• Ehtar : [suddenly appears above them gun in hand]  HOLMES!

  Elizabeth Hardy : [screams]  NO

  [jumps in front of Holmes as Ehtar fires] 

  Ehtar : [snarls as she fatally takes the bullet]  DAMN!

  John Watson : [bewildered]  Where you going? Holmes You'll Be Killed

  Sherlock Holmes : [growling as he snatches up a sword]  I'm going to get him

  [shouts] 

  Sherlock Holmes : Ehtar! You're nothing but a damn fraud!

  Ehtar : [smugly]  And you, Holmes, are letting your emotions get the better of you again!

  [fires again but Sherlock dodges the shot] 

• [final lines: a man gets out of a horse-drawn sledge and goes into a hotel] 

  Hotel Receptionist : Can I help you?

  Ehtar : [only now do we see that it is Ehtar]  I'd like a room, please.

  Hotel Receptionist : Please, sign here.

  [Ehtar signs "Moriarty" before looking her in the eye and raising an eyebrow] 

• [Holmes has climbed onto the roof in search of a missing trophy] 

  Master Snelgrove : This is truly despicable. Imagine, a cultured student acting like a chimpanzee!

  Mrs. Dribb : He'll probably outgrow it. Oh Mr Snelgrove, he's just having a bit of fun. I'm sure you still remember what fun was?

  Master Snelgrove : Fun! Besides, this Holmes boy is too precocious, too egotistical, for his own good. Hell never find that trophy!

  Rathe : I'll wager a guinea he does!

  Master Snelgrove : Done!

• Rathe : Holmes, remember what I always taught you: control your emotions or they will be your downfall.

• Ehtar : You cannot best me, Holmes. Throw down your sword.

  Sherlock Holmes : Never. I would rather die a gruesome and horrible death.

  Ehtar : Very well, then I will oblige.

  Ehtar : [continues duelling]  Come Holmes Is This The Best You Can Do?

  [gloating] 

  Ehtar : You Fight Like A Malnourished Child I've Already Won The Battle

  Sherlock Holmes : You've Lost *Every* Battle Ehtar... This Will Be No Exception! All Your Dreams Have Been *Shattered* Your Temple... The Rame Tep...

  [Ehtar gets similar cheek slash to Holmes] 

  Sherlock Holmes : Everything Has Been Destroyed Forever

  Ehtar : [Ehtar seeing he's now bleeding loses his composure]  AH

  [growling lashes out] 

• Mrs. Dribb : [about Elizabeth]  What will we do with her?

  Ehtar : We'll take her with us. We still need the fifth princess.

• Ehtar : [gloating as they duel on the frozen Thames]  Yes Holmes... Let's Carry A While Longer... As Your Elizabeth's Precious Life Blood Flows From Her Body

  [as he takes a swing Holmes dodges and moves off the slab of ice... causing it to give way beneath Ehtar] 

  Ehtar : AAAAHHH

  [stunned Ehtar reaches out to a sneering Holmes before the ice closes above his head] 

• Rathe : [after besting Holmes in a classroom fencing match]  Now, gentlemen, Mr. Holmes lost because of one important factor: his emotions took over. He ignored discipline. Never replace discipline with emotion.
