Caption Competition Week 68
It´s time for a new round of caption competition. 
Tell me what Sherlock is saying in this interesting (and sorry, very humongous) screencap:
-----------------------------------
I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Re: Caption Competition Week 68
I'm just wondering ... which episode is it from?
Sherlock:"hjehflrmvhtlsnbtqüafl..."
John:"What do you mean, Sherlock? Your scarf is too tight?"

Re: Caption Competition Week 68
It is from TBB, after Soo Lin's brother tried to strangle Sherlock. And your caption made me laugh.

Sherlock (thinking deliriously before passing out): Somewhere over the rainbow... Johnlock lies...

Re: Caption Competition Week 68
All your captions are genius, ladies. Had a very good laugh over them.

Re: Caption Competition Week 68
Sooo... this was a very hard choice, because all captions were really funny.
But still - only one can be the winner, so:
Sherlock: "Lie back and think of England? Got it. Now what?"
Congratulations, NoSheetSherlock!
