Quotes 

• Dr. Joan Watson : [Sherlock is jabbing her while she's sleeping]  Why are you poking me with your single stick?

  Sherlock Holmes : I'm prodding the sheets in order to determine whether or not my brother is in there with you.

• Sherlock Holmes : Could you just stay out of the eyeline?

  Mycroft Holmes : You're joking. I was just standing here.

  Sherlock Holmes : Yes, that's the problem.

• Sherlock Holmes : [to Mycroft]  Would you get in touch with the Marchioness? I would very much like to ask her why drug dealers want to murder her horse.

• Sherlock Holmes : Joan Watson, this is Nigella Mason, my brother's former fiancee.

  Dr. Joan Watson : Oh... oh! It's, uh, nice to meet you.

  Nigella Lawson : Lovely to meet you.

  Mycroft Holmes : Shall we?

  Nigella Lawson : Yes.

  [as she and Mycroft take their seats, Joan turns to Sherlock] 

  Dr. Joan Watson : [whispering]  I'm confused. Didn't you and your brother's fiancee...?

  Sherlock Holmes : Rut? Copulate? Engage in several bouts of vigorous sex? Yes, yes we did.

• Sherlock Holmes : Of course Mycroft's spiritual awakening is tied to some kind of illness. The man has never met a cliché he didn't have a head-on collision with.
