　　[INT. SERVANTS' HALL - DAY]

　　O'BRIEN

　　I wouldn't be Vera Bates. He left here at dawn with a face like thunder. Wonder if she knows what she started.

　　THOMAS

　　If I were you, I'd keep out of it.

　　ANNA

　　Wise words.

　　MRS PATMORE

　　How did you get on?

　　JANE

　　Yeah, it was interesting. Daisy, I wish you'd let me tell you about it.

　　DAISY MASON

　　There's no point.

　　O'BRIEN

　　No point in what?

　　DAISY MASON

　　Jane keeps making out I'm a war widow. But I'm not, am I ? You all know that. I married William on his deathbed. That don't count.

　　ANNA

　　Course it counts.

　　DAISY MASON

　　I don't think so. And I wasn't good to him. He thought I loved him, but I didn't. Not like he loved me. I should never have married him in the first place, only you--

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Marrying him was a great kindness.

　　DAISY MASON

　　No, it wasn't kind. It was wrong.

　　[Daisy rushes out, upset. She runs into Bates on her way out.]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Mr Bates! How did you get here?

　　MR BATES

　　I walked from the station.

　　MR CARSON

　　You should've said. We'd've sent someone to meet you.

　　MR BATES

　　I was glad of the walk. I was glad of the air.

　　[Anna exits with Bates.]

　　ANNA

　　I never thought you'd be back tonight. How was it?

　　MR BATES

　　Worse than you can possibly imagine.

　　ANNA

　　What's...?

　　[Anna looks at the bruise¹ on Bates's face. He stops her hand and exits ominously². Anna re-enters the servants' dining hall and O'Brien mulls over their tête-à-tête.]

　　[INT. LIBRARY - DAY]

　　LADY MARY

　　I assume that whatever Mr Murray has told you means the man is a fake. You can‘t have asked Matthew to be here unless you know that.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　It‘s very complicated. Lowe was the only officer to go back to the site of the wreck³. He did pull some people out of the sea, and it seems one of the men was unidentified.

　　LADY EDITH

　　There.

　　[Mary roles her eyes.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　One if the reports has him dying before they reached the Carpathia.

　　LADY MARY

　　Precisely⁴.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Another witness says the man did get to New York alive, but there‘s no clear record of his name.

　　LADY EDITH

　　Which could be Patrick Crawley.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　There‘s more. There was a Peter Gordon who worked with Patrick at the foreign office. Now, he emigrated to Montreal in 1913.

　　VIOLET, DOWAGER COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　When his face was blown away, he decided⁵ every cloud has a silver lining⁶. He was perfectly⁷ placed to impersonate his dead friend. I mean, no doubt they shared confidences, so he just brushed them up and put himself forward for a major inheritance.

　　LADY MARY

　　Granny‘s right. All he needed was a survivor⁸ from the Titanic⁹ who was unaccounted for, and he found one.

　　LADY EDITH

　　But the Titanic story bears out Patrick‘s version in every way.

　　CORA, COUNTESS OF GRANTHAM

　　What do you think?

　　[Robert looks at Matthew before answering.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　I don‘t know what to think.

　　LADY MARY

　　How can you even hesitate?

　　LADY EDITH

　　But Mary, you haven‘t heard the things he remembers.

　　LADY MARY

　　I don‘t need to. I remember how we played, and your pony¹⁰, and your birthday, and how we hid in the garden from the nasty governess. What other memories would you have of a childhood spent here?

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Murray will continue to investigate. So, Edith, can we be polite to the man, but nothing more? The end of the war should make it easier to unearth¹¹ the evidence. That is all for the time being.

　　[The family starts to disperse¹².]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　I thought Carlisle was going to come back for our ceremony tomorrow, but he never sent a train time.

　　LADY MARY

　　He‘s driving up. He‘ll be here in time for dinner tonight.

　　[Mary leaves and only Matthew and Robert are left.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　I‘m sorry I can‘t be more decisive.

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　Don‘t be. I meant what I said the other day. It‘ll take a man who‘s more than I am now to follow you. So don‘t think about me.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　My dear chap, how can you say that? I never think about anything else.

　　[EXT. DOWNTON GROUNDS, ROMAN GAZEBO - DAY]

　　PATRICK GORDON

　　Well, what do they make of this Peter Gordon character they've uncovered? Do they think that's who I am?

　　LADY EDITH

　　Do you remember him?

　　PATRICK GORDON

　　Very well. Peter and I were good friends. Very good friends.

　　LADY EDITH

　　Did you know he moved to Canada?

　　PATRICK GORDON

　　How could I? When I'd forgotten who I was until two months ago.

　　LADY EDITH

　　Of course.

　　PATRICK GORDON

　　So, what will they do now?

　　LADY EDITH

　　Track him down, I imagine. Find out what happened to him.

　　PATRICK GORDON

　　Suppose he joined the Princess Pat Light Infantry¹³.

　　LADY EDITH

　　I don't understand. What are you saying? Why would he?

　　PATRICK GORDON

　　You're very sweet, you know. So sweet you make me think that all things are possible. But perhaps the lesson is you can't go back.

　　LADY EDITH

　　You're tired, and I don't blame you, but you're not to give up. I won't let you. We'll find this Peter Gordon, I know we will.

　　PATRICK GORDON

　　Yes. I expect you will.
