Summary
The Second World War has just ended, but not much has changed for Thomas. His efforts to be kinder have paid off, of course, and he's made acquaintances, is on friendly terms with his staff. It's not the same gnawing loneliness he had once felt, but it was still there, lingering in the background of his otherwise content life. He's glad, then, when an unexpected visitor stops by Downton for a visit, and brings a friend along with him.
A very, very handsome friend.
