Elementary

Sherlock Holmes:
[Referring to a picture of a cable found underneath a woman's home] Meet Ruby. She's a transatlantic data cable. The fastest in the world, and a backup of the North American internet.

Captain Thomas Gregson:
She looks like a garden hose.

Sherlock Holmes:
It's a curse of the modern age that very significant things appear common place. Now Ruby is one of several undersea cables which connects Europe to the United States. The full spectrum of commerce and communication flows through her optic fibers. As well as the requisite glut of pornography and cat videos.
