Downton Abbey · Season 1, Episode 15

Edith, Rosamond and others in “Unfinished Business”

Edith

I'm not even sure which frightens me most: What may have happened to Michael or the baby.

RRosamond

What do you propose to do?

Edith

It's...hard to say the words. But...I've decided to get rid of it.

RRosamond

How terrible that is to hear.

Edith

Please don't pretend you won't be relieved when I do.

Rosamund

I will support you whatever you decide. Just as Cora will and Robert.

Edith

That sounds like a speech from The Second Mrs. Tanquerary but you don't mean a word of it.

Rosamund

I do.

Edith

So I'd be welcome in your drawing room, would I? "Have you met my niece and her charming bastard?"

Rosamund

I refuse to be shocked.
