Dr. John Watson:
[in the train, watching for attackers with his gun ready] How many were you expecting?

Sherlock Holmes:
Half a dozen.

Dr. John Watson:
Who are they?

Sherlock Holmes:
A wedding present from Moriarty. [to Mary] Lovely ceremony by the way. Many a tear shed in joy.

Mary Watson:
Oh John!

Dr. John Watson:
[shoots] Yes, just a minute, darling!

Sherlock Holmes:
Do you trust me?

Mary Watson:
No!

Sherlock Holmes:
Well then I should have to... do something about that. [As they cross a bridge, he pushes Mary out of the train, and she falls into the river]

Dr. John Watson:
[shoots] Who's up to bat next, you bastards? [fires] Send out the fast bowler!

Sherlock Holmes:
John, do shut the door. [Watson does it, looks around, and realises that Mary is gone] It had to be done! [Watson runs to the other door and looks out] She's safe now! In my own defence... [Watson attacks him and punches him] I timed it perfectly!

Dr. John Watson:
Did you kill my wife?! Did you just kill my new wife?!

Sherlock Holmes:
Of course not!

Dr. John Watson:
[slaps him] What do you mean? How do you know that when you just threw her off a train?!

Sherlock Holmes:
I told you I timed it perfectly!

Dr. John Watson:
What does that mean?! [They struggle] Explain!

Sherlock Holmes:
By the time I explain, we'll both be dead! [Moriarty's henchmen open the door and one of them aims a rifle, which is jammed with a lipstick cap inserted into the barrel; lengthy flashback begins showing that Holmes has replaced a bullet in an ammo belt with a tube of lipstick and shoves the cap in the rifle barrel, before covering the henchmen in phosphorus dust; in real time, the henchman fires, the cap creates a squib load, the barrel ruptures, igniting the phosphorus, causing the henchman to burst into flames]

Sherlock Holmes:
That was no accident. That was by design. Now, do you need me to elaborate, or can we just crack on?
