"Killing people is easier is it? I suppose that makes it alright." Looks like a big ol whoopsie by Sherlock and Joan. Time to step up the murder protocols on facebook.

So is it going to turn out Reichenbach had the dude and his family killed to "prove" his point? That would be somewhat of a moral cop-out for the question Reichenbach's process poses.

Elementary isn't usually that ham-fisted, then again its the last season of the show + a time constrained season as well. Vanishingly small chance that the double murder-suicide is a fake-out by Sherlock/Joan, using Morland-MoriartyEvilCorp or the brigade of irregular's .

Slamhound posted:So is it going to turn out Reichenbach had the dude and his family killed to "prove" his point? Oh, absolutely. I was expecting the entire time that he was going to have the guy killed regardless of Sherlock's conclusion. The active intervention that swayed it so the guy was definitely not a threat just sealed it.

I don’t think he had the family killed, but the women who was all kung ho about offing Joan did it.

Oh poo poo a direct continuation from last week. Oh poo poo it's Morland and he's here to help. Oh poo poo he's dead. Sherlock I am disappointed you weren't wearing an old school analog wire for your meeting with Odin.

I hope the solution for dealing with Odin Reichenbach involves the other Odin encountred by Joan and Sherlock. Very strong meta-callback if it happens, while possibly injecting a momentary lighter tone into a increasingly darkening final season of the show.

My crazy theory for the finale and dealing with Odin: Odin's last name Reichenbach is not on mistake especially with this season being the last of the show. If you are not familiar enough with Sherlock book is a short story where Sherlock fights with Moriatry and tumble off the Reichenbach Falls to their death. (This was Sherlock's death in the books for years until fans put pressure on Doyle to bring him back and write more, which he did.) Now, I wonder if Sherlock will use Odin's own method/technology against him. With his dad now being killed off he wants revenge and Odin should know this. Maybe Odin uses his channels to send someone after Sherlock or does it himself to prove something but either Sherlock was playing him the whole time knowingly or (like the book) knowingly walked into a trap to face his demise to take down his adversary. Odin's park he was shooting archery at was high up, wasn't it? Fall right into the river and be gone with no one ever knowing! Someone correct me if I'm wrong with the book plot at all. It has been a while. I need to read the novels again.

I really liked how at the end there, despite everything he says, you could tell that Sherlock was trying very hard to keep composed and just barely failing. In a lot of ways, this episode very strongly reminded me of M from season 1. Now that Morland died because Odin interfered with the Chinese government directly, he's made this explicitly personal to Sherlock. I don't see Odin getting the same treatment Moran got (although that would be incredibly satisfying), but the episode as a whole felt like it was barreling towards the finale and the denouement really made it pronounced. It is amazing that Reichenbach's Fall is ultimately going to be because he still had a dude who lived in his parent's basement murdered.

As soon as Morland and Sherlock has the moment in front of the fire we knew Morland was a goner. Your last moment with a charcter is a tender one? RIP.

If Morland is that wily, next episode Sherlock should get a last recording of him with something he can use.

TheOneAndOnlyT posted:I have a sneaking suspicion that the next episode is going to end on the stinger of Moriarty showing up. I don't really have any basis for it, but it seems like the sort of twist appropriate for the episode before a series finale. Maybe Sherlock decides that she's the only person who can help deal with Reichenbach when he already has his hooks in so many agencies. That was when Moriarty was in jail. They stopped when she broke out.

I expect Holmes to kill Odin. And if he does, if he goes to jail, a very bittersweet ending would be Holmes corresponding with her. Maybe Holmes' descent is supposed to mirror Moriarty's descent?

Being caught in an explosion can't be good for post concussion sufferers I hope there is more closure to the Reichenbach case in the finale because that was a very weak set up that Sherlock did. He would beat the murder charge no problem. It seems like the final episode will be one long epilogue which is definitely an interesting decision. I hope they nail it.

Interesting choice for a closing scene. I suppose since it's doubtful anyone believed it they might as well make it clear.

CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:I hope there is more closure to the Reichenbach case in the finale because that was a very weak set up that Sherlock did. He would beat the murder charge no problem. But as Gregson pointed out, that's not really the point. Sherlock's investigation will point to Odker's program, which means every bit of it will be dug up and presented during discovery. At that point, Reichenbach is done.

Sherlock has made such a wonderful mess of Odker. I hope we get a bittersweet ending. He takes over what remains of Moriarty's network. Goes legit. Becomes his father. Has some kids (with Moriarty).

The IMDB summary of the next episode says Moriarty is in it I've actually liked this season a lot. The BBC Sherlock Reichenbach Fall was my favorite of that series, and I've appreciated the similarities and differences in the Elementary version. Morland's death was very well done, and it's good to see the show address technology pushing both Holmes' methods towards obsolescence. If the finale nails it, Elementary will be low-key one of my favorite tv series. The last 2 seasons were a huge rebound after the mediocre S5, leaving it as the only weak one of the bunch.
