In this episode writers aren't even bothering to show effort to make a decent episode and they end up coming up with something that insults everyone's intelligence.
Basically we are told that Moriarty is the smartest, most cunning and most sophisticated criminal in England yet she falls for a trap a 6-year old kid wouldn't fall for and just admits everything so that they can rush an ending to this season within the allotted air time of 42 minutes.
Not to mention, our detective Sherlock solves an extremely complicated plan involving multiple moving parts by doing nothing but staring at the wall of his apartment. What a way to insult your viewers' intelligence. Then again, considering how viewers rated this show an average of 8.8, maybe they have every right to insult those people's (lack of) intelligence.
If I failed at my job the same way writers of this job did, I'd be homeless but they continue to write episodes for shows after failing so terribly.
