I was visited by a man from Ml6.

Quite a remarkable one.

00:05:20,286 --> 00:05:24,655

And they have done
for quite some time.
96
00:05:40,540 --> 00:05:44,203
So you honestly expect me to believe
that you are an Ml6 asset
97
00:05:44,377 --> 00:05:48,837
and you have kept that hidden
from me for over a decade?

Judging by the cold shoulder

I'd say she was no longer

Besides, I'm not planning to lie to her
about it whilst taking her into my bed,

00:09:56,562 --> 00:09:58,826
SHERRINGTON:
At one time, he was a valued resource.
171
00:09:59,365 --> 00:10:01,595
Kind of man who could spot patterns
in the chatter
172
00:10:01,767 --> 00:10:03,997
between suspicious parties.
173
00:10:04,170 --> 00:10:07,071
Patterns that could raise flags,
save lives.
174
00:10:07,540 --> 00:10:08,768
But his periods of high value
175
00:10:08,941 --> 00:10:11,705
were interspersed with phases
of no activity at all.
176
00:10:12,745 --> 00:10:14,440
I see references here
to anti-depressants,
177
00:10:14,614 --> 00:10:16,582
mood stabilizers. Bipolar?
178
00:10:16,916 --> 00:10:20,215
Eventually, he was seeing shadows
where none existed.
179
00:10:20,453 --> 00:10:23,251
Forced him into early retirement.
180
00:10:24,256 --> 00:10:25,553
What was he doing in New York?
181
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,756
Settled here after he washed out.
Wife's an American.
182
00:10:29,929 --> 00:10:32,898
Should say "ex-wife."
They split up two years ago.
183
00:10:33,065 --> 00:10:34,760
But every now and again,
even as a civilian,
184
00:10:34,934 --> 00:10:37,368
West would contact us
and say he had something.
185
00:10:37,536 --> 00:10:40,061
First few times, we followed through.
When they led to nothing...
186
00:10:40,239 --> 00:10:41,831
You lost his number.
187
00:10:42,008 --> 00:10:45,705
He didn't contact us
for a good long while.
188
00:10:46,045 --> 00:10:47,307
Until two weeks ago.
189
00:10:47,713 --> 00:10:49,772
Insisted that the information he had
was crucial
190
00:10:49,949 --> 00:10:51,712
to the preservation of the agency.
191
00:10:51,884 --> 00:10:54,045
Refused to talk about it on the phone.
192
00:10:54,220 --> 00:10:56,381
Wanted a face-to-face.
193
00:10:56,622 --> 00:10:59,284
- No one took him seriously.
- Until he was killed.
194
00:10:59,458 --> 00:11:02,689
The case is now in the hands
of the N.Y.P.D.
195
00:11:03,262 --> 00:11:05,890
Look, I'd like you to take a peek
into the investigation.
196
00:11:07,099 --> 00:11:09,567
See if anything jumps out.
197
00:11:09,802 --> 00:11:14,865
If West's murder is as it appears,
well, lovely.
198
00:11:15,975 --> 00:11:18,307
If it's more than that,
199
00:11:18,811 --> 00:11:20,472
you'll let us know.
200
00:11:20,646 --> 00:11:22,841
And we'll take it from there.
201
00:11:24,750 --> 00:11:25,774
That's it?
202
00:11:25,951 --> 00:11:28,579
I'd also like you to assassinate
the premier of China.
203
00:11:28,754 --> 00:11:30,187
Perhaps I should have led with that.
204
00:11:32,058 --> 00:11:34,117
Take a look at the case.
205
00:11:34,326 --> 00:11:38,262
Give us your two cents' worth, and
then we'll consider our score settled.
206
00:11:38,664 --> 00:11:41,633
You do know my brother's
the very opposite of a company man?
207
00:11:42,768 --> 00:11:46,204
Expecting him to abide
by your limitations is a folly.
208
00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:49,671
- Worried I'll show you up?
- More worried you'll start a war.
209
00:11:51,911 --> 00:11:54,038
Your conditions are acceptable.
210
00:11:54,647 --> 00:11:55,978
I'll be in touch.
211
00:12:09,995 --> 00:12:11,223
Hey.
212
00:12:12,298 --> 00:12:13,765
How you feeling?
213
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,095
About the same.
214
00:12:16,869 --> 00:12:19,736
I was trying to see if anything that
happened last night made the news,
215
00:12:19,905 --> 00:12:20,997
but so far, it's...
216
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,807
It's one of the benefits of being
a clandestine intelligence organization.
217
00:12:24,977 --> 00:12:27,707
They excel at sweeping things
under the rug.
218
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,249
- Is Miss Hudson gone?
- Yeah. I wasn't feeling like company.
219
00:12:36,922 --> 00:12:38,753
I want you to know that, uh...
220
00:12:39,825 --> 00:12:41,349
...l'm sorry.
221
00:12:41,527 --> 00:12:43,757
For everything you've been through,
222
00:12:43,929 --> 00:12:45,897
and whatever part
I might have played in it.
223
00:12:48,067 --> 00:12:49,659
If anything ever happened to you...
224
00:12:49,835 --> 00:12:51,860
So, what was that meeting
you had to go to?
225
00:12:53,639 --> 00:12:56,369
I've been assigned
to an investigative task by Ml6.
226
00:12:57,877 --> 00:13:00,778
In exchange for their assistance
last night.
227
00:13:00,946 --> 00:13:05,349
Once completed, they and my brother
will be out of our lives forever.
228
00:13:07,286 --> 00:13:08,514
What do they want us to do?
229
00:13:10,656 --> 00:13:12,886
Let me be very clear
on something.
230
00:13:13,058 --> 00:13:16,425
You're welcome to assist me,
but I have no expectation of that.
231
00:13:17,062 --> 00:13:19,860
Take whatever time
that you need to recuperate.
232
00:13:20,032 --> 00:13:23,866
Actually, work would be good right now.
I don't wanna sit around anymore.
233
00:13:24,036 --> 00:13:25,230
So, what's the task?
234
00:13:25,404 --> 00:13:27,804
Arthur Cadogan West.
235
00:13:27,973 --> 00:13:31,807
Found dead in his Greenpoint
apartment four nights ago.
236
00:13:31,977 --> 00:13:34,639
Two gunshots to the chest.
237
00:13:34,814 --> 00:13:37,374
Drawer F3.
238
00:13:37,550 --> 00:13:38,744
Knock yourselves out.
239
00:13:38,918 --> 00:13:40,909
Thank you.
240
00:13:41,821 --> 00:13:45,552
According to this,
West walked in on a burglary.
241
00:13:45,724 --> 00:13:48,591
Murder weapon
was never recovered.
242
00:13:56,001 --> 00:13:57,263
Dr. Hawes.
243
00:13:57,436 --> 00:14:00,337
- Was he intact when he arrived?
- What do you mean "intact"?
244
00:14:00,506 --> 00:14:03,964
- In possession of his extremities.
- Course he was. Why?
245
00:14:08,948 --> 00:14:10,210
HOLMES:
Not your work, I take it?
246
00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:11,976
No.
247
00:14:12,151 --> 00:14:14,585
No one who works here
would have done that.
248
00:14:15,654 --> 00:14:18,521
Let's assume it was the work
of someone who did not work here.
249
00:14:19,024 --> 00:14:21,083
I think you've been the victim
of a break-in.
250
00:14:26,498 --> 00:14:28,261
Why were you two
even looking at this guy?
251
00:14:28,834 --> 00:14:31,803
Bored. Came here in search
of an interesting case.
252
00:14:31,971 --> 00:14:33,131
As we are wont to do.
253
00:14:33,539 --> 00:14:37,031
Well, nobody noticed till now,
but there is an hour-long gap
254
00:14:37,209 --> 00:14:39,302
in the surveillance video
from three nights ago.
255
00:14:39,478 --> 00:14:41,605
Whoever did this knew
how to shut down the system
256
00:14:41,780 --> 00:14:44,476
and when to make their move.
The morgue's been shorthanded.
257
00:14:44,650 --> 00:14:47,949
The assistant ME on-call
was out at a scene half that night.
258
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,521
We gotta at least consider the
possibility this was an inside job.
259
00:14:52,091 --> 00:14:54,992
- Hm. You guys got nothing, right?
- No.
260
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,993
I'd be remiss if I didn't express
my doubts this was a member of staff.
261
00:14:58,163 --> 00:15:00,631
I spend a good deal of time here.
I've got a nose for traitors.
262
00:15:00,799 --> 00:15:02,164
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
263
00:15:02,334 --> 00:15:04,029
The chief.
264
00:15:04,236 --> 00:15:06,466
I'll tell him about your nose.
265
00:15:06,772 --> 00:15:07,796
Hello.
266
00:15:14,146 --> 00:15:15,579
Couldn't have told him the truth?
267
00:15:15,748 --> 00:15:17,807
That we were drawn into a web
of intrigue and deceit
268
00:15:17,983 --> 00:15:20,543
by my ne'er-do-well
brother-slash-Ml6 asset?
269
00:15:20,719 --> 00:15:23,654
No. Not without compromising
his cover as a clueless idiot.
270
00:15:23,856 --> 00:15:25,323
You meant what you said
about the arms
271
00:15:25,491 --> 00:15:27,891
not being taken
by someone who works here.
272
00:15:28,060 --> 00:15:29,960
Given Mr. West's former occupation
273
00:15:30,129 --> 00:15:32,893
and the infiltration skills
demonstrated by his limb thief,
274
00:15:33,065 --> 00:15:35,329
this is, in all likelihood,
the work of a field operative.
275
00:15:35,868 --> 00:15:39,065
I think Mycroft's associate is right.
There is more to Mr. West's murder
276
00:15:39,238 --> 00:15:40,262
than meets the eye.
277
00:15:42,908 --> 00:15:44,102
I don't understand why anyone
278
00:15:44,276 --> 00:15:46,608
would wanna steal
a dead man's arms, spy or not.
279
00:15:46,779 --> 00:15:48,303
I assume it's one of two reasons:
280
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,414
Either to retrieve evidence
or destroy it.
281
00:15:50,582 --> 00:15:52,880
WATSON: Okay. Well, according
to Hawes' autopsy report,
282
00:15:53,052 --> 00:15:55,714
there are no indications
of a struggle with the attackers.
283
00:15:55,888 --> 00:15:58,618
There's no defense wounds,
no skin under the nails.
284
00:15:59,224 --> 00:16:01,692
And other than a rather
pervasive case of eczema,
285
00:16:01,860 --> 00:16:04,852
Mr. West's arms
seem unremarkable.
286
00:16:05,397 --> 00:16:08,924
Well, the crime scene's been sealed,
so might be worth taking a look at that.
287
00:16:10,135 --> 00:16:11,602
Agreed.
288
00:16:11,770 --> 00:16:14,568
- Let me know what you find.
- Where are you going?
289
00:16:14,907 --> 00:16:18,468
The original detectives interviewed
Mr. West's ex-wife, Marion.
290
00:16:18,644 --> 00:16:21,010
She claimed to be out of touch
with the victim.
291
00:16:21,981 --> 00:16:24,677
Have a look at the address
on the shopping bags in the kitchen.
292
00:16:25,918 --> 00:16:27,977
He lives in Brooklyn,
she in Murray Hill.
293
00:16:28,153 --> 00:16:30,621
WATSON: The bags from this market
are from Third Avenue.
294
00:16:31,423 --> 00:16:34,392
So you think she was doing
the shopping for him.
295
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:35,720
So she lied to the police.
296
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,968
Why would anybody do that?
297
00:16:43,135 --> 00:16:45,797
Who would want to steal
Arthur's arms?
298
00:16:45,971 --> 00:16:47,871
Well, that's what we're
trying to find out.
299
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,099
But right now, we're more curious
why you lied
300
00:16:50,275 --> 00:16:52,766
to the detectives
who interviewed you.
301
00:16:53,579 --> 00:16:55,809
You claimed you hadn't seen
Mr. West in months.
302
00:16:55,981 --> 00:16:57,676
We stopped by a supermarket
on the way here.
303
00:16:57,850 --> 00:16:59,647
The young woman behind
the pharmacy counter,
304
00:16:59,818 --> 00:17:02,013
she confirmed that you regularly
filled prescriptions
305
00:17:02,187 --> 00:17:05,122
used to treat his bipolar disorder.
306
00:17:06,392 --> 00:17:11,796
Arthur and I tried to make our marriage
work, even after he got worse,
307
00:17:12,498 --> 00:17:14,159
but I wasn't strong enough.
308
00:17:14,833 --> 00:17:16,460
I still loved him though.
309
00:17:16,635 --> 00:17:19,832
I still wanted to make sure
that he was all right,
310
00:17:20,005 --> 00:17:22,337
but I have a boyfriend now.
311
00:17:22,608 --> 00:17:23,768
And he can get jealous.
312
00:17:23,942 --> 00:17:26,604
He didn't know that I was
still taking care of Arthur.
313
00:17:26,779 --> 00:17:28,644
He was here when the police
were questioning me,
314
00:17:28,814 --> 00:17:31,647
and I figured since I didn't know
anything anyway...
315
00:17:33,719 --> 00:17:35,414
l... I lied.
316
00:17:35,587 --> 00:17:38,283
Now, when you say your boyfriend
could get jealous,
317
00:17:38,457 --> 00:17:39,947
jealous enough to commit murder?
318
00:17:40,125 --> 00:17:42,650
We spent the weekend
in a B&B up in New Paltz.
319
00:17:42,828 --> 00:17:45,422
I still have all the receipts.
320
00:17:45,597 --> 00:17:48,725
Neither one of us was in town
when Arthur was killed.
321
00:17:49,501 --> 00:17:51,332
Are you the tattoo artist
or is your boyfriend?
322
00:17:52,071 --> 00:17:55,438
- Oh. Uh, I am.
- Oh, yeah? Any good?
323
00:17:55,607 --> 00:17:58,007
- Got a few myself.
- Oh. Heh.
324
00:17:58,710 --> 00:18:00,177
I don't get many complaints.
325
00:18:00,512 --> 00:18:03,379
Not an interest shared by
your ex-husband though? Hm?
326
00:18:08,687 --> 00:18:10,882
Oh, well.
Not for everyone, I suppose.

- Hey.
- You still at West's apartment?

Yes. Why?

00:18:19,298 --> 00:18:22,529
Photograph of his kitchen.
I noticed a roll of plastic food wrap.
331
00:18:22,701 --> 00:18:25,033
Doesn't look like he does
much cooking there though.
332

I want you to look and check,
333
00:18:26,638 --> 00:18:28,469
see if there are any other items there.
334
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:33,202
Moisturizing ointment, medical tape,
or antibacterial soap.

Why? What are you thinking?

00:18:39,218 --> 00:18:43,245
All those items, food wrap included,
are used in the aftercare of a tattoo.

Marion West was a tattoo artist.

I believe she inked
her ex-husband's arms.
339
00:18:48,260 --> 00:18:51,093
Except that West did not have tattoos.
We saw the pictures.
340
00:18:51,263 --> 00:18:54,232
Just because we couldn't see them
doesn't mean they weren't there.
341
00:18:54,399 --> 00:18:57,527
Tattoos can be created
using UV sensitive ink.
342
00:18:57,703 --> 00:19:00,365
Which means they can only
be viewed under a UV light.
343
00:19:00,539 --> 00:19:02,598
I think the dry skin
we saw on West's arms
344
00:19:02,774 --> 00:19:04,742
were tattoos
in the process of healing.
345
00:19:05,144 --> 00:19:07,044
Invisible-ink tattoos?
346
00:19:07,513 --> 00:19:10,846
Not only real, but they're quite popular
in certain subcultures.
347
00:19:11,016 --> 00:19:13,883
Right up there with glow sticks
and adult-sized pacifiers.
348
00:19:14,052 --> 00:19:16,282
I don't suppose you confirmed
any of this with Marion?
349
00:19:16,455 --> 00:19:18,980
Well, not surprisingly,
she chose to evade.
350
00:19:19,158 --> 00:19:21,058
I did notice a black light
amongst her equipment,
351
00:19:21,226 --> 00:19:24,320
but beyond that, we'll have to look
elsewhere for our proof.
352
00:19:24,696 --> 00:19:28,291
If I'm right, our former analyst
inscribed secrets onto his arms
353
00:19:28,467 --> 00:19:30,697
in invisible ink,
and shortly after his death,
354
00:19:30,869 --> 00:19:32,063
someone broke into the morgue,
355
00:19:32,237 --> 00:19:34,137
dismembered him
in order to obtain those secrets.
356
00:19:34,673 --> 00:19:36,265
You know how insane this sounds,
right?
357
00:19:36,441 --> 00:19:39,239
I remind you, you've entered
the world of spydom.
358
00:19:39,411 --> 00:19:42,312
Strangeness abounds.
I'm off to see Mycroft's handler.
359
00:19:42,481 --> 00:19:44,039
Okay.
360
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:49,544
Joan.
361
00:19:51,256 --> 00:19:53,281
Sherlock's not here.
I'll tell him you came by.
362
00:19:53,458 --> 00:19:55,517
MYCROFT:
Actually, I came to see you.
363
00:19:57,796 --> 00:19:59,229
No.
364
00:19:59,398 --> 00:20:03,061
- No to what?
- To whatever you came here to say.
365
00:20:03,235 --> 00:20:05,328
No, you can't come in.
No, I'm not all right.
366
00:20:05,671 --> 00:20:10,665
No, there is no possible future
for us once some time goes by.
367
00:20:11,777 --> 00:20:12,869
Just no.
368
00:20:13,045 --> 00:20:15,707
Joan, I came here to apologize.
369
00:20:16,548 --> 00:20:19,949
Because of choices I made
years ago,
370
00:20:20,118 --> 00:20:22,746
because of my obligation
to maintain secrecy,
371
00:20:22,921 --> 00:20:24,650
you were placed in terrible danger.
372
00:20:25,991 --> 00:20:29,688
Put through an ordeal no one
should ever have to go through.
373
00:20:30,095 --> 00:20:32,620
If you never want to see me again,
I'd understand.
374
00:20:32,998 --> 00:20:35,193
That's good, because I don't
wanna see you again.
375
00:20:36,835 --> 00:20:38,735
And it's not because
I almost got killed.
376
00:20:39,738 --> 00:20:43,037
It's because I cannot believe
a word out of your mouth.
377
00:20:44,710 --> 00:20:49,044
I know that you had your reasons
for everything that you did.
378
00:20:49,314 --> 00:20:51,509
But whatever they were,
you decided a long time ago
379
00:20:51,683 --> 00:20:53,344
that they were much more important
380
00:20:53,518 --> 00:20:56,715
than being honest with the people
who actually care about you.
381
00:20:56,888 --> 00:21:00,824
Someone who is capable
of that kind of deception,
382
00:21:01,293 --> 00:21:05,389
someone who can maintain it
for, literally, years,
383
00:21:06,298 --> 00:21:08,766
I could never feel comfortable with.
384
00:21:10,535 --> 00:21:14,301
Now, Sherlock may be
insensitive and intrusive,
385
00:21:14,473 --> 00:21:19,376
and if anything, too honest, but
with him, I know exactly where I stand.
386
00:21:22,381 --> 00:21:24,781
He deserves better than you.
387
00:21:28,120 --> 00:21:29,951
So do I.
388
00:21:31,923 --> 00:21:33,413
I understand.
389
00:21:48,807 --> 00:21:50,707
Holmes.
390
00:21:51,710 --> 00:21:53,371
The host didn't tell me you'd arrived.
391
00:21:53,545 --> 00:21:56,105
I came in a less orthodox entrance
to see if I could.
392
00:21:56,281 --> 00:21:57,373
I could.
393
00:21:58,317 --> 00:22:00,581
Let me guess, another asset?
Where did you plant this one?
394
00:22:00,752 --> 00:22:02,276
Nursing home?
Eyebrow barber?
395
00:22:02,454 --> 00:22:05,617
Sherlock Holmes, meet
Sir James Walter, deputy chief, SIS.
396
00:22:05,991 --> 00:22:08,721
May I assume you have
something to report?
397
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:10,154
You're aware of my assignment?
398
00:22:10,529 --> 00:22:12,429
I'm aware of everything.
399
00:22:13,265 --> 00:22:15,756
I believe it's best we take this
to a private room.
400
00:22:15,934 --> 00:22:18,334
I believe West's killers removed
something from his apartment,
401
00:22:18,503 --> 00:22:21,438
which only later sparked the discovery
he had tattooed himself.
402
00:22:21,973 --> 00:22:23,565
Thus the need for the second crime,
403
00:22:23,742 --> 00:22:27,075
in which they infiltrated the morgue
and stole his arms.
404
00:22:27,245 --> 00:22:29,611
And all this from the address
on a shopping bag?
405
00:22:30,015 --> 00:22:31,448
The world is full of obvious things,
406
00:22:31,616 --> 00:22:33,481
which nobody, by any chance,
ever observes.
407
00:22:34,086 --> 00:22:36,452
- Save you.
- Save me.
408
00:22:36,722 --> 00:22:38,747
You're old enough
to have spied for Churchill.
409
00:22:38,924 --> 00:22:42,052
The importance of details
should hardly come as a surprise.
410
00:22:42,227 --> 00:22:45,025
Obviously, we should've taken West
more seriously when he called us.
411
00:22:45,197 --> 00:22:47,165
He cried wolf too many times.
412
00:22:47,332 --> 00:22:50,096
And the fact that he'd taken
to storing his secrets on his skin
413
00:22:50,702 --> 00:22:54,263
speaks to the echoes
of an unwell mind.
414
00:22:55,774 --> 00:22:57,469
SHERRINGTON:
Any idea what the tattoos mean?
415
00:22:58,043 --> 00:22:59,533
Not yet.
416
00:23:01,413 --> 00:23:03,347
You're going to keep working
for us, then?
417
00:23:03,882 --> 00:23:07,477
It's an interesting case.
More so than I would've expected.
418
00:23:07,652 --> 00:23:09,643
I'm quite pregnant with it now.
419
00:23:12,991 --> 00:23:15,016
[SIGHS]
420
00:23:23,201 --> 00:23:25,829
WATSON:
So I just heard from Hawes.
421
00:23:26,037 --> 00:23:28,335
He took a closer look
at the autopsy photos of West's arms.
422
00:23:28,507 --> 00:23:31,101
He does think the dry skin
formed some sort of pattern.
423
00:23:31,276 --> 00:23:34,871
- He just can't make out what it was.
- The mystery of the tattoos persists.
424
00:23:35,881 --> 00:23:37,906
[SIGHS]
425
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,312
I know what it's like.
426
00:23:43,922 --> 00:23:45,583
To be deceived by a lover.
427
00:23:47,092 --> 00:23:48,252
Irene.
428
00:23:48,427 --> 00:23:49,917
Moriarty.
429
00:23:52,364 --> 00:23:58,166
It's not my favorite topic, but if you
thought discussing that might help...
430
00:24:02,808 --> 00:24:04,537
There is something
I wanna talk to you about.
431
00:24:04,709 --> 00:24:06,108
It's just not about Mycroft.
432
00:24:08,246 --> 00:24:09,270
Not exactly.
433
00:24:10,115 --> 00:24:12,845
[DOORBELL RINGING]
434
00:24:24,062 --> 00:24:26,724
I'm sorry. Is Sherlock Holmes here?
435
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,768
- Mrs. West?
- I couldn't talk earlier
436
00:24:30,936 --> 00:24:32,028
in front of the police.
437
00:24:36,041 --> 00:24:39,067
I've been under surveillance
for days.
438
00:24:39,244 --> 00:24:40,677
Ever since Arthur was killed.
439
00:24:40,846 --> 00:24:43,406
But I made sure
I wasn't followed here.
440
00:24:43,582 --> 00:24:45,777
So how exactly did you know
where "here" was?
441
00:24:45,951 --> 00:24:48,419
Arthur always told me
if anything ever happened to him,
442
00:24:49,387 --> 00:24:51,582
you were the one man
in New York I could trust.
443
00:24:52,023 --> 00:24:53,650
Interesting.
I didn't know your husband.
444
00:24:53,825 --> 00:24:56,293
He knew you. Ah, I'm sorry.
445
00:24:56,461 --> 00:24:59,259
I'll explain everything,
but the reason why I'm here
446
00:24:59,431 --> 00:25:02,423
is I know why someone
took his arms.
447
00:25:02,601 --> 00:25:04,262
They had information on them.
448
00:25:04,436 --> 00:25:07,564
- Tattoos you could only see under...
- Under UV light. Yes, we know.
449
00:25:07,739 --> 00:25:09,570
What we don't know
is what they depict.
450
00:25:09,741 --> 00:25:10,901
Can you tell us?
451
00:25:11,076 --> 00:25:12,907
MARION:
I can do better.
452
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:16,572
I can show you.
453
00:25:27,392 --> 00:25:30,054
MARION:
It was a little over six years ago.
454
00:25:30,228 --> 00:25:31,559
You were still in London.
455
00:25:31,730 --> 00:25:34,290
You were making waves
at Scotland Yard.
456
00:25:34,466 --> 00:25:38,527
The agency had taken notice,
and so Arthur was assigned to you.
457
00:25:38,703 --> 00:25:41,672
- "Assigned"?
- He was told to keep an eye on you.
458
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,934
Nothing invasive.
Just to collect data.
459
00:25:45,110 --> 00:25:49,012
- He was spying on you.
- It was more complicated than that.
460
00:25:49,180 --> 00:25:50,613
Arthur was an analyst,
461
00:25:50,782 --> 00:25:53,046
and there were people
who didn't know what to make of you.
462
00:25:53,218 --> 00:25:54,776
He assessed you.
463
00:25:54,953 --> 00:25:57,945
Helped to make them understand
you were one of the good guys.
464
00:25:58,123 --> 00:26:00,648
- Oh, I'm touched.
- I know how it sounds,
465
00:26:00,825 --> 00:26:03,794
but he liked you,
466
00:26:03,962 --> 00:26:07,523
what you stood for, and if he hadn't
done it, someone else would have.
467
00:26:07,699 --> 00:26:08,996
But you were a civilian, right?
468
00:26:09,167 --> 00:26:12,364
So why would an analyst at Ml6
tell you about his work?
469
00:26:12,938 --> 00:26:14,303
MARION:
Toward the end,
470
00:26:14,472 --> 00:26:18,602
Arthur knew that his disease
could steer him wrong sometimes.
471
00:26:18,777 --> 00:26:21,075
He started telling me things
to help him prove
472
00:26:21,246 --> 00:26:25,012
that his theories weren't just delusions,
to help keep him sane.
473
00:26:25,183 --> 00:26:27,981
My brother ever come up
in these conversations?
474
00:26:28,153 --> 00:26:31,122
If you're asking me if Arthur
told me he's an asset,
475
00:26:31,289 --> 00:26:32,620
yes, he did.
476
00:26:33,291 --> 00:26:35,020
A little bit of a gossip.
477
00:26:35,193 --> 00:26:37,559
If this is Ml6's idea of an analyst,
the British government
478
00:26:37,729 --> 00:26:40,527
- should be falling any day now.
MARION: He had a problem.
479
00:26:40,699 --> 00:26:42,860
And he needed someone
to help him.
480
00:26:43,034 --> 00:26:44,934
Tell me that doesn't sound familiar.
481
00:26:46,871 --> 00:26:48,771
The numbers. What are they?
482
00:26:49,541 --> 00:26:54,638
Uh, Arthur had become convinced
there was a mole inside Ml6.
483
00:26:54,813 --> 00:26:58,010
Someone selling secrets to a spy
based here in New York.
484
00:26:58,183 --> 00:27:01,050
He hadn't managed
to identify the mole, but...
485
00:27:01,219 --> 00:27:02,379
The numbers,
486
00:27:02,554 --> 00:27:04,021
can you explain them?
487
00:27:04,489 --> 00:27:05,979
No.
488
00:27:06,858 --> 00:27:09,759
He wasn't lucid
the day he came to see me.
489
00:27:09,928 --> 00:27:12,795
He said they were important,
that they would help him prove
490
00:27:12,964 --> 00:27:14,226
he was right about the mole.
491
00:27:14,399 --> 00:27:16,424
- But nothing else?
- No.
492
00:27:16,601 --> 00:27:20,230
So all you did was tattoo a bunch
of numbers and letters on him?
493
00:27:21,072 --> 00:27:25,031
He said if I didn't help him,
he would do it himself.
494
00:27:25,210 --> 00:27:26,370
I thought that was worse.
495
00:27:27,045 --> 00:27:29,377
Why would he want them
on him at all?
496
00:27:29,881 --> 00:27:32,111
He said they were his backup copy.
497
00:27:32,283 --> 00:27:35,582
He hid the real proof
someplace else. He...
498
00:27:35,754 --> 00:27:37,585
He was paranoid.
499
00:27:37,756 --> 00:27:39,587
He thought if they were on his arms,
500
00:27:39,758 --> 00:27:42,420
he would have a copy
that no one else could steal.
501
00:27:42,594 --> 00:27:44,494
Obviously, he was wrong.
502
00:27:45,764 --> 00:27:50,428
This, uh, "spy," the man in New York,
did he tell you his name?
503
00:27:50,602 --> 00:27:52,502
Or was that tattooed
on one of his fingers?
504
00:27:52,671 --> 00:27:53,831
Julian Afkhami.
505
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,099
He owns a bookstore in Queens.
506
00:27:57,409 --> 00:27:59,969
Arthur said he could prove

00:37:30,915 --> 00:37:34,407
and the competitors
Sherlock managed to elude
679
00:37:34,952 --> 00:37:36,180
were British agents.
680
00:37:36,887 --> 00:37:40,015
Luckily, Ml6 thwarted the attack,
so no one was hurt,
681
00:37:40,191 --> 00:37:43,957
but in the process,
Sherlock's involvement came to light.
682
00:37:46,130 --> 00:37:47,620
He, uh...
683
00:37:49,500 --> 00:37:52,833
...could've been sent to prison
for a very long time.
684
00:37:55,306 --> 00:37:57,570
So Ml6 offered you a deal.
685
00:37:58,576 --> 00:38:00,601
MYCROFT:
By my handler.
686
00:38:01,679 --> 00:38:05,945
He said if I came back to work,
Sherlock's problems would disappear.
687
00:38:08,819 --> 00:38:12,311
WATSON: In other words,
everything that you did for Ml6,
688
00:38:12,490 --> 00:38:15,254
letting drug traffickers
use your restaurants,
689
00:38:15,726 --> 00:38:17,819
that wasn't for money,
690
00:38:18,462 --> 00:38:21,124
or to save your business.
That was all to protect Sherlock.
691
00:38:25,436 --> 00:38:27,666
Why didn't you tell him?
692
00:38:30,441 --> 00:38:31,908
Why didn't you tell me?
693
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,375
And accomplish what?
694
00:38:38,015 --> 00:38:39,277
Telling you after the fact
695
00:38:39,450 --> 00:38:43,511
would be a paltry attempt
to dodge blame, and telling him...
696
00:38:45,323 --> 00:38:48,053
...it could've sent him
down a bad road.
697
00:38:49,060 --> 00:38:50,891
And you know that
better than anyone.
698
00:38:52,997 --> 00:38:55,830
He's more fragile
than he cares to admit.
699
00:38:59,603 --> 00:39:01,434
The two of us, we...
700
00:39:02,973 --> 00:39:05,441
We share that burden, don't we?
701
00:39:06,944 --> 00:39:10,004
Taking care of him,
whether he realizes it or not.
702
00:40:10,307 --> 00:40:12,400
Mycroft.
703
00:40:21,919 --> 00:40:22,977
What?
704
00:40:24,088 --> 00:40:27,251
Only that this is quite literally
the last place I expected to be
705
00:40:27,425 --> 00:40:28,858
at the beginning of the day.

[MYCROFT SIGHS]
709
00:40:37,768 --> 00:40:39,668
Please don't do that.
710
00:40:40,371 --> 00:40:41,929
Whatever it is, just say it.
711
00:40:42,106 --> 00:40:46,042
No. It risks putting an irreparable
damper on the mood.
712
00:40:46,744 --> 00:40:48,268
WATSON:
Mm.
713
00:40:48,479 --> 00:40:50,310
Sherlock?
714
00:40:52,516 --> 00:40:56,213
As we both know, he's gonna
make things very difficult for us.
715
00:40:59,457 --> 00:41:01,391
I told him
I was moving out last night.
716
00:41:04,562 --> 00:41:05,620
How did that go?
717
00:41:07,298 --> 00:41:09,129
Horribly.
718
00:41:09,867 --> 00:41:12,836
But you know what?
Right now, I don't care about that.
719
00:41:13,504 --> 00:41:15,768
Right now,
that is his problem, not mine.
720
00:41:18,242 --> 00:41:20,176
Correction.

Mr. Sherrington, I have some news.

I believe I know who the mole is

What the hell was that?
728
00:41:56,013 --> 00:41:58,174
- Good God, man.
- Sherlock, what are you doing here?
729
00:41:58,349 --> 00:42:00,180
I could ask you the same thing.
730
00:42:00,351 --> 00:42:02,182
If only there were time.

What are you doing?
732
00:42:04,822 --> 00:42:06,153
- You're gonna wanna pack a bag.
- Am I?
733
00:42:06,323 --> 00:42:07,950
You both need
to get out of here now.
734
00:42:08,125 --> 00:42:09,649
- Why?
- His fingerprints are on the gun
735
00:42:09,827 --> 00:42:11,624
- which was used to kill Arthur West.
- What?
736
00:42:12,096 --> 00:42:14,257
It turned up,
replete with your fingerprints.
737
00:42:14,431 --> 00:42:16,490
Police are still running them
through their database.
738
00:42:16,667 --> 00:42:18,794
- I recognized them straightaway.
- How's that possible?
739
00:42:18,969 --> 00:42:22,461
I confess to studying them
quite intently when we were children.
740
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,768
Your whorls and loops
are as familiar to me as your very face.
741
00:42:25,943 --> 00:42:29,572
As is the scar across your middle
and ring finger on your right hand.
742
00:42:29,747 --> 00:42:33,478
Knife trick gone awry, age 13,
if memory serves. Pathetic.

- Sherlock, I don't understand.
- It's quite simple.

You're being framed.

For murder and treason.
