Second week in a row with a tremendously dodgy accent from the villainess. In this case, she sounded hoarse and scratchy the whole time, which muffled her issues somewhat, but when she mentioned her ex-husband's "girlfriend," the pronunciation of that word was pure Aussie.

I had to scroll down a bit, but I knew one of us AVClubbers would post about that. Brilliant work on the writers' part.

"theater's loss is the police's gain"

Elspeth?

I think that's standard practice on this show (and CBS shows in general).

Bennett made the most of his limited screen time.

Cool your jets, Mr. Defensive. I was just jumping in to provide some additional confirmation. I wasn't diminishing your worth as a person.

Burt Ward, you mean?

The whole "Asian mafia" thing should not be happening on a show made in 2013.

Nicol Williamson ftw

I'm surprised not to see more comments on the terribleness of that accent.

Dumb fandom fan is right. The woman in the other car was clearly described as innocent throughout the entire episode.

They can't do it all on their own.

Eh, it's okay.

I guess Diane chose to side with the people who just forced her out of her own firm, for some reason. But then, every time Alicia lied to them she lied to Diane as well, so maybe I shouldn't be surprised Diane is against her.

Honestly, if she lets the younger son do parkour unsupervised, she was probably a terrible nanny.

They are seriously casting Lucy Liu against type by showing her as a woman who can't hold her own in a fight.

Think of the fact that, out of the thousands of interactions Sherlock has, we're only seeing the most significant ones. So even if the overall odds are small, the odds of us seeing unusual events happen to Sherlock are fairly high given that we're seeing hand-picked high points of his life.

Isn't that just Yee Yee?
