Schmiezi wrote:A little question: they kept saying Moriarty visited Eurus five years ago. What happened on the show five years ago? Was it even before the pool scene? Some when during ASIB?
I am really lousy with understanding the time frame of the show.
Didn't Mycroft have him all during the Hounds of Baskerville timeframe "we interrogated him for weeks".. ?

Lis I also really like your list!, especially:
Lis wrote:Sherlock and Mycroft talking about Mycroft's Lady Bracknell.
I want to break free!
Moriarty's hungry donkey nativity.
Sherlock shouting to John when he see he's in the well and his "try as hard as possible not to drown".
Sherlock's realisation that Redbeard was not a dog, poor Sherlock
Sherlock asking Greg to make sure Mycroft is looked after.

A sad story arc as I see it. Beginning of the end?
The original The Dying Detective was about using people as decoys/bait.
In The Lying Detective, Sherlock himself is the decoy, Eurus is also a decoy.
But, as I always remind myself when trying to figure out where the narrative is
going: Sherlock lies. And here the lines between the real and the imagined
and the deceptive are really blurred.
A theme throughout the whole series - John Watson's business is to save lives.
He returns to that purpose here, but only when baited. He hasn't even fully
returned to care for Rosie.
There is a real broken-ness in this episode, and a strange sadness that informs
all of the characters, in spite of all the cleverness.
Even the text by Irene Adler can be seen as just a recurring ongoing sadness/futility
of purpose at this point.
I don't see much hope. I see a sweetness in the John/Sherlock iconic friendship, as
ever. And they do what they are good at: (John is a life-saver, Sherlock is a deceptive and
clever crime-solver), but all lives end.

I liked the writing. Love the foreshadowing line, just before the opening credit music, when Eurus/therapist/Elizabeth/bus lady/Lady in Red/Ophelia/East Wind says to John: "Well now, won't you introduce me?"

What "There's an East Wind Coming" actually stands for
Angst, because *someone* is coming to terms with his sexuality.
Better believe we're about to experience a lot of feelings.
Comfort will be of paramount importance.
Danger Nights and Danger Days.
Expect the boys to have a good warm up in cosy togetherness at the fireplace in 221B.
Fear nothing! Our boys will be all right.
(case in point) Giggles at crimes scenes again. Good Lord, gayness ensues.
Hold on to your guy!!!!
I am taking you back to our flat, John.
John, I found this phrase on the internet. Do you know what Jolto means?
Kindle the flames of jealousy.
Life imprisonment for Mary in a cosy Russian dungeon
Misbehaving characters starting with "M" will be blown away.
Nobody who harmed the boys will get away with it.
"Ostwind kommt auf!" (In a useful foreign language)
Paradise lost, and found again.
Qestions over questions about assassins turning to agents never answered by the Mofftiss
Russians, Russians, more Russians.
