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?

VCViolet Crawley, the Dowager Countess

Oh, it is you. I thought it was a man wearing your clothes.

It suits you.

Papa, do you agree?

RCRobert Crawley, Lord Grantham

It's certainly just the sort of thing I'd expect of you.

VCViolet Crawley, the Dowager Countess

All this endless thinking. It's very overrated.... I blame the war. Before 1914, nobody thought about anything at all.

DMrs. Drewe

It's lunacy! You've lost your mind!

Tell her!

It's true. Marigold's her daughter.

DMrs. 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!

Which was brave of you.

My aunt wanted me to use a false one, but I knew I might need proof.

DMrs. Drewe

Give that to me! [tears it up]

I have others!

DMrs. Drewe

You've cooked this up between you!

That's enough. We've got nothing formal that gives us any claim over her.

DMrs. Drewe

Only a note from her dying father!

Which I wrote.

DMrs. 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.

DMrs. Drewe

No, I don't bloody want to hear it!

[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!

VCViolet 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?

VCViolet 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.

VCViolet Crawley, the Dowager Countess

He's a man. Men don't have rights.

What's the matter, Granny?

VCViolet Crawley, the Dowager Countess

I'm just worried about Edith.

Oh, I can't think why.

VCViolet 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.

SMr. Spratt

Everyone has their troubles, m'lady.

Oh, dear.

VCViolet Crawley, the Dowager Countess

Spratt has been helping to train my new maid, Denker.

SMr. Spratt

I'd say she takes after the dachshund, m'lady.

In what way?

SMr. Spratt

She's quite untrainable.

VCViolet 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.

VCViolet 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?

VCViolet Crawley, the Dowager Countess

[soft] No. But that is not the reason.

Then what is?

VCViolet 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.

VCViolet 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.

RCRobert Crawley, Lord Grantham

Edith is obsessed with that child.

CCCora Crawley, Lady Grantham

She's a dear little thing.

RCRobert Crawley, Lord Grantham

So she is. But as a matter of fact, there is something about her.

CCCora Crawley, Lady Grantham

About Marigold? What?

RCRobert Crawley, Lord Grantham

I don't know. A sense of déjà vu. Can't quite put my finger on it.

SMSusan MacClare, Lady Flintshire

Tell me, do you find it difficult these days to get staff?

RARachel Aldridge, Lady Sinderby

Not very. But then, we're Jewish, so we pay well.
