Simon Templeman: Ronald Adair

Quotes 

• Ronald Adair : I'm here because I'm the executor of her will. She left strict instructions that this be brought to Sherlock Holmes upon her demise.

  Joan Watson : Sherlock died three years ago.

  Ronald Adair : I am aware. Just as I am aware that he named you his sole heir. He wanted you to have everything. So I think that makes this yours, don't you?

  Joan Watson : I don't want it.

  Ronald Adair : Ms. Watson...

  Joan Watson : Jamie Moriarty was crazy. It could be a bomb for all I know.

  Ronald Adair : No, I don't think so.

  [taking the parcel and shaking it] 

  Ronald Adair : You'll recall that she had certain rules when it came to you and Mr. Holmes. She would never have tried to kill you when she was alive. I find it hard to imagine that she would try now that she is dead.

• Joan Watson : My assistant said that you are friends with Jamie Moriarty.

  Ronald Adair : I promise, you're in no danger from me.

  Joan Watson : What about from her?

  Ronald Adair : Actually, no one's in danger from her. Not anymore. Jamie Moriarty is dead.

  Joan Watson : What?

  Ronald Adair : Suffice it to say, it was work-related.

  Joan Watson : I would offer my condolences, but she was a terrible person.

• Ronald Adair : "The descent to the infernal regions is easy enough, but to retrace one's steps, and reach the air above, there's the rub." Virgil.

  Joan Watson : It's nice to meet you, Virgil. I'm Joan Watson.

  Ronald Adair : Actually, um...

  Joan Watson : You were quoting Virgil. Yes, I know. It's dark down here, but no one's ever called it "infernal".
