Quotes 

• Sherlock Holmes : Look. I've never felt any pressure from you that I co-parent. But, your idea that I take *no* responsibility for raising your child is naïve. It's not that I think you're incapable of raising a child on your own. Of course you are. But, short of us dissolving our partnership, I'm not capable of not being involved. No-no, not as a child's father, but as its mother's friend.

  [Deeply sincere and with great regard] 

  Sherlock Holmes : I mean, I'd lay down my life for you. So, if you succeed in adopting a child, I'd lay down my life for him or her's. It's as simple as that.

  Dr. Joan Watson : Have you thought about what you wanna be called by my kid? I mean, assuming... I get one.

  [At his surprised silence] 

  Dr. Joan Watson : I was thinking... Uncle Sherlock.

  Sherlock Holmes : Yeah, well, I've been called worse. I'd also settle for Detective.

  Dr. Joan Watson : My child is not calling you *Detective*.

  Sherlock Holmes : [Shrugging, but obviusly touched]  Well, Uncle Detective, then.
