 　　唐顿庄园第二季第五集_5

　　[INT. GUEST BEDROOM - EVENING]

　　[Edith tends to William.]

　　LADY EDITH

　　Why don't you go home now, Mr Mason? We'll see you tomorrow.

　　MR MASON

　　Are you sure you don't mind sitting up with him?

　　LADY EDITH

　　He won't be alone. Not for a moment. I promise.

　　MR MASON

　　He looks so perfect, lying there.

　　[Mr Mason leaves.]

　　MRS PATMORE

　　But he does look perfect. Are you sure they've got it right?

　　LADY EDITH

　　I'm afraid so. If only I weren't.

　　[INT. DOWNTON COTTAGE HOSPITAL, WARD¹ - MORNING]

　　[Robert peeks² in on Dr Clarkson's examination of Matthew's spine³. Mary stands inside the screens, watching.]

　　DR CLARKSON

　　Do you feel that?

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY (nods)

　　Mm-hmm.

　　DR CLARKSON

　　What about that?

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　No.

　　[Robert opens the screen and Mary looks up and sees Lavinia across the room.] DR CLARKSON

　　And that? Mm?

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　No, nothing.

　　DR CLARKSON

　　Nothing at all?

　　[Mary and Robert go to Lavinia and Mary smiles comfortingly at her as she takes her hands and kisses her cheek.]

　　LAVINIA

　　Do they know any more yet?

　　LADY MARY

　　They're examining him now.

　　LAVINIA

　　So he's conscious?

　　LADY MARY

　　Just about.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Have they found out what happened?

　　LADY MARY

　　A shell landed near them. The explosion threw Matthew against something.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Go on.

　　LADY MARY

　　Dr Clarkson thinks...there may be trouble with his legs.

　　[Dr Clarkson joins them.]

　　DR CLARKSON

　　Not good news, I'm afraid. I'd say the spinal⁴ cord has been transected. That it is permanently⁵ damaged.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　You mean he won't walk again?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　If I'm right, then no, he won't.

　　[Lavinia starts crying and Robert puts a comforting arm around her shoulders.] DR CLARKSON

　　It's a shock, of course, and you must be allowed to grieve, but I would only say that he will, in all likelihood, regain⁶ his health. This is not the end of his life.

　　LADY MARY

　　Just the start of a different life.

　　DR CLARKSON

　　Exactly. Lord Grantham, I wonder if I might have a word.

　　[Robert steps into the corridor with Dr Clarkson and Mary steps forward to comfort Lavinia.]

　　LAVINIA

　　Have you got a handkerchief? I never seem to have one in a moment of crisis.

　　[Mary hands her one.]

　　LAVINIA

　　Thank you.

　　[In the corridor.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　You mean there can be no children?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　No anything, I'm afraid.

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　But isn't there a chance that might change?

　　DR CLARKSON

　　The sexual reflex is controlled at a lower level of the spine to the motor function of the legs. Once the latter is cut off, so is the former.

　　[Meanwhile, Lavinia is recovering.]

　　LAVINIA

　　Right.

　　[Lavinia walks bravely toward the screens around Matthew and Robert returns as Mary makes a step toward them.]

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Give them a moment together.

　　[Mary nods.]

　　LADY MARY

　　What was Clarkson saying?

　　ROBERT, EARL OF GRANTHAM

　　Nothing to worry you about.

　　[Lavinia steps into the screens. Matthew smiles.]

　　MATTHEW CRAWLEY

　　My darling.

　　[She sits in a chair next to him.]

　　[ EXT. THE VILLAGE - DAY]

　　[Mrs Hughes picks up a basket and gets onto a bus. She arrives at a house and knocks on the door.]

　　[INT. ETHEL'S HOUSE - DAY]

　　[Ethel takes food out of the basket Mrs Hughes bought, a baby in her other arm.]

　　MRS HUGHES

　　If he could only see the child.

　　ETHEL

　　He won't. I've written again and again. I've offered to bring him to any place he wants.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　I wasn't going to tell you this, but he's coming on a visit this week to see his old pals⁷.

　　ETHEL

　　Help me, Mrs Hughes. Let me come to Downton and show him the baby!

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Oh, certainly not! I won't have that.

　　ETHEL

　　Well, then ask him to meet me! I know he'd listen to you. I'll give you a letter. One more can't hurt. Make him read it in front of you.

　　MRS HUGHES

　　I--I'll do no such thing.

　　ETHEL

　　But please!

　　MRS HUGHES

　　He'd say it was none of my business, and he'd be right. Besides, don't think I approve of what you've done, because I don't.

　　ETHEL

　　Haven't you ever made a mistake?

　　MRS HUGHES

　　Not on this scale. No, I have not. Sorry to disappoint you.

　　ETHEL

　　So, you won't do anything?

　　MRS HUGHES

　　I'm feeding you out of the house, quite wrongly, I might add. I have a good mind to stop that. ETHEL

　　No, I'm the one who's sorry.
