Only one thing, Mary...
Thank you, Jenny.
Holmes, must be weaned
of his cocaine addiction.
There is only one man in Europe
who is in a position to help us.
A doctor in Vienna,
he wrote this article in The Lancet.
I've cabled him regarding Holmes.
He's replied to my cable,
and he agrees to help,
provided we can get him to Vienna.
Vienna?
He will never go there.
You know he does not like
to leave London.
He says it generates an unhealthy
excitement in the criminal classes
- when they learn he's abroad.
- True.
with an incentive he can't resist.
A false trail convincing him that
Moriarty has fled to the continent.
I know how Holmes thinks, you see.
I've sorted it all out.
Of course you have.
Would you please tell Mr. Holmes
to be silent?
I did not know Mycroft Holmes well.
Holmes informed me of his existence.
Beyond the fact that both brothers
were brilliant, however,
the similarity ended.
Mycroft Holmes preferred to live out
an eccentric bachelorhood
circumscribed by the walls
of his club,
beyond whose confines
he was rarely known to venture.
Dr. Watson, is it?
Indeed I am, sir.
I have not seen you
since that unhappy affair
of the Greek interpreter.
Mr. Holmes.
Tell me, what urgent business
have you that concerns my brother?
What's happened to him?
How do you know
anything has happened to him?
I've not seen you these three years,
and then it was in the company
of Sherlock,
whose doings I know you chronicle.
Suddenly you pay me a visit at a time
when most married men
are at home with their wives...
and you arrive without your alter ego,
and your medical bag,
although I know
from your own statements in print
that you've resumed your practice.
Your face is drawn and haggard,
proclaiming a problem of some sort.
And it is not too long a shot to infer
that my brother is
the cause of your distress.
Tell me.
In as few words as possible,
I told him of his brother's condition,
and the promising article
in The Lancet.
When I mentioned the visitor
to my consulting room,
he flushed uncomfortably.
Professor Moriarty?
He appears to know both of you
from the time...
Quite!
And you believe this Viennese doctor
can help him?
The medical profession, you see,
is willfully ignorant
of the problems of addiction.
He appears to have made
a study of it,
in addition to his other work,
hysteria in children.
Peculiar range of interest, isn't it?
He sounds Jewish.
Mr. Holmes...
time is of the essence!
At the rate your brother
is using cocaine
he'll be dead within the year.
And I have no idea how on earth
