 　　唐顿庄园第一季第二集_3

　　[INT. MR CARSON'S OFFICE - DAY]

　　[William knocks on the open door.]

　　WILLIAM

　　This was at the back door.

　　[William hands Carson a letter.]

　　MR CARSON

　　Thank you, William.

　　[Mr Carson opens and reads it and his expression shifts from surprise to concern.]

　　[EXT. THE VILLAGE - DAY]

　　[Bates strolls through the village and sees Carson hurrying into The Dog and Duck, checking that no one sees him entering, but missing Bates as he walks past the hospital.]

　　[INT. DOWNTON COTTAGE HOSPITAL, WARD¹ - DAY]

　　DR CLARKSON

　　It's kind of you to take an interest.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　I'm afraid it's a case of the war horse in the drought. You know my late husband was a doctor.

　　DR CLARKSON

　　I do. I'm familiar with Dr Crawley's work on the symptoms of infection in children.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　Ah. Even I studied nursing during the South African war.

　　DR CLARKSON

　　Really?

　　[A nurse escorts a weeping woman out of the ward.]

　　DR CLARKSON

　　Very distressing². A young farmer, John Drake, a tenant³ of Lord Grantham's, came in today. It's dropsy, I'm afraid.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　May I see him?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　Yeah. By all means.

　　[Isobel walks around the screen to find the man, his legs swollen⁴ and full of sores.]

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　Is the dropsy of the liver or the heart?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　Everything points to the heart.

　　[The man seems to be having trouble breathing. He begins to cough and blood comes out as he brings a cloth to his mouth. Dr Clarkson goes to him.]

　　DR CLARKSON

　　All right, Mr Drake, you're in safe hands now.

　　[Dr Clarkson escorts Isobel past the hospital gate.]

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　What will happen to his wife?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　She may try to keep the farm on. Grantham is not a harsh landlord, but her children are young.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　What can I do to help?

　　[Dr Clarkson is surprised.]

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　If I'm to live in this village, I must have an occupation. Please, let me be useful.

　　[INT. CRAWLEY HOUSE, MATTHEW CRAWLEY'S BEDROOM - DAY]

　　MR MOLESLEY

　　He chooses his clothes himself. He puts them out at night and hangs the ones he's worn. I get to take the linen⁵ down to the laundry, but that's about all.

　　MR BATES

　　That's all?

　　MR MOLESLEY

　　\"I'll do this,\" he says. \"I'll take the other. I'll tie that.\" I'm just stood there like a chump, watching a man get dressed. To be honest, Mr Bates, I don't see the point of it.

　　[EXT. DOWNTON ABBEY, GROUNDS - DAY]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　I thought you didn't like him?

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Well, so what? I have plenty of friends I don't like.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Would you want Mary to marry one of them?

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Why do you always have to pretend to be nicer than the rest of us?

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Perhaps I am.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Then pity your wife whose fortune must go to this odd young man who talks about weekends and jobs. If Mary were to marry him, then all would be resolved.

　　[Robert and Violet pass Thomas as they enter the library.]

　　[INT. HOUSEMAIDS' BEDROOM - NIGHT]

　　[Gwen puts away a paper she's reading when Anna enters.]

　　ANNA

　　What have you got there?

　　GWEN

　　Nothing.

　　ANNA

　　What kind of nothing? You haven't got an admirer?

　　GWEN

　　I might have. And why shouldn't I?

　　ANNA

　　Don't tell Mrs Hughes. She'll bring the vicar 'round till you're exorcised.

　　GWEN

　　How are we supposed to find husbands if we're never allowed to see any men?

　　ANNA

　　Perhaps she thinks the stork⁶ brings them.

　　[The get into their beds.]

　　ANNA

　　Hey. Lady Mary's in for a surprise. Thomas was in the library when old Violet came in from the garden. Seems they want to fix her up with Mr Crawley.

　　GWEN

　　Well, it makes sense. She was going to marry Mr Patrick.

　　ANNA

　　Would she have, though? When it came to it? That's the question.

　　[INT. CRAWLEY HOUSE - DAY]

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　Ah, there you are, dear. I was hoping you'd be home in time.

　　[Matthew shrugs⁷ off his own coat, and Molesley's assistance.]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　In time for what?

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　I've been paid the compliment of a visit.

　　[They enter the living room where Cora and Violet are sitting.]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Hello.

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Good afternoon, Cousin Matthew.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Afternoon.

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　We were just saying how charming this room is now.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Mm. It always seemed rather dark when my mother in law lived here. But then she made everything rather dark.

　　[Violet chuckles⁸. Molesley offers Matthew a tray of tea cakes.]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　No, thank you.

　　MR MOLESLEY

　　Cup--cup of tea, sir?

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　It's all right, I'll help myself.

　　[The  ladies  can  see  how  uncomfortable  Matthew's  stubborn  self-sufficiency  is  making Molesley.]

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　So, Molesley, how do you find being home again? Your father must be glad you're back.

　　MR MOLESLEY

　　He is, Your Ladyship.

　　[Matthew takes one of the teacakes from the tray Molesley is holding and Violet watches painfully.]

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Might I give you this cup?

　　MR MOLESLEY

　　Ma'am.

　　[Molesley takes the teacup.]

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　I'm afraid we must be going.

　　[The ladies rise.]

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Thank you.

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　You'll think about it?

　　[Isobel nods.]

　　[INT. KITCHENS - DAY]

　　[Anna washes something alone. She hears someone stumble on the stair and hurt himself. She finds Carson scrambling⁹ to pick up some fallen food from his bag in the pantry.]

　　MR CARSON

　　Oh, I thought no one was here.

　　ANNA

　　Can I help, Mr Carson?

　　MR CARSON

　　Er...no. No, thank you, Anna.

　　[Mr Carson walks out with the bag full of food.]
