- [Moriarty is lying on the floor, bleeding from a gunshot wound]
- Jamie Moriarty: Your letters have meant a great deal to me. I find them influencing my decisions in the most surprising ways.
- Sherlock Holmes: You could have killed Agent Mattoo. And from your perspective, it would have been the expedient thing.
- Jamie Moriarty: And yet, to you, it would have been repugnant. Tell me, is that how you learned to be one of them? By learning to care how your actions seemed in the eyes of another?
- Sherlock Holmes: ...I'm not sure I am one of them.
- Jamie Moriarty: Would you be surprised to learn you've been on my mind, Joan Watson?
- Dr. Joan Watson: Not really.
- Jamie Moriarty: I don't typically misread people, but you're more clever than I initially anticipated. More interesting. If you weren't, I would never have been caught.
- Dr. Joan Watson: I think you give me too much credit.
- Jamie Moriarty: It's what you crave, is it not? Acknowledgment from a superior mind. Evidence that you matter. Why else pursue a partnership with a man like Sherlock?
- Dr. Joan Watson: Actually the partnership was his idea. That bothers you, doesn't it?
- Jamie Moriarty: I confess I don't understand it, but I'm drawn to things I don't understand. Same as Sherlock. Once I've figured you out, I'll move on. Same as Sherlock.
- Dr. Joan Watson: Is that why you've been writing him? Because you want to... understand him?
- Jamie Moriarty: Part of it, I suppose.
- Dr. Joan Watson: And the rest?
- Jamie Moriarty: What do you think?
- Dr. Joan Watson: You think you're in love with him. Only you can't be sure, because as much as you claim to know about the world, love is something you don't quite get.
- Jamie Moriarty: You'd be surprised what I'd do for love.
- Dr. Joan Watson: Nothing crazy people do surprises me.'
- Jamie Moriarty: I write to Sherlock because he's the only person on the planet I can really talk to. He writes to me because I'm the only one he can talk to. The only one he can ever truly relate to. If you still don't understand that, you will someday. I promise.
- Jamie Moriarty: Would it surprise you to learn that during the course of my internment here, I have devised exactly 17 means us escaping, 6 of which can account for the extra precautions like my... bracelets.
- Ramses Mattoo: I can only come up with... 10.
