唐顿庄园第一季第六集_4
[EXT. COUNTRY ROAD, OPEN ROLLS ROYCE - DAY]
SIR ANTHONY STRALLAN
The Kaiser is such a mercurial 1 figure - one minute the warlord, the next a lovelorn poet.
LADY EDITH
But a poet in need of an empire.
SIR ANTHONY STRALLAN (chuckle 2)
That's very good. \"A poet in need of an empire,\" yes. My late wife used to say that...
LADY EDITH
What did Lady Strallan used to say?
SIR ANTHONY STRALLAN
Oh, never mind.
LADY EDITH
But I should like to hear it.
SIR ANTHONY STRALLAN
Really?
[Edith nods.]
SIR ANTHONY STRALLAN
Would you really? She used to say that Kaiser Bill loved uniforms and medals, but he never really connected them with fighting.
[They both chuckle lightly.]
LADY EDITH
What was she like?
SIR ANTHONY STRALLAN
Maud? Oh, she was awfully 3 funny. Some people couldn't see it, but she was.
[EXT. THE VILLAGE - DAY]
[William is walking in his time off. He meets Lady Mary walking her horse and tips his hat to her. A blacksmith 4 hammer clangs in the background.]
LADY MARY
Is Lynch anywhere about?
WILLIAM
Oh, I haven't seen him, milady.
LADY MARY
My horse is lame 5.
WILLIAM
Oh, I could have a look at him.
LADY MARY
Do you know about horses?
WILLIAM
I looked after the horses on my father's farm. It was the best job in the world.
LADY MARY
Then why did you leave it?
WILLIAM
Me mother wanted me to have a chance of bettering myself.
LADY MARY
As a second footman?
WILLIAM
It's a good place for me, milady.
[Mary realises her rudeness.]
LADY MARY
Of course it is. I'm sorry.
WILLIAM
She hopes, one day, that I might be first footman, or even get to be...
LADY MARY
Carson had better watch out.
WILLIAM
Stranger things happen at sea.
[Mary chuckles 6.]
[INT. MR CARSON'S OFFICE - EVENING]
MISS O'BRIEN
I've seen Mr Bates with a bottle from time to time. I must have thought he was helping 7 you.
MR CARSON
Why would I order a valet to help with the wine?
MISS O'BRIEN
Well, when you put it like that, of course you wouldn't.
MR CARSON
So, Mr Bates is taking wine. And why would this be? To drink it?
THOMAS
It's not to clean his boots.
MR CARSON
Thank you, Thomas. Daisy? Thomas says you have something to add to this.
DAISY
Well...
MR CARSON
You're not in any trouble or any danger of trouble.
THOMAS
You remember what you saw.
DAISY
I may have seen him coming out of the cellar 8.
MR CARSON
\"May\"? Did you or didn't you?
MISS O'BRIEN
It's very hard for the girl, Mr Carson. You're frightening her.
MR CARSON
I'm sorry. Thank you. You may go.
