00:04Hey, Shardock! Shardock, step inside!
00:07Hey, where are you taken?
00:08None of your business!
00:09Yes, it is what?
00:09It's the murder of Professor Thompson!
00:12Now, out of my way!
00:34You've got the wrong man.
00:36Let's not play games, Mr. Holmes. Professor Thompson's dead.
00:39Your knife is found in his back, the blood in your shirt, and the blood in your face.
00:43I was with Shardock.
00:44The princess?
00:44Yes. We...
00:48You what?
00:52I don't remember.
00:55I know all about your mother, Mr. Holmes.
00:57Such afflictions run in the family, you're obviously deranged.
01:01You planted the bomb so you could turn yourself into a hero by saving everyone.
01:05The only problem is, the Professor saw you.
01:07That's what I reckon.
01:10Which would give you the motive to kill him.
01:12It's a simple enough conclusion, but unfortunately incorrect.
01:16Talk to the princess.
01:17She'll corroborate my story.
01:27How you come, Mr. Holmes?
01:37Nurse Strip.
01:40How about dinner first?
02:03Good breakfast, Mycroft.
02:05Perhaps you go for kippers.
02:06Chef here does the most remarkable kitchen.
02:08Thanks.
02:09You have already eaten.
02:09But I insist, it's far too good to pass on.
02:12Said.
02:14Said.
02:17In that case...
02:20So...
02:20How can I help you?
02:22My brother is not responsible for the crime, sir.
02:25He is innocent.
02:26Tedious.
02:27Used to be such good fun.
02:29Can we please talk about anything else other than this?
02:32Besides, what's innocent God to do with it?
02:33I can hardly interfere with police procedure now, can I?
02:35Well, your name does carry a certain amount of weight, sir.
02:37Why not should Mr. Holmes persist you?
02:41Precisely.
02:42Not are you.
02:43So try to remember your place.
02:44You've no idea what's at stake here.
02:46He is my brother.
02:47Quick government, you're not listening.
02:49Stay out of it.
02:50Leave it with me.
02:51Keeping your brother locked up suits my purposes.
02:56Mr. Holmes has lost his appetite.
02:58Very good, sir.
03:03Thank you for your time, sir.
03:18Good morning, sir.
03:20Hmm.
03:21You think you're getting it back, don't you?
03:23Scholarship.
03:24That would seem appropriate.
03:25The scrolls were phoned and...
03:27Well, I was exonerated.
03:28All part of your young friend's little show.
03:31But don't put a hand on me, Moriarty.
03:34Sorry, sir.
03:35Let's face it, you've always struggled to fit in here, haven't you?
03:39Perhaps you should find a calling better suited to your standing.
03:43I believe I belong here, sir.
03:44I believe you'd do yourself a service if you pack your bags and leave.
03:47Your time at Oxford is done, sir.
03:50Goodbye.
03:51I'll do anything.
03:52Damn it, man!
03:53You're not happy!
03:58I'll step out of my way.
04:02I want you out of your room at once.
04:14What are you all looking at?
04:18What?
04:18You frickin' sheep.
04:25James!
04:26What?!
04:28That was very unkind.
04:34This world is unkind.
04:38Where will you go now?
04:39I don't know.
04:40Will you go see Sherlock?
04:41I don't know.
04:42Well, I need to know what he's told the police.
04:44Well, I can't help you.
05:31You're a visitor.
05:36Oh, Sherlock.
05:43Can you get me out of here?
05:46Won't be easy. Not this time.
05:49This is a murder charge.
05:51You know, you don't have to leave me here just to make a point.
05:53I'm not making a point.
05:56It seems as though there are...
05:58Keeping your brother locked up suits my purposes.
06:01...other forces at work.
06:03What forces?
06:04I'm not sure yet. You'll have to bear with me.
06:07My wife, Father, in Vienna, perhaps he can pull some strings.
06:11Does Mother know?
06:13Not yet.
06:15Don't tell her, please.
06:16Of course I won't, Sherlock, but...
06:18...a case like this...
06:21...will hit the newspapers.
06:23The police need to talk to Shuan.
06:25The princess?
06:26I was with her.
06:27It's the last thing I remember.
06:33I'll see what I can do.
06:38Oxford has become a theater of death.
06:40Well, that is admittedly unfortunate.
06:43I'm happy to be reporting that the situation is now in hand.
06:46We have the suspect in custody.
06:47The scout?
06:50Apparently he's claiming he was with you last night.
06:52I'm afraid that is not true.
06:54He's either mistaken or deluded.
06:56Well, now that's settled.
06:57Perhaps you'd be so kind as to send your father a wire and reassure him all as well.
07:01A man lies dead and your concern is for your trade with my father.
07:05Well, I don't like to wallow in the past, princess.
07:08Always look ahead to the next challenge.
07:14I'm sorry.
07:16I pray your assurances are not just dust and shadows.
07:20More tea?
07:27Forgive me.
07:28Hmm.
07:29Let me fetch someone.
07:39You do fit me so kind.
07:41Of course, sir.
07:44My apologies.
07:46Think nothing of it.
07:49Well, I've taken up enough of your time.
07:51Princess.
07:56Take a telegram.
07:58Right away, sir.
07:59To Sir Sidney Blewett, minister for war.
08:02Dear Sidney, storm clouds threaten.
08:06I fear our work here is no longer covert.
08:13Laundry in the car.
08:14Move.
08:15Laundry in the car.
08:16Pick up a claim.
08:17Come on.
08:18Move.
08:19Laundry in the car.
08:21Move.
08:22Come on.
08:23Laundry in the car.
08:25Pick up a claim.
08:26Come on.
08:27Put this man, may please, prisoner.
08:28Move along.
08:29Off you go.
08:30Move.
08:31Thanks.
08:36Head down.
08:37Straddle.
08:39What exactly are we doing?
08:41I am rescuing you.
08:42So if we can save the fawn in gratitude,
08:44it'll only embarrass me.
08:53Hold up, ladies.
09:10There we go.
09:15Clarence top zero.
09:17Come on.
09:17Wrap yourself.
09:19You're going down the chute.
09:24Keep covered.
09:25I'll see you in a way.
09:47Excuse me, young lady.
09:51I said, excuse me, young lady.
10:23I'll see you in a way.
10:25I'll see you in a way.
10:26I'll see you in a way.
10:28I'll see you in a way.
10:29I'll see you in a way.
10:31I'll see you in a way.
10:34I'll see you in a way.
10:41I'll see you in a way.
10:51Don't give them all, and there we go.
10:53Don't give them all, and the devil's death.
10:58Lord.
11:03Escaped?
11:03What do you mean, escaped?
11:05My understanding was that nobody could escape from Oxford Jail.
11:08Seems like you had an accomplice, dressed as a washerwoman.
11:11When? When did this happen?
11:13An hour ago. Our officers are searching the city.
11:17Constable, I do not want some trigger-happy marksman
11:20and gunning him down in the bloody street.
11:22Pardon me, gentlemen.
11:23Detective Fidget, Scotland Yard.
11:25Constable Lestrade?
11:27Is this the crime scene?
11:28It is, sir.
11:29Sounds like this case has turned into something of a shambles, Constable.
11:32With all due respect, sir, a lapse in prison security
11:34can hardly be considered my responsibility.
11:37And who might you be, sir?
11:40I'm Sherlock Holmes' brother, Mycroft Holmes,
11:43from the Foreign Office.
11:44Ah, the Foreign Office and his brother.
11:47One tiny package.
11:50I'm prepared to help you with your search on one condition.
11:55When he is brought in, no harm will come to him.
11:59My brother is innocent, Detective.
12:02Well, if he's innocent, Mr. Holmes, why is he running?
12:17Why here?
12:19Well, look, it's as good a place as any to hide out.
12:21It's dark during daylight hours.
12:23You can get yourself a new outfit.
12:25But we're not running from here until we sort out this mess.
12:28This mess is my mess, not yours.
12:31You can still have a future at Oxford.
12:33I think we're well past that point.
12:36I suppose I should probably rather awkwardly say thank you.
12:43For what?
12:44For your flamboyantly impressive extraction.
12:49There's no need to thank me.
12:51I'm having a lovely time.
12:53You ready?
12:54Sorry.
12:58Ow!
12:59Jesus, James.
13:00What was that for?
13:01You need to learn how to defend yourself.
13:04Come on up.
13:06Come on up.
13:09I'd hate to break this to you.
13:11But you're a bit of an embarrassment.
13:16Stop hitting me in the nose!
13:18You need to learn how to stop me from hitting you in the nose.
13:22Oh, very good.
13:24Now, so what happened to you last night?
13:26She came.
13:28We drank.
13:29I woke up covered in blood and was arrested for murder.
13:32So you can't remember anything else?
13:34No, nothing.
13:35Okay.
13:35How many did you drink?
13:36Two.
13:37Two?
13:38One and a half.
13:38One and a half drinks?
13:39Yes.
13:40That's it?
13:40Yes.
13:41Oh.
13:42Are you suggesting she's involved?
13:44I would explain.
13:46As to why she came to your room last night.
13:49Oh, Sherlock.
13:51Oh, I just wanted to thank you.
13:54You're so busy.
13:55Ha ha.
13:57Ahem.
14:00That's not bad.
14:01Well, you deserved it.
14:06She did have her back to me.
14:09As she poured the drinks.
14:10Your companion, James Moriarty, is quite brilliant.
14:14But not as brilliant as you.
14:16So she slipped something in your drink?
14:17That would explain why I can't remember anything.
14:20Here's to your extraordinary future.
14:22Perhaps we do have the right idea.
14:24Just the wrong thief.
14:31She stole the scrolls to ensure the library was locked down, giving her time to plant the bomb.
14:36All good.
14:36All good.
14:38To a point.
14:39If she was trying to kill the professor, why would she go to the trouble of building a bomb?
14:42Why would you not just knife him in the back and get it over with?
14:46That's Oscar.
14:47I would love to see her again.
14:50What's the collective known for a place?
14:52A plot.
14:53A plot of Peelers.
14:55A plot.
14:56A plot.
14:57A plot of Peelers.
15:04I think we should join the plot.
15:23The party was not a success.
15:27No one expected young Mr. Holmes to enter the picture.
15:31What do you intend to do about him?
15:35Already done.
15:39He's been arrested for murder.
15:41And on the run, I hear.
15:43Even more reason for them to think he's guilty.
15:47Is he going to be a problem for us?
15:51I can control him.
15:55He got to you, didn't he?
16:00Upon that wall are 26 characters from the Hebrew Bible.
16:04The numerical value of Jehovah.
16:07Jehovah is both positive and negative.
16:10Ying and yang.
16:11So we double the 26 and we find 52.
16:14That is why we have 52 weeks in a year and 52 playing cards.
16:20What we don't need here is a 53rd.
16:24A joker.
16:28The first apostle has been eliminated.
16:31I don't want to doubt you.
16:35You have one week.
16:37Move quickly.
16:39Find Professor Roberts.
16:45Or it will be our blood that is spilled, Princess.
16:58Forgive me.
16:59I don't want to doubt you.
17:44Let's go.
18:22Anything else to tell me?
18:25No, constable.
18:27Good.
18:29Keep your nose clean.
18:31Will do.
18:38Constable Astral.
18:40Yes.
18:41Do you have anything for me?
18:47You too.
18:50Here.
18:51Now.
18:56Yes, sir.
18:58Young man worked here as a scout.
19:01Sherlock Holmes.
19:02I need information.
19:04Family address.
19:06Background.
19:07Already there, sir.
19:09His family estates in Appleton.
19:11His father's scientific pursuits take him abroad.
19:12And his mother's in a local asylum.
19:15Well, you seem very knowledgeable, constable.
19:17Well, I do like to do my own research, sir.
19:19I think it's fair to say that I would lay down my life for the constabulary.
19:25I also like to do my own research, sir.
19:28And I think it's fair to say that I would lay down my life twice for the constabulary.
19:33Very good, young man.
19:35What else can you give me?
19:37I hear he is dangerously smart.
19:40That's not where my investigation has led me, sir.
19:44I hear that he's not as smart as he thinks he is.
19:47A genius is probably a more appropriate term to describe his intellectual capacity.
19:52I hear he gets all his best ideas from his associate, who we recognize to be the true artist.
19:56I think my colleague's research has taken him down on a verisimilitudinous cul-de-sac, if you will.
20:02The barren land is how our savior might describe this particular cerebral pasture.
20:06Oh, I think that the acclaim is so often erroneously misplaced to the cosmetic factor in an equation of two.
20:15E pluribus unum, sir.
20:18The moon so often takes the credit for the light that is shone upon it.
20:28Thank you, chaps.
20:29Carry on.
20:30Wonderful hat, sir.
20:31Thank you, principal.
20:34Sir.
20:39Waste of time.
20:42Your constable is very impressive, Lestrade.
20:49You take the room, I'll take the stairs.
21:13Detective Fidget said we to search these staircases.
21:21Well, I'll stop you there, chaps.
21:23Save me a job.
21:24Nothing up there.
21:26I suggest you take a look at the north stairs.
21:28I'll check this out.
21:29Bye.
21:29I'll go.
21:30Bye bye.
21:44Bye bye.
21:51Bye bye.
22:01I know about your English children and your nursery games.
22:04Shall I be the nanny and you'll be the little boy?
22:08Are you going to make me come and find you?
22:12That won't be necessary, nanny.
22:16I surrender.
22:17Did you find anything incriminating, officer?
22:20Sadly, my search hasn't been as productive as I would have hoped.
22:24It seems your obsession with me runs very deep.
22:26More curiosity than obsession.
22:31However, shockingly, I am curious as to why I'm being set up for murder.
22:34Are you implying in some way that I am guilty?
22:37Well, yes.
22:42Yes, I think I am.
22:43If I were to scream and they came in here, whose side would they take?
22:48An escaped convict masquerading as a policeman or a highly esteemed princess of the Qing dynasty.
22:54And yet you haven't screamed, have you, princess?
22:57Maybe there's a reason you don't want anyone snooping around in here.
23:05Maybe there's something you're trying to hide.
23:35There's something you have to do with that.
23:36Maybe there's something you have to do with that.
23:36I'm fine.
23:36What do you think me this is?
23:37I'm just doing my exercises.
23:45Ah, that is a shame.
23:53It won't be long now before they come to save the innocent princess from the deranged escaped convicts.
24:05Oh, that was dramatic. Should have taken your job.
24:20Thank you. Thank you.
24:30Mr. Hyles, I'm here to visit my mother. These two gentlemen wish to speak to the director.
24:34My name is Detective Fidget, Scotland Yard.
24:37Constable Lestrade. I'll send for the director.
24:43If you don't play your cards right, you could end up in a place like this, Lestrade.
24:47No, Trudy. Trudy, please.
24:49Everything under control, Nurse Bell?
24:50Yes, thank you. Thank you, Dr. Clark.
25:06Twice in one week?
25:09To what do I owe the pleasure?
25:11You knew it was me.
25:15I know your footsteps. The echoes in that corridor are my whole world.
25:22Has he been here?
25:26Sherlock.
25:29You said he was with you in Oxford. What's happened?
25:31Nothing.
25:33I just wondered if you'd been to visit, that's all.
25:35You're lying.
25:36Nothing.
25:38The man with the bird's claw.
25:40Who came after me.
25:41Oh, please, Mother.
25:42Now he's after Sherlock.
25:45He's a man.
25:46Shh.
25:46Please, Mother.
25:48Don't upset yourself.
25:49Sherlock is fine.
25:51He's settling in, making friends.
25:54Now I know you're lying.
25:58Sherlock never made any friends.
26:01I just wondered if he'd been to visit, that's all.
26:04How to paint a mother's grief.
26:09She was such a pretty little thing.
26:13She was.
26:14She'll never grow old.
26:17No.
26:19She'll always be a child to me.
26:26You have been most helpful, sir.
26:30She hasn't seen him.
26:32The director confirmed your brother, in fact, hasn't been here.
26:35He'll be miles away by now.
26:36He won't run.
26:37No.
26:38He wouldn't do it to our mother.
26:40My brother is innocent, detective.
26:42Mr. Holmes, your brother remains a fugitive.
26:46The chase continues.
26:53Siobhan was desperate for me not to see something.
26:56What?
26:56A burnt piece of paper in the grate.
27:04My God, it pains me to see you so defenseless.
27:08Yes, well.
27:09I recognize I'm a work in progress.
27:15Something silver, embossed writing.
27:18Can you see the letters?
27:19L and R?
27:22Gothic script.
27:23Mean anything?
27:24There was a number to the signing of the Magna Carta.
27:26That's 1215.
27:27That's it?
27:29No, I have seen those letters.
27:33Porter's Lodge.
27:34The photographs on the wall.
27:35It's not L and R.
27:37It's L and K.
27:38Lord and Kingsley, the Oxford photographers.
27:39Why would she want to destroy a college photograph?
27:43Well, if you have the number, you can find the original plate.
27:46You can make yourself a copy.
27:47Lord and Kingsley, they have a shop on the high street.
27:49If we find out what she burnt, maybe we can find out why.
27:53And so we stand like greyhounds in the slips, straining upon the start.
28:01Answer yourself, the king.
28:04If the crown fits.
28:16Good afternoon, gentlemen.
28:18Good afternoon, sir.
28:19We would like to order a copy of a photograph I believe you have already taken.
28:23It's number 1215.
28:25Okay, let me see.
28:31I don't seem to have a plate of that one.
28:35Unfortunately, we don't have enough room to store all the originals.
28:38What was the photograph?
28:39I don't recall.
28:40Would you at least be able to tell us who you made copies for?
28:43Well, ladies and gentlemen, let me check my other ledgers.
28:46I say, is this a Richard Maddox model?
28:49Good heavens, sir.
28:50You certainly know your cameras.
28:52Would I be correct in saying this works on a gelatin dry plate to produce a shorter exposure?
28:56Yes.
28:57And it builds on the collodion process to acquire only two to three seconds of exposure before producing an image.
29:03It must have been jolly expensive.
29:05Yes.
29:06It was, Robert.
29:08It only just arrived.
29:10To be honest, I'm still getting to grips with it myself.
29:12But it produces a remarkable image.
29:16I think this is going to pave the way to miniaturization.
29:18Yes.
29:20And potentially more adaptable photographic emulsions.
29:23Yes.
29:24A new world beckons.
29:25Well, we shall be back tomorrow to pick up the photograph.
29:32You'll be most helpful.
29:35Gentlemen.
29:36Good luck.
29:37Good luck.
29:37Two cuties made.
29:38Schwan burned one.
29:39The other one went to the master's lodge, House of Candlin.
29:43So, we just walk up to his door and knock on it?
29:50Sorry to disturb you, sir.
29:52Is the master at home?
29:53Not here.
29:54There's an engagement in London.
29:56Right.
29:57We're checking all the college premises for this fugitive Sherlock Holmes.
30:01Ah, yes.
30:02I heard.
30:02Well, I can assure you he's not in here.
30:06If I don't check for myself, sir, my sergeant, I'll never hear the end of it.
30:15Thank you, sir.
30:22Did you know him, sir?
30:24The scout, Sherlock Holmes.
30:27Never met him.
30:29They say he was an odd sort.
30:32Excuse me, Mr. Constable.
30:34I was just about to take the mistress here afternoon tea.
30:37If you wouldn't mind waiting.
30:52Sorry about that, constable.
30:54Would you like me to give you the tour?
31:02Good afternoon, Roger.
31:04Oh, good afternoon, Your Highness.
31:05I need to speak with Professor Roberts.
31:07I'm afraid he's not in college at present.
31:09I have to hand in an essay.
31:12The tunneling shield perfected by Ismbard Kingdom Brunel is the future.
31:16Discuss.
31:17Sounds fascinating.
31:19He's very strict about deadlines.
31:21Would you be so kind as to give this to him?
31:23Of course, Your Highness.
31:25Lad.
31:28Thank you, Smudger.
31:29My pleasure, Your Highness.
31:30Put it with the others, lad.
31:32When are you going up to his country house?
31:35This evening, sir.
31:36Why the secrecy?
31:38Why not give out his address?
31:40You mourned your own business, lad.
31:42Who is your bid?
31:43буде.
31:44oh.
31:51Oh,
31:53oh.
31:53Oh.
31:55Oh, oh.
31:59Oh, oh, oh.
32:21Handling College Tennis Courts, 1870.
32:24Why would you not want anyone seeing this?
32:27That's Professor Thompson, your supposed victim.
32:31Who are the other three?
32:32You should know, Sherlock. You waited on a hand and fought.
32:35I cleaned 35 places a day. I made 30 beds a day. I might need a moment.
32:39Pink, man. Pink.
32:40What do you think I'm doing?
32:41I'm not frying an egg or milking a cat. I'm thinking.
32:44This professor, in particular, was very tidy. He kept very little in his room.
32:49There were some books on his desk, but nothing that helps me remember his name.
32:52Excuse me, sir.
32:58Professor Roberts. That was his name.
33:01Very good, very good. Well, keep going. Keep going. Come on.
33:04I might be a scout. I'm not your scout.
33:07I emptied his waste paper basket. There were some letters.
33:09One of them from a John...
33:11John, John, John, John. John who?
33:13John Nowell?
33:14John Nowell or John Howell?
33:16John Howell. How did you know?
33:17First John Howell is an engineer.
33:19So Professor Roberts is a professor of engineering.
33:22Our work here is done.
33:25That's Professor Enright.
33:27He's a meteorologist.
33:30And that is Professor Malik, a visiting professor from the University of Bombay.
33:36His speciality?
33:38Geology.
33:39So what links are four of them?
33:44The gala opening.
33:47The science building.
33:50Well, there was a guest list by the entrance.
33:52Investigate.
33:53They were all on the same table, but table nearest the front, nearest the podium, nearest the bomb.
33:57So this bomb was designed to kill them all.
33:59That's why she didn't want us seeing this.
34:01It's a picture of her targets, a way to identify them.
34:03But in the crux of the thing, why does she want them dead in the first place?
34:08If I had half the money
34:14I left it
34:15Professor Roberts!
34:16Professor Roberts!
34:24Professor Malik!
34:28Sir!
34:38I need you to give me their home addresses.
34:40I can't give out private information.
34:42Check their rooms.
34:43Do you think I'd be standing here talking to your fat arse if I hadn't already done that?
34:48What's your tone, Moriarty?
34:50You are not listening to me.
34:53Bones will be broken.
34:55Blood will be spilled here today.
34:56There's always drama with you, isn't it?
34:58Now, on your bike, I'm busy.
35:00Well, you've been fearful.
35:02You've been fearful of yourself.
35:09One day, I'll remember that.
35:11Oh, yeah.
35:19It's no use.
35:21The man's an empty suit.
35:23I couldn't kick anything out of him.
35:26Excuse me?
35:31Do you really think they're in danger?
35:33Why?
35:34Is there something you'd like to share?
35:45Who is it?
35:46Chef Bob!
35:47Roll through delivery.
35:50One moment.
35:52Rather late, aren't you, boy?
35:54Hey, come on.
35:56Chop, chop.
35:56Bring it through.
35:57Hey.
36:01One moment.
36:02One moment.
36:11Watch out.
36:12On the right.
36:12I lied to you.
36:20One moment.
36:20One moment.
36:24One moment.
36:52Choke to death.
36:57Apparently sugar, warm corpse.
37:13We are stumbling through the fumes of our murderous wake.
37:20You've got a hand in to her.
37:21Forgive me if I'm not ready to applaud.
37:29I'm a wanted man, you should go to the police.
37:31She's thrown down this challenge to you, Sherlock.
37:35Not to them.
37:36Why let them have all the fun?
37:39There are two professors out there still alive.
37:43We find them before she does.
37:45You stand like greyhounds in the slips straining upon the stand.
37:55The game's afoot.
37:56As I was walking all the lane, I heard talk of his mack and mane.
38:06In behind me are no fair guy.
38:10I want to rise a new slay night.
38:15And nobody can say goodbye.
38:18I'm a wah-
