Downton Abbey, Series Two (1916, 1917, 1918, 1919)

Sir Richard Carlisle:
My God, Mary. What more could I have done?

Lady Mary Crawley:
Nothing. But you must see we're not well-suited. We'd never be happy.

Sir Richard Carlisle:
You won't be happy by the time I've finished, I promise you that.

Lady Mary Crawley:
Of course I'm grateful--

Sir Richard Carlisle:
So you should be! I buy your fifthly scandal. I keep it safe from prying eyes. Ad why did the papers leave you alone over Bates? Why has there been nothing linking to the great Earl of Grantham?

Lady Mary Crawley:
I suppose you stopped it.

Sir Richard Carlisle:
With threats, bribes, calling in favors--yes, I stopped it!

Lady Mary Crawley:
Papa will be so thankful.
