 　　唐顿庄园第二季第一集_8

　　[INT. KITCHENS - EVENING]

　　[The servants sit down to dinner.]

　　ETHEL

　　I still don't understand why it was funny to make me look a fool. You weren't even there to enjoy it.

　　O'BRIEN

　　Oh, don't worry, we enjoyed it all right from down here.

　　MR CARSON

　　Miss O'Brien, Her Ladyship has asked me to take the incident no further. Don't tempt¹ me to disobey. Did I see Lady Sybil in the kitchen yesterday?

　　MRS PATMORE

　　She wants to learn some cooking.

　　DAISY

　　She says that she's gonna train to be a nurse, so she needs to know how to cook and clean and everything.

　　MR CARSON

　　Has she told Her Ladyship about this?

　　DAISY

　　It's supposed to be a surprise.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Mr Carson, it speaks well of Lady Sybil that she wants to help the wounded. Let's not give her away.

　　ETHEL

　　Why shouldn't she learn how to cook and scrub². She may need it when the war's over. Things are changing. For her lot and us. And when they do, I mean to make the most of it.

　　[Mrs Patmore laughs.]

　　ETHEL

　　I take it they ate all the pancakes last night then?

　　MRS PATMORE

　　They did.

　　[Mrs Patmore enters the next room and whistles for the dog.] MRS PATMORE

　　Here y'are.

　　[She gives the leftover³ Crepe Suzette to the dog.]

　　[INT. CRAWLEY HOUSE - DAY]

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　What are we aiming at?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　They'd like us to take a hundred wounded men, three times the number the hospital was built for.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　Well, that settles it. We'll have to convert⁴ the second day room.

　　DR CLARKSON

　　So there's to be no convalescence⁵ at all?

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　I'm afraid not. Once they can stand, they must go.

　　DR CLARKSON (sigh)

　　If only there were somewhere nearer than Farley Hall. I can't get there more than twice a week at the most.

　　[Clarkson notices Molesley taking out the tea tray.]

　　DR CLARKSON

　　Uh, should he be doing that?

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　Why not?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　I only meant with his condition.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　What condition is that?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　His lungs. Old Lady Grantham told me he's had a lot of trouble with his lungs.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　And why did she tell you that, particularly?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　She wanted me to write to the war office. She was anxious to spare him the humiliation⁶ of being refused on medical grounds.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　And who else did she wish you to take under your protection?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　William Mason, the footman at the big house. He has a-- a bad skin condition, apparently⁷, and hates people to know.

　　[Isobel gives Clarkson a stern⁸, knowing look.]

　　DR CLARKSON

　　She wanted to spare him the physical examination.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　I'm sure she did.

　　[INT. KITCHENS - DAY]

　　[Sybil stirs something on the stove. Mrs Patmore check over her shoulder.]

　　MRS PATMORE

　　What in Wonderland do you call that?

　　[Mrs Patmore sees Sybil's horrified⁹ expression.]

　　MRS PATMORE

　　I mean, I do not fully¹⁰ understand what you're trying to do, milady.

　　[Sybil shakes her head.]

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Oh, I knew it wasn't supposed to look like this.

　　MRS PATMORE

　　No, milady, I would go so far as to say there is no food on the earth that is supposed to look like that.

　　[Daisy comes over to check on Sybil.]

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Why does everything go so lumpy?

　　DAISY

　　Tell you what, chuck it out and we'll start again.

　　[Sybil nods and takes the pot off the stove.]

　　[INT. KITCHENS - EVENING]

　　[Anna and Bates sit alone at the table.]

　　ANNA

　　I don't think we should sell your mother's house. Not yet.

　　MR BATES

　　We could rent it out. Then we can save. When I have some time off, I'll go up to London and get it ready.

　　ANNA

　　Maybe I can come with you. We could do it together.

　　[Bates smiles.]

　　MR BATES

　　I've got an idea that a bit later on, if we want to...

　　ANNA

　　If we want to start a family.

　　[Bates beams.]

　　MR BATES

　　I thought, when the time is right, we might sell. And we could buy a small hotel just-- just a little one, maybe near here and we could work together and have the children with us.

　　[Anna tries not to cry through her smiles.]

　　MR BATES

　　What is it?

　　ANNA

　　Nothing. It's just...in my whole life, I never thought I could be as happy as I am at this moment.

　　[Ethel comes in an drops something on the table with a sour expression and sits down, either oblivious¹¹ or unfeeling, destroying the moment.]

　　[INT. CRAWLEY HOUSE - MORNING]

　　[Matthew steps past the gate and sees a young maid and milkman flirting¹². He takes a breath and then heads off to the train station.]

　　[EXT. TRAIN STATION - MORNING]

　　[Matthew looks for his train car, but does a double take when he sees Mary waiting. She turns around, sees him, and they walk to each other.]

　　LADY MARY

　　Don't worry, I haven't come to undo¹³ your good work of the other night.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　You must have been up before the servants.

　　LADY MARY

　　They were rather surprised to see me.

　　[Mary opens her purse.]

　　LADY MARY

　　I wanted to give you this.

　　[She hands him a little stuffed dog.]

　　LADY MARY

　　It's my lucky charm¹⁴. I've had it always. So, you must promise to bring it back without a scratch.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Won't you need it?

　　LADY MARY

　　Not as much as you. So, look after it. Please.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　I'll try not to be a hero, if that's what you're afraid of.

　　[He puts it in his pocket.]

　　LADY MARY

　　Just come back safe and sound. Did you have a happy time yesterday?

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Showed Lavinia the places I like the most. Gave her a few memories. Mary, if I don't come back--

　　LADY MARY

　　But--

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　No. If I don't, then do remember how very glad I am that we made up when we had the chance. I mean it. You send me off to war a happy man.

　　[Mary smiles. Matthew steps toward the train, then pauses.]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Will you do something for me? Will you...will you look after mother...if anything happens?

　　LADY MARY

　　Of course we will. But it won't.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　And Lavinia. She's young, she will find someone else. I hope she does, anyway, but...until she does.

　　[The conductor blows a whistle.]

　　LADY MARY

　　Goodbye then.

　　[She kissed Matthew on the cheek.]

　　LADY MARY

　　And such good luck.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Goodbye, Mary. And God bless you.

　　[Matthew gets in the train and Mary watches it take him out of sight. Out of sight, both of them are very emotional.]
