Sherlock, Series 3
John Watson:
I've thought long and hard about what I want to say to you. These are prepared words, Mary. I've chosen these words with care.
Mary Watson:
Okay.
John Watson:
The problems of your past are your business. The problems of your future...are my privilege. That's all I have to say; that's all I need to know [He throws her USB stick in the fire] No, I did't read it.
Mary Watson:
[crying] You don't even know my name.
John Watson:
Is "Mary Watson" good enough for you?
Mary Watson:
Yes! Oh my God, yes.
John Watson:
Then it's good enough for me, too.
[they embrace]
John Watson:
All this does not mean that I'm not still basically pissed off with you.
Mary Watson:
Mm, I know, I know.
John Watson:
I am very pissed off, and it will come out now and then.
Mary Watson:
I know, I know, I know.
John Watson:
You can mow the sodding lawn from now on.
Mary Watson:
I do mow the lawn.
John Watson:
I do it loads.
Mary Watson:
You really don't.
John Watson:
I choose the baby's name.
Mary Watson:
Not a chance.
John Watson:
Okay.
