Sherlock: For a brief stretch in London, I talked only to a phrenology bust I kept in my study. I named him Angus. It wasn't the same. I realized when it came to listeners preferred animate to inanimate. It was quite a break through.
Watson: Angus. I am glad I made it to the animate category.
Sherlock: What are you doing?
Watson: Depriving you of all stimuli; time for you to get some sleep.
Sherlock: What? No, no. Right after you solve a case, you're flushed with a success. We should double down with work.
Watson: We?
Sherlock: You, me, Angus, some combination of the three. You already know I favor you.
Aaron: What is I.M.L.T.H.O?

Gregson: I DID know.
Sherlock: I beg your pardon?
Gregson: Do you honestly think I would let you consult for the NYPD without doing my homework?

Joan: You said the attendant was a friend of yours?
Sherlock: We post in the same bee keeping chat room. He has an impressive amount of Caucasians.... Species of bee.
Joan: Of course it is.

Joan: He's got a form of turrets.
Joan: "Better lucky than good". Sounds to me like you were lucky.

Joan: I know what it's like not to be lucky, it turned my life upside down.

Watson: How did you know I was a doctor, you said you could tell from my hands.
Sherlock: Hand, singular. It was soft no calluses.
Watson: How did you know my father had an affair?
Sherlock: Google. Not everything is deducible.
