　　[INT. THE DOWER HOUSE - DAY]
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　The war may be at an end, but the upheaval 1 is only beginning.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　Oh, how right you are. That is why Downton Abbey still has such an important role to play.
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Well, dear me, there's so much to be done. When you think of all the children laid up with a disease.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　But they're making such advances now aren't they? Now, could we talk about the lecture programme for Downton--?
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　We must, we must. If only I wasn't haunted by those women whose jobs will be snatched from them when the boys come home.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　But we have to find work for our heroes, don't we? That must be our priority.
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Mm.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　However hard that might sound.
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Mm. As you say. And what about those wretched refugees? What will become of them?
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　Ah. Now you've struck a chord.
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Have I really? Oh, thank heaven.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　What do you mean?
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Mm? Nothing. Only the thought of those poor men and women flung across Europe far from their homelands, and so much in need of your help.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　My help? Why do you say that?
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　When it comes to helping 2 refugees, your experience renders your value beyond price. One of the organisers said those words.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　Which organiser?
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　I forget.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　What about running Downton? I can't do both.
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Well, I suppose you must decide what is more important: exercise classes and lectures on pottery 3, or helping men and women build a new life.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　I must go. But I will think about it.
　　[Violet rings the bell.]
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　Are you coming to Cousin Robert's dinner tonight?
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Are you?
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　Well, I didn't feel I could say no. He sent a note this morning and was most insistent 4. What's it about?
　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　I have no idea. But we'll talk there. We're onto something for you. We mustn't let the iron grow cold,
　　[Isobel smiles and exits.]
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY (to the butler) Thank you.
　　[INT. LORD GRANTHAM'S DRESSING 5 ROOM - EVENING]
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　You know there is nothing more ill-bred than to steal other people's servants.
　　LADY MARY
　　But you're not "other people". And Carson brought me up.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　What does he say?
　　LADY MARY
　　That he won't do anything without your permission.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM (chuckles/scoffs)
　　Which, of course, is so cunning. How can I refuse a man who says that? What do you say, Bates?
　　MR BATES
　　I say Mr Carson must have the last word on where he lives and works.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　You're ganging up on me.
　　[Mary smiles a little and gives her Papa a kiss.]
　　LADY MARY
　　You're a darling and I love you. Now, what's this dinner all about?
　　[Robert looks upset.]
　　LADY MARY
　　Won't you tell me?
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　You'll find out.
