I'm trying to bring her around, but I wish you hadn't jumped the gun.
I know. But I had some bad news today and I needed to see her.
You mean you were right about Marigold's father? I'm very sorry to hear it. But if you could just give me some time...
I don't have time, Mr. Drewe!
Granny, what do you think?
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
Oh, it is you. I thought it was a man wearing your clothes.
Papa, do you agree?
RC Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham
It's certainly just the sort of thing I'd expect of you.
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
All this endless thinking. It's very overrated.... I blame the war. Before 1914, nobody thought about anything at all.
Oh God, Edith! Won't you wait and talk to them about it?
If I talked to anyone, it'd be you.
...
I can't stay, Tom. Not if I'm ever going to be happy at all.
D Mrs. Drewe
It's lunacy! You've lost your mind!
It's true. Marigold's her daughter.
D Mrs. Drewe
It's a lie! I don't know what she's holding over you, but you can't let her get away with it!
I have a copy of her birth certificate. It's in French, but you can read my name clearly enough!
My aunt wanted me to use a false one, but I knew I might need proof.
D Mrs. Drewe
Give that to me! [tears it up]
D Mrs. Drewe
You've cooked this up between you!
That's enough. We've got nothing formal that gives us any claim over her.
D Mrs. Drewe
Only a note from her dying father!
D Mrs. Drewe
How could you do this? I'm your wife, yet you have lied and cheated and used me shamefully! If you had taken a mistress you couldn't have been more false!
Mrs. Drewe, I know you don't want to hear this, but I'm very grateful.
D Mrs. Drewe
No, I don't bloody want to hear it!
[at a horse-racing event]
Let me not fall in front of Rose.
I'm glad her opinion matters.
I'd rather not look like a fool quite yet. She can discover it gently.
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
I think she's cracked.
[looks at her illegitimate daughter in her arms] Well, we're together, darling. And I know it's not ideal, but it's such an improvement on being apart that I think we should celebrate. I'll order ice cream, and a glass of champagne, and we'll be as jolly as you like!
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
I've been awake the whole night. There's only one thing we can say. We have to tell Cora.
Well, isn't that rather a betrayal?
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
If anything happens to Edith and Cora learns later we knew all along, she would never forgive us. And I wouldn't blame her. You see, as a mother it is her right.
But you don't plan to tell Robert? He is Edith's father.
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
He's a man. Men don't have rights.
What's the matter, Granny?
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
I'm just worried about Edith.
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
My dear, a lack of compassion can be as vulgar as an excess of tears.
How are you, Spratt? Well, I hope.
S Mr. Spratt
Everyone has their troubles, m'lady.
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
Spratt has been helping to train my new maid, Denker.
S Mr. Spratt
I'd say she takes after the dachshund, m'lady.
S Mr. Spratt
She's quite untrainable.
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
[disapproving] Spratt.
You needn't pretend. Your positions have changed. You the widow in the Dower House, Isobel a great lady presiding over a great house. But you simply have to be bigger than that.
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
Is that what you think of me? That I care about her change of rank?
Well, you're not exactly pleased, are you?
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
[soft] No. But that is not the reason.
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
Well, if you must know, I've got used to having a companion. A friend. You know, someone to talk things over with.
Well, you'll still have us.
VC Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess
You have your own lives and so you should. But Isobel and I had a lot in common [wistful] and I shall miss that.
RC Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham
Edith is obsessed with that child.
CC Cora Crawley, Lady Grantham
She's a dear little thing.
RC Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham
So she is. But as a matter of fact, there is something about her.
CC Cora Crawley, Lady Grantham
About Marigold? What?
RC Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham
I don't know. A sense of déjà vu . Can't quite put my finger on it.
Daddy, Mummy, this is Atticus.
SM Susan MacClare, Lady Flintshire
What a peculiar name. [walks away]
SM Susan MacClare, Lady Flintshire
Tell me, do you find it difficult these days to get staff?
RA Rachel Aldridge, Lady Sinderby
Not very. But then, we're Jewish, so we pay well.
