- Something else Sherlock did that was OOC: Molly asked him if he wanted anything, then said she knew he didn’t, and he started to say he might want something, and she repeated that she knew he didn’t. What was that about? It seemed that he was trying to say he wanted something in order to make her feel better, but that’s not very Sherlockian.
- What was with all the “I OWE YOU”/IOU stuff, and the part where Sherlock and Moriarty are all like “you are me, I am you” and the “I’m not one of the angels” thing? I feel like this all must have some huge significance that I’m missing, like Moriarty and Sherlock are the same person a la Fight Club, except that is obviously not what’s happening here. (And if it were, that would be boring.) After Sherlock tells Moriarty that he’s not one of the angels, Moriarty seems to get some kind of realization, after which he kills himself. Why? What was he thinking? WHAT IS GOING ON IN THOSE BRAINS. I AM TOO ORDINARY FOR THIS SHIT. Also I kept thinking the letters IOU would turn out to have some kind of significance, because codes and riddles and stuff, but that failed to happen.
- I should know by now not to try and figure out Moffat’s endgame, after being disappointed by “The Wedding of River Song.” Although I kind of hate Moffat as a person so I like to pretend Sherlock is more Gatiss’s baby, especially since Gatiss clearly picks up on the homoerotic subtext while Moffat tries to pretend it doesn’t exist, silly man.
