Elsie breathes a sigh of relief, in the ballroom, when she realizes everything for the Servants' Ball is already done. "Anna, I'm going up to change for the party. I suggest you do the same."

"Would you like me to help you with your hair, Mrs Hughes?" Anna asks sweetly.

"That would be lovely, Anna, thank you. If you come by my room in a half an hour I'll be ready then or I should be." Elsie smiles at Anna. Anna is so sweet.

"Alright, Mrs Hughes. What colour is the dress you're wearing tonight?" Anna asks as she and Mrs Hughes climb the stairs to their rooms.

"I'm wearing a lavender dress tonight. It's new. I bought the fabric ages ago, but I didn't get it finished until now. It's more revealing than usual. I'm nervous about it." Elsie admits to Anna.

"I'm sure you'll look lovely, Mrs Hughes. You always do. Mr. Carson always notices when you step in the room." Anna teases Mrs Hughes.

"Oh, he does not. What colour are you wearing, Anna?" Elsie asks as she blushes at Anna's comment.

"I'm wearing a berry red colour. I'm borrowing it from one of the other girls and she's borrowing a dress I had." Anna tells Mrs Hughes.

"You'll look beautiful in red, Anna. I'm sure Mr. Bates is so proud to have you on his arm." Mrs Hughes says sweetly.

"I'll be by in a half hour to do your hair, Mrs Hughes. Just have your hairpins out for me." Anna requests.
