Mary: “We can’t make a scene.”

Edith: “I sometimes feels we should make more scenes. About things that really matter to us.”

Tony: “It wouldn’t be very English.”

Downton Abbey season four, episode 9 “The London Season”.  Edith, Tony Gillingham, and Mary. With Tony almost like a brother, rather than one of Mary’s wannabe suitors.
