So much creativity in this show, but here it seems as though they worked out the ending and simply half-assed their way back to the starting point. So why was horse tranquilizer used...how was it delivered, and how much was delivered to them kill some who ate the victim.? And speaking of the victim, where did his body go? Nobody noticed a massive amount of fresh sausage from this guy's body? And what about everyone else who ate him? And why did this guy decide to kill him and make sausage of him rather than some alternative disposal method? And why choose sausage making to dispose of the body? And why use anise? And what background does this guy have in sausage making to make him want to use this as a disposal method? Sorry. Interesting overall story, but serious holes in the premise. Beyond preposterous. Seems like by the later seasons, the writers get super lazy.

The usual hate and ignorance
supermaggie13 October 2017
Warning: Spoilers
I never doubted Watson, but in this episode she is awfully ignorant (and recklessly prodigal) when throwing away the two sandwiches - at least Holmes then confronts her that it is worse to eat a dead body than something from a lab. Even worse: the bad guy has - of course - a German name. You cannot expect Hollywood to make an episode showing tolerance towards Muslims and Jews - and that's it. No, you have to have someone to hate, this is how the US work. And what is more obvious (and dull and lacking realism and suitability and originality etc.) than again (again, again, again...) bash the Germans. Look at your own country, there is enough you can hate, and contemporarily. A low point for a formerly good show.
