Downton Abbey 5.2



In this second installment of my favorite historical fiction show, lost is happening. First, Rose is keen on getting a wireless for Downton Abbey but Robert refuses until she mentions the king plans on addressing the nation via wireless. Robert is busy arguing with Carson about the war memorial location and Carson finds himself at odds with Mrs. Hughes over the same issue - a position he is not used to being in. Miss Bunting threatens to create more drama when Mrs. Patmore hires her to tutor Daisy in math at the Abbey, though Bunting keeps to herself this time. I disagree with Robert in speculating that Bronson will take Sybbie away; his refusal to allow such a thing to happen is understandable but stupid. Bronson is the father and can decide what to do with his own child. Meanwhile, Mary has Anna buy her some birth control {to Anna's discomfort - I betcha this comes back to haunt her when Bates finds out; he'll think she bought it for herself cause she doesn't want any children}, and then Mary prepares to set off on her secret visit with Gillingham. The evening before, however, she meets up with Blake {the guy I liked better} who argues with her and makes her doubt her decision, though she goes anyway. That will definitely come back to bite her in the back. I can't wait for the next episode!! :)
