Sherlock Holmes : I couldn't solve it before, how can I solve it now?
Mary Morstan : Because it matters now!
Sherlock Holmes : What are you talking about? What's she talking about? Get your wife under control.
Dr. John Watson : She's right.
Sherlock Holmes : Oh, *you've* changed.
Dr. John Watson : No, she is. Shut up. You are not a puzzle-solver, you never have been. You're a drama queen. Now, there is a man in there about to die, the game is on...
[shouts]
Dr. John Watson : *Solve it*!

Sherlock Holmes : Sorry, that was one more deduction than I was really expecting.
Mary Morstan : Deduction?
Sherlock Holmes : Increased appetite.
Mary Morstan : [flashback to earlier] I'm starving.
Sherlock Holmes : Change of taste perception.
Mary Morstan : [flashback to earlier] Ugh, I chose this wine. It's bloody awful.
Sherlock Holmes : You were sick this morning. You assumed it was just wedding doubts. You got angry with me when I mentioned it to you. All the signs are there.

Sherlock Holmes : Now, serviettes.
[pulls tray with two fancily folded napkins out from under coffe table]
Sherlock Holmes : Swan or Sydney Opera House?

Dr. John Watson : This isn't a waltz, is it?
Mary Morstan : No.
Sherlock Holmes : Don't worry, Mary, I have been tutoring him.
Dr. John Watson : He did, you know. Baker Street, behind closed curtains. Mrs. Hudson came in one time. Don't know how those rumors started.

Dr. John Watson : The telegrams.
Sherlock Holmes : Right, um... Mm... First things first. Telegrams. Well, they're not actually telegrams. We just call them telegrams, I don't know why. Wedding tradition... Because we don't have enough of that already, apparently.
Sherlock Holmes : [reading] "To Mr. and Mrs. Watson. So sorry I'm unable to be with you on your special day. Good luck and best wishes. Mike Stamford."
Dr. John Watson : Ah, Mike...
Mary Morstan : Aw.
Sherlock Holmes : [next telegram] "To John and Mary. All good wishes for your special day. With love and many big..."
[pause]
Sherlock Holmes : "... big squishy cuddles from Stella and Ted."
Sherlock Holmes : [next telegram] "Mary, Lots of love...", Oh!
Dr. John Watson : Yeah?
Sherlock Holmes : [with precise diction] "... poppet."
[John and Mary giggle]
Sherlock Holmes : [next telegram] "Oodles of love and heaps of good wishes from Cam. Wish your family could have seen this."
[Mary's expression darkens momentarily]
Dr. John Watson : Hey, hmm?
Mary Morstan : Yep.
Sherlock Holmes : [shuffling rapidly through remaining telegrams] Um, "Special day." "Very special day." "Love." "Love." "Love." "Love." "Love." Bit of a theme, you get the general gist. People are basically fond.

[smiling at his jealousy]
Mary Morstan : neither of us were the first you know.
Sherlock Holmes : Stop smiling.
Mary Morstan : [Smiling bigger] It's my wedding day.
