　　[LADY EDITH'S BEDROOM - MORNING]

　　MR BATES

　　Shall I give you a hand?

　　ANNA

　　Oh, would you? It takes half the time with two.

　　MR BATES

　　I always feel a bit sorry for Lady Edith.

　　ANNA

　　Me, too. Although I don't know why, when you think what she's got and what we haven't.

　　MR BATES

　　Mrs Hughes said she was after the other heir, Mr Patrick Crawley, the one who drowned.

　　ANNA

　　That was different. She was in love with him.

　　MR BATES

　　What happened?

　　ANNA

　　She never got her luck in. He was always set up to marry Lady Mary.

　　MR BATES

　　Then he's a braver man than I am, Gunga Din¹. Sad to think about.

　　ANNA

　　It's always sad when you love someone who doesn't love you back, no matter who you are.

　　MR BATES

　　No, I mean, it's sad that he died.

　　ANNA

　　Oh. Yes. Very sad. He was nice. Well, thank you for that. Much appreciated.

　　MR BATES

　　My pleasure. Perhaps Mr Patrick did love her back, he just couldn't say it.

　　ANNA

　　Why ever not?

　　MR BATES

　　Sometimes we're not at liberty to speak. Sometimes it wouldn't be right.

　　[INT. OFFICE BUILDING, HALLWAY - DAY]

　　SECRETARY

　　Take a seat.

　　[INT. THE DOWER HOUSE - DAY]

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　The flower show? Oh, I thought I was in for another telling off about the hospital.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　No, this time it?s the flower show. I?ve been to see old Mr Molesley's garden and his roses are the most beautiful I've ever laid eyes on.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Go on.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　You may not know it, but I believe the committee feel obliged to give you the cup for the best bloom as a kind of local tradition.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　No, no, I d—I do not know that. I thought I usually won the prize for best bloom in the village because my garden had grown the best bloom in the village.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　Yes. But you don't usually win, do you' You always win.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　Yes. I have been very fortunate in that regard.

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　But surely, when Mr Molesley's garden is so remarkable², and he's so very proud of his roses—

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　You talk of Mr Molesley's pride? What about my gardener's pride? Is he to be sacrificed on the altar of Molesley's ambition?

　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY

　　All I'm asking is that you release them from any obligation to let you win. Why not just tell them to choose whichever flower is best?

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　But that is precisely³ what they already know...and do.

　　[INT. OFFICE BUILDING, HALLWAY - DAY]

　　[Gwen exits the office and nervously⁴ rushes down the hallway.]

　　[INT. LORD GRANTHAM'S DRESSING⁵ ROOM - DAY]

　　MR BATES

　　I'm sorry, my lord, I didn't think you'd be in here.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Are my eyes deceiving me, or is one of these missing?

　　MR BATES

　　I don't know them well enough.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　No, why would you? There's a very pretty little blue one with a miniature framed in French paste. It was made for  a German prince, I forget  who. Unless it's been moved for some reason...but why would it be?

　　[EXT. COUNTRY ROAD - DAY]

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Can you help' I should be so grateful. Our horse has cast his shoe. Is there a smithy nearby?

　　STRANGER

　　Ah, you can try old Crump in the next village.

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Thank you.

　　GWEN

　　Thank you.

　　LADY SYBIL

　　See? Help is at hand. And at least it happened on the way home.

　　GWEN

　　They'll all be worried about you, and if they check on me, I'm finished.

　　[INT. SERVANTS' CORRIDOR - DAY]

　　ANNA

　　Is Her Ladyship wearing that now?

　　MISS O'BRIEN

　　Oh, no, this is for Friday night. I just thought I'd give it a press while I had the time.

　　ANNA

　　You don't know what's happened to Lady Sybil, do you' I've got the changes ready for the  other two, but there's no sign of her.

　　MISS O'BRIEN

　　Don't you start. I've had Her Majesty⁶ on at me all afternoon.

　　WILLIAM

　　Mr Carson says he'll fetch the police if she's not back soon.

　　[EXT. SMITHY - DAY]

　　STRANGER 2

　　Sorry, Miss, but Mr Crump's staying over at the Skelton estates tonight. He's working there all week.

　　LADY SYBIL (sigh)

　　Is there anyone else?

　　STRANGER 2

　　Not that I know of.

　　[EXT. COUNTRY ROAD - DAY]

　　LADY SYBIL

　　Come on, Dragon! Come on! Dragon, if you don't move now, I'll have you boiled for glue!
