"It's a case with training wheels."

— Holmes to Watson

Six months previously, in a NYC subway station, a young woman, Vivian Tully, is waiting for her train when she is approached by a bearded man in a hoodie and sunglasses, who gives her a bouquet of flowers. (♫ Paganini - 24 Caprices for Solo Violin, Op. 1 ♫) She calls a friend to relate the generosity, explaining that his girlfriend stood him up and he didn't want them to go to waste. The man then pushes her in front of an oncoming train. At a bar, Watson is having drinks with Emily Hankins, and married couple Ken and Hope. Watson receives a text from Hemdale, excuses herself and calls Hemdale's director. He's recommended her services to his latest patient, and wants to know if accepts. She does but is puzzled by the name Sherlock. In present day, Watson breaks into a car and tries to hot-wire it. The alarm sounds and unable to stop it, she gives up. Alfredo is sitting in the passenger seat, turns off the alarm and says she's getting better. A text from Holmes summons her to The Brownstone.

How weird is this?

At home, Holmes is fuming as his father has called in the favor for lending Holmes $2.2M to ransom Rhys Kinlan's daughter even though Holmes returned the money. He's required to meet with attorney Philip Armistead. Meeting him, they discover the favor is for his assistant, Rebecca Burrell. Rebecca's sister, Callie, disappeared six months ago. She plays a video that Callie sent to her husband, Drew Gardner, in which she's leaving Drew as she realized life is too short when she saw a news story about a woman with flowers, Vivian Tully, who was pushed in front of a subway train. Callie can't be found and Rebecca suspects Drew as their marriage had issues and Callie had left him before. Rebecca also shows them a picture of an antique trunk that disappeared when Callie did. A cherished heirloom, Rebecca loaned it to Callie wouldn't have left without returning it. Holmes looks at the details of the subway pusher on his phone and leaves with Watson.

He managed to convince them the video was authentic.

Holmes is convinced that Callie's video is authentic, not made under duress and would be the ideal first case for Watson. At the Brownstone, Holmes is intrigued with the subway pusher and reviews the surveillance video. The man's face isn't visible but it is known he had a beard and wore sunglasses. Holmes also notes a distinctive patch on the pusher's jacket. Reviewing Rebecca's files, Watson remarks that investigators were very thorough in their search for Callie and she plans to question her husband, Drew, at an art gallery he owns. Watson receives a phone call from Emily, realizes she forgot about their meeting that night but Emily agrees to reschedule. Watson questions Drew who claims to not know why Callie left him, that the subway pusher story depressed her and that Callie took the trunk when she left.

She seemed a little distant of late.

Watson is convinced Drew killed Callie as many of the answers he gave her were exactly the same ones he gave the police years before. However, she has no proof and doesn't know what to do next. Holmes shows her "gaslighting", using a burner phone to sent Drew an anonymous text that he knows he killed Callie and where her body is. She'll then have to watch Drew for incriminating actions. At the 11th Precinct, Holmes shows Captain Gregson footage from the subway camera taken days before Vivian Tully was killed. Holmes noticed a man was following her who can be identified, Anson Samuels. He's questioned in "the box" and claims ignorance but once Holmes confronts him with the video and that he worked in Tully's building, he admits his obsession with her. However, he has proof he's not the killer and shows them a video he took of the incident. Holmes calls Watson on her stake-out of Drew and reminds her of her meeting with Emily which, she's forgotten. Holmes has sent Alfredo to relieve her.

I would never have hurt Vivian.

Holmes studies Samuels' video and notices a busker playing violin who appears to recognize the pusher and leaves. Arriving late, Watson meets Emily at a bar and is surprised that Ken and Hope are there as well. Emily indicates there's a reason she invited them, that she's learned from Watson's mother that she's a detective now and they are worried about her. Watson recognizes an intervention and doesn't react well. When Emily points out the recent career changes, that's she's living with a former drug addict and makes a demeaning analogy, Watson leaves. She joins Alfredo on stake-out outside a storage unit that he followed Drew to. They watch Drew wheel out an antique trunk and load it into the back of his SUV. Watson believes that he used the trunk to store Callie's body and due to the "gaslighting" text, he's moving it. Alfredo wants to call the police, but when Drew returns to the storage unit, she crowbars open the SUV hatch. She's caught by a security guard who she explains the situation to. The guard forces Drew to open the trunk which is empty.

I'm sorry, but you seem lost.

Holmes visits Watson in jail and pays her bail where she relates that Drew did take the trunk, after Callie disappeared, and sold it. He bought it back and Watson caught him picking it up. Holmes encourages her that though she was wrong about the trunk, she may be right about Drew's guilt. On a street corner, Holmes and Detective Bell track down the busker, Thaddeus. Once confronted, Holmes takes him aside and says that Thaddeus is also a pickpocket, he left the station because he recognized the pusher and threatens to turn him in to Bell. Thaddeus admits he'd been caught trying to rob the pusher sometime before the pushing and punched him. He thought the pusher might remember him so, he left. Seeing Thaddeus checking his coat to rob him, Holmes asks Thaddeus about the patch on the pusher's jacket. At the Brownstone, Holmes shows Watson a color photo of the patch, reconstructed from Thaddeus' description.

I wasn't there when it actually went down.

At the precinct, Holmes shows the patch to Gregson and Bell. Drew is present and has agreed to not press charges against Watson, as long as she apologizes. Holmes defends her but she apologizes, quits the investigation and plans to tell Rebecca. At Rebecca's apartment, Watson explains the situation but sees an electronic picture of Callie wearing a jacket with the patch. Rebecca says the jacket belonged to Drew and Watson finds out Drew had a beard when Callie disappeared. At the Brownstone, Holmes and Watson review the evidence board with both Vivian Tully's murder and Callie Burrell's disappearance. Watson doubts herself but a rebuking from Holmes brings renewed focus. She realizes that the subway pushing was more than just the catalyst for Callie's disappearance.

She called it his "hippie coat."

In "the box" Drew repeats to Gregson and Bell that he did not kill Callie. He's never met Vivian Tully and states he gave away the jacket with the patch. Holmes relates that Watson deduced that he was Tully's pusher. She remembered that Callie had left him once before, 18 months ago, and Bell shows a news article about Anna Peters, who was accidentally pushed under a subway train 18 months before, by a scuffle among some teenagers. The news stories mentioned that Peters was carrying flowers. Six months ago, Drew realized that if he recreated the Anna Peters event mentioned in Callie's video, he could kill her and the video would give a rationale for her disappearance. Drew accuses Watson of creating circumstances to arrest him, to make up for the mistake that led to her arrest. Gregson has Drew confirm that Callie's video was from six months ago. Gregson then shows him a deleted email sent to him from Callie's account, with the video from 18 months previous, which Drew re-sent himself six months ago using Callie's account.

You had a beard like the one in that sketch.

In bed at the Brownstone with her tablet, Watson takes a call from Emily who apologizes for doubting her. She mentions that her editor assigned her a story which is the case that Watson solved. Holmes interrupts with some cold case files which he's cracked, but wants to time how long it takes her. He congratulates her success but doesn't want it to go to her head. Watson tells Emily that something work-related has come up and they'll talk another time. (♫ Junip - Line of Fire ♫) She makes an edit to her social media profile, changing her job description from "Sober Companion" to "Consulting Detective."

Watson moves on.

Music

Niccolò Paganini - 24 Caprices for Solo Violin, Op. 1: Caprice in C Major, Op. 1, No. 11 plays at the episode beginning.
Junip - Line of Fire plays at episode end.

Trivia

"There is no branch of detective science which is so important and so much neglected as the art of tracing footsteps" is a quote from Arthur Conan Doyle's A Study in Scarlet.
Holmes refers to the bargain struck with his father for the money to ransom the daughter of Rhys Kinlan. ("A Giant Gun, Filled with Drugs")
Holmes' practice dummy "Bob" still has the two bullet holes in the chest that he shot in it while testing a gun found in Bell's apartment. ("Details")
Watson indicates that she's going to do her best Columbo impersonation, referencing the long-running TV show.
Holmes references the stage play Gas Light (known in the United States as Angel Street), which also inspired a film adaptation named Gaslight, in which a man attempts to drive his wife insane in order to protect a secret. As Holmes says, the play gave rise to the use of the term "gaslighting" to mean "a form of psychological abuse in which false information is presented to the victim with the intent of making him/her doubt his/her own memory and perception".
Holmes jokingly refers to when Watson bailed him out of jail. ("Pilot")
A similar premise was used in the episode "Mr. Monk and the Class Reunion" of the USA television series Monk. In that episode, a husband discovers an old suicide note written by his wife, and spends the week of her college reunion "re-creating" the events referred to in the note, planning to murder her and then produce the note as proof that she committed suicide.

Quotes

Joan, you quit your job and moved out of your apartment so you could live full-time with a recovering drug addict who's going to teach you how to be some sort of gumshoe?
— Emily Hankins

Sherlock rants that $2 million is a ''"pittance"'' to a man like Morland, and, moreover, the kidnapper was foiled and Sherlock returned every penny of the loan, yet his father has still commanded him to meet with one of his many attorneys.

Rebecca's sister, Callie, disappeared six months ago, and Rebecca suspects foul play. She plays them a video that Callie emailed to her husband, Drew Gardner: on it, Callie says that she doesn't love Drew anymore, and is leaving him; hearing on the news about ''"the woman with flowers"'' killed on the subway has made her realize that life is too short. She apologizes to Drew, and asks him to forgive her. Since then, Rebecca says, Callie has not spoken to any of her friends or family, and Armistead's firm's top investigators have already tried to find her, without success. Rebecca believes that Drew had something to do with Callie's disappearance; their marriage was already in trouble, and Callie had left drew a year and a half ago, before reconciling with him. For added proof, Rebecca shows Holmes and Watson photos of an antique trunk that was a gift to the sisters from their grandmother, which disappeared at the same time as Callie. Drew claims not to know what happened to it, but Rebecca is certain that Callie would not have taken it without telling her.

However, he thinks this would make an excellent first case for Watson to tackle solo: after all, he explains, ''"every good investigator needs to be able to find people who do not wish to be found,"'' but Callie Burrell is a bored housewife rather than a fugitive criminal: ''"it's a case with training wheels."'' Joan protests that there may very well be something to Rebecca's suspicions, and Holmes rejoins that if there is, it's her job to find out, since he will be occupied with his own case: finding the subway pusher who killed the woman Callie referred to. Holmes says he found another pusher, who killed one of his informants back in London, and is confident he can find this one as well.

He remarks on the care the killer took to keep his face turned away from the camera, indicating he had studied the layout of the station in advance. Yet most subway pushers are psychopaths, not given to such careful planning.

-Holmes takes a box of cheap, disposable cell phones - ''"burners"'' - from his closet and texts an anonymous message to Drew's cell phone, ''"I know you killed her, I know what you did with her body."'' This technique, he explains, is called ''"gaslighting"'', psychologically destabilizing a suspect in the hopes of provoking a revealing mistake. If Drew is guilty, then he might be unnerved enough to retrieve Callie's body from wherever he dumped it. Watson's next job is to rent a car so she can follow Drew around without being noticed. Meanwhile, Holmes has an appointment at the precinct with Gregson.

However, the man abruptly stopped playing and packed up his violin and left a few seconds before the pusher came up behind Tully, indicating that he might have recognized the man. Leaving the conference room, Holmes takes a call on his cell from Watson, who is parked outside Drew's gallery.

-|text=On a street corner, Holmes and [[Marcus Bell|Detective Bell]] track down the violin player, Thaddeus. At first, he claims not to know what they are talking about, but Holmes shrewdly guesses that Thaddeus is a pickpocket as well as a violin player, and he left the station because he was afraid that one of his victims - the pusher - had realized he was robbed and was coming back towards him. Holmes also guesses that Thaddeus' reflex is to ''"case"'' every coat he sees for possible openings, which means he could describe the jacket the pusher was wearing in perfect detail. Watson arrives at the bar, apologizes for being late, and raises a glass with Emily, Ken and Hope, who are eager to hear what she's been doing. Joan starts to tell them, but is stunned and hurt by their reaction: Ken and Hope laugh incredulously, thinking Joan is playing some kind of joke on them - she can't seriously expect them to believe that she is giving up her career as a sober companion so a recovering drug addict can teach her to be a ''"gumshoe"''? When Joan says this is no joke, and she is Sherlock's partner, Ken wonders aloud if Joan has gotten ''"involved"'' with her former client, but is giving them a story because she's too embarrassed to admit it. Icily, Joan puts down her drink and says it was a bad idea for her to meet with them while she has work to do. As she heads for the door, Emily catches up with her and says that Ken and Hope may be tactless, but she is Joan's friend, and is worried that Joan is going down the wrong path; ''"I know you, and whatever else you may be, you're no detective."'' Without a word, Joan turns and walks out.

They watch Drew wheel out an antique trunk and load it into the back of his SUV - the same trunk that Rebecca said disappeared at the same time as Callie. Excitedly, Watson says the pieces fit: Drew used the trunk to stash Callie's body, and now he is moving it after being spooked by Sherlock's text. Alfredo says they need to call the police, but Watson says no, she needs to confirm her theory first. When Drew heads back inside the storage unit, Watson grabs a jimmy, runs to the SUV and opens the rear hatch. Before she can finish, however, Drew comes back and demands to know what she's doing. Watson says she will gladly explain, as long as Drew opens the trunk first. But when uniformed officers arrive in response to Drew's 911 call, the trunk is opened, and found to be empty.

-|text=Watson spends the night in jail, and Holmes bails her out (ruefully acknowledging the reversal of [[Pilot|an earlier scenario]]). Holmes explains that Drew has explained to the police that he did steal the trunk after Callie disappeared, since it is a valuable antique and his gallery is in financial trouble, but he kept it in storage because he was reluctant to admit the theft. Holmes tries to encourage Watson, telling her that, given all the facts, her theory was perfectly plausible, even if it turned out to be wrong. She replies dejectedly that she has never seen Holmes mess up that badly, and if he had been there, Callie's body ''would'' have been inside the trunk. At the Brownstone, Holmes shows her a color photo of the patch from the pusher's jacket, reconstructed from Thaddeus' description. She has trouble believing that he could find a jacket from a patch, but he replies, ''"stranger things, Watson."''

-|text=At the precinct, Holmes shows the picture to Gregson and Bell. Gregson says Drew is at the station, and has agreed not to press charges against Watson, as long as she apologizes for her behavior. Sherlock angrily says she was just following a lead, but Watson interjects that she should and will apologize - and, moreover, that she can no longer investigate Callie Burrell's disappearance and will have to make her apologies to Rebecca. At Rebecca's apartment, Watson arrives and begins to apologize to her; because of her arrest, she can no longer follow Drew around, and she is afraid that she misled Rebecca about her level of expertise as a detective... but the apology stops when Watson catches sight of an electronic picture frame on Rebecca's mantle, showing a picture of Callie wearing a jacket with a very distinctive patch. Watson asks about it, and Rebecca says the jacket belonged to Drew, he used it for concert-going when he was younger, and Callie borrowed it on a picnic day when the weather was cold. Stunned, Watson asks if Drew has ever worn a beard. Confused, Rebecca says he did, though he shaved it off around the time Callie disappeared - why is it important? Watson is speechless.

-|text=Holmes and Watson review the evidence board, with Vivian Tully's murder and Callie Burrell's disappearance lined up side by side. Sherlock reviews what they know: six months ago, Vivian Tully was killed by an unknown man, who they now have strong reason to believe was Drew Gardner. He had no connection with Vivian Tully and no discernible motive to kill her, but her death prompted Callie Burrell to leave Drew. They have reason to believe Callie is likewise dead, and Drew had a strong motive for killing her, but they have no evidence for either. There is no link between the two crimes, ''"yet it defies belief that the two are not connected somehow."'' Is it possible, Holmes wonders, that Drew killed Vivian in the expectation that it would cause his wife to leave him, and give him a pretext for making her disappear?

-|text=Watson says that doesn't make sense, and starts to wonder if she is wrong about Drew's identity as the subway pusher as well. Holmes irritably tells her that if she wants to ''"wallow in self-doubt"'', she should do it in private. Exasperated, Watson reminds Holmes that she made a mistake that got her arrested, and Holmes rejoins that she also discovered a clue that may solve both crimes. The only question is, does she want to solve the case, or continue to wallow? After only a moment, Watson's answer is clear: she wants to solve the case. Holmes re-phrases the question: there is no discernible link between the two women in their two cases, yet there must be some connection, so ''"how in this case does A lead to B?"'' Watson looks at the board for a few moments, then has an epiphany: what if, instead, ''"B lead to A?"''

-|text=In the interrogation room at the precinct, Drew Gardner repeats to Gregson and Bell that he did not kill Callie and the last he heard from her was six months ago, when he received her farewell message. As for Vivian Tully, he never met her, and of course the jacket which they say ties him to the crime was given away months ago. Holmes admits that he was stumped, but that was when he thought the only explanation for the evidence was that Drew killed Vivian Tully in the hopes of driving his wife to leave him. Then Watson remembered that Callie had left him once before. The farewell message was not recorded six months ago, it was recorded and sent ''eighteen'' months ago, when Callie first left Drew. Bell lays down a copy of a news article about a woman named Anna Peters, who was accidentally pushed under a subway train eighteen months ago, by a scuffle among some teenagers. Several of the news stories that covered the accident mentioned that Peters was carrying a bouquet of flowers, on her way to the hospital to visit a sick friend. She was ''"the woman with the flowers"'' Callie was referring to, not Vivian Tully.

-|text=Drew realized he had been handed a means to kill his wife and disguise her disappearance. All he had to do was "recreate" the events referred to in the video, by staging the death of a second woman, also with flowers, in a public setting that would be covered by the news. Then he could kill Callie, dispose of her body, and produce the video as proof that she had left him a second time. For a moment - a moment so brief that it might be imaginary - Drew looks frightened. Then he manufactures an incredulous laugh, calling Watson ''"a woman with a crazy story,"'' that she's cooked up because she ''"wants him to be guilty"'' to cover her own embarrassing mistake. Gregson asks if Drew is sticking to his story that he received Callie's farewell message six months ago, and Drew insists that he is. Then Gregson informs him that they found the original email archived on the server; Drew deleted it when he first received it, then re-sent it to himself six months ago, but, Watson informs him, the archive proves when it was actually sent. ''"But don't take my word for it,"'' she smiles, ''"I'm just a woman with a crazy story."''

-|text=A few nights later, Watson is sitting up in bed, gazing at her tablet and reviewing her profile on a professionals website. Her phone rings with a call from Emily, and after a few seconds' hesitation, Watson picks up. Emily says she can't, and won't, apologize for being concerned about her friend's well-being, but she is profoundly sorry for doubting her abilities. It turns out that her editor has just assigned her ''"the craziest story"'': a man who committed a subway murder to cover up the murder of his own wife, and the private investigator who cracked the case six months later. Joan smiles. Their conversation is interrupted by Sherlock, who says a colleague in London just sent him some cold case files; Holmes just cracked the case, but wants to time how long it takes Joan to do the same - she may celebrate her success, but should not let herself become complacent. Watson apologizes to Emily and rings off. Before following Sherlock downstairs, Joan makes one edit to her professional profile, changing her job description from "Sober Companion" to "Consulting Detective."
