마치기 전에 토론을 해봅시다

좀 다른 주제를 제시하죠

당신이 가진 가장 이상한 생각은 뭡니까?

무슨 뜻인지 알죠

제정신이 아니지만

분명 머리 속에 가장 두드러진 생각이 있어요

내가 다른 시대에 태어났다면
어떨까 종종 생각해요

아, 제 이름은 셜록이고 중독자입니다

안녕, 셜록

저는 어..

제 감각은 일반적으로

타고난 것과는 달라서요

우리시대는 소란스러운 시대이죠

끊임없이 두들기는 소리가 지속되고 있어요

이 불협화음은

집에서도

침대에서도 따라다니고

우리의

영혼까지 스며들어요

더 잘 표현할 말이 있을텐데

오랜 시간동안

내 신경말단을 뜨겁게
만들어주는 단 하나는

엄청난 양의 약이었어요

그래서 비생산적인 시간 동안에

궁금해졌어요

지금보다 조금은 더 조용한 시대에

태어났다면

내가 중독자가 됐을까?

더 집중할 수 있지 않았을까?

더 현실적인 사람이지 않을까?

고대 그리스같은?

그리스 시대에 치과진료가
생긴 건 알고 있어요?

아니,아니

난 현대의 기적에 대해 알고 싶은 것 뿐입니다

모든 것이

증폭되기 전

어떤 시대?

200년 전?

마이크로프트

웹사이트에 누구나 참석할 수 있다길래

내 동생을 지지하러 기쁘게 왔단다

매력적이지

아니, 난

실례할게요

미안해요

어, 일찍 나왔네요

네가 저기서 한 말에 의미가 있는 거니

아님 그냥 끝내려고 한 소리니?

-마이크로프트
- 모임을 위태롭게 할 줄 알았으면

그런 말은 절대 안 했어

- 설명해봐!
- 가정부가 나갔다고 하길래

잘 구슬려서 어딜 갔는지 알았지

- 넌 영국 살잖아
- 요새 비행기로 그 정도

거리는 얼마나 빨리 나는지

너도 잘 알잖니

조앤, 다시 만나서 기뻐요

오, 미안해요

반가워요

뉴욕에는 무슨 일이세요?

다음달에 돌아갈 겁니다

트라이베카에 내 레스토랑인

디오게네스의 지점을 열 예정이죠

경고를 하고 나타나려고 했지만

상황이 그래서 더 빨리 오게 됐어요

어떤 상황?

응, 우리의 좋은 친구에게

문제가 생겼단다, 셜록

우리에게 공통의 친구는 없어

'지인'이라고 하는게 더 좋겠구나

저녁식사를 하면서 설명하는 게 어떨까

밤에 예약을 하려고 했는데

이미 꽉 찼다고해서요

자연스럽게 즐길 수 있는곳을 원했어요

터무니없는 가격을 매길 게
틀림없어보이는군

와, 숨이 막힐 정도네요

고마워요.
메뉴를 정하는 중이니까

2주 안에 개점할 겁니다

여기 있는 동안
젊은 쉐프들 면접을 보면서

새로운 목소릴 찾고 싶어요

그렇군요

오랜 지인?

장난해?

음, 직접 설명을 듣는 게
가장 좋을 것 같아서

셜록 홈즈
여전히 멋지네

언제 나이를 먹을 건지
결정되면 말해줄래?

- 여기 당신이 있단 얘기도 못들었어/- 오

조앤 왓슨, 여긴 나이젤라 메이슨이고

형의 예전 약혼녀였어요

오, 오!

만나서 반가워요

저도 만나서 반가워요

- 앉을까요?
-네

혼란스러워요

당신이랑 형의 약혼녀는 ....

뭐요? 성교?

활발한 섹스활동?

네,그래요. 했었죠

나눠드시도록 나올 겁니다만

각자 속도대로 드시면 됩니다

뒤에 준비된 음식이 많아요

오늘 술은 안 드신다고 알고 있습니다만

다른 제한사항이 있으신가요?

출세주의자들의 모임에
있으니 입맛을 없네요

없어요, 고마워요

우리 세사람 사이에

약간의 어색함이 있는 것 같네

난 결혼식 전에 널 유혹해서

마이크로프트에게 너의 진짜 모습을 보여줬어

당신 방식대로 그의 인생에
폐를 끼칠 지는 생각도 못했지

복잡하단다, 셜록

마이크로프트와 헤어지고 1년 뒤에

로버트 서폴크라는 남자와

사랑에 빠져 결혼을 했어

라우드워터의 후작이라고도 알려져 있지

후작이요?

중급 귀족이죠

백작과 공작 사이에 끼어있는

그럼 당신은 어,

라우드워터의 후작부인이죠

남편이 유지하는 동안은
작위를 유지할 수 있어요

후작따위 아무 이득은 없지만

배우자로 계속 견디고 싶지도 않았어요

그래서

난 외로워서 달튼에게 갔는데

그는 로버트의 경주마를
관리하는 사람이에요

자질구레한 설명으로
지루하게 하고 싶진 않지만

사설 조사원에게

사진을 찍혔고
추접한 짓이 뒤따랐죠

이젠 내가 너에게 알려주려던

호의가 어떤지 알겠지?

로버트와 내가 법정 다툼을 하던 중

난 그의 말 중 하나를 매우 사랑하게 됐는데

실버 블레이즈라는 챔피언 종마였고

내 변호사의 뛰어난 능력 덕분에

결혼과 작위에서 빠져나온 대신

실버 블레이즈의 마주가 됐어

이제 더 달릴 수는 없어

나이가 많거든

하지만 종마번식의 수요가 많아

그럼 넌 말 포주가 된 거야?

아주 꼭 맞네. 수익이 좋겠어

실버블레이즈는 얼스터 카운티에 있어

요전날 밤

달튼은 평소처럼 동물들에게

약을 주기 위해 마굿간으로 갔어

차에 친구를 태우고 갔는데
그의 말에 따르면

달튼이 마굿간에 침입하려던 사람을 발견했대

달튼과 맞닥뜨리자

그 남자가 달튼을 쐈고

즉사했어

유감이에요

고마워요

끔찍했죠

살인자가 도망칠 때

짐을 놓고 갔는데

경찰에서는 농축 칼륨이
담긴 주사기를 발견했고

달튼을 죽인 범인이 실버 블레이즈를

독살하려 했다고 보고 있어

그래서 우리더러 범인을 찾아서
네 밥줄을 보호해 달라고?

달튼을 위해 심판받게 해줘

내 인생에서 실수를 했던 건 나도 알아

하지만 난 더 나아지려고 했어

그래서 마이크로프트가 아플 때

그가 날 용서해줄 방법도 찾았었고

나이젤라, 그만

그리고 난 너도 똑같이 할 수 있다고 믿어

마이크로프트가 아팠던 것 몰랐어?

백혈병이었어

골수이식 받았고

이제 나아졌어

너에게 말할 기회를 찾았지만

말을 못했어

진심으로 유감이야

하지만

이 사람은 끔찍하고 독한 존재야

운이 좋게도, 난 내 인생에서 다시 이 여자와

잘 일은 없기 때문에 난 이만 가봐야겠어

후작부인

사건을 찾고 있어요?

형이 당신을 불편하게 만들더군요

형이 가까이 올 때마다 자세가 뻣뻣해졌어요

전혀 아니거든요

런던에 있었을 때 형이 당신과
자려고 했다는 의심이 들던데

- 그랬나요?
- 아뇨

비신사적인 접근을 했나요?

그런 일 없었고, 당신이 그런 말을

할 수 있단 게 놀랍네요

형이 백혈병에 걸렸었고

당신에게 말하지 않았어요

나한테 그런 일이 있었다면 난 상처받고

화나고 슬프고 걱정됐을 거에요

짜증나요

짜증이요?

엄청나게

물론 마이크로프트의 영적 각성은

병 때문이죠

진부한 표현을 쓰지도 않았고

정면충돌도 하지 않았어요

안녕

늦은 시간인 것 알지만 실례할게

정말

미안하다

너한테 말했어야했어

골수가 필요했어

형제가 가장 일치할 가능성이 높지

지금은 고집부리지 않을게

나는..내 병이

날 배려심이 깊은, 더 나은 사람으로

- 만들 거라 생각했어
- 물론 그러시겠지

모든 부패한 인간들이 아플 때마다

하는 말을 똑같이 하고 있어

많은 사람들이 같은 일을 겪지만

그렇다고 현실이 아닌 건 아니야

중독자들도 같을 거라고

생각한다만

넌 나이젤라가 어떻게 나와
연락이 됐는지 물었지

내가 진단을 받았을 때

나이젤라가 연락을 해서

어떻게든 돕고 싶다고 했었다

내가 골수이식 공여자를 찾는 걸 알고

찾기 위한 조직을 만들었어

상류층 사람들을 모아 모임을 만들고

직접 만나러 다녔어

덕분에 맞는 사람을 찾았어

도움을 받았으니 갚아야겠군

그래. 내가 하려던 게 그거야

어쨌든, 나이젤라의 인성에
대한 문제가 아니야

너와 나에 관한 일이야

우리가 그녈 도우면,
우리 사이의 일은 모두

넣어둘 수 있어

그래도 계속 고집을 부리겠다면

단지 살인사건을 해결하는 거라고
네 자신에게 말하든지

벨 형사님이 2명의 자문 탐정님이

오신다고 했는데요

2명이 맞고, 식당 주인이 같이 왔어요

실버 블레이즈를 NYPD 마굿간으로
옮긴다고 하시던데요

네, 추가 공격에 대비하기 위한

최선의 방법이니까요

그래서 여기서 무슨 일이 있었죠?

철저하게 해요

달튼 래드는 저기에 차를 세웠어요

친구인 에이사와 술을 마셨었고

달튼이 말에게 주사를 놓으러가고
친구는 차에서 기다렸다고 했어요

자물쇠를 열려는 사람을 발견했는데

에이사 말로는 6피트(182cm)정도였지만

자세히는 보지 못했답니다

총을 2발 쏘고 도망치면서 가방을 놓고 갔어요

주인은 자려고 하다가

총성을 듣고

엽총을 들고 나왔지만

그 때 이미 범인은

저 나무가 있는 곳까지 갔답니다

자물쇠에 지문이 남아있었나요?

네. 너무 많아요

항상 드나드는 사람이 많아서

쓸만한 지문은 없어요

그래서, 주인이 범인을 쫓아갔답니까?

네

1/4마일(400미터)정도 따라갔는데

숲의 공터에 갈 때까지 쫓아갔는데

그 쯤에서 갑자기 사라졌답니다

미안한데, 저기 좀

시야에 방해가 되거든

장난하냐
난 여기 그냥 서있었어

그래. 그게 문제야

그 공터로 가볼 수 있을까요?

말씀드렸듯이, 주인이 범인을 여기까지 쫓아왔지만

여기서 갑자기 사라졌다고 했어요

범인이 얼마나 앞서있었다고 했죠?

주인 말로는 100야드(90미터)정도였답니다

범인이 저 들판을 가로질러
갈 시간은 없었을테지만

제 생각엔

주인이 생각보다 훨씬 뒤에 있었을 것 같아요

네, 그런 가설도 있을수 있죠

또 다른 가설은
사라진 게 아니라

더 높은 곳으로 올라가서

자길 쫓아오는 사람이 몇 명인지 보고

도망칠 계획을 세웠단 겁니다

이 나무들은 100년도 더 되어 보이는데

매달릴 낮은 가지가 없어요

하지만 이 어린 오크나무는 가능하죠

가지에 매달려서 올라갔을 거에요

그래요, 이 가지를 잡아야만 했단 말이죠

좋았어

운이 좋게도, 윗쪽
나무 껍질이 부드럽네요

이게 살인범의 지문이라는 데 걸겠어요

하나가 빠졌는데

우리가 찾을 사람은

왼손 약지가 없는 사람이에요

체포되기 전에 보러갈까요?

자, 그럼 말 암살기도자를

출전시켜볼까요?

마이크로프트, 운송수단 이상의

유용함을 보이고 싶으면

기록을 해도 좋아

얼스터 카운티 경찰이

가방 안을 봐도 되지만,
가져가선 안 된다고 했어

그래, 질문이 안 좋아서 그래

네가 증거를 가져가길 원한다고 말하면

경찰들은 자기 영역을 주장할 수 있지

범죄를 해결하기 위해 쓰는 건 아니었을 거야

만능열쇠 2세트

매우 큰 나이프 1개

테이프로 감긴 주사기 3개와

얼스터 카운티 지도

지도에 날카롭게 눌린 자국이 있어요

2501.

주소일까요?

별 소용 없어보여요

보통 일이 아닌 것 같아요

지문이 일치하는 걸 찾았는데

사람이 아니라 사건이었어요

사건들이죠, 정확히는

검지의 지문은

13건의 살인사건에서

발견된 것과 같아요

네?

2개의 집단 살인이었어요

마약단속국에선 로블레스 카르텔과

자립을 주장한 지부들 사이의

분쟁으로 인한 것으로 보고 있어요

두 사건 모두 로블레스의 암살자인

"엘 메카니코"의 소행으로 보여요

후작부인과 연락 돼?

왜 마약상이 그녀의 말을

죽이려고 했는지 엄청 궁금해졌어

엘 메카니코에 대해 다른 정보는 없나요?

별로 없어요

첫번째 대학살은 탬파의 항구에서 일어났어요

총격이 시작됐을 때 배를 청소하던

민간인이 있었는데

생김새에 대해 진술을 했지만

이후 종적이 사라졌어요

나이젤라가 자기 호텔로
보러 와도 좋다는구나

서트너에 있고

스위트 2501호래

여보세요

나이젤라, 잘 들어

달튼을 살해한 사람이
너도 노리고 있어

뭐라고?

이상한 사람 못봤어?

방으로 배달된 거라든지

없어,없었어

매우 평화로워

야경을 보고 있었어

커튼 열어놨어?

응, 하나만

다른 방으로 가는 게 좋겠어

왜?

당연히 로블레스 카르텔에는
아는 사람 없어요

난 귀족이에요

왜 날 죽이려는지도 모르겠어요

도대체 무슨 일인지 모르겠어요

남자친구는 어떨까요?

카르텔쪽과 사업을 했는데

- 당신에게 숨겼다든지
- 달튼은 2000년부터 2004년까지

장거리 장애물 경주의
국가대표 후보였어요

그녀 방식의 '아니오'라는 표현입니다

다른 고용인들은 어떨까요?

거짓말하고 있어요

난 미스 메이슨이 저질이란 걸 알고 있어요

당신은 이 사람들의 분노를 유발했고

솔직한 의견 차이를 보여주지 않았어

우리 장부, 기록 어떤 것이든 다 보셔도 좋아요

하지만 그 폭력배들과 난
아무 상관 없어요

이게 뭐야

스페어 타이어로서 남은 시간을 쓰고 있어

내 스스로 유능함을 보여주고 싶어서

너와 조앤은 앉아서 밥을 먹지 않더구나

고의로 그런 거야
긴 식사는

특히 사건 중간에는, 사치야

대화가 사치라고 생각하냐

식사 자체가 사치야

대화는 사치 속의 짜증이고

네가 내일을 방해하지 않으려는

시간에 악의는 없어보이네

별 말씀을

그래서

뭘 더 알아냈니?

경찰은 호아퀸 아귈라라는 사람이

로블레스 카르텔의 동해안 지부장으로 보고 있어

그 조직은 항상 하나 이상의
라이벌과 다투는 중이라

그 남자도 거의 대중에 노출되진 않았어

사실, 지난 2년간 딱 6번 노출됐지

항상 Aqueduct 경마장의 특별석에 나왔었어

- 승마인이로군
-열정적이지

여기서 밝혀진 나쁜 버릇이 있어

거기에 대비해야해

넌 나이젤라가 변했다는
생각을 정말 믿나봐

내 경험에 따르면 변화는 조잡하지만

과정일 뿐 절대적인 상태는 아니야

넌 왜 나이젤라가 네 도움을 받을만큼

좋은 사람이라고 생각하니?

뭐하는 거냐

그냥 갑자기 하고 싶어서

음!

지금까지 먹어본 것 중에
최고의 리조또네요

왜 주방장을 고용해요?
직접 해요

레스토랑 경영이 더 재밌으니까요

일을 덜 하겠단 말이겠지

그래. 그렇게 말할 줄 알았다

다 큰 성인한테 이런 말을 하게 될 줄이야

네 음식 식겠다

훌륭해

방금 법정 회계사에게 답장을 받았는데

내가 전에 누드 셀카 때문에

도와준 적이 있는 사람인데, 암튼

내 예상을 확인시켜줬어

호아퀸 아퀼라는 두 말 중 하나가

뛰고 있을 때 경마장에 왔고

두 동물은 매리어티 농장 소유였고

뉴저지의 경마 시설에서 훈련을 받았어

매리어티 농장은, 방금 알아보기론

초기 종자돈을 유한책임회사에서 받았는데

망간 채광과 통조림사업을
보유하고 있는 회사였어

그 기업은 3번이나

마약단속국에 조사를 받았고

오랫동안 로블레스 카르텔의 위장기업으로

의심받는 곳이었어

호아퀸 아귈라가 이 말들의

진짜 주인이라고 생각해요?

그림자 주인이죠

경마에서 항상 있었던 일이에요

이걸 봐요

이건 매리어티 농장의 말 명단이고

이건
후작부인이 종마번식을 시작한 이후의

실버 블레이즈의 상대 파트너 명단이에요

"Twice for No"가 두 명단에 있네요

호아퀸 아귈라는 암말 중
한 마리를 임신시키기 위해

돈을 냈어요
나이젤라의 기록이 필요해요

수컷이 태어난 짝짓기,
건강하게 태어났고

제 삼자에게 팔림

이상하네요

챔피언과의 교배를 위해
돈을 지불했잖아요

왜 새끼를 팔았을까요?

궁금하네

망아지는 롱 아일랜드의 마굿간에 있으니까

보러 가자고 해야겠네요

하지만 아침까진 기다려야지?

그러니 이제 앉아서 후식을 좀 먹지 않으련?

음?

좋아

아, 미안한데 난 못하겠어

너무 긴장감이 강해

무슨 소리예요? 전혀 없어요

좋은 시간을 보내고 있잖니

농담이겠죠
왓슨의 견갑골 사이엔

긴장감이 가득해요. 승모근은

떨리고, 삼각근까지 전달돼요

내 등은 괜찮아요

둘이 런던에서 무슨 일이 있었던 거야?

이번 일은 좋은 생각이 아니었나보구나

동석해줘서 고마웠어요

도대체 왜 그래요?

형이 가버렸잖아요

당신 형제사이를 바로잡을

기회였는데 당신이 날려버렸어요

하지마 난 틀리지 않았어요

형이 있어서 당신은 불편했어요

마이크로프트 때문에 불편하지 않았어요

당신과 마이크로프트가 같이 있어서 불안했던 거지

왜요?

당신이 상관할 바 아니죠

하지만 당신은 이상하고
난 당신과 형의 관계가

다시 망가지길 바라지 않아요

좋아요, 우린 저녁을 먹었고
그가 나에게 관심이 있다고

생각했었기 때문에
약간 긴장했었지만

그냥 나와 대화를 하고
싶어했단 걸 알게 됐어요

그는 진심이었고, 친절하고

- 재밌기도 했어요
- 오 마이 갓

난 런던에 있었고
난 그가 여기 오는지도 몰랐어요

형하고 잤군요

자발적으로?

좋아요, 그렇게 밀어붙인다면
알려줄게요

두명의 성인이 동의 하에
침대에서 같이 보냈어요

됐어요? 형과 관계를

망치든 말든 맘대로 해요

당신 선택이죠

왓슨, 난 당신의 성생활에
간섭하지 않기로 결정했어요

당신 말대로
당신은 성인이니까요

너한텐 실망했어

네가 이런 쪼잔한 복수를

실행에 옮길 줄 알았어

복수 아니었어

두 사람에게 질문이 있어요

지금도 지속된 관계인가요?

만약 그렇다면 그에 따른 계획을 세워야하니까요

그런 얘기도 없었군요

즉흥적이었던 거죠?

그럴 수도 있죠

딱 하나만 물어볼게요
그가 어떤 게 좋아요?

형이요

섹스에 재능이 있어요?

마이크로프트, 왓슨에 대한 네 생각은?

정말 놀랐어요, 아직 실버블레이즈와

"Twice for No"사이의 망아지를

아직 경매에 올리지도 않았거든요

이 꼬마는 저희에게 큰 재산이죠

여기 있어요, 넛멕

키운다면 인생에 좋은 친구가 될 거에요

안녕, 넛멕

왜 NYPD에서 망아지에

관심을 보이는지 말해주실 수 있나요?

복잡한 사연이 있죠

영국 귀족과

농축 칼륨이 든 주사기와

13건의 마약관련 살인이 얽혀있는

뭘 봐야하는지 말해줄래요?

Whorls.(눈썹가마)
Whirls?(소용돌이)

눈썹가마- 다른 부분과는

반대방향으로 자라는 털 뭉치들이죠

잠깐이면 돼요

참을성있게 기다리기 힘들다면

시간을 보낼 다른 일을 찾아도 돼요

형하고 섹스를 한다든지

"내가 말한대로"라고는
기쁘게 말하진 못하겠지만

나이젤라 메이슨은 지독한 마녀야

기쁘지 않다면서 넌
왜 그렇게 만족스러워하지?

왜냐면 호아퀸 아귈라가 왜

나이젤라에게 화가 났는지 알았으니까

후작부인을 불러

말의 눈썹가마 위치는

유전에 따라 결정된다는

여러 연구 결과에 대해 알고 있었지?

뭐라고?

그 뻣뻣한 털들의 위치는 유전이 돼

왜 그런 말을 나한테 하는데?

많은 사람들이 찾았던 게 아니지만

진실이 드러났거든

내가 보여주지

이건

실버 블레이즈의 사진이야

보이지

눈 사이에 똑바로 가마가 있어

최근에 실버 블레이즈의 아들을

낳았다는 Twice for No도 마찬가지야

그럼, 자연법칙에 따르면 그들의

자식에게도 눈 사이에 같은 가마가 있어야해

오늘 아침에 이 꼬마를 보러 갔어

넛멕은 눈 위에 가마가 위치해 있었어

이때 적절한 질문이 떠오르더군

진짜 실버 블레이즈에게 무슨 일이 있었을까?

죽었나?

죽었냐고?

어제 직접 봤잖아

어제 봤던 말은
실버 블레이즈와 비슷하게 생겼지

하지만 우리 둘다 알다시피

말의 교배기회 한 번에
10만유로 이상을 받아쳐먹는 건

가짜야

내가 실버 블레이즈를 갖기 위해서 치뤄야했던

싸움에 대해선 전혀 모를 거야

후작과의 혼전 계약서도 포함해서

왜 그 남자의 거짓말에 바친

내 인생은 봐주지 않는 거야?

네 결혼은 22개월동안이었어

그래, 그리고 난 힘들게

말을 얻었어, 믿어줘

말들을 얻었지

물론, 소유권을 가진 후

10주만에

갑자기 날벼락을 맞았지만

새벽 3시에 심부전이었어

그래서 대신 돈을 굴릴 계획을 세웠던 거로군

그 가짜는 어디서 났어?

실버 블레이즈에게 형제가 있어

성적은 별로였지만

생김새는 거의 비슷하니까

수백파운드에 사서

털을 약간 염색을 시켰어

염색이요? 사람들에게

수십만달러를 받았잖아요

진짜 말인지에 대한 증거를 요구하지 않았어요?

네. 경마의 세계는

항상 조금 뒤쳐져있거든요

번식장에서는

암말에 대해선 철저한 검사를 해요

병이 있는지

교배 중에 공격성을 보이지는 않을지

그리고 모든 사람들이

실버 블레이즈가 내 말인 걸 알고 있어요

유전자 검사를 요구했었는데

사체를 묻기 전에
털과 혈액을 채취해뒀었어요

사실, 별 문제는 없었어요

당신들이 처음 알아낸 사람들이죠

우리가 처음이 아니야

호아퀸 아귈라도 알고 있어

하지만 너한테 알리지 않았지

그의 암말에서 태어난 망아지의 가치는 형편없었어

그래서 마약상들이 하던 대로 했어

복수를 계획했지

말을 독살시키려고했어

그리고 말이 죽은 걸 목격한 며칠 후에

너와 네 배우자에게 나타날 계획이었겠지

달튼

내가 한 일을 경찰에 말할 거야?

알았어, 홈즈 형제의 자비에 감사해

마약 거래가 있단 걸 알았어요

그래서 숨어있었어요

총성이 들린 후에도

사람들이 소리지르는 걸 듣고

도망치다가 그를 봤어요

조각상처럼 앉아있었어요

눈은..

모르겠어요

그냥 차가웠어요

북극처럼요

엘 메카니코의 유일한 목격자가

도움도 안 되는 은유만 쏟아내네요

아직도 마이크로프트 때문에 뚱해있어요?

아뇨

당신은 나한테 사과하지 않겠죠

만약 나한테 자매가 있었으면 당신은

걔랑 자기 전에 망설였을까요?

날 멈추게 하는 건 행위 자체가 아니에요

전후 사정을 못 견디는 거죠

어떤.. 친밀감은

우리 파트너쉽의 부산물이죠

우리가 같이 일을 잘 하는 것

그 사실에 가치가 있다고 생각해요

맞죠?

당신이 형과 잤단 사실을 내가

추론해낼 거란 걸 알고 있었어요

당신답지 않게 마치 유리기처럼

고기능성 관계를 유도하려고 하네요

물론, 예상외로 정확하진 않았지만

너무 과하게 생각하는 것 같지 않아요?

당신은 나만 충격적이거나
특이한 행동을 하는 게

아니란 걸 입증하길 원했고

서로 각자 맡은 역할에만

복종하지 않으려 했어요

음

상황이 개선되서 기뻐요

메세지는 받아들였어요

메세지 같은 건 없어요

엄청난 은유를 고집하는 남자의 의도가

고의적으로 보이지 않아요?

무슨 말이죠?

난 그가 마치..

복수하는 것처럼 보였어요

복수라

자기 생각을 심어줄 뿐이지
묘사하고 있는 게 아니죠

난 마치 그가

복수하는 것처럼 보였어요

복수라

더 자세히 설명해주실래요?

당신 참 교활한 거 알아요?

왼손을 봐요

약지가 없어요

달튼을 살해한 남자처럼요

대량살인의 목격자를 보고 있는 게 아니네요

그가 바로 범인이었어요

저사람이 엘 메카니코였어요

이 사람이 FBI가 수년동안 찾는 사람이라고?

그게 사실이라면 왜 일부러

이런 진술을 한 거지?

아마 그가 도망치기 전에

경찰이 먼저 현장에 도착한 것 같아요

거짓 진술을 해야만 했겠죠

우린 매우 교활한 범죄자를 상대하고 있어요

안전 장치로 이 진술을 남긴 겁니다

경찰을 맞닥뜨렸을 때, 카르텔의

암살자의 생김새에 대해 모두에게

선입관을 심어줄 이야기를 만들어냈어요

마약단속국이 신화를 쫓게 만들었어요

이 사람이 왼손 약지가 없단 걸

아무도 몰랐나?

일부 부분 지문만 얻었으니까요

우리가 달튼의 살해현장에서

지문을 얻을 때까지는 범인의

손가락이 4개인 줄 아무도 몰랐어요

그 사람입니다

엘 메카니코를 찾았어요

맞는지 확인해봐요

전에 자기 이름을 켄트 젠킨스라고 했어요

가명일 거라고 추측되지만

외모와 그 이상을 알고는 있지만

무슨 혐의로 수갑을 채워야할까요

우린 그의 외모를 알고
뭘 원하는지도 알고 있어요

엘 메카니코는 아주 철두철미해요

나이젤라를 살해하려고 접근했었으니까

다시 시도해서 성공시키려고 할 겁니다

민간인을 미끼로 쓰지 않네

직접 노출을 시킬 필요는 없어요

아니죠

분명 나이젤라의 움직임을
감시하고 있겠죠

가장 간단한 방법은

통화내용을 도청하는 거죠

50파운드(8만5천원정도)만 지불하면

누구든 무선통화 내용을

도청장치를 살 수 있어요

그래서 휴대폰을 쓰지 말라고 말했군요

네

그럼, 만약 나이젤라가 실수를 한다면요?

메이슨은 친구에게

5시15분전에 바에 있겠다고 했다

범인은 그보다 먼저 나타날 것으로 예상된다

대기해라

실행하기 전에 이곳의

지형을 파악하길 원할 것이다

이봐

움직이지마

손 등 뒤로 돌려

엎드려

엘 메카니코로 다시
의심하지 않으면 고맙겠어요

그는 정규직을 가진 민간인입니다

호아퀸 아귈라의 위장회사의 직원이더군요

고맙다

찾았단 문자 보내줘서

엘 메카니코의 진짜 이름은 키이스 뉴월이고

지금은 그의 변호사가 부럽지 않아

당신의 "정규직" 의뢰인은

우리가 구금당시
1만달러짜리 총을 들고 있었어요

정식 등록된 총기입니다

마약단속국에 거짓말을 하는

영상을 갖고 있습니다

그게 제 의뢰인이라는 확신이 들지 않네요

3곳의 살해현장에서

그의 지문을 발견했어요

이제 직접 진술을 해야할 때가 됐군요

대량학살범을 잡았구나

10년동안 사람들이 잡으려던 놈인데

잘했다

그리고 고맙구나

무슨 일이죠?

곧 돌아오죠

지문조회 결과를 받았는데

무슨 문제 있어요?

저 사람의 지문과 현장에서

발견된 지문을 비교했는데

일치하지 않아요

- 네?
-비슷하지도 않아요

- 아뇨, 실수일 겁니다
- 3번이나 검사했어요

다시 해요. 영상에서 거짓말을 하고

왼손 약지가 없으며

성능좋은 권총으로

나이젤라를 살해하려던 놈이잖아요

홈즈, 듣고있나?
지문이 다르다니까

무단침입으로 넣을 순 있지만

곧 보석으로 풀려나겠지

풀어줘야만 하네

네 일에 해를 끼친 모양이구나

방해였지

- 응?
- 아니, 말하고 싶은 건

훌륭한 사건이었다는 거야

진짜 범인을 잡았다고 생각했거든

틀려서 좌절했겠지만

교차로에 다다르긴 했지만

틀리진 않았어
키이스 뉴월이 엘 메카니코야

지문이 틀리잖니

풀어야할 문제지

딱 하나의 생각 밖에 안 나

그 말은 우리가 조사해야할 것도

하나 뿐이란 말이죠

지문 위조

지문 위조요?

딱 맞아요

엘 메카니코는 위험한 일을 하는
매우 주의깊은 사람이에요

오늘과 같은 일에 대비한 마지막 방어선으로

가짜 지문들을 갖고 있단 거죠

알겠어요, 하지만 가짜 지문이라뇨

가능하긴 할까요?

네, 물론이죠

뒷동네에서는 가끔 있어요

최고의 셋트를 만들려면

고성능 카메라와

산업용 화학실험실이 필요하고

이상적으로, 다른 사람의 손이 필요하죠

엘 메카니코는 카르텔을 위해 일하니까

돈 걱정은 없을테고

잘린 손이야 넘치게 많겠죠

그래요, 만들었을 겁니다
가짜 지문

지문이 경찰에 발각되자

가짜지문을 벗어야만 했어요

왜 싱글 스틱으로 날 찔러보는데요?

형이 당신과 같이 있는 건 아닌지

확인해보는 중이니까요

나 혼자 있어요

지금 형에게 연락해야해요

데닝으로 가요

데닝은 왜요?

키스 뉴월이 살고 있는 곳이니까요

왜 거길 가야하는데요?

마약단속국 보고서에

엘 메카니코의 현장 세군데서

부분 지문만 발견된 것 알고 있죠?

2건의 살인이라고 생각했어요

2명의 살인, 3건의 범죄

주류점 강도 사건 현장에서

같은 지문이 나왔어요?

스트로독 와인을 몽땅 훔쳐갔네요

말도 안 돼요

뉴월, 아니 엘 메카니코든 뭐든간에

십억을 버는 사람이고

돈 걱정이 없는데

그런 싸구려 술을 마실 것 같진 않아요

그렇더라도 돈을 내겠죠

그래서 하나의 가설에 도달했어요

뉴월은 대학살 동안

다른 사람의 지문을 덮고 있었다

하지만 도둑질은 하지 않았어요

첫 살인 6개월 전에 도난 사건이 있었어요

지문의 원래 주인이 저지른 사건이었고

엘 메카니코에게 손을 기증했지만

자발적으로 한 건 아닐테죠

용의자는요?

아무 언급이 없어요

당시 사건을 맡은 보안관은

머지않아 은퇴했지만
우리를 만나주기로 했어요

당신들이 말하는 사건은 기억나지만

사건이라고 할 만한 일은 아니었어요

왜요?

스트로독을 훔쳐갔어요

스트로독만요

당시 동네엔 노숙자들이 있었는데

10명인가 12명인가 됐고
내가 그들을 감시했어요

난 보안관이었고
그게 내가 할 일이었으니까요

슐츠의 주류점이 털리기 한두달 전에

새로 들어온 사람이 있었어요

제드 뭐였는데, 성이 기억이 안 나지만

모두들 그를 "스트로독 제드"라고 불렀어요

주차장에서 자고 구걸하면서

하루를 보내는 녀석이었어요

난 그를 잡으러 갔고

열리지도 않은 스트로독 병들을 발견했지만

제드는 없었어요

가게를 털고 나서

떠났나보다 했어요

이상하네요.그쵸?

스트로독 제드라는 사람이

자기가 좋아하는 술을 많이 훔치고는

그냥 두고 떠났다고요?

그의 술친구는 이상하다고 생각하더군요

제드에게 무슨 일이 생긴 게 틀림없다고 했어요

그가 잠자던 곳

저희를 안내해주실 수 있을까요?

개발자금으로 재개발이 많이 됐어요

5년 전에 공원이 조성됐죠

제드가 자던 곳은 어딥니까?

아마

저쪽이었어요

주차장이 바뀌기 전에 땅은 어땠나요?

잔디였나요?

잡초가 조금 있었나
달리 말하면

척박한 흙만 있었어요

훌륭해요

왜 훌륭한데요?

주차장이 공원이 되면서

모든 나무가 비슷하게 심어졌어요

모두 나이가 같아요

이 오크나무만 빼고요

이 나무도 다른 나무와 나이가 같지만

더 크고 더 무성하고

더 건강해요

다른 나무보다 더 잘 먹었나봐요

정확해요

흙 속에 추가 영양을 공급해주는 게 있어요

그 밑에 묻힌 게 있다고 생각하는군요

경찰과 땅 파줄 사람을 불러야겠어요

우린 스트로독 제드의 무덤 앞에

서있는 게 틀림없지만

뉴월씨, 뉴욕시를 대표하여

지문과 DNA 샘플 제공에

협조해 주셔서 감사합니다

우린 로블레스 카르텔과 연관된

대학살과 연관시킬 수는 없었습니다

당신의 시간을 뺏은 점에 대해서

사과드리겠습니다

감사합니다

하지만, 뉴욕의 데닝지역 경찰의

연락을 받았습니다

제드 아이센이라는 남자의

실종에 대해 새 단서를 찾았습니다

아마 스트로독 제드라고 기억하겠네요

살해당한 것으로 밝혀졌고

동네의 땅 속에 묻었더군요

손이 없는 채로

하지만 아이센씨가 묻힌 곳에서

다른 사람의 머리카락을 찾았습니다

누구의 DNA와 일치했을까요?

양형거래에 따라

뉴욕시는 키스 뉴월이
로블레스 카르텔에 고용된

암살자임을 자백했다고 발표했습니다

정확히 몇 명을 살해했는지는 밝혀지지 않았으나

Hi.

셜록을 만나러 왔어요

곧 올 거에요

주방장을 고용했어요

레스토랑에

잘됐네요

개업전까지 메뉴를 다듬을 계획이죠

축하해요

고마워요

혹시

개업식에 오실 수 있을까요?

정말 좋겠네요. 전...

복잡한 문제인 건 아시죠?

저기

런던에 있었던 일이 아니라도 전 당신을

특별한 사람이라고 생각해요

내 동생의 인생을 도와줘서 정말 고마워요

그리고 저와 당신은 아무래도

친구로 지냈으면 해요

후작부인

호아퀸 아귈라의 변호사에게

연락을 한 사실을 듣고 기뻤을 거야

당신이 다치지 않게 하기 위해서

아귈라가 사기당한 혈통을
가진 망아지에 대해

알고 있단 사실을 알렸어

손해를 줄일 거라고 확신해

당신은 안전해

고마워

그럼 나는?

형이 결정할 문제야

당신은 이 순간부터

종마 사업에서 퇴출이야

나에 대해 보고 안할 거지?

안 했어

당신 기록을 봤어

달튼의 사망으로 받는 보험과

저축으로, 사기 피해자에게

돌려줄 돈은 충분할 거야

호아퀸 아귈라가 준 돈을 갖고 있을 수도 있어

새로 투자를 해서 더 존경받는 삶을 시작하길 바랄게

셜록과 나는 물론,
배상금을 감독할 거야

고마워

다시 만나서 좋았어, 나이젤라

하지만 너와 함께 하는 것보단

내 동생과 커피를 마시고 싶어

그 날들에 대해선 말하지 않을 거야

그래

우리 과거에 대해

-미화할 생각도 없어
- 전적으로 동의한다

그럼 우리에게 남은 게 뭐지?

무슨 말을 하고 싶은 거냐?

Let's do open discussion
before we wrap up.

I have kind of a, uh,

different topic in mind.

Craziest thoughts
about your disease?

You know what I mean.

You know they're nuts,

but they just keep popping
into your head anyway.

I often wonder if I should have
been born in another time.

Sorry, my name is Sherlock,
and I'm an addict.

Hi, Sherlock.

My-my...

My senses are unusually--

well, one could even say
unnaturally-- keen.

And ours is an era
of distraction.

It's, uh, a punishing drumbeat

of constant input.

This-this cacophony

which follows us into our homes

and into our beds

and seeps into our...

into our souls,

for want of a better word.

For a long time, uh,

there was only one poultice
for my raw nerve endings,

and that was,
uh, copious drug use.

So in my less
productive moments,

I'm given to wonder...

...if I'd just been born
when it was a little...

quieter out there,

would I have even become
an addict in the first place?

Might I have been more focused?

A more fully realized person?

What, like Ancient Greece?

You any idea what passed

for dental care
in the Hellenic era?

No, no, I'd, um,

I'd want some of the wonders
of modernity.

Just before everything got...

amplified.

Something like what?

200 years ago?

Mycroft.

Web site said
it was an open meeting.

I came to support my brother,
so please go on.

It's-it's fascinating.

No. I, uh,

I-I'm so sorry.

Sorry.

Hey, you leaving early?

Did you really mean
what you said in there

or were you just
winding them up?

Mycroft.
I wouldn't have said anything at all

if I'd known the meeting
was compromised.

Explain yourself!
Your maid told me you'd gone out.

I wheedled her a bit
to find out where.

You live in England!
Did you know they've invented

a flying conveyance capable
of hurtling its passengers

vast distances.

Ha.
Joan, delighted to see you.

Oh, sorry.

Oh, dear.

Um, so what are you doing
in New York?

I planned to fly out next month.

We're opening a branch

of my restaurant Diogenes
in Tribeca.

I intended to give you

plenty of warning, of course,

but, um, circumstances
brought me here earlier.

Circumstances?

Yes, a good friend of ours

is in a bit of trouble,
Sherlock.

We haven't got any
mutual friends.

Acquaintance, then, might be
a better way of putting it.

I'd like to explain it to you

over dinner.
Oh.

So we're planning on taking

a couple of reservations
a night.

The rest we'll fill
with walk-ins.

I want the place
to be spontaneous, playful.

Qualities you'll no doubt be
charging through the nose for.

Oh, I think it's breathtaking.

Thank you.
Once we've set the menu,

we should be open
in a couple of weeks.

I'm meeting with a couple

of young chefs while I'm here.

I want to find a new voice.

Of course.

"Old acquaintance"?

Are you joking?

Yes, well,
I thought it best explained

by herself.

Sherlock Holmes,
you look dashing as ever.

Do let me know when you decide
to start aging, won't you?

Well, I wasn't told you'd be here.
Oh.

Joan Watson, this
is Nigella Mason.

She's my brother's
former fiancee.

Oh. Oh.

It's nice to meet you.

Lovely to meet you.

Shall we?
Yes.

I'm confused.

Didn't you and your
brother's fiancee...

What? Copulate?

Engage in several bouts
of vigorous sex?

Yes, yes, we did.

♪ Elementary 2x07 ♪
The Marchioness
Original Air Date on November 7, 2013

The plates are designed
to be shared,

but pace yourself, okay?

I've got a lot
of food back there.

I know we're not serving
alcohol today.

Are there any other
dietary restrictions?

I lose my appetite

in the company
of social-climbing trollops.

Uh, no.

Thank you, we're fine.

I realize there's been

some awkwardness
between the three of us.

I seduced you within
weeks of your wedding

and exposed your true
character to Mycroft.

I cannot imagine how you've
managed to worm your way

back into his life.

It's complicated, Sherlock.

A year after my difficulties

with Mycroft, I fell in
love with and married

a man by the name
of Robert Suffolk.

He's also known by his title,

the Marquess of Loudwater.

"Marquess"?

It's mid-level nobility.

It's smack between
an earl and a duke.

Oh, so that makes you a, um...

Marchioness of Loudwater, yes.

I retain my title though
I no longer retain my husband.

The marquess turned out

to be not as advertised.

Not terribly interested
in holding up

his end of the conjugal side,
if you follow.

So...

I turned, in my loneliness,
to Dalton,

the man in charge of Robert's
stable of racehorses.

I won't bore you
with the details,

but private investigators
were hired,

photographs were taken,
and the usual ugliness ensued.

Do you see, finally,

the magnitude of the
favor that I did you?

While Robert
and I were courting,

I fell quite in love
with one of his horses,

a champion stallion
named Silver Blaze,

and thanks to the crafty work
of my lawyers,

I came out of my marriage
with my title

and ownership
of Silver Blaze.

Now, he can't race anymore,
you understand.

He's too old,

but there is a thriving demand
for his studly services.

So you've become a horse pimp?

How fitting. Must be lucrative.

Silver Blaze is being stabled
in Ulster County at the moment.

The other night,

Dalton was coming
to the stables

to give the animal
his usual medication.

He had a friend in the car,
and according to him,

Dalton came upon a man who was
trying to break in the stables.

Dalton confronted the burglar,

and the man shot him.

He died at the scene.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you.

It's been awful.

When the murderer fled,

he left behind
a bag of supplies.

The police found a syringe full

of concentrated potassium,

and they believe
that Dalton's killer

tended to poison Silver Blaze.

So you want us to find him
and protect your meal ticket?

And get justice for Dalton.

Look, I realize that I've made
some mistakes in my life,

but I have made efforts
to improve myself,

and when Mycroft fell sick,

he found a way
to forgive me.

Uh, Nigella, please.

And I believe
that you can do the same.

Oh, you didn't realize
that Mycroft was sick?

Spot of leukemia.

Bone marrow transplant.

I'm better now.

I tried to find different ways
to tell you.

It just never happened.

I'm sincerely sorry
for your troubles.

But...

this is an awful,
toxic creature.

Fortunately, I don't need
to sleep with her again

to get her out of my life,
I just need to leave.

Marchioness.

Looking for
something to solve?

My brother
makes you uncomfortable.

Your posture stiffens subtly
whenever he gets close.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't.
I suspected

he would try to sleep with you
while we were in London,

Is that what happened?
No.

Were his advances ungentlemanly
in some way?

There were no advances,
and I can't believe

that's what
you want to talk about.

Your brother had leukemia,

and he didn't tell you
about it.

I know if that happened to me,
I would be hurt

and furious and sad and worried.

I feel annoyed.

Annoyed?

Profoundly.

Of course Mycroft's
spiritual awakening

is tied to some sort of illness.

The man has never met a cliche

he didn't have
a head-on collision with.

Hello.

I know it's late; I'm sorry.

Pleasant.

I owe you an apology.

Obviously, I should've told you.

You needed bone marrow.

A sibling is
the most likely match by far.

I'm trying
to be less stubborn now.

I think... I hope my illness

has made me
a more compassionate,

better person.
Well, of course you do.

You're following
the same narrative

all venal people do
when they get sick.

A lot of people may go
through the same thing,

but it doesn't make it
less real.

It's like an addiction
in that sense,

I'd imagine.

You asked how Nigella

got back into my life.

When I was diagnosed,

she got in touch,

asked if there was anything
she could do to help.

When she learned I was looking
for a bone marrow donor,

she organized a drive
to find one.

Turned it into a cause,
got the whole posh crowd

she was running
around with involved.

I found my match because of her.

One good turn deserves another.

Yes, I suppose it does.

In any case, I don't think

this is about the quality
of Nigella's character.

I think this is
about you and me.

If we help her,
it will prove tangibly

that we've put
this whole thing behind us.

Or if you're still
feeling stubborn,

you can just tell yourself
it's about solving a murder.

So, Detective Bell said
two NYPD consultants

would be coming out.

Two did; we brought
a restaurateur with us.

He also said
you'd be moving Silver Blaze

to the NYPD stables?

Yes, it seems the best way
to safeguard

against further
possible attacks.

So what happened here?

Be thorough.

Well, Dalton Ladd
parked his car there.

He'd been out for a drink
with his friend Asa,

who waited in the car

while Mr. Ladd went
to give the horse his shot.

He came upon a guy
trying to pick the lock.

Asa said he was about
six feet tall,

but he couldn't
see much more than that.

Guy fires twice, he takes off
and he leaves his bag.

Now, the owner had been
getting ready for bed.

He heard the gunshots.

He comes out with a shotgun,

but, by that time,
the killer

had reached
that tree line.

Were there any
prints on the lock?

Yeah. Too many.

People are in and out of here
all the time,

so no prints of value.

So, did the owner
pursue the gunman?

Yeah.

Stayed on him for
about a quarter mile,

till he reached
a clearing in the woods.

But when he got there,
the guy was just gone.

Sorry, it'd be bet...
could you just

stay out of the eye line here?

You're joking.
I was just standing here.

Yes, that's the problem.

Oh, could you show
us the clearing?

So, like I said,
the owner chased him this far.

But when he got here,
the guy was just gone.

How much of a lead
did the gunman have?

Well, the owner says he was
about a hundred yards behind.

I know-- there's no way
that the gunman

would've had time to make it
clear across the field.

But I figure...

the owner was further back from
the gunman than he thought.

Yes, that's one possible
explanation.

Another possible explanation

is that he didn't
disappear at all,

he just took
to higher ground,

to see how many people
were following him

and then planned
his escape.

These trees are over
a hundred years old.

There's no low-hanging branches.

But this young oak
would work.

He would have to hoist
himself up, off that branch.

Yes, which means
he had to grab it.

Right.

Fortunately,
the bark is smooth

on top.

There.

I'll wager these are the
fingerprints of our murderer.

There's one missing.

The man we're looking for

is missing the ring finger
from his left hand.

Should we see if he's
been arrested before?

Right. Let's see what
a would-be horse assassin

brings on his rounds,
shall we?

Mycroft,
if you'd like to be useful

as something other
than a means of transportation,

feel free to take notes.

That policeman in Ulster County

said we could look in the bag,
not take it away.

Yes, well, I find it
best not to ask.

They can get
quite territorial

when you say you want
to take evidence with you.

They certainly weren't using
it to solve any crimes.

Two sets of lock picks...

one very large knife...

three syringes
bundled in duct tape

and one map of Ulster County.

Map has pin impressions on it.

2501.

Maybe an address?

Not a useful one.

You guys are swimming
in some deep water here.

There's a hit
on your prints,

but it's not to a person,
it's to a crime.

A series of crimes,
actually.

The index fingerprint you found

matches partials
that were found

at the site of 13 murders.

What?!

They happened
in two batches.

Two mass shootings
the DEA thinks

are tied to a war
between the Robles cartel

and a couple lieutenants

who tried to go into
business for themselves.

In both cases, they believe
the shooter is a Robles assassin

nicknamed "El Mechanico."

Would you get in touch
with the Marchioness?

I would very much like
to ask her

why drug dealers want
to murder her horse.

What else do we know about
this El Mechanico?

Not much.

This first massacre happened
at a dock in Tampa.

There was a civilian
cleaning his boat

when the shots started flying.

He gave a description but...

no one's seen him since.

Nigella says we can
see her at her hotel.

She's at the Sutner.

Suite 2501.

Hello?

Nigella, listen
very carefully:

The same man who
killed Dalton Ladd

is targeting you.

What?!

Have you noticed
anyone unusual?

Any deliveries
to your room?

No, no, no.

It's been quite peaceful,
actually.

I've just been enjoying
the view.

Your curtains are open?

Yeah, just the one.

Would you kindly go into
another room at once?

Why?

For God sakes, of course

I don't know anybody
in the Robles cartel.

I'm in the peerage.

And I don't understand
why they'd want me dead.

I have no idea whatsoever.

All right, what about
your boyfriend?

You think it's possible he did
business with them and...

hid it from you?
Dalton was an alternate

on the national steeplechase
team in 2000 and 2004.

That's her way of saying no.

What about your
other employees?

She's lying.

I know Miss Mason to be
a woman of low character.

You've incurred
the wrath of these people,

and it wasn't through
an honest difference of opinion.

I will give you access
to all of our books,

records, anything--
but there is no connection

between these
vile people and me.

What's this?

I spent most of the day
as a spare wheel.

I thought I'd make
myself useful.

I know you and Joan rarely
sit down for a meal.

That's by design--
a lingering dinner,

especially in the midst of
a case, is an indulgence.

You think conversation's
an indulgence?

The meal itself
is an indulgence.

Conversation
is an annoyance

within an indulgence...

Well, I suppose
it's harmless enough.

As long as you don't try
to stop me from working.

You're welcome.

So...

did you learn anything?

The police believe a man
named Joaquin Aguilar

heads up the Robles cartel's
East Coast operations.

The cartel is always at odds
with one or another

of its rivals, so the man is
very rarely seen in public.

In fact,
he's only been spotted six times

in the last two years.

He's always at a private box
he maintains

at the Aqueduct
race track.

He's a horseman.
A passionate one.

There's bad behavior
to be unearthed here.

Be prepared for that.

You seem quite invested

in the idea
that Nigella has changed.

From what I can see,
change is sloppy.

It's a process,
not an absolute state.

Why are you so
invested

in the idea
that Nigella has to be

a good person
to deserve your help?

What are you doing?

Something has just
occurred to me.

Mmm!

This is the best risotto
I have ever had.

Why are you hiring a chef?
You should do it.

Owning restaurants
is a lot more fun.

Mm.

He means less work.

Yes, I suppose
you could say that.

I don't quite believe

I'm going to say this
to a grown man:

Your food's getting cold.

Brilliant.

I've just heard back from
a forensic accountant

I once helped
out of a spot of bother

involving a naked self-portrait
of himself-- anyway--

he's confirmed something
I already suspected.

I noticed that Joaquin Aguilar

comes to the race track when
one of two horses is racing--

both animals are owned by
Mariotti Farms,

it's a stable and training
facility in New Jersey.

Mariotti Farms,
I've just learned,

received its initial seed money

from a limited liability
corporation

with substantial holdings
in manganese mining

and canned foods.

The corporation has,
three times,

been investigated
by the DEA,

who have long suspected
it is a front for...

the Robles cartel.

You think Joaquin Aguilar

is the real money
behind those horses?

It's called shadow ownership.

Happens all the time
in racing.

Look at this...

This is a list of all the horses
owned by Mariotti Farms,

this...

is a list of all Silver Blaze's
sexual partners

since the Marchioness began
pimping him out.

"Twice for No"
is on both these lists.

Joaquin Aguilar paid to have
one of his mares impregnated

by Silver Blaze--
I need Nigella's records.

The pairing alleged to a male
offspring, born healthy,

who was then sold... to...

a third party.

That's weird.

He paid for a champion
to impregnate his horse.

Why would he just
sell off the baby?

It is curious.

The foal is housed
at a stables in Long Island,

so I say we go and have a look.

But not till
the morning, right?

So does this mean that
you can actually sit down

and have some dessert?

Hmm?

Excellent.

Ah, sorry, I can't do this.

There's just too much tension.

What are you talking about?
There's no tension.

We're having
a nice time.

You must be joking.
Watson carries unease

between her shoulder blades.
Her trapezius muscles

are in knots,
and it's carrying over

to her deltoids.
My back is fine.

What happened
between you two in London?

I'm not so sure

this is a good idea.

Thank you for
your company.

What is the matter with you?

Your brother is
reaching out to you.

You guys have a chance

to fix things,
and you're wasting it.

I'm not wrong, though.

You're uncomfortable
in his presence.

I am not uncomfortable
around Mycroft.

I am uncomfortable around you
and Mycroft together.

For what reason?

This is none of your business.

But you're being weird

and I don't
want you to wreck

your relationship with
your brother-- again.

Okay, we had dinner...
I was a little bit nervous

because I thought he was
gonna hit on me,

but it became obvious that he
just wanted to talk about you.

He was sincere and sweet

and he's funny, too.
Oh, my God.

I was in London-- I didn't know
he was gonna come here.

You had sex with my brother.

Willingly?

Great-- you had to push,
so now you know.

Two consenting adults
went to bed together.

Okay?
You can let that

ruin your relationship
with your brother, or not.

Your call.

Watson, I've decided not to hold
your dalliance against you.

As you said,
you're a grown woman.

I'm disappointed in you.

I thought you were attempting

to move beyond
petty revenge tactics.

It wasn't revenge.

I-I have just one question
for the both of you.

Is this going to be
an ongoing arrangement?

Because, if it is,
I'll need to plan accordingly.

You haven't discussed it.

Well, get it sorted
immediately, would you?

It's the least you could do.

Just out of curiosity--
was he any good?

My brother.

Does he have a talent
for the act of coitus?

Mycroft, your thoughts
on Watson?

We were real surprised

we even got a shot
to bid on a foal

from Silver Blaze
and Twice for No.

This little guy cost us big.

Here he is-- Nutmeg.

You pet him, you got
yourself a friend for life.

Hi, Nutmeg.

You mind
telling me why

the NYPD's so keen
to see a baby horse?

It's a winding tale.

It involves
the British peerage,

syringes full of
concentrated potassium

and 13 drug-related
murders.

You want to tell me what
we're looking at here?

Whorls.
Whirls?

Whorls-- small patches
of hair which grow

in the opposite direction
to the rest of the coat.

I'll only be a moment.

If you can't
wait patiently,

feel free to find something
to occupy your time.

Have sex with my
brother, perhaps.

Well, it gives me absolutely

no pleasure to say,
"I told you so,"

but Nigella Mason
is a horrid witch.

If it gives you no pleasure,
why you looking so satisfied?

Because I know why

Joaquin Aguilar
is angry with her.

Summon the marchioness.

Did you know
there have been

several studies done
on whether or not

the placement of whorls on
horses is a heritable trait?

I beg your pardon?

The placement of those little
cowlicks is inherited.

And why are you
telling me this?

Well, it's not something that
most people would look for,

but appears to be true.

I'll show you.

This...

is a photograph
of Silver Blaze.

You will observe

there is a whorl directly
between his eyes.

Mmm.
The same is true of Twice for No,

who recently birthed
Silver Blaze's son.

Now, the laws of nature
tell us that their offspring

should also have whorls
between his eyes.

We looked at this young
beast this morning.

Nutmeg has whorls positioned
well above his eyes.

Which leads me to the
pertinent question:

What exactly happened to
the real Silver Blaze?

Is he dead?

Dead?

You saw him yourself yesterday.

Well, I saw a horse
that certainly

looked like
Silver Blaze.

But you and I
both know

that the horse
whose sexual favors

you are selling for
upwards of ￡100,000 a pop

is an imposter.

You have no idea the battles
that I fought

to get ownership of Silver Blaze

included in my prenuptials
with the marquess.

And why shouldn't I
have something to show

for giving years of my life
to that man's lie?

You were married
for 22 months.

Yes, and I
earned that horse

during that stretch--
believe me.

I earned a pack of horses.

And, of course,
it wasn't ten weeks

after we signed
the papers

that I get a call
out of the blue--

3:00 a.m.,
heart failure.

So you hatched a plan to
keep the money rolling in.

Where did you find
the imposter?

Silver Blaze has a brother.

He never amounted to much.

But their markings
are almost identical.

We bought him
for a few hundred quid,

applied a bit of hair dye
here and there.

Dye?
You're charging these people

hundreds of thousands
of dollars.

Don't they want to have proof
that it's the real horse?

Yes. Well,
the racing world's

always been
a little bit backward.

With studding,

most of the scrutiny
falls on the mare.

They're screened
for disease,

for the tendency
to inflict injury

during the live cover.

And the stud, well,

the whole world knew
that Silver Blaze was mine.

There were some requests
for genetic testing.

We took some hair
and some blood

before we got rid
of the body.

So, really, we didn't run
into that many problems.

You're the first three people
who have figured it out.

Actually, we're not.

Joaquin Aguilar
caught on, too.

But he couldn't
just expose you.

That would destroy the value
of the foal born to his mare.

So he did what drug
kingpins are wont to do.

He planned his revenge.

Poisoned your horse.

And after you watched it
die over several days,

he would then come for
you and your consort.

Dalton.

Are you going to tell the police
what I've done?

I see. I'm at the mercy
of the Holmes brothers.

I knew it was a drug deal.

That's why I stayed hidden,

even after I heard the gunshots.

I heard men screaming.

I got up to run, and I saw him.

He was sitting there
like a statue.

His eyes, I...

I don't know.

They were just cold.

Like the Arctic.

The only man to ever
lay eyes on El Mecanico

has a weakness for
unhelpful metaphors.

Are you still sulking
about Mycroft?

No.

I hope you don't expect
me to apologize.

Look, if I had a sister,
would you even hesitate

for a second before
you slept with her?

It's not the act itself
that gives me pause.

It's that I can't
put it into context.

There is a certain...
intimacy

which is a byproduct
of our partnership.

We work well
together,

and I think we both
value that fact.

Right?

You must have known
that I would deduce

that you had slept
with my brother.

It is unlike you
to introduce such a free radical

into an otherwise
highly functional relationship.

Unless, of course,
the unlikelihood

was precisely
the point.

Do you think you're maybe
overthinking this?

You wanted to demonstrate
that I don't have

a monopoly on boorish
or outrageous behavior.

That you won't become
a slave to the roles

we have assigned
each other.

Hmm.

I'm glad we cleared the air.

Message received.

There was no message.

Does that man's reliance
on hazy metaphor

seem almost willful to you?

What do you mean?

I guess I thought
he looked like...

vengeance.

Vengeance. Okay.

He's selling an idea,
not describing a person.

I guess I thought
he looked like...

vengeance.

Vengeance. Okay.

Can you be
more specific?

You're a crafty cow, aren't you?

Look at his hand.

He's missing his ring finger.

As is the man who murdered
Dalton Ladd the other night.

I don't think we' looking
at the witness to a massacre.

I think he's the perpetrator.

That's El Mecanico.

This is the guy
the Feds have been

chasing for years?

If that's true,
why did he even bother

giving this statement?

We think that
the police

got to the scene
of the massacre

before he could
get away.

He had to come up
with a cover story.

We're dealing with an
exceptionally cunning opponent.

He'd have to have
this identity

in place as
a fail-safe.

Once the authorities
arrived, he crafted a tale

that took advantage of
everyone's preconceived notions

of what a cartel hit man
should look like.

He sent the DEA
hunting for a myth.

And no one noticed
that the guy's

missing a finger
on his left hand?

They've been working off
of partial fingerprints.

No one knew that they were
pursuing a four-fingered man

until we found
a complete set of prints

at the scene of
Dalton Ladd's murder.

That's him.

We're about to
apprehend El Mecanico.

Well, let's say you're right.

This guy told the Feds his name
was Kent Jenkins.

I'm guessing that's an alias.

All right, so we know

what he looks like--
that's more than we had--

but I don't see how we're
about to put cuffs on the guy.

We know what he looks like,
and we know what he wants.

El Mecanico is nothing
if not thorough.

He was contracted to
kill Nigella Mason.

Rest assured he's going to
try and do exactly that.

We don't use civilians as bait.

There's no need to put her
directly in his crosshairs.

No.

There's no doubt he's
monitoring her movements.

One of the simplest ways
to do that

is listen in on
her phone conversations.

Anyone with 50
pounds to spend

can buy the software
which lets them

listen in on virtually
any wireless call.

That's why we told her
not to use her cell.

Yeah.

So, what if she slips up?

Miss Mason told her friend

she'd be at the bar
at quarter to 5:00.

We can expect this guy
to set up shop early.

Be ready.

He'll definitely want

the lay of the land
before he makes a move.

Hi there.

Don't move.

Hands behind
your back.

Get on the ground.

I'll thank you not to refer

to my client
as "El Mecanico" again.

He's a gainfully
employed citizen.

He's on the books

at one of Joaquin Aguilar's
front companies.

Thank you.

Your text said you found him.

El Mecanico's real
name is Keith Newell.

I don't envy his attorney
at the moment.

Your "gainfully employed" client

was carrying a $10,000 handgun
when we picked him up.

That weapon is
registered.

We have him on videotape

lying through his
teeth to the DEA.

I'm not completely
convinced that's my client.

We have his fingerprints

at three different
murder scenes.

You should be begging

to talk to me
right now.

You've just caught
a mass murderer.

People have been hunting
for this guy for a decade.

Well done.

And thank you.

What's going on?

Be right back.

I just got a call
from Latent Prints.

Something wrong?

We just compared
that guy's prints

to the ones we found
at all the murders.

They don't match.

What?
Not even close.

No, there's been a mistake.
We ran it three times.

Do it again.
That man lied on videotape,

he's missing a finger
on his left hand,

and he was carrying
a designer handgun

which he intended to use
to murder Nigella Mason.

Holmes, are you listening?
The prints don't match.

We can hold him
for trespassing,

but he'll make bail soon.

And when he does, we're going
to have to let him go.

Must be a hazard
in your line of work;

frustration.

What?
No, I'm just saying

you've both built
a brilliant case.

I really thought
you had your man.

It must be frustrating
being wrong.

It's true we've reached
a crossroads,

but we're not wrong;
Keith Newell is El Mecanico.

And his fingerprint
didn't match.

That's a factor which needs
to be accounted for.

There's only one explanation
I can come up with.

Which means there's only one
explanation

that we need to investigate:

fake fingerprints.

Fake fingerprints?

It makes perfect sense.

El Mecanico, he's a cautious man
in a hazardous line of work.

He has a set
of false fingerprints

as a last line of defense

against exactly
the kind of meeting

he had today.

I get it. But fake fingerprints?

Is that even possible?

Yeah, of course it is.

They're rarely seen
in the underworld.

To make a top-notch pair,

you need
a high-resolution camera,

you need a industrial-grade
chemistry lab,

and ideally, a set of human hands
for your prints.

El Mecanico works
for a cartel,

so money's no issue,

and I imagine they're awash
with severed hands.

Yeah, that's how he's done it.
Fake fingerprints.

He must have peeled them off

while they were bringing him
to the station.

Uh! Why are you poking me
with your single stick?

I'm poking the covers
to determine whether or not

my brother is in there
with you.

It's just me.

We should get in touch
with him right away.

We're going to Denning.

What's in Denning?

Well, it's where Keith Newell
lives, for one thing.

And why do we need
to see where he lives?

From the DEA files.

Did you know that
the partial prints

attributed to El Mecanico
were found

at three different
crime scenes?

I thought it was
two murders.

Two murders,
three crimes.

So they found the same print

at the scene
of a liquor store robbery?

Someone stole all the Strawdog
wine in the place.

Well, that doesn't make
any sense.

Newell, or El Mecanico, or
whatever you want to call him,

he works for
a billion-dollar business.

He's got
to be paid well,

so I doubt he drinks
cheap wine.

And if he does,
he can pay for it himself.

Which is how I arrived
at my theory:

Newell committed
the massacres

wearing someone else's
fingerprints.

But he didn't do the robbery.

The robbery happened six months
before the first murders.

It was perpetrated
by the original owner

of the fingerprints,

who then donated their hands
to El Mecanico,

presumably not voluntarily.

Mm. Was there a suspect?

There's no mention
of one.

The sheriff who looked
into the robbery

retired some time ago,
but she has agreed to speak with us.

I remember what you're talking
about, sure,

but it's a stretch
to call it a case.

Why is that?

Someone stole all the Strawdog.

Just the Strawdog.

We used to have a handful
of homeless people in town,

not more than ten or 12,
but I kept tabs on them.

I was sheriff, it was my job
to know what was going on.

A month or two before
Schultz's liquor store was robbed,

this new guy drifted into town.

Jed something.
I can't remember his last name,

because everybody just called
him "Strawdog Jed."

This guy spent
most of his day

panhandling out by the lot
where he slept.

I went to pick him up.

Found about ten unopened bottles
of Strawdog,

but no Jed.

I figured
he pulled up stakes

after he robbed
the store.

It's odd,
don't you think,

someone called
Strawdog Jed steals

great quantities
of his favorite drink

and then he just
leaves it all behind?

His drinking buddy sure thought
it was weird.

He swore up and down
that something must've

happened to Jed.

This lot where he slept,

do you think you could
show it to us?

The town redeveloped the lot
with stimulus money.

It's been a park
for about five years now.

And where was it
that Jed slept?

Oh, I guess

right around there.

So what was the ground like
before the lot was converted?

Was there greenery?

Oh, maybe a weed or two.
Other than that,

it was just a patch
of hardscrabble dirt.

Excellent.

Why is that excellent?

Well, everything would have
been planted

at roughly the same time

when the lot was converted
into a park.

So everything's

of uniform age.

Well, except for this
oak tree.

This tree's the same age
as the others,

just taller and lusher

and healthier.

Maybe it got more food
than the other ones.

Precisely.

Something in the soil's provided
extra nutrients for this tree.

You think something was
decomposing down there.

We're gonna need the police,
some men with shovels.

But I think we might
be standing

on the grave
of Strawdog Jed.

Mr. Newell, on behalf
of the City of New York,

we'd like to thank you
for providing us

with your fingerprints
and your DNA sample.

We are unable to link them
to either the mass killings

associated with the Robles
narcotics cartel.

So we wanted to apologize

for any imposition
on your time.

We appreciate that.

However, we have been in touch

with the police department
of Denning, New York.

It seems that they have
a new lead

in the disappearance
of a man named

Jed Eichen.

You might remember him
as "Strawdog Jed."

Turns out someone killed him.

Buried him right there in town.

No hands.

But we did find
some hairs

that weren't Mr. Eichen's buried
right in there with him.

Care to guess
whose DNA they matched?

As part of a plea bargain,

New York resident Keith Newell
confessed today to working

as a hired gunman
for the Robles narcotics cartel.

It remains unclear

exactly how many murders
Newell...

Hi.

I'm here for Sherlock.

I'm sure he'll be right up.

We've hired a chef.

For the restaurant.

That's great.

We'll be refining the menu
over the next couple of days.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

I-I was wondering...

...would you be my guest
for the opening?

Wow, that's so nice.
I would l...

Do you think that's
gonna complicate things?

Look, uh...

setting aside

the events of London,
I've come to think of you

as an extraordinary person.

I'm so grateful
you're in my brother's life.

And I would like very much
the chance for you and I...

to become friends.

Marchioness.

So, you'll be pleased to hear
I have reached out

to certain attorneys known to
associate with Joaquin Aguilar.

I made it quite clear that
if any harm comes to you,

I will expose the fact that
Aguilar knowingly sold a foal

with fraudulent bloodlines.

I'm confident
he'll cut his losses.

You should be safe.

Thank you.

And what about me?

Why, that's up
to my brother to decide.

You are, as
of this moment,

out of the
stud business.

You're not
gonna report me?

I'm not done.

We've seen your records.

Between the insurance payments
you'll get for Dalton Ladd's death

and the money you've saved,
you'll have enough

to repay the victims
of your scam.

You can keep the money
Joaquin Aguilar gave you.

Use it to fund a new,
hopefully more respectable

start in life.

Sherlock and I

will, of course,
oversee the repayments.

Thank you.

It's been lovely
seeing you again, Nigella.

But if it's all
the same with you,

I'd like to have a coffee
with my brother.

I won't discuss
the holidays, you know.

That's fine.

I've no interest
in covering our past

in a glaze of nostalgia.
I accept your terms completely.

Where does that
leave us, then?

What would you like
to talk about?
