I think my favorite Martin expression in the entire show is the one right after Sholto says from behind the door, “Mr. Holmes, you and I are similar, I think.”

It’s one of the most damning expressions in the show, like… why would he make THAT face if it were just a statement of how Sherlock and Sholto are platonically similar? Most people just think it’s neat when their friends meet each other and realize they’re similar, but John’s face is just like, “HAH THIS IS REALLY MY FUCKING LIFE, I WILL NEVER ESCAPE”

THERE IT IS. THERE IT FUCKING IS

YES THANKS I LOVE THIS. I’ve always read John as “Why do I have to fall for Drama Queens?!” And John instantly leaves to give Sherlock the space with Sholto! You know, let the ones who TRULY know him talk… NOT MARY.

This bit is just priceless. And it blows my mind how casuals are blind to it.

No escape, John.
