Downton Abbey Season 4, Episode 8, and the Christmas special end the series 4 of the show. Edith decided on the fate of her child, but Lady Rosamund and the Dowager Countess have ideas of their own. Rose and Jack are spotted together, and make a big decision about their growing relationship. Relationships for Ivy and Alfred, as well as Daisy come to a head, as Green’s crime is revealed. Over Christmas, Rose’s coming-out and presentation as a debutante takes place, bringing nearly everyone over for the occasion. Thomas resents his past employment, Mr. Blake becomes more eligible in Mary’s eyes, and a trip to the seaside closes it all out.
