The entire thing was really just a plot device for Mary to see what can happen if you keep pushing people away, so she might come to her senses and get her happy ending. But don't worry! His time floating in his own blood made him realise that pushing people away makes one lonely, so now he's learnt his lesson and he doesn't have to feel sad any more. Poor silly Thomas, rejected for another job, so he goes and slashes his wrists. His self-blame seemed to be presented as the truth. 'Don't say you're going off me'-Carson 'No, cause you're my curmudgeon, and that makes all the difference'-Mrs. 'Show me a man that doesn't smile when his wife admits she's wrong'-Bates 'What makes you think you'll be any good?'-Carson 'I don't know exactly, perhaps cause I want it so much'-Molesley 'Mama has exhausted my patience this time'-Robert 'But she did give you Teo'-Rosamund 'True, I forgive her everything'-Robert This episode needed more of the puppy to break from the dramatic scenes. I expect he will, so Edith can have a happy ending. I really do like Bertie, I think he was good with Edith, and fit in well with the family, hopefully he comes back. I do think that Edith should have told Bertie about Marigold before she agreed to marry him, though that doesn't excuse what Mary did.

Part of me was really hoping that Tom was trying so hard to get Mary back with Henry because he was too afraid to admit his feelings for her, was just really hoping for Mary and Tom to get together.Įdith is such a strong person to go to Mary's wedding, and that heartfelt talk they had really gives me hope for the future of their relationship. Patmore, everyone laughing at the situation with her bed and breakfast even though she lost all her customers :( Glad it worked out in the end Carson was especially snobbish this episode
