　　[INT. MRS HUGHES'S SITTING ROOM - NIGHT]

　　[Mrs Hughes gets up from her desk and hands Jane an envelope.]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　I think that's everything we owe.

　　JANE

　　Thank you, Mrs Hughes.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　I'm sorry you're going, Jane. You're a good worker. I wish you well.

　　JANE

　　I'm sorry, too, Mrs Hughes. But in the end I think it's for the best. For everyone.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　When all is said and done, my dear, you may be right.

　　[Jane leaves and Mrs Hughes considers the matter for a moment. She totally knows.]

　　[INT. HONEYMOON¹ GUEST BEDROOM - NIGHT]

　　[Mr and Mrs Bates lie naked under the covers, gazing at each other.]

　　MR BATES

　　Well...Mrs Bates...you've had your way with me.

　　[They giggle².]

　　MR BATES

　　I just hope you don't live to regret it.

　　ANNA BATES

　　I couldn't regret it. No matter what comes. I know only that I am now who I was meant to be.

　　MR BATES

　　I'm not worthy³ of you, that's all I know. And they'll call me names for pulling you into my troubles.

　　[Anna sighs.]

　　ANNA BATES

　　Mr Bates, we've waited long enough to be together, you and I, and now that we're man and wife, can we let that be enough just for this one night?

　　[They kiss.]

　　[EXT. CEMETERY⁴ - DAY]

　　REVEREND TRAVIS

　　Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

　　[The minister throws dirt on Lavinia's coffin⁵.]

　　REVEREND TRAVIS

　　In sure and certain hope of the resurrection to eternal life through our Lord Jesus Christ, who shall change our vile⁶ body that may be like unto his glorious body according to the mighty⁷ working whereby he is able to subdue⁸ all things to himself. Amen.

　　ALL

　　Amen.

　　LADY MARY

　　Would you give him a moment?

　　SIR RICHARD CARLISLE

　　Of course not, I understand.

　　[The mourners leave except Matthew. Mary approaches him by Lavinia's grave. Anna Bates, Mrs Hughes, Mr Carson, and Mr Bates walk back to the house.]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　We better get moving if we're to be back there before they arrive.

　　ANNA

　　Mrs Patmore and Thomas will go ahead in the trap. They'll sort it out between them.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Mm, I've no doubt Thomas will have everything sorted out.

　　[Mrs Hughes gives Carson a significant look.]

　　MR CARSON

　　I'm sorry Mrs Hughes, but it's no good thinking that we'll get shot of him now. Why doesn't that come as a surprise?

　　[Daisy sees Matthew standing⁹ at William's grave as she walks back. He sees her and she goes to him.]

　　MR MASON

　　I've been hoping I might meet you here one day. I expect you come as often as I try to do.

　　DAISY MASON

　　It was a funeral...of a lady that was going to marry Mr Crawley.

　　MR MASON

　　I heard about that. There's nothing so wrong as when young folks die.

　　[Daisy wipes her eyes.]

　　MR MASON

　　Hey, needn't hide your tears from me, love.

　　[He hands her a handkerchief.]

　　MR MASON

　　It does me good to see how much you loved him. It does.

　　[Back at Lavinia's grave.]

　　LADY MARY

　　You must tell me if there's anything I can do. Anything at all.

　　MATTHEW

　　Thank you, but I don't think so.

　　[Mary nods and turns to go.]

　　MATTHEW

　　That  night  when  we  were  dancing  and  Lavinia  came  downstairs...she heard.  She...she saw...everything.

　　LADY MARY

　　How terrible for her. I'm so sorry.

　　MATTHEW

　　Because of what she saw, she thought we should cancel the wedding. That I belonged with you, not with her. She gave up because of us. She said to me when she was dying, "Isn't this better?" I know it's a cliché, but...I believe she died of a broken heart, because of that kiss. And we were the ones who killed her.

　　LADY MARY

　　Oh, Matthew.

　　MATTHEW

　　We could never be happy now, don't you see? We are cursed, you and I. And there's nothing to be done about it. Let's be strong, Mary. And let's accept...that this is the end.

　　LADY MARY

　　Of course it's the end. How could it not be? [Carlisle walks up.]

　　SIR RICHARD CARLISLE

　　I'm so very sorry about this.

　　MATTHEW

　　Thank you.

　　SIR RICHARD CARLISLE

　　Can I walk you up to the house or, er...?

　　LADY MARY

　　Certainly you can. I want you to.

　　[Mary and Carlisle walk arm in arm back to the house, Mary just as upset as Matthew. Robert and Violet visit with Dr Clarkson and Reverend Travis. Robert looks over to see Branson talking to Sybil and goes to them.]

　　LADY SYBIL

　　It's so sad.

　　BRANSON

　　Yes.

　　ROBERT

　　Why are you here ?

　　BRANSON

　　To pay my respects to Miss Swire, and to see Sybil.

　　ROBERT

　　Lady Sybil.

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Oh, Papa, what's the point in all that nonsense?

　　ROBERT

　　I suppose you'll go to Dublin now. Isn't that your plan?

　　LADY SYBIL

　　In a day or two. Mama is well again and I see no reason to delay. Although, I do so wish we could have parted friends.

　　ROBERT

　　What about you? Do you want to "part friends"?

　　BRANSON

　　I do. Although, I don't expect to.

　　[Branson and Sybil turn to go.]

　　ROBERT

　　All right.

　　[They stop and turn back around.]

　　LADY SYBIL

　　What?

　　ROBERT

　　Well, if I can't stop you, I see no profit in a quarrel. You'll have a very different life from the one you might have lived, but if you're sure it's what you want.

　　[Sybil looks at Branson with a smile.]

　　LADY SYBIL

　　I am.

　　ROBERT

　　Then you may take my blessing¹⁰ with you, whatever that means.

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Oh, Papa. It means more than anything!

　　[She hugs him with delight.]

　　LADY SYBIL

　　More than anything!

　　ROBERT

　　If you mistreat her, I will personally have you torn to pieces by wild dogs.

　　BRANSON

　　I'd expect no less.

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Will you come over for the wedding?

　　ROBERT

　　We'll see. We'll talk about that later. And there'll be some money. But not much.

　　[Sybil smiles and kisses him on the cheek. Sybil and Branson walk off hand in hand. Violet approaches Robert and they follow.]

　　VIOLET

　　So, you've given in?

　　ROBERT

　　She would've gone anyway.

　　[Violet makes a noise at that.]

　　ROBERT

　　And perhaps we should let Lavinia's last gift to us be a reminder¹¹ of what really matters. Of course, you'll think that's soft.

　　VIOLET

　　Well, not at all. The aristocracy has not survived by its intransigence¹². Oh, no, no, we must work with what we've got to minimize the scandal.

　　ROBERT

　　But what have we got to work with?

　　VIOLET

　　Well, you'd be surprised. He's political, isn't he? And a writer. Well, I could make something out of that. And there's a family called Branson with a place not far from Cork¹³. I believe they have a connection with the Howards. Well, surely, we can hitch¹⁴ him onto them.

　　[INT. SERVANTS' CORRIDOR - DAY]

　　[The servants arrive home from the funeral. Mrs Patmore comes out of the kitchen when she sees them.]

　　MRS PATMORE

　　Mr Bates.

　　MR BATES

　　Are you all right, Mrs Patmore?

　　MRS PATMORE

　　I'm all right. There are two men waiting for you in the servants' hall.

　　[Mrs Patmore looks worried. Bates and Anna walk to the servants' hall. Mrs Hughes and Carson see the men and turn back to watch Mr Bates enter.]

　　MR BATES

　　Are you looking for me?

　　POLICEMAN

　　John Bates?

　　MR BATES

　　Yes.

　　POLICEMAN

　　You are under arrest on the charge of wilful¹⁵ murder. You are not obliged to say anything unless you desire to do so. Whatever you say will be taken down in writing and may be given in evidence against you upon your trial.

　　MR BATES

　　I understand.

　　[The other policeman takes Bates's wrist.]

　　ANNA BATES

　　No. No--

　　MR BATES

　　Please...do whatever is required.

　　[The policeman cuffs¹⁶ Bates.]

　　MR BATES

　　I love you.

　　MRS BATES

　　And I love you. For richer, for poorer, for better, for worse.

　　[Anna kisses him.]

　　POLICEMAN

　　Come along, sir.

　　[They lead Bates down the corridor, past all of the servants. Anna Bates stands in the servants hall watching after them, lip trembling.]
