Mary, Matthew & the Wedding Rehearsal in 3x01 Deleted Scene

+ bonus Thomas & Daisy interaction

Downton Abbey Deleted Scenes [6/?]

Downton Abbey 3x01

This scene is so so cute and I'm so sad that they cut the little girl being so naughty and cheeky. You can just imagine what great parents Mary and Matthew will be from this little interaction.

Tagging under the cut:

Please don’t let fandom ruin something you love. Walk away and unfollow the fans and enjoy the thing by yourself, or find a limited circle of people who ignore the discourse, or get your irl friends into the thing and collectively ignore the Internet community, or blacklist from here to the moon if you need to and only ever scroll through your rarepair ship’s tag on AO3. But don’t let fandom distort a show or a movie or a book or a comic you used to love so badly that you can’t enjoy the original anymore. Please. It isn’t worth it.

Extended MM Scene (03x01)

With a nod from Branson, Anna slips out and away. So does he. Leaving the lovers on either side of the slightly open door.

MATTHEW: My darling, I refuse to quarrel about something that hasn’t happened and probably never will. MARY: That’s what Anna says. MATTHEW: Then she’s right. My darling, I’m sure we will fight about money, and about Downton, and about how to rear our children, and about any number of other things. MARY: Then shouldn’t we except it? Matthew, I’ve been thinking, and I’m not angry now, truly I’m not. But if we can disagree over something as fundamental as this, then shouldn’t we be brave and back away now? MATTHEW: No. MARY: It’s not because you’re afraid of calling it off? Because I’m not. MATTHEW: No. It’s because of something Tom said. That I would never be happy with anyone else as long as you walk the earth, which is true. And I think you feel the same about me. MARY: Even if I do, I couldn’t bear it if you won’t support the family. I have to know we’ll pull together. MATTHEW: I promise I will do everything in my power to keep this family together as long as it is not against my conscience. My darling, if it comes to it, I’ll die for you. Do you really ask more than that?

He is very passionate, and despite herself Mary is persuaded.

MARY: I suppose not. MATTHEW: Can I kiss you? Because I need to. Very much. MARY: No. It’s bad luck for you to look at me. That’s if we are getting married. MATTHEW: What about if I close my eyes and you do, too?

She hesitates for a moment, but then…

MARY: All right, but you mustn’t cheat.

She feels for this face and kisses him, eyes tightly clenched.

MATTHEW: Goodnight.

Extended MM Scene (03x07)

Mary: Hadn’t you better get changed?

She adjusts a necklace in front of the mirror.

Mary: How was it?

Matthew sinks back on to the bed in faux exhaustion.

Matthew: Pretty bad. Jarvis has resigned. Mary: What? Matthew: He’s gone, and I’m going to have to make it all work or I’ve had it. Mary: But you’re certain this is right? Matthew: Come here.

He holds out his hand. She walks over and he pulls her down onto the bed, holding her in his arms.

Mary: You’ll make me untidy. Matthew: Good.

Now he takes her face in his hands. His voice is passionate.

Matthew: You see I know it’s right, Mary. I believe I can make Downton safe for our children, if we ever have any. But I can only do it if you’re with me. I need to know that you and I are one. In this, as in everything. Mary: But what about Papa? I do love him. Matthew: Love him by all means, but believe in me. Believe in what I’m doing, in what we’re doing, or I don’t think I can go on.

She stares at him and then kisses him.

Mary: There. Will that convince you? Matthew: Convince me again.

She does.

Mary: And don’t say ‘if we ever have any’. Because we will. Matthew: I’ll believe in you, if you believe in me.

[worldwars]

Matthew: I'd rather stay here for the rest of my life, holding your hand.

I’m sorry, but this scene almost directly follows the one in the cafe. (“So, we can start making babies.”) There is no doubt in my mind as to what Matthew believes their ‘work’ entails… ;)
