The running c plot for one elementary episode was Sherlock disarming a series of timed explosive devices, Season 2 episode 17.
Doubting there will be a brownstone -> brownpebble moment.

I like that the mysterious bomb guy can only do one type of bomb, using water bottle refills. He's proud of that. It's his thing.

He disarmed this bomb like a pro.

Iranian exposition lady would have been better if the info spread out over the season imo.

Morland new evil overlord :twisted: But that scene where he reveals that it was his whole life's work and not just a single action that lead to Sabine being killed was good.

Morland 10/10 would wait four seasons for him to show up, again (if required).

Did want a callback to the gemstone though. But I think that's the idea, that it's a way to keep a Morland connection even if Noble can't show up (like Dormer).

That was a very low key season finale.

I thought it wrapped up really nicely, although yea, it was somewhat low key tension wise. I hope they bring Morland back from time to time because he's a fantastic character, but it doesn't sound like they will based on what he said about ~the organization~ cutting off all operations in New York.

I think that Morland episodes are now as doable as Moriarty ones. As in, they could happen at any time but we shouldn't expect them with regularity.

And Morland episodes could still happen in New York, but they'd have to be Morland-Morland doings and not Morlandarty ones.

Was surprised and a bit disappointed this was the finale. Definitely underwhelming, but Morland did kill it all season so at least we had that.

Well well, mister fancy-pants, I hope you're wearing your matching sweater today, or you'll be cut down like the ugly tree you are.
Morland: "I'm going to say a whole bunch of poo poo that will make you reconsider your relationship with Watson in a game-changing, season-finale-worthy way."
Watson: "gently caress that poo poo, that dude's an rear end in a top hat."
Sherlock: "Pretty much, yeah. Why was I listening to him again?"

This show :allears:

When Morland was going through his unsubtle break-up suggestion, I was waiting for Sherlock to be like "Yeah we tried that after the Mycroft thing... Didn't really take."

When Morland was going through his unsubtle break-up suggestion, I was expecting Sherlock to spare a thought for Fiona, but then it turned out he thought of Joan first. I wonder if that's intentional or if the writers just like to forget about Sherlock's girlfriend when they can't use it for a good plot point.

Please please let there be one episode before this show ends where Morland and Moriarty square off.

Turning the light on the darkest places, you and I know we got to face this now. We got to face this now.

Then Morland will figure out that she is his daughter from a fling.

Coming in late because I caught up late, but no. Morland asked Sherlock to consider the person who means the most to him, but that person isn't his girlfriend and both of them know it. It was made clear in the first five minutes of the first episode that Sherlock sees sexual partners as interchangeable and the emotional attachments that go with a relationship as a distraction. Watson, on the other hand, is irreplaceable and unique.
