Lady Edith Crawley:
Papa? Is something the matter?

Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham:
No, nothing's the matter, and that's what I want to make clear.

Lady Edith Crawley:
I don't understand. What's this about?

Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham:
Marigold.

Lady Edith Crawley:
I see. And what do you have to say about Marigold?

Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham:
I think you know what I want to say--what I want you to say.

Lady Edith Crawley:
I can't give her up.

Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham:
No, of course not.

...

Lady Edith Crawley:
I want your forgiveness, Papa. Am I allowed to say that still?

Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham:
It's not the way I would have things. I won't lie to you about that, but this is what's happened. I believe Michael Gregson was an honorable man.

Lady Edith Crawley:
Oh, he was, Papa! He really was. He would have married me as soon as he could. I know that!

Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham:

Lady Edith Crawley:
That's so lovely of you.

Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham:
But I think we should keep it in the family. Even in 1924, there are plenty of people who might be unpleasant.

Lady Edith Crawley:
But do you forgive me, Papa?

Robert Crawley, Lord Grantham:
Oh, my darling, I'm sure I need your forgiveness quite as much as you need mine.
