Quotes 

• Sherlock Holmes : Her breasts, Watson.

  Dr. Joan Watson : What do Paige's breasts have to do with anything?

  Sherlock Holmes : No, not - not Paige's, Beth Stone's. You saw them earlier.

  Dr. Joan Watson : I really wasn't looking at them.

• Dr. Joan Watson : Please tell me there is not a body in that bag.

  Sherlock Holmes : Deduction is your stock in trade, Watson. Have some pride.

  Dr. Joan Watson : Okay... two bodies?

  Sherlock Holmes : Medical bills and insurance claims pilfered from the office of Dr. Jonas Kiel, neurologist with a private practice uptown.

  Dr. Joan Watson : Oh yeah, I would have totally figured that out.

• Dr. Joan Watson : You can stop mocking her story. She's lying; I'm sold.

• [Joan Watson identifies an apparent murder victim from the background of a 30-year-old snippet of film, and then shows Sherlock Holmes on her laptop the archived news story of his disappearance] 

  Dr. Joan Watson : This is the victim, no question. Quentin Latham was a big union leader. A reformer. He clashed with the mob.

  Sherlock Holmes : And then he took an eight-inch buck knife to the solar plexus.

  Dr. Joan Watson : Well, they didn't know that back then. He just fell off the map in 1987. Two years later, his bones showed up in a box outside the Local 127. All the big families denied it, but the message was clear.

  [Sherlock stares at Joan] 

  Dr. Joan Watson : What?

  Sherlock Holmes : You know, you're always keen to hear stories about my unusual childhood but I don't think I had anything on you. Who follows mafia exploits with such zeal in grade school?

  Dr. Joan Watson : [embarrassed]  Well, I also collected stickers.
