Re: Sherlock's Apologies
Still, I don't think Sherlock "fancied" her or anything, he was just fascinated by her, and admired the fact that she was "mildly intelligent".

Also, I love the way he apologises to John in Hounds - "I don't have friends. I've just got one." That's pretty genuine without actually saying the word "sorry."
That's one of my favorite scenes. It's so genuine, without being overly sappy. John's helped him come a pretty long way at that point when it comes to his ability to know and appreciate that relationship.

Re: Sherlock's Apologies
Yes, a wonderful scene. A bit off topic but I also love the one at the end of TGG when he says to John that it was good what he tried to do. I think it's the first time he's bringing himself to acknowledge John's loyalty and friendship.

Re: Sherlock's Apologies
I agree with that moment at the end of TGG. You can see their friendship evolving and each of them acknowledging it to the other in small ways.

Re: Sherlock's Apologies
He was annoyed by the situation and annoyed with Molly because she revealed that he was unhappy about John spending christmas with Harry. So he went for the kill, and for once realized that he had gone too far.
I remember Molly mentioning Harry, but not quite Sherlock's reaction to it or that it bugged him, but now I have a reason to go back and watch his response more carefully.
