Luckily, when Isis “magically” reappears she looks bored by the whole situation. This involves Isis spending a very scary night in the woods. In an attempt to ingratiate himself with Robert, Thomas kidnaps and then “finds” Robert’s beloved dog, Isis. William saves Matthew’s life but both return to Downton wounded. Thomas purposefully gets shot in the hand so he can be sent home. Branson refuses, and finally Robert gives Sybil his blessing to travel to Ireland and marry.īates’ wife (conveniently) dies by alleged suicide, clearing the way for Bates and Anna to marry. Mary and Edith learn of the scheme and stop them. Sybil and Branson make plans to run away together. (We’ll call him Branson so as not to confuse him with the servant/soldier Thomas.) Sybil grows increasingly interested in concepts like equality and grows disillusioned with her life as landed gentry. Sybil falls in love with the chauffeur Tom Branson (Allen Leech), a political firebrand who dreams of returning to Ireland to throw off the yoke of English rule. (In fairness to the Crawleys, he turns out to be a vile dude-after all, he is blackmailing his fiancée.) The Crawleys look down on Richard because he’s self-made, which is pretty snobbish. In order to prevent the news from getting out, Mary agrees to become engaged to a newspaper magnet Sir Richard Carlisle (Iain Glen), who in return buys and then quashes the story. Bates’ crazy, criminal wife shows up at Downton and threatens to spread the secret about Lady Mary and the Turkish diplomat if Bates doesn’t come live with her. Matthew returns to Downton on leave and reveals he’s engaged to a woman named Lavinia Swire (Zoe Boyle).
