00:00:03,603 --> 00:00:05,730
- How much heroin is that?
- Oh, it's enough.
3
00:00:09,709 --> 00:00:12,234
British Intelligence
isn't here to arrest me.
4
00:00:12,412 --> 00:00:14,539
I am British Intelligence.
5
00:00:14,714 --> 00:00:17,182
- Tell me about Sudomo Han.
MYCROFT: About three years ago,
6
00:00:17,350 --> 00:00:19,477
when Sherlock was at the height
of his drug use,
7
00:00:19,652 --> 00:00:23,053
Han approached him
to act as a sort of confidential courier.
8
00:00:23,223 --> 00:00:24,554
Sherlock took the job.
9
00:00:24,724 --> 00:00:26,749
Unfortunately,
what Sherlock didn't realize
10
00:00:26,926 --> 00:00:29,417
was that Han was financing
a terrorist plot.
11
00:00:29,596 --> 00:00:33,760
In other words, everything that you did
for Ml6 was all to protect Sherlock.
12
00:00:33,933 --> 00:00:36,265
Sherrington.
You must be the handler.
13
00:00:36,436 --> 00:00:39,269
I have a case, I think you'd call it.
14
00:00:39,439 --> 00:00:43,341
HAWES: Arthur Cadogan West.
Two gunshots to the chest.
15
00:00:43,510 --> 00:00:46,308
Arthur West thought there was a mole
in Ml6.
16
00:00:46,646 --> 00:00:48,944
Whoever stole his arms
wanted these numbers.
17
00:00:49,115 --> 00:00:51,345
West thought they were proof
of the mole's existence.
18
00:00:51,518 --> 00:00:55,454
Work for us, Sherlock. Officially.
Permanently.
19
00:00:56,656 --> 00:00:58,248
- I'm moving out.
- Of?
20
00:00:58,425 --> 00:01:01,019
The brownstone.
I need to get my own place. It's time.
21
00:01:03,296 --> 00:01:04,923
- Ah!
- Good God, man.
22
00:01:05,098 --> 00:01:08,226
- Sherlock, what are you doing here?
- It's quite simple.
23
00:01:08,401 --> 00:01:10,028
You're being framed.
24
00:01:10,203 --> 00:01:11,670
For murder and treason.
25
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:15,264
MYCROFT:
Sherlock.
26
00:01:15,442 --> 00:01:17,672
What part of "you're being framed"
do you not understand?
27
00:01:17,844 --> 00:01:18,868
For treason? For murder?
28
00:01:19,045 --> 00:01:21,013
Arthur West thought there was a mole
inside Ml6.
29
00:01:21,181 --> 00:01:23,206
Are you saying that the mole
is framing Mycroft?
30
00:01:23,383 --> 00:01:25,681
- Quite successfully, as it turns out.
MYCROFT: Bollocks.
31
00:01:25,852 --> 00:01:28,616
You realized Joan was here and you
manufactured a reason to intervene.
32
00:01:28,788 --> 00:01:30,085
When Ml6 asked you to join them,
33
00:01:30,256 --> 00:01:32,383
did they tell you you'd be an asset
or just as ass?
34
00:01:32,559 --> 00:01:35,551
Okay, back up. You said the gun that
was used to kill West just turned up?
35
00:01:35,728 --> 00:01:38,526
- Obviously planted by the mole.
- Wait. You said my prints were on it.
36
00:01:38,698 --> 00:01:41,132
That's impossible.
I've only ever handled my own weapon.
37
00:01:41,301 --> 00:01:44,236
Fingerprint transference would be
child's play to a well-trained spy.
38
00:01:44,404 --> 00:01:46,804
If you don't know that by now,
then you deserve to be framed.
39
00:01:47,373 --> 00:01:50,001
In my experience,
the best frame-ups tend to terminate
40
00:01:50,176 --> 00:01:51,803
with the murder of the framee.
41
00:01:52,545 --> 00:01:54,240
MYCROFT:
What are you doing?
42
00:01:54,414 --> 00:01:56,439
HOLMES:
Proving a point.
43
00:01:58,785 --> 00:02:00,343
Your car.
44
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,818
I looked it over on the way up here.
An impressive vehicle.
45
00:02:02,989 --> 00:02:04,980
I particularly like
the remote-starter function.

[ALARMS BLARING]
48
00:02:11,631 --> 00:02:12,655
Should we go now?
49
00:02:12,832 --> 00:02:15,062
Or would you like to see
what else the mole has in store?
50
00:02:52,805 --> 00:02:54,272
HOLMES:
Make yourselves at home.
51
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,374
Don't touch any of the first editions.
52
00:02:56,543 --> 00:02:58,568
Or Watson.
53
00:03:01,514 --> 00:03:03,106
MYCROFT:
What is this place?
54
00:03:04,284 --> 00:03:07,879
It was restored and stocked
by one of Miss Hudson's patrons.
55
00:03:08,054 --> 00:03:09,419
He intended to give it to Columbia,
56
00:03:09,589 --> 00:03:12,490
but apparently he's got some issues
with the way they teach Greek history.
57
00:03:12,659 --> 00:03:16,755
Anyway, she's looking after it
while that litigation sorts itself out.
58
00:03:16,930 --> 00:03:19,592
- Are you sure we weren't followed?
- You know my methods.
59
00:03:19,766 --> 00:03:22,701
Besides,
I think our mole is a force of one.
60
00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:25,633
I saw no evidence that Mycroft's flat
was being monitored.
61
00:03:25,805 --> 00:03:27,932
Which suggests that our traitor
is finding it difficult
62
00:03:28,107 --> 00:03:30,098
to stalk my brother
whilst holding down his day job.
63
00:03:32,111 --> 00:03:34,511
I know it's a lot, but remember,
we're ahead of the game.
64
00:03:34,681 --> 00:03:36,979
No one but Sherlock knows
the prints on the gun were yours.
65
00:03:37,150 --> 00:03:40,517
That's not true, actually. I called Ml6.
I told them about the prints.
66
00:03:40,687 --> 00:03:42,655
I also told them
I think that you're the traitor.
67
00:03:42,822 --> 00:03:44,016
Why would you...?
68
00:03:44,190 --> 00:03:47,455
One, the frame-up is on
whether we like it or not.
69
00:03:47,627 --> 00:03:50,095
Your prints will be identified.
The mole will see to that.
70
00:03:50,263 --> 00:03:52,424
Two, I plan to feign allegiance
to Ml6
71
00:03:52,599 --> 00:03:54,464
so I can search for the culprit
from the inside.
72
00:03:54,634 --> 00:03:56,329
You're my brother.
Do you really think...?
73
00:03:56,502 --> 00:03:58,265
That I can convince them
I dislike you enough,
74
00:03:58,438 --> 00:04:00,838
to help them bring you to justice?
I shall dig deep.
75
00:04:01,374 --> 00:04:03,274
- Where you going?
- The agency's favorite local.
76
00:04:03,443 --> 00:04:05,104
I've got a meeting with them
in 20 minutes.
77
00:04:05,278 --> 00:04:07,542
Feel free to resume your rutting.
78
00:04:13,686 --> 00:04:14,983
Mr. Holmes, you're late.
79
00:04:15,388 --> 00:04:16,753
Apologies.
80
00:04:16,923 --> 00:04:18,185
It's my first cabal.
81
00:04:18,825 --> 00:04:20,884
Before we go further,
I want to make something clear.
82
00:04:21,060 --> 00:04:23,585
I'm as motivated to find my brother
as anyone in this room.
83
00:04:23,763 --> 00:04:26,857
May I remind you there's still no proof
that he compromised the agency?
84
00:04:27,033 --> 00:04:28,864
Only that he killed Arthur West.
85
00:04:29,035 --> 00:04:30,696
Who was certain enough
of a mole's presence
86
00:04:30,870 --> 00:04:32,804
to tattoo both of his arms
with evidence.
87
00:04:32,972 --> 00:04:35,964
This evidence? This gibberish?
88
00:04:36,142 --> 00:04:38,167
Someone thought that gibberish
was important enough
89
00:04:38,344 --> 00:04:40,710
to infiltrate a city morgue
and make off with both his arms.
90
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,007
Mycroft and I go way back,
as you know.
91
00:04:43,416 --> 00:04:47,352
He wasn't one of us, not exactly,
but he did good work.
92
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,284
So, what could have possessed him
to turn traitor?
93
00:04:50,456 --> 00:04:53,084
If I had to guess,
I would say a woman.
94
00:04:53,259 --> 00:04:55,921
He's always exhibited poor judgment
when it comes to the fairer sex,
95
00:04:56,095 --> 00:04:58,154
so perhaps he was seduced
into his betrayals.
96
00:04:58,598 --> 00:05:02,125
It's my understanding
he'd taken to bedding your partner.
97
00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:05,430
While I think it's unlikely
that she is the corrupting influence,
98
00:05:05,605 --> 00:05:08,699
it has become apparent of late that
I do not know her as well as I thought.
99
00:05:08,875 --> 00:05:12,003
If she engages in any
suspicious activity, I will alert you.
100
00:05:12,178 --> 00:05:13,202
In the meantime,
101
00:05:13,379 --> 00:05:15,142
I need everything you have
on my brother.
102
00:05:15,315 --> 00:05:17,840
I need his files.
I need his records of correspondence...
103
00:05:18,017 --> 00:05:21,453
- You don't have clearance.
- Data, data, data.
104
00:05:21,621 --> 00:05:24,089
I cannot make bricks without clay.
105
00:05:24,257 --> 00:05:27,283
I know there's no love lost
between you and your brother.
106
00:05:27,460 --> 00:05:31,260
But the fact remains,
he is your brother.
107
00:05:31,431 --> 00:05:34,696
You no longer wish my assistance?
Very well.
108
00:05:35,768 --> 00:05:39,670
But you should know, should I divine
Mycroft's whereabouts by myself,
109
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,240
you have my word
the agency will be the first to know.
110
00:05:44,977 --> 00:05:48,242
Well, the good news is
that this place is pretty secure.
111
00:05:48,414 --> 00:05:50,075
But if you're gonna be here
for a few days,
112
00:05:50,249 --> 00:05:53,013
we're gonna have to get you
some food.
113
00:05:53,953 --> 00:05:57,946
He has no ambition and no energy.
114
00:05:58,491 --> 00:06:02,120
He will not even go out of his way
to verify his own solutions.
115
00:06:02,829 --> 00:06:06,060
He would rather be
considered wrong
116
00:06:06,299 --> 00:06:09,462
than go to the trouble
of proving himself right.
117
00:06:12,505 --> 00:06:16,498
Something I overheard Sherlock say
to my father once.
118
00:06:17,677 --> 00:06:19,941
He was 15.
119
00:06:20,747 --> 00:06:22,942
I can't even picture him at 15.
120
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:27,946
It hurts.
121
00:06:28,121 --> 00:06:29,918
And to be
122
00:06:30,089 --> 00:06:33,684
assessed like that.
123
00:06:35,061 --> 00:06:37,120
He knows a lot.
He doesn't know everything.
124
00:06:37,897 --> 00:06:39,626
I could have followed Father
into business.
125
00:06:39,799 --> 00:06:45,760
I could have followed Sherlock
into his passions.
126
00:06:45,938 --> 00:06:48,998
But I wanted
127
00:06:50,910 --> 00:06:52,172
less, I suppose.
128
00:06:53,813 --> 00:06:56,475
You are a success.
You own restaurants all over Europe.
129
00:06:56,649 --> 00:06:58,241
The things you've done
for your country...
130
00:06:58,418 --> 00:06:59,715
Folly.
131
00:07:00,420 --> 00:07:02,320
Obviously.
132
00:07:03,423 --> 00:07:06,915
I should have said no
when the agency approached me.
133
00:07:08,060 --> 00:07:11,393
But I remembered
what Sherlock said.
134
00:07:11,764 --> 00:07:16,292
And I remembered my father
failing to disagree.
135
00:07:17,036 --> 00:07:18,697
And I...
136
00:07:19,972 --> 00:07:25,376
I thought I could prove,
at least to myself, that I was
137
00:07:26,245 --> 00:07:28,236
more than what they thought.
138
00:07:31,150 --> 00:07:32,174
Idiocy.
139
00:07:43,329 --> 00:07:45,229
Took your time.
140
00:07:47,834 --> 00:07:49,665
WATSON:
That's the store Julian Afkhami owns.
141
00:07:49,836 --> 00:07:52,464
The man Arthur West thought
was an Iranian spy.
142
00:07:52,638 --> 00:07:55,630
The same man he thought
was corresponding with the mole.
143
00:07:56,676 --> 00:07:58,041
I get why you'd wanna surveil it.
144
00:07:58,211 --> 00:08:01,408
What I don't get is why you thought
you needed to rent a car.
145
00:08:01,581 --> 00:08:04,607
I didn't rent it.
I just needed somewhere to sit.
146
00:08:05,551 --> 00:08:07,109
You broke into this car?
147
00:08:07,286 --> 00:08:10,016
It was the best available
vantage point.
148
00:08:12,725 --> 00:08:14,158
So the other day,
149
00:08:14,327 --> 00:08:18,491
you were, quite appropriately,
angry with Mycroft.
150
00:08:18,664 --> 00:08:21,428
And then this morning,
I find you in his bed.
151
00:08:24,670 --> 00:08:26,797
So, what changed?
152
00:08:28,007 --> 00:08:29,372
So how'd it go with Ml6?
153
00:08:31,878 --> 00:08:32,970
Poorly.
154
00:08:33,145 --> 00:08:35,739
My assistance is no longer welcome.
155
00:08:35,915 --> 00:08:39,009
Hence my decision to approach
this problem from a different angle.
156
00:08:39,185 --> 00:08:40,447
Hmm.
157
00:08:40,620 --> 00:08:43,589
Joan Watson, meet Julian Afkhami.
158
00:08:43,956 --> 00:08:45,787
His decision to keep late hours
159
00:08:45,958 --> 00:08:49,416
has thus far prevented my inspection
of his workplace.
160
00:08:49,595 --> 00:08:52,758
But I was able to root around
to the basement beneath the building.
161
00:08:53,199 --> 00:08:55,190
Marion told us
Arthur had been monitoring him,
162
00:08:55,368 --> 00:08:58,804
so naturally,
I looked in the telephone junction box,
163
00:08:58,971 --> 00:09:04,136
and I found this
spliced into the Azatan Books line.
164
00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:07,108
- What is it?
- It's a transmitter.
165
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,908
Can't be certain it's Arthur West's,
of course,
166
00:09:10,082 --> 00:09:13,313
but given his obsession with Afkhami,
he seems the most likely culprit.
167
00:09:13,486 --> 00:09:17,354
Okay. So West listened in on his calls.
What could he have learned?
168
00:09:18,324 --> 00:09:20,315
What are the chances
Afkhami used his business line
169
00:09:20,493 --> 00:09:21,687

176

Stock.
177
00:09:44,116 --> 00:09:47,483
As far as I can tell, this place is exactly
what it looks like. A bookstore.

Okay. You are angry

Not angry. I'm disappointed.

I don't wanna stop working with you.

You just wanna do it
on your own terms, is that it?
187
00:10:09,075 --> 00:10:11,305
I'm not the one with terms. You are.
You're made of them.
188
00:10:11,477 --> 00:10:14,378

- Or perhaps this was a mistake.
189

You mean breaking in here?
190
00:10:22,622 --> 00:10:25,056
That surge protector.
191
00:10:25,424 --> 00:10:27,984
It's right next to the register, the fax,
the credit-card scanner,
192
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,960
but they're all plugged into this
extension cord, which runs back there.
193
00:10:45,344 --> 00:10:46,402
That's not a protector.
194
00:10:46,579 --> 00:10:48,706
That's a scrambler.
195
00:10:49,882 --> 00:10:53,045
By the looks of it,
it's been here for quite some time.
196
00:10:53,919 --> 00:10:55,511
So whenever Afkhami wanted
to communicate
197
00:10:55,688 --> 00:10:57,713
with anyone related to his spy work,
198
00:10:57,890 --> 00:11:00,688
he'd plug his phone
into one of these jacks,
199
00:11:00,860 --> 00:11:02,851
and the scrambler would have
prevented Arthur West,
200
00:11:03,029 --> 00:11:06,863
or any snoop, from making out
a single word of their conversations.
201
00:11:07,166 --> 00:11:08,531
Here.
202
00:11:08,701 --> 00:11:12,831
I don't understand. If West couldn't
make out what Afkhami was saying,
203
00:11:13,339 --> 00:11:15,068
then how did he know
there was a mole in Ml6?
204
00:11:16,575 --> 00:11:19,544
You know,
I believe I know precisely how.
205
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,047
West used that to monitor the calls
between the mole and Afkhami.
206
00:11:31,223 --> 00:11:33,657
Unfortunately, Afkhami used
the scrambler that we found
207
00:11:33,826 --> 00:11:35,589
to garble those conversations.
208
00:11:35,761 --> 00:11:37,422
So all West would've been able
to determine
209
00:11:37,596 --> 00:11:39,291
is the meta data pertaining
to each call.
210
00:11:39,465 --> 00:11:40,489
Meta data?
211
00:11:40,666 --> 00:11:43,226
He would've been able to determine
the date and time of each call,
212
00:11:43,402 --> 00:11:45,495
but more crucially,
the location of the caller.
213
00:11:46,672 --> 00:11:48,970
That's the information he had tattooed
on his arms.
214
00:11:49,141 --> 00:11:50,540
These are obviously
dates and times,
215
00:11:50,710 --> 00:11:52,678
but how do you get a location
from that column?
216
00:11:52,845 --> 00:11:55,712
Naturally, the mole would have used
disposable phones to contact Afkhami,
217
00:11:55,881 --> 00:11:57,644
but the calls themselves
218
00:11:57,817 --> 00:12:00,081
would've been routed
through the nearest cell-phone tower.
219
00:12:00,252 --> 00:12:01,776
Now, every cell-phone tower
in the world
220
00:12:01,954 --> 00:12:05,048
has a radio transmitter
with its own unique call signal.
221
00:12:05,224 --> 00:12:07,715
The first letter of each call signal
narrows the location down.
222
00:12:07,893 --> 00:12:09,520
So a call signal with the first letter K
223
00:12:09,695 --> 00:12:11,993
originated in the United States,
west of the Mississippi.
224
00:12:12,164 --> 00:12:14,792
A W is the east.
G is our homeland of Great Britain.
225
00:12:14,967 --> 00:12:16,730
You'll see many of the calls
originated there.

I is Italy and so on and so forth.
227
00:12:19,105 --> 00:12:23,303
Now, if we can determine who in Ml6
called Afkhami from these locations
228
00:12:23,476 --> 00:12:25,876
on the dates and times in question,
229
00:12:26,045 --> 00:12:27,512
we'll have our mole.
230
00:12:27,913 --> 00:12:30,780

originate?

on those dates?

He went to the same places you did.

Arthur West and then framed you.

00:19:11,250 --> 00:19:13,241
Sorry about that.
Sherlock's not here right now.
339
00:19:13,619 --> 00:19:17,385
That's quite all right. I was actually
rather hoping to have a word with you.
340
00:19:19,091 --> 00:19:21,889
I was just keeping up
with the rest of our caseload.
341
00:19:22,060 --> 00:19:24,551
I'm expecting a Skype
from one of our contacts any minute.
342
00:19:24,730 --> 00:19:25,754
Oh, I won't keep you long.
343
00:19:25,931 --> 00:19:27,922
I just wanted to pick your brain
for a little while.
344
00:19:28,367 --> 00:19:31,200
I must admit, Mycroft has disappeared
more effectively
345
00:19:31,370 --> 00:19:33,270
than I'd have thought possible.
346
00:19:33,438 --> 00:19:35,963
It's made the investigation
a tad frustrating.
347
00:19:36,875 --> 00:19:37,933
So I gather.
348
00:19:39,111 --> 00:19:41,545
From what I understand,
349
00:19:42,047 --> 00:19:44,641
you and Mycroft were involved
for a time.
350
00:19:45,517 --> 00:19:49,385
I wondered if you had any personal
insights as to where he might be.
351
00:19:49,888 --> 00:19:51,549
Insights. Um...
352
00:19:51,723 --> 00:19:54,283
I think you're asking
the wrong person.
353
00:19:54,459 --> 00:19:57,758
I had no idea he was tied up
with Le Milieu or with you.
354
00:19:57,930 --> 00:20:01,422
Turns out I know next to nothing
about Mycroft Holmes.
355
00:20:02,768 --> 00:20:04,497
Fair enough.
356
00:20:05,704 --> 00:20:07,797
So, what about your investigation?
357
00:20:07,973 --> 00:20:09,270
Anything worth sharing?
358
00:20:09,441 --> 00:20:11,306
Uh, no major breakthroughs.
359
00:20:11,476 --> 00:20:13,239
Although we are investigating
the possibility
360
00:20:13,412 --> 00:20:15,710
that he purchased some property
in the Catskills
361
00:20:15,881 --> 00:20:17,644
under the name
of one of his investors.
362
00:20:17,816 --> 00:20:19,579
There's a chance
he might be hiding out there,
363
00:20:19,751 --> 00:20:21,878
but I think he's smarter
than that, so...
364
00:20:22,054 --> 00:20:23,112
[CHUCKLES]
365
00:20:24,823 --> 00:20:26,814
I'm sorry,
366
00:20:26,992 --> 00:20:29,256
but last night, your partner told me
367
00:20:29,428 --> 00:20:33,831
that you thought he'd raided
one of his dad's charities.
368
00:20:34,633 --> 00:20:37,659
So I was just pondering
which of those stories was true.
369
00:20:38,337 --> 00:20:42,296
If indeed either one is.
370
00:20:44,076 --> 00:20:45,441
I wonder
371
00:20:46,044 --> 00:20:48,035
if I were to hold you down
and threaten
372
00:20:48,213 --> 00:20:51,979
to put one of your eyes out
with my thumb,
373
00:20:52,150 --> 00:20:54,812
would you tell me
where you're hiding him?
374
00:20:55,621 --> 00:20:57,521
I've a mind to do it.
375
00:20:58,023 --> 00:21:00,116
Actually, we're not alone.
Everyone is here.
376
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,461
Not everyone in the general sense,
Everyone the proper noun.
377
00:21:04,630 --> 00:21:06,860
The cyber-activists.
378
00:21:08,033 --> 00:21:10,661
I opened up a chat
with maybe 15 of them
379
00:21:10,836 --> 00:21:12,565
when you rang the doorbell.
380
00:21:12,738 --> 00:21:15,138
I thought it might come in handy.
381
00:21:27,052 --> 00:21:30,385
I look forward to dealing with you
and the Holmes boys later.
382
00:21:30,856 --> 00:21:34,019
I look forward to seeing you
on trial for murder.
383
00:21:46,972 --> 00:21:48,906
Watson.
384
00:21:49,241 --> 00:21:52,506
I'm fine. I'm fine.
I told you that when I called. It's okay.
385
00:21:52,678 --> 00:21:55,112
It is, in point of fact,
the very opposite of okay.
386
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,577
Sherrington knows we're onto him.
387
00:21:56,748 --> 00:21:58,511
- It's gonna complicate things.
- Yes, I know.
388
00:21:58,684 --> 00:22:01,517
Good thing I figured out another
piece of the puzzle before he got here.
389
00:22:01,687 --> 00:22:03,279
The communication
between him and Afkhami?
390
00:22:03,455 --> 00:22:04,979
You said there were
20 different calls.
391
00:22:05,157 --> 00:22:07,284
You found a corresponding
ripple effect for all of them
392
00:22:07,459 --> 00:22:08,756
except for the 17th one,
393
00:22:08,927 --> 00:22:11,293
a call that was placed from the mole
to Afkhami in March.
394
00:22:11,463 --> 00:22:14,455
You gonna tell me your breakthrough,
or continue to remind me of my own?
395
00:22:14,633 --> 00:22:16,225
Maybe if you hadn't cut me off
last night,
396
00:22:16,401 --> 00:22:19,268
we could've had this breakthrough
together, not to mention a lot sooner.
397
00:22:19,438 --> 00:22:22,236
Listen, I think I understand
the significance of the 17th call.
398
00:22:22,407 --> 00:22:24,398
There were repercussions
in the days that followed.
399
00:22:24,576 --> 00:22:26,942
They just weren't global.
They were local.
400
00:22:27,813 --> 00:22:30,111
WATSON: Nadir Khadem was found
bound and beaten to death
401
00:22:30,282 --> 00:22:32,250
in a vacant apartment in Bed-Stuy
on March 7th,
402
00:22:32,417 --> 00:22:34,510
just two days after call number 17.
403
00:22:34,686 --> 00:22:37,678
- He was Iranian.
- Yes. Same as Julian Afkhami.
404
00:22:37,856 --> 00:22:39,153
Detectives who were investigating
405
00:22:39,324 --> 00:22:40,985
thought he was killed
over gambling debts.
406
00:22:41,159 --> 00:22:42,956
But a blog
written by a Persian émigré
407
00:22:43,128 --> 00:22:46,655
maintained that his death
was a political assassination.
408
00:22:46,832 --> 00:22:50,427
Says he was active in trying to provide
unfettered access to the Internet
409
00:22:50,602 --> 00:22:51,626
for Iranian citizens.
410
00:22:51,803 --> 00:22:53,430
Would've made him a target
of the regime.
411
00:22:53,605 --> 00:22:55,664
You think Sherrington helped Afkhami
locate Khadem
412
00:22:55,841 --> 00:22:56,967
for the Iranian government.
413
00:22:57,142 --> 00:22:58,939
Then Afkhami passed
that information off
414
00:22:59,111 --> 00:23:01,079
to the person, or people,
who killed him.
415
00:23:01,646 --> 00:23:03,307
Hmm.
416
00:23:03,482 --> 00:23:06,679
You get that this is a good thing, right?
The crime took place in New York.
417
00:23:06,852 --> 00:23:08,376
Everything else
was outside the country.
418
00:23:08,553 --> 00:23:10,714
There's evidence we can look at,
people we can talk to...
419
00:23:10,889 --> 00:23:14,120
I'm sorry. I'm still distracted by the visit
you were paid by Mr. Sherrington.
420
00:23:14,292 --> 00:23:17,284
- I handled it.
- You shouldn't have had to handle it.
421
00:23:17,763 --> 00:23:20,960
Just as you shouldn't have had to fear
for your life several days ago.
422
00:23:21,133 --> 00:23:23,829
If we hadn't been pulled into the vortex
that is my brother's life.
423
00:23:24,503 --> 00:23:26,368
He didn't mean
for any of this to happen.
424
00:23:26,538 --> 00:23:29,302
Cancer cells don't mean to suffocate
healthy ones. They just do.
425
00:23:29,474 --> 00:23:30,600
So he's a cancer now?
426
00:23:30,776 --> 00:23:34,177
You object to that comparison
because he's a leukemia survivor,
427
00:23:34,346 --> 00:23:37,338
but given Mycroft's ability
to toxify people, places and things,
428
00:23:37,516 --> 00:23:40,007
I submit his disease's remission
was less miracle
429
00:23:40,185 --> 00:23:41,618
and more professional courtesy.
430
00:23:42,454 --> 00:23:45,321
Everything that happened with Ml6,
me being taken, Mycroft being framed,
431
00:23:45,490 --> 00:23:47,720
you keep insisting that it's all his fault,
but it's not.
432
00:23:47,893 --> 00:23:49,155
You played a big part in it too.
433
00:23:49,327 --> 00:23:50,851
You sure Sherrington
didn't strike you?
434
00:23:51,029 --> 00:23:53,190
- Perhaps about that head?
- Sudomo Han.
435
00:23:54,166 --> 00:23:57,158
He hired you once, back in London.
436
00:23:57,335 --> 00:23:59,735
But you didn't know
what he really was.
437
00:24:08,847 --> 00:24:10,542
Sherlock.
438
00:24:11,850 --> 00:24:13,010
Something happened?
439
00:24:14,619 --> 00:24:18,851
Your old friend, the, uh, handler,
440
00:24:19,658 --> 00:24:20,682
paid Watson a visit.
441
00:24:20,992 --> 00:24:22,857
- Is she...?
- She's unharmed.
442
00:24:23,895 --> 00:24:26,295
But he knows that we know.
443
00:24:27,432 --> 00:24:30,094
There will undoubtedly
be consequences.
444
00:24:33,705 --> 00:24:35,502
That's not why you're here.
445
00:24:37,876 --> 00:24:40,538
So I know the truth about you.
446
00:24:41,546 --> 00:24:43,605
Ml6.
447
00:24:44,950 --> 00:24:47,009
You'd got out,
448
00:24:48,153 --> 00:24:50,917
and they pulled you back in
because of me.
449
00:24:52,591 --> 00:24:54,149
Joan.
450
00:24:54,326 --> 00:24:57,818
Yeah. I know you didn't tell her.
451
00:24:59,931 --> 00:25:01,523
You're angry.
452
00:25:02,968 --> 00:25:05,334
I'm just confused.
453
00:25:09,574 --> 00:25:11,337
You owed me
454
00:25:13,011 --> 00:25:14,774
nothing.
455
00:25:19,217 --> 00:25:21,583
You're my brother.
456
00:25:31,096 --> 00:25:33,963
The connection between
my drug use
457
00:25:35,233 --> 00:25:37,064
and the mistakes I made
regarding Sudomo Han
458
00:25:37,235 --> 00:25:39,601
could not be more obvious.
459
00:25:41,273 --> 00:25:43,366
And the program
to which I owe my sobriety
460
00:25:43,542 --> 00:25:46,136
dictates that I make an amends.
461
00:25:49,381 --> 00:25:51,872
And at the appropriate juncture,
462
00:25:53,018 --> 00:25:54,952
I shall.
463
00:25:56,321 --> 00:25:58,482
In the meantime,
464
00:25:59,824 --> 00:26:02,816
you should know
that I'm gonna fix this.
465
00:26:05,630 --> 00:26:08,098
Every last bit of it.
466
00:26:18,743 --> 00:26:20,574
Why did you want me to come
to the apartment
467
00:26:20,745 --> 00:26:23,441
that Nadir Khadem was killed in?
468
00:26:24,683 --> 00:26:26,947
Didn't they clean this place
months ago?
469
00:26:28,887 --> 00:26:32,379
You re-created the blood spatter
with paint.
470
00:26:33,024 --> 00:26:35,891
Why? They have crime-scene photos
for that, you know.
471
00:26:36,061 --> 00:26:39,258
Yeah. I've been studying them
quite intently.
472
00:26:40,065 --> 00:26:41,794
Something bothers me
about the photographs,
473
00:26:41,967 --> 00:26:44,731
but the source of the disconnect
eluded me.
474
00:26:44,903 --> 00:26:48,395
So I felt the need to immerse myself
in the crime scene.
475
00:26:48,573 --> 00:26:51,007
Well, you definitely did that.
476
00:26:51,209 --> 00:26:52,540
Did it work?
477
00:26:53,078 --> 00:26:54,739
Perhaps.
478
00:26:55,046 --> 00:26:56,843
At least partially.
479
00:26:57,515 --> 00:26:59,506
I now believe the official theory
480
00:26:59,684 --> 00:27:01,675
accrued to the murder
of Nadir Khadem
481
00:27:01,853 --> 00:27:04,321
is indeed a canard.
482
00:27:05,357 --> 00:27:06,483
Observe.
483
00:27:06,658 --> 00:27:11,493
If the attacker
had struck him repeatedly with a bat,
484
00:27:12,430 --> 00:27:16,924
blood would have flown off the weapon
as he drew it back for blow after blow.
485
00:27:17,102 --> 00:27:18,592
Where would it have landed?
486
00:27:18,770 --> 00:27:21,796
Hmm. The ceiling.
The ceiling is clean.
487
00:27:21,973 --> 00:27:23,338
So, what do you think happened?
488
00:27:23,508 --> 00:27:27,171
I think it's unlikely that the murder
was politically motivated.
489
00:27:27,345 --> 00:27:29,779
It's too sloppy
to be an assassination.
490
00:27:29,948 --> 00:27:33,349
So that leaves me
in search of a third option.
491
00:27:36,621 --> 00:27:40,421
But it is beautiful, isn't it?
492
00:27:41,126 --> 00:27:42,593
I don't know. It's kind of gruesome.
493
00:27:42,761 --> 00:27:44,854
Not the bloodstains.
494
00:27:45,230 --> 00:27:47,926
The work which has led us here.
495
00:27:50,268 --> 00:27:52,236
I deciphered the code
on West's arms.
496
00:27:52,404 --> 00:27:55,100
You found the murder
of Nadir Khadem,
497
00:27:55,273 --> 00:27:57,104
the elusive 17th ripple effect.
498
00:27:57,676 --> 00:27:59,109
I re-create the scene.
499
00:27:59,277 --> 00:28:02,212
And now, here we are,
500
00:28:02,514 --> 00:28:04,880
on the verge of a breakthrough.
501
00:28:10,455 --> 00:28:13,481
Our collaboration works, Watson.
502
00:28:14,292 --> 00:28:17,784
Even when things are less than ideal
between us,
503
00:28:18,029 --> 00:28:19,894
it works.
504
00:28:23,435 --> 00:28:26,302
When I look back
on the last 18 months,
505
00:28:26,571 --> 00:28:32,032
I often categorize it
as a kind of grand experiment.
506
00:28:34,045 --> 00:28:36,639
The results of which
have demonstrated to me,
507
00:28:36,815 --> 00:28:38,715
much to my surprise,
508
00:28:38,883 --> 00:28:41,477
that I am capable of change.
509
00:28:43,488 --> 00:28:46,548
So I will. Change.
510
00:28:48,593 --> 00:28:50,117
For you.
511
00:28:53,898 --> 00:28:55,991
For the sake of our partnership.
512
00:28:56,167 --> 00:28:59,193
For the sake of our work.
513
00:29:00,872 --> 00:29:02,567
Stay.
514
00:29:08,213 --> 00:29:12,582
You have this kind of pull.
515
00:29:14,319 --> 00:29:16,150
Like gravity.
516
00:29:19,124 --> 00:29:22,491
I'm so lucky that I fell into your orbit.
517
00:29:24,362 --> 00:29:26,796
But if we live together,
that's how it will always be.
518
00:29:26,965 --> 00:29:29,092
Me orbiting you.
519
00:29:29,334 --> 00:29:32,235
There'll always be the next case,
the next problem.
520
00:29:32,403 --> 00:29:34,371
And I will always get pulled along.
521
00:29:35,173 --> 00:29:39,906
It's an exciting way to live,
but there are consequences.
522
00:29:42,447 --> 00:29:45,746
We will work this out. I know we will.
523
00:29:47,552 --> 00:29:49,645
But I need to get my own place.
524
00:29:55,226 --> 00:29:56,693
Are you okay?
525
00:29:58,296 --> 00:29:59,422
Hmm.
526
00:30:01,866 --> 00:30:03,527
I now know
527
00:30:03,968 --> 00:30:06,493
how Nadir Khadem was murdered.
528
00:30:11,776 --> 00:30:14,108
MYCROFT:
Drinking on duty?
529
00:30:17,615 --> 00:30:19,344
Sir Walter wouldn't approve.
530
00:30:19,517 --> 00:30:23,783
Well, what the old man
doesn't know about.
531
00:30:26,224 --> 00:30:27,316
How did you find me?
532
00:30:27,492 --> 00:30:29,722
Best shepherd's pie in the city.
533
00:30:29,894 --> 00:30:33,295
Or so you claimed whenever
we found ourselves in New York.
534
00:30:38,703 --> 00:30:41,137
Look, for what it's worth,
535
00:30:42,207 --> 00:30:44,232
I'm sorry.
536
00:30:44,709 --> 00:30:45,733
For?
537
00:30:48,713 --> 00:30:51,147
I'm not recording you,
if that's what you're worried about.
538
00:30:53,284 --> 00:30:56,845
No. No, you wouldn't, would you?
539
00:30:57,488 --> 00:30:59,718
It's ungentlemanly.
540
00:31:00,592 --> 00:31:02,059
Just so you know,
541
00:31:02,227 --> 00:31:05,822
it was his idea
to get your brother on the West thing.
542
00:31:06,097 --> 00:31:07,689
The old man's.
543
00:31:07,866 --> 00:31:09,731
After that,
544
00:31:10,535 --> 00:31:12,002
things snowballed.
545
00:31:17,342 --> 00:31:20,402
I want to know
what it'll cost to undo this.
546
00:31:21,379 --> 00:31:24,314
You and Walter,
all the other lords and ladies think
547
00:31:24,482 --> 00:31:26,916
your titles and your money
can fix anything.
548
00:31:27,085 --> 00:31:31,784
But some things, some people,
are more complicated.
549
00:31:32,457 --> 00:31:34,755
Is that what you are?
550
00:31:35,593 --> 00:31:36,992
Complicated?
551
00:31:37,428 --> 00:31:39,623
I came up in the trenches, mate.
552
00:31:39,797 --> 00:31:42,630
I came up hard.
I'm simple, like a hammer.
553
00:31:44,936 --> 00:31:51,341
But the powers that be at the agency,
they don't favor blokes like me.
554
00:31:51,509 --> 00:31:52,874
There are ceilings, you know.
555
00:31:53,044 --> 00:31:56,309
And so you committed
multiple acts of treason.
556
00:31:56,481 --> 00:31:57,880
Makes sense to me.
557
00:32:01,519 --> 00:32:03,453
It's a Sig Sauer, isn't it?
558
00:32:03,621 --> 00:32:06,419
In your pocket.
Pointed straight at my heart.
559
00:32:06,591 --> 00:32:09,526
Give me one good reason
not to pull the trigger.
560
00:32:10,628 --> 00:32:12,459
Well, I can think of two.
561
00:32:13,331 --> 00:32:15,390
What if Le Milieu
knew the truth about you?
562
00:32:15,566 --> 00:32:19,502
About your role in the downfalls of
some of their more powerful members.
563
00:32:20,138 --> 00:32:21,628
You're threatening to burn me.
564
00:32:21,806 --> 00:32:23,637
I die, a letter gets mailed.
565
00:32:23,808 --> 00:32:25,969
Some very angry Frenchmen
come looking for you.
566
00:32:26,144 --> 00:32:28,237
Your brother and your bird
will want to help.
567
00:32:28,413 --> 00:32:30,540
But you know Le Milieu,
568
00:32:30,882 --> 00:32:33,373
how messy they can be.
569
00:32:33,818 --> 00:32:36,013
Collateral damage and suchlike.
570
00:32:39,557 --> 00:32:41,115
No, I'll tell you what we'll do.
571
00:32:41,292 --> 00:32:43,487
I'll settle up here,
572
00:32:43,828 --> 00:32:45,659
then we'll go for a walk to my car,
573
00:32:45,830 --> 00:32:49,391
and then I'll take you
somewhere nice.
574
00:32:51,002 --> 00:32:53,129
Somewhere quiet.
575
00:32:53,938 --> 00:32:57,101
Then I'll put a bullet
right behind your ear.
576
00:32:58,710 --> 00:33:01,770
I die a traitor,
and you get away with everything.
577
00:33:03,815 --> 00:33:05,214
Quite an offer.
578
00:33:05,616 --> 00:33:10,053
Well, it's the best one
you're going to get, mate.
579
00:33:18,429 --> 00:33:20,329
Mr. Afkhami. Thanks for coming in.
580
00:33:20,498 --> 00:33:24,901
This is an incredible inconvenience.
I had to close my store.
581
00:33:25,069 --> 00:33:27,037
Well, I'm sorry.
We just got a few questions.
582
00:33:27,205 --> 00:33:28,968
Right this way.
583
00:33:29,140 --> 00:33:33,406
Heh. I knew of Nadir Khadem.
584
00:33:33,578 --> 00:33:35,239
The Persian community's
a small one.
585
00:33:35,413 --> 00:33:37,745
But I didn't have a relationship
with the man.
586
00:33:37,915 --> 00:33:41,510
Then you probably know
we were investigating his murder.
587
00:33:42,220 --> 00:33:44,120
We've recently discarded the theory
588
00:33:44,288 --> 00:33:46,950
that he was killed by someone
he owed money to.
589
00:33:48,593 --> 00:33:50,322
HOLMES:
The bloodstains were quite unusual.
590
00:33:50,661 --> 00:33:53,562
I tried to reconcile them with all the
common means of killing someone,
591
00:33:53,731 --> 00:33:54,755
but I couldn't.
592
00:33:55,133 --> 00:33:56,657
Then I tried to reconcile them
593
00:33:56,834 --> 00:33:58,893
with all the uncommon means
of killing someone.
594
00:33:59,237 --> 00:34:01,705
The blood patterns are consistent
with spatter that would occur
595
00:34:01,873 --> 00:34:04,501
after a thrown object
struck the head of the victim.
596
00:34:04,675 --> 00:34:07,735
We now believe that someone
threw projectiles at Mr. Khadem
597
00:34:07,912 --> 00:34:08,936
until he died.
598
00:34:09,414 --> 00:34:11,279
He was stoned to death.
599
00:34:12,517 --> 00:34:15,179
That's strange.
600
00:34:15,353 --> 00:34:16,877
Yeah.
601
00:34:17,055 --> 00:34:19,683
It's also very, very personal.
602
00:34:19,891 --> 00:34:24,021
Whoever murdered Nadir Khadem
had a visceral hatred for him.
603
00:34:25,630 --> 00:34:28,724
Do you recognize those,
Mr. Afkhami?
604
00:34:29,233 --> 00:34:32,498
They're various e-mails
from Nadir Khadem
605
00:34:32,670 --> 00:34:36,128
to a woman named Yasmin Afkhami.
606
00:34:36,340 --> 00:34:37,364
Your wife.
607
00:34:38,042 --> 00:34:39,509
They're intimate.
608
00:34:39,677 --> 00:34:42,168
The two of them
were having an affair.
609
00:34:42,346 --> 00:34:44,974
You obviously had your suspicions.
610
00:34:45,283 --> 00:34:49,583
You asked your contact at Ml6
to apply his vast intelligence apparatus
611
00:34:49,754 --> 00:34:50,846
to that problem.
612
00:34:51,422 --> 00:34:52,889
Where did you get these?
613
00:34:53,224 --> 00:34:55,055
We've been in touch with your wife.
614
00:34:55,526 --> 00:34:57,858
Turns out
she has some residual anger
615
00:34:58,029 --> 00:35:01,226
over the fact that her husband
brutally murdered her lover.
616
00:35:01,399 --> 00:35:03,094
You had to tell her about it,
didn't you?
617
00:35:03,267 --> 00:35:06,236
Or you wouldn't have been reasserting
your dominance over her.
618
00:35:06,404 --> 00:35:09,771
You tried to burn the clothes
you were wearing when you did it,
619
00:35:09,941 --> 00:35:15,004
but your wife pulled your undershirt
out of the fire.
620
00:35:15,179 --> 00:35:17,579
It has Nadir Khadem's blood on it.
621
00:35:21,219 --> 00:35:22,243
I want a lawyer.
622
00:35:22,420 --> 00:35:25,321
I'm gonna give you a little preview
of what he's gonna tell you.
623
00:35:25,490 --> 00:35:29,824
Tell us about your work as a spy
and your mole in Ml6,
624
00:35:30,194 --> 00:35:34,028
or you'll never take a breath
of free air again.
625
00:35:39,437 --> 00:35:41,667
GREGSON:
He gave us everything you described.
626
00:35:41,839 --> 00:35:44,103
How he recruited Sherrington,
how he paid him,
627
00:35:44,275 --> 00:35:46,243
and what they talked about.
628
00:35:46,744 --> 00:35:48,575
Your brother should be in the clear.
629
00:35:48,746 --> 00:35:49,770
Thank you.
630
00:35:50,481 --> 00:35:52,711
A body just landed in the morgue.
631
00:35:52,884 --> 00:35:54,374
A British national.
632
00:35:54,552 --> 00:35:56,577
We need to get down there.
633
00:36:03,427 --> 00:36:04,826
WATSON:
Sherrington.
634
00:36:04,996 --> 00:36:06,224
How did this happen?
635
00:36:06,497 --> 00:36:09,159
We don't know.
A janitor found the body.
636
00:36:09,333 --> 00:36:11,358
Now, there's no money left
in his wallet,
637
00:36:11,536 --> 00:36:13,697
but this reads too clean
to be a robbery gone wrong.
638
00:36:13,871 --> 00:36:15,031
Somebody executed him.
639
00:36:15,406 --> 00:36:17,340
Given everything you two
have just told me,
640
00:36:17,508 --> 00:36:19,567
I have a pretty good idea
who had a motive.
641
00:36:19,744 --> 00:36:22,144
Mycroft is not a murderer.
642
00:36:22,813 --> 00:36:25,941
Put out a new Finest Message
for Mycroft Holmes.
643
00:36:45,903 --> 00:36:48,167
Tell me you did not murder that man.
644
00:36:48,606 --> 00:36:51,302
I did not murder that man.
645
00:36:52,009 --> 00:36:53,306
But I had a hand.
646
00:36:53,477 --> 00:36:55,035
Explain.
647
00:36:55,246 --> 00:36:57,077
MYCROFT:
I had a chat with him yesterday.
648
00:36:57,515 --> 00:36:59,949
He made it very clear
that if you managed to undo him,
649
00:37:00,117 --> 00:37:01,914
there would be consequences.
650
00:37:03,154 --> 00:37:04,246
He threatened us.
651
00:37:10,061 --> 00:37:11,653
He said there was a letter,
652
00:37:11,829 --> 00:37:15,663
that in the event of his death
or arrest,
653
00:37:15,833 --> 00:37:21,066
it would be sent to certain parties
within Le Milieu.
654
00:37:22,173 --> 00:37:26,337
He planned to burn me,
tell them I was British Intelligence.
655
00:37:27,211 --> 00:37:31,443
He also made it very clear that you two
would be caught in the cross fire.
656
00:37:31,616 --> 00:37:33,345
We can take care of ourselves.
You know that.
657
00:37:33,651 --> 00:37:36,415
You don't know these men,
Sherlock.
658
00:37:37,021 --> 00:37:38,318
Not like I do.
659
00:37:38,889 --> 00:37:41,449
So if you didn't kill Sherrington,
who did?
660
00:37:43,861 --> 00:37:47,695
Bit of luck, you introducing me to your
friends at the NSA the other week.
661
00:37:48,299 --> 00:37:49,493
Agent McNally.
662
00:37:49,667 --> 00:37:52,397
I told you
I was a clearinghouse for Ml6.
663
00:37:52,570 --> 00:37:53,867
I stored facts.
664
00:37:54,038 --> 00:37:57,337
Facts which were as valuable
to the National Security Agency
665
00:37:57,508 --> 00:37:58,839
as they were to Ml6.
666
00:37:59,176 --> 00:38:01,804
After my talk with Sherrington,
I went to them.
667
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:03,811
I made a deal.
668
00:38:04,315 --> 00:38:06,681
Wait a second.
Are you saying that they killed him?
669
00:38:06,851 --> 00:38:09,547
More like played him
at his own game.
670
00:38:09,954 --> 00:38:11,854
They had their own contacts
at Le Milieu,
671
00:38:12,023 --> 00:38:13,320
which I suspected all along.
672
00:38:13,491 --> 00:38:17,052
They made certain parties
in that organization
673
00:38:17,228 --> 00:38:19,025
aware of Ml6's infiltration.
674
00:38:19,196 --> 00:38:24,600
And in turn, Le Milieu
made an example of Sherrington.
675
00:38:24,769 --> 00:38:25,861
You're not making any sense.
676
00:38:26,037 --> 00:38:27,732
If they know about him,
they know about you.
677
00:38:27,905 --> 00:38:30,339
They'll come after you
just like he wanted them to.
678
00:38:31,642 --> 00:38:35,009
Well, as it turns out, Joan,
I'm already dead.
679
00:38:36,147 --> 00:38:37,944
What are you talking about?
680
00:38:38,115 --> 00:38:42,074
He means the NSA has agreed
to fake his demise.
681
00:38:44,021 --> 00:38:46,581
MYCROFT:
There was an accident
682
00:38:46,757 --> 00:38:49,851
at Diogenes a little while ago.
683
00:38:50,995 --> 00:38:53,691
A fire broke out in the kitchen.
684
00:38:54,265 --> 00:38:57,962
When the smoke clears,
the body of a man will be found.
685
00:38:58,269 --> 00:39:00,669
A man about my size.
686
00:39:01,272 --> 00:39:04,764
A man in possession
of my personal effects.
687
00:39:07,478 --> 00:39:10,709
The blaze, of course, will disguise
the fact that he's a cadaver.
688
00:39:11,882 --> 00:39:14,510
But if you're supposed to be dead...
689
00:39:14,685 --> 00:39:17,711
HOLMES: He can't stay in New York.
Nor can he go to London or Rome.
690
00:39:18,155 --> 00:39:21,283
Or anywhere else
he's had dealings with Le Milieu.
691
00:39:21,459 --> 00:39:23,654
He needs to disappear.
692
00:39:23,828 --> 00:39:25,261
Probably forever.
693
00:39:26,063 --> 00:39:28,554
I'm so sorry, Joan.
694
00:39:29,166 --> 00:39:33,466
Sherlock and I were working on this.
You knew that.
695
00:39:33,938 --> 00:39:36,771
I did what I had to do.
696
00:39:48,652 --> 00:39:51,120
Lazy. Stupid.
697
00:39:51,288 --> 00:39:54,280
- Sherlock.
- Watson's right. We could fix this.
698
00:39:54,458 --> 00:39:57,291
But that would require hard work.
Effort.
699
00:39:58,763 --> 00:40:01,095
I can't believe
I came to you last night
700
00:40:01,799 --> 00:40:04,324
asking your forgiveness.
701
00:40:04,902 --> 00:40:08,394
You are the same
self-absorbed sloth...
702
00:40:13,043 --> 00:40:15,773
I love you, brother.
703
00:40:21,085 --> 00:40:23,246
This last year,
704
00:40:25,322 --> 00:40:27,916
it's been a gift.
705
00:40:40,971 --> 00:40:43,496
WATSON:
Is that a month-to-month lease, then?
706
00:40:44,809 --> 00:40:46,299
Yes, that's right.
707
00:40:46,477 --> 00:40:49,412
I would like to see the apartment
as soon as possible.
708
00:40:50,648 --> 00:40:52,115
Yes, one person.
709
00:40:52,283 --> 00:40:54,046
No pets.
710
00:41:26,750 --> 00:41:27,944
Mr. Holmes.
711
00:41:30,721 --> 00:41:33,281
I was wondering
if we might talk for a moment.
712
00:41:39,396 --> 00:41:42,559
I was sorry to hear
about your brother.
713
00:41:43,801 --> 00:41:47,635
I assume by now you've been apprised
of the arrest of Julian Afkhami.
714
00:41:47,805 --> 00:41:50,365
He was conspiring with Sherrington,
not Mycroft.
715
00:41:50,541 --> 00:41:53,999
Just as I know that Mr. Sherrington
was subsequently murdered.
716
00:41:54,178 --> 00:41:56,908
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
717
00:41:57,081 --> 00:42:01,541
I only wish he'd been slotted
before he got to your brother.
718
00:42:02,686 --> 00:42:06,952
Several days ago, Mr. Sherrington
made me an offer of employment.
719
00:42:07,691 --> 00:42:09,852
He thought I could be
of great assistance to Ml6.
720
00:42:10,027 --> 00:42:11,494
I'm just curious,
721
00:42:11,662 --> 00:42:15,325
was this the attempt of a criminal
to keep his enemy close,
722
00:42:15,733 --> 00:42:17,462
or was he acting on orders?
723
00:42:18,235 --> 00:42:22,365
It's hard to know now what Sherrington
thought he'd gain from it.
724
00:42:22,706 --> 00:42:27,006
But the offer came from me.
725
00:42:28,245 --> 00:42:32,944
Well, in that case,
I'd very much like to take you up on it.
