Criminal investigation? She — like her grandmother said later — was convinced that the Canadian was an opportunist using his unfortunate disfigurement to score a massive fortune. Lowe did save a man who went unidentified. Robert, who repeatedly looked at Matthew during this whole business, never did get around to telling them about that hand gesture. Matthew, for his part, still insisted that the Canadian would be a better heir presumptive anyway — the soldier may be difficult to look at, but he can walk around the estate and sire a boatload of kids.
When Edith confronted the Canadian, he admitted to having been very close friends with Peter Gordon. Edith seemed sure it was the latter. When he talked to Edith about the past, he always waited for her to fill in the blanks. Poor Edith. If you count Patrick, Anthony Strallan, the farmer, and Peter, that makes four heartbreaks for her in barely two seasons. At least Mary keeps getting hurt by the same guy. A miserable, wheelchair-bound Matthew has moved to the Abbey to be closer to the convalescent home and, therefore, only yards away from Mary.
Richard told Robert that he plans to buy a nearby 12,acre estate called Haxby Park so that Mary can stay close to Downton. Pilfering a servant, we find out later, is a mark of bad breeding. But he still agreed to consider the move if Lady Mary approved. Then he suggested that she invite Lavinia back to Downton.
And, what do you know, the girl mysteriously arrived a few days later. Mary was stunned. Matthew turned green. He seemed moved, but a bit disappointed. No one crosses vile Richard and gets away with it. She was all smiles and fluttery eyelashes when Lord Grantham asked about her year-old son and offered to put in a good word for him at a topnotch grammar school.
Carson eventually found them laughing and shoo-ed Jane out of the dining room. The Highclere Castle we see today has been the home for the Carnarvon family since Highclere Castle — the home of Downton Abbey — is now available for a once-in-a-lifetime stay available only on Airbnb.
Is Patrick Gordon actually Patrick Crawley? Does Patrick inherit Downton Abbey? Did Bates kill Mr Green? Did Lady Mary sleep with the Turkish diplomat? Who does Edith Crawley marry? Does Tom remarry on Downton Abbey? Is there really a Downton Abbey?
Lord Grantham -- who's bad with money and largely lives off of his American wife's considerable dowry -- had hoped Patrick would marry his eldest daughter, Lady Mary, and keep it all in the family.
It was Lady Edith, Lord Grantham's middle daughter, who actually loved him. But Season 2 features a twist that could've changed everything.
The second season takes place as World War I rages on, and several of the men of the household, including Matthew, have enlisted. At youngest daughter Lady Sybil's urging, Downton is temporarily converted into a convalescent home for recovering soldiers.
One of those war wounded, identified as Major Patrick Gordon, arrives with his face and hands badly burned. He strikes up a friendship with Edith, and eventually reveals that he isn't Patrick Gordon but Patrick Crawley, the rightful heir and her former love interest. Lady Mary and Lord Grantham are suspicious, because, after all, there's a title and everything that goes with it at stake. Lady Edith, on the other hand, wants to believe.
Patrick claims he survived the shipwreck, but suffered from amnesia afterwards. He ended up in Canada and assumed the name Gordon, and only recovered memories of his previous life when he was rocked by an explosion in combat.
His burns make it impossible to verify his claims based on appearance or handwriting samples, and he knows things that the real Patrick Crawley ought to know.
