　　[INT. GREAT HALL - EVENING]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Somehow we got lost and then we were trapped behind some Germans for three days, and when we got out of that, we stumbled into a field dressing¹ station and we were immediately admitted. But we weren't in any danger, so they didn't inform our unit.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Well, they should've jolly well told us when you got back to base.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　I hope you weren't really worried.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Oh, you know us. We like to be sure of our hero at the front.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　I beg your pardon, milord, but the Dowager Countess is leaving.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Ah.

　　[Robert leaves.]

　　LADY MARY

　　What will you do with the rest of your leave?

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Well, since mother isn't here, I think I'll run up to London and see Lavinia.

　　LADY MARY

　　Ah.

　　[Mary nods, trying not to show her disappointment.]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　I got your letter about Carlisle.

　　LADY MARY

　　I hope you'll approve. I know you don't like him much now--

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　I hardly know him, but I'm sure I'll like him when I do. That's if he's good to you. If he's not, he'll have me to answer to.

　　[Anna walks to the servants' door with a tray and meets Bates.]

　　MR BATES

　　Who would've thought an amateur concert could be the summit of all joy? I've lived in such a fog of misery² since I left you. I think I'd forgotten what happiness is.

　　ANNA

　　Me too. But now we must get used to feeling happy, and trust it.

　　MR BATES

　　God, I want to.

　　[They smile at each other and Anna continues through the servants' door. Thomas and O'Brien have been watching.]

　　O'BRIEN

　　Love's young dream, I don't think.

　　THOMAS

　　I'm not sure I care much.

　　O'BRIEN

　　You going soft in your old age?

　　THOMAS

　　I don't like him because he's a patronizing bastard³ who sneaks⁴ behind me back, but I've got other things to worry about.

　　O'BRIEN

　　Really? That's interesting.

　　THOMAS

　　Why?

　　O'BRIEN

　　Because obviously I hold a grudge⁵ longer than you.

　　[William talks with Mrs Patmore and Daisy.]

　　MRS PATMORE

　　I knew nothing bad had happened. I felt it in me waters.

　　WILLIAM

　　What about you? Did you have me boxed up and buried?

　　DAISY

　　I'm glad you're all right, honest.

　　WILLIAM

　　You should be. It's the thought of you that keeps me going.

　　[A maid whispers something to Mrs Hughes. Major Bryant talks to another officer behind them.]

　　MAJOR BRYANT

　　I think it will.

　　[INT. SERVANTS' CORRIDOR - EVENING]

　　[Mrs Hughes walks down the dark stairway.]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Hello? Hello?

　　[Ethel steps slowly out of Mrs Hughes's dark sitting room.]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Ethel! What on earth are you doing here?

　　ETHEL

　　I had to come, Mrs Hughes. I'm sorry to push in, but I was sitting alone until I couldn't stand it no more. You've got to help me.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　I haven't got to do anything. But what do you mean? "Help" with what? Is this about Major Bryant?

　　[Ethel nods.]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　I blame myself for not stepping in earlier, that I will admit. How long had it been going on?

　　ETHEL

　　Long enough to get me pregnant. Mrs Hughes, I'm going to have a baby.
