What possible justification could there be to suspect Joan I don't understand at all

Yeah it makes literally zero sense since presumably at the time of death Joan was at/going to the hospital.

Yeah, that’s a weird leap to make. But Moriarty did it, right? She was fixated on Joan and it would be a nice parallel from the judge accidentally invoking Michael to Michael accidentally invoking Moriarty.

Plus he was bludgeoned on the head, and Watson's shorter than him and has fractured ribs. She wouldn't be able to lift anything heavy enough to do that kind of damage. On the bright side I am pleasantly surprised that, for once, the federal agent wasn't the killer.

I was surprised when they wrapped up the murder storyline so quickly. I thought we were going to get another 10 minutes of getting the smoking gun to nail the judge, instead we got some real good poo poo. That scene with Michael in the house was one of my favorites from the whole series. Good resolution to the whole thing too, especially if it gets Moriarty back. The FBI is pretty dumb on this show if their first suspect is the woman checked in at a hospital with broken ribs instead of her partner with a history of violence and alibi of "cleaning my house alone."

I thought it would be the gay guy that they kept telling Michael murdered his husband/partner. https://twitter.com/Elementary_CBS/status/1039346541788577792 drat, that was tense stuff, though Michael's slow walk chase was never going to go well for him.

I really hope it's Moriarty unrelated.

They really wasted Michael. I hate how they build up stuff and its over with no pay off. Sherlock has a brain problem omg. No wait its now solved. A smart serial killer who outwitted Sherlock many times, oh ho Sherlock will have to have to be 110% to beat h....oh wait nvm.

I really wanted mike to just be so god drat weird and crazy that he was even thwarting moriarty's scheming. At this point, I'm gonna finish the series anyway but how they handle this next episode is going to decide how much I've got invested in the show I think. Still laughing at the helicopter rotor though.

Still laughing at the helicopter rotor though. Well, I still feel pretty good about the show even though I agree with you that Michael felt somewhat wasted. It was interesting having such a genuine, honest villain. Then again, by pretty much wrecking a person's life with no real care about the consequences, they did throw Michael off his game enough to just attack Joan. So I guess they did already win.

Did Elementary have an episode where the crook of the week had been engineering traffic and building accidents so he could rush in and help and be the hero, or am I confusing it with another programme?

Could've been an episode of Fringe for all I know. It's probably a premise that's showed up in loads of tv shows but I saw it in one particular one and I can't for the life of me remember what it was.

I think there was a throwaway perp in an epiosde of Brooklyn 99 where they find an arsonist and it turns out it's a dude who arrives and puts out the fires? But then even I can't guarantee that's the right show. Also Law and Order has almost certainly done it at some point LOL.

It was also a thing that literally happened, there's a Forensic Files about it.

Holy poo poo that was a roller coaster. I would have been so happy if that were the series finale. Since there's still a season to look forward to, hell loving yes and here's to hoping they don't retcon this episode.

And in case anyone was worried: quote:TVLINE | It’s interesting to see a scene on TV between a man and a woman with that sort of declaration, where there isn’t romantic, sexual tension. It very much read as a platonic love. Was that what you intended?

Oh thank god. They were really playing up how much Sherlock cares about Watson in this season, and I was half-convinced going in that the Finale Twist was going to be that they had been or were about to start sleeping with each other. This is a much better development. Agreed that that ending feels like a series finale though. Or as my wife put it, "that sure is the ending of a show where they thought they were getting canceled this season."

They've admitted that on Twitter, that it was written as the series finale.

Good episode, but the dilemma felt overly contrived, both in how they were going after Joan and how they gave so much of a poo poo about a dead serial killer killed by a cop. "I told him to get his wallet, he reached for what I assume a wallet-sized gun and when he tried to sell me a cigarette, I beat him to death and dumped his body in another borough." Medals all around.

"Oh, he threatened me so I had to shoot him. he was a serial killer, and he did murder my friend, and definitely said he'd murder again, so he was nearly as dangerous as an unarmed child which, as you may know, is fair game in america."
