As probably most did, I initially missed Aunt Violet’s tacky comment that outed Sir Anthony after he left Edith in the lurch. “(Sir Anthony’s former marriage) would have been a difficult act to follow.” To which, Ms Tacky added, “It would have been a difficult act to repeat!” (In case you don’t deduce the meaning – It implies that his first marriage was an “act” in which he played straight.)
She was so against Edith marrying the old queen and a life as a “druge” with no sex at all!

I already saw all this in the UK. I could sooo spoil your day.
Don’t worry, I won’t. It’s like having Nuclear weapons, it’s nice knowing I can blow up the world, but I don’t need to actually do it.

@Joel J: O’Brien leaves for London where she runs an S&M shop as a dominatrix. Sir Anthony shows up as one of her clients. Deeply closeted Mosley, who has a thing for Matthew, begs Matthew to go with him as his valet. Mosley is blackmailed by an ex who wants a position as Lord Grantham’s chauffeur. Sybil’s husband joins Sinn Fein, Lord Grantham disinherits him cutting off Sybil’s allowance, and Sybil returns home with her young child. Edith develops a lesbian relationship with a distant cousin named Hortense. The Dowager is shocked and humiliated by these turns of events and seeks refuge in Downton Manor beyond the Pale of society. Mrs. Levenson arrives from America to offer advice on accepting change.

Thomas leaves Downton to open a gay pub in the village? As with most pubs of the era, there are private rooms upstairs.
