Not sure if this has been discussed somewhere else:

Was Sherlock really about to shoot himself or has he deduced that Eurus would not allow that?

And has Eurus known beforehand that Sherlock would rather kill himself than killing John or Mycroft?

Why did she have the tranq darts set up around the room if she didn't totally expect it? ( Sherlock shooting himself )

As for MP , who's MP were we in when we saw the kids playing and the three men outside the burnt house.
Or was that just camera narrative . 

Just small questions:

​I may sound dumb, but I'd rather ask than stay ignorant, I didn't understand whether Eurus was one year older or younger than Sherlock? (I know John said something about how being a middle child explained a lot, but I don't know if he was talking about Eurus or Sherlock?) The little girl in the memories looked older than Sherlock but I'm not sure...

​I've only watched the episode once (I have pre ordered the dvd and will watch them all again once I have received it --i think it's supposed to be shipped on the 23rd but I'm not sure)  and maybe I've missed something (English is not my mother tongue and I watched without subtitles). I guess John has recognised "Elizabeth" disguised as a therapist at the end of TLD but has anything been said about him being actually attracted to Sherlock's sister? (i don't remember him saying he was shocked or something)

​Thanks!

I am sure Eurus is one year younger that Sherlock but you are right, she looks older. But then, girls often do at that age.

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.

@ Schmiezi Was it just before TRF?

Didn't Mycroft have him all during the Hounds of Baskerville timeframe "we interrogated him for weeks".. ?

Ahhh yes.  So could be sometime after the TRF episode's  trial acquittal

Thanks BB.  EDIT : and thanks Schmiezi too! (i hadn't seen your post when I posted mine)

For some reason, I would have liked it more if Sherlock had been the youngest child, but that's a detail

​Maybe my second question was not very clear sorry. Did John realised when she revealed herself as Sherlock's sis at the end of TLD (when she takes her contact lenses off etc) that she was the "woman at the bus stop" and so, the woman with whom he exchanged texts? And if so, has there been anything said about that? About him being attracted to Sherlock's sister? (because that's really interesting i think, and it would have been interesting to see how Sherlock would have reacted to that). Or does he not even know that Eurus was "Elizabeth"??

She shows him the flower in her hair and says something along the lines of "hiding behind a sexy smile" I think John understood that it was her.

Yeah he was incarcerated...but by the time of meeting Euros, he was free wasn't he?

​Indeed. Moriarty asks "Am I under arrest again?" and Mycroft says "You remain a person of interest, but until you commit a verifiable crime, you are, I regret, at liberty."

​(btw, have I a dirty mind and do I misunderstand Moriarty's "How do you want me?" when Mycroft says he's a Christmas present?? )
 

@Punch me THAT is what I referred to as my new favourite line, on the first impressions thread.
I thought something very rude about it, which I couldn't possibly type on this forum!

@Phantom:  brilliant description.
