The start of the episode sees Sherlock frantically searching for his secret storage of cigarettes, whilst Watson sits in a chair reading. Oh this is the life! It does seem that Mr Holmes has a new obsession with pointy objects… more specifically a harpoon, which at that point of time the viewers dismissed as one more weapon in his residence, without pondering the question of where it came from? A mystery I’m pretty sure the clever writers will never reveal. Mrs Hudson seemed very angry about the presence of this weapon, saying: “Perhaps you can put away your harpoon.” Dirty minds on! Not a euphemism I hope. Sherlock was agitated because of his lack of good cases, so he accepts an offer from a little girl that had wrote to him about the unexplained kid-napping of her rabbit – it looked like there was no force entry of the hutch. The mystery deepens! It also seems that the rabbit was fluorescent, which would be pretty handy as you could use it for a torch. As the mystifying captor remains unrevealed, Sherlock travels to the military base of Baskerville to discover more. There he meets his client’s mother, a gene scientist there, who reveals that she took the rabbit that was named “Bluebell.” Unfortunately, Bluebell was never found, and the pure child remained miserable.
Oh yes, and there was a man searching for the hound that apparently killed his father, but it turned out that the hound was imaginary – brought about by the hallucinogenic fog. And while Sherlock was searching for the hound, it seemed likely that the man would suddenly transform into a werewolf… except that never happened. But that’s not as interesting as the rabbit story as I’m sure you would agree. Also, Microsoft Mycroft had a texting spree with his brother, but Sherlock rudely didn’t reply! Well… he was kind of busy breaking into a military base with a fake ID card, but he should learn to respect his elders… even if he doesn’t share his brothers interest in computers.
