Promised her everything …left her abandoned and penniless….. a spectre to stalk those unpunished brutes whose reckoning is long overdue…. a league of furies awakened…The women we have lied to, betrayed…. the women we have ignored…and disparaged … Of course it doesn’t make sense. It’s not real.
At the end of tfp, Sherlock says, “You killed my best friend”, while crying. This could be referencing the fact that John really is dying because he got shot in tld. Victor Trevor is a mirror for John, and John is Sherlock’s best friend. They made a huge deal out of establishing them as best friends in tsot. I don’t think they would use the term again if they weren’t making a connetion between them. So if tfp really is happening in John’s mind bungalow, he’s imagining Sherlock getting upset over his possible death. end meee nowww
Okay so I went back to check out 221b on google maps again and made a very intersting discovery. this is the table in their living room…
let’s zoom in on this a bit and…. voilà!
there we have it. what else is this if not a bloody tranquilizer gun?!?
like, I I did a quick search online and couldn’t find the exact same model but it looks very similar to this one:
so yeah, Mofftiss clearly know the difference between a handgun and a tranquilizer and so does John Watson – who was definitely shot in TLD – and not with a tranquilizer gun…
A rifle hanging on the wall AND fresh paint, which is commented on specifically but never explained? It’s getting hard not to believe something’s up with that…
If the Garridebs moment wasn’t happening, it shouldn’t be hanging there?
IS THIS CHEKHOV’S GARRIDEBS, I AM LIVING
Not just there … also on the S4 DVD cover picture (as I added to the other post about Chekhov).
Are there more rifles in S4?
Though let’s point out their not the same guns. Did the AGRA team use this rifle?
still hemorrhagging internally from even the thinnest possibility that the “special hair band” conversation is about john stealing his mom’s queen albums and listening to them in secret and getting his ass beat by his homophobic military dad
EURUS: My hairband. Did you bring it like I asked?
SHERLOCK (hesitantly): I’m not one of the … I-I don’t work here.
EURUS: My special hairband.
SHERLOCK (more firmly): I’m not one of your doctors.
EURUS (sounding exasperated): The one I made you steal, from Mummy. (She turns to face him.)
EURUS: It was the last thing I said to you, remember, the day they took me away.
like i’m sorry but WHAT ELSE could this be if we’re not in JOHN’S MIND talking not about hairbands but hair. bands. aka BABY JOHN’S LOVE OF LATE 70s/EARLY 80s GLAM ROCK AND HEAVY METAL AS EVIDENCED BY DROPPING BOTH IRON MAIDEN AND QUEEN SONGS INTO HIS DEATHBED DREAM SOUNDTRACK
and FURTHERMORE WHY was that the last time that Euros/Eros/Love spoke to him before being taken away from him forever IF NOT BECAUSE OF BABY BI JOHN’S SWEET CRUSHES ON/EMULATIONS OF ANDROGYNOUS GLAM FRONTMEN I’M THROWING A CHAIR
So, um, Euro’s song includes the line “my steps – 5 by 7″
…57.
Which is not from the original Musgrave ritual which goes:
“ ‘Whose was it?’
“ ‘His who is gone.’
“ ‘Who shall have it?’
“ ‘He who will come.’
“ ‘What was the month?’
“ ‘The sixth from the first.’
“ ‘Where was the sun?’
“ ‘Over the oak.’
“ ‘Where was the shadow?’
“ ‘Under the elm.’
“ ‘How was it stepped?’
“ ‘North by ten and by ten, east by five and by
five, south by two and by two, west by one and by
one, and so under.’
“ ‘What shall we give for it?’
“ ‘All that is ours.’
“ ‘Why should we give it?’
“ ‘For the sake of the trust.’
OH MY GOD OKAY adding onto the theory that TFP is john’s TAB, look at these images.
the first one is a promo for TAB and the second is a promo for TFP. look at their poses… you guys, ;these are almost the exact same photo!!
this feels like it should be really obvious and so please tell me if this has been pointed out before. i’m not going to tag anyone but please add commentary if you want
BUT WHAT THE FUCK HOW DO YOU NOT INCLUDE A SCENE IN THE SHOW OF WHICH YOU HAVE RELEASED AN OFFICIAL PROMO PICTURE????
Isn’t this just another angle to the ‘’We might all just be human’’ moment?
LOOKS DIFFERENT TO ME
Ah yes, my mistake. Then… no idea, actually. It is set in TLD (the scruff gives it away), but then I think it’s safe to say that this did not happen in the episode itself.
honestly just another to add to the ‘queerbait’ pile
How did this go, did they tell Ben and Martin to dress up as John and Sherlock, just pick random clothes (because I don’t even remember a scene where they would be dressed like this in each other’s presence at any time of day), Ben you stand there and open your mouth so it looks like you’re talking, Martin look at him like you’re listening, don’t ask why, we just need to take this one photo to fool our most devoted fans… just what was the point of any of this
Yeah, Ben’s not wearing the coat in that pic and Martin is wearing a tighter shirt from the looks of it. So I ask on everyone’s behalf. WHERE THE FUCK IS THE REAL SCENE
This was probably a pic from a different version of the scene.
Ok but does it means that when Sherlock says John is family, could it mean he’s saying the same to the paramedics trying to get john to the hospital, refusing to let go of him??
Also, “Oh… it’s making a funny face. I think I’ll put a hole in it.”
Tranquilizers… don’t… do that? I mean, a very TINY hole, maybe.
Someone who knows about guns will have to analyze the gun itself, but after some cursory research… looks like a straight up bullet-firing pistol to me. And the smoke? Just?
John was not tranquilized. He did not just fall asleep. He was shot.
