Older Watson : We immediately sprang into action, searching every nook and cranny for the cloth. I accidentally turned on one of Waxflatter's strange machines, and not being at all mechanically-minded, I had the dickens of a time trying to turn the thing off.
Elizabeth Hardy : I found it! I found it!
Older Watson : Holmes spent the entire night and the following day studying, examining, scrutinising the section of cloth. He conducted experiment after experiment. Not once did he stop for a rest. His energy seemed boundless. Following eighteen straight hours of work, Holmes turned to Elizabeth and myself, and those four familiar words shot from his lips.
Sherlock Holmes : The game is afoot!
-
Sherlock Holmes : Someday we'll be reunited. In another world, a much better world.
Elizabeth Hardy : I'll be waiting. And you'll be late... as always.

Sherlock Holmes : Rupert T. Waxflatter. Retired schoolmaster, degrees in Chemistry and Biology, well versed in Philosophy, Mathematics and Physics. Author of 27 books.
[Holmes walks on]
Elizabeth Hardy : And most people think he's a lunatic.

John Watson : Why?
[Waxflatter launches his flying machine]

John Watson : Well, then, what happened to him?
Sherlock Holmes : [entering suddenly through the window] He was murdered.

[Holmes and Elizabeth investigate a noise in the library, and find Watson on the floor, next to a ladder]
Sherlock Holmes : Elizabeth, let me introduce you to my new friend, the honourable, but clumsy, Watson.
John Watson : [standing up] The ladder's a bit wobbly.
Elizabeth Hardy : Hello.

Sherlock Holmes : Dudley's a pompous ass.
Elizabeth Hardy : He's very sweet.
Sherlock Holmes : Oh, really? Is that why you were standing so close to him, flirting with him? Letting him dribble all over your hand.
Elizabeth Hardy : Do I detect a sense of jealousy?
Sherlock Holmes : Sherlock Holmes, jealous? My dear, that word does not appear in my vocabulary.
Elizabeth Hardy : Neither does punctuality.
Sherlock Holmes : Oh, I see. You're angry because I'm late.
Elizabeth Hardy : As always.
