When Detective Bell is attacked while off duty, Sherlock finds the case isn't so obvious as it first appeared after the suspect is found dead. Sherlock pushes Joan to learn self-defense.
"Details" stayed just this side of making Sherlock's offer of an apprenticeship romantic, and it's my fervent hope that they can continue to develop the unique Watson-and-Sherlock, platonically-in-love vibe.

Holmes: (asks Watson to be his partner) See, this is an important decision, and I encourage you to discuss it with others. Explain what you have been to me and what I believe you can be to me. Hmm. Partner. And lest you think that this is an act of, uh, charity, a gift from a grateful client, let me assure you, it is not. I am... better with you, Watson. Um, I'm sharper, I'm more focused. Difficult to say why, exactly. Perhaps, in time, I'll solve that, as well.
Holmes: It's funny detective. The second I heard about the attempt on your life, I dove into your case history. I though it'd be only a matter of time before the culprit's identity presented itself. I was wrong. You've done excellent work over the years. Made a lot of enemies. There's no shortage of people who would like to see you dead.
Bell: You say it like it's a good thing.
Holmes: Well, there is, in my humble opinion, no greater compliment an investigator can receive. Speaks to the quality of your work.
Watson: (after Sherlock's fake attack she falls over and realizes the attacker is Sherlock) What is your damage?
Holmes: Look, given that you were held at gunpoint in this very room little over a week ago, I thought, perhaps, a test of your ability to defend yourself was in order. It was. You have much to learn about the art of self-preservation.
Watson: Okay, if you ever do that again, I swear--
Holmes: You'll what? Fall over again?
Special billing was given to Aidan Quinn (and) and Linda Emond (and) for this episode.
