This is going to be my Sherlock finale video.

They did a great job of leading everything together going back to season one just careful

Because this is the last episode of Sherlock probably for a long time I have some notes

at the end of this about what's coming next and what the cast and crew have said.

So there is a new round of the Sherlock giveaway.

So there are just so many things to talk about this in the top 10 format this should be 15,

so number 10 that really funny Mycroft whore introduction is almost like he's in a dream

You get the reveal that Sherlock just staged it so that he become so afraid and reveal

Sherlock has a sister the way they pull that off is perfect like Mycroft's murder house

is he's watching this old pulp detective thriller, it's funny to watch Mycroft express emotion

because supposedly he's not supposed to have any like he makes a joke later in the episode

where Sherlock almost forced to kill Moriaty says you know I'm I might have a little heart

So the cats out of the bag Mycroft comes clean in number nine is forced to go to Baker Street

So he has to sit in the chair jump through all the hoops of this all the comedy of that.

But then he explains Eurus's Backstory she's one year older than Sherlock, but six years

younger than Mycroft see you get a little more context for her character.

The funny thing about this is that Sharrinford in the books.

The third mythical brother of the homes was supposed to be the smartest of all like towering

above Mycroft himself so they did that in this episode because it's Eurus, it's a sister,

it's a different name, so she has this titanic genius that dwarfs the other homes brothers

she's been kept secret this whole time because she's such a danger to herself to everyone

So number eight the Sherrinford reveal like I said it's the name of the mythical third

homes brother that wasn't written by Conan Doyle, it's not really part of the canon,

which is the theoretical think it was at a later to sort of sew up the logic of the used

it as the name for this Alcatraz prison that she stuck in I should actually say that the

title of the episode is also an Easter egg for the Conan Doyle story the adventure of

the final problem which was meant to be the last Sherlock Holmes story he was going to

But then fans revolted he brought him back later.

But originally the final problem was sort of like the Reichenbach fall where he went

out taking down Moriarty they use that, during the Christmas special were he's in is mind

So originally, that was meant to be the theoretical death of the character in the books, but in

They use it as a sort of an Easter egg for Sherlock's

obsession with Deepwater that goes back to red beard.

So family Backstory number seven Musgrave we learn about their ancestral home if you

saw the James Bond movie sky fall it's kind of like that.

It just like this really old home had been their family for a long time. There were all

these fake graves out front that Sherlock was obsessed with, that his sister used as

the cipher for the east wind riddle that she kept repeating, so she turned it into a song,

but the code for solving it was taken from the graves that Sherlock like to play around

as a child when he was playing Pirates with his friends.

So there's this big reveal that she's in this Sherrinford prison the most impregnable

fortress for you lockup the worst of the worst they set it up pretty hard-core, so no surprise

that the reveal event is that Hannibal Lector is actually running the prison, so it was

a great twist words like oh we all spent time with her.

So, were following her orders but the bigger one number five is the Moriarty reveal where

you learn that Mycroft had been using her genius to help stop future potential crimes,

but as a result was forced to give her things in exchange one of them was the violin.

The other was five uninterrupted minutes with Moriarty five years ago.

So there was this great introduction sequence where they don't reveal to you that it's in

Moriarty gets off the helicopter to clean just like a total boss just like it's so great

to be back to a little dance for the fans.

Everyone's going crazy then you learn that it's five years ago and he's actually been

playing Eurus's great game, the great game that Moriarty teased is actually her great

game that she set in motion to get Sherlock to help save her.

So on route to this there's a whole bunch of Easter eggs the case that she forces them

to solve the three Garrettdub brothers is actually named after the adventure of the

three Garrettdubs which I actually think they used as a Series III episode, too, but she persons

of this emotional wringer, just sort of like lab rats just seeing how they'll react how

their morality will adapt to the situation like will you do something that you never

thought that you would do nice moment from Mycroft that proves that he's not a total

He actually does have emotions tries to get Sherlock to kill him, so that he won't have

to kill Watson but that she knocks them out takes them back to their family home in Sherlock

learns the truth number four that there was no red beard.

It was actually his friend in that part of the reason why Sherlock doesn't remember his

sister is because he rewrote his memories because

the trauma of losing his friend was so bad.

That was the day that he started to push emotions out and be the Sherlock that you met in the

first season, but number three as he saves his sister helps bring her down, so to speak

her mind Palace where she was trapped up in the air.

He also learns that he's stronger because of his emotions and he should welcome that.

So he's never going to be as smart as Mycroft or euros, but he will always beat them because

So not smarter, but stronger because he's learned to not push his emotions away.

So you know his friendship with Watson help teach him that you kinda see that play out

over the course of the episode the Molly Hooper I love you moment also kinda plays into that

to, but number two you see Sherlock visiting his sister later just showing you a more hopeful

There's as big reveal that she's beyond words.

She can't communicate she's not talking to anyone but Sherlock can speak to her through

So even if she isn't literally talking she still communicating with them now to see the

family come visit Mycroft telling his parents look she still alive so they eventually go
