　　[INT. MR CARSON'S OFFICE - EVENING]
　　[Thomas takes the wallet out of Carson's coat pocket. Molesley enters and pauses when he sees Thomas.]
　　THOMAS
　　Mr Molesley, what you are after?
　　[Thomas puts the wallet back in the coat.]
　　MR MOLESLEY
　　Wanted a word with Mr Carson. I'm here to have my dinner.
　　THOMAS
　　You don't want much, do you?
　　MR MOLESLEY
　　What're you doing?
　　THOMAS
　　Mr Carson dropped his wallet in the passage. I was replacing it.
　　[Molesley steps back so Thomas can exit and then closes the door.]
　　[INT. DINING ROOM - EVENING]
　　[Robert and Matthew sit at the table.]
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　But everything seemed so settled between you at Sybil's ball.
　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY
　　Things have changed since then.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　Not necessarily. I don't seem to be much good at making boys.
　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY
　　Any more than I'm much good at building my life on shifting sands.
　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM
　　You do know I should be very proud to have you as my son-in-law, whatever your prospects 1.
　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY
　　Unfortunately, sir, your daughter is more practical than you.
　　[INT. SERVANTS' HALL - EVENING]
　　MR CARSON
　　Will you join us, Mrs Bird.
　　MRS BIRD
　　I don't mind if I do.
　　DAISY
　　I'm not sure Mrs Patmore would like that, Mr Carson. Cook always eats separate, that's what she says.
　　MR MOLESLEY
　　Not in our house. There's only the four of us.
　　[Thomas approaches O'Brien.]
　　THOMAS
　　Well, you're going any minute. She's advertised for your replacement 2.
　　MISS O'BRIEN
　　That filthy 3, ungrateful cow.
　　MRS HUGHES
　　Let the kitchen maids have theirs on their own. You stay with us.
　　[Mrs Bird nods her appreciation 4 and sits at the table while Daisy finishes serving up the soup.]
　　MR CARSON
　　Her Ladyship said to tell you that the dinner was delicious.
　　DAISY
　　She can't have.
　　MR CARSON
　　Daisy? Does that surprise you?
　　[The servants all being eating and realise something's wrong. Mrs Bird spits out her soup and looks at Daisy.]
　　MRS BIRD
　　What have you done with this, you little beggar? I knew it. That's why I said it was for upstairs. come on!
　　[Mrs Bird bangs her hand on the table and Daisy jumps.]
　　MRS BIRD
　　Tell us what's in it!
　　DAISY
　　Just...water and a bit of soap.
　　[The servants all put down their spoons.]
　　MRS BIRD
　　And you've put something in the fish sauce as well?
　　DAISY
　　Only mustard and aniseed.
　　[Mrs Hughes stands up enraged 5.]
　　MRS HUGHES
　　Why, Daisy? Why would you do such a thing?!
　　[Daisy begins to cry.]
　　DAISY
　　Because Mrs Patmore was worried that they'd prefer Mrs Bird's cooking and they wouldn't want her to come back.
　　MR CARSON
　　Is that likely? When they've taken such trouble to get her well?
　　DAISY
　　I'm sorry.
　　[Daisy continues crying. Mrs Bird stands and goes to comfort her.]
　　MRS BIRD
　　There, there. There are worse crimes on earth than loyalty 6. Dry your eyes, and fetch the beef stew 7 I was making for tomorrow. You've not had a chance to spoil that, I suppose.
　　DAISY
　　I was going to mix in some syrup 8 of figs 9.
　　[The other servants chuckle 10.]
　　DAISY
　　But I've not done it yet.
　　THOMAS
　　Well, at least we'd have all been regular.
　　[Daisy rushes out to fetch the stew as the others continue to chuckle.]
