How, in this case, does "A" lead to "B"?
Maybe "A" didn't lead to "B"... maybe "B" led to "A".

But don't take my word for it. I'm just a woman with a crazy story...
Would you please give [Captain Gregson] this message? "Fairly certain E-R-O-C will be robbed today, connected to security guard murder, Sherlock Holmes. Over." Right, we need to get to East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. I thought the whole reason we left the house was because we could not reach the police.
Well, we have no idea if they're going to get the message, or whether they can spare the manpower if by some miracle they do get the message. And we don't even have any proof. No, the most sensible course is for us to go to EROC ourselves.
And do what? What if there are fifty commandos shooting up the place?
Well, I have my whistle. (Watson starts to protest) I don't know what's gonna happen next! That's what makes this an adventure. So, Pam, very sorry to do this, but we're commandeering this vehicle on behalf of the NYPD. Let's go!

(unimpressed) You, get out. (to Watson) You, I can give a ride home to if you want.
Yesterday you complained when I took Ms. Hudson in.
Yesterday I was upset because you brought a stranger into our shared living space without asking. Today she's no longer a stranger. I like Ms. Hudson. You know, she's lost. She's just trying to figure herself out.
You identify with her. She's like you were before you met me.
What?
Lost, trying to figure yourself out.
No, I reject that analogy. I just want to help her. I think it would be good if Ms. Hudson learned to take care of herself, that's all.
I have a particular disdain for blackmailers. They are, in some respects, more despicable to me than even murderers.
Two years ago, Charles Milverton referred a client to 'The Sheriff.' His name was Abraham Zelner, a morbidly obese man who wanted to sue an airline for removing him from a flight. Zelner was the only client that Milverton referred. Earlier we were theorizing that 'HENRY8' was Milverton's accomplice. Henry the Eighth, as I'm sure you're aware, was the fattest monarch in British history.
So you think Zelner was his accomplice, and that Milverton gave him that code name because he was heavyset?
Orson Welles was heavyset. Abraham Zelner could pull small moons out of orbit.
(answers phone) The Brownstone is on fire, my bees have escaped, and there is a giant comet headed for Manhattan.
Excuse me?
The way the evening is going, I thought you could only be calling with more good news.

[Singing] Sherlock's up and Sherlock's down but he's always wears that sacred frown!
[To Watson] The thing that's different about me is you.
[To Sherlock] I am dissecting a body in the middle of the night. We are not having a moment.
My name is Moriarty. I believe we're overdue for a chat
[To Sherlock] Wow, and insult and a boast.
There's something you got to try to understand. Guys like him, they walk between the raindrops, they don't get wet. People like you do. People like his ex-girlfriend do.
You're in the danger zone also.
I've been a cop for 30 years! I carry a gun!
[muttering] And a penis.
I'm not your sober companion anymore, but I know a relapse trigger when I see one.
