Bertie Pelham:
You've probably thought of this, but I'd place someone--maybe a servant--in each room the public will enter. Just to keep an eye on things.

Lady Mary Crawley:

Tom Branson:
I think that's a good idea.

Cora Crawley, Lady Grantham:
Carson, can you sort it out?

Mr. Carson:
Of course, my lady. I understand it's only the ground floor.

Lady Mary Crawley:

Bertie Pelham:

Tom Branson:
Do we need guides? Can't they just have a look and leave it at that?

Bertie Pelham:
I don't think so. Not if you want them to go away happy, and leave behind what's not theirs. Who knows about the history of the house?

Lady Edith Crawley:

Cora Crawley, Lady Grantham:
Heavens. I feel like the Belgians waiting for the invasion.

Lady Mary Crawley:
Or the monkeys in a zoo.
