  [INT. LAVINIA'S GUEST BEDROOM - NIGHT]
  LADY MARY
  Lavinia?
  [Mary finds Lavinia crying in bed.]
  LAVINIA
  You're back.
  [Mary nods.]
  LAVINIA
  How did you get on?
  LADY MARY
  All right, I think. How about you?
  LAVINIA
  Matthew's told me to go home. He says he won't see me again. He feels he has to set me free, as he put it. I've tried to tell him I don't care, but he won't listen.
  LADY MARY
  Then you must keep telling him.
  LAVINIA
  Yes, but you see, it isn't just not walking. Today he told me we could never be lovers, because all that's gone as well. I didn't realise. It's probably obvious to anyone with a brain, but I didn't realise.
  LADY MARY
  No. No, nor did I.
  [Mary sits on the bed as she tries to process this news.]
  LAVINIA
  And he feels it would be a crime to tie me down, to tie down any woman to the life of a childless
  nun 1. He thinks I'd hate him in the end. I'm sorry if I've shocked you, but there's no one else I could talk to about it, and when you came in, I--
  LADY MARY
  I'm not shocked. I'm just stunned 2. And desperately 3 sad.
  LAVINIA
  I'll die if I can't be with him.
  [INT. DINING ROOM - MORNING]
  [Robert reads the newspaper.]
  ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
  Good God Almighty 4. "The engagement is announced between Lady Mary Josephine Crawley, eldest 5 daughter of the Earl and Countess of Grantham, and Sir Richard Carlisle, son of Mr and the late Mrs Mark Carlisle of Morningside Edinburgh." Is this why you went to see him? Why didn't you say it'd be in today's paper?
  LADY MARY
  I didn't know.
  ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
  Well, surely he asked your permission?
  LADY MARY
  I don't think asking permission is his strongest suit.
  ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
  That's very high handed. You can't let him get away with it.
  LADY EDITH
  Well, it's done now.
  [Mr Carson steps forward.]
  ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
  What is it?
  MR CARSON
  William's wedding, my lord. If it can be arranged for this afternoon, the indoor staff would like to attend.
  ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
  We don't yet know if Mr Travis will agree to do it.
  MR CARSON
  I'm afraid he has very little time to make up his mind.
  [INT. THE DOWER HOUSE - MORNING]
  REVEREND TRAVIS
  This boy is an extremist. How can we know that these are his true wishes? Maybe the kitchen maid somehow hopes to catch at an advantage.
  VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
  Well, what advantage would that be?
  REVEREND TRAVIS
  Some widow's dole 6 given by a grateful nation?
  VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
  Mr Travis, can I remind you William Mason has served our family well. At the last, he saved the life, if not the health, of my son's heir. Now he wishes before he dies to marry his sweetheart.
  REVEREND TRAVIS
  Yes, but—
  VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
  You cannot imagine that we would allow you to prevent this happening in case his widow "claimed her dole".
  REVEREND TRAVIS
  No, but--
  VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
  I have had an interest in this boy. I tried and failed to save him from conscription, but I will certainly attend his wedding. Is that an argument in its favour?
  REVEREND TRAVIS
  Of course, but—
  VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
  Finally, I would point out your living is in Lord Grantham's gift. Your house is on Lord Grantham's land, and the very flowers in your church are from Lord Grantham's garden. I hope it is not vulgar in me to suggest that you find some way to overcome your scruples 7.
  [INT. ETHEL'S HOUSE - DAY]
  MRS HUGHES
  You can't have expected much more. Not when those letters all went unanswered.
  ETHEL
  I don't know what I expected, but you can't help hoping.
  MRS HUGHES
  Have you found any work?
  ETHEL
  Bit of scrubbing. There aren't many places I can take the baby.
  MRS HUGHES
  What do you tell them?
  ETHEL
  That my husband died at the front.
  MRS HUGHES
  It's funny, we have a new maid, Jane, who really is a war widow with a child and we respect her for it. But then, we believe her story.
