Sherlock Holmes: How long have I known him? Not really your best line of enquiry. We met twice, five minutes in total. I pulled a gun, he tried to blow me up. I felt we had a special something.Judge: Miss Sorrel, are you seriously claiming this man is an expert? After knowing the accused for just five minutes?Sherlock Holmes: Two minutes would have made me an expert, but five was ample.Judge: Mr Holmes, that's a matter for the jury.Sherlock Holmes: Oh, really?[Holmes studies the jury members]Sherlock Holmes: One librarian, two teachers, two high-pressure jobs, probably the City. Foreman's a medical secretary, trained abroad, judging by her shorthand.Judge: Mr Holmes...Sherlock Holmes: Seven are married and two are having an affair, with each other, it would seem. Oh, and they've just had tea and biscuits. Would you like to know who ate the wafer?Judge: Mr Holmes! You've been called here to answer Miss Sorrel's questions, not to give us a display of your intellectual prowess. Keep your answers brief and to the point. Anything else will be treated as contempt. Do you think you could survive for just a few minutes without SHOWING OFF?[Holmes opens his mouth to say something; cut to a bailiff leading him to a jail cell]
