- Dr. Joan Watson: And as someone recently said, "If you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, is the truth."
- Sherlock Holmes: Sounds like a windbag.
- Sherlock Holmes: When you've eliminated then impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, is the truth.
- Captain Thomas Gregson: So, some priceless artifacts just came into your possession, and the fewer questions I have about said artifacts, the better?
- Sherlock Holmes: Correct.
- Captain Thomas Gregson: And this just *happened** to be on the day that you were looking into "Le Chevalier," and this *happens* to be the stuff that he stole.
- Sherlock Holmes: And the culture will be grateful for their return.
- Captain Thomas Gregson: Mmm-hmm.
- Micah Erlich: If you know our work, you know that we introduced a new flagship product in 2009, the Leviathan.
- Sherlock Holmes: Yes. The safe that you marketed as "impregnable." Did you people learn nothing from the Titanic?
- [coming downstairs for her morning jog, Watson meets two half-dressed identical twin sisters, before Sherlock emerges, pulling on his shirt]
- Sherlock Holmes: If you must know, Watson, the Lynch Sisters and I enjoy a mutually beneficiary relationship.
- Dr. Joan Watson: If I must know? I didn't ask.
- Sherlock Holmes: I need to study the difference between two specimens born into the world with exactly the same genetic material. In the Lynches' case, there are seven major ones. And they get...
- Dr. Joan Watson: I... didn't... ask!
- Sherlock Holmes: I know my audience; I simply told them what they wanted to hear. They're nice people, your family, but they are, at their core, conventional. You make an effort to appear conventional, but I know, Watson, that you share my love of all that is bizarre and outside the humdrum routine of ordinary life. You family will never understand this, so I gave them some words that they *would* understand.
- [first lines]
- Dr. Joan Watson: [coming downstairs] Hey, are you going to get the-?
- [sees Gwen in the living room, wearing Sherlock's t-shirt and little else]
- Gwen Lynch: Hey! Sherlock's still asleep, I wasn't sure if I should get the door. I'm Gwen. You're the companion, right?
- Dr. Joan Watson: ...Yes.
- Gwen Lynch: [laughs] I guess I should get dressed.
- [Watson turns off the TV, then goes to the foyer to open the door]
- Olivia Lynch: Sorry, I wasn't sure if you wanted me to get the-! Oh, you're not Sherlock.
- [Watson does a double take]
- Olivia Lynch: You're the companion, right?
- Dr. Joan Watson: ...Yes.
- Olivia Lynch: I'm Olivia, it's nice to meet you.
- Dr. Joan Watson: I think I just met your sister.
- Olivia Lynch: Did she mention what time our car service is getting here?
- Dr. Joan Watson: No.
- [the doorbell keeps ringing]
- Olivia Lynch: You should get the door. There's crepes downstairs if you want.
- Dr. Joan Watson: Did you give the people at Casterly Rock my cell phone number as your contact info?
- Sherlock Holmes: Well, I didn't want them to call *me*.
- Mary Watson: When you came to dinner the other night, when the two of you talked about Sherlock's work, I saw something in you. There was a spark. A sense of excitement. I haven't seen that in you in a long time. You like what he does.
- Dr. Joan Watson: Yes, ok, I enjoy it, but I'm not a detective, Mom. And I'm almost done working with Sherlock, and then it's on to another client.
- Mary Watson: Will the next client make you happy? People find their paths in the strangest of ways.
- Sherlock Holmes: Did you know that one of the side effects of a bone marrow transplant is that your body begins to manufacture cells that bear the DNA of your donor? Right. And bone marrow manufactures blood. So you know that every recipient of a transplant walks around with the DNA of their donor coursing through their veins. But the DNA in your skin, your hair, your saliva, that's all your own. The blood that we found at Justin Guthrie's apartment, it bears the DNA of Audrey Higuerra, but it came from your body. You knew that you could give us a saliva sample, because the DNA wouldn't match the blood that we found at the crime scene.
