Downton Abbey2010

Henry Talbot:
Sorry about that, there was rather a queue.

Tom Branson:
It's popular, that's a good sign.

Henry Talbot:
Oh, you don't know the place? [Tom shakes head]

Lady Mary Crawley:
You'll laugh at me, but I've hardly ever been in a public house. Matthew wasn't really a pub man, and Papa goes into the Grantham Arms about once a year to have a drink with the tenants.

Henry Talbot:
Well I'm afraid my life is an altogether rougher affair.

Lady Mary Crawley:
[Smiling widely] Consider me warned.

Tom Branson:
So the car's a success?

Henry Talbot:
Well, I wasn't convinced it would be, but it is. You must have a go sometime.

Tom Branson:
I hope that's a real offer.

Henry Talbot:
You know, I didn't realize you were so keen, Tom. Blast! You could have driven there today.

Tom Branson:
You know I came to Downton as a chauffeur

Henry Talbot:
Oh, Mary told me. But then, not every chauffeur has a real love for cars.

Tom Branson:
That's true enough.

Henry Talbot:
[Turning to Mary] I'll tell you who was talking about you the other day: Evelyn Napier.

Lady Mary Crawley:
[Without emotion] Oh, how is he?

Henry Talbot:
He's well. Still single, of course, and, I suspect, still pining for you.

Lady Mary Crawley:
He will pine in vain, but I'm very fond of him.

Henry Talbot:
La bell dame sans merci.

Tom Branson:
What does that mean?

Henry Talbot:
It means... Lady Mary knows what she's about. I'll tell you what, next time we're all down south, why don't we all have dinner?

Lady Mary Crawley:
I'd love that.

Tom Branson:
You are funny.

Lady Mary Crawley:
What do you mean?

Tom Branson:
The way you have to keep making excuses for why you'll meet. [Turning to Mary] You to watch him drive cars, [Turning to Henry] you to have dinner with a friend. Why can't you just say, "I'd love to spend more time with you"? When can we do it?

Lady Mary Crawley:
You see? He may have assimilated in some ways, but he still fights playing by the rules.
