 #can i mention how cool it is to have a variation of sherlock holmes where he says stuff like this #because it’s important #and this episode is my favourite so far because it’s surprisingly accurate #and it was just great to hear him say this #because sherlock holmes is of course intelligent and a modern sherlock would know this #and even though this holmes does have that social crass and indelicacy he’s softer in some ways to the others #which is what makes him different and a new take and interesting to watch #he’s a rare fictional example of a character who is pragmatic and driven and a bit socially blunt but also has a firm moral intelligence too #just because a character can be blunt and rude and not understand that they’ve just insulted someone doesn’t have to mean #that they don’t understand right from wrong  (via teacupsandcyanide)

I always reference this scene when talking about Jonny as Holmes because this is what makes him the most Holmesian Holmes since the passing of the great Jeremy Brett.

Sherlock Holmes cares about people, he cares about justice, he cares about not what is legally right but what is morally right and this scene reminds me so much of Holmes’ concern for Violet Hunter in The Copper Beeches or Violet Smith in The Solitary Cyclist or Helen Stoner in The Speckled Band all women in close proximity to abusers/potential abusers and he’s so concerned for them.

That’s Sherlock Holmes, a man concerned with justice and the protection of victims. I love Jonny’s Holmes with a passion because this is my childhood hero returned.

^ THISSSSSSSSS

I seriously just adore the Elementary version of the character SO much and this is one of the scenes that made me adore him ❤

Joan: Hey. There’s over $20,000 in here. I only asked for $5,000.
Sherlock: It’s every scrap of cash I currently have at my disposal. Consider the difference a kind of… buyout. It’s a no-strings-attached transaction which will represent the end of all business between you and Joey.
Joan: I-I don’t understand.
Sherlock: It’s quite simple, really. I’m providing you with the means to buy the young man out of your life. He gets the money he needs, you get the peace of mind knowing that he’ll never approach you again.
