00:03Peter!
00:06Peter!
00:08Peter!
00:09Peter!
00:31Peter!
00:57My boy, why don't you have a spot of bother?
01:00Father.
01:07You're almost going as handsome as me.
01:11Who told you?
01:12Oh, Crow.
01:13Why, don't be cross.
01:15Be thankful.
01:20There she is.
01:21Silas.
01:22My love.
01:28Let me look at you.
01:31Yes, you look well.
01:33I feel better.
01:34I feel stronger.
01:36Dr. Maltby has changed my medication.
01:38And I feel less foggy.
01:40That's wonderful news.
01:41Wonderful news.
01:43Although it does rather appear I'm playing catch-up.
01:46They just let you out.
01:47Not exactly.
01:48How not exactly?
01:53He waltzed in, broke down a wall, and waltzed me straight back out again.
01:58Broke down a wall.
02:00They've been recording her at the asylum, listening to every word she's been saying, effectively spying on her.
02:07So, recording?
02:08Spying?
02:09Who are you?
02:10Who's he?
02:11Sorry, Father.
02:12This is...
02:12James Moriarty.
02:14This is Sherlock's friend.
02:16It's an honour to meet you, sir.
02:18Yes.
02:20What on earth are you thinking?
02:22They'll come back for her.
02:23As a matter of fact, they already have.
02:25And we drove them away.
02:27At gunpoint?
02:28Gunpoint.
02:30Sherlock, my dear boy, perhaps we might adjourn to the study,
02:34and you couldn't do me the kindness of explaining to me what the hell's been going on.
02:38Not now.
02:39Mother, I do feel it's rather important...
02:41It can wait.
02:42I want to do something I haven't been able to do for a very long time.
02:47I want to sit down and have dinner with my family.
02:53Your mother's right.
02:58Family first.
03:01Mrs. Crowe.
03:02Mr. Holmes, welcome back, Sarah.
03:04Now, what's in the pantry?
03:07A little leftover roast.
03:08I wasn't anticipating visitors.
03:10Never mind.
03:11Never mind.
03:12We shall make do.
03:15Now then.
03:18Shepherd's pie it is.
03:20You two get peeling.
03:22Chop, chop.
03:23This looks delicious, sir.
03:25Silas, please.
03:27Silas it is.
03:29Oh, and Sherlock was telling me that you're a scientist.
03:32Yes, a modest one.
03:37Tuck in, tuck in.
03:38Darling, where are you going?
03:39Just a moment.
03:40Oh, I'm so sorry.
03:41Don't box yourself.
03:42Please.
03:44Here we are.
03:45Sorry.
03:47Now, I brought this back.
03:50And...
03:53I want you to have it.
03:55Really?
03:56I finished traveling.
03:57I doubt that very much.
03:58I'm staying here to look after you.
04:00I don't need looking after her.
04:02So she can stay.
04:03Of course she can stay.
04:04Look at her.
04:04She's radiant.
04:05She has a new lease of life.
04:06This place is clearly working its magic.
04:11I am here.
04:12Oh, sorry.
04:13I'm sorry.
04:14Please, can we eat?
04:17Do you mind?
04:17Of course.
04:20That is the weapon that will tame the frontier, by my words.
04:23I mean, who's to say that there isn't an undiscovered miracle?
04:26A genus, perhaps.
04:28With the natural resources to fight tuberculosis, or cancer, even.
04:32I mean, we think we know all of nature's laws, but we've barely scratched the surface.
04:37Well, then, a toast to the great minds like yourself who endeavored to scratch beneath the surface.
04:42Yeah.
04:44Sherlock was an explorer before he could even walk.
04:47Desperate to follow in his father's footsteps.
04:49One day it would be Africa, the next Newfoundland.
04:52Barely made it past the end of the drive.
04:54Once, he proudly announced he was leaving home.
04:56And he was gone.
04:58All of two hours.
05:00We found him in the coal shed.
05:03There we go.
05:13Darling?
05:16Dear boy, is everything all right?
05:23Sorry.
05:26Where's Mycroft?
05:27He's in Oxford.
05:28He should be with us.
05:30He should be here.
05:34You're quite right.
05:35I'll wire for him, first thing, tomorrow.
05:46And now, James, you are about to witness a time-honored Holmes family tradition, Mrs. Crowe!
05:55Yeah!
05:56I must have to be back.
06:05Jack!
06:06I am mysterious.
06:10That's my boy.
06:13So this Professor Marillick, the man with the...
06:17With the bird's claw.
06:18The bird's claw, that's it.
06:19He's the one who's been recording her.
06:22Yes.
06:23And Jaggers, the poor, wretched soul who...
06:25I haven't quite managed to figure out his involvement yet.
06:29It must have been a horrible sight.
06:32We're going to find out why we were doing this to your mother, Charlotte.
06:34We're going to find out why they were recording her.
06:36We're going to solve this.
06:38Together.
06:39And then, we're going to make this home again.
06:42A new star.
06:44What do you say?
06:46I say I'd like that very much.
06:48Ha!
06:49Settle.
06:52Oh, you couldn't fetch another bottle, could you?
06:54Of course.
06:55And when I'm back, I'd love to hear about Vienna.
06:59Absolutely, my boy.
07:45Coming.
07:49Coming.
08:02Oh, there he is.
08:04I thought you got lost.
08:08Oh, yes.
08:12Good lad.
08:14Good lad.
08:15Sit.
08:17No, I've been considering the teaching post at Oxford,
08:23just to be closer to him.
08:26My dear boy,
08:28it looks like you've taken a turn.
08:31I expect you're tired.
08:34I am.
08:37I'm so sorry, Father.
08:38I would love to hear about Vienna some other time.
08:41I've had a rather long day.
08:42I think I will say goodnight.
08:44Absolutely, another time, of course.
08:51Night-night, my boy.
08:54Goodnight.
09:05This sun-powered steam engine of yours,
09:08this would have never worked.
09:09I'll forgive you.
09:10I suppose you were only a child.
09:12You would have needed a solar cell,
09:14demonstrated by Edmund Becker in 1829.
09:22What's that?
09:30What's that?
09:37I found it in Jagger's study.
09:39Underneath his body on the floor.
09:42And my father's coat is missing the very same button.
09:49I see.
09:53I'm sure there's an innocent explanation for it.
09:58I'm sure there is.
09:59Maybe the explanation's in here.
10:01I was flicking through these.
10:02The diaries of Mr. Lawson Jaggers, Esquire.
10:06I hate to speak ill of the dead, but he was a desperately dull man.
10:10Kept a record of everything he bought.
10:11In the space of a single week, he bought himself a new coat, hat, shirt, tie, and cane.
10:17Perhaps he got bored of being boring.
10:20And then the following week,
10:23he had appointments with Mrs. Shaw, Mrs. Turner, Mrs. Morgan.
10:28And he mentioned your father.
10:33What do you want?
10:36I'm sorry?
10:43My mind is...
10:49I'm shattered, James.
10:50Do forgive me.
10:51I'm turning it.
10:52I'm sorry.
11:21This is your fault.
11:37I'm sorry.
11:39I'm sorry.
11:48Wait.
11:53Wait.
12:23Sherlock, my dear boy.
12:25How did you sleep?
12:29Rather fitfully, if I'm honest with you, Father.
12:32I'm sorry to hear that.
12:34Have you seen James?
12:35Left first thing.
12:37Asked Crow for a horse.
12:39Really?
12:40You know where he was going?
12:42Not a clue.
12:45Well, I'm off to the asylum.
12:48Give that bastard director a piece of my mind.
12:52Perhaps I'll come with you.
12:53Yes, wonderful idea.
12:56No, second thought.
12:58Stay here with your mother.
13:01She needs you.
13:16Hello, sir.
13:17I was wondering would Mrs. Turner be at all?
13:20And you would be?
13:20Oh, if I could be anyone at all, I'd be James Moriarty.
13:24So isn't it looking for me that I am?
13:25So perhaps you might announce me.
13:27Mrs. Turner is not at home.
13:29I told you not to tell people their novels.
13:31Tell them I'm otherwise occupied.
13:33Oh, she's otherwise occupied.
13:34Well, when Mrs. Turner is finished being otherwise occupied,
13:38you might tell her that I come on the business of Lawson Jagger's squire.
13:42Well, what I would have to...
13:45I was wondering why I hadn't heard from him a plate.
13:48Yes, well, for that we send our apologies.
13:52For he himself is otherwise occupied.
13:55Are you his new clerk?
13:56Indeed I am, Mrs. Turner.
13:58Far more dashing than the last one, if I may say.
14:01You may say, Mrs. Turner.
14:05Well, let the man in, Nubbles.
14:09Yes.
14:11Let the man in.
14:14Nubbles.
14:25Good morning.
14:26Morning.
14:27Morning.
14:28And where have you been?
14:31Seeking answers.
14:33You smell of perfume.
14:34Well, you wouldn't believe what I had to do to get them.
14:37The Married Woman's Property Act.
14:39Yes.
14:40It's not exactly thrilling, I know.
14:42And this is why Lawson Jagger's squire visited Mrs. Turner?
14:46Yes.
14:46Indeed it was.
14:48Because this act allows married women to own their own property for the very first time.
14:52Revolutionary.
14:52Sir Jagger's was out chasing the work.
14:54Hence the new glad rag.
14:54Exactly.
14:55Because now he could offer these wealthy married women the chance to regain financial independence
15:00from their husbands as newly provided by this act.
15:03Absorbing.
15:03As this is, I struggle to see the connection between this and my father.
15:09Then you're not going to like what I have to say next.
15:10Then I suggest you don't say it.
15:14I'm going to say it.
15:15You're going to say it.
15:17Your mother was a woman of wealth before she met your father.
15:19I now see where you're going with this and I'm going to save us both the time.
15:23You're on the wrong track my friend.
15:24You are getting agitated.
15:25I'm not getting agitated.
15:26You are getting this wrong.
15:27Humor me.
15:28What do we know for certain?
15:30We know that your mother met with Jagger's and we know that they discussed business.
15:33Now let us just say that your father finds out about this meeting and now he needs to know what
15:38your mother is planning with Jagger's because he needs to protect his financial interests.
15:41Conjecture.
15:41So he pays the asylum director to have them recorded but now these recordings are discovered and Jagger's has become
15:47a liability.
15:48So he needs to be silenced.
15:50And so my father has...
16:04And so my father has Lawson Jagger's killed.
16:08Well it would explain the button.
16:10Ripped off in the struggle.
16:12That is really your theory?
16:13When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable Sherlock, that must be the truth.
16:18But you are overlooking one rather obvious fact.
16:20Please illuminate things for me.
16:21My father is an eminent scientist who has been awarded grants from some of the finest universities in the world.
16:29The idea he needs my mother's money is plainly ridiculous.
16:31How do you know that?
16:32Because I know my own father.
16:34Do you?
16:36This man who has been mostly absent from your life for the last twelve years?
16:39He had his reasons, James.
16:40He lost his daughter for Christ's sake and I as sister.
16:43I do not wish to make light of your pain, Sherlock.
16:46No, but you do wish to turn this into a game.
16:48Just like everything else.
16:50If you really want to solve this beyond any reasonable doubt, I suggest we take a look at your father's
16:53financial records.
16:57I really thought you were going to help me.
16:59I am helping you, Sherlock.
17:01As you seem incapable of helping yourself for your father's concern.
17:05I am trying to help you by showing you the truth no matter how distressing it is.
17:14I know why you're doing this.
17:16I pray you, enlighten me.
17:18You are doing this because you have no family of your own, so you seek to destroy mine.
17:23You know nothing about my family!
17:24And you're losing your mind.
17:26But I'll forgive you because that clearly runs in your blood.
17:40Now the man decides to draw a real punch.
17:43Get out of my house.
17:45Gladly.
18:02Your mother needs to rest.
18:29You failed her.
18:33Sherlock!
18:42Ah Sherlock, there you are.
18:43Did you know I just bunted the James?
18:45Swarming off down the drive.
18:46Yes, he can be difficult sometimes.
18:49Well, listen, I brought you here because I have news.
18:51It turns out you weren't the only one Professor Malik was recording all part of some supposedly scientific research
18:57which that dreadful director of the asylum was played handsomely for.
19:01Malik made human guinea pigs of you all.
19:05How does Jaggers fit into the equation?
19:07Malik's lawyer provided legal cover for the whole infernal project.
19:10When he found out they were discovered that he was facing scandal and ruin, well...
19:16the rest you saw.
19:17I've wired the police.
19:19You'll need to make a statement.
19:20Of course, anything I can do to help.
19:22The one positive to come from this wretched business is that we have your mother home.
19:29That's all that matters now.
19:31Did you ever think to bring her home sooner?
19:33Excuse me?
19:35I just... I just wondered if it was within your power.
19:41I... I followed medical advice, Sherlock.
19:49I believe the director at the asylum was keeping your mother there because I was told it was best for
19:57her.
19:58You don't think I don't blame myself for not realizing what was happening?
20:01Oh, Silas, you couldn't possibly have known what was going on in there.
20:07I'm so sorry.
20:11Thank you, my love.
20:13I do want that director punished for everything he did to me.
20:18I won't see him ruined.
20:22I just won't.
20:24I won't.
20:31I don't know.
21:01I don't know.
21:33I don't know.
22:00I don't know.
22:02I don't know.
22:29Is that your idea of an apology?
22:31Well?
22:32Well, it doesn't sound like an apology.
22:34Well, I apologize.
22:35Is that all?
22:37I sincerely apologize?
22:38I still think you can do better.
22:39I, Sherlock Holmes, sincerely apologize to you, James Moriarty.
22:43Oh, well done.
22:45I rather enjoyed all that.
22:47I do have a thought as to how we might gain access to my father's financial records.
22:55I'm not sure.
23:01I don't know.
23:02I don't know.
23:05I don't know.
23:05I do not know.
23:35Oh, yes, sir.
23:37Here it is. Found it.
23:50What are you doing in my study?
23:53The Kaiseri Hind.
23:55Oh. The Swallowtail.
23:58Yes, the monograph you wrote on butterflies.
24:00I was telling James about it. He's rather interested.
24:02Oh. You'd like to read it?
24:05Mm-hmm. Sorry, I should've asked.
24:08Well, you should've, yes, but nothing would give me greater pleasure.
24:14That's somewhere here.
24:17Now, I'd be very interested to know what he thinks.
24:22Bright young fella.
24:24Bound for great things.
24:27I can always tell.
24:30Now, your mother and I are making elderflower cordial.
24:33Now, we've got to keep our spirits up.
24:35Care to join us?
24:40Sure. Why not?
24:52Sure.
24:54Forgetting something.
25:14Cordelia's Vintage Correo
25:38Deliciously sweet
25:40The young leaves, by contrast, smell rancid. It's one of the few seedlings that rabbits have no interest in nibbling.
25:54Did you wire Mycroft? Father, did you wire Mycroft? I just assumed that you would have and you wired the
26:04police. I was just wondering.
26:06I have been rather preoccupied, but you're right. I'll do it right away. Where's my wallet?
26:15My love, it's in your study.
26:20Shall be long. Would you like some more elderflower first?
26:24No, thank you. You sure? Leave aside.
26:36I can only imagine this is strange for you, being back here.
26:43Yes. Yes, uh, yes I have. It has been rather difficult.
26:50Memories in every corner. The happy and... and the unwelcome.
27:04Sherlock.
27:10It wasn't my idea to send your mother away after your sister.
27:16It was her idea.
27:19She thought it would help her recover.
27:26I appreciate you being understanding.
27:36Ah, James.
27:39Well, it's good to see you back.
27:42I couldn't stay away.
27:44Devil makes work for idle hands.
27:46Wise words.
27:51Right.
27:53What have you found?
27:56Just tell me, James.
27:59All right.
28:00Your father had several business interests.
28:02In fact, he's doing quite, quite well.
28:09You can know this.
28:10A scientist.
28:13That's all he ever told us.
28:15Well, here is the thing, Sherlock.
28:18There was a time when he was not doing quite so well.
28:27Four of his companies declared bankrupt in the space of a single year, 1858.
28:31And then, the following year, he had quite a drastic improvement in his fortunes.
28:361859.
28:38The year my sister died.
28:41There's no evidence to prove the fact that these two events are linked.
28:49This is the deed to this house.
28:51It was put into a trust.
28:52By your grandfather, for you.
28:55And for my craft.
28:56It was administered by your mother until 12 years ago,
29:00when your father took power of attorney over her.
29:04He took control of this entire estate.
29:06Because my mother was committed to the asylum.
29:13Declared insane and driven mad with grief.
29:18Sorry, Sherlock.
29:24Either my father took advantage of circumstance,
29:26or what happened that day wasn't an accident.
29:30The force was condemned.
29:30However.
29:57No matter,
29:57not only we were,
29:57No matter what happened so I would later be able to be the door.
30:04mother yes i need to talk to you about that day

36:03I still hear her voice.
36:07Do you enjoy it?
36:14Enjoy it won't, my boy.
36:15When the butterflies stop beating their wings, when they die, do you enjoy it?
36:26It's simply necessary.
36:28You start to hear it.
36:29You start to hear it?
36:31You start to hear it.
36:32You start to hear it.
37:08Could I wake you?
37:09No.
37:10I was just reading.
37:15I have to ask you something.
37:16I'm afraid it's rather morbid.
37:19Go on.
37:29That night, did you see her?
37:34Beatrice.
37:35Yes.
37:36Yes, of course, darling.
37:39Nathan pulled her up in the river.
37:48Again.
37:54Again.
37:56Again.
37:58Again!
38:11I wasn't supporting you.
38:13I was stopping you from getting to a cloud.
38:15Daddy, are you alright?
38:16What are you talking about?
38:21After he brought her inside, did you see her?
38:25Your father brought her into the house and, yes, I just, I saw her.
38:31I saw her lying on her bed in her bedroom.
38:44No.
38:45She was covered by a sheet.
38:47It may be alright.
38:48Before she was taken away, before she was put in her coffin, did you ever see her body?
38:53Why are you asking me?
38:55These dreadful things.
38:55I'm so sorry, Mother.
38:56I need to know.
38:57Did you see her body?
38:58I was in a terrible state and your father had given me something to help me sleep, so I can't
39:06remember.
39:08Knock, knock.
39:10Oh, Sherlock.
39:12Sherlock.
39:12Your mother's had a long day.
39:16She needs to rest.
39:19Time for your medication, my love.
39:22I'll do it, Father.
39:25Well, I think it's best if I...
39:27I'd actually quite like to, Father.
39:36Very well.
39:45I know when I'm not wanted.
39:48Don't keep your mother up talking.
40:01What is it, darling?
40:04Nothing.
40:05Never mind.
40:28What are you sure you want to do this?
40:47Sorry.
40:48You're awake.
40:50I'm just going to clear this away.
40:55Did you take your medication?
40:57I don't think Sherlock gave it to me.
40:59Yes, nod it off, darling.
41:00Oh, yes.
41:04Silas.
41:04Yes, my love?
41:06What did you say to her?
41:09Who?
41:12Beatrice.
41:13Before she ran towards the trees, what was the last thing you said?
41:21Daddy, you sure don't want to play with me.
41:24It's all right, my love.
41:37I don't really remember.
41:42I suppose I blanked it all out.
41:51Why?
41:52You shadow cast me.
41:58Sherlock.
42:11Sherlock!
42:13Sherlock!
42:21Sherlock!
42:31Let's go.
43:15That's not my sister.
43:16They're just a bunch of boys, Sherlock.
43:19How could you know that?
43:20My sister had a broken arm.
43:21That arm's not broken.
43:25That's not my sister.
