I have to admit that I'm enamored with the show overall. Cumberbatch is probably the most delightful Holmes I've ever seen. Also the writing and cinematography are arguably second to none on TV. However, this episode blows chunks. My wife and I were equally disappointed in how contrived and unbelievable this story line was. I hope this isn't the final installment in the series because it would be difficult to get the aftertaste out of my mouth. I won't devolve into spoilers. Suffice it to say, however, that one would have to suspend reality on an incredible scale to believe any of the elements could ever happen. If "the game's afoot", I think someone needs to scrape something off the bottom of their shoes on this one.
