Matthew這句讓我哭笑不得,忍不住當top圖

要我給目前的唐頓莊園下副標題的話,應該是"獵夫記"(hunting for heir/husband)XD

Topic1:Enquiry

Robert

Mama, you’ve already looked him up in the stud books(種馬血統記錄簿@@)and make enquiries about the fortune, don’t pretend otherwise. Are you afraid someone will think you’re American if you speak openly?

[@樓下(僕人待的地方)] 

Hughes

With all due respect, Mr. Carson, Gwen is under my jurisdiction.

Carson

Indeed she is, Mrs. Hughes, and I have no intention of usurping your authority. I merely want to get the bottom of it.

William

Why shouldn’t Gwen have a typewriter?

Carson

Mind your own business.

Anna

She wants to keep it private, not secret. There’s a difference.

------------------------------------------

Topic2:Hope

Gwen

I’m the daughter of a farmhand. I’m lucky to be a maid. I was born with nothing and I’ll die with nothing.

Bates

Don’t talk like that. You can change your life if you want to. Sometimes, you have to be hard on yourself, but you can change it completely, I know.

------------------------------------------

Topic3:Foreigner

Mary

I gather, if he takes a tumble, you’ll be endangering the world peace.

Napier

[Pamuk is]fussing. He’s rather a dandy.

Mary

I can see him now, a funny little foreigner, with a wide, cheeky grin and hair reeking with pomade.

Napier

I wouldn’t quite say that. 

晚餐時Matthew默默地看著被Pamuk迷得神魂顛倒的Mary,心中一定很不是滋味(我也好難過[咬手帕]),Napier也很倒楣,帶朋友來結果引狼入室、狼還差點引起世界大戰(想到一戰導火線)

其實我覺得Pamuk、Matthew、Napier外貌平分秋色,差別在Pamuk有野性的魅力與危險、Matthew跟人保持距離但似乎"稍微"多關心Mary一點、Napier舉止得體卻和Mary不來電。我認為Pamuk適合當情人or情夫(想來點刺激的話)、Matthew適合當男閨蜜or老[來作]伴、Napier適合當丈夫(僕人也希望他當家,要Matthew茶來伸手他也很不習慣),不過人總會改變的,就看Matthew和Mary如何成長、發展吧

這集的小標應該是"change," Hughes的抉擇那段總是讓我想到石黑一雄《長日將盡(The Remains of the Day)》,昔日追求者依舊美好,改變的是當年的農家女、今天的女總管

而Matthew在嘗試改變中似乎對Mary動了情,Mary卻仍敵視Matthew(稍微能理解為何Edith恨得牙癢癢的=A=)

Sybil代表的則是社會變遷(女權運動等),另外用心理學Adler的家庭星座也可以解釋,老大保守、負責任感,老二處處與老大作對,老三走自己的路ps司機也滿帥的(有挑過吼),但熱衷政治這點我敬謝不敏

僕人這邊,始終善良的Anna開始得到善報(我們家當初看到Bates送餐那幕都好感動),William卻還執著於迷戀壞男人Thomas的傻女孩Daisy而負氣(話說William彈鋼琴解悶時我心都要融化了,學音樂的孩子不會變壞是真的!)

Topic1:invention changes life

Violet

Good Heavens! What am I sitting on!

Matthew

A swivel chair.

Violet

Another modern brainwave?

Matthew

Not very modern. They were invented by Thomas Jefferson.

Violet

Why does everyday involve a fight with an American?

Matthew

I’ll fetch a different one.

Violet

No, no, no. I’m a good sailor.

------------------------------------------

Topic2:change or die 

Matthew

You must think I’m a awful prig when I first arrived.

Robert

Not a prig. Just a man trust into something he never wanted or envisaged.

Matthew

I could only see the absurdity of the whole thing. I’m sorry.

Robert

Well, there’re absurdities involved, as I know well enough.

Matthew

Possibilities, too. And I was blind to them. I was determined not to let it change me. It was absurd. If you don’t change, you die. Do you think so?

Robert

I’m not sure. Sometimes I think I hate change.

Matthew

At least we can comfort ourselves that that this will still be here. Because we saved it.

Isobel

We can’t throw her over, when she made such effort to arrange for the last one.

Matthew

It’s all in your head.

Isobel

I don’t think so.

Matthew

Then she’s barking up the wrong tree.

Isobel

Poor Edith. I hope there’s a right tree for her somewhere.
