Well, that was tedious.
- You went on the tube like that?

None of the cabs would take me.

Nothing?

Military coup in Uganda.
- Hm.

Hm.

Another photo of you with the er...
- Oh!

Well, um, Cabinet reshuffle?

Nothing of importance?

BANGS ON THE FLOOR
Oh, God!

John, I need some. Get me some.

No.
- Get me some.

No. Cold turkey we agreed,
no matter what.

Anyway, you've paid
everyone off, remember?

No-one within a two-mile radius
will sell you any.

Stupid idea. Whose idea was that?

HE CLEARS THROAT

Mrs Hudson!

Look, Sherlock, you're doing
really well, don't give up now!

Tell me where they are!

Please, tell me.

Please.

Can't help, sorry.

I'll let you know
next week's lottery numbers.

HE LAUGHS
It was worth a try.

Yoo-hoo.

My secret supply, what have you done
with my secret supply?

Eh?
- Cigarettes, what have you
done with them, where are they?

You know you never let me touch your things!
Oh, chance would be a fine thing.

I thought you weren't my housekeeper.
- I'm not.

How about a nice cuppa and perhaps
you could put away your harpoon?

I need something stronger than tea.
Seven-percent stronger.

You've been to see Mr Chatterjee again.
- Pardon?

Sandwich shop. That's a new dress,
but there's flour on the sleeve.

You wouldn't dress like that for baking.

Sherlock...
- Thumbnail. Tiny traces of foil.

Been at the scratch cards again.
We all know where that leads, do we?

Kasbah Nights. Pretty racy for a first thing
on a Monday morning, wouldn't you agree?

I've written a little blog on the
identification of perfumes, it's on
the website. You should look it up!

Please!
- Don't pin your hopes on that
cruise with Mr Chatterjee,

he's got a wife in Doncaster
that nobody knows about.
- Sherlock!

Well, nobody except me.
- I don't know what you're
talking about, I really don't!

DOOR SLAMS BEHIND HER

What the bloody hell was all that about?
- You don't understand.

Go after her and apologise.

Apologise?
- Hmm.

Oh, John, I envy you so much.

You envy me?

Your mind, it's so placid,
straight-forward, barely used.

Mine's like an engine,
racing out of control.

A rocket, tearing itself to pieces, trapped
on the launch pad. I need a case!

You've just solved one, by harpooning
a dead pig, apparently!

Oh, that was this morning.

When's the next one?
- Nothing on the website?

"Dear Mr Sherlock Holmes.
I can't find Bluebell anywhere.

Please, please,
please can you help?"

Bluebell?
- A rabbit, John! Ah, but there's more.

Before Bluebell disappeared,
it turned luminous.

"Like a fairy,"
according to little Kirsty.

Then the next morning,
Bluebell was gone.

Hutch still locked,
no sign of a forced entry.

What am I saying, this is brilliant!
Phone Lestrade.

Tell him there's an escaped rabbit.
- Are you serious?

It's this or Cluedo.

Ah, no.
We are never playing that again.

Why not?

Because it's not actually possible
for the victim to have
done it, Sherlock, that's why.

It was the only possible solution.
- It's not in the rules.

Well, then, the rules are wrong!

DOORBELL RINGS

A single ring.

Maximum pressure,
just under the half second.

BOTH: Client!

TV: Dartmoor, it's always been
a place of myth and legend,

but is there something else
lurking out here?

Something very real.

Because Dartmoor is also home
to one of the government's
most secret of operations,

the chemical and biological weapons
research centre,

which is said to be even more
sensitive than Porton Down.

Since the end of
the Second World War,

there have been persistent stories
about the Baskerville experiments.

Genetic mutations,
animals grown for the battlefield.

There are many who believe
that within this compound, in
the heart of this ancient wilderness,

there are horrors beyond imagining.

But the real question is,
are all of them still inside?'

I was just a kid.

It was on the moor.

It was dark, but I know what I saw.

I know what killed my father.

What did you see?

Oh, I was just about to say.

Yes, in a TV interview.
I prefer to do my own editing.

Yes. Sorry, yes, of course.

Excuse me.

In your own time.

But quite quickly.

Do you know Dartmoor, Mr Holmes?
- No.

It's an amazing place,
it's like nowhere else,

it's sort of bleak, but beautiful.

Hm, not interested. Moving on.

We used to go for walks,
after my mum died, my dad and me.

Every evening,
we'd go out onto the moor.

Yes, good. Skipping to the night
that your dad was violently killed,
where did that happen?

There's a place,

it's a sort of local landmark,
called Dewer's Hollow.

That's an ancient name
for the devil.

So?

Did you see the devil that night?

Yes.

HE CRIES OUT

It was huge.

Coal-black fur with red eyes.

IT GROWLS

It got him.

Tore at him, tore him apart.

I can't remember anything else.

They found me the next morning,
just wandering on the moor.

My dad's body was never found.

Hm.

Red eyes, coal-black fur,
enormous...

A dog? Wolf?

Or a genetic experiment.

Are you laughing at me, Mr Holmes?

Why, are you joking?

My dad was always going on about the
things they were doing at Baskerville.

About the type of monsters
they were breeding there.

People used to laugh at him.

At least the TV people
took me seriously.

And I assume did wonders for Devon tourism.
- Yeah...

Henry, whatever did happen
to your father, it was 20 years ago.

Why come to us now?

Not sure you can help me, Mr Holmes,
since you find it all so funny!

Because of what happened last night.
- Why, what happened last night?

How... How do you know?

I didn't know, I noticed.

You came up from Devon on the
first of eight with a train this morning.

You had a disappointing breakfast
and a cup of black coffee.

The girl on the seat
across the aisle fancied you.

Although you're initially keen,
you've now changed your mind.

You are ever extremely anxious
to have your first cigarette of the day.

Sit down, Mr Knight, and do
please smoke. I'd be delighted.

How on Earth did you notice all that?
- It's not important...

Punched out holes where your
ticket's been checked.
- Not now, Sherlock.

Oh please, I've been cooped-up in here for ages!
- You're just showing off.

Of course I am a show-off,
that's what we do.

Train napkin you used to mop up
the spilled coffee.

Strength of the stain shows
that you didn't take milk.

There are traces of ketchup on it
and on your lips and your sleeve.

Cooked breakfast, or the nearest thing
those trains can manage. Probably, a sandwich.

How did you know
it was disappointing?

Is there any other type of breakfast
on a train? The girl.

Female handwriting's quite distinctive,
wrote her phone number down on the napkin.

I can tell from the angle she wrote
at that she was sat across from you
on the other side of the aisle.

Later, after she got off, I imagine
you used the napkin to mop up
your spilled coffee,

accidentally smudging the numbers.

You've been over the last
four digits yourself in another pen,
so you wanted to keep the number.

Just now, that you used the napkin
to blow your nose, maybe you're
not that into her after all.

Then there's the nicotine stains on your
fingers, so shaking fingers. I know the signs.

No chance to smoke when
on the train, no time to roll one
before you got a cab here.

It's just after 9:15,
you're desperate.

The first train from Exeter
to London leaves at 5:46am.

You got the first one possible,
so something important

must have happened last night.
Am I wrong?

No.

You're right.

You're completely, exactly right.

Bloody hell, I heard you were quick.
- It's my job. Now shut up and smoke.

Ahem.

Henry, your parents both died
and you were what, seven years old?

I know, that...

HE INHALES THE SMOKE

That must be quite a trauma.

Now, have you ever thought that maybe
you invented this story, this...

HE INHALES LOUDLY

..to account for it?

That's what Dr Mortimer says.

Who?
- His therapist.
- My therapist.

Obviously.

Louise Mortimer.

She's the reason
I came back to Dartmoor.

She thinks I have to face my demons.

What happened when you went back
to Dewer's Hollow last night, Henry?

You went there on the advice of your therapist
and now you're consulting a detective.

What did you see that changed everything?
- It's a strange place, the Hollow.

It makes you feel
so cold inside, so afraid.

Yes, if I wanted poetry, I'd read
John's emails to his girlfriends,
much funnier. What did you see?

HE SIGHS

Footprints.

On the exact spot
where I saw my father torn apart.

Man's or a woman's?

Neither. They were...
- Is that it? Nothing else?

Footprints, is that all?
- Yes. But they were...

I'm sorry, Dr Mortimer wins. Childhood
trauma masked by an invented memory.

Boring. Goodbye, Mr Knight,
thank you for smoking.
- Wait, what about the footprints?

Oh, they're probably paw prints,
could be anything, therefore nothing.

Off to Devon with you
and have a cream tea on me.

Mr Holmes, they were
the footprints of a gigantic hound.

Say that again.

I found footprints, they were big...

No, no, no, your exact words.

Repeat your exact words from a
moment ago, exactly as you said them.

Mr Holmes,

they were the footprints
of a gigantic hound.

I'll take the case.
- Sorry, what?

Thank you for bringing this to
my attention, it's very promising.
- No, no, sorry, what?

A minute ago, footprints were boring,
now they're very promising?

It's nothing to do with footprints.
As ever John you weren't listening.
Baskerville, ever heard of it?

Vaguely. It's very hush-hush.

Sounds like a good place to start.
- Ah, you'll come down then?

No, I can't leave London
at the moment, far too busy.

But don't worry,
I'm putting my best man onto it.

I can always rely on John
to send me all the relevant data,

he never understands a word of it himself.

What are you talking about you're busy?
You don't have a case!

A minute ago you were complaining...
- Bluebell, John! I've got Bluebell,

the case of the vanishing
glow-in-the-dark rabbit.

NATO's in uproar.
- Oh, sorry, you're not coming, then?

Oh.

OK.

OK.

I don't need those any more,
I'm going to Dartmoor.

You go on ahead, Henry, we'll follow later.
- Sorry, so you are coming?

20-year-old disappearance,
a monstrous hound?

I wouldn't miss this for the world!

..cruise together, you had
no intention of taking me on a boat!

BANG

Oh! Looks like Mrs Hudson
finally got to the wife in Doncaster.

Hm. Wait until she finds out
about the one in Islamabad.

Paddington Station, please.

There's Baskerville.

Er... That's Grimpen Village.

So that must be...

Yes, Dewer's Hollow.

What's that?
- Hm?

A mine field?

Technically,
Baskerville's an army base,

so I guess they've always been keen
to keep people out.

Clearly.

Right, three tours a day.
Tell your friends, tell anyone.

Don't be strangers. And remember,
stay away from the moor at night,

if you value your lives!
Take care.

THEY LAUGH

It's cold.

HE GROWLS

HE SCREAMS

SCREAMING

HE SIGHS

That part doesn't change.

What does?

Oh, there's something else.
It's a word.

Liberty.

Liberty?

And there's another word.

In.

I. N.

Liberty In.
What do you think it means?

Sorry we couldn't do
a double room for you boys.

That's fine. We're not...

There you go.

Oh, ta. I'll just get your change.
- Ta.

There you go.

I couldn't help noticing, on the map
of the moor, a skull and crossbones?

Oh, that.

Pirates?
- Er, no.

The Great Grimpen Minefield, they call it.
- Oh, right.

It's not what you think.
It's the Baskerville testing site.

It's been going for 80-odd years.

I'm not sure anyone really knows
what's there any more.

Explosives?
- Oh, not just explosives.

Break into that place
and if you're lucky,
you just get blown up, so they say.

In case you're planning
a nice wee stroll.
- Ta. I'll remember.

Aye. No, it buggers up tourism a bit,
so thank God for the demon hound.

Did you see that show? The documentary?
- Quite recently, yeah.

God bless Henry Knight
and his monster from hell.

Ever seen it? The hound?
- Me? No, no.

Fletcher has.

He runs the walks, the monster walks for
the tourists, you know. He's seen it.

That's handy for trade.

I'm just saying we've been
rushed off our feet, Billy.
- Yeah, lots of monster hunters.

It don't take much these days,
one mention on Twitter and whoomph!

We're out of WKD.
- Oh, right.

What with the monster
and the ruddy prison,

I don't know how we sleep nights.

Do you, Gary?
- Like a baby.

That's not true. He's a snorer.
- Hey, ssh.

Is yours a snorer?
- Got any crisps?

Yeah. No. All right?
Right, take care. Bye.

Mind if I join you?

It's not true, is it, you haven't
actually seen this hound thing?

Are you from the papers?
- No, nothing like that, just curious.

Have you seen it?
- Maybe.

Got any proof?

Why would I tell you if I did?
Excuse me.

I called Henry.
- Bet's off John, sorry.

What?
- Bet?

My plan needs darkness. Maybe we've
got another half an hour of light.
- Wait, wait, what bet?

Oh, I bet John here 50 quid that you
couldn't prove you'd seen the hound.

Yeah, the guys in the pub
said you could.

Well, you're going to lose
your money, mate.

Yeah?
- Yeah. I seen it.

Only about a month ago. Up at the Hollow.
It was foggy, mind, couldn't make much out.

I see. No witnesses, I suppose.
- No, but...
- Never are.

No, wait. There.

Is that it? It's not exactly proof,
is it? Sorry, John, I win.

Wait, wait, that's not all. People
don't like going up there, you know.

To the Hollow.

Gives them a bad sort of feeling.

Ooh, is it haunted?
Is that supposed to convince me?

Nah, don't be stupid!
Nothing like that.

But I reckon
there is something out there.

Something from Baskerville, escaped.

A clone? A super-dog?
- Maybe.

God knows what they've been
spraying on us all these years,
or putting in the water.

I wouldn't trust them
as far as I could spit.

Is that the best you've got?

I had a mate once
who worked for the MOD.

One weekend we were meant to go
fishing, but he never showed up.

Well, not till late.

When he did,
he was white as a sheet.

I can see him now.

"I've seen things today,
Fletcher", he said,

"that I never want to see again.

Terrible things."

He'd been sent to some secret
army place. Porton Down, maybe.

Maybe Baskerville,
or somewhere else.

In the labs there,
the really secret labs,

he said he'd seen terrible things.

Rats as big as dogs, he said.

And dogs, dogs the size of horses.

Um, we did say 50.

Ta.

Pass, please.

Thank you.

You've got ID for Baskerville?!

How?

It's not specific to this place.
It's my brother's.

Access all areas. I, um, ahem,
acquired it ages ago. Just in case.

Brilliant.
- What's the matter?

We'll get caught.
- No we won't!

Well, not just yet.
- Caught in five minutes.

"Hi, we thought we'd have a wander
around your top secret weapons base."

"Really? Great. Come in, kettle's
boiled." That's if we don't get shot.

Clear.
- Thanks very much.
- Thank you.

Straight through, sir.
- Mycroft's name literally opens doors.

I've told you, he practically is
the British Government.

I reckon we've got about 20 minutes
before they realise something's wrong.

What is it? Are we in trouble?
- Are we in trouble, sir.

Yes, sir. Sorry, sir.
- You were expecting us?

Your ID showed up straight away,
Mr Holmes. Corporal Lyons, security.

Is there something wrong, sir?
- I hope not, Corporal, I hope not.

It's just we don't get inspected here,
you see sir. It just doesn't happen.

Ever heard of a spot check?

Captain John Watson,
Fifth Northumberland Fusiliers.
- Sir.

Major Barrymore won't be pleased,
sir. He'll want to see you both.

I'm afraid we won't have time
for that. We need the full tour.

Right away. Carry on.

That's an order, Corporal.
- Yes, sir.

Nice touch.
- Haven't pulled rank in ages.

Enjoyed it?
- Oh, yeah.

MONKEY SCREECHES

How many animals do you
keep down here?
- Lots, sir.

Any ever escape?
- They'd have to know
how to use that lift, sir.

We're not breeding them that clever.
- Unless they have help.

Ah, and you are?
- It's all right, Dr Frankland,

I'm just showing these gentlemen around.
- Ah, new faces, how nice.

Careful you don't get stuck here,
though, I only came to fix a tap.

How far down does that lift go?
- Quite a way, sir.

Hm-mm. And what's down there?

Well, we have to keep
the bins somewhere, sir.

This way please, gentlemen.

So what exactly is it
that you do here?

I thought you'd know, sir,
this being an inspection.

Well, I'm not an expert, am I?

Everything from stem cell research
to trying to cure the common cold, sir.

But mostly weaponry?
- Of one sort or another, yes.

Biological, chemical?
- One war ends, another begins, sir.

New enemies to fight.
We have to be prepared.

BEEPING

MONKEY SCREECHES

OK, Michael,
let's try Harlow 3 next time.

Dr Stapleton...
- Stapleton?

Yes? Who's this?

Priority ultra, ma'am, orders from
on high. An inspection.
- Really?

We are to be accorded
every courtesy, Dr Stapleton.
What's your role at Baskerville?

SHE LAUGHS

Accorded every courtesy,
isn't that the idea?

I'm not free to say.
Official secrets.

Oh, you most certainly are free,
and I suggest you remain that way.

I have a lot of fingers
in a lot of pies.

I like to mix things up.

Genes, mostly.
Now and again, actual fingers.

Stapleton! I knew I knew your name.

I doubt it.

People say there's no such thing
as coincidence.

Dull lives they must lead.

Have you been talking to my daughter?
- Why did Bluebell have to die, Dr Stapleton?

The rabbit?
- Disappeared from inside a locked hutch,

which was always suggestive.
- The rabbit?

Clearly an inside job.
- Oh, you reckon?

Why? Because it glowed in the dark.

I have absolutely no idea what
you're talking about. Who are you?

ALARM SOUNDS

I think we've seen enough for now.
Corporal, thank you so much.
- That's it?

That's it. It's this way, isn't it?

Just a minute!

Did we just break into a military
base to investigate a rabbit?

BEEPING

MOBILE PHONE BEEPS

Ha! 23 minutes.
Mycroft's getting slow.

Hello, again.

Er, Major...

This is bloody outrageous!
Why wasn't I told?!

Major Barrymore, is it?
Yes, well, good.

Very good, we're very impressed.
Aren't we, Mr Holmes?
- Deeply. Hugely.

The whole point of Baskerville
was to eliminate this kind

of bureaucratic nonsense!
- I'm so sorry, Major.
- Inspections!

You obviously can't remain
unmonitored forever, goodness
knows what you'd get up to.

Keep walking.
- Sir!

ALARM SOUNDS

ID unauthorised, sir.
- What?

I've just had the call.
- Is that right? Who are you?

Look, there's obviously been
some kind of mistake.

Clearly not, Mycroft Holmes.

Computer error, Major. It'll all
have to go in the report.
- What the hell's going on?

It's all right, Major, I know
exactly who these gentlemen are.

You do?
- Yeah, I'm getting
a little slow on faces,

but Mr Holmes here isn't someone
I expected to show up in this place.

Oh, well...
- Good to see you again, Mycroft.

I had the honour of meeting
Mr Holmes at the WHO conference in...

Brussels, was it?

Vienna.
- Vienna, that's it.

This is Mr Mycroft Holmes, Major.
There's obviously been a mistake.

On your head be it, Dr Frankland.

I'll show them out, Corporal.
- Very well, sir.

Thank you.

This is about Henry Knight,
isn't it? I thought so.

I knew he wanted help, but I didn't
realise he was going to contact
Sherlock Holmes!

Oh, don't worry,
I know who you really are.
I'm never off your website.

I thought you'd be wearing the hat though.
- That wasn't my hat.

I hardly recognise him without the hat.
- It wasn't my hat.

I love the blog, too, Dr Watson.
- Oh, cheers.

The pink thing. And that one
about the aluminium crutch.
- Yes.

You know Henry Knight?
- Well, I knew his dad better.

He had all sorts of
mad theories about this place.

Still, he was a good friend.

Listen, I can't really talk now.

Here's my cell number.

If I can help with Henry,
give me a call.

I never did ask, Dr Frankland,
what exactly is it that you do here?

Ah, Mr Holmes,
I would love to tell you,

but then, of course,
I'd have to kill you.

That would be tremendously ambitious
of you. Tell me about Dr Stapleton.

I never speak ill of a colleague.

But you'd speak well of one,
which you're clearly omitting to do.

I do seem to be, don't I?

I'll be in touch.
- Any time.

So?
- So?

What was all that about the rabbit?

Oh, please,
can we not do this, this time?

Do what?
- You being all mysterious with your...

cheekbones, and turning your
coat collar up so you look cool.

I don't do that.
- Yeah, you do.

So, the email from Kirsty.
The missing luminous rabbit.

Kirsty Stapleton, whose mother
specialises in genetic manipulation.

She made her daughter's rabbit
glow in the dark?

Probably a fluorescent gene.

Removed and spliced it into the
specimen. Simple enough, these days.

So?

So we know that Dr Stapleton performs
secret genetic experiments on animals.

The question is, has she been working
on something deadlier than a rabbit?

To be fair,
that is quite a wide field.

Hi.
- Hi.

Come in, come in.

This is, er...

Are you, um, rich?

Yeah.
- Right.

There's a couple of words,
it's what I keep seeing.

Liberty.

Liberty?

Liberty. And...

In.

It's just that.

Have you finished?
- Hm.

Mean anything to you?
- Liberty in death, isn't that the
expression? The only true freedom.

What now, then?

Sherlock's...got a plan?
- Yes.

Right.
- We take you back out onto the moor.

OK...
- And see if anything attacks you.
- What?

That should bring things to a head.
- At night?

You want me to go out there at night?
- Hm. That's your plan?

Brilliant!
- Got any better ideas?
- That's not a plan.

If there is a monster out there,
John, there's only one thing to do.
Find out where it lives.

RUSTLING IN THE BUSHES

Sherlock.

U, M, Q, R, A. Umqra?

Sherlock.

Sherlock.

Sherlock?

Met a friend of yours?
- What?

Dr Frankland?

Oh, right. Bob, yeah.

He seems pretty concerned about you.

Oh, he's a worrier, bless him.

He's been very kind to me
since I came back.

He knew your father?
- Yeah.

But he works at Baskerville. Didn't
your dad have a problem with that?

Well, mates are mates, aren't
they? I mean, look at you and John.

What about us?

Well, I mean, he's a pretty
straightforward bloke and you...

Well, they agreed never to talk
about work, Uncle Bob and my dad.

Dewer's Hollow.

Sherlock.

METALLIC THUD

THUDDING CONTINUES

THUD

THUDDING CONTINUES

SCREECHING

HOWLING IN THE DISTANCE

HOWLING GETS LOUDER

GROWLING

SNARLING

Oh, my god, oh, my god,
oh, my god! Oh, my god!

Did you see it?

Did you hear that?
- We saw it. We saw it!

No, I didn't see anything.

What? What are you talking about?

I didn't see anything.

Look, he must have seen it.

I saw it. He must have.
He must have.

I... Why? Why?
Why would he say that?

It was there, it was.

Henry, Henry, I need you
to sit down. Try and relax, please.

I'm OK, I feel OK.
- I'm going to give you something
to help you sleep. All right?

This is good news, John.

It's...it's...it's good.

I'm not crazy.

There is a hound there, there is.

And Sherlock, he saw it too.
No matter what he says, he saw it.

Well, he's in a pretty bad way.
He's manic.

Totally convinced there's some
mutant super-dog roaming the moors.

And there isn't, though, is there?

If people knew how to make
a mutant super-dog, we'd know.

It'd be for sale.
I mean, that's how it works.

Listen, on the moor I saw
someone signalling, Morse.

I guess it's Morse.
It doesn't seem to make much sense.

HE BREATHES DEEPLY

U, M, Q, R, A,
does that mean anything?

So, OK, what have we got?

We know there's footprints,
because Henry found them,

and so did the tour guide bloke.

We all heard something.

Maybe we should just look for
whoever's got a big dog.

Henry's right.
- What?

I saw it, too.

What?
- I saw it too, John.

Just...just a minute, you saw what?

A hound. Out there in the Hollow.

A gigantic hound.

Um, look, Sherlock,
we have to be rational about this.

OK, now you,
of all people, can't just...

Let's just stick to what we know,
yes? Stick to the facts.

Once you've ruled out the impossible,
whatever remains, however improbable,
must be true.

What does that mean?

Huh.

Look at me,
I'm afraid, John.

Afraid.

Sherlock.

I've always been able to
keep myself distant.

Divorce myself from feelings.

But look, you see,
body's betraying me.

Interesting, yes, emotions.

The grit on the lens,
the fly in the ointment.

Yeah, all right, Spock,
just...take it easy.

You've been pretty wired lately,
you know you have.

I think you've just gone out there
and got yourself a bit worked up.

Worked up?

It was dark and scary.

Me? There's nothing wrong with me.

Hm.

Sherlock...

Sherl...
- There is nothing wrong
with me! Do you understand!?

You want me to prove it, yes?

We're looking for a dog, yes?
A great big dog, that's your
brilliant theory.

Cherchez le chien!
Good. Next line.

Yes. Where shall we start?
How about them?

The sentimental widow and her son,
the unemployed fisherman.

The answer's yes.
- Yes?

She's got a West Highland Terrier
called Whisky, not exactly
what we're looking for!

Sherlock, for God's sake!

Look at the jumper he's wearing,
hardly worn. Clearly he's
uncomfortable in it.

Maybe it's because of the material
or likely the hideous pattern,

suggests it's a present,
probably Christmas.

So he wants into his mother's
good books. Why?
Almost certainly money.

He's treating her to a meal,
but his own portion is small.

Then he wants to impress her, but he's
trying to economise on his own food.
- Or maybe he's just not hungry.

No, small plate, starter.
He's practically licked it clean.
She's nearly finished her pavlova.

If she'd treated him,
he'd have had as much as he wanted.

He's hungry all right and not well-off, you
can tell by the state of his cuffs and shoes.

"How do you know she's his mother?"
Who else would give him
a Christmas present like that?

Well, could be an aunt or older
sister, but mother's more likely.

Now he was a fisherman,
scarring pattern on his hands,
very distinctive. Fish hooks.

They're all quite old now,
this suggests he's been unemployed
for some time.

Not much industry in this part of the world,
so he turned to his widowed mother for help.

"Widowed?" Yes, Obviously.

She's got a man's wedding ring
on a chain around her neck,
clearly her late husband's

and too big for her finger.
She's well-dressed,
but her jewellery is cheap.

She could afford better,
but she's kept it, sentimental.

Now the dog? Tiny little hairs
all over her leg from where
it gets a little bit too friendly,

but no hairs above the knees,
suggesting it's a small dog,
probably a terrier.

In fact it is a West Highland
Terrier called Whisky. "How the hell
do you know that Sherlock?"

Because she was on the same train
as us and I heard her call its name.

And that's not cheating, that's listening.
I use my senses John, unlike some people,
so you see, I am fine.

In fact, I've never been better,
so just leave me alone!

Yeah, OK.

OK.

Why would you listen to me?
I'm just your friend.
- I don't have friends.

No.

I wonder why.

That's so mean!

Um, more wine, doctor?
- Are you trying to get me drunk, doctor?

The thought never occurred.

Because a while ago I thought
you were chatting me up.
- Oh! Where did I go wrong?

When you started asking me about my patients.
- Well, I am one of Henry's oldest friends.

Yeah, and he's one of my
patients, so I can't talk about him.

Although he has told me
about all his oldest friends.

Which one are you?
- A new one?

OK, what about his father?
He wasn't one of your patients.

Wasn't he some sort of
conspiracy nutter...theorist?

You're only a nutter if you're wrong.
- Hm, and was he wrong?

I should think so. But he got
fixated on Baskerville, didn't he?

With what they were doing in there.

Couldn't Henry have gone the
same way, started imagining a hound?

Why do you think
I'm going to talk about this?

Because I think you're worried about
him and because I'm a doctor too.

And because I have another friend
who might be having the same problem.

SHE SIGHS

Ah, Dr Watson! Hi. Hello.

How's the investigation going?
- Er, hello.

What, investigation?

Didn't you know? Don't you read
the blog? Sherlock Holmes.

It's... Sherlock who?

Private detective. This is his PA.

PA?
- Well, live-in PA.
- Perfect!

Live-in...?

This is Dr Mortimer,
Henry's therapist.

Oh, hello. Bob Frankland.

Listen, tell Sherlock I've been
keeping an eye on Stapleton.

Any time he wants a little chat.
All right? Hm.

HE LAUGHS

Oh.

Why don't you buy him a drink?
I think he likes you.

KNOCKING

Morning!
- Oh, how are you feeling?

I...

I didn't sleep very well.
Oh, that's a shame.

Shall I make us some coffee?
Oh, look, you've got damp!

Listen, last night...

Why did you say
you hadn't seen anything?

I mean, I only saw the hound
for a minute, but...
- Hound?

What?
- Why do you call it a hound?
Why a hound?

Why? What do you mean?
- It's odd, isn't it?

It's a strange choice of words,
archaic.

That's why I took the case.
"Mr Holmes, they were the footprints
of a gigantic hound."

Why say "hound"?

I don't know, I've never...

Actually, I'd better skip
the coffee.

BIRDSONG

Did you get anywhere
with that Morse code?

Nah.

U, M, Q, R, A, wasn't it? Umqra.

Nothing.
- Umqra...

Look, forget it. I thought
I was onto something, I wasn't.

Sure?
- Yeah.

How about Louise Mortimer,
did you get anywhere with her?
- No.

Too bad.
But did you get any information?

You're being funny now?

Thought it might
break the ice, a bit.

Funny doesn't suit you.
Let's stick to ice.

John...
- It's fine.

Wait, what happened last night,
something happened to me,

something I've
never really experienced before.

Yes, you said. Fear, Sherlock Holmes
got scared, you said.

No, no. It was more than that, John.
It was doubt.

I felt doubt.

I've always been able to trust
my senses, the evidence of
my own eyes, until last night.

You can't actually believe
that you saw some kind of monster?
- No, I can't believe that.

But I did see it,
so the question is, how? How?

Yes.

Yeah, right, good.

So you've got something to
go on, then. Good luck with that.

Listen, what I said before, John,
I meant it.

I don't have friends.

I've just got one.

Right.

John.

John! You are amazing!
You are fantastic!

Yes, all right,
you don't have to overdo it.

You may never be the most luminous of
people, but as a conductor of light,

you are unbeatable.
- Cheers! What?

Some people who aren't geniuses
have an amazing ability
to stimulate it in others.

Hang on, you were saying sorry
a minute ago, don't spoil it.

Go on. So what have I done
that's so bloody stimulating?

Yeah?

What if it's not a word,
what if it is individual letters?

You think it's an acronym?

Absolutely no idea, but...

What the hell are you doing here?!
- Oh, nice to see you too!

I'm on holiday, would you believe?
- No, I wouldn't.

Hello, John.
- Greg!

I heard you were in the area.
What are you up to?

Are you after this Hound of Hell,
like on the telly?

I'm waiting for an explanation,
Inspector, why are you here?
- I've told you, I'm on holiday.

You're brown as a nut. You're
clearly just back from your holidays.
- I fancied another one.

Oh, this is Mycroft, isn't it?
- Now, look...

Of course it is. One mention
of Baskerville and he sends down
my handler to spy on me, incognito.

Is that why you're
calling yourself "Greg"?
- That's his name.

Is it?
- Yes. If you'd ever bothered to find out.

Look, I'm not your handler.

And I just don't do
what your brother tells me.

Actually, you could
be just the man we want.
- Why?

Well, I've not been idle, Sherlock.

I think I might have found something.
Here.

I didn't know if it was relevant.

Starting to look like it might be.
That is an awful lot of meat
for a vegetarian restaurant.

Excellent.

A nice, scary inspector from
Scotland Yard, who can put in a
few calls, might come in very handy.

Shop.

What's this?

Coffee. I made coffee.
- You never make coffee.

I just did. Don't you want it?
- You don't have to keep apologising.

Thanks.

Hm, I don't take sugar.

These records go back
nearly two months.

That's nice. It's good.

Is that when you had the idea,
after the TV show went out?

It's me. It was me.

I'm sorry, Gary. I couldn't help it.

I had a bacon sandwich at Cal's wedding
and one thing led to another.
- Nice try.

Look, we were just trying to give
things a bit of a boost, you know?

Let a great big dog run wild up
on the moor, it was heaven-sent.

It was like us
having our own Loch Ness monster.

And where do you keep it?
- There's an old mine shaft.
It's not too far.

He was all right there.
- Was?

We couldn't control
the bloody thing. It was vicious.

And then, a month ago,

Billy took him to the vet
and, you know...

He's dead?

Put down.

Yeah. No choice.

So it's over.

It was just a joke, you know.

Yeah, hilarious!

You've nearly driven
a man out of his mind.

You know he's actually pleased
you're here? Secretly pleased.

Is he?

That's nice.

I suppose he likes having
all the same faces back together.

Appeals to his...his...

Asperger's?

So, you believe them about
having the dog destroyed?
- No reason not to.

Well, hopefully
there's no harm done.

I'm not quite sure what I'd charge
them with, anyway. I'll have a word
with the local force.

Right, that's that, then.
Catch you later.

I'm enjoying this. It's nice
to get London out of your lungs.

So that was their dog that people
saw out on the moor?
- Looks like it.

But that wasn't what you saw,
that wasn't just an ordinary dog.

No. It was immense.

It had burning red eyes,
and it was glowing, John,

its whole body was glowing.

I've got a theory, but I need to get
back into Baskerville to test it.

How? Can't pull off
the ID trick again.

Might not have to.

Hello, brother, dear. How ARE you?

Afternoon, sir.
Can you turn the engine off?

Thank you.

I need to see Major Barrymore
as soon as we get inside.
- Right.

Which means you'll have to
start the search for the hound.
- OK.

In the labs.

Stapleton's first.

It could be dangerous.

Oh, you know I'd love to!

I'd love to give you unlimited
access to this place. Why not?

It's a simple enough request, Major.
- I've never heard of anything so bizarre.

You're to give me 24 hours,
it's what I've negotiated.
- Not a second more.

I may have to comply with this
order, but I don't have to like it.

I don't know what the hell
you expect to find here, anyway.

Perhaps the truth.
- About what?

Oh, I see.

The big coat should have told me.

You're one of the conspiracy lot,
aren't you?

Well, then, go ahead, seek them out,

the monsters, the death rays,
the aliens.

Have you got any of those?

Oh, just wondering.

A couple.
Crash landed here in the '60s.

We call them Abbott and Costello.

Good luck, Mr Holmes.

Oh!

'John... John?'

Now, Sherlock! Please!

'All right, I'll find you.
Keep talking.'

I can't, it'll hear me.

'Keep talking. What are you seeing?

'John?'

Yes, I'm here.

'What can you see?'

I don't know. I don't know,
but I can hear it now.

GROWLING

Did you hear that?

'Stay calm, stay calm.
Can you see it?

'Can you see it?'

No, I can't.

GROWLING

I can see it.

I can see it.

It's here.

Are you all right? John?

Jesus Christ! It was the hound!

Sherlock, it was here, I swear it,
Sherlock, it must, it must...

Did-did you see it? You must have!

It's all right, it's OK now.

NO, IT'S NOT! IT'S NOT OK!

I saw it, I was wrong!

Hm, well, let's not jump to conclusions.
- What?

What did you see?
- I told you, I saw the hound.

Huge, red eyes?
- Yes.

Glowing?
- Yeah.

No.
- What?

I made up the bit about glowing.

You saw what you expected to see
because I told you.

You have been drugged.
We have all been drugged.
- Drugged?

Can you walk?
- Of course I can walk.

Come on, then.
It's time to lay this ghost.

Oh, back again?
What's on your mind this time?

Murder, Dr Stapleton.

Refined, cold-blooded murder.

Will you tell little Kirsty what
happened to Bluebell, or shall I?

OK. What do you want?

Can I borrow your microscope?

Are you sure you're OK?
You look very peaky.

No, I'm all right.

It was the GFP gene from a jellyfish,
in case you're interested.
- What?

In the rabbits.
- Oh, right, yeah.

Aequorea victoria,
if you really want to know.

Why?
- Why not?

We don't ask questions like that
here. It isn't done.

It was a mix-up, anyway.
My daughter ended up
with one of the lab specimens,

so poor Bluebell had to go.

Your compassion is overwhelming!
- I know.

I hate myself sometimes.

So, come on, then, you can trust me,
I'm a doctor,

what else have you got
hidden away up here?

SHE SIGHS
Listen, if you can imagine it,

someone is probably doing it
somewhere. Of course they are.

Cloning?
- Yes, of course.
Dolly the Sheep, remember?

Human cloning?
- Why not?

HE CLEARS HIS THROAT
And what about animals? Not sheep.

Big animals.

Size isn't a problem. Not at all.

The only limits are ethics
and the law and both those things
can be very flexible.

But not here, not at Baskerville.
- It's not there!

Jesus!
- Nothing there!
It doesn't make any sense!

What were you expecting to find?

A drug, of course.
It has to be a drug.

An hallucinogenic
or a deliriant of some kind.

There's no trace of anything in the sugar.
- Sugar?
- Sugar, yes.

A simple process of elimination.
I saw the hound, saw it as my
imagination expected me to see it.

A genetically engineered monster.

But I knew I couldn't believe the
evidence in my own eyes, so there
were seven possible reasons for it,

the most possible being narcotics.

Henry Knight, he saw it too, but
you didn't, John. You didn't see it.

We have eaten and drunk exactly
the same things since we got to Grimpen,
apart from one thing.

You don't take sugar in your coffee.
- I see, so?

I took it from Henry's kitchen,
his sugar.

It's perfectly all right.

But maybe it's not a drug.
- No, it has to be a drug.

How did it get into our systems?
How?

There has to be something,
something...

Something...

Something buried deep.

Get out.
- What?

Get out, I need to go to
my mind palace.
- Your what?

He's not going to be doing
much talking for a while,
we may as well go.

His what?
- Oh, his "mind palace".

It's a memory technique,
a sort of mental map.

You plot a map with a location,
it doesn't have to be a real place,

and then you deposit memories there.

Theoretically, you can never forget
anything. All you have do is
find your way back to it.

So this imaginary location could be
anything, a house or a street?
- Yeah.

But he said "palace",
he said it was a palace?
- Yeah, well, he would, wouldn't he?

read about it, stored it away.

An experiment in a CIA facility
in Liberty, Indiana.

SHE TAPS THE KEYBOARD

H-O-U-N-D.

That's as far as my access goes,
I'm afraid.

But there must be an override,
a password?

I imagine so,
but that'd be Major Barrymore's.

Password, password. Password.

He sat here when he thought it up.

Describe him to me?
- You've seen him.
- But describe him.

He's a bloody martinet, a throw-back,
the sort they'd have sent into Suez.

Good, excellent, old-fashioned.
Traditionalist. Not the sort of man
that uses children's name as a password.

He loves his job, proud of it
and this is work-related.
So what's at eye level?

Books.

Jane's Defence Weekly, bound copies.
Hannibal.

Wellington. Rommel. Churchill's
History of the English-Speaking
Peoples, all four volumes.

Churchill, he's fond of Churchill.

Copy of The Downing Street Years,
one, two, three, four, five.
Separate biographies of Thatcher.

Mid-1980s, at a guess.
Father and son.

Barrymore Senior, medals,
Distinguished Service Order.
- That date, I'd say Falklands veteran.

Right, so Thatcher's looking a
more likely bet than Churchill.
- So that's the password?

No! With a man like Major Barrymore,
only first name terms would do.

MACHINE BEEPS WILDLY

Hound.

Hm.

Jesus.

Project HOUND. A new deliriant drug which
rendered its users incredibly suggestible.

They wanted to use it
as an anti-personnel weapon,
to totally disorientate the enemy

using fear and stimulus. But they
shut it down and hid it away in 1986.

Because of what it did
to the subjects they tested it on.
- And what they did to others.

Prolonged exposure drove them
insane. Made them almost
uncontrollably aggressive.

So, someone's been doing it again?
Carrying on the experiments?

Attempting to refine it, perhaps.
For the last 20 years.
- Who?

Those names mean anything to you?

No, not a thing.

Five principal scientists.

20 years ago.

Maybe our friend's somewhere
in the back of the picture?

Somebody's old enough to be there at
the time of the experiments in 1986?

Maybe somebody who says "cell phone"
because of time spent in America?

You remember, John?
- Hm-mm.

Here's my, uh, cell number.

He gave us his number,
in case we needed him.

Oh, my god, Bob Frankland.

But Bob doesn't even work on...
I mean he's a virologist.
This was chemical warfare.

That's where he started, though.

He's never lost the certainty,
the obsession that that drug
really could work.

Nice of him to give us his number.
Let's arrange a little meeting.

PHONE RINGS

Hello?

WOMAN SOBS ON THE PHONE

Who's this?
- You've got to find Henry.

It's Louise Mortimer.

Louise, what's wrong?

Henry was, was remembering. Then...

He tried...

He's got a gun, he went
for the gun and tried to...
- What?

SHE SOBS

He's gone. But you've got to stop
him, I don't know what he might do.

Where, where are you?

His house. I'm OK. I'm OK.

Right, stay there.
We'll get someone to you, OK?

Henry?
- He's attacked her.

Gone?
- Hm.

There's only one place he'll go to,
back to where it started.

Lestrade? Get to the Hollow. Dewer's

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry, Dad.

Get away from me!
- Easy, Henry, easy. Just relax.

I know what I am,
I know what I tried to do.

Just put the gun down, it's OK.
- No, no! I know what I am!

Yes, I'm sure you do, Henry.

It's all been explained to you,
hasn't it?

Explained very carefully.
- What?

Someone needed to keep you quiet,

needed to keep you as a child,
to reassert the dream
you both clung on to,

because you had started to remember.

Remember now, Henry, you've got
to remember what happened here
when you were a little boy.

I thought it had got my dad.

The hound. I thought... Oh, Jesus!

I don't...I don't know anymore!
I don't!

No, Henry! Henry, for God's sake!
- Henry, remember.
"Liberty In." Two words.

Two words a frightened little boy
saw here 20 years ago. You'd started
to piece things together.

Remember what happened here
that night.

It wasn't an animal, was it, Henry?

Not a monster.

A man.

You were just a child.

So you rationalised it

Then you started to remember,

Driven out of your mind
so that no-one would believe
a word that you said.

Sherlock!

It's OK.

It's OK, mate.

But we saw it, the hound,
last night. We did, we s...

No, but there was a dog, Henry,

leaving footprints,
scaring witnesses, but it was
nothing more than an ordinary dog.

We both saw it, saw it as our
drugged minds wanted us to see it.

Fear and stimulus,
that's how it works.

But there never was any monster.

Right, he is not drugged,

But it's just a dog, Henry. It's
nothing more than an ordinary dog.

You...bastard!

20 years! 20 years of my life,
making no sense!
- It's all over now, come on.

Why didn't you just kill me?

Because dead men get listened to,
he needed to do more than kill you.

He had to discredit every word
you ever said about your father.

And he had the means
right at his feet.

A chemical minefield,
pressure pads in the ground,

dosing you up every time
that you came back here.

Murder weapon
and scene of the crime all at once.

Ha ha, oh, this case, Henry.
Thank you.

It's been brilliant! Sherlock.
- What?

Timing.

Not good?
- No, no, it's OK.

It's fine. Because this means...

this means that my dad was right.

He'd found something out, hadn't he?

And that's why you killed him,
because he was right,

and he'd found you right
in the middle of an experiment!

So they didn't have

No, you don't.

No, I don't. Sentiment?
- Sentiment.

Listen, what happened
to me in the lab?

Do you want some sauce with that?

I mean I hadn't been to the Hollow so,
how come I heard those things in there?

Fear and stimulus, you said?

You must have been dosed with it
elsewhere. You went into the lab, maybe?

You saw those pipes,
pretty ancient, leaky as a sieve.

And they were carrying the gas,
so... Um, ketchup was it, or brown?
- Hang on.

You thought it was in the sugar. You
were convinced it was in the sugar.

I'd better get going, actually
there's a train that leaves
in half an hour, so if you want...

Oh, God! It was you.

You locked me in that bloody lab.

I had to, it was an experiment.
- An experiment?!
- Ssh.

I was terrified, Sherlock,
I was scared to death!

I thought the drug was in the sugar,
so I put sugar in your coffee.

Then I arranged everything with
Major Barrymore. Totally scientific,
laboratory conditions, literally.

SOUND OF GROWLING

It's in here with me.
- All right, keep talking,
I'll find you.

Keep talking.
- I can't, it'll hear me.
- Tell me what you're seeing.

HE TAPS A KEY:
SOUND OF GROWLING ECHOES

I don't know, but I can hear it now.

I knew what effect it had had on
a superior mind, so I needed to try
it on an average one.

You know what I mean.

But it wasn't in the sugar.
- No, well,

I wasn't to know you'd already
been exposed to the gas.
- So you got it wrong.

No.
- Hmm.

You were wrong. It wasn't in
the sugar, you got it wrong.
- A bit.

It won't happen again.

Any long-term effects?

None at all. You'll be fine once
you've excreted it. We all will.

I think I might have taken care
of that already.

Where are you going?
- I won't be a minute.

Got to see a man about a dog.

All right, let him go.
