Watson tries to find the thankless Holmes a sponsor. A bomb takes out a lot of hipster web designers. Holmes has to solve the case as this show is like ‘Numb3rs’ where the investigators can’t do their jobs without an insufferable genius telling them what to do. Holmes solves the bombing, locates a body and reveals a sordid tale of sex, lies and videotape. This wasn’t good.

Johnny McKee
Lucy is still unresponsive and comatose. How did the 1960’s Alcatraz doctors end up in the present day, unaged and working for Hauser? McKee a mass murderer from 1960 gets a jobs as a barman and a pool boy so he can poison people. How does he have such a handy collection of poisons?
Flashbacks to 1960 show McKee dealing with a prison bully and Lucy doing shady things. This was okay but so much makes no sense. Where did McKee get his equipment? How did he get onto the subway and know how to operate it? What will become of the 63s?

“You don’t want to say no to me.”
“It’s a killing jar with people.”
“He was poisoned. I wonder who could have managed such a feat in a room of 40 people.”
“Till I my long laborious work complete.”
