00:25In the merry month, the dune from the
00:29long escrever.
00:30They don't want to play with you!
00:34Get off, you idiot.
00:36Play with them.
00:37Me?
00:39Me?
00:40Where is she?
00:41Vildivia.
00:42Militris!
00:43Benzi!
00:44Help your mother!
00:45My god!
00:46We are done!
00:59A rocky road and all the ways to double and whack falal-dee-da!
01:05My job!
01:30I don't know why you're getting so agitated, I just said you have a rather large cranium!
01:37Mr. Holmes?
01:39You'll have to be quicker than that, Barney!
01:44Saw that one coming a mile off!
01:46You need to hide your intent, War Barney!
01:53Rip his name from me!
02:02Break it off! Break it off!
02:06Is that you, brother dear?
02:08Tis, brother dear!
02:09Put him down, Barney!
02:10Easy!
02:15Nice of you to pop by.
02:17Holiday's over. Follow me, Sherlock.
02:23Really, I meant no offence, Barney.
02:27Captain? Bob? Mr. Dickey?
02:29Sherlock, your brother couldn't get us out, could he?
02:31Mycroft, you heard the question?
02:32I have one card to play, Sherlock. It's either you or him.
02:37Two years will fly by, Mr. Dickey.
02:39What exactly landed you in prison this time?
02:43Reading.
02:44Reading doesn't get you arrested.
02:46So what did?
02:47Oliver Twist.
02:49I rather took a shine to the Artful Dodger.
02:51Ah, so sorry, sir.
02:53A pickpocket by trade.
02:54I thought to myself, I wonder if I could do that.
02:56Allow me, sir.
02:59This fell out of your pocket.
03:00The problem is, extracting a gentleman's wallet isn't as challenging as returning it.
03:04See?
03:05No, no.
03:06Why would you be returning the wallet with its contents intact?
03:09It's the extraction that is the attraction.
03:12That explains the first three months, but you were sent down for six.
03:15I am considering transportation to Australia.
03:18I'm afraid that won't be possible, Your Honour.
03:21Excuse me?
03:231857.
03:23The Penal Servitude Act.
03:25According to precedent, a court is either bound by the decisions of the court above it,
03:28or the decisions of a court of equivalent standing.
03:30Thus, in this case, making it conspicuously impossible to send a man to Australia.
03:34Two months for contempt.
03:35As you could be in breach of the Act.
03:37Three months.
03:38And in an ironic turn of fate, could subsequently find yourself stood in this very dock.
03:42Six months!
03:43I find it astonishing that the judge didn't see your point of view.
03:47My point?
03:48Exactly!
03:50You could have got me out sooner.
04:18I'm waiting for someone or something to take me, to take me over.
04:33The days, days I've forgotten.
04:41Now it's all over.
04:45To be forgotten.
04:49How to disappear.
04:56Ah!
04:58There it is!
05:00I knew there was a face underneath that nest of crows.
05:04So, how was the food?
05:05The chef was often a little heavy with the weevils in the gruel, but the claret was excellent.
05:11You should try it sometime.
05:13Yes, I'm quite happy where I am.
05:14Respectable job in the civil service.
05:17Respectable.
05:17While conventional.
05:19Secure.
05:19Predictable.
05:20Influential.
05:21Tedious.
05:21Reliable.
05:22Consistent.
05:23Stable.
05:24And responsible.
05:25You should try it sometime.
05:26And on that note, prepare yourself.
05:29I come bearing a gift.
05:32Apprehensive.
05:33I've secured you a place at Oxford.
05:35Arguably the greatest university in the world.
05:38You have, brother dear.
05:39I have, brother dear.
05:40Well, I'm surprised.
05:42Grateful.
05:45Always been rather fascinated by a life dedicated to the pursuit of learning.
05:48And I'll be there on government business.
05:50So I'll be able to keep an eye on you.
05:52Make sure your hair is brushed.
05:53Teeth are clean.
05:54Shoes are shiny.
05:55When do we go?
05:56Imminently.
05:56I'm touched.
05:58Moved.
05:58Get dressed.
06:00We're going to pay our respects to mummy.
06:10Mr. Holmes.
06:11We've moved your mother to a bigger room.
06:27Sherlock.
06:28Hello, mother.
06:29Please don't stand.
06:30My darling.
06:33Were the three months hard, my darling?
06:35It was quite an education, really.
06:37Ooh.
06:38Does that hurt?
06:40Oh.
06:41Only when I laugh.
06:43Father wrote to me.
06:44He's in Vienna.
06:46Sounds well.
06:49They're listening to me.
06:54A whirring.
06:57All the time.
06:59They can hear everything I say.
07:02And there's a man.
07:03With a bird claw.
07:05And he's coming back for me.
07:11I'm sorry I haven't been able to visit much recently, mother.
07:14It's not your fault.
07:16But I'm in Oxford now.
07:18So I'll be close by.
07:20And I can visit much more often.
07:24You have to promise me something.
07:27Anything.
07:27You must stay out of trouble.
07:31Understood.
07:32I will.
07:33No more trouble.
07:35I won't lose you too.
07:46University College was founded in 1249, making it the oldest college in Oxford.
07:51I did try to get you in there.
07:52I tried Balliol College II, 1263.
07:55Then Merton, 1264.
07:58Sadly, dear brother, none of the founding colleges would take you.
08:01So...
08:02I suppose I'll have to put up with the clumsy modernity of 1458 then.
08:15There's something you're not telling me, isn't there?
08:17You'll thank me for it.
08:19One day.
08:21Ah, Smudger.
08:22Mr. Holmes, sir.
08:24Sherlock Holmes.
08:25That'll be me, sir.
08:27This is yours, sir.
08:31Cool.
08:34Mycroft.
08:35Yes?
08:36Why is the head porter proffering an apron?
08:38You're a smart boy.
08:39Work it out.
08:41I'm to be a porter, not a student.
08:44Oh, no.
08:44You've got to work your way up to be a porter.
08:46You're a scout.
08:47I'm a scout.
08:49And a scout does...
08:50Whatever I tell him to do.
08:54I'm here to serve and not to learn.
08:56Oh, no, no.
08:57You'll learn all right.
08:58Come on, son.
08:59The shitters aren't going to clean themselves, are they?
09:03Mycroft.
09:04Bon appetit.
09:07Mycroft.
09:12The shitters, sir.
09:25Mr. Chen and I appreciate your government sending you to escort us from London to Oxford, but it wasn't necessary.
09:33Princess, I can assure you the honour is all mine.
09:36My government values our relationship with China very highly.
09:41We wouldn't want anything to go wrong.
09:44Is that why you've arranged an armed escort?
09:48Shit!
09:49No!
09:53No!
10:06No!
10:07No!
10:15Why now?
10:15You're all having a lovely day.
10:18I said, are we all having a lovely day?
10:21Yes, yes. Good.
10:24I won't hold you up for long.
10:27I'm just here for the scrolls.
10:40Thank you, darling.
10:42What about her?
10:45What about her?
10:47Our job is to take the scrolls.
10:48She's a princess.
10:49I think it's a ransom.
10:58You're coming with us, princess.
11:00Mum!
11:02Let's go.
11:47Oh
11:48Oh
11:48Oh
12:17Princess
12:22Oh
12:29What tea, Scout?
12:32Right away, Professor
12:52What are you doing with those?
12:55Siding, sir. I do apologize, Professor Thompson.
12:58No good ever comes of poking your nose into business that does not concern you.
13:03I apologize, sir.
13:06Did you write this?
13:08Yes, I did. It's recently published. Rather well received, if I may say so.
13:13May I?
13:13Yes, of course.
13:19A scout interested in mathematics?
13:21My father always instilled in me the love for reading.
13:25Taught me to be curious.
13:26Ah, curiosity.
13:28The greatest virtue.
13:30But not if you're a cat.
13:32Would you mind if I borrowed this?
13:35Not at all.
13:37Um
13:37Sherlock Holmes, sir.
13:39Sherlock?
13:40It's an unusual name.
14:01It's an unusual name.
14:09Good lad.
14:11Good lad.
14:39You want me to take a shower?
14:42You want me to take a shower?
14:44I'll take a shower.
14:47You can take a shower.
14:52I'll take a shower.
14:54I'll take a shower.
14:56But I'll take a shower.
14:57I'll take a shower.
14:59I'll take a shower.
15:01I'll take a shower.
15:03I'll take a shower.
15:03I'll take a shower.
15:05I'll take a shower.
15:05The shoemaker had a dependency.
15:07Do you mean he was a drunk?
15:08That was his poison of choice, yes.
15:10Which explained your slurt delivery.
15:15Your highness.
15:19A silence for Sir Eucephalus Hodge.
15:23Well, visiting my not inconsiderable business interests
15:28in this glorious empire of ours,
15:31it struck me that it was time to give back.
15:36So?
15:37It is with great delight that I announce this term,
15:41the opening of my new science building.
15:43A brilliant addition to this glittering university.
15:48Well, scholars, on your feet.
15:54I present to you my Hodge scholars.
16:01Keep a good look.
16:03These students will be generals, prime ministers,
16:08leaders who will guide our world into the 20th century.
16:12Enjoy your learning, enjoy your youth.
16:16Welcome!
16:20I came up in 23.
16:23Gitchy feet, though.
16:24And stay long.
16:26May I say so?
16:27No one has had a greater impact on expanding the British Empire than you.
16:31Everything to your satisfaction, sirs?
16:33Yes, sir.
16:35Oh.
16:37You quite sure?
16:38Yes, fine.
16:39Nothing else I can get you.
16:40I am, of course, at your service.
16:41At your beck and call, as you well know, sir.
16:43I said I'm fine.
16:45You know this gentleman?
16:46Yes, he does, sir.
16:47Very well, sir.
16:47How so?
16:48Well, I'm his lowly brother, sir.
16:50What?
16:50Brother?
16:51No.
16:53Is this true, Mycroft?
16:54It's not a very interesting story, sir.
16:56But is it true?
16:59Yes.
17:00Indeed, he is my brother.
17:01So how did he end up serving you?
17:03Redemption, sir.
17:04From what?
17:06Prison.
17:07Her Majesty's pleasure.
17:08How could you say this wasn't interesting, Mycroft?
17:11Do carry on, young man.
17:12Well, my magnanimous brother here took pity on the black sheep of the family for which I am
17:18eternally grateful.
17:19More wine in your lordship.
17:21So, tell me, do you have the same parents?
17:24Yes, we do, sir.
17:26Although, sadly, we only really get to see each other at family funerals, court hearings,
17:30the like.
17:32Sir, today is your special day.
17:36Your scholars are an inspiration to us all.
17:40So, tell me, young man, what was your crime?
17:43Larceny.
17:44Thieving.
17:45Theft.
17:46Petty theft.
17:48Although those days are well and truly behind me, spiritually, and permanently, there we
17:54are, reformed.
17:55Was a taker, now a giver.
17:58Reborn to serve, sir.
18:00I'm sure we can take care of ourselves from now on, rather dearest.
18:03Very well, sir.
18:06I'm so sorry, sir.
18:08Well, no need to apologise, Mycroft, your brother's most interesting thing about you.
18:15One should assume here that x is greater than y, and define the powers of x and y using a
18:22holomorphic branch of log, defined on an open disk of radius, centred at x.
18:33Why?
18:36Why?
18:37Why?
18:37Because that is how it works.
18:41An open disk of radius centred at y, not x.
18:49Why?
18:53Who so generously thought to correct me?
18:59Ah, Mr. Holmes, the Scout.
19:02I see you've read my book.
19:05I did, Professor Thompson.
19:07Which is more than I can say for some of my students.
19:13Saved by the bell.
19:15Homework.
19:17Find me all the solutions of this Quintic.
19:43We're having trouble finding the solutions.
19:47Ah, don't worry about that.
19:50You just have to get yourself some new numbers.
19:54These solutions, they're not real.
19:57They're imaginary.
20:00That means even if you can't see the target, you can still shoot.
20:05So you're a mathematician now, a porter, a waiter, a candlestick maker, and a kleptomaniac.
20:12Who was a taker, now a giver.
20:16Does Hodges' pocket watch keep good time?
20:18They say that it's the unconscious desire of every thief to be caught.
20:22That it's the fear of incarceration that gives freedom its currency.
20:25The fundamental fault of man is to think the enemy is external, not internal.
20:29Prison is in here, not out there.
20:33Hark at you with your heart of war.
20:40James Moriarty.
20:45Sherlock Holmes.
20:51It's a long line.
20:53A line, not a great one for waiting.
20:56Waiting for what?
20:57We're going to a party.
20:59We're not quite dressed for this.
21:01Are you even invited?
21:11Sirs, madams, please stand tight to the wall to keep the path clear for the other students.
21:16This is marvellous.
21:17I won't be moved.
21:18Wonderful dress, madam.
21:24Excuse me.
21:25Excuse me.
21:28Leave this with me.
21:29Sorry.
21:30You have a dramatic split in the back of your jacket.
21:40Two Sazeracs.
21:42There you go.
21:44My pleasure.
21:47Excuse me, sir.
21:48You cannot take that.
21:49Oh, you're absolutely right, sir.
21:50But I can borrow it, and I shall return it to its cradle.
21:53Oh, more more.
21:56Well, look to this day, for it is life.
22:07You're the scout.
22:08Indeed.
22:08How did you get in here?
22:09I invited him.
22:10And who invited you?
22:11No one.
22:12And yet, here I am.
22:15If I wish to socialise with a cleaner, I'd have a party in the servants' quarters.
22:21So if you wouldn't mind, I'd ask you to leave.
22:24He might be a cleaner, but he's a very clever cleaner.
22:27Oh, such fun.
22:28At last we have characters at one of your parties, Peregrine.
22:31I have an idea.
22:33You outsmart the scout, and he'll leave without further protest.
22:38You take a good, long look at him, and you tell us what you can glean, and then he'll do
22:42the same to you.
22:43And then I'll be the judge of who wins.
22:46Very well.
22:48Show me your hand.
22:51Interesting signet ring.
22:52I notice an absence of any type of ring, and no calluses.
22:57He's clearly not intimately acquainted with anything approaching hard labour.
23:01So not just a servant, but a lazy one, too.
23:04Had you not considered that he wears gloves?
23:07So what else?
23:10Oh, that's it.
23:11Well, you had a promising start, but you'd no follow-through.
23:15What you made was an observation, not a deduction.
23:18No calluses.
23:19So how does he find himself in this position?
23:22Well, I'd say he got into a spot of bother along the way.
23:25He got kicked out of school, so he brought shame upon his parents,
23:28and then his father made him take this position to teach him a lesson.
23:32Not quite.
23:33Brother.
23:34Yes.
23:35A high achiever.
23:36Am I correct?
23:37Spot on.
23:38Well, wasn't so hard, was it?
23:41My turn.
23:43Your signet ring.
23:45The crest?
23:46Your ancestor was the Count of Boulogne.
23:49Fought at the Battle of Hastings.
23:50He was five foot two, and he had a face like a cow's udder butt.
23:53He fought like a titan.
23:54So, ugly, yes, but magnificent nonetheless.
23:57Now, as is consistent with custom, a man knows he must wear his signet ring facing inward
24:01to represent content, not outward to represent form.
24:05Inward for noble lion.
24:07Outward for tabby cat.
24:09Tell me, which direction does your ring point?
24:13Oof, peregrine.
24:15That must hurt.
24:17Not as much as this is going to hurt.
24:31You don't know the ship.
24:33Until next time.
24:35I look forward to that.
24:36Whiskey?
24:37Yes, of course.
24:38You can't be found no way at all.
24:40A distant man can sympathize.
24:43You can't uphold his distant loss.
24:46A beautiful woman that you say.
24:48I got a feeling that I hear the star say.
24:52You can't afford the panel.
24:54You can't afford the gun at all.
24:57You can't afford the panel.
25:03At least you can run, because you definitely can't fight.
25:11Yes.
25:12Well, I've always been more of a thinker than a fighter.
25:16Upstairs for thinking.
25:17Downstairs for dancing.
25:20You might want to re-strategize that philosophy.
25:22The two aren't mutually exclusive.
25:25Why do you think an emperor employs a general?
25:29The Hand of Mercy means nothing without the Hand of Judgment.
25:33Slap needs a tickle.
25:35Tickle needs a slap.
25:36There's an art to fighting.
25:39There's an art to war.
25:42These belong to the father of Princess Xu'an.
25:45The Art of War.
25:47Part of the original scrolls, 5th century B.C.
25:52In order to know your enemy, you must become your enemy.
25:58My father had a copy of this.
26:01Didn't do him much good, no.
26:04I'd say it's worth a pound or two.
26:07Let's steal it.
26:09Or better still, you're the expert.
26:12You steal it.
26:13I don't think that's a very good idea.
26:17Oh, that's a shame.
26:20You could do a lot with the money.
26:21I could do more with my freedom.
26:46Tell me it wasn't you.
26:49What?
26:50Wasn't me, sir?
26:51The police are on their way.
26:53Not quite sure I'm following.
26:54The robbery last night.
26:56The library.
26:57You had keys.
26:58The scrolls have been stolen and you was the last one seen going in.
27:03I hope for your sake it wasn't you, my boy.
27:05Excuse me, Mr. Smudger.
27:18Just for clarity's sake, we didn't take those scrolls last night, did we?
27:21No, we didn't.
27:28I just think we did.
27:29He was just in here.
27:30What did he say?
27:32He took my scholarship.
27:34Oh, dear.
27:36Yeah, so without that, I can't stay here.
27:40Lucky you.
27:44Gets better.
27:45Go on.
27:46I can hardly wait.
27:49Well, you'll be going back to prison.
27:52Lucky me.
27:55I'm going to find my brother.
27:59Get dressed.
28:00Meet me in the library.
28:06Mycroft.
28:08Stay out of trouble.
28:11One simple request.
28:13Is there any point protesting my innocence?
28:15Sherlock Holmes.
28:16What is that?
28:19You need my help, don't you?
28:20No.
28:21Sherlock Holmes.
28:21I am arresting you in suspicion of theft.
28:24Uh, you won't need those.
28:26Sir, stop.
28:27I'm a constable.
28:28Yes, the clue is in the uniform.
28:30Constable Lestrade of Oxford City Police Force.
28:32Yes, and I am Mycroft Holmes of Her Majesty's Foreign Office.
28:35I'm in Oxford to assist Sir Bucephalus Hodge with the opening of this new science building.
28:40Now, surely this is more detective's work.
28:42I thought we'd make initial inquiries.
28:44Early worm catches the bird.
28:46Could be in trouble now.
28:48I'm merely trying to prevent you from professional embarrassment from being reprimanded by your chief officer,
28:51who happens to be my bridge partner, and is, as you know, a stickler for due process.
28:57Yes, sir.
28:59Quite.
29:02Thank you, sir.
29:03Good man.
29:03Sir.
29:04Come on.
29:07I need you to get me into the library.
29:10You've got ten minutes.
29:12Don't embarrass me again.
29:14Do you know what we're looking for?
29:15Not really, no.
29:16I thank you for keeping me updated, but I would like to see the crime scene for myself.
29:23A hole in the window.
29:25Wonder what that's for.
29:27You should be a detective.
29:29Hard to escape.
29:30My powers of observation.
29:32What are these powers of observation telling you now?
29:34There has been, wait for it, a break-in.
29:39Astounding.
29:41How did you develop these skills of penetrating deduction?
29:44We've been gifted a couple of paw prints.
29:46There's a hook there.
29:47Who's missing his guest?
29:49I think I've clocked the guest.
29:51Your ten minutes are up.
29:53Mycroft, would you mind telling me why your brother, the prime suspect,
29:58is standing at the scene of the crime?
29:59I think it's only fair.
30:01He has a chance to defend himself, sir.
30:02No, he doesn't.
30:03Not here.
30:04He has a chance to defend himself in a court of law, constable's memoriam.
30:07Right away, sir.
30:12Do you know each other?
30:14Never seen him before, sir.
30:18Leave him.
30:30Mycroft, what the bloody hell is going on?
30:31His brother of yours?
30:33Yes, sir.
30:33One minute he's a redeemed felon, then he's a servant, then he's a felon again,
30:37and now apparently he's a linguist.
30:40Again, it's not a very interesting story, sir.
30:42The thief was here at six minutes past ten.
30:45How can you possibly know that?
30:46Because when he climbed down from the window, he knocked this off.
30:51The clue's in the clerk.
30:53And she didn't notice this, constable.
30:55I can help you find your father's scrolls.
30:57Well, there's a very good reason why you can help find them.
30:59You just tell them.
31:00This is not proper procedure.
31:01Sir, I represent the law.
31:03I will do the investigation.
31:05And they're my father's scrolls.
31:07Need I remind you, sir,
31:08how much of your trade with China relies on my father's goodwill?
31:13We are running late for your appointment with the dean, sir.
31:15Indeed.
31:17Perhaps we should give the princess a chance
31:19to conduct this investigation as she sees fit.
31:21I must protest.
31:22Oh, really?
31:23Must you?
31:24Thank you, constable.
31:25We'll take it from here.
31:28According to Lestrade,
31:29the thief scaled down the side of the building and into a boat.
31:32Lestrade told me there's a river in the woods
31:34where the thief rode from Candlen College.
31:37The thief rode out from Candlen College,
31:38then get out here with the scrolls.
31:40Then?
31:41Disappeared.
31:42Disappeared.
31:43We have no idea where he went, sir.
31:45Footprints.
31:46Only one set of tracks.
31:48Only one thief.
31:49Head off this way.
31:52Footprints in here.
31:55Thief got into a carriage.
31:56Oi, oi.
31:58Looks like one of them wheels was a little drunk.
32:01And a drunk wheel would need to sober out.
32:04Hello.
32:05A coaching inn.
32:06Where one might get a wheel fixed.
32:09I wanted to ask.
32:11Were you trying to impress me?
32:14Impress you?
32:15At the maths lecture.
32:17Why?
32:18Were you corrected Professor Thompson?
32:19Why?
32:20The Professor's calculations were incorrect.
32:23That was all.
32:25Disappointing.
32:26Well, frankly, I don't know what you see in him.
32:28I mean, yes, he is somewhere handsome in a sort of obvious clumsy kind of way.
32:33But if you were ever looking for something a bit more niche, a bit more bespoke, more mysterious...
32:38And where might the Princess find a man like that?
32:41As stimulating as this is, chaps, I need to return to my carriage.
32:45Why?
32:45The gull opening.
32:47Hodges' new science building.
32:48I promised him I would be there.
32:50Thank you for your help.
32:54Your Royal Highness.
32:57A welcomed oasis in the parched desert of this rural wasteland.
33:07What can I do for you, gentlemen?
33:09Two whiskies, my good lady, and whatever you'd like for your fine self.
33:14I know.
33:15I'm getting this.
33:16Your money's no good here.
33:17I'll get the drinks.
33:19You get the tip.
33:21And out of his pocket, he pulled Sovereign's bride.
33:24And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight.
33:29Excuse me.
33:31Our carriage is in need of a bit of repair.
33:33Is the wheelwright around and might we have a word with him?
33:36He's down at the village, but he'll be back shortly.
33:40We can wait.
33:54Are we playing the game of getting another, or are we playing follow the fiddler?
33:58Well, I'll take care of the farmer, if you take care of the latter.
34:02It is your round.
34:31I'll take care of the other round.
34:49He has the Skrulls, he's got the Skrulls.
35:05When are you going to stop locking people's fists with your nose?
35:08It wasn't his fist, James, it was his forehead.
35:09Yes, well, when you're engaged in combat it actually helps to throw a punch from time to time.
35:20He pulled his punch?
35:31What is this place?
35:34Ah, you're here too.
35:36Welcome to my overactive imagination.
35:39Why pull your punch?
35:40He can hear you.
35:42Yes.
35:42But he can't answer you.
35:43No.
35:44Those are the rules, I didn't make them.
35:46Now he's paused.
35:47Yes.
35:48Waiting for something, what's he waiting for?
35:52He's waiting for me to come out.
35:55Wait, it's on up!
36:00Oh, lovely taken.
36:01Why wait for you to come out?
36:06Well, don't you ask him?
36:29You can put them cannons down.
36:35Now, I don't know whether I should split your swede or smash your caps.
36:42What do you reckon?
36:44Hmm.
36:45Decisions, decisions.
36:48Why don't you ask my chum?
36:49Oh, I think they're sweet.
36:58Ah, that's interesting.
37:00Not exactly brimming with scrolls.
37:04I smell a rat.
37:05What if he pulled his punch because he wanted to lure us away?
37:08Well, then someone doesn't want us in Oxford.
37:11Not even the same tube.
37:16We've been gifted a couple of poor prints.
37:19How did you develop these skills of penetrating deduction?
37:24There are handprints on either side of the window.
37:27Though he couldn't have been holding the scrolls.
37:29What happens if he has them strapped to his back?
37:32No, that's too big a cork for too small a bottle.
37:34So he hands them to an accomplice.
37:37Only one set of tracks.
37:39Only one thief.
37:41So he leaves them on the inside ledge and he reaches back for them.
37:44Wouldn't put him down as a gymnast.
37:46Here's another possibility.
37:47What if they never left?
37:49What if the scrolls are still in the library?
37:53That's one hypothesis.
37:54You have a better one?
37:55In the unlikely event that you are, right?
37:58Why make it look like there was a theft?
37:59If there was no theft, that's the question.
38:03You ever use one of these?
38:05Indeed I have.
38:06What the devil do they think they're doing?
38:10Get back here!
38:11There is a special place in hell for Penny Farming's feet!
38:17We'll pedal in there as fast as we can!
38:21Hold on, this doesn't make sense.
38:24The lead's cracked.
38:26Stress fracture.
38:27It's not been pushed from the outside in.
38:29It's been pushed from the inside out.
38:30And then back in again to make it look like it was pushed in from the outside.
38:36Well, this wasn't a break-in.
38:38But it's been made to look like it was a break-in.
38:40It's been a break-in.
38:43It's been a break-in.
38:45Is that where my statue's going to go?
38:47I believe so, sir.
38:49Hmm.
38:50I have a feeling it needs to be...
38:53Hmm.
38:53Bigger?
38:54Very good, Mycroft.
38:55Yes, bigger.
38:56Just higher than all those kings and queens and saints and whatnot.
39:02Hmm.
39:03Princess, so generous of you to find time for my humble little shindig.
39:07The pleasure is mine.
39:10So the scrolls should be in here somewhere?
39:12There's a thousand places to hide them.
39:14Yes, that does provide a challenge.
39:26Well, maybe you were wrong.
39:28I was wrong.
39:29Yes.
39:30Well, the scrolls being here, that was all you.
39:32Remind me, what was your theory?
39:34You can't rush, genius.
39:35No.
39:36You take your time.
39:37Not you who's going back to prison.
39:39Well, maybe if you were a more accomplished pickpocket,
39:42then you wouldn't be going there in the first place, would you?
39:49No.
39:49We've been looking for a something when we should have been looking for a someone.
39:53Walker.
39:55Who?
39:56Walker the porter.
39:58The porter who tidies the room.
40:01He suffers from chronic scrupulosity.
40:03Every night he walks around and makes sure everything in here is in order.
40:07Everything's straight.
40:08Not just straight.
40:10As an arrow straight cushion.
40:12He hasn't been here since the crime.
40:14So, something or someone is not straight.
40:18John Dunn.
40:21He's been to the pub.
40:23He's had a drink.
40:24A drink or two.
40:26He could have another.
40:27He should go home.
40:28But he doesn't know when to stop.
40:35It's a beginner's look.
40:38Our secret lies in confusing the enemy so he cannot fathom our true intent.
40:43What if it was a diversion?
40:45The library is the busiest room in college.
40:47Even at night, porters check on the place every thirty minutes.
40:50The thief makes it seem as though the scrolls were stolen to ensure the library is sealed off as a
40:55crime scene.
40:55He then squirrels himself away in here and waits for all to be quiet and clear.
41:00He needs to be undisturbed.
41:02He needs time.
41:03Time?
41:04Time for what?
41:10This is the case that housed the scrolls.
41:14Our whiskey has made its mark.
41:16Now, before the scrolls were stolen, this case sat on top of a cabinet.
41:19A cabinet which is now missing.
41:22Why was it taken and what was inside it?
41:25Let's focus on the how and that will give us the what and the why.
41:28Now, how does a cabinet disappear when the police are at the only door?
41:36Through the walls.
41:37In its original incarnation, four hundred years ago, before this was a library, what was this room?
41:42A medieval banqueting hall.
41:43Sir, there would have been five corridors.
41:46One for the Norman aristocracy.
41:47Two for the masses.
41:48And two for the servants coming in and out from the kitchen.
41:50All bricked up and panelled over.
41:55Rattatatat.
41:57Rattatatat.
42:24Rattatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatat
42:25it. Now we know how it got here, shall we address the what? Door number one, we have
42:36some kind of mechanical activator. Door number two. The mechanism, it's activating. Door
42:47number three. The timing device. Door number four, as of the guests. Oh dear. Oh now we know
43:00the what. So what's the why? Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the
43:07ability to investigate. Hodge's girl. Do you know how to defuse one of these? No, do you?
43:15Can we move it? I wouldn't. Solution? Well we've only got 90 seconds according to
43:21that clock. This building will be a cathedral to science. The stone and
43:25mortar that surround us. 88. I must now make mention of our brilliant
43:32mathematician, Professor Charles Thompson, for his invaluable contribution. Ladies
43:38and gentlemen, I invite you to charge your glasses.
43:52Holmes, what the devil are you doing in my chimney? Sorry to bother you, sir. Hell, a rather
43:56pressing issue. Well I hope it is for your sake. What is it? A bomb. What do you mean a
44:00bomb?
44:00A bomb is an incendiary device. I know what a bloody bomb is, Holmes. What's that got to
44:05do with interrupting my speech and destroying my chimney? Proximity, sir. It's likely to go
44:09off in the next 30 seconds, killing anyone within the blast radius, which I would assume
44:13is likely to be pretty much this whole room, sir. I see. Well that does seem to be a sound
44:17reason. For God's sake, would you stop being so English? There's a bomb!
44:22it does seem to be a problem, sir.
44:59I'm going to string them up, cut them down while they're still alive, disembowel them
45:03and burn their entrails before their eyes.
45:05Entrails.
45:06Very good, sir.
45:36So what exactly are we celebrating?
45:38We haven't solved anything.
45:39We don't know who planted the bomb or why.
45:43And that is not our concern.
45:45That's not our concern.
45:46We set out to find the scrolls.
45:48We found them.
45:48I'm not losing my scholarship and you're not going to prison.
45:52So I think that's what's raising a glass to.
46:02Why aren't you drinking?
46:04Not thirsty.
46:09Come in.
46:11Oh, another survivor.
46:14Yes.
46:15But I can't pretend I'm not shaken.
46:18Please sit.
46:22Can I have one of those?
46:25Yes, of course.
46:26Please come in.
46:27Close the door.
46:37Well, at least someone's thirsty.
46:39I wanted to thank you, Sherlock, for finding my father's scrolls.
46:45Oh, well, don't mind me.
46:47I'm just an Ashkenazi side dish.
46:52Besides, I have a previous arrangement.
46:55Do you?
46:57You're much more than chopped liver, my friend.
46:59You must stay.
46:59You're the main course.
47:00Oh, no, no, no.
47:01So, Romeo, Juliet, good night, good night.
47:07Parting is such sweet sorrow that I should say good night.
47:13Because I'm after the pub.
47:21Good night.
47:22Now, how should I reward you?
47:24Oh, no, that's not necessary.
47:27At least let me top you up.
47:36Your companion, James Moriarty, is quite brilliant.
47:41But not as brilliant as you.
47:49Here's to your extraordinary future.
48:01You missed a bit.
48:08Why don't you sit down over there and I'll clean you up?
48:14I'm not quite sure this is all, er...
48:16I insist.
48:33You can play with me, Sarah!
48:37Lay with her.
48:38Sarah... why don't you play with your sister?
48:40Go on.
48:42Get up, you idiot!
48:46Lay with her.
48:51Where is she?
48:53Cordelia.
48:54Beatrice!
48:55Beatrice!
48:56Please!
48:57Beatrice!
49:06Your fault.
49:08Come on, lads.
49:08Get him on his feet, lads.
49:09Come on!
49:12Get him over!
49:15Police!
49:16Open up!
49:18That's him.
49:19Get him on his feet, lads.
49:20Hold your feet.
49:24Sherlock Holmes.
49:27I'm arresting you for the murder of Professor Charles Thompson.
49:30Take him away.
49:50This foolish ways.
49:53I know my place.
49:56My time is now.
49:58My time is now.
50:01Although we're tongue-tied and breathless.
50:04We won't let our worries dictate who we are.
50:11Throw out the old doubts.
50:14We won't let our worries dictate who we are.
50:21La, la, la.
50:23La, la, la, la, la, la.
50:26Don't forget who you are.
50:32That's her, dear.
50:38I know my place has now still not.
50:45But it's time to live also on the light.
50:58Just make a
50:59care of.
50:59The foolish...
