唐顿庄园第二季第三集_1
[EXT. DOWNTON - MORNING]
[A man rides a bicycle toward the abbey. A new valet, Henry Lang, prepares Robert's clothes. William works downstairs.]
ANNA
Should we give them some more space between the beds?
LADY EDITH
Well, we could give them--
ISOBEL CRAWLEY
Not much. I'm determined1 to defend the library as a recreation room.
CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
Where are we to sit?
ISOBEL CRAWLEY
We can screen off the small library
CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
Is that all?
LADY EDITH
I suppose we--
ISOBEL CRAWLEY
Well, we could leave you the boudoir. I wanted to put the intermediaries in there, but we don't have to.
CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
How kind.
LADY SYBIL
Why will we only have officers? Surely all wounded men need to convalesce2.
DR CLARKSON
The hospital is for officers, and the whole idea is to have a complimentary3 convalescent home.
LADY SYBIL
Of course, but I don't know if we can make that an absolute rule.
ISOBEL CRAWLEY
If the world were logical, I would rather agree with you.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
Which comes as no surprise.
ISOBEL CRAWLEY
You would not, I imagine.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
You imagine right. What these men will need is rest and relaxation4. Will that be achieved by mixing ranks and putting everyone on edge?
[Violet exits and Sybil follows her into the hall.]
LADY SYBIL
Granny.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
Mm?
LADY SYBIL
Different ranks can relax together, it has been known.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
Well, don't look at me, I'm very good at mixing. We always danced the first waltz at the servants' ball, didn't we, Carson?
MR CARSON
If was an honour, my lady.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
It's a lot to ask when people aren't at their best. I'm searching for Lady Mary, Carson. Will you tell her I'm in the library?
ISOBEL CRAWLEY
Don't loiter, Edith. There's plenty to be done.
LADY EDITH
Of course, but I'm not quite what to--
ISOBEL CRAWLEY
Sybil, I want to have a quick word with you.
[Edith is left feeling lost.]
[INT. SERVANTS' HALL - DAY]
ANNA
I'm going down to the village this afternoon if anyone wants anything.
MRS HUGHES
Some stamps would be kind. I'll get you the money.
MR CARSON
I'd like to thank you all for your work this morning.
ETHEL
It's so strange to see the rooms converted into dormitories.
ANNA
But good. It was wrong for our life to chug along as if the war were only happening to other people.
DAISY
How will it be, though? Are we all working for Mrs Crawley now?
O'BRIEN
We are not.
MR CARSON
I'm sure the chain of command will be sorted out soon.
O'BRIEN
Or there'll be blood on the stairs.
MR CARSON
Thank you, Miss O'Brien.
[Lang gets up, obviously distressed7 in some way.]
[INT. LIBRARY - DAY]
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
But what do you think it meant?
LADY MARY
Really, Granny. Lavinia Swire knows Richard Carlisle. So what? One knows lots of people in London.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
LADY MARY
Aunt Rosamund said herself she didn't know what to make of it.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
LADY MARY
At least you think him a gentleman.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
The point is, do you think he's a gentleman?
LADY MARY
I'm not sure it matters much to me.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
Well, I'm going up to London to stay with Rosamund for a day or two. I think we'll have Lavinia for tea.
LADY MARY
You sound as if you're going to gobble her up.
VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM (laughs)
If only we could.
[INT. KITCHENS - DAY]
MRS PATMORE
But where are they going to eat?
MR CARSON
I understand from Mrs Crawley that they'll share the dining room with the officers who are
almost well.
MRS PATMORE
So, am I running a cantina?
DAISY
William says he's got time off between the end of his training and going overseas.
MRS HUGHES
He'll be with his father, surely?
DAISY
He's going home first, but he wants to come here for his last night.
MRS HUGHES
You wouldn't mind that, would you, Mr Carson?
MR CARSON
Certainly not. I'd be glad to wish him well on his way. Oh, for you Mr Branson.
[Branson enters and Carson hands him a letter.]
DAISY
Why do you think he's coming here?
MRS PATMORE
To see us all and say goodbye. What's wrong with that?
DAISY
Well, suppose it's something more. Suppose he's got plans.
MRS PATMORE
Well, you have to deal with that when it happens. And mind you deal fair. Now, go and grate that suet before I grow old and die.
