 　　唐顿庄园第一季第三集_8

　　[EXT. DOWNTON ABBEY, GROUNDS - DAY]
　　[Napier walks towards Cora who is strolling around the grounds.]
　　EVELYN NAPIER
　　Lady Grantham! I've come to say goodbye. They're bringing the car around to take me to the station.
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Have you said goodbye to Mary?
　　EVELYN NAPIER
　　I have.
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Will we be seeing you here again?
　　EVELYN NAPIER
　　Nothing would give me more pleasure, but I'm afraid I'm a little busy at the moment, and...I wonder if I might risk embarrassing you, because I should like to make myself clear. The truth is, Lady Grantham, I'm not a vain man. I do not consider myself a very interesting person, but I feel it's important that my future wife should think me so. A woman who finds me boring could never love me, and I believe marriage should be based on love. (chuckles) At least at the start.
　　[Cora smiles.]
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Thank you for your faith in me, Mr Napier. Your instincts do you credit. Good luck to you.
　　[They shake hands.]
　　[INT. LIBRARY - DAY]
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Did Mr Napier get off all right?
　　MR CARSON
　　He did, my lord.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　And poor Mr Pamuk has been taken care of?
　　MR CARSON
　　We got Grasby's from Thirsk in the end. They're very good and they didn't mind coming out on a Sunday.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Is everyone all right downstairs?
　　MR CARSON
　　Well, you know. He was a handsome stranger from foreign parts one minute, and the next he was as dead as a doornail. It's bound to be a shock.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Of course. Upstairs or down. It's been horrid 1 for the ladies, and for the female staff, I expect.
　　MR CARSON
　　It's particularly hard on the younger maids.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Indeed. Don't let the footmen be too coarse in front of them. Thomas likes to show off, but we must have a care for feminine sensibilities. They are finer and more fragile than our own.
　　[Mr Carson nods.]
　　[INT. SERVANTS' CORRIDOR - DAY]
　　[Mrs Hughes finds Mr Bates cringing 2 over his leg again.]
　　MRS HUGHES
　　Mr Bates?
　　[Bates straightens and pretends nothing is wrong.]
　　MRS HUGHES
　　I am going to have to insist that you tell me what is the matter.
　　MR BATES
　　I thought it was for Mr Carson to give me orders.
　　MRS HUGHES
　　Mr Carson's no better than any other man when it comes to illness. Now, tell me what it is and I'll see what I can do.
　　MR BATES
　　It's nothing, truly. I've twisted my bad leg and walked on it too soon. It'll be fine in a day or two.
　　MRS HUGHES
　　Well, if it isn't, I'm sending for the doctor.
　　[INT. DRAWING ROOM - DAY]
　　[Mary is entranced in her own gloomy thoughts. Carson enters to introduce Violet.]
　　MR CARSON
　　The Dowager Countess.
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Oh, my dears, is it really true? I--I can't believe it. Last night he looked so well. Of course, it would happen to a foreigner. It's typical.
　　LADY MARY
　　Don't be ridiculous.
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　I'm not being  ridiculous.  No  Englishman  would  dream  of  dying  in  someone  else's  house. Especially someone they didn't even know.
　　LADY SYBIL
　　Oh, Granny, even the English aren't in control of everything.
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Well, I hope we're in control of something, if only ourselves.
　　LADY MARY
　　But we're not! Don't you see that? We're not in control of anything at all!
　　[Mary leaves quickly.]
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Edith, go and tell Mary to come back at once and apologise to her grandmother.
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　No, leave her alone. She's had a shock, we all have. Just let her rest.
　　[Carson opens the door and William carries in the tea.]
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Oh, just the ticket. Nanny always said, \"Sweet tea is the thing for frayed 3 nerves.\" Though why it has to be sweet, I couldn't tell you.
　　[INT. KITCHENS - DAY]
　　GWEN
　　What did you mean, \"Mr Pamuk lived each day as if it were his last\"?
　　THOMAS
　　What I said.
　　GWEN
　　But, well, how did you know?
　　THOMAS
　　Can't keep William waiting. Gangway.
　　MISS O'BRIEN
　　I'll be asking the same question later, so you better have an answer ready.
　　[Thomas leaves with a smirk 4.]
　　MRS PATMORE
　　Daisy, where have you hidden the flour? I can't see it anywhere.
　　DAISY
　　It's just there, Mrs Patmore.
　　MRS PATMORE
　　Well, fetch it to me, then. Oh, you're all in a daze 5 today.
　　[INT. CRAWLEY HOUSE - DAY]
　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY
　　Do you think we should've gone up there? To see how they are?
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　I sent a note, but I thought I'd be in the way. Why?
　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY
　　Well, I thought Mary was rather struck with him last night, didn't you?
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　Well, it must've been frightful 6 for all of them. But there it is. In the midst of life, we are in death.
