Line 25:
What then follows is an adventure where Irene Adler and Sherlock Holmes match their wits, and deal with their intellectual attraction to each other, while Watson acts like a [[Deadpan Snarker]] watching from the sidelines, and Sherlock is right, there is more to the phone than meets the eye.

* [[Abuse Is Okay When It Is Female On Male]]: Irene stabs Sherlock with a hypodermic and beats him around the face with a riding crop. The scene is played out as if it's just [[Fetish Fuel]] and Irene is never called out on it. John doesn't seem too worried about Sherlock when he walks in or angry at Irene for what she's just done to his best friend. And we later find out that Lestrade found Sherlock being drugged against his will so hilarious that he filmed it on his phone.
** Possible "Your mileage may vary"...Sherlock certainly plays it as [[My Greatest Failure]], and clearly is shocked and appalled. The music is also 'action/scare chord' music, with each snap made to sound like it HURTS. Watson is just completely, completely confused...note that he just thought they were on the same side, but does make sure Sherlock is okay.
Line 85 ⟶ 84:
** Which provides some very ominous foreboding for events in {{spoiler|The Reichenbach Fall.}}
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]: ''Irene Adler.'' {{spoiler|Mycroft too, before Irene turns it back on him.}}
* [[Mata Hari]]: Irene's line of work has apparently made her privy to state secrets from all over the world. She uses them as [[Insistent Terminology|"protection"]].▼
* [[Meaningful Echo]]: {{spoiler|Mycroft: "It would take Sherlock Holmes to fool me, and I don't think he was on hand, do you?"}}
* [[Modesty Bedsheet]]: Sherlock, of all people. Not that he's had sex or anything, he's just too lazy to put some clothes on — even when summoned to Buckingham Palace.
Line 119 ⟶ 117:
* [[Please Put Some Clothes On]]: Firstly to Sherlock from Mycroft's men (politely) and Mycroft himself (not so politely). Secondly to Irene from John.
* [["Previously On..."]]: The second season begins with a [[Aspect Montage|montage]] of clips from the pool scene in "The Great Game" with juxtaposed voices.
▲* [[
* [[Shirtless Scene]]: Sherlock gets an accidental one in the middle of Buckingham Palace, thanks to Mycroft's vindictiveness.
