So, like…

Sherlock saw a bust of Margaret Thatcher was missing…

And then started having weird water-based premonitions…

Because his friend drowned in a well when they were kids…

Even though Sherlock technically didn’t know about the drowning…

And only really had a hint from a sister he’d forgotten…

But yeah…

All that was triggered by a missing Thatcher bust…

Because…

Um…

Why, exactly?

you know i really do believe that there’s going to be a 4th episode but i’m not that convinced about apple tree yard and there’s all this false info being spread and i can just see that we’re gonna do that thing again where things don’t exactly go as y’all planned and everyone’s just gonna abandon all logic and critical thinking 🙂

Considering there’s no ATY equivalent on the US Pbs website I would agree with you. But isn’t it exciting???

i wouldn’t call it exciting when i know that a shitton of my friends might get their hearts broken again. i, too, am hardcore tinhatting rn and i love it, but some people tend to have very specific expectations, and if not all of them are met they act like everything they’ve discovered up to that point is just false and useless.

Questions/comments I have as a lawyer:

Did nobody question where the fuck the third child fucked off to?

There is a protocol for children who do fucked up shit. That…is not it.

Does victor trevor not have a family?

Was local law enforcement never called?

If so, I’m pretty sure wells are like place number one to check.

Why the fuck would Mycroft not get a neutral third party to deal with his sister? He obviously was failing to be objective.

And just a general “what the fucking fuck?” For good measure.

What about all the people who knew about Eurus BEFORE she was whisked away? Doctors, teachers, family friends, classmates, neighbors, extended family.

Did everyone get mind-wiped by the MIB?

More fucky things…

Where was Ben’s 20 page monologue they were so excited for during comicon? 

Where was the scene Martin was uncomfortable to film, and had to do it alone? (it wasn’t Mary’s death scene cause other actors were present)

Why was John typing into a jpg file about a baby that wasn’t born yet?

Why did Lady Smallwood’s name change from Elizabeth to Alicia? 

Why in the hell did Mycroft let his sister who he KNOWS is a manipulative genius psychopath talk to another  manipulative genius psychopath?

Why all the water imagery that was never followed up on?

Why the glowing, sometimes black, skull painting?

Why constantly build Mary up as a villain, then have a half-arsed redemption arch? 

Why WHY do that Molly Hooper?

Why think a secret sibling would be ‘history making’ when it’s an over used, soap opera level trope?

Why would Amanda say an actor playing more than one character would be ‘ground breaking’ when orphan black, vampire dairies, Tyler Perry’s movies and soooo many others do the same thing?

WHY?? 

Something has to be up, this makes NO sense.

knowing that eurus was so dangerous that she had to be locked away in a special impenetrable facility on an island somewhere

why would mycroft literally ever allow her to converse with moriarty whether it was supervised or not

and like knowing what moriarty was capable of and knowing of his diabolical obsession with sherlock

why would mycroft allow moriarty access to his baby sister whether it was supervised or not

perhaps somewhat predictably, i am calling bullshit

yeah mycroft made no sense this episode…….. it was a present for her??? how could he be so stupid? get her an xbox or something

also like. he didn’t HAVE to get her anything….he could have just. not done that…..

RIGHT

or like

if he really felt some brotherly obligation he could literally have sent her a batch of holiday cookies
