Quotes6

  • John Watson: Dudley is going to pay dearly for this. Punch to the jaw, jab to the ribs...
  • Sherlock Holmes: Now, now, Watson. Revenge is sweetest when it's served up cold. Come on.
  • [Dudley enters with snow-white hair]
  • Dudley: Holmes. You did this. You're responsible, aren't you?
  • Sherlock Holmes: So that's where I dropped my chemistry experiment: into your tea. Oh, don't worry, old chap. It'll wear off shortly. You should be back to normal - by summertime.
  • Dudley: I want to enlist in the army. A general.
  • Dudley's Friend: Generals don't make any money. I would prefer to be an author.
  • Dudley: Authors don't make money.
  • Boy: I want to be a barrister.
  • Dudley's Friend: Barristers make money.
  • [Over dinner, the student are discussing what they will do in later life]
  • John Watson: I want to be a doctor.
  • Dudley: Nobody asked you!
  • John Watson: Sorry!
  • Dudley: Only seconds left, Holmes. I assume you've given up.
  • Sherlock Holmes: Never assume anything, my good fellow.
  • Dudley: But Holmes, I see no sign of a trophy.
  • Sherlock Holmes: But I do.
  • [Holmes picks up a vase and prepares to shatter it]
  • Master Snelgrove: Stop! Holmes, have you gone mad? This is an antique!
  • [Holmes shatters the vase, revealing the stolen trophy]
  • Dudley: Elizabeth was just admiring my new timepiece. Would you like to see?
  • Sherlock Holmes: Very interesting.
  • Dudley: All of the stylish gentlemen are wearing them.
  • Sherlock Holmes: Expensive?
  • Dudley: I bought it in Bond Street.
  • Sherlock Holmes: I find that unlikely.
  • Dudley: I beg your pardon?
  • Sherlock Holmes: Had you taken a moment to examine the face, you'd have discovered it is typically French in style. Yet according to this inscription, the exterior was made in Switzerland. Yes. My suspicion was correct, the works are obviously Italian in origin. Congratulations, Dudley, your stylish timepiece is a fraud.
  • Dudley: Keep your opinions to yourself, Holmes.
  • Dudley: Holmes, what about you? What do you want to be when you grow up?
  • Sherlock Holmes: I never want to be alone.
