Sherlock: The Lying Detective

[velja]

Here are some very random facs and thoughts and reactions that I had after watching the latest Sherlock Episode, The Lying Detective:



Okay, I'm just gonna list them how they come to me, in no particular order:

• I can't stand the sight of Lady Smallwood! I disliked her from the very first moment we met her in Season 3. Then, in last week's episode, I was disappointed that she wasn't the bad guy after all (like we were to believe for a short time). And now... here? Uargh!!! I hated her! I hated that she threw herself at Mycroft. Pathetic, how she tried to talk him into "making it up to her" (whatever that may mean - let's hope we'll never have to find out). I really really hope that nothing will come of it. I was actually shouting at my laptop: "No! Mycroft, don't! Don't you dare pick up her stupid card with her stupid private number. Don't even think about considering it!" Well, let's hope Mycroft threw that card away. He can do so much better. If he really has to get himself a goldfish, why not take Greg?

• "I'm gonna make a deduction. Happy Birthday!" Loved it! Abso-bloody-lutely loved it. I did not see that coming. Best thing of the entire episode. Well, that and the hug. Loved the hug, too (I'm talking about Sherlock hugging John at the end of course, not the other hug).

• I knew that there was something fishy about the therapist. She just seemed... off. But I didn't recognize her.

• Mrs Hudson :-))))) Loved her. Especially when she opened the boot of her car. And when she threw everyone out of the apartment - even Mycroft.

• At the first sight of Mary, I was like "Oh, please! No! I don't want that!". But, I have to admit that I like the fact that Sherlock was talking to her, too, at the end. Speaks for him.

• And I liked that Mary said on the CD: "The man we both love", or something like that. How true.

• Oh, and... Sherlock's face when he's on the ground in the morgue, bloody and beaten... My heart cried out. He looked sooo emotionally wrecked... I was so... I cried a lot during this episode, but that moment was the worst I think.

• And, not that I really care that much, but... who the hell was really watching little Rosie during the entire episode? Not Mrs Hudson, not Molly, not Imaginary!Mary... who?

• And has anyone else noticed the parallels that the missing sibling is apparently a sister and not a brother? Just like Sherlock in the first episode was wrong about John's sibling... like that.

• But I thought Sherringford was in some kind of institution or something? How did she get out? What has Moriarty got to do with it? Cause the "Miss me" on the paper that Sherlock found in the end, it's gotta mean it's Moriarty, or not? I'm confused. If he got her out before he killed himself, that would be stupid because Mycroft would know. And if not... then why the "Miss me" reference?

Right now I can't think of more to say. First I need to read what others thought.

Oh, but one more thing. I just watched the trailer for next week's episode and... well, I always thought my English wasn't so bad but I can make no sense out of the following sentence: "Every choice you've ever made, every path you've ever taken, the man you are today, is your memory of Euros." That doesn't make any sense to me. Is your memory? The grammar's all wrong. Or not?
