What, you didn't think a Darker and Edgier Alternate Universe can have funny moments?
Think again.
- Lestrade delivers much of the humor, usually as a Deadpan Snarker. If he's in the scene, you can generally count on a sarcastic comment sooner or later.
"Actually, it wasn't as bad as... wait, what? God help me – should I even bother telling this story or are you simply going to deduce the rest of the journey from my shirt cuffs?" |
- Despite being the Dude in Distress, Holmes has his moments, as well.
"Since you were not blessed with wings... north or south?" |
- And put Inspector Lestrade and Sherlock Holmes together, and you're just bound to have fireworks...
Lestrade: "Hm, that went well, didn't it? You really have a way with women, Mr Holmes; can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?" |
- Which is not even mentioning how Holmes keeps thinking that Lestrade's lost it:
Perfect, it is now official – Lestrade has gone stark, staring mad. |
- And:
Wonderful, another reason to doubt the man's sanity. If Moran wants to kill Lestrade as well, he'll have to get in line... |
- Mary as the Team Mom/Pint-Sized Powerhouse.
Lestrade: "You talk as if I had some kind of choice in the matter, Mr Holmes. The first I even knew that Mary was following me was on the boat from Newhaven. Came up beside me while I was hanging over the rail and offered me a ginger pill, as calm and unruffled as you please." |
- This. Just THIS:
Lestrade: "Ha! Seriously, Martha, we still have to get past the police. Do you really think this is going to work?" |
