:33,714
What do you think?

495
00:35:34,716 --> 00:35:37,051
I've given my life to Downton.

496
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,513
I was born here and I hope to die here.

497
00:35:41,223 --> 00:35:44,517
I claim no career beyond the nurture
of this house and the estate.

498
00:35:44,601 --> 00:35:47,186
It is my third parent and my fourth child.

499
00:35:47,270 --> 00:35:50,564
Do I care about it? Yes, I do care!

500
00:35:52,567 --> 00:35:55,027
I hope I don't hear
sounds of a disagreement.

501
00:35:55,111 --> 00:35:58,489
Oh, is that what they call
discussion in New York?

502
00:35:58,573 --> 00:36:02,076
Well, I'm glad you're fighting.
I'm glad somebody's putting up a fight.

503
00:36:02,244 --> 00:36:04,411
You're not really fighting Granny,
are you, Papa?

504
00:36:04,538 --> 00:36:08,916
Your grandmother merely wishes
to do the right thing. And so do I.

505
00:36:09,125 --> 00:36:11,252
Dinner is served, my lady.

506
00:36:11,419 --> 00:36:14,421
Does anyone else keep dreaming
about the Titanic?

507
00:36:14,548 --> 00:36:17,800
- I can't get it out of my mind.
- Not again. Give it a rest.

508
00:36:17,926 --> 00:36:19,343
Daisy, it is time to let it go.

509
00:36:19,427 --> 00:36:24,265
But all them people, freezing to
death in the midnight icy water.

510
00:36:24,391 --> 00:36:26,392
Oh, you sound like a penny dreadful.

511
00:36:26,476 --> 00:36:30,020
I expect you saw worse things
in South Africa. Eh, Mr Bates?

512
00:36:30,105 --> 00:36:33,065
Not worse, but pretty bad.

513
00:36:33,149 --> 00:36:34,525
Did you enjoy the war?

514
00:36:34,609 --> 00:36:38,153
I don't think anyone enjoys war,
but there are some good memories, too.

515
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:39,655
I'm sure there are.

516
00:36:39,781 --> 00:36:42,616
Mr Bates, would you hand me that tray?

517
00:36:46,788 --> 00:36:48,831
- I'll do it.
- Sorry.

518
00:36:53,795 --> 00:36:56,005
The ladies are out, we've
given them coffee .

519
00:36:56,006 --> 00:36:58,215
The lordship's taken his
port to the library.

520
00:36:58,300 --> 00:37:00,968
Anna, Gwen, go up and help clear away.

521
00:37:01,094 --> 00:37:04,513
Uh, Daisy, tell Mrs Patmore
we'll eat in 15 minutes.

522
00:37:17,777 --> 00:37:21,155
Well, I keep forgetting. Does this go
next door or back to the kitchen?

523
00:37:21,281 --> 00:37:24,742
Those go back, but the dessert service and
all the glasses stay in the upstairs pantry.

524
00:37:24,826 --> 00:37:26,535
Put it on here.

525
00:37:30,832 --> 00:37:31,874
What is it?

526
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,169
Her ladyship's told him
she thinks Mr Bates ought to go.

527
00:37:35,295 --> 00:37:39,423
She said to me, "If only his lordship
had been content with Thomas."

528
00:37:39,507 --> 00:37:41,258
Did she really?

529
00:37:41,384 --> 00:37:44,845
- What are you doing up here?
- It's a free country.

530
00:37:47,682 --> 00:37:52,853
Well, I'm going for my dinner.
You two can stay here plotting.

531
00:38:04,908 --> 00:38:09,870
So, the young Duke of Crowborough
is asking himself to stay.

532
00:38:09,955 --> 00:38:11,705
And we know why.

533
00:38:11,790 --> 00:38:15,250
You hope you know why.
That is not at all the same.

534
00:38:16,211 --> 00:38:19,880
You realise the Duke thinks
Mary's prospects have altered.

535
00:38:20,215 --> 00:38:24,385
- I suppose so.
- There's no "suppose" about it.

536
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,639
Of course, this is exactly the sort
of opportunity that will come to Mary

537
00:38:28,723 --> 00:38:32,101
if we can only get things settled
in her favour.

538
00:38:32,394 --> 00:38:35,646
- Is Robert coming round?
- Not yet.

539
00:38:36,106 --> 00:38:41,068
To him, the risk is we succeed in saving
my money but not the estate.

540
00:38:41,820 --> 00:38:46,490
He feels he'd be betraying his duty
if Downton were lost because of him.

541
00:38:47,158 --> 00:38:50,494
- Well, I'm going to write to Murray.
- He won't say anything different.

542
00:38:50,578 --> 00:38:55,124
Well, we have to start somewhere.
Our duty is to Mary.

543
00:38:56,001 --> 00:39:01,505
Well, give him a date
for when Mary's out of mourning.

544
00:39:04,426 --> 00:39:07,261
No one wants to kiss a girl in black.

545
00:39:10,098 --> 00:39:14,935
Oh, do stop admiring yourself.
He's not marrying you for your looks.

546
00:39:16,604 --> 00:39:20,190
That's if he wants to marry you at all.

547
00:39:20,275 --> 00:39:21,650
He will.

548
00:39:21,776 --> 00:39:23,318
I think you look beautiful.

549
00:39:23,445 --> 00:39:24,778
Thank you, Sybil darling.

550
00:39:24,863 --> 00:39:28,282
We should go down. They'll be back
from the station at any moment.

551
00:39:30,201 --> 00:39:35,289
Hmm. Let's not gild the lily, dear.
And Mary, try to look surprised.

552
00:39:35,957 --> 00:39:37,624
You all ready?

553
00:39:39,794 --> 00:39:42,671
Very well. You should go out to greet them.

554
00:39:42,839 --> 00:39:45,799
- And me, Mr Carson?
- No, Daisy, not you.

555
00:39:46,176 --> 00:39:49,178
Can you manage, Mr Bates?
Or would you rather wait here?

556
00:39:49,304 --> 00:39:50,387
I want to go, Mr Carson.

557
00:39:50,472 --> 00:39:52,806
Well, there's no obligation
for the whole staff to be present.

558
00:39:52,891 --> 00:39:54,349
- I'd like to be there.
- Hmm.

559
00:39:54,642 --> 00:39:57,644
Well, it's certainly a
great day for Downton

560
00:39:57,729 --> 00:40:00,397
to welcome a duke under our roof.

561
00:40:01,733 --> 00:40:04,151
Remember to help me with the luggage.
Don't go running off.

562
00:40:04,235 --> 00:40:05,277
I'll give you a hand.

563
00:40:05,361 --> 00:40:09,198
Oh, I couldn't ask that, Mr Bates,
not in your condition.

564
00:40:09,824 --> 00:40:14,328
How long do we have to put up with this,
Mr Carson, just so I know?

565
00:40:45,527 --> 00:40:47,444
Welcome to Downton.

566
00:40:48,071 --> 00:40:49,446
Lady Grantham, this is so kind of you.

567
00:40:49,531 --> 00:40:53,200
Not at all, Duke.
I'm delighted you could spare the time.

568
00:40:53,409 --> 00:40:56,120
- You know my daughter Mary, of course.
- Of course, Lady Mary.

569
00:40:56,204 --> 00:40:58,914
And Edith, but I don't believe
you've met my youngest, Sybil.

570
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,542
- Ah! Lady Sybil.
- How do you do?

571
00:41:02,585 --> 00:41:05,212
Come on in, you must be worn out.

572
00:41:06,381 --> 00:41:08,215
Oh, Lady Grantham,
I've a confession to make,

573
00:41:08,299 --> 00:41:09,967
which I hope won't cause too much bother.

574
00:41:10,051 --> 00:41:12,970
My man has taken ill just as I was leaving,
so I...

575
00:41:13,054 --> 00:41:15,347
Oh, well, that won't be a problem,
will it, Carson?

576
00:41:15,431 --> 00:41:18,475
Certainly not.
I shall look after His Grace myself.

577
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:22,729
Oh, no, I wouldn't dream of being
such a nuisance. Surely a footman...

578
00:41:22,897 --> 00:41:24,815
I remember this man.

579
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,526
Didn't you serve me when I dined
with Lady Grantham in London?

580
00:41:27,610 --> 00:41:30,320
- I did, Your Grace.
- Ah, there we are.

581
00:41:30,405 --> 00:41:32,239
We shall do very well together, won't we...

582
00:41:32,323 --> 00:41:34,741
- Uh, Thomas, Your Grace.
- Thomas.

583
00:41:35,243 --> 00:41:36,577
Good.

584
00:41:38,746 --> 00:41:41,999
Hope you had a pleasantjourney.
Mmm.

585
00:41:44,252 --> 00:41:48,589
- Bates, are you all right?
- Perfectly, my lord. I apologise.

586
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:54,261
Mr Bates.

587
00:41:59,309 --> 00:42:02,811
- That's better.
- Please, don't feel sorry for me.

588
00:42:12,864 --> 00:42:15,949
What shall we do?
What would you like to do?

589
00:42:17,452 --> 00:42:22,372
- I think I'd rather like to go exploring.
- Certainly. Gardens or house?

590
00:42:22,540 --> 00:42:25,417
Oh, house I think.
Gardens are all the same to me.

591
00:42:27,170 --> 00:42:29,880
Very well, we can begin in the hall,
which is one of the oldest...

592
00:42:29,964 --> 00:42:33,217
No, not all those drawing rooms
and libraries.

593
00:42:35,053 --> 00:42:36,887
Well, what then?

594
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:43,185
I don't know. The...
The secret passages and the attics.

595
00:42:44,646 --> 00:42:47,522
Well, it seems a bit odd but, why not?

596
00:42:48,858 --> 00:42:52,319
- I'll just tell Mama.
- No, don't tell your mama.

597
00:42:52,654 --> 00:42:53,904
But there's nothing wrong in it.

598
00:42:53,988 --> 00:42:58,408
No, indeed. I'm... I'm only worried
the others will want to join us.

599
00:43:07,001 --> 00:43:09,086
Mary's settling him in.

600
00:43:11,506 --> 00:43:14,675
Cora, don't let Mary
make a fool of herself.

601
00:43:16,552 --> 00:43:19,888
By the way,
I'll be going up to London next week.

602
00:43:20,848 --> 00:43:22,015
Do you want to open the house?

603
00:43:22,100 --> 00:43:24,351
No, no. I'll just take Bates
and stay at the club.

604
00:43:24,435 --> 00:43:28,855
- I won't be more than a day or two.
- I see. Are things progressing?

605
00:43:29,941 --> 00:43:31,566
What things?

606
00:43:34,028 --> 00:43:37,364
It's just a regimental dinner.

607
00:43:38,616 --> 00:43:41,410
It's a pity
Bates spoilt the arrival this afternoon.

608
00:43:41,536 --> 00:43:45,038
He didn't spoil anything. He fell over.

609
00:43:45,540 --> 00:43:48,375
It was so undignified.
Carson hates that kind of thing.

610
00:43:48,459 --> 00:43:50,335
I don't care what Carson thinks.

611
00:43:51,796 --> 00:43:54,506
A message from the Dowager Countess,
my lady.

612
00:43:54,590 --> 00:43:58,427
She says she won't come to tea,
but she'll join you for dinner.

613
00:44:00,138 --> 00:44:02,973
Oh, Carson, I hope you weren't embarrassed
this afternoon.

614
00:44:03,057 --> 00:44:06,268
I can assure you the Duke
very much appreciated his welcome.

615
00:44:06,394 --> 00:44:07,769
I'm glad.

616
00:44:08,146 --> 00:44:10,939
- Is Bates all right?
- I think so, my lord.

617
00:44:12,317 --> 00:44:15,569
It must be so difficult
for you, all the same.

618
00:44:21,909 --> 00:44:24,077
Don't stir.

619
00:44:35,631 --> 00:44:39,301
Do you realise this is the first time
we've ever been alone?

620
00:44:39,427 --> 00:44:42,679
Then you've forgotten when I pulled you
into the conservatory at the Northbrooks'.

621
00:44:44,265 --> 00:44:46,308
- How sad.
- No, I haven't.

622
00:44:46,434 --> 00:44:50,604
It's not quite the same with 20 chaperones
hiding behind every fern.

623
00:44:52,940 --> 00:44:55,859
And are you pleased to be alone with me,
my lady?

624
00:44:55,943 --> 00:44:59,821
Oh, dear, if I answer truthfully,
you'll think me rather forward.

625
00:45:07,330 --> 00:45:11,208
I don't think we should pry.
It feels rather disrespectful.

626
00:45:11,459 --> 00:45:12,959
Oh, nonsense.

627
00:45:13,544 --> 00:45:17,130
It's your father's house, isn't it?
You've a right to know what goes on in it.

628
00:45:17,215 --> 00:45:18,340
Where does this lead?

629
00:45:18,466 --> 00:45:21,551
To the men's quarters.
With a lock on the women's side.

630
00:45:21,636 --> 00:45:25,138
- Only Mrs Hughes is allowed to turn it.
- Mrs Hughes...

631
00:45:26,557 --> 00:45:27,974
And you.

632
00:45:38,361 --> 00:45:41,530
- And here?
- A footman, I imagine.

633
00:45:50,581 --> 00:45:53,500
- Should you do that?
- Why not?

634
00:45:54,085 --> 00:45:56,670
I'm... I'm making a study
on the genus "footman".

635
00:45:56,754 --> 00:45:59,005
I seek to know
the creature's ways.

636
00:46:00,341 --> 00:46:02,008
Someone's coming!

637
00:46:08,850 --> 00:46:12,519
- Can I help you, my lady?
- We were just exploring.

638
00:46:16,566 --> 00:46:18,859
Were you looking for Thomas, Your Grace?

639
00:46:18,943 --> 00:46:22,195
No, as Lady Mary said,
we've just been exploring.

640
00:46:27,577 --> 00:46:29,578
Would you care to explore my room,
my lady?

641
00:46:29,704 --> 00:46:32,539
Of course not, Bates.
I'm sorry to have bothered you.

642
00:46:32,623 --> 00:46:34,708
We were just going down.

643
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:48,889
Why did you apologise to that man?
It's not his business what we do.

644
00:46:48,973 --> 00:46:53,101
I always apologise when I'm in the wrong.
It's a habit of mine.

645
00:46:53,644 --> 00:46:57,189
The plain fact is Mr Bates,
through no fault of his own,

646
00:46:57,273 --> 00:47:00,734
is not able to fulfil the extra duties
expected of him.

647
00:47:01,736 --> 00:47:07,532
He can't lift. He can't serve a table.
He's dropping things all over the place.

648
00:47:08,409 --> 00:47:11,745
On a night like tonight
he should act as a third footman.

649
00:47:12,622 --> 00:47:17,083
As it is, my lord, we may have to have
a maid in the dining room.

650
00:47:17,460 --> 00:47:20,629
Cheer up, Carson, there are worse things
happening in the world.

651
00:47:20,713 --> 00:47:23,298
Not worse than a maid serving a duke.

652
00:47:27,762 --> 00:47:29,930
So you're quite determined?

653
00:47:30,014 --> 00:47:33,808
It's a hard decision, your lordship.
A very hard decision.

654
00:47:34,644 --> 00:47:38,939
- But the honour of Downton is at stake.
- Don't worry, Carson.

655
00:47:39,774 --> 00:47:43,527
I know all about hard decisions
when it comes to the honour of Downton.

656
00:47:43,903 --> 00:47:45,487
Don't I, boy?

657
00:47:50,284 --> 00:47:53,245
William, you mustn't let
Thomas take advantage.

658
00:47:53,329 --> 00:47:55,830
He's only a footman, same as you.

659
00:47:56,499 --> 00:48:01,670
It's all right, Mrs Hughes. I like to keep busy.
It takes your mind of fthings.

660
00:48:01,754 --> 00:48:05,048
What things have you got
to take your mind off?

661
00:48:06,384 --> 00:48:09,886
If you're feeling homesick,
there's no shame in it.

662
00:48:10,846 --> 00:48:14,808
- No.
- It means you come from a happy home.

663
00:48:17,353 --> 00:48:20,480
There's plenty of people here
would envy that.

664
00:48:21,482 --> 00:48:23,149
Yes, Mrs Hughes.

665
00:48:31,242 --> 00:48:33,785
- Will that be all, my lord?
- Yes.

666
00:48:35,621 --> 00:48:37,664
That is... Not exactly.

667
00:48:40,668 --> 00:48:43,169
Have you recovered from your fall
this afternoon?

668
00:48:43,254 --> 00:48:47,382
I'm very sorry about that, my lord.
I don't know what happened.

669
00:48:49,010 --> 00:48:53,722
The thing is, Bates,
I said I'd give you a trial and I have.

670
00:48:54,682 --> 00:48:56,933
If it were only up to me...

671
00:48:58,477 --> 00:49:01,563
It's this question of a
valet's extra duties.

672
00:49:01,981 --> 00:49:03,898
You mean waiting a table
when there's a large party?

673
00:49:03,983 --> 00:49:06,651
That and carrying things and...

674
00:49:10,948 --> 00:49:15,410
You do see that Carson can't be expected
to compromise the efficiency of his staff.

675
00:49:15,494 --> 00:49:17,954
I do, my lord, of course I do.

676
00:49:18,456 --> 00:49:20,624
Might I make a suggestion?

677
00:49:21,125 --> 00:49:24,169
That when an extra footman is required,
the cost could come out of my wages.

678
00:49:24,462 --> 00:49:26,796
Absolutely not.
I couldn't possibly allow that.

679
00:49:26,881 --> 00:49:30,925
Because I am very eager to stay, my lord.
Very eager, indeed.

680
00:49:33,012 --> 00:49:36,598
I know you are.
And I was eager that this should work.

681
00:49:40,227 --> 00:49:44,272
You see, it is unlikely that I should find
another position.

682
00:49:44,565 --> 00:49:47,233
But surely in a smaller house,
where less is expected of you.

683
00:49:47,443 --> 00:49:48,902
It's not likely.

684
00:49:50,279 --> 00:49:52,113
I mean to help until you find something.

685
00:49:52,198 --> 00:49:57,035
I couldn't take your money, my lord. I can
take wages for a job done. That's all.

686
00:50:04,335 --> 00:50:06,961
Very good, my lord. I'll go at once.

687
00:50:07,338 --> 00:50:10,090
There's no need to rush out into the night.
Take the London train tomorrow.

688
00:50:10,174 --> 00:50:11,800
It leaves at 9:00.

689
00:50:11,884 --> 00:50:15,178
You'll have a month's wages, too.
That I insist on.

690
00:50:21,727 --> 00:50:26,022
It's a bloody business, Bates,
but I can't see any way around it.

691
00:50:26,232 --> 00:50:28,566
I quite understand, my lord.

692
00:50:37,243 --> 00:50:40,870
I'm afraid we're rather
a female party tonight, Duke.

693
00:50:41,914 --> 00:50:45,792
But you know what it's like trying
to balance numbers in the country.

694
00:50:45,876 --> 00:50:48,545
A single man outranks the Holy Grail.

695
00:50:50,214 --> 00:50:53,758
No, I'm terribly flattered
to be dining en famille.

696
00:50:54,385 --> 00:50:57,804
What were you and Mary doing
in the attics this afternoon?

697
00:50:58,889 --> 00:51:02,934
I expect Mary was just showing the Duke
the house. Weren't you?

698
00:51:05,563 --> 00:51:08,857
- Are you a student of architecture?
- Mmm, absolutely.

699
00:51:08,941 --> 00:51:12,110
Then I do hope you'll come
and inspect my little cottage.

700
00:51:12,445 --> 00:51:14,612
- It was designed by Wren.
- Ah.

701
00:51:14,697 --> 00:51:17,407
For the first earl's sister.
The attics?

702
00:51:17,491 --> 00:51:21,244
Yes. Mary took the Duke up to the attics.

703
00:51:21,620 --> 00:51:23,288
Whatever for?

704
00:51:23,748 --> 00:51:25,331
Why was this, dear?

705
00:51:25,416 --> 00:51:27,208
We were just looking around.

706
00:51:27,293 --> 00:51:31,463
Looking around? What is there
to look at but servants' rooms?

707
00:51:31,756 --> 00:51:33,423
What was the real reason, hmm?

708
00:51:33,507 --> 00:51:36,718
Don't be such a chatterbox, Edith.

709
00:51:38,429 --> 00:51:40,388
I think we'll go through.

710
00:51:40,473 --> 00:51:44,309
- I still don't understand...
- Will you hold your tongue!

711
00:51:53,986 --> 00:51:56,029
How long do you think they'll be?
I'm starving.

712
00:51:56,113 --> 00:51:58,698
- Have you settled the ladies?
- Yes, Mr Carson.

713
00:51:58,783 --> 00:52:01,326
Then it won't be long once they go through.

714
00:52:01,410 --> 00:52:03,578
You think he'll speak out?

715
00:52:03,662 --> 00:52:06,456
Do you think we'll have a duchess
to wait on? Imagine that.

716
00:52:06,540 --> 00:52:08,666
You won't be waiting on her,
whatever happens.

717
00:52:08,751 --> 00:52:12,212
There is no reason why the eldest daughter
and heiress of the Earl of Grantham

718
00:52:12,296 --> 00:52:15,215
should not wear a duchess's coronet
with honour.

719
00:52:15,299 --> 00:52:18,593
Heiress, Mr Carson? Has it been decided?

720
00:52:18,677 --> 00:52:22,055
It will be, if there's any
justice in the world.

721
00:52:22,139 --> 00:52:24,557
Well, we'll know soon enough.

722
00:52:25,601 --> 00:52:26,726
What are you doing, Anna?

723
00:52:26,811 --> 00:52:32,106
I thought I'd take something up to Mr Bates,
him not being well enough to come down.

724
00:52:32,483 --> 00:52:36,528
- You don't mind, do you, Mrs Hughes?
- I don't mind. Not this once.

725
00:52:36,612 --> 00:52:39,280
No, take him whatever he might need.

726
00:52:40,241 --> 00:52:43,910
Mr Bates is leaving
without a stain on his character.

727
00:52:44,328 --> 00:52:47,455
I hope you all observe that
in the manner of your parting.

728
00:52:47,540 --> 00:52:50,333
Well, I don't see why he has to go.
I don't mind doing a bit of extra work...

729
00:52:50,417 --> 00:52:52,252
It's not up to you.

730
00:52:52,962 --> 00:52:55,171
I'll take care of his lordship.
Shall I, Mr Carson?

731
00:52:55,256 --> 00:52:57,674
Not while you're looking after the Duke,
you won't.

732
00:52:57,758 --> 00:53:00,885
I'll see to his lordship myself.

733
00:53:32,167 --> 00:53:35,044
Mr Bates? Are you there?

734
00:53:51,979 --> 00:53:55,231
I brought something up,
in case you were hungry.

735
00:53:57,276 --> 00:53:59,152
That's very kind.

736
00:54:10,748 --> 00:54:14,208
- I'm ever so sorry you're going.
- I'll be all right.

737
00:54:16,754 --> 00:54:18,546
Of course you will.

738
00:54:19,131 --> 00:54:22,050
There's always a place for a man like you.

739
00:54:22,134 --> 00:54:25,345
Oh, yes. Something will turn up.

740
00:54:29,183 --> 00:54:31,559
Tell us when you're fixed.

741
00:54:32,019 --> 00:54:34,729
Just... drop us a line.

742
00:54:36,357 --> 00:54:38,149
Else I'll worry.

743
00:54:38,984 --> 00:54:42,028
Well, we can't have that.

744
00:55:01,590 --> 00:55:04,133
We must go and let the
servants get in here.

745
00:55:04,218 --> 00:55:06,344
I should be grateful
if we could stay just a minute more.

746
00:55:06,512 --> 00:55:09,263
I have... I have something to ask you.

747
00:55:15,896 --> 00:55:18,815
I was terribly sorry
to hear about your cousins.

748
00:55:18,899 --> 00:55:20,316
You said.

749
00:55:21,068 --> 00:55:22,110
Did you know them?

750
00:55:22,194 --> 00:55:26,114
Not well. I used to see Patrick Crawley
at the odd thing.

751
00:55:27,741 --> 00:55:31,202
I imagine it will mean
some adjustments for you all.

752
00:55:33,747 --> 00:55:38,209
To lose two heirs in one
night, it's terrible.

753
00:55:38,752 --> 00:55:41,212
- Indeed, it was terrible.
- Awful.

754
00:55:46,176 --> 00:55:48,803
But then again, it's an ill wind.

755
00:55:50,472 --> 00:55:54,308
At least Lady Mary's prospects
must have rather improved.

756
00:55:55,561 --> 00:55:57,020
Have they?

757
00:55:59,023 --> 00:56:00,606
Haven't they?

758
00:56:01,233 --> 00:56:03,359
I will not be coy

759
00:56:03,444 --> 00:56:06,029
and pretend I do not understand
your meaning,

760
00:56:06,113 --> 00:56:10,366
though you seem very informed
on this family's private affairs.

761
00:56:11,118 --> 00:56:15,371
But you ought perhaps to know
that I do not intend to fight the entail.

762
00:56:15,456 --> 00:56:17,415
Not any part of it.

763
00:56:18,959 --> 00:56:20,918
You can't be serious.

764
00:56:22,129 --> 00:56:24,672
It pains me to say it, but I am.

765
00:56:29,219 --> 00:56:32,013
You'll give up your entire estate?

766
00:56:32,264 --> 00:56:36,059
Your wife's money into the bargain,
to a perfect stranger?

767
00:56:36,226 --> 00:56:38,061
You won't even put up a fight?

768
00:56:38,145 --> 00:56:41,606
I hope he proves to be perfect,
but I rather doubt it.

769
00:56:41,690 --> 00:56:42,940
Ha.

770
00:56:43,817 --> 00:56:45,735
Very odd thing to joke about.

771
00:56:45,819 --> 00:56:48,362
No odder than this conversation.

772
00:56:50,157 --> 00:56:52,200
So, there you have it.

773
00:56:53,202 --> 00:56:56,496
But Mary will still have her settlement,
which you won't find ungenerous.

774
00:56:58,207 --> 00:57:01,626
- I'm sorry?
- I only meant that

775
00:57:02,252 --> 00:57:06,172
her portion, when she marries,
will be more than respectable.

776
00:57:06,256 --> 00:57:09,509
- You'll be pleased, I promise you.
- Oh, heavens.

777
00:57:09,593 --> 00:57:12,261
- I hope I haven't given the wrong impression.
- You know very well...

778
00:57:12,346 --> 00:57:15,598
- My dear Lord Grantham...
- Don't "My dear Lord Grantham" me!

779
00:57:15,682 --> 00:57:18,935
You knew what you were doing
when you came here.

780
00:57:19,186 --> 00:57:21,562
You encouraged Mary, all of us,
into thinking...

781
00:57:21,647 --> 00:57:25,900
Forgive me, but I came
to express my sympathies and my friendship.

782
00:57:25,984 --> 00:57:27,401
Nothing more.

783
00:57:29,279 --> 00:57:33,991
Lady Mary is a charming person.
Whoever marries her will be a lucky man.

784
00:57:35,077 --> 00:57:37,453
It will not, however, be me.

785
00:57:37,871 --> 00:57:41,833
I see, and what was it you asked me
to stay behind to hear?

786
00:57:45,921 --> 00:57:47,547
I... I forget.

787
00:58:02,146 --> 00:58:05,356
Well, aren't you coming
into the drawing room?

788
00:58:05,691 --> 00:58:10,194
I'm... I'm tired. I think I'll just slip away.
Please make my excuses.

789
00:58:10,779 --> 00:58:13,948
I'm afraid I've worn you out.
Tomorrow we can just...

790
00:58:14,032 --> 00:58:17,243
I'm leaving in the morning. Good night.

791
00:58:20,330 --> 00:58:22,582
Oh, you might tell that footman...

792
00:58:22,833 --> 00:58:26,335
- Thomas.
- Thomas. You might tell him I've gone up.

793
00:58:44,313 --> 00:58:46,314
So he slipped the hook?

794
00:58:48,483 --> 00:58:51,402
At least I'm not fishing with no bait.

795
00:59:00,537 --> 00:59:02,496
I don't believe that.

796
00:59:03,207 --> 00:59:07,168
Well, believe what you like.
He won't break the entail.

797
00:59:08,795 --> 00:59:11,380
The unknown cousin gets everything

798
00:59:12,257 --> 00:59:15,092
and Mary's inheritance
will be the same as it always was.

799
00:59:15,177 --> 00:59:17,136
Oh, how was I to know?
When the lawyer turned up, I thought...

800
00:59:17,221 --> 00:59:20,473
You weren't to and you did the right thing
to telegraph me.

801
00:59:20,599 --> 00:59:23,768
- It's just not going to come off.
- So what now?

802
00:59:25,854 --> 00:59:28,814
Well, you know how I'm fixed.

803
00:59:30,150 --> 00:59:34,695
I have to have an heiress,
if it means going to New York to find one.

804
00:59:37,074 --> 00:59:38,699
What about me?

805
00:59:41,286 --> 00:59:44,705
You... You will wish me well.

806
00:59:45,290 --> 00:59:48,167
You said you'd find me a job
if I wanted to leave.

807
00:59:48,252 --> 00:59:49,710
And do you?

808
00:59:50,712 --> 00:59:53,005
I want to be a valet.
I'm sick of being a footman.

809
00:59:53,090 --> 00:59:55,716
Yeah, Thomas, I don't need a valet.

810
00:59:57,844 --> 00:59:59,971
I thought you were
getting rid of the new one here.

811
01:00:00,055 --> 01:00:04,600
And I've done it, but I'm not sure
Carson's going to let me take over.

812
01:00:08,105 --> 01:00:10,273
And I want to be with you.

813
01:00:10,816 --> 01:00:11,983
Mmm.

814
01:00:24,121 --> 01:00:26,998
I just can't see it working, can you?

815
01:00:28,166 --> 01:00:32,086
We don't seem to have the basis
of a servant-master relationship, do we?

816
01:00:32,170 --> 01:00:35,673
- You came here to be with me.
- Among other reasons.

817
01:00:39,136 --> 01:00:42,305
And one swallow doesn't make a summer.

818
01:00:58,363 --> 01:01:01,240
- Aren't you forgetting something?
- What?

819
01:01:02,909 --> 01:01:05,411
Are you threatening me?

820
01:01:08,540 --> 01:01:11,167
Because of a youthful dalliance?

821
01:01:11,251 --> 01:01:13,252
A few weeks of madness
in a London season?

822
01:01:13,337 --> 01:01:15,171
You wouldn't hold that against me, surely?

823
01:01:15,255 --> 01:01:17,214
I would if I have to.

824
01:01:22,387 --> 01:01:26,098
And who'd believe a greedy footman
over the words of a duke?

825
01:01:26,183 --> 01:01:29,560
If you're not careful,
you'll end up behind bars.

826
01:01:30,062 --> 01:01:31,812
I've got proof.

827
01:01:33,273 --> 01:01:34,732
Mmm-hmm.

828
01:01:36,109 --> 01:01:37,818
You mean these?

829
01:01:54,252 --> 01:01:57,922
You know, my mother's always telling me
never put anything in writing.

830
01:01:58,006 --> 01:02:00,925
And now, thanks to you, I never will again.

831
01:02:01,009 --> 01:02:02,468
How did you get them?

832
01:02:03,095 --> 01:02:06,263
- You bastard.
- Don't be a bad loser, Thomas.

833
01:02:06,431 --> 01:02:07,932
Go to bed.

834
01:02:09,309 --> 01:02:11,352
Unless you want to stay.

835
01:02:44,302 --> 01:02:46,595
I think I'll turn in.

836
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:49,056
- No big announcement, then?
- No.

837
01:02:49,141 --> 01:02:52,268
Nor likely to be. He's
of from the 9:00 train.

838
01:02:52,352 --> 01:02:53,811
He never is!

839
01:02:53,895 --> 01:02:56,689
And when we've had a turkey killed
for tomorrow's dinner!

840
01:02:56,773 --> 01:03:00,025
- I wonder what she did wrong.
- She did nothing wrong.

841
01:03:00,110 --> 01:03:02,987
Not from the way his lordship was talking.

842
01:03:03,155 --> 01:03:06,240
So His Grace turned out to be graceless.

843
01:03:08,326 --> 01:03:10,411
Good night, Mrs Hughes.

844
01:03:10,495 --> 01:03:12,455
Good night, Mr Carson.

845
01:03:15,917 --> 01:03:19,462
If you knew that was your decision,
why put Mary through it?

846
01:03:19,546 --> 01:03:23,549
But I didn't know it was my decision,
my final decision, until tonight.

847
01:03:23,633 --> 01:03:28,012
But I find I cannot ruin the estate or
hollow out the title for the sake of Mary,

848
01:03:28,096 --> 01:03:30,639
even with a better man than that.

849
01:03:30,724 --> 01:03:33,225
I try to understand. I just can't.

850
01:03:33,310 --> 01:03:36,353
Well, why should you?
Downton is in my blood and in my bones.

851
01:03:36,438 --> 01:03:38,063
It's not in yours.

852
01:03:38,148 --> 01:03:40,191
And I can no more be the cause
of its destruction

853
01:03:40,275 --> 01:03:42,359
than I could betray my country.

854
01:03:42,444 --> 01:03:45,279
Besides, how was I to know
he wouldn't take her without the money?

855
01:03:45,363 --> 01:03:47,698
Don't pretend to be a child
because it suits you.

856
01:03:47,782 --> 01:03:50,701
Do you think she would've
been happy with a fortune hunter?

857
01:03:50,785 --> 01:03:52,578
She might've been.

858
01:03:52,996 --> 01:03:54,205
I was.

859
01:03:57,417 --> 01:04:01,378
Have you been happy?
Really, have I made you happy?

860
01:04:02,255 --> 01:04:03,839
Yes.

861
01:04:07,552 --> 01:04:10,930
That is, since you fell in love with me,
which, if I remember correctly,

862
01:04:11,014 --> 01:04:13,516
was about a year after we were married.

863
01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,519
Not a year. Not as long as that.

864
01:04:17,062 --> 01:04:20,523
- But it wouldn't have happened for Mary.
- Why not?

865
01:04:21,107 --> 01:04:25,110
Because I am so much nicer
than the Duke of Crowborough.

866
01:04:25,737 --> 01:04:27,029
I'll be the judge of that.

867
01:04:30,992 --> 01:04:34,036
Just don't think
I'm going to let it rest, Robert.

868
01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,664
I haven't given up by any means.

869
01:04:38,458 --> 01:04:43,003
- I must do what my conscience tells me.
- And so must I.

870
01:04:44,756 --> 01:04:48,133
And I don't want you to
think I'll let it rest.

871
01:05:00,647 --> 01:05:05,234
My lord, would it be acceptable
for Bates to ride in front with Taylor?

872
01:05:05,318 --> 01:05:07,528
Otherwise, it means getting
the other car out.

873
01:05:07,612 --> 01:05:10,030
He and His Grace are
catching the same train.

874
01:05:10,115 --> 01:05:11,949
Perfectly acceptable.

875
01:05:12,033 --> 01:05:15,411
And if His Grace doesn't like it,
he can lump it.

876
01:05:28,967 --> 01:05:31,176
You've been so kind, Lady Grantham.
Thank you.

877
01:05:31,261 --> 01:05:32,928
Goodbye, Duke.

878
01:05:33,263 --> 01:05:35,723
You'll make my farewells
to your delightful daughters?

879
01:05:35,807 --> 01:05:38,142
They'd have been down
if they'd known you were leaving so soon.

880
01:05:38,226 --> 01:05:41,520
Alas, something's come up
which has taken me quite by surprise.

881
01:05:41,605 --> 01:05:43,063
Obviously.

882
01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:46,317
Well, Grantham, this has been
a highly enjoyable interlude.

883
01:05:46,401 --> 01:05:48,736
Has it? And I feared it had
proved a disappointment.

884
01:05:48,820 --> 01:05:50,029
Not at all, not at all.

885
01:05:50,113 --> 01:05:52,573
A short stay in your lovely house
has driven away my cares.

886
01:05:52,657 --> 01:05:56,619
We ought to go, my lord,
if His Grace is to catch the train.

887
01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:01,540
Goodbye, Bates, and good luck.

888
01:06:03,168 --> 01:06:05,294
Good luck to you, my lord.

889
01:06:23,855 --> 01:06:25,189
Wait!

890
01:06:28,151 --> 01:06:31,403
Get out, Bates.
I really mustn't be late.

891
01:06:33,406 --> 01:06:36,700
Get back inside
and we'll say no more about it.

892
01:06:51,758 --> 01:06:53,926
It wasn't right, Carson.

893
01:06:54,594 --> 01:06:57,096
I just didn't think it was right.

894
01:07:14,531 --> 01:07:17,282
- First post, ma'am.
- Thank you, Ellen.

895
01:07:20,870 --> 01:07:23,789
- One for you.
- Hmm. Thank you, Mother.

896
01:07:34,217 --> 01:07:38,721
- Oh, it's from Lord Grantham.
- Really? What on earth does he want?

897
01:07:41,558 --> 01:07:43,892
He wants to change our lives.
