Trivia
The title is a play on "The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter", the short story that introduced Sherlock's brother Mycroft. Incidentally, Sherlock (2010) also changed the title from "Greek" to "geek"; however, it was mentioned in passing rather than the title of the episode.

Goofs
The FBI believes that Lily was kidnapped between the library and her apartment, that they say is a few blocks away, at 108th St and Amsterdam (Upper West Side); which is indeed close to the library at Columbia University where she is Harlan's student. Watson is to canvass that area, but she basically finds a witness on E 7th St, between 1st and 2nd Ave, 9 miles away in the East Village, the complete opposite area of Manhattan.

Quotes
Sherlock Holmes: [to his friend, Harlan, who deals with stress by solving problems in the nude] You're upset. Look, look, if, if, if you need to disrobe, feel free. You're in a safe place. Just, just mind the furniture.

Losing interest fast.

I suspect in desperation, every episode the writers are making social agendas and special interest groups the driving force for the plot. Mystery and suspense are secondary.

This episode, it's global warming, rising sea level hysteria.

It's the end of the season, and they haven't built any interest for next season. I'm sure they will rush it in the last episode.

...which will be the last episode for me. This series is so awfully boring, now!
