After recent events, I think we may have been a little bit amiss in earlier discussions regarding references to The Dying Detective. S4E3: THE CRYING DETECTIVE (aka a six year old and his dog) is all I have to say right now.

All three eps are gonna be variations on a theme.

S4E1: The Trying Detective
Sherlock is pretending he’s got his shit together. (Surprise twist: he doesn’t!)

S4E2: The Dying Detective
No, really, he’s actually pretty sick here. Someone should probably get him to hospital or something.

S4E3: The Crying Detective
You thought it was bad watching him become violently ill? Hahaha, just wait until you see his childhood…
