=== Episode #5.1 (2014) === * http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3325518 * http://downton-abbey.hypnoweb.net/script-vo-501.211.1043/ * http://www.springfieldspringfield.co.uk/episode_scripts.php?tv-show=downton-abbey&season=1 :INT. DINING ROOM – Robert, Mary, Tom, Tony, Cora, Violet, Isobel, Carson, Kitty, Rose, "Man", Lady Anstruther, Sarah: :Robert make a speech. :Robert: Marriage is a lottery, as we are often told, but I am a man who has drawn a winning ticket. I have been awarded a bumper prize: beauty, brains, a heart, a conscience, all in one. I give you my Cora, the best companion in the world. :Mary: Mama. :Tom: Lady Grantham. :Tony: What a tribute. :Cora: Indeed. If only it were true! :Violet: What's happened to Molesley's hair? :Isobel: Carson, Lady Mary tells me that you're to lead the Memorial Committee. :Carson: That is so, madam. Yes. :Isobel: You'll drive it splendidly. :Kitty: Rose, is that friend of yours terribly clever? :Rose: She's Tom's friend, not mine, but I think so. Yes. :Kitty: She certainly thought I was terribly stupid. :Man: Well, let's not shoot her down for that. :(Carson sees Lady Anstruther put a paper in Jimmy’s Pocket.) :Tony: No, thank you. Do you know that footman? :Lady Anstruther: Yes, he used to work for me. It's always nice to see a friendly face. :Mary: Especially a friendly, pretty face. :Sarah: I'm not convinced these memorials are a good idea, but I suppose that's a different issue. :Tony: Why not? Won't they give people a focus for their sorrow? :Mary: And a reminder of the sacrifices that were made. :Sarah: If it were a memorial service, then I might agree, but a stone edifice on the green, to remind us for ever of death and a pointless war - what's the good of that? To say nothing of the waste of money. :Robert: Forgive me, but you're talking nonsense. :Isobel: Forgive me, but I suppose she's allowed an opinion. :Robert: Not that opinion. Not in this house. :Tom: I think what she means is… :Robert: She is here as your friend, so of course you must defend her. :Tom: But was the war worth fighting? What did it achieve, beyond the Russian Revolution? :Sarah: Millions of men dead and no more 'justice' than there was before. :Robert: You are wrong, both of you. But we must strive to keep things light. :Sarah: It's a pity they didn't want you on their Committee. You put up a stout defence of their intentions. :(Everyone don’t talk. Carson wants to save Robert’s honor) :Carson: They do want His Lordship on the Committee. Forgive me, My Lord. I'd have told you later, but they held a meeting this afternoon, and they would like you as their patron. :Cora: Oh, how nice. I dare say that was always their plan. :Carson: I dare say it was, Your Ladyship. :Robert: I should be glad to accept. :Violet: Now, if you can all put your swords away, perhaps we can finish our dinner in a civilised manner. :Isobel: But I admire it, when young people stand up for their principles. :Violet: Principles are like prayers. Noble, of course, but awkward at a party.
