Plot

"To be so, so close some answers which I've sought for so long. I cannot come up empty-handed."

— Holmes

On the phone, a man claiming to be Moriarty taunts Holmes for being deceived into delivering a message to Sebastian Moran which resulted in his suicide. Holmes asks if he killed Irene Adler. He tells Holmes to find the killer of a man named Wallace Rourke, bring the killer to justice and he'll answers all Holmes' questions on what happened to Irene. Holmes begins investigating Rourke which Watson points out is dangerous, given all those killed since he began hunting Moriarty. Holmes believes Moriarty has had plenty of opportunities to kill him and doesn't want him dead. At the 11th Precinct, Holmes gets Rourke's file and plans to visit his widow. Watson is called to Captain Gregson's office where he asks if she'd like to be a sober companion for a friend's daughter in Florida. Watson leaves without committing.

You want answers. I don't blame you.

Music

Mozart - Overture to Don Giovanni plays at episode end as Holmes and Watson find Irene.

Trivia

The quote "spider in the center of a web" is from Conan Doyle's The Final Problem describing Moriarty.^[1]
Holmes calls Irene Adler "The Woman" in this episode, and that in his eyes she eclipses and predominates the whole of her sex. A Scandal in Bohemia opens with "To Sherlock Holmes she is always the woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other name. In his eyes she eclipses and predominates the whole of her sex."^[2]
The house at the end of the episode where Irene is found, is the Commandant's House on Evans Street in Brooklyn, New York.
