　　[INT. LADY GRANTHAM'S BEDROOM - NIGHT]
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　If you knew that was your decision, why put Mary through it?
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　But I didn't know it was my decision, my final decision, until tonight. But I find I cannot ruin the estate or hollow out the title for the sake of Mary, even with a better man than that.
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　I try to understand, I just can't.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Why should you? Downton is in my blood and in my bones. It's not in yours. And I can no more be the cause of its destruction than I could betray my country. Besides, how was I to know he wouldn't take her without the money?
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Don't pretend to be a child because it suits you.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Do you think she would've been happy with a fortune hunter?
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　She might've been. I was.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Have you been happy? Really, have I made you happy?
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Yes. That is, since you fell in love with me. Which, if I remember correctly, was about a year after we were married.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Not a year. Not as long as that. But it wouldn't have happened for Mary.
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Why not?
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Because I am so much nicer than the Duke of Crowborough.
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　I'll be the judge of that.
　　[Cora turns off the light.]
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Just don't think I'm going to let it rest, Robert. I haven't given up by any means.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　I must do what my conscience tells me.
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　And so must I. And I don't want you to think I'll let it rest.
　　[Robert blows out the candle on his side of the bed.]
　　[INT. GREAT HALL - MORNING]
　　MR CARSON
　　My lord, would it be acceptable for Bates to ride in front with Taylor? Otherwise it means getting the other car out. He and His Grace are catching 1 the same train.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Perfectly 2 acceptable. And if His Grace doesn't, he can lump it.
　　[Carson is pleased by Robert's response.]
　　[EXT. DOWNTON ABBEY, FRONT WALK - MORNING]
　　[Bates takes a last look at the house. The duke exits the house with Cora.]
　　DUKE OF CROWBOROUGH
　　You've been so kind, Lady Grantham, thank you.
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Goodbye, Duke.
　　DUKE OF CROWBOROUGH
　　You will make my farewells to your delightful 3 daughters?
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　They'd have been down if they'd known you were leaving so soon.
　　DUKE OF CROWBOROUGH
　　Alas 4, s--something's come up which has taken me quite by surprise.
　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM
　　Obviously.
　　[Robert joins them.]
　　DUKE OF CROWBOROUGH
　　Well, Grantham, this has been a highly enjoyable interlude.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Has it? And I feared it had proved a disappointment.
　　DUKE OF CROWBOROUGH
　　Not at all. Not at all, a short stay in your lovely house has driven away my cares.
　　[Thomas glares at the duke.]
　　CHAUFFEUR 5
　　We ought to go, my lord, if His Grace is to catch the train.
　　[The duke gets in the motor. Robert approaches Bates.]
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Goodbye, Bates. And good luck.
　　MR BATES
　　Good luck to you, my lord.
　　[Robert is discomfited 6 as Bates gets in the motorcar. The chauffeur begins to drive away and Robert turns from heading inside to run after the car.]
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Wait!
　　[Carson walks briskly towards the car as Robert takes Bates's travel bag.]
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Get out, Bates.
　　DUKE OF CROWBOROUGH
　　I--I really mustn't be late.
　　[Robert ignores the duke.]
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Get back inside and we'll say no more about it.
　　[Bates takes his bag from Robert and heads inside. Robert closes the car door and watches Bates walk back to the house.]
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　It wasn't right, Carson. I just didn't think it was right.
　　[INT. MANCHESTER, CRAWLEY'S HOUSE - MORNING]
　　[Matthew Crawley and his mother, Isobel, are eating breakfast. A housemaid brings Isobel the post.]
　　ELLEN
　　First post, ma'am.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　Thank you, Emma. One for you.
　　[Isobel hands a letter to Matthew.]
　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY
　　Mm. Thank you, Mother.
　　[Matthew opens the letter.]
　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY
　　It's from Lord Grantham.
　　ISOBEL CRAWLEY
　　Really? What on earth does he want?
　　[Matthew's jaw 7 drops as he continues reading.]
　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY
　　He wants to change our lives.
