 　　唐顿庄园第二季第四集_6

　　[EXT. THE VILLAGE - DAY]
　　MRS PATMORE
　　I had to get out of that kitchen if I'm not to be found dead under the table. It's like cooking a banquet 1 three times a day.
　　DAISY
　　It is a lot of extra work, whatever they say. Even with the helpers. MRS PATMORE
　　Huh. Don't think they lighten 2 the load.
　　[They see a bunch of war-wounded men walking to the Crawley house.] MRS PATMORE
　　Mrs Bird? What's going on?
　　MRS BIRD
　　I knew I'd be found out sooner or later. At least it's you.
　　MRS PATMORE
　　Found out doing what?
　　MRS BIRD
　　What does it look like?
　　MRS PATMORE
　　Well, I don't know what it looks like. Except some kind of soup kitchen.
　　MRS BIRD
　　You better come inside.
　　[INT. CRAWLEY HOUSE, KITCHEN - DAY]
　　[The men gather to get food.]
　　MRS BIRD
　　One at a time. Take a piece of bread
　　MRS PATMORE
　　Right. Daisy, stand there. Give them a bowl and a spoon. When did all this start?
　　MRS BIRD
　　That fella turned up asking for food. Then he came back next day with a friend. And here we are.
　　DAISY
　　What does Mrs Crawley say?
　　MRS BIRD
　　She doesn't know yet. I suppose she'll put a stop to it when she gets back from France.
　　MRS PATMORE
　　I hope not.
　　MRS BIRD
　　To be honest, Mrs Patmore, I'm not sure I can manage much longer.
　　MRS PATMORE
　　Well, how often do you do it?
　　MRS BIRD
　　Plan to get it down to once a week and give 'em only the cheapest cuts, but it is my money. And I don't know how much--
　　MRS PATMORE
　　No, hold it right there. If we can't feed a few soldiers in our own village, them as have taken the bullet 3 or worse for king and country, then I don't know what.
　　[INT. GREAT HALL - DAY]
　　[Daisy walks in with a basket of firewood while the officers are sitting at tables around the room.]
　　DAISY
　　Sorry about this, milady. Only there's no footmen to do it now.
　　LADY EDITH
　　I don't mind. You better run before Mrs Hughes sees you.
　　DAISY
　　Milady, could I ask something?
　　[Edith nods.]
　　DAISY
　　Only, William, who was in service here…
　　LADY EDITH
　　I know William.
　　DAISY
　　Well, he's missing 4. That is, he was supposed to be back on leave, but he never turned up. He wrote he was coming home for a few days with Captain Crawley.
　　LADY EDITH
　　Is William your beau?
　　DAISY
　　I wouldn't say that. No, milady. We're all very fond of William downstairs.
　　LADY EDITH
　　Of course you are. Well, I'm sure it's nothing, but I'll see what I can find out.
　　DAISY
　　Thank you.
　　[Daisy goes back to building a fire.]
　　[INT. LIBRARY - DAY]
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　But how do you know they didn't change their plans?
　　LADY EDITH
　　Well, of course I don't, but the poor girl seemed quite certain.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Just when Isobel is away and none of us know where she is. Typical.
　　LADY EDITH
　　I suppose Matthew might've heard from Cousin Isobel and decided 5 to meet up in France instead.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　But that wouldn't explain why William isn't here. I'll do what I can.
　　[INT. KITCHENS - DAY]
　　[Mrs Patmore orders the cook's helper at the stove.]
　　MRS PATMORE
　　No! Don't stop stirring 6, the bottom'll burn.
　　[Mrs Patmore orders the cook's helper carrying some chickens.]
　　MRS PATMORE
　　You can leave those to Daisy. That's it Daisy. Put them in the special storage area. What do you want?
　　O'BRIEN
　　Can I borrow some baking soda 7?
　　MRS PATMORE
　　Borrow? Why? Are you planning to give it back?
