 　　唐顿庄园第一季第三集_5

　　[INT. GUEST BEDROOM - NIGHT]

　　THOMAS

　　Can I adjust it, sir?

　　[Thomas fixes the vest strap¹.]

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Now, I'm relying on you to see that I go downstairs properly dressed.

　　THOMAS

　　Don't worry, sir. I've got sharp eyes for anything out of order.

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Then I put myself entirely² in your hands.

　　THOMAS

　　You do right, sir.

　　[Thomas hands Pamuk a bowtie.]

　　THOMAS

　　I should love to visit Turkey.

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Yes, it's a...it's a wonderful country.

　　[Pamuk can't tie his bowtie and gives up in frustration³.]

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　My man always does this. Can you?

　　[Thomas ties the bowtie.]

　　THOMAS

　　I'm very attracted to the Turkish culture.

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Then I hope your chance will come to something.

　　THOMAS

　　I hope so, too.

　　[Thomas cups Pamuk's face in his hand, but Pamuk jerks away from his touch.]

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　You forget yourself!

　　THOMAS

　　I--I'm sorry, sir. I--

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　That will teach you to believe what the English say about foreigners. I ought to report you.

　　THOMAS

　　I think...you mist--

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　I misunderstood nothing. But...I will make you an offer.

　　[Pamuk turns around to fix his bowtie.]

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Later tonight I may need some help with the...geography of house.

　　THOMAS

　　The geography?

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Yes. I'm not sure yet, but I may wish to pay someone a visit. If that is the case, you will help me...

　　[Pamuk turns back around.]

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　And I will say nothing of your behaviour.

　　[Thomas nods.]

　　[INT. DINING ROOM - NIGHT]

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　I don't understand. Why--why would she want to be a secretary?

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　She wants a different life.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　But why? I should far prefer to be a maid in a large and pleasant house than work from dawn till dusk in a cramped⁴

　　and gloomy office. Don't you agree, Carson?

　　MR CARSON

　　I do, my lady.

　　LADY MARY

　　Why are we talking about this? What does it matter?

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　It matters that the people that live and work here are content.

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Of course. We should be helping⁵ Gwen if that's what she wants.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　I agree. Surely we must all encourage those less fortunate to improve their lot where they can.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Not if it isn't in their best interests.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　Isn't the maid a better judge of that than we are?

　　LADY MARY

　　What do you say, Mr Pamuk? Should our housemaid be kept enslaved or forced out into the

　　world?

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Why are you English so curious about other people's lives? If she wishes to leave, and the law permits it, then let

　　her go.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　But perhaps the law should not permit it, for the common good.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　So, you hanker for the days of serfdom.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　I hanker for a simpler world. Is that a crime?

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　I do dream of a simpler world, as long as we can keep our trains and our dentistry.

　　[They chuckle⁶.]

　　LADY MARY

　　I wish I shared your enthusiasm. Our dentist is horrid⁷.

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Well, why go to him, then?

　　LADY MARY

　　Well, he treated all of us when we were children. You know how the English are about these

　　things.

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Mm.

　　[Matthew watches Mary and Pamuk intently as they smile and chuckle at the other end of the table.]

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Well, the next time you feel a twinge, you must come to Istanbul.

　　LADY MARY

　　Wouldn't the journey be painful?

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Sometimes we must endure a little pain in order to achieve satisfaction.

　　EVELYN NAPIER

　　Lady Mary rode very well today.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Why did you send Lynch back?

　　LADY MARY

　　I had my champions to left and right. It was enough.

　　[Matthew doesn't seem to like that comment.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Did you enjoy the hunt today, Mr Napier? Mary said you had a tremendous run.

　　EVELYN NAPIER

　　It was like something out of a trollop novel.

　　[Robert chuckles⁸.]

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　What about you, Mr Pamuk? Was your day successful?

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Oh, yes, Lady Grantham. I can hardly remember a better one.

　　[Mary seems to tense uncomfortably at the comment. Matthew isn't pleased.]

　　[INT. DRAWING ROOM - EVENING]

　　[Robert watches Mary talking with Napier, Pamuk, and Matthew Crawley.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Mary has more suitors tonight than the Princess Aurora⁹.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Will she judge them sensibly?

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Oh, no one's sensible at her age. Nor should they be. That's our role.

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Well, if you'll excuse me.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Was it fun to be back in the saddle?

　　LADY MARY

　　Yes. Although, I'll pay for it tomorrow.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Would you ever come out with me? Or aren't we friends enough for that?

　　LADY MARY

　　Oh, I think it might be--

　　EVELYN NAPIER

　　That run reminded me of a day last month up in Cheshire.

　　[Pamuk catches Mary's eye and nods for her to join him.]

　　EVELYN NAPIER

　　We came down the side of a hill and--

　　LADY MARY

　　Excuse me.

　　[Both men are surprised by her rudeness and obvious preference for Pamuk.]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　It seems we must brush up on our powers of fascination¹⁰.

　　EVELYN NAPIER

　　I was a fool to bring him here.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Don't you like him?

　　EVELYN NAPIER (scoffs)

　　Well, I like him very much, but so does everyone else, unfortunately.

　　[Edith smiles at Matthew and moves his way. Napier notices.]

　　EVELYN NAPIER

　　Excuse me.

　　[Napier leaves. Matthew notices as Edith steps up to him. He gives her a polite smile.]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　I hope I didn't wear you out today.

　　LADY EDITH

　　Not at all. I enjoyed it. We must do it again.

　　[Matthew watches Mary as Edith talks. Pamuk leaves the room.]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Next time, let's take my mother. She was so jealous she made me promise she could come with us.

　　LADY EDITH

　　Of course. How nice that would be.

　　[Thomas notices Mary walk past him to follow Pamuk out of the room.]

　　LADY MARY

　　What is it?

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Is this picture really a Della Francesca?

　　LADY MARY

　　I think so. The second earl brought back several paintings from--

　　[Pamuk grabs Mary's face and kisses her furiously, pushing her against the wall.]

　　LADY MARY (whisper)

　　Mr Pamuk!

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Let me come to you tonight, please.

　　LADY MARY

　　I can't think what I have said that has led you to believe--

　　KEMAL PAMUK

　　Please. I don't know when we'll meet again. So let it be tonight.

　　[Pamuk leans in to kiss her again, but Mary pushes him back.]

　　LADY MARY

　　Mr Pamuk, I will not repeat your words to my father since I should hate to see you cast out into the darkness, but

　　can we agree to consider them unsaid? Now, if you'll excuse me, I shall rejoin my mother and sisters.

　　[Mary returns to the drawing room. Pamuk watches her go, then smiles.]
