1	1	"Pilot"	Michael Cuesta	Robert Doherty	September 27, 2012 (2012-09-27)	13.41^[2]
Joan Watson is hired by Morland Holmes to be the sober companion of his recovering addict son Sherlock, who used to work for Scotland Yard as a consultant on homicides. The day of his release, Sherlock escapes from rehab to help Captain Gregson with the case of a woman who was attacked and supposedly kidnapped, only to find her body in a concealed safe room. Sherlock believes that the killer is probably a serial killer, finding similarities to another case, except that this victim survived. After interviewing the woman, Sherlock deduces she knows the man who attacked her. The suspect, however, is dead, seemingly a suicide. Sherlock concludes that the second victim's psychiatrist husband gave his patient, the killer, steroids that made him violent, rather than pills to calm him down, then arranged for him to come into contact with the psychiatrist's wife. He persuaded his spouse to have plastic surgery to make her look like the first victim, on whom the killer had a violent obsession. The psychiatrist was planning on leaving his wealthy wife, but there was a prenuptial agreement that would have left him nothing, unless she were to die.
2	2	"While You Were Sleeping"	John David Coles	Robert Doherty	October 4, 2012 (2012-10-04)	11.13^[3]
Sherlock and Joan investigate two murders. Sherlock notices that both victims had corneal dystrophy, a rare genetic disorder, which suggests they are related. They discover that they were the illegitimate offspring of a wealthy deceased businessman. His large fortune is to be disbursed to his fraternal twin daughters within days. A witness provides a description of the murderer that matches a woman in a coma—one of the twins. Eventually, Sherlock figures out the comatose woman is working with her doctor, who (having put her in a coma in the first place) can bring her out of it to commit the murders to avoid sharing the inheritance. Sherlock announces in the woman's hospital room that he has identified a third heir and blurts out an address. The killer breaks in, but it is a trap, and she is arrested. Sherlock is also introduced to, and begins working with, NYPD Detective Marcus Bell (Jon Michael Hill).

Sherlock and Joan investigate the abduction of a young girl by a serial killer known as "the Balloon Man", whose name comes from the fact that balloons are left at the scene of each of his abductions. The Balloon Man targets children. Matters get complicated when the Balloon Man's first victim from 2005, Adam Kemper (Johnny Simmons), is caught by the police. Sherlock deduces that Adam has Stockholm syndrome and sympathizes with him to help find the killer. Adam gets an immunity deal for crimes he committed in consort with the Balloon Man. The Balloon Man is identified as Samuel Abbott, but when the police come for him, Abbott commits suicide. His most recent abductee is saved. However, when Sherlock examines Abbott's home, he finds evidence that Adam is, in fact, the Balloon Man. After Abbott kidnapped him, he managed to turn the tables and dominate Abbott. Sherlock finds a way to bring Adam to justice. One of the murders had to have been committed by Adam alone, because Abbott was in the hospital at the time.

Sherlock and Joan are hired to find a missing investment firm executive, who turns up dead of a heroin overdose that is not accidental. After identifying other victims, he suspects a serial killer is murdering their way up the company's ranks. The man who hired Sherlock is the prime suspect; he worked at the branches where and when the others were killed. However, he has an ironclad alibi for one murder. However, the man's secretary also benefitted from her employer's rise. Sherlock tells her this and follows her into an underground garage; she tases Sherlock and drives him to her employer's country home, where she plans to bury his corpse and frame her boss. Joan is forced to tell Gregson the truth about her job with Sherlock to get Gregson to search for him. After receiving a suspicious text message from Sherlock, she realizes that he is in danger. He is located through his cellphone and rescued. Meanwhile, Joan gets roped into a blind date by her friend. She likes the man, but thinks he hesitated when asked if he was ever married so she is suspicious. Sherlock reassures Joan to confirm her feelings he does a computer search to find that he is married.
5	5	"Lesser Evils"	Colin Bucksey	Liz Friedman	November 1, 2012 (2012-11-01)	10.49^[7]
While doing research in the hospital morgue, Sherlock stumbles upon a murder that no one else noticed. Someone with medical knowledge is poisoning pain-racked, near-death patients with epinephrine and making it look like they died of natural causes. He murdered eight others. The killer becomes acquainted with his victims; one of them spoke only Ukrainian. None of the doctors do, but a janitor was a doctor in Ukraine. The man is arrested and confesses to everything, but Sherlock is bothered by the fact that one of his victims was recovering. It turns out that her surgeon tampered with her medical file to make it look like she was dying. While operating on her, the surgeon left a surgical clamp inside her; because of his prior blunders, he would have been fired and in danger of losing his license if this mistake was known. Meanwhile, Joan reconnects with a doctor friend. While sitting in on a pre-op procedure, her gut instinct tells her that the patient has a condition that might kill her during surgery. Joan discovers she may be "a better doctor than she is a friend" after ordering a second, more accurate test (which confirms her suspicion) without her friend's approval.^[6]
6	6	"Flight Risk"	David Platt	Corinne Brinkerhoff	November 8, 2012 (2012-11-08)	10.90^[8]
A small plane crashed on a beach, killing all four aboard. Sherlock deduces that one of them was murdered beforehand by the lack of bleeding. Sand was put into the fuel tank to disable the plane's engine, and the murder victim walked in on the perpetrator at work. His corpse was then stuffed in the cargo hold, which caused a weight imbalance and the subsequent premature crash, on land instead of water. Evidence points to another pilot at the same company who is smuggling cocaine, but the real murderer is the company's owner, who is also involved in the smuggling. Joan is invited to dinner by Sherlock's father. However, Sherlock warns her his father will not show up, based on his own experience. Joan meets a man claiming to be Sherlock's father, but realizes he is an impostor when he asks her how sex is with Sherlock. She later tracks down the man (Roger Rees), an actor and friend of Sherlock named Alistair, to learn more about Sherlock's past, as Sherlock refuses to divulge anything. Alistair knows little, but Sherlock once visited him while high, barely able to speak, and muttered the name Irene. Joan asks Sherlock about her.
7	7	"One Way to Get Off"	Seith Mann	Christopher Silber	November 15, 2012 (2012-11-15)	10.75^[9]
Sherlock assists Gregson with a double homicide investigation that has the same modus operandi as a series of murders from 13 years earlier. That case led to the conviction of Wade Crewes, who is still in jail, and gave Gregson his big break. While Gregson looks for a copycat killer, Sherlock digs into the old case. He discovers that either Gregson or his then partner planted a mug with Crewes' fingerprints at a crime scene, which proved vital in obtaining Crewes' conviction. Sherlock questions whether Crewes is guilty after all. Crewes had no visitors during his incarceration, so an accomplice seems impossible, that is until Sherlock realizes a prison library worker named Sean Figuero taught the illiterate Crewes to read. Sean turns out to be Crewes' illegitimate son and his accomplice. After being frozen out by Sherlock, Joan pays a visit to his old rehab center in order to learn more about the enigmatic man now in her care.
8	8	"The Long Fuse"	Andrew Bernstein	Jeffrey Paul King	November 29, 2012 (2012-11-29)	10.46^[10]
A bomb explodes in the office of a website design company, killing two and injuring eleven. The first suspect is someone who called a pager that triggered the bomb, but he just misdialed the number. The bomb is four years old, leading to investigation of the company that occupied the premises at that time. That turns out to be a high-powered public relations company. It received threatening letters from the ELM, an eco-terrorist group which bombed other companies, in 2008. However, this bomb did not use eco-friendly compounds, unlike the explosives the ELM used. The bomb was planted in a wall of the office of Pradeep Singh, a high-performing executive who went missing that year. Sherlock finds Singh's corpse hidden behind a wall of his house. Singh taped his encounters with prostitutes, one of them being the public relations company CEO Heather Vanowen (Lisa Edelstein). Vanowen financed her education and the startup of her company through prostitution. Singh was blackmailing her. When the bomb failed to go off, she shot him. Joan encourages Sherlock to choose a sponsor before she leaves.
9	9	"You Do It to Yourself"	Phil Abraham	Peter Blake	December 6, 2012 (2012-12-06)	10.31^[11]
An under-the-weather Sherlock investigates the murder of a college professor who was shot in both eyes. Sherlock retraces the victim's steps back to the illicit gambling parlor in Chinatown where he was killed. Gregson is able to bring in the gunman thanks to video surveillance footage, but the killer claims that the victim himself hired him as his executioner. It turns out the professor had an agonizingly painful, untreatable cancer and had only a few months to live; his condition could have been detected by the appearance of his eyes. The professor had lured a Chinese woman to the United States, promising to marry her, but instead abused her physically and psychologically. The killer, by changing the location of the killing, messed up the victim's plan to frame her lover (his teaching assistant) for the murder. Meanwhile, Joan gets a call from an addict and former lover who is in prison and needs her help.
10	10	"The Leviathan"	Peter Werner	Corinne Brinkerhoff and Craig Sweeny	December 13, 2012 (2012-12-13)	10.46^[12]
When a supposedly uncrackable bank vault called the "Leviathan" is breached for the second time, Sherlock is called in to figure out what went wrong. The first time, the heist was committed by a once-in-a-lifetime teaming of four world-class criminals. They were all caught and imprisoned, so the vault company cannot imagine how anyone else got in. Sherlock learns that not even he can break into the Leviathan. He later surmises that four jurors at the trial of one of the robbers realized that the testimony they had heard was enough for them to recreate the safecracking method used. However, one of them is murdering the others to avoid sharing the $40 million they got away with.
11	11	"Dirty Laundry"	John David Coles	Liz Friedman and Christopher Silber	January 3, 2013 (2013-01-03)	11.44^[13]
Sherlock and Joan investigate the murder of Teri Purcell, the general manager of a high-end Manhattan hotel, whose body was stuffed into one of the hotel's industrial driers. The woman's background and family seem clean, but a call girl reveals that the victim secretly helped her and her cohorts to ply their trade at the hotel, and at no charge. Teri used the prostitutes to attract high-level diplomats and businessmen to her establishment, where she videotaped them to obtain valuable information. Sherlock discovers Teri was a Russian spy, as is her husband. Teri revealed all this to their daughter Carly, as well as her plans to make the teen a spy too. Carly objected and pushed her mother, causing her to fall and strike her head on a desk, apparently killing her. Teri's handler, Geoffrey Silver disposed of the body and blackmailed Carly into agreeing to become a spy. Teri, however, was not dead. Silver decided that Carly had much greater potential for espionage and killed Teri. Meanwhile, since Joan's time with Sherlock is almost up, he offers her an apprenticeship, but she has already lined up a new client.

Sherlock is reunited with "M" (Vinnie Jones), a British serial killer who appears to have followed him to New York; Joan eventually learns that "M" is the one who murdered Sherlock's lover Irene Adler, causing him to spiral into his previous drug addiction. However, after Sherlock captures "M" and privately interrogates him, he learns that "M" (whose name is Sebastian Moran) is not a serial killer, but an assassin, and that he was in prison when Irene was murdered. Moran is on the payroll of a mysterious criminal named Moriarty, who heads a shadowy criminal organization; Moriarty killed Irene and pinned the blame on Moran. Sherlock vows that he will hunt down Moriarty. Meanwhile, Joan has reservations about leaving Sherlock.
13	13	"The Red Team"	Christine Moore	S : Craig Sweeny; S/T : Jeffrey Paul King	January 31, 2013 (2013-01-31)	10.90^[15]
After getting suspended by Gregson at the end of the episode "M.", Sherlock decides to spend some time pursuing one of his favorite activities: riling up conspiracy theorists on the Internet. When one of the theorists goes missing, Sherlock decides to investigate on his own. After finding that the man was killed in a suspicious hit-and-run accident, Sherlock looks into the victim's conspiracy theories in order to see if he had hit on anything that might have made him a target. While most of the theories are nonsense, Sherlock does find one that seems possible. In 2009, a group of people were hired by the government to devise a terror plot for a war game simulation. In all other cases, these plots were made public after the fact, but the 2009 exercise was kept classified. Now, members of the 2009 "Red Team" have started to show up dead or mentally incapacitated, targeted by one member who wants to keep the classified information secret.

While getting prepped in a hospital for a kidney donation to his ill sister, serial murderer Howard Ennis (Terry Kinney) escapes from custody and resumes killing. Sherlock is brought in to consult, but bristles after learning that he must work alongside Kathryn Drummond, an FBI profiler who wrote a book about Ennis. She and Sherlock have a past, but their association ended when she published an article profiling Sherlock (called "the deductionist" in the article to protect his identity) that predicted his forthcoming addiction. Meanwhile, Ennis is killing atypically. The experts are stumped until Sherlock realizes that Ennis is out to avenge himself on Drummond because the publicity from her false accusation that his father abused him devastated his family and led to the father's suicide. Ennis's sister is working with him. She stabs Drummond when the latter comes to apologize for her unsubstantiated claims; Drummond survives. Meanwhile, Joan faces eviction from her rent-controlled apartment when she learns that the man she sublet it to used the place to shoot pornographic films, but Watson's deductive skills make her realize that she has been set up by him.

Joan becomes worried when she learns that Rhys used to be Sherlock's drug dealer. When Rhys begins to get desperate, he offers Sherlock drugs, believing he works better when he is high. When Sherlock checks out the cartel, he identifies one of its members, Xande Diaz (Michael Irby), as an undercover DEA agent. Diaz, however, informs him that the cartel is too busy with more urgent matters to be involved. With the deadline approaching, Sherlock borrows the money from his father, in return for future favors. As Sherlock goes to the rendezvous, he spots three cartel men. He flees, then realizes the only one who could have set him up is Diaz. Diaz takes Rhys and Joan captive, but then finds that only Sherlock can transfer the money to him. Rhys manages to free himself and charges Diaz; while the two men are entangled, Joan knocks Diaz out with a bust.

While driving home after a long day, Bell is shot at, and his car overturns. He is not able to get a good look at the shooter, but he recognizes the car as belonging to a recently released drug lord who had vowed to get revenge for Bell's involvement in the man's conviction. Then the criminal turns up dead, and all the evidence points to Bell. Sherlock finds the murder weapon, planted in Bell's apartment. Bell also struggles to reconnect with his brother Andre (Malcolm Goodwin), an ex-convict on parole who wants to use his underworld connections in order to help. Andre ends up with two bullets in his back, but survives. Sherlock finally realizes that it is not one of Bell's known enemies, but rather a colleague and former girlfriend who is after him. The career of Officer Paula Reyes (Paula Garcés) was derailed after Bell tipped off the department about a dirty cop whom she admired (and possibly abetted). Sherlock encourages Joan to learn self-defense. He reveals that he knows she is no longer being paid by his father to be his sober companion. He offers to let her stay on as his partner, and she accepts.
17	17	"Possibility Two"	Seith Mann	Mark Goffman	February 21, 2013 (2013-02-21)	11.19^[19]
While helping Joan learn deductive skills, Sherlock is approached by Gerald Lydon, a wealthy man suffering from an incurable disease that is destroying his mind. The disease is genetic. However, there is no family history of the disease, so Lydon is certain that someone gave it to him somehow. Unconvinced, Sherlock refuses the case. After Lydon kills his driver, however, Sherlock takes the case and learns that Lydon's claim is theoretically possible. He receives an email from Dr. Natasha Kademan providing details of how it was done, but before they can meet, she turns up dead. All the evidence, including DNA results from blood found at the crime scene, point to the killer being an ex-con with no connection to Sherlock's case. However, the blood was actually manufactured to pass the DNA test. The killer turns out to be Kademan's husband, who mistakenly believed that she was having an affair with someone named Lincoln Dunwoody. The wealthy Lincoln and Dunwoody families each established a foundation to conduct research on Lydon's disease because a member of each family contracted the disease. A scientist suffering from the disease poisoned all three wealthy individuals to obtain funding for research for a cure.
18	18	"Déjà Vu All Over Again"	Jerry Levine	Brian Rodenbeck	March 14, 2013 (2013-03-14)	11.33^[20]
Sherlock and Joan are handed a case of a woman who disappeared six months before. She had left behind only a video announcing that she was leaving her husband and reflecting on how her life was affected by the news of a woman who was given a bouquet and then shoved into the path of a subway train by a complete stranger. Sherlock thinks this case is ideal for Joan's first solo investigation. Meanwhile, he investigates the subway murder. Joan questions the husband of the disappeared woman; her instincts tell her he murdered his wife. Joan follows the husband and when she sees him load a large wooden trunk (which he claimed his wife took with her) into his car, breaks into it, but there is nothing inside it and Joan is arrested. After this failure and remarks from her friends, Joan starts doubting her decision to become a detective, but later she finds evidence that links both cases. Sherlock deduces the wife's video was made 18 months before, when another woman was killed in a subway. The husband had recreated the crime so he could claim the video had been sent six months before.

A security guard is killed during a robbery of unreleased mobile phones, but shoots one of the criminals before dying. The robbery turns out to be a smokescreen to steal blueprints.

Sherlock pays Pam (Becky Ann Baker) to drive the pair to EROC in her snowplow. Sherlock realizes that the burglary has already taken place - $30 million in used notes about to be shredded - and the loot removed by ambulance. NYPD inquiries at hospitals put the shot criminal into custody, but she refuses to reveal the whereabouts of the loot-filled ambulance. An escape route out of the city for the ambulance was plotted, with roadblocks being removed one by one. The visiting FEMA official helping out with the city's emergency response to the snowstorm is involved in the heist. The remaining two robbers are apprehended. Meanwhile, Ms. Hudson (Candis Cayne), an old friend of Sherlock's, is dealing with a breakup, so he lets her stay at the brownstone. She is eventually hired to clean there once a week.

Sherlock's first anniversary of being sober is approaching, but he does not want to celebrate the event. Meanwhile, a blackmailer^[a] targets the fathers of three rape victims and even the rapist - the blackmailer warns that a "fail-safe" accomplice will put the videos online in the event of his arrest or demise. Sherlock identifies a man named Milverton as the blackmailer. While breaking into the man's house, Sherlock witnesses Milverton being killed by a masked intruder, who then removes Milverton's body and laptop. Milverton has a blackmail ledger which lists payments to "Henry 8". Pistone, one of the blackmailed fathers, is arrested trying to dispose of Milverton's body. He confesses, but will likely receive a short sentence due to the circumstances. Sherlock finds "Henry 8", murdered nearly a week before. Pistone found Milverton, but the blackmailer offered him a share of the proceeds. Besides, Pistone did not get along with his stepdaughter, the victim. Milverton killed "Henry 8", not needing two accomplices. Pistone then killed Milverton and stole the laptop containing the blackmail material to take over the operation. Sherlock reveals that he is reluctant to celebrate his "sober-versary" because he does not want to be reminded of his last relapse.

City councilman Van Der Hoff is forced to change his vote online, then murdered through his hacked pacemaker by serial killer Daniel Gottlieb (F. Murray Abraham). Everyone assumes he died of a routine heart attack. Sebastian Moran offers to confess to other murders, but only to Sherlock. Eager to get back at Moriarty for betraying and continuing to try to murder him, Moran tells the detective that Van Der Hoff was one of his assigned targets. Sherlock steals Van Der Hoff's body and determines that Moran's claim is true. Sherlock looks into other well-disguised murders and catches Gottlieb. With Gottlieb's help, Sherlock finds the man who hired him has seen Moriarty, but when he goes to confront him, that man is murdered. Moran commits suicide after Moriarty sends him a coded message (via an unsuspecting Sherlock) giving him the choice between his own death and his sister's. Moriarty calls Sherlock to say he is ready to meet him.
22	22	"Risk Management"	Adam Davidson	S : Robert Doherty; S/T : Liz Friedman	May 9, 2013 (2013-05-09)	9.29^[24]
Moriarty calls Sherlock to have him look into the several-month-old unsolved murder of a mechanic; in exchange, he offers to give answers about Irene Adler's death. The mechanic was under surveillance by a private security firm whose founder's sister was killed before. After Sherlock tells the founder, Daren Sutter, that he knows Sutter avenged his sister and that someone bugged his home, Sutter confesses to the mechanic's murder. Moriarty, however, says that Sherlock has not uncovered the whole truth. Sutter did not see his sister's murderer's face as he fled. His wife (who was married to someone else at the time) did, but she could not come forward, as it would reveal her affair with Daren. When her husband's mental health began failing as the 20th anniversary of the murder approached, she convinced him that the lookalike mechanic was the murderer. It worked; Daren was at peace with himself. However, the mechanic was out of the country at the time of the sister's death. Mrs Sutter is arrested. In payment, Sherlock receives an address and the choice to either lead a safe life or find out about Irene. Sherlock and Joan discover a traumatized Irene (Natalie Dormer) at the address.

Flashbacks reveal Sherlock's meeting with Irene two years ago and their subsequent relationship, including her "preserving" antique works of art by returning to museums her forgeries of the paintings rather than the restored originals. Irene was psychologically tortured for the past 18 months, which she believes to have been seven years. Sherlock decides to send Irene away to keep her safe, but she counters that they go together. He agrees, but then notices a mole is missing from Irene's back and concludes it was removed to avoid it turning cancerous - which Moriarty would not care about, unless she was working for Moriarty. Berating him for not trusting her, Irene storms out. One of Moriarty's agents discovers he is to be killed, but defeats his would-be assassins and tries to kill Sherlock (in defiance of Moriarty's strict orders). The agent wounds Sherlock and reveals that Moriarty is a woman. The agent is shot and killed by Irene, who now speaks with a British accent. Sherlock then realizes that she is Moriarty.
24	24	"Heroine"	John Polson	Robert Doherty and Craig Sweeny	May 16, 2013 (2013-05-16)	8.98^[25]
Moriarty reveals that she faked her murder to distract Sherlock from interfering with her plans, though she did not anticipate his drug overdose. She asks him to let her win and then he can have the United States all to himself. Sherlock uncovers her plan to have the father (Arnold Vosloo) of a woman she kidnapped, in addition to smuggling in two lemurs, murder a family associated with the Macedonian naming dispute to make $1 billion trading in currency. He fails to stop the murders after the family's security officer betrays them, and vents his rage against Joan and Gregson. Sherlock purchases drugs and injects himself in the bathroom of the brownstone, where Bell finds him. Moriarty visits him in the hospital, confessing to her part in the murder. She invites him to leave the country with her, where she will help him overcome his addiction. Sherlock reveals that Joan analyzed Moriarty's behavior and concluded that she was in love with Sherlock and thus would return to him; they relied on Moriarty's agents to witness his wild behavior and let her think that she won. The overdose was faked and Moriarty is arrested, Sherlock having recorded their conversation.

Gareth Lestrade (Sean Pertwee), a Scotland Yard inspector who worked with Sherlock, is missing. Sherlock and Joan locate Lestrade at a bar in London and agree to help solve the case that caused him to be suspended. Lestrade accused wealthy Lawrence Pendry of killing his wife, but had no proof. Pendry claimed that an armed intruder shot her; the police arrived within minutes and the gun could not be found. A plastic gun turns out to have been made using a 3D printer; Pendry later dissolved it in acetone in a milk bottle after shooting his wife. Pendry's handyman is later found stabbed to death. Pendry printed a second gun to tie up a loose end. The gun exploded when he fired it because he used the wrong ammunition, so he had to stab the handyman with a knife. Pendry's arm injuries from the explosion secure his arrest. Meanwhile, Sherlock discovers that his brother Mycroft moved into his old apartment at 221B Baker Street. Mycroft tells Joan that he wants to make amends with Sherlock after facing a cancer diagnosis and subsequent bone marrow transplant.
26	2	"Solve for X"	Jerry Levine	Jeffrey Paul King	October 3, 2013 (2013-10-03)	9.38^[27]
Mathematician Felix Soto is murdered. His walls are covered in invisible ink with his work, which is about the P versus NP problem, one that has bedeviled mathematicians. Soto's research partner Cyril Nauer is also murdered, and a mugger was shot and left for dead after seeing the killer leave Soto's apartment. The proof that P equals NP would be worth millions. Professor Tanya Barrett (Lynn Collins) evaluated Soto's work and said that they were not near a solution. Sherlock deducts that Barrett solved the problem herself, but needed more time to cash in on it. Barrett is arrested, but the federal government takes over in the interest of national security. Meanwhile, Joan meets with the son of the patient she lost during surgery; she gave up her medical career after that death. The son asks her for money to invest in a bar.

Sherlock and Mycroft promise not to turn her in as long as she pays back her victims, with the exception of Aguilar.

However, Mrs. Gale suggested the will change herself. Haley turns out to have been ill the week before she died. Ian later dies.

Bundsch is brought in anyway, but passes a polygraph test. However, Sherlock deduces that Bundsch fooled the test and concludes Bundsch was responsible for Allie's murder, as well as others. Bundsch abuses his victims for weeks before killing them. Bundsch goads Sherlock, humiliating him and Joan at one point with a wild goose chase. He texts Sherlock, using an untraceable burner phone, the address of the woman he has just taken.

Silas Cole, a schizophrenic young man, dressed as a knight, wanders into the police station with a gun and states that he had to kill the queen. Silas's ex-girlfriend is dead, shot through the heart. However, Sherlock is convinced that Cole did not kill her; his "knight's code" would have prohibited destroying her heart, thought in medieval times to house the soul. In the course of their investigation, Sherlock unintentionally gets a man fired by revealing he is out on parole. Bell is shot in the stomach, jumping in front of Sherlock when the man comes gunning for him. The victim's heart later turns out to have been enlarged; she was participating in a trial drug program, and her doctor killed her to cover up the drug's failure.

Later, the dealer's body is found in a dumpster behind an art gallery in which he is a silent partner. It turns out that Jacob Weiss, a client of Hauser's who runs a nonprofit recovering money for the heirs of Holocaust victims, was embezzling the funds. He used the gallery to launder the money.

On the case, they are reunited and forced to work with Gareth Lestrade, who is now consulting for one of the CEOs involved in the case. Videotape from the hotel attached to the restaurant leads Sherlock and Joan to suspect that Lestrade is covering up his boss's involvement.

The DNA matches that of Cushing's wife, Sarah. At the ransom exchange, Cushing pursues the suspect and unintentionally kills him. Clues on the suspect's body lead Sherlock and Joan to an AA meeting, where they find Sarah, who is both alive and not earless. Sarah says that the DNA they collected when she disappeared was not hers and belongs to her husband's mistress; however, she died in 2011 in a car accident. Sherlock realizes that Sarah's plastic surgeon husband grew two exact replicas of her ears on her back and then cut them off in an elaborate attempt to collect the ransom from Cushing.

Researcher Barry Granger has been testing the "Hound", a breathalyzer for detecting cancer. He is eventually murdered. His research was alleged as fraud by an expert in the field under the pseudonym Adam Peer. The allegation looks set to ruin both Granger and the firm that employed him, a company run by Hank Prince. The allegation is actually false, and Peer was two people: Granger and another. Prince later murders his wife. Earlier he had tried to trash his firm's value by masquerading as Peer and impugning Granger, so that she would receive in their divorce only some of the company's depressed value, which would then rebound once Granger's research was vindicated. Bell, recovered from his injury and returned to field duty, asks Joan to find a missing witness to a street killing. She changed her mind about testifying after she became pregnant and is hiding with a former tutor, Manny Rose (Ron Canada). Bell tells Rose to tell the witness that her testifying does not matter as they will get the perpetrator next time. The killer and Rose are later found shot to death - Rose decided to dispense his own vigilante justice.

Bite marks on two murdered women echo the trademark of Aaron Colville, a man convicted as a serial killer who subsequently died in prison. This raises the question of Colville's possible innocence. The bite marks are traced to ex-con Alan Vikner with the help of hacker collective Everyone. However, when he is brought in, Vikner shows that he has dentures; eight sets were made from the same mold (of Colville's teeth) for inmates at Colville's prison. Eventually, Sherlock and Joan eliminate all the convicts as suspects. Finally, Sherlock realizes that the person who stands to benefit the most from exonerating Colville is his mother, who has sued the city for millions of dollars in his alleged wrongful conviction. Joan has a connection with the murders, as she was a part of the operating team that tried to save Colville's life. She suspects that the doctor in charge recognized Colville and may have deliberately erred in the resuscitation procedure. She has no proof, and the doctor tells her that he himself is not sure if he did or not.

When a pickpocket collapses in jail, Joan starts to help, then realizes he seems to have contracted anthrax.

He had the expertise to make anthrax spores, but they find him dead at his storage locker laboratory. From the empty trays there, Sherlock deduces he made 40 pounds of the stuff. Eugene MacIntosh, a member of an anti-government group known as the Sovereign Army, becomes the prime suspect. He is shot dead by his brother Bart when he goes to Bart's failing farm. However, it turns out that the brothers were actually trying to kill off Bart's herd of cows for a multimillion-dollar insurance scam. Sherlock's close friend Alistair dies, which catches Sherlock off guard. He reacts by acting out of character, causing Joan to go into sober companion mode and making him talk about it. After it gets out that Alistair died of a heroin overdose, Sherlock struggles even more. Eventually, he confesses to Alistair at his grave that he loved him dearly and will miss him.

Sherlock and Joan investigate the disappearance of Paige, the sister of a woman who frequents Sherlock's sobriety meetings. At the brownstone, they are surprised by Mycroft, who returned to New York, apparently to focus on Diogenes. Later, Joan meets Sherlock at a park he found based on a clue in one of Paige's songs. The pair find two bodies there, Paige's and that of a Zach Piller, who manufactured drones for a company called McCarthy-Strauss. The two victims were killed by Piller's drones. Sherlock later visits Diogenes and sees Guillaume de Soto, a high-ranking member of French drug cartel Le Milieu. Sherlock then captures a drone that was spying on him. Piller's psychiatrist says that he accidentally misidentified ten undercover CIA agents in Afghanistan, who were then killed by friendly fire. He subsequently wrote a report on it out of guilt. The psychiatrist is eventually poisoned by another drone. To incriminate McCarthy-Strauss, Sherlock waits at a pier to meet with the business executive that Piller's report belongs to, while Joan breaks into the executive's office and steals the report. That night, Joan follows de Soto's contact (Henri Lubatti) outside Diogenes after he receives an envelope. She retrieves the envelope, but finds a picture of herself inside. The contact kidnaps her.
46	22	"Paint It Black"	Lucy Liu	Robert Hewitt Wolfe	May 1, 2014 (2014-05-01)	7.79^[47]
Mycroft receives a call from Joan's kidnapper. Le Milieu previously offered Mycroft money to open up Diogenes in New York to serve as their headquarters, followed by various requests. Meanwhile, Swiss bank executive Pierce Norman plans to sell a list of thousands of bank executives' names and information to the black market. The NSA is onto Norman, but Sherlock wants to get to him first. Norman's boyfriend points the brothers to a remote home his lover owned. There, they find Norman's corpse. Norman was killed before the list was downloaded and was framed. Joan, meanwhile, operates on a Le Milleu soldier who was shot in the abdomen. She insists that the man be taken to a hospital or he will die; her kidnapped shoots him. That night, Sherlock and Mycroft track down the real perpetrator, Norman's employer's head of security, Kurt Yoder (Michael Gaston). Yoder is interrogated that night at the brownstone and eventually mentions the hard drive the list is on. After recovering it, Sherlock decides to call the NSA, fearing that Le Milieu will betray them, but Mycroft, who is under orders from a British contact, incapacitates Sherlock with a taser and heads out to meet the dealers, while the NSA later refuses Sherlock's requests to save Joan. Mycroft gives Yoder and the list to the dealers, but de Soto orders his henchmen to kill them, and leaves. Mycroft signals British Intelligence snipers, who kill de Soto's men.
47	23	"Art in the Blood"	Guy Ferland	Bob Goodman	May 8, 2014 (2014-05-08)	7.54^[48]
Sherlock returns home to find Joan safe. Mycroft is actually working for MI6. MI6 utilized Mycroft's observational skills to investigate criminal groups such as Le Milieu. Mycroft's handler, Tim Sherrington (Ralph Brown), wanted Sherlock out of New York. Sherrington hires Sherlock to investigate the murder of Arthur West, an MI6 analyst. West's arms were stolen from the morgue. West's estranged wife, Marion (Emily Bergl) is a tattoo artist; she tattooed West's arms with information using invisible ink. West was confident that there was a mole within MI6, communicating with bookstore owner Julian Afkhami. Sherrington eventually offers Sherlock a job at MI6. Marion, meanwhile, tells Joan about one "Sudomo Han". Mycroft had left MI6, but rejoined in exchange for Sherlock's freedom. While he was a drug addict in Britain, Sherlock had worked for Han as a courier, unaware that the latter was a terrorist. Joan and Mycroft eventually have sex. Elsewhere, Sherlock learns that the gun used to kill West bore fingerprints bearing a distinctive scar. He identifies the fingerprints as Mycroft's.
48	24	"The Grand Experiment"	John Polson	Robert Doherty and Craig Sweeny	May 15, 2014 (2014-05-15)	7.37^[49]
Mycroft is being framed as the mole, so Sherlock relocates him and Joan to a vacant, remote library accessible only to Sherlock. The three identity Sherrington as the mole, but decide to keep it quiet. Sherrington eventually visits Joan at the brownstone to confront her, but Joan had invited members of "Everyone" to a video chat to have witnesses for protection. Sherrington leaves. He had made seventeen calls to his contact Afkhami, who is spying for the Iranian government. Sherlock and Joan investigate a murder believed to be linked to Afkhami. He deduces that the victim was stoned to death. Afkhami's wife was having an affair, so he killed her lover. Sherrington betrayed MI6 because of a lack of promotion or respect due, he believes, to his working-class background. The NYPD later finds Sherrington's corpse. Mycroft made a deal with the NSA for them to kill Sherrington and fake Mycroft's own death to protect Joan and the brothers from Le Milieu. Mycroft embraces Sherlock and says that he loves him. While Joan makes plans to move into a new apartment, Sherlock accepts MI6's invitation to join them.

Six months after Joan moved out, she is running her own investigation firm and helps bust female drug kingpin Elana March (Gina Gershon). Two months later, the case has gone stagnant and the key witness in the prosecution of the kingpin is murdered in a hotel elevator. To her surprise, Joan discovers Sherlock has returned with a new protégé named Kitty Winter (Ophelia Lovibond), and is working on the case as well, after being fired from MI6. The three must find a way to get along and work together while finding the murderer, a skilled hitman (Brennan Brown). Sherlock solves the "locked room" mystery of the elevator - the murderer placed spent bullets carefully in the elevator and used an extremely powerful electromagnet to propel them into the two victims from his hotel room next to the elevator. Joan realises that while the killer brought the disassembled parts of the magnet into the hotel in luggage and packages, he could not take them out quickly. She finds the parts hidden in his shower seat. Fingerprints inside the rubber gloves used to handle the magnet identify the murderer.
50	2	"The Five Orange Pipz^[c]"	Larry Teng	Bob Goodman	November 6, 2014 (2014-11-06)	7.07^[51]
A double murder appears to be revenge for the deaths of children poisoned by GHB, the inadvertent result of cost-cutting measures taken by the Indian manufacturer of toy beads. Each of the victims received five orange beads in the mail. The father of one of the children confesses, but Sherlock deduces that he is lying. FBI agent Vince Boden refuses to provide whatever information the agency has, citing policy. Evidence vital to the case against the murdered men has gone missing, which complicates figuring out the motive for the crimes. At first, Sherlock suspects the prosecutor, US Attorney Angela White, as the collapse of her case would end her ambition to be elected to a Senate seat. White admits to being blackmailed by one of the murdered men, but denies killing them. Then Sherlock realises who the killer is. Boden wanted the case to never come to trial, so he could then easily steal the no-longer-needed evidence: the GHB, an addictive drug worth millions of dollars on the black market.
51	3	"Just a Regular Irregular"	Jerry Levine	Robert Hewitt Wolfe	November 13, 2014 (2014-11-13)	6.53^[52]
Mathematician Harlan Emple (Rich Sommer)^[d] comes across a dead body packed in mothballs while participating in a "math hunt", a number game with a puzzle involving Belphegor's prime. When another body is found, it is believed that the game is intended to be a death trap for mathematicians or, as it turns out, one mathematician in particular. Meanwhile, Joan tries to convince Kitty, who was a rape victim, to join a support group.
52	4	"Bella"	Guy Ferland	Craig Sweeny	November 20, 2014 (2014-11-20)	6.49^[53]
Software developer Edwin Borstein has created an artificial intelligence (AI) program called Bella, and he hires Sherlock because someone has broken into his company and stolen a copy of the program. Sherlock takes the case, not because he finds it interesting, but because he does not believe AI is achievable. He solves the theft case, but then Borstein dies from a fatal epileptic seizure, seemingly caused by Bella through rapidly cycling images displayed on Borstein's monitor. Sherlock finds a program hidden on a music CD death metal fan Borstein was given. Eventually he traces the criminal to a think tank that believes that AI is the greatest threat to human existence. He is confident that its leading light, computer science professor Isaac Pike, is responsible, but a devotee confesses, despite having no programming skills. Meanwhile, Joan's boyfriend Andrew receives a job offer that would take him to Copenhagen, and Joan wonders if Sherlock is responsible for it.
53	5	"Rip Off"	John Polson	Jason Tracey	November 27, 2014 (2014-11-27)	6.11^[54]
A severed hand is seen in a street puddle. It belongs to the corpse of Orthodox Jew Moshe Shapiro. Shapiro owned a Postal Unlimited store nearby. A hidden safe contains Moshe's ledger. Moshe turns out to have been a diamond smuggler. Sherlock deduces that weightlifter Dana Kazmir ripped the hand off. Kazmir confesses to the murder and provides a list of three other people he was supposed to kill, which includes Amit Hattengatti, the store's only employee. The NYPD intercept a cash payment to Kazmir, and the envelope matches the office supplies in Moshe's shop. Amit was actually Moshe's smuggling partner. He had plotted with Kazmir and Kazmir's corrupt lawyer to make it look like he was a murder target to deflect suspicion. (Moshe had reformed and was planning to end his smuggling operation.) Kazmir, doomed to jail anyway, lied in return for a payout for his family. Amit eventually names his diamond supplier. Meanwhile, Sherlock gets Kitty to sign a non-disclosure agreement after finding Joan's unpublished "The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes". Gregson punches a policeman, who had twice abused Gregson's daughter Hannah.
54	6	"Terra Pericolosa"	Aaron Lipstadt	S : Jeffrey Paul King; S/T : Bob Goodman	December 4, 2014 (2014-12-04)	6.59^[55]
Joan returns from Denmark. Kitty is called to a museum, where valuable old maps and a security guard are missing. The guard is dead. One particular map was the target; the rest were taken just to camouflage that fact. That map, "The County of King James, Virginia, 1794", was loaned to the museum by a now-deceased member of the Bray family decades before. The family's charitable organization still exists, and is run by Margaret Bray. The thief is ex-cartography student Stuart Zupco, who turns up dead. The missing maps are found at his framing shop, but the Bray map is a forgery. It and the original are almost identical, except the course of a section of a river has been altered. That one change provides the motive. A billion-dollar casino, envisioned by real estate mogul William Hull (Skipp Sudduth), is to be built on land affected by the alteration.

Joan's new client wants to find out about her sister, Jessica Holder, who disappeared five years before. The smell of nutmeg was detected at the site of Jessica's disappearance and those of others.

In Sing Sing, Carpenter admits that he outsourced her murder, but the killer is now dead. A new crime scene with the scent of nutmeg is found. The murders are connected only by the same cleaner being employed to dissolve the bodies, who masked the odors of the cleaning concoction with nutmeg. At an institute which offers certification in cleaning up crime scenes, Sherlock spots a lurid mural featuring nutmeg. The artist, Conrad Woodbine, is the cleaner, but refuses to identify any of his clients and is himself murdered and cleaned. Carpenter's youngest son was Woodbine's apprentice. He killed him on Carpenter's orders. Sherlock and Joan promise that if Carpenter calls his son and tells him to work with the police, they will make sure that he is put in a safer prison. Carpenter agrees.

Flynn, a Highway Patrol officer, is murdered; his sidearm had been replaced with an airsoft gun. Flynn was a drug addict. He stole guns from the police department's Rodman's Neck Armory, replacing them with airsoft guns, and sold the real weapons to fund his addiction. His buyer, Buros, a wanted arms dealer, already had buyers lined up for the prized military-grade police weapons, but Flynn, now clean, refused to obtain more for him. Buros killed Flynn, as he would be given an inspector's funeral attended by thousands of police officers, leaving the Armory poorly guarded, but Flynn's crimes came to light and his special funeral was canceled. So Buros kills another officer to cause another such funeral. He steals the weapons. Watson identifies the white fibers he left at both murder scenes as upholstery fibers - Buros plans to ship the weapons hidden inside furniture. He is arrested after his cargo shipment is traced. Meanwhile, Sherlock finds the person posting his personal statements made in sobriety meetings on a recovery blog, and insists they take the blog down, as anonymity is vital for the success of the meetings.

A nurse Joan knew is missing. The woman's trail leads to an illegal human drug trial of EZM-77, a time-dilating substance. Five test subjects were injected. The higher the dose the madder they went (one killed the missing nurse, who administered the drug) and they die or are murdered. Carlisle, on the lowest dose, survives and his interview leads to Purgatorium, a company which paid the test subjects $150,000 up front and promised the same amount every year. The drug's inventor, Dwyer Kirk, takes responsibility for the deaths. His sponsor, James Connaughton, paid for Kirk's education and gave his aunt a stipend to help raise him. When Connaughton learned that he was dying, he approached Kirk, who agreed to try to develop a "pharmaceutical fountain of youth" so that its time-dilating properties would make his last days feel like years. The trial subjects were executed to cover it up. Connaughton's new nurse connects him with Purgatorium and with two hitmen he hired to murder the test subjects. The police come for Connaughton, who appears non-responsive; he has injected himself with EZM-77, hoping to "extend" what little time he has left to live.

Sherlock examines both plants and realizes that Clay cloned the orchid twice. Two AgriNext executives are murdered by the same burning tire necklace method, and their bodies dumped in front of the AgriNext building. However, the rope is different from that used in Clay's murder. Conway admits that AgriNext offered Clay a job and was trying to buy out his relationship with the SDS. The police arrest the SDS member guilty of the AgriNext murders. He denies killing Clay. Conway turns out to have killed Clay because he was seeing his ex-girlfriend again.

A woman is murdered, and her premortem back scars resemble Kitty's. A burner phone left at a bar the woman was at leads the NYPD to a suspect, Simon DeMerville (P.J. Sosko). Simon works for a brothel that kidnaps illegal immigrants, and in his property is the body of one of the brothel's suppliers, as well as women captives. Simon might have been injured during the lethal confrontation with the supplier and went to his sister Violet (Tammy Blanchard) for assistance. Kitty beats Violet into cooperating with the NYPD. Violet calls Simon to allow the NYPD to triangulate the call. Simon is aboard a boat; a bartender (David Valcin) and former neighbor of Simon's has one. However, the boat, stored at the owner's house, is burned, with Simon locked inside. At the morgue, Kitty inspects the body and insists that Simon was not her rapist; she had broken her captor's fingers in her escape, and Simon's fingers are intact. Later, Joan, who has settled into her new job at the insurance firm, calls her new boss, Del Gruner (Stuart Townsend). Kitty, overhearing the conversation, recognizes the voice of her rapist.

The wife of missing lawyer Steven Horowitz hires Sherlock to find him. Sherlock and Joan discover that he did not tell his wife he had been fired by his firm. They find out that he went to work for a debt collection agency and was given a debt package worth millions. Sherlock and Joan try to narrow down the pool of suspects from the thousands of debtors. It turns out that Horowitz had a change of heart after seeing the hardships suffered by the debtors and forgave what he had not yet collected. One of those released from their financial burden is a man named Downey. A company wants to create a ski resort; Downey is the sole holdout, refusing to sell his house, which happens to be at the center of the resort. Horowitz's former boss killed him because he stood in the way of the law firm collecting millions in fees from the developer. Meanwhile, Andrew asks Joan to dinner to meet his father for the first time. Sherlock warns her that this is a significant step in their romantic relationship, but she dismisses the idea, until she discovers she is wrong. She concludes she must break up with Andrew. While she is doing so, he is poisoned.

Elana March tells Joan she had Andrew murdered in revenge. Sherlock enlists Detective Bell to help him find two missing pregnant zebras stolen from a zoo. A trademarked color provides the first clue; the color is only used on delivery vans for one company. They eventually find the zebras, who have given birth. They also find a veterinarian, shot dead; he was forced to help with the induced premature births. They later find a quagga, which went extinct over a century before. The zoo's staff are gathered at the police station. Sherlock identifies the real murderer, a PhD student. The killer escapes police surveillance through an old speakeasy tunnel. Realizing that the student needs to raise funds for his getaway, Sherlock wins the online auction for the second quagga and sets a trap. Later, Joan receives a letter from Moriarty. It says that she had Elana murdered because Moriarty feels that she will have further interactions with Sherlock, and secondarily Joan as well, so no interloper can be allowed to interfere. Despite the confession, Sherlock doubts that they will find any evidence to connect Elana's murder to Moriarty.

Sherlock and Joan investigate two murders in which the killer leaves envelopes of cash on the victims equating to their "worth". The probe leads the two to investigate an airline crash which killed over 80 people and the amount that each would receive as wrongful death compensation according to an equation formulated by attorney Arlen Schrader. When Dana Powell (Alicia Witt), the wife of one of the crash victims, reports being shot at from her back yard, Sherlock becomes suspicious, as the first two shootings were at short range. Powell gives a seemingly tone-deaf television interview, which forces the airline to drop its method of calculation to making the same flat payment to each next-of-kin. This is puzzling, as Powell's husband was a highly successful broker. Then they discover that the husband had a fatal disease, with only a few months to live. The police obtain a search warrant for her mansion, where they find incriminating evidence. Meanwhile, Joan moves into the basement at the brownstone, and seals the interior door so that in future she will have a physically separate space, but still be able to work closely with Sherlock.

A woman named Maria Gutierrez vanishes in 2011. Her body is found three years later. Sherlock wrote a signed note found in her purse, giving his address and a meeting time, but says that he does not know her. However, he was a heavy drug user then, which caused blackouts and memory loss. Maria worked as a cleaner at the offices of Councilman Robert Barclay. Junkie Oscar Rankin knew Maria and had boasted of knowing Sherlock. Maria met with Sherlock and brought bloodied clothes belonging to Barclay. She had seen him take off the clothes and throw them away. Barclay had been having an affair with Kelsey Prior, a friend's wife, but when she tried to end it, he stabbed her. Barclay decided to dump his bag of blood-stained clothes somewhere secure, but found that it was missing. He guessed that Maria had taken it and lured her from Frobisher Motel in Bayside, where Sherlock often stashed witnesses who were in danger. Barclay killed Maria and hid her body, and Sherlock, high on drugs, forgot her. Barclay confesses. Sherlock encourages Oscar to quit heroin and gives him a paid reservation at a rehabilitation center, feeling responsible for Oscar's condition.

A distracted driver is killed after colliding with a van and discovering that it carries corpses. The driver's body is partially mummified, by the coolant R22. Sherlock's investigation leads to a cryogenics facility owned by a cash-strapped company that preserves the bodies of clients in the hope that future advances can revive them. There, the corpse of strangled psychiatrist Jim Sullivan, has been stolen. New patient Vance Ford provided a sketch of the murderer. Ford, however, is lying. Later, Ford is found strangled as well, which seems odd, as he was near death from leukemia anyway. The man in the sketch is actually a now-deceased actor from a movie.^[f] Ford and Sullivan were estranged cousins. Sullivan was a match for a bone marrow transplant, which could have saved Ford's life, but he refused to donate it. Ford killed him and stole the body, as the bone marrow, even after being frozen, would still be usable. Ford recruited two henchmen, who worked at the cryonics lab. With the investigation closing in, they panicked and killed Ford the same way as Sullivan. Meanwhile, Joan has trouble convincing her mother to seek help for her failing mind.

Galen Barrow, a driver for ridesharing company Zooss, is run over by a city cab. The murder was staged to look like professional rivalry. Barrow was an internet journalist and had begun working for Zooss recently. Registered sex offender Gordon Meadows admits to having killed Barrow; he was blackmailed into it after he broke his parole. Barrow's internet journalism employer, Lydia Guerrero, was having an affair with Barrow and was also being blackmailed by an anonymous texter. Despite her opposition, Barrow insisted on hunting the blackmailer. Zooss CEO Eric Frazier orders technician Brandon Felchek to hand over to the police computer program Olympus, which records user details and tracks all rides. A man named Patrick Kemp worked for Zooss before a mugger killed him a month earlier. Patrick turns out to have been the blackmailer at Zooss. Falchek is eventually arrested: he had cut off Patrick's access to Olympus months before on discovering that he was blackmailing users, not to protect Zooss or its users but to avoid drawing attention to his own crime; Falchek was using Olympus to stalk Felice Armistead and broke into her home where she surprised him and he broke her cheekbone.

Everyone member "Species", real name Errol White, is killed by a now-missing samurai sword. It is later revealed that Species was secretly two people, an arrangement that allowed Species to always be online. The other half of Species is someone named Bradley Dietz. Dietz killed White when he rejected Dietz's idea of hacking think tank the Atherton Foundation, feeling that it was too dangerous. Dietz is capitalising on Everyone's sympathy for Species's death to gain power, and the hack is imminent. When confronted, Dietz is rescued by FBI Agent Branch, who provides an alibi. Branch wants Everyone to hack Atherton, which coordinates FBI and Homeland Security investigations with the internal security departments of major corporations. If Everyone hacks Atherton, the group would be arrested for treason and Branch would gain rapid promotion. Sherlock knows Branch's secret (knowingly exploiting an illegal immigrant) and will report her unless she gives the police an anonymous tip on where to find the sword. Everyone is warned about Atherton, so Dietz becomes useless to her. Branch caves in. Dietz is arrested.

Debunker Garrison Boyd is killed. Boyd accused real estate developer Collin Eisley of trying to scare a woman into selling a beach house, as she was hearing unusual noises. This was actually the result of tunneling from a neighbor's house. The tunnel's target is Ruby, the world's fastest transatlantic internet cable. Ruby feeds certain investment firms. The digger is Nadim Al-Haj, an Iraqi man. Nadim eventually torches his apartment to destroy evidence and flees. Data went into a device there and came out intact, but with a delay of 4 milliseconds. Those firms had an advantage, as they received data milliseconds earlier than rivals, enough time for computer transactions. Eisley's blind trust is managed by a firm whose computer servers are not there. Eisley hired Nadim to splice in the device to flip the time advantage in favor of his investment company. After Nadim killed Boyd, Eisley paid him with a Picasso to stay quiet. The Picasso has been reported as stolen, rendering it unsellable, so Nadim will eventually make a deal with the authorities. Eisley is encouraged to do the same. Meanwhile, Hannah Gregson asks Joan to help with a case.

Judge Dennis Vaughn is killed with a screwdriver. While in New York City for a fundraiser for a governor's re-election, Vaughn had sex with one of the governor's staffers; her alibi depends on a friend, Andrea Schuster. Fingerprints on the screwdriver belong to Nikki Moreno, who escaped from a correctional facility days earlier. At the for-profit prison, run by Reform Enterprises (RE), Deputy Warden Trey McCann says that Moreno was a troublemaker. Later, McCann is murdered. Jeff Harper, a prisoner rights lawyer, says that Moreno had nothing against Vaughn, but hated McCann, and had no reason to escape or commit murder as he was close to getting her sentence reduced. He says that Moreno was forced into an unpleasant work detail recycling computers, but her prison record shows that she had asked for the detail. Moreno's body appears in a recycling bin. McCann had previously worked for another prison management company. Their executive, Perry Franklin, reveals that McCann was fired for corruption. Andrea Schuster was the re-election campaign manager. The murders were intended to cause the governor to award the new prison contract to Franklin's firm.

Keck's supervisor, Calvin Barnes, had been investigating him. This ceased once Barnes became an invalid after being poisoned. However, Keck has an alibi.

The Parkers lured Nasser to the United States by manufacturing a rising CCD crisis through Keck and kidnap Nasser. Later, Nasser is on a plane (ransom paid).

A sniper shoots nine people, killing four, in the financial district. Morland offers his help with the case, knowing the sniper's identity.

Shooter-for-hire Gagnier was paid by a shell subsidiary of Dynastic Energies. Gagnier dies in a fall when the police attempt to apprehend him. The CEO of Dynastic Energies, Bill Wellstone, was having an affair with his lawyer's wife, Sarah; he discovered that she had left him for plumber Frank Bova, the true target of the shooting. Wellstone used a golf bag to smuggle the sniper's weapon past the security protecting the building, but left behind gun oil residue in the bag that implicates him. Over dinner with Morland, his contact at Interpol, Lukas, says that Morland has not been helping Sherlock out of the goodness of his heart, but rather is risking Sherlock's life. Lukas demands 5 million euros from Morland for keeping Sherlock in the dark about something.

An analysis of the hacked code leads to Pentillion, a company creating automated vehicles, who admit that they were hacked by a rival company with which Zolotov was conducting business. Sherlock speaks with a Russian spy, who says that Zolotov was supposed to be on a government mission, not business. At dinner, Morland mentions that he knows that Mycroft is alive. He also says that he has been banking his own blood and asks Joan if she will check on a blood bank in New York. The involvement of diplomatic negotiations between Russia and Ukraine causes the case to be taken over by federal agents, but Sherlock continues searching for the instigator of the shooting, with Joan asking Morland for information on arms dealers making money off the war. The only one who would profit from the war continuing is Pentillion, by selling rocket engines while the Russian ones were off the market. Joan suspects that Morland was shot once before and may still be a target.

Morland downplays the danger surrounding him by saying that the assassin has been dealt with, a story Sherlock disbelieves. Two weeks later, Sherlock is turning up only empty leads. Sherlock corners Lukas. Startled by Lukas's hostility, Sherlock returns to Morland with the accusation that Morland suspects him of the shooting; Morland admits that Sherlock was, at one time, a suspect. Sherlock demands that he leave New York. Morland apologizes for his suspicions, explains the cause of Lukas's reaction and agrees to return to London. Sherlock says that Lukas's predecessor was spying on Morland, agreeing to investigate the case of Morland's shooting because of his reputation being besmirched. Meanwhile, Lily Cooper, the owner of a halfway house owned by Fairbridge, a for-profit university, suspects that a murder is more than it seems. A team of thieves witnessed the murder. Bell obtains a sketch of the murder suspect. Then Lily turns up dead as well. The man in the sketch is identified by the halfway house staff but, while he confesses to both murders, Bell finds that he has an alibi for Lily's.

Toby's journals are found to be full of descriptions of ways to kill Janet, but his alibi leads Sherlock to suspect his father of killing her to protect his son. When confronted with the possibility of Toby going to jail, his father confesses. Detective Cortez unexpectedly asks for Joan's help finding an elusive suspect. Joan is frustrated when Cortez refuses to explain her questionable rationale. Sherlock suspects that Joan is being framed for an assault. Cortez reveals that she committed the assault as an act of justice — the man she attacked had violently assaulted a girl, leaving her with permanent brain damage — and requests Joan's help in the future, noting that she and Sherlock have taken similar actions in the past. Joan instead threatens to expose her if she ever does it again.

Undercover cop Ryan Dunning believes that the gang leader stores everything about the gang's operations on a computer in his office.

The man and his partner wanted to incite a police raid on the gang, but his partner doublecrossed him. When the police search the headquarters, the computer is sent to officer Lisa Hagen to crack the encryption. However, Hagen was actually Dunning's partner.

Three members of a Chinese triad are murdered. Hoping to prevent a gang war, Gregson turns to Sherlock and Joan. Sherlock deduces the victims let their killer into an arcade late at night. The crimes are traced to a mortician who, using his skill at creating lifelike masks for his disfigured clients, disguised himself as an old woman the triad members trusted. The mortician is terminally ill and, masquerading as the triad's leader, orders the head of an assisted living facility (who is involved in a triad scam) to funnel the fraudulently obtained funds to a new bank account in order to provide for his family. Sherlock and Joan scam their way into the house of the daughter of Morland's lover Sabine because Sherlock suspects that Sabine was involved in the assassination attempt that cost her her life.

Billionaire real estate mogul William Hull^[k] is buying up properties' air rights to build a 63-story edifice designed by architect Malcolm Busquet. Graham's death deprives him of the air rights to her building.

Venture capitalist Charles Baskerville is struck and killed by a truck while fleeing for his life from what an unreliable witness describes as a large glowing animal. Charles' brother Henry (Tom Everett Scott) believes that it might have been murder. The animal breaks into Henry's mansion while he is on the phone with Sherlock; Sherlock deduces in time that the animal is actually a robot (developed for the US Army) and instructs Henry on how to save himself. The robot ends up falling into Henry's empty pool. The invention is traced to Stapleton Innovations. The CEO turns out to be the Baskervilles' sole surviving relative Roger; he stands to inherit a family trust if both Charles and Henry die.

A survivalist doctor goes missing, leaving behind evidence that he was selling prescription drugs to dealers. When his body turns up, the investigation turns to the Keep, a deluxe shelter for wealthy survivalists. Sherlock exposes the Keep as a scam, determining that the victim attempted to cover his drug dealing by stealing the shelter's stock of medications, only to discover that they did not exist. The man's business partner, who helped him break into the shelter, killed him and framed the survivalists to keep their practice from going under. Sherlock has been treating Fiona as someone special, but his uncharacteristic slow approach only leads her to feel like she is a problem for him to solve, so she breaks up with him. He explains that he has been even less successful at personal relationships than her (one lover to her two) and was trying so hard because he wants to make things work. She reconsiders and tells him she wants to have sex, right then and there.

Exiting a gym late at night, Phoebe Elliot spots a car she thinks is her ride share, but is shot and killed. Sherlock and Joan come across a selfie the victim took, which was later enlarged and sold as "art". The art gallery where the piece was exhibited was broken into, and several works were stolen, but not the selfie. However, Sherlock notices that the selfie has been replaced with another with some background details removed, details which seem to provide an alibi for a man imprisoned for the murder of Marissa Kagan. Sherlock now suspects that Elliot was killed because she spotted the alteration. Kagan was having an affair with a married woman; when Kagan pressed her lover to get a divorce, she was killed by her lover's wife. The killer wanted to turn herself in, but her wife and Kagan's lover, Assistant District Attorney Christina Pullman, talked her out of it and proceeded to murder Elliot to cover up the first killing.

During an apparent carjacking gone wrong, both the driver and the carjacker are shot dead. However, many details do not fit that story; for example, the alleged carjacker was left-handed, but the gun ended up next to his right hand. It turns out that the carjacker was actually a hitman hired by the driver's partner in a struggling business. The partner was being pressured by the target to sell some seemingly worthless property. The partner, however, knew that it held rare "old-growth ginseng" worth tens of millions. The driver and the hitman decided instead to stage a phony murder to blackmail the partner. The driver's wife confronted him during the staged scene and killed both men, having found out that her husband was planning to abandon her and start a new life in Tahiti. When she shot her husband, the recoil knocked her hand back against the car door, dislodging the diamond from her ring. The diamond remained undetected amid the shattered window glass, until Sherlock figured out what happened. Meanwhile, multiple people die during an armed robbery in a diner, one of them is Emil Kurtz, Joan's mole in Morland's organization.

Sherlock is furious with Joan because she did not inform him about her recruitment/blackmailing of a person in Morland's organization. The two of them suspect Morland of ordering the assassination in the diner, but the evidence points elsewhere after the suspect confesses to both it and another murder for hire by the same person two weeks earlier. The first victim, Patricia Naylor, was a psychiatrist who had devised an online survey called the Depravity and Atrocity Numeration Test (DANTE), which asked takers to choose the least terrible of sets of disgusting options to help set sentencing guidelines for heinous crimes. However, Sherlock suspects the survey has been used to instead identify psychopaths who can be recruited. He discovers that Naylor's lab assistant was selling test results to a person she initially thought was with the CIA. The names used by the contact, two holders of the chair of mathematics at Cambridge, alert Sherlock of the involvement of his longtime adversary, Moriarty.

New evidence on the hitman surfaces, after which Morland appears at the brownstone trying unsuccessfully to coerce Sherlock into giving up the name of the caretaker. The Russian hitman is arrested, but does not share any useful information. Sherlock notices corrosion on his belt and a distinct smell, identifying what propellant was used in the bombing. This points to the upstate theft of a pesticide barrel and a missing person. Meanwhile, Vikner summons Sherlock to discuss a possible truce with Morland. However, Sherlock says that Morland will only be satisfied with his death. As the team prepares for an interview with the DA, the prisoner is assassinated in a murder-suicide by a rookie cop who turns out to be one of the psychopaths flagged in the DANTE survey. When Sherlock and Joan return home, they find a bomb identical to the first one. Morland reveals that May, Sherlock's mother, was also a drug addict.
96	24	"A Difference in Kind"	John Polson	Jason Tracey and Robert Doherty	May 8, 2016 (2016-05-08)	5.46^[96]
Sherlock disarms the bomb and deduces that it was not arranged by Vikner, but by a rival who wants to frame him and make him the target of Moriarty's vengeance; Moriarty has ordered her organization to not harm Sherlock and Joan. Sherlock and Joan find out with help from Morland that the bomber is connected to an Iranian diplomat in the organization, Hashemi. She reveals that she and others wanted someone with more finesse to take charge - Morland. However, Vikner disposed of his inside rivals and targeted Morland. She also reveals the enormity of the world-wide organization. Sherlock, Joan and Morland frame Vikner for a federal crime, but he vanishes, tipped off by a contact inside the FBI. Morland, to protect Sherlock, dismisses his security detail and meets Vikner. However, Hashemi's people kill Vikner. Morland meets Sherlock on the brownstone's rooftop, revealing that he has taken over leadership of the organization because it can only be dismantled from within and that it was the only way to guarantee he would not lose his son. He also promises that the organization will no longer have a presence in New York and prepares to return to London.

Representatives of both mainland China and Taiwan want it, the latter offering Sherlock $50 million for it. While examining the site of the auction for the seal, Sherlock notices two indentations on a metal rail under a garage door; they come from an armored luxury car. This leads to Wayne Vachs (Ron Rifkin), the CEO of a large energy company which faces government fines that will ruin it. Vachs won the auction, but did not have the money to pay for it, so he had the smuggler killed. He planned to give the seal back to the mainland Chinese in exchange for a concession on a recently discovered Chinese mineral deposit, worth billions.

Meanwhile, Shinwell asks Joan to locate his teenage daughter, with whom he lost touch while being incarcerated.

A murder at a clothing-optional retreat leads to the investigation of a week-old kidnapping for ransom; the kidnapped woman's husband, the head of a post-production company, had not reported it due to fear for her life. Sherlock investigates the husband, discovering that he stands to make a fortune from a software program's invention, which manipulates video footage. The recording of the wife's kidnapping seems to use the software. Eventually the wife escapes her kidnappers, but Sherlock realizes she faked the kidnapping to gain enough sympathy from her husband, who was looking into divorcing her, that he would wait to divorce her and let their prenuptial agreement expire. This would then net her half of his fortune (including the profits from the new video program) rather than the negligible amount specified under the prenup. Meanwhile, Sherlock learns that Gregson's girlfriend Paige^[n] is going broke because she has lost her insurance and he tries to persuade Gregson to marry her for financial reasons.

Grant Huber, a congresswoman's science advisor and Cole's secret research partner, was a lobbyist for asteroid mining companies and was receiving secret payments to ensure that government decisions would benefit them. The delay or loss of government funding for asteroid research would benefit the mining interests.

Oil from poison ivy from Cole's laptop got on Huber's office couch. Sherlock informs Huber that they may be able to match the DNA to the poison ivy growing near Cole's cabin.

The sole survivor, a vegetarian, says that there are many more defenses, as well as replacements for his deceased colleagues. A video is released, claiming credit for the poisoning and threatening to target the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). In response, the NYSE shuts down operations for the day so its security can be checked by outside experts.

Sherlock has been lying to Joan about attending recovery meetings. Meanwhile, a man's death is caused by eating poisoned sausage made of human meat. The second victim is Joaquin "Joaq" Pereya, a researcher who made a breakthrough in the artificial meat industry. A rival company hired a father-daughter team of assassins. Confronted with evidence for various murders committed by the pair, the daughter admits to eight killings, but denies murdering Joaq. That hit was called off after Joaq's product was tested and classified by the Food and Drug Administration as a meat substitute, not meat. However, the data was doctored to produce that result. The motive was to get it recognized as non-meat, as that would bypass the kosher and halal meat restrictions and open up a vast market. The CEO and a researcher at Joaq's company did the killing and data tampering, respectively, after Joaq refused to fake the data himself. The kosher and halal certifying boards refuse to recognize the artificial meat as pareve (neither meat nor dairy) unless Joaq's murderer is convicted. The researcher is offered an immunity deal, as he is only guilty of data tampering. He takes it, and the CEO is arrested.

Los Espectros gang member Ricky Morales is murdered. The murder weapon is a vintage Nambu pistol, but a .38 pistol is found discarded at the scene. Two suspects fled the scene an hour after the murder. Shinwell matches the description of one. Shinwell was at Ricky's murder scene, but did not kill him; he is back with rival gang SBK (South Bronx Killas) as an FBI confidential informant (CI). He was recruited by Agent Calvin Whitlock. SBK did not kill Ricky as doing so would start a gang war. SBK sent him and Tall Boy to dispose of the body, but when the police came he abandoned the .38. Whitlock is asked to subpoena the .38 to save Shinwell being implicated as a CI. Whitlock refuses; due to treachery from a past CI of his, he was stripped of authority to recruit more CIs, so he was employing Shinwell without authorization. Ricky became Whitlock's CI in return for no prosecution. Whitlock killed Ricky, who wanted to quit being a CI and threatened to expose Whitlock after realizing that he had used Ricky's information to rob Los Espectros. In fact, Whitlock and his associates used CI intelligence to rob four gangs. His partner in crime, Lionel Trafoya, used to work with him at the FBI. Trafoya was wounded during the last robbery. Trafoya is interrogated, and his blood is tested for a match to blood found at the robbery scene. Whitlock commits suicide after phoning Joan to come by and pick up the evidence. Trafoya refuses to cooperate, so Shinwell's role as a CI cannot be confirmed. Sherlock breaks into the crime lab and wipes Shinwell's fingerprints from the .38 before it can be tested.

However, the virus introduced into the water only causes diarrhea. Virologist Raymond Thorpe created it before fleeing the country. Gio Bianchi is a suspect, as his construction company had repeatedly won the contract to build a water filtration plant for the city, a contract that would only be implemented if NYC's disinfection methods are no longer enough. But the one to gain immediately from the superbug is Wendell Hecht, Vice President of Water Integrity at the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), who holds the patent for the only home water filter recommended by the DEP. Since it would take years to build the filtration plant, Hecht would have become rich. Hecht hired Thorpe to contaminate the water supply. Schmitt saw him doing it, so Thorpe killed him. Meanwhile, Bell gets provoked into a fight by the ex-husband of his girlfriend (an assistant district attorney). It is actually a scheme to get her removed from a particular case.

Jack Brunelle, the father of a now-dead assault victim takes a diner hostage to force Sherlock and Joan to solve his son's murder; the police and Sherlock had brushed him off when he tried to get them to investigate. He gives them until midnight to find the culprit, as that is when the statute of limitations runs out. The first hostage Brunelle plans to execute is the detective who botched the initial investigation. With Joan remaining behind as an additional hostage and having hours before the gunman's deadline, Sherlock works with Bell. Apparently, the Shoreline 99s, after losing a turf war with a rival gang, switched from smuggling cocaine to maple syrup, using trucks and barrels. Connor Brunelle was a security guard at the warehouse and was mugged by Shoreline 99s thug Frank Trimble to stop him being on duty on the night of the smuggling. However, Sherlock makes his breakthrough after the deadline apparently expires. However, he finds television footage showing Trimble at a hockey game in Montreal; time spent outside the United States does not count towards the statute of limitations, so Trimble can still be brought to justice.

O.G. Pwnzr, an eSports agent and commentator, is attacked while live-streaming. His body is found in a hotel room. He was tortured for the location of Marcel Otolik, aka Tendu, an Inuit from northern Canada. Tendu recently signed with ProFine Peripherals' eSports team. Animal activist Rayna Carno has been working to ban seal hunting. After Tendu posted a social media photo of himself eating seal meat to promote seal hunting as a vital part of Inuit culture, Carno posted threats. Carno later negotiated a deal with Tendu: Tendu would oppose commercial hunting, while Carno would support much less extensive Inuit hunting. Law firm Mather & Kline was hired to secure Inuit land to build ports on. Tendu and his girlfriend are rescued from Kurt Godwyn, the law firm's "fixer". Godwyn's gun was the one used to beat Owen. Lundquist, of Mather & Kline and Carno's lawyer, is arrested: she helped Carno pressure Tendu's village to end seal hunting to leave them destitute and thus more willing to sell their land. But when Tendu's photos turned public opinion against Carno, and the money he sent to Maniitok enabled the village elders to resist selling, Lundquist ordered the hit on Tendu. Godwyn implicates her. Meanwhile, Shinwell's daughter is harassed by a gang leader. Shinwell solves the problem by offering SBK-controlled street corners for the harasser's drug dealers.

A man named Cy Durning supposedly dies of a heart attack. Kitty Winter later warns Sherlock that Durning was actually murdered, and that he and she are targets. Kitty and Sherlock worked on a case in London, Eli Kotite, an American who committed a fatal hit-and-run while drunk, by accidentally driving on the wrong side of the road. Kitty and Sherlock found Kotite and testified at his trial. He served nearly four years. Since his recent release, Kotite's defense lawyer Tom Saunders, the judge, and now Durning the prosecutor, have been killed under the guise of natural causes. Kotite was maimed in prison by resentful inmates and became disabled, unable to commit murder directly. That night, Durning's body is dug up and incinerated, but the culprit left behind a hair strand, indicating a Caucasian who dyes his hair red. A red-haired henchman is at a private club Kotite attends. The M.E. who did Durning's post-mortem was bribed and insists on death by natural causes despite post-mortem photo evidence to the contrary. Kotite later calls, saying that he knows who the real killer is and asks to meet Sherlock in 30 minutes. Before they can meet, Kotite is murdered. Durning's widow, Kate, saw a red-haired man outside their house as she drove away before he died. FBI agents and soldiers raid the brownstone. The man in charge of the raid is the red-haired suspect. He is Anson Gephardt, a Defense Intelligence Agency officer specialising in Middle Eastern affairs. Gephardt arrests Sherlock. Meanwhile, Joan discovers that Kitty has an infant son.

Gephardt tries to convince Sherlock into ending his investigation by admitting to the murders and threatening to link him to Morland's crimes. But Sherlock continues with the case. The murder victims had witnessed a DIA secret during Kotite's trial and were killed to silence them. Kate Durning gives Joan audio recordings that Cy secretly made of his last court hearings as material for writing a retirement book. At legal firm Farrell & Putnam, lawyer Sydney Garber reveals that employee Tom Saunders, Kotite's lawyer, was a paranoid schizophrenic prone to raving when off his meds. On a Durning tape, Saunders rants at the pre-trial hearing about a 50-pound cyclonite bomb in a Venezuelan toilet. Two days before, a bomb exploded in the bathroom of the Caracas National Library, narrowly missing the Venezuelan president. Saunders mentioning the toilet bomb three years before it happened proves that Gephardt is a rogue agent. A document from Farrell & Putnam that proves Garber knew about the bombing before it occurred. Gephardt tries to kill Garber causing Garber to tell all to the NYPD. His college roommate, Alberto, is now the head of Venezuelan intelligence. Gephardt hired his firm to acquire the Fidel Files from Alberto - a treasure trove containing all the secret intelligence that Cuba's rulers, the Castros, shared with their allies. In return for the Fidel Files, Gephardt agreed to aid Venezuela by carrying out the toilet bombing when required. After the bombing, sympathy votes swung an election in favour of the incumbent president, so Garber received the Fidel Files and gave them to Gephardt. But Garber kept a copy on a USB drive, which he gives NYPD. Gephardt uploads the Fidel Files to the internet, publicly admits illegal actions to obtain them, and flees. The USA government is concerned that a video file shows Iran's nuclear weapons program is more of a threat than feared, and war now looms. On the video "kami" is overheard, a Persian word, confirming Iranian provenance. However, the video is fake, as it was not on Garber's copy. Gephardt secretly added it. Gephart wants the USA to attack Iran. Gephardt is arrested at his mother's house by the FBI. There, Sherlock sees a dog with the name-tag "Kammie", which sounds like the Persian word "kami" - Gephardt faked the Iran video in his mother's basement and she is overheard on tape calling her dog. Later, Sherlock gives NSA Agent McNally, media and other intelligence agencies the materials which prove this. Kitty apologizes to Sherlock and says that they are not friends but family. In St Mark's Church, Joan and Sherlock prepare to become Archie's godparents.
113	17	"The Ballad of Lady Frances"	Aaron Lipstadt	Bob Goodman and Jordan Rosenberg	March 19, 2017 (2017-03-19)	4.28^[113]
Drywaller Darren Azoff is seized by D'Agostino and Reese Vennek. Vennek tortures Azoff, demanding to know where "the Lady Frances" is. Azoff denies knowledge and Vennek kills him. Audio of the incident is recorded by a device attached to a nearby telephone pole, and the live feed heard by monitor Cosmo Dellis. NYPD assumes Frances is a kidnap victim and mounts a search. The device, by BulletPoint, is a surveillance system being piloted by NYC, designed to activate at gunshots. The scheme is a matter of political debate between the mayor and Councilman Slessinger who is running for mayor on a 'be tougher on crime' platform. Azoff's lover's house has goods stolen by Azoff during drywall jobs. Lady Frances is a vintage guitar that Azoff stole, worth $5 million as it was originally Eric Clapton's. Azoff had drywalled Herman Wolf's (Meat Loaf) sound studio and stolen the guitar. Wolf hired Vennek to retrieve it. Vennek went to Azoff's house but it was already gone. At the precinct, Vennek betrays D'Agostino, and admits killing Azoff but denies killing the "second man" - Cosmo, beaten to death with Lady Frances. Cosmo had deleted the address from the BulletPoint recording so he could steal it first. BulletPoint's Thea Moser shows a report that she is about to submit to NYC, showing that Cosmo created fake gunshot incidents for months. Councilman Slessinger eventually admits Cosmo's murder: he got Cosmo, son of a political supporter, employed at BulletPoint to create fake incidents in districts which, once NYPD failed to solve the "crimes", would appear crime-ravaged and boost Slessinger's election campaign. He killed Cosmo with Lady Frances to cut the link to his election-rigging and destroy the guitar evidence. Meanwhile, an attempt on Shinwell's life is made by Damon, brother of Shinwell's friend Jameel, as Shinwell killed Jameel.

Xavier buys the contents, sight unseen, of a storage unit whose owner failed to keep up the payments. Inside he finds valuable goods but also the owner - a corpse, stabbed by a sword. He was Travis Unger who used his job at the Manhattan Public Administrator's Office (MPAO) to steal from people who died intestate. In one victim's MPAO crate, ancestor Captain Emerson Barker's 18th-century chest of seafaring equipment os found, but without the captain's log. Emerson's traders' logs are on public record but he faked them. He was a trader but also a pirate called Black Peter. The missing log forms his pirate records, including the location of sunken treasure from Santa Leticia, a raided ship. Before he vanished, Unger met marine salvager Lars Vestergaard and offered half the treasure in return for salvaging it. Lars says that he rejected the offer, as he already knew the ship's location and treasure contents from researching the Seville Archives a year before, and he obtained the salvage rights from the Admiralty Courts. But after securing investors for the salvage, someone beat him to the ship's treasure. Rival salvager Farhan Al-Asmari admits to taking the Santa Leticia's treasure, after buying Black Peter's log on the dark web. He displays photos of the treasure. A marine archaeologist, who once sabotaged Lars' salvage equipment, says that the Seville archives show there was no treasure on the Santa Leticia. Lars actually oversold shares in the treasure: if any treasure was found he would owe ten times its value, but the investors' contracts stated that they would gain nothing if there was no treasure. When Unger showed him Black Peter's log detailing the Santa Leticia's treasure, Lars knew he faced ruin if his salvage went ahead. He killed Unger with a sword from a past salvage. His ship's transponder shows where he sailed to dispose of the sword. Meanwhile, Shinwell's killing of Jameel is probed. Shinwell ambushes Sherlock and beats him. He says that the SBK manipulated him into the killing.

Two murder victims' remains are found illicitly burned alive in a crematorium. One was private investigator (PI) Fred Kirby. Numerous restraining orders served on Kirby cause Sherlock to examine a shooting spree at a courthouse in 1987: after a swearing-in ceremony a group of new citizens were shot by the husband of the group's civic teacher who then killed himself. Virginia Spivey is the widow of the bailiff who charged the gunman and heroically ended the shooting. On his death a year ago she organized a memorial displayed at the courthouse. Kirby secretly swapped the memorial's bloodstained pocket copies of the Constitution given to each new citizen, and got a lab assistant to perform secret DNA tests, seeking a paternity match to C. Gibson. Carter Gibson had a violent streak and changed his name from Carter Dunwitty as he was the son of the courthouse shooter. His mother survived the shooting and, convinced the shooter was not his biological father, Carter hired Kirby to prove it. Carter's living room is covered with blood and smashed furniture. Sherlock realised Kirby and Carter were killed by an unknown assailant. Neighbors heard a loud bang at the time of the murders. Kirby and Carter were killed by blows from a marble ball, an award Carter received for his work on the disease he was afflicted with, CMT. CMT is an hereditary condition which attacks the nervous system in the body's extremities and gets worse over time. Noticing blood spatter on a wall far from the murder, Sherlock copies the killer's movements but is unable to throw the blood as far, so the killer has an unusually strong upper arm. Houston, son of Virginia Spivey, is called to the Precinct: Carter announced evidence that he was not the son of the courthouse shooter, but it also revealed that the Spivey family had CMT. Having CMT jeopardizes Houston's career, for Houston is a college baseball star pitcher expected to gain a major league contract. The loud bang that the neighbors heard was caused by Houston who, after killing with the marble ball, threw it the remarkable distance of 245 feet with spot-on accuracy into a metal dumpster. NYPD found it there, with the blood of both victims and Houston's fingerprints on it.
116	20	"The Art of Sleights and Deception"	Ron Fortunato	Mark Hudis	April 23, 2017 (2017-04-23)	4.47^[118]
Sherlock and Joan investigate when magician Claude Rysher, aka Razr, performed the bullet-catching trick but died as the bullet was poisoned. Most of Rysher's tricks were card-based and he cheated at poker, targeting Keating in particular. Keating, a banker, paid his poker debt by providing Rysher with records from 1963 of publisher Turnleaf Books. Those records were stolen from Rysher's home. Sherlock shows Joan the book "The Art of Sleights and Deceptions", the magician's bible on card tricks. It was published in 1963 under the pseudonym Walker Elmsley. Famous magician Quinn Malcolm has offered a $2M prize to whoever identifies Elmsley. A search angle is that the writer and illustrator are the same person as the drawings show the illustrator drew from a mirror. Bell, Sherlock and Joan meet with Farraday Books division head, Ballard Clifton. He says the author is Albert Lange and Clifton is his grandson and, far from the secret being more profitable, revealing it would cause a sales spike. NYPD finds that Rysher won a dark web auction to buy a rare Nazi anatomy book written by a doctor stationed at a concentration camp. Mr Frye, who lost the auction, threatened Rysher but denies killing, as he won an auction for another copy of the book soon afterwards. Sherlock examines Frye's copy and solves the case. Albert Lange illustrated the anatomy book and the magician's bible, proven by his drawing style. Clifton killed Rysher as he was about to reveal the magician's bible he had profited from for so many years was written by a war criminal, which would have ruined the company and Clifton. Clifton broke into Rysher's home - once to sabotage the magic trick and again to steal the records and research including the anatomy book. But then greedy Clifton could not resist reselling the book, even using the same description of its condition, and Frye bought that copy. Both Clifton's and Rysher's fingerprints were found on the book. Meanwhile, Bell is accused by a man called Gorham of inappropriate behaviour which, if true, would break Bell's career. Roy Booker, the ex-husband of Bell's girlfriend Chantal, is behind the bogus complaint. When Bell enters Chantal's home he finds she has been attacked.

After Bell finds Chantal beaten and unconscious in her apartment, she is now in hospital, sedated. The attacker had also urinated on her apartment bed. Given recent problems from Chantal's ex-husband Roy Booker (in the previous episode), Bell is convinced that Booker committed the assault. Booker claims an alibi: he was surveilling a man at the Birchwood Grove Country Club for Sawyer Winthrop Rose, the law firm he works for as an investigator. He fears the NYPD will frame him for Chantal's attack, which he repeats after Bell tries to attack him at the hospital. The urine DNA is a match for Booker yet video footage from the country club supports his alibi, so someone is framing him. They find Booker shot dead in his car in a staged suicide. Sawyer Winthrop Rose specializes in finding assets hidden by divorcing spouses. Attorney Ted Winthrop, Booker's boss, points towards a Russian called Fyodor Ukhov, allegedly hiding $20M from wife Lara (Winthrop's client). Fyodor admits he saw Booker following him and slapped his car window, hence his fingerprints being at the scene. Fyodor hired his own PI, Joseph Tommolino, who gave him details on Booker and Chantal. Fyodor plans to leave for the Caymans and Bell fears he will stay there to escape justice. Bell decides to injure Fyodor to keep him in the USA, but before he can do so he sees a car-jacking thief do it - Sherlock in disguise. Bell, whom Sherlock has realised was beaten as a child by his father, knows Sherlock stopped him ruining his career. Sherlock and Joan confront Tommolino but he did not send Fyodor the Chantal/Booker intel until after the crimes. The NYPD investigate other husbands that Booker surveilled. Booker bought some herbs for a body cleanse, and has a safety deposit box containing $100,000 with a list of clients next to money amounts. Winthrop lied to his clients about how much their spouses were hiding, telling them much less and stealing the difference. Booker discovered Winthrop's scheme and forced him to pay him a cut. Learning of Booker's issues with Chantal from Booker's crooked lawyer Ardy Gulbenkian, Winthrop attacked Chantal and staged Booker's suicide. He ordered all his staff to take a drugs test (Booker used the herbs to purge his system of drugs beforehand). A lab tech confesses Winthrop paid him for a sample of Booker's urine, and Winthrop dumped it on Chantal's bed.

When a small town police chief is killed while participating in a reality TV show where all the contestants "hunt" their assigned targets, the team initially suspects her current target, a former child soldier turned doctor from Africa, but soon realizes that the deceased had uncovered a complex network of police bribery and corruption. Meanwhile, Shinwell recruits Joan's help in exposing the role a member of the SBK played in another murder so that he can rise up in the ranks of the gang. He also provides her with a written confession of his earlier crimes, so that she may turn him in whenever she thinks best. Joan receives a text from Shinwell and discovers him dead in his apartment.

Shinwell's body is removed from his apartment by paramedics. Joan tells Sherlock and Captain Gregson that he was close to bringing down his former gang, SBK. Her anger persuades Sherlock to join her in carrying on Shinwell's work. Guzman shares his SBK files: Bonzi Folsom is SBK's leader of thirteen years, rarely leaves his guarded apartment, and no one knows how he communicates with the gang. His social media feed is benign. He has a half-brother, Tyus Wilcox. Tyus is a legitimate businessman, is not in SBK, has not spoken to Bonzi in years, and the pair had a public fight. Interviewed, Tyus says that he looks at Bonzi's social media to keep up with family events. Bonzi calls Bell and Sherlock to his apartment and says that gang member Tall Boy killed Shinwell and gives the murder weapon's location, hoping to end NYPD's investigation. He says that Shinwell was killed because Joan's details were found on his phone. Tall Boy accepts being the fall-guy. Sherlock and Joan work out how Bonzi communicates with his gang. But the NYPD fails to obtain solid evidence as the decrypted messages do not speak plainly, a drug bust based on them fails, and Bonzi deletes his social media. Bonzi's past messages include mention of people who were later murdered, people at companies that rivalled Tyus' business - the feud between Bonzi and Tyus was staged to cover that SBK was carrying out hits for Tyus. Sherlock and Joan now believe Tyus is the real leader of SBK. Tyus rejects the idea but reacts when victim Carol Logan is mentioned. Sherlock and Joan connect Logan with Bonzi, enough for a warrant for Bonzi's DNA. But on arriving at Bonzi's apartment they find him in a coma. He had snorted cocaine that had been deliberately mixed with bleach. Throughout, Sherlock's mental processes are impaired, manifested in his mind as his mother, May.

At an outdoor SBK party, gang members are planning to kill Joan when Mara Tres gang members ambush and kill them. The NYPD go on alert for a gang war. Mara Tres' leader, Julio "Halcon" Zelaya, shows Sherlock the murdered body of his sister Carmen in a crate sent to him along with a video showing her being tortured and reading out a message to Mara Tres. Sherlock threatens to tell Halcon that Tyus is SBK's leader if the gang war is not stopped. Carmen's roommate Tanya witnessed her abduction: the kidnapper did not move like a gang member and had no tattoos. Joan can find no member of any gang devoid of tattoos. In return for immunity, Tyus provides to ADA Nelson Lewis full information on SBK. That includes every gang hit made by SBK and he admits poisoning Bonzi. He says Carmen's kidnapper and killer was Duane. But Duane has tattoos and Tyus has none, yet Lewis is not interested in prosecuting Tyus. Joan meets secretly with Halcon and says that Carmen's killer is in witness protection. However, if Halcon gives Carmen's body to the police she can get the killer sent to prison where Mara Tres can exact revenge. Bell, Gregson and Joan show Tyus the video. Carmen's bloodied lip and change of restraints are because she got free at one point and bit her killer. NYPD has found Carmen's body (tip-off from Halcon). As part of his immunity deal, Tyus was required to provide a DNA sample, and this matched blood in Carmen's throat. Having lied under oath to ADA Lewis that Duane killed Carmen, his immunity deal is voided. Later, at a health clinic, Sherlock imagines May with him before having an MRI.

Sherlock and Joan are offered a bribe of $5 million to drop the case, which they later track to an offshore account. Sophie recognizes the name of the coffee shop where the video was uploaded, but then turns up dead. She was bought out of her family trust for $60 million, which motivated Sophie and her husband to hatch a plan to leak the video. He admits to the leak, but denies killing her. Holmes proves his guilt after another woman comes in, claiming Sophie's ex made sex tapes using hidden cameras activated by a switch in his deadbolt. They prove Sophie's husband killed her ex after he accidentally activated the switch and everything was caught on camera.

National Nuclear Security Administration Agent Don Kohler takes charge of the investigation. A bomb maker is found murdered in New Jersey. Residual radiation readings show that the plutonium was there. The police then receive an anonymous tip from a woman indicating that a mosque is the target. A suspicious van is spotted parking near the mosque by a traffic camera. The authorities mobilize, but the threat is fake, merely a distraction for a $300 million diamond robbery, abetted or orchestrated by Kohler.

Sherlock and Joan investigate the death of Joan's former therapist, Candice Reed. When they question Alfonse Kapoor (Maulik Pancholy), one of her patients, he attempts suicide. At the hospital, Sherlock meets Alfonse's boss, Sydney Place (Douglas Hodge), who was also Candice's landlord. He throws suspicion on her partner, Dr. Lemopoulos (James Urbaniak). In Dr. Reed's office, Sherlock and Joan find a listening device. They deduce that Place put it there to listen in on Kapoor's conversations with Dr. Reed. The device recorded the murder, but Place's fixer, Mr. Ray (Reg E. Cathey), destroyed it. He tells Sherlock that the murderer talked what he thought was gibberish, but Sherlock identifies it as Greek and deduces that Lemopoulos killed Dr. Reed so that Kapoor would talk about his job and share insider information with him instead of Dr. Reed. Meanwhile, after reading what her therapist wrote about her, Joan considers becoming a mother and Sherlock continues to struggle with headaches from his PCS.

They learn that two people who received donations from the original victim, Eric Russo, have been murdered. It turns out that Russo contracted an extremely deadly strain of bird flu, but had only a few mild symptoms. However, those who received his tissue donations were not so lucky. That made it worth killing for his antibodies.

A Japanese former Yakuza is murdered. Sherlock and Joan find out that he wore a prosthetic finger, concealing a thumb drive. Another Yakuza tells them that the victim had robbed a place and, when Sherlock and Joan investigate, they discover that it was a military facility and part of the nuclear missile control system. The victim had broken into it as part of an assessment; he had become a security consultant. The military was updating their system, so their new operating system could be on the missing thumb drive. Sherlock and Joan deduce that the victim was murdered to delay the update. The murderer had stumbled upon one of the two floppy discs that contain the recipe for the paper on which American currency is printed; they needed time to locate and steal the second before the system was updated and the old equipment destroyed. Meanwhile, Gregson finds out his daughter Hannah is an alcoholic. Hannah finds her roommate murdered in their home while Michael sits outside in a car. He had approached Hannah earlier under a pretense.

After meeting Michael and discussing Polly, Sherlock realizes that Michael is the serial killer. After failing to find any evidence and with Michael admitting his guilt to Sherlock, Sherlock and Joan attempt to dose Michael with heroin.

They eventually deduce that the person who murdered the woman was the man who had approved the building site permit illegally and would profit handsomely from the bridge collapse by giving the contract to build a new bridge to a company who was paying him under the table. As the pregnant mother is about to leave the brownstone, she tells Joan that she has decided to keep the baby because Joan has inspired her to believe that she, too, can do anything.

Sherlock and Joan investigate the murder of a biology professor who was working on a secret project for the Galahad Institute, which aimed to achieve immortality for humans, because it would award 5 million dollars for doubling rats' life spans. The son of the head of the Galahad Institute turns out to have murdered the scientists to stop the company paying out the 5 million dollars and, once his father died, he would receive the money that had previously been lost from his trust fund. Meanwhile, Alfredo asks Sherlock for help robbing a car retailer who refused to pay Alfredo the $100,000 that he is owed for his work. Alfredo's brother needs the money. Sherlock refuses to help, as Alfredo's brother is the reason for Alfredo's former drug use and life of crime. Alfredo and Joan suggest that the reason Sherlock will not help is because of unresolved feelings towards his brother, Mycroft. Sherlock then reveals that he is once again angry with his brother because the gang that wanted Mycroft dead have all since been murdered, so he could come out of hiding, but has not contacted Sherlock. Eventually, Sherlock tells Alfredo that he has given Alfredo's brother the money he needs, told him what he thought of him, and then forgiven him, and has decided to get in contact with Mycroft. Later, Joan finds Sherlock upset. He found out that Mycroft died 10 months earlier of a brain hemorrhage.

The kidnapped woman's brother has a matching gang tattoo for the Latino gang and he confesses. Meanwhile, Bell is offered a job by the U.S. Marshals and soon discovers that it was Sherlock who recommended him. Sherlock tells him he wants him to take the job because, as soon as Gregson retires, it is unlikely the new Captain would look favorably at Bell, who works closely with consultants outside of the NYPD. Bell tells Sherlock that he is not going to take the job before Gregson tells him to do so and that he is proud of him.

Holmes and Watson investigate the death of a relocation expert, Leland Frisk, who was poisoned by wine laced with cyanide. Frisk had a secret career as a contract killer.

Sherlock and Watson set out to identify for what murder Medina hired Frisk in the first place. They identify the original victim, a scientist that supposedly found another treatment for cystic fibrosis, while Medina had just raised the price of the medicine that was being used to treat it. Medina turns out to have been framed for Frisk's murder by Frisk himself, who had neither killed the scientist nor worked for Medina at all. Frisk had a son suffering from cystic fibrosis and was obsessed with eliminating Medina, so the medicine his son needed would become affordable again. When the FBI was closing in on him, he committed suicide and framed Medina. Even though Frisk's plan failed, Sherlock and the NYPD bring Medina to justice with help from the FBI.

There is a biological attack at the precinct. Detective Bell is exposed to an unknown substance and quickly deduces that the perpetrator is one of the people locked inside the quarantined precinct.

They dig up some things from a suspect cop's past but, when they can't log onto the system remotely, Gregson finds out that someone appearing to be from the CDC took the precinct's servers. Gregson concludes that the supposed terrorist attack must be a distraction for a heist. The civilians that showed symptoms must have been faking it. A background check reveals that both of them, as well as the cop they suspected, were bankrupt and had carried out the heist together with a repo man they all knew; the biological attack had been fake. Meanwhile, Watson deals with her mother's progressing Alzheimer's.

Harlan Emple wants to hire Sherlock and Watson because his mathematics doctoral student, Lily Zavala, has missed the oral defense of her thesis. He becomes the prime suspect in her disappearance; he was attracted to her, but had not told her because university rules forbid teacher-student relationships. Her parents receive a ransom call. The trail leads to the body of ex-con Jimmy Cantrell, one of the kidnappers. Lily eventually escapes. She was being forced to change the mathematical calculations used to update flood plain maps for the city. Cantrell's landlord owns property that a company is negotiating to purchase for its new headquarters. The update would put the land in the high-risk zone, which would likely cause the company to look elsewhere, costing the landlord millions. (He killed Cantrell because Cantrell got greedy and came up with the ransom demand on his own.) Meanwhile, Watson believes that Sherlock broke up with Fiona Helbron because she could never provide what he had with Moriarty. He asks Athena, a longtime sex partner, out on a date to see if their relationship could develop. She accepts. Harlan tells Lily how he feels; his feelings are reciprocated.

Virgil Gwinn, the manager of a high-end storage facility, is murdered. The facility is a foreign-trade zone, which means that goods brought there from abroad are not considered to have entered the United States yet and, therefore, are not subject to customs inspection or duties, which makes it attractive to criminals. Sherlock and Joan discover that Gwinn was secretly searching his clients' units for valuable information to sell. Sherlock eliminates all clients but one from his list of suspects: heiress Aura Swenson. Swenson's now-deceased father had amassed a collection of religious artifacts through questionable means as head of an international construction company. Sebastian Florenti, an appraiser Swenson had hired, tells Sherlock and Joan that he quit after Swenson asked him to create forged provenance for the artifacts. However, Swenson proves she has no motive; she had negotiated with the Ethiopian government to secure her ownership of the objects in exchange for helping rebuild the country's infrastructure following an announced peace deal with neighboring Eritrea. Joan finds an archaeologist's journal entry suggesting there is oil on disputed land Ethiopia was ceding to Eritrea as part of the agreement. Ethiopia then cancels the deal after this is brought to light. Sherlock realizes that Florenti sold the information to the Eritreans and hired a hitman to kill Gwinn.
