Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe policeman says to Baxter 'It's not a Penny Dreadful'. He's referring to the popular Brit version of cheap, sensational pulp fiction sold in weekly installments in the late 19th century. They were very melodramatic, so he was telling Baxter the trial would not be like a Penny Dreadful.
- GoofsIn the dining room scene with Gwen, Robert says he was prevented by Sybil from entering the library but didn't know why. In the first season episode when Gwen was being interviewed, Sybil had blocked him from entering the library, but told him about the interview in progress. He was exasperated that he couldn't go into his own library, while his maid was being interviewed for another job.
- Quotes
Lady Edith Crawley: [re Isobel] I suppose she is entitled to put up an argument.
Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham: Of course she is. She's just not allowed to *win* it.

Some New Scenarios
I liked this episode because it gets at some of the pain some are feeling. To begin with, Carson and Hughes are on their honeymoon and are expected to return. Since Thomas is the under butler, he takes Carson's job in their absence. Of course, he is harsh and tyrannical. There is a scene where he tells Baxter that he cares what people think. But he does nothing to gain that image. We have the return of a young woman from the first season that shows how distant things were at that time. Thomas tries to betray her. The fight over the fate of the hospital continues, only the factions expand. Daisy goes a bit nutty in her personal campaign. Baxter is asked by the courts to perform an ugly task. Branson is almost too nice right now. I hope they have something for him to do in future episodes. Finally, there is something serious in Anna's (and hence in Mary's) life. Well done.
