Quotes 

• Sherlock Holmes : There are times that I fear you still see him as a surgical patient, who with your assistance could survive, maybe even thrive. Only despite your ministrations, he's not reformed one iota. He still resorts to violence and deception as his first instincts. Even his crusade to topple SBK is motivated purely by revenge.

  Dr. Joan Watson : Isn't it all that matters? Putting an end to SBK?

  Sherlock Holmes : Not to me. You are accustomed to helping people who want to help themselves. He's different. He doesn't want to help himself; he just wants to hurt others. I've become quite certain that in the end, he'll hurt you as well.

  Dr. Joan Watson : You make him sound like a lost cause. Some people might have said you were a lost cause once.

  Sherlock Holmes : Well, I may still be. One of the reasons I work so hard not to lose myself is 'cause I fear I would also lose you. Do you think Shinwell is putting forth a similar effort?

• Dr. Joan Watson : You're sleeping; you never sleep.

  Sherlock Holmes : I *rarely* sleep. There's a difference.
