Sherlock · Season 1, Episode 15

John, Sherlock and others in “Unfinished Business”

[Sherlock and John reach Eddie Van Coon's apartment building. Sherlock buzzes Van Coon's apartment, but no one answers]

What are we gonna do now, then? Sit here and wait for him to come back? [Sherlock notices the label of Ms. Wintle, who lives directly above Van Coon]

Just moved in.

What?

Floor above. New label.

Could've just replaced it.

No one ever does that. [presses button]

WMs. Wintle

Hello?

Hi! Um, I live in the flat just below you. Yeah, I don't think we've met!

WMs. Wintle

No, well, er, I've just moved in.

[grimaces] Actually, I just locked my keys in my flat!

WMs. Wintle

Do you want me to buzz you in?

Yeah. And can I use your balcony?

WMs. Wintle

What?

[Cuts to Sherlock jumping off her balcony onto the one just below it. He then enters through the unlocked patio door. As he looks around, John buzzes the intercom.]

Sherlock? [Sherlock continues to search] Sherlock? You okay? Any time you feel like letting me in? [Sherlock sees Van Coon's dead body. Cut to crime scene technicians taking photos of the body, as Sherlock and John stand by]

You think he lost a lot of money? Suicide is common among city boys.

It never was suicide.

Come on. The door was locked from the inside. You had to climb down the balcony. [Sherlock looks at Van Coon's suitcase]

Been away three days, judging by the laundry. [gets up] Look at the case, there was something tightly packed inside it.

Thanks. I'll take your word for that.

Problem?

Yeah. I'm not desperate to root around some bloke's dirty underwear.
