(Whod have thunk?)

Of those three things, it seems to be the elder Holmes offer thats troubling Sherlock the most.

Morlands sudden appearance at the end of last weeks episode was unsettling in many respects.

If Sherlock was walking on eggshells for the majority of their meeting, he certainly had his reasons.

Of course, there are always strings attached when it comes to the Holmes boys and their dicey decision-making.

Joan has dealt with Sherlocks father for years.

Such is the case in episode two.

I didnt think I should trust you, so I didnt.

I dont know what to tell you, Morland replies.

There are things that money cant buy, but fewer perhaps than youd like to believe.

… Ive always been willing to go to lengths to protect Sherlock.

So have I, Joan counters.

(A thousand Joan Watson fans just punched the air celebratorily.)

Troubles brewing in paradise and its only a matter of time before that tension starts bubbling to the surface.
