Oh, and how could I have forgotten about this one?
(I can literally hear John thinking and deciding to not say it out loud.)

John: "Have you spoken to Mycroft, Molly, uh, anyone?"
Mrs Hudson: "They don’t matter. You do."

Hmmm...possible.
And something like: "You still don't understand anything, Sherlock, do you? And I'm not going to explain it right know. Instead I will give you an advice even a three-year-old would understand: Just try to keep a low profile etc etc...!"

Re: Subtext
John knows that Sherlock doesn't understand sentiment and if he tried to explain it would probably lead to an endless discussion. He also doesn't like to talk about his own emotions, so he just says nothing except "keep a low profile". It's a cute scene (and depressing of course, if you consider what happens later).

… and his friends and all his family and I’ve no idea why I’m telling you this.

I have the strong feeling that Stephen Thompson is already making fun of us vacant TV viewers at the very beginning of TRF:
