Cora Crawley, Lady Grantham and Lady Edith Crawley in “Unfinished Business”

CCCora Crawley, Lady Grantham

You mustn't make him wait forever.

Lady Edith Crawley

I love him. I'd accept him in a trice if weren't for Marigold.

CCCora Crawley, Lady Grantham

You say he'll let you keep her.

Lady Edith Crawley

That's not the problem.

CCCora Crawley, Lady Grantham

What is?

Lady Edith Crawley

If I stay silent, there's a lie at the heart of my marriage. But if I tell him the truth, will I ruin it?

CCCora Crawley, Lady Grantham

Edith, you're a grown woman and I can't force you, but you cannot be married to a man and leave him out of a secret like this. It's not possible. And you won't be happy.

Lady Edith Crawley

How happy am I now?
