August 27th 2018’s Episode

There are many things to talk about in this post relating to this show, or at least, this blog. But I said that I will share animal songs in this blog and I will. I’ll get to more of the other things that I want to mention later in this post. For now, enjoy one of my favorite newer songs about Fireflies.

Something that the disguises that the two women has on in the last episode made me think of part of the Steve Martin movie: The Pink Panther. Basically, his character and an associate were able to help go through a place due to things that they wore. Sorry that this isn’t an English version as I didn’t look long to find one and just went with the first thing that I think was right.

SPOILER! Here are the Wisconsin senate primary results. Tammy Baldwin won Democratic primary. She had an opponent at one point, but not when it came time for the primary. Leah Vukmir ended up with the win of the Republican primary. There are some independents as write-ins, but I don’t think that they will do much in terms of the election. Leah is who I wanted to win the primary on her side, but I have yet to see if she would be a good choice in the general election or not. END SPOILER.

Movie update: Catch me if You Can was watched on Saturday and is now Déjà Vu. A home video was watched and it remains on the list to be watched later. If I do wind up being able to create a third list of movies to watch, it would be on Fridays. I don’t yet know if I will continue these movie updates in a blog that’s not this one this time around.

There were some parallels this season with what Riverdale also did this season. They had a villain known as the Black Hood show up. For the middle part of the season, he wasn’t part of the show as he was thought to be dead as one of the people using that identity was dead. Michael is kind of like that, only his real identity wasn’t a mystery to us or anyone else for that matter.

Something that I’ve noticed this season is that the airing dates of some of the earliest episodes of this season were exactly the one year anniversary of when the previous season’s episodes had aired. This works as it was on Sundays last season and Mondays on this season. I have no idea just how little this would have happened in any other show.

I hadn’t really given my thoughts on Michael’s return yet, so here they are. I think that I liked the way that they brought him back for the most part. He was going to come back at some point. I just hope that he continues to be a good villain.

John Nobel from this show was on Salvation’s most recent episode. I still don’t know if I should have done a blog about it or not. Since when I would post that blog could be a bit confusing if I had done that, then I should be glad that I haven’t done it. Plus, I don’t know what I would have done with it when the show isn’t on. Maybe I just would have put nothing in its place. That’s what I did with this blog when it had been on hiatus. And I’ll do it again too.

The first act has Sherlock directing some sort of music thing or appears to be at least. It is preparation of some sort that is interrupted by a phone call from Watson. Mr. Horovich comes over about a matter of life and death. This is a new character, I think. This person had written obituaries of people who had died before they had died with accurate details of how they would die. He predicted three people’s deaths so far and Sherlock is another predicted death.

The second act has more of David Harrowvich or whatever his last name is after Sherlock abandoned the thing Watson wanted him to do. Would someone gun down Sherlock on the street? David shows him the basement of this person’s place. What is the difference between reality and virtual reality? Do the people in video games cause potential issues for people?

There is a person from a previous case that they bring up. It is Mr. Baskerville. I need to read The Hound of the Baskervilles when this show is over to do a review of it for this blog. I’ve never had to do a book report for school so this might give me the practice I need to do it.

Sherlock thinks that someone, possibly an Atheist, wants to kill people in order to prove this theory and disprove God. You can’t disprove God. Prayer proves he exists. Sherlock is certain that the three people who died thus far are all murder victims. Mr. Baskerville might know who the intended victims are. He has written a long and lengthy will. Mine have never been that long. And all I have to do is get a notary involved and I don’t have to mess with lawyers. I need to work on my annual will. Maybe I should do that when this show is over.

Sherlock’s account has been drained. Did he only have one or are all of them drained? He is not shocked by this for some reason. They talk to a relative of victim #3 of this episode and let him know that they think she was killed. Watson and Marcus go to the roof and it doesn’t seem like there is much up there. They have tape of her death and don’t see any foul play which makes Marcus think that there could be something to the theory of clairvoyance.

The third act has Sherlock rewatching the footage with him thinking that a sonic cannon might have caused the death, only it is unlikely. David calls and the news was somehow tipped off into what had happened. Perhaps a friend of the so called psychic was an accomplice who helped kill these people. Sherlock talks to a news person and she gives information. Marcus and Tommy find a website that had leaked the information about the dead people.

I wonder if it’s possible that Michael is behind this. I do not think that he is, but he could be or had hired someone. Sherlock has gotten an update on his money or something weird like that. Henry Baskerville shows up again with some sort of information. A person tried to hang himself. This seems to have been to avoid a worse death.

The fourth act is when they talk to the person in the hospital and they think he was the killer. He says that he didn’t do it and might know who did. I don’t understand the pirate gold that Sherlock has now. Watson thinks that a page is missing because none of the predictions on it came true.

Henry caused a person to cause a false alarm because of a potential terrorist plot there. Didn’t that already happen? And wasn’t Alex Parrish falsely charged with it? I remember seeing this three years ago. I guess that the show is not on sync with the other one. David is now a suspect for some reason. He made them do some sort of thing that caused more problems.

The fifth act has Marcus talking to Tommy like they normally do. The side characters have to stay with what they normally do. I don’t fully understand what is going on. Maybe it is poor audio quality and the fact that I didn’t turn on subtitles. Watson found a picture that got the information he needed. A tree had given the information that they needed to find out how the crimes were committed: there was a part of the tree that made people highly subject to the power of suggestion. How that got them to where they were, I think I missed. It can be hard to stay fully focused when I’m writing this. I do wonder if I should live tweet an episode of this in the future. At the moment, I won’t. But I do need to get on to spread a current event hashtag I want to start. Edward F Dolan was an important person who worked on the show, but I don’t know who he is.

On the next Elementary, Sherlock once again wakes up Watson in a weird way with a thing on his or someone else’s face. That’s a stupid promo! I hope that they can do something better in the future. It is possible that they don’t want to spoil anything major. I just hope that they can get Michael back before the end of the season. When will the season end? It will have to end sometime next month. Know that it is possible that the when of when this blog is posted could change soon. I don’t yet know if the change will happen or be long term. Just have a heads up that it might be on a Monday in the future. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

August 20th 2018’s Episode

In the last blog post, I mentioned how I had a video with a link to information about the Uncanny Valley that they talked about in the last episode. Hopefully you watched the movie that I recommended. If you have, then you should be able to enjoy this video and see the reference at around the 3:45 mark. There is also a Wikipedia article about it as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJuF9n2c248

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncanny_valley

I referenced a song from VeggieTales called The Bunny Song in the last post. I was inspired to do so because of the 3D printed chocolate bunny. There are three different versions of the song and here is a link to the original one that you probably won’t find anymore on DVD.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ML0Ho2EgvwY

Something that has changed in my life recently is that I finally bit the bullet and replaced my phone of 8 years. Since ringtones were essential to the plot of the last episode, I thought that I would share a link with you as to what my old ringtone was.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XD6RdI1QqCg

SPOILER! The Wisconsin governor results happened and I’ll get to the senate election in the next post now that the primary has happened. To little surprise, terrible incumbent, Scott Walker, wound up with the win on the Republican side, facing no serious threats in the primary. I don’t like Scott and due to him supporting my state’s horrible governor, Bruce Rauner, I might donate to the winner on the Democratic side. If you read my Madam Secretary blog, I had supported Dana Wachs, only he dropped out of the race before the primary. He endorsed Tony Evers, the winner of the Democratic primary. There are other people in the race (third party candidates) and look out for a special political post in my Madam Secretary blog about the race in question. END SPOILER.

Movie update: On Saturday, I watched The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. I replaced that with some graduation DVDs of mine. I’ll start with the one from grade school. I also watched a home video and that will remain on the list until I have finished watching it.

The first act has a strange woman who is painted in a weird way. Is she naked? I can’t tell for sure. But who is this person? And there’s another woman there too. Have we seen these people before? After helping with this, Sherlock is called into the doctor’s office who informs him that the office was robbed. We then see entomology, I think, which I don’t know what it means? Only a dead hand is found in this whole thing. As much as I like this show, it just doesn’t have many things different from most of the other procedurals that you see on TV.

The second act has the victim identified as the worm hunter. Aren’t worms related to programming in some way? Or am I confused? Sherlock notices problems with the footage at campus and thinks that it has been altered in many ways. Did that person just say that he stole DTD but didn’t steal it? I think that I misheard something there. Sherlock notices a problem relating to a woman named Iris. Is it that her child arrived from the future? A worm was named after her. Who wouldn’t want to have a worm named after them? Sherlock tells Watson about what happened regarding his doctor visit.

Various women are called into the office and have different reactions to the worm hunter’s death. One that was hard to find gives information. Becca is the last person that they talk to. She was cheating on her husband and she thinks that he stole her car and admits to killing him. This seems like an odd time in the episode for us to know what happened. He says that he shot him, but the team learns that someone else had actually done the killing.

The third act has the reinvestigation of the dead body proving that he was shot and was wearing a thing that got him saved from the bullets. Hoodies seem to be important to the case. There is then a place that does construction featuring a different Sherlock Holmes, or at least, someone claiming to be that person. Sherlock warns this mystery man that he needs a new identity. The hoodie (am I spelling that right?) is possibly worth killing over. The new person they talk to tell him about a worm hunt that he paid a lot of money for. He thinks that he knows why someone was after him.

Sherlock watches a video of a video game. I don’t understand why some people don’t understand why others would want to watch it. You can see experts doing things that you would never dream of being able to do and not have to try to do it yourself. Sherlock is getting information in exchange for help with two of the current cases. Worm means computer virus. I was right and it is a technological term. They find the person who admits that she sent a death threat with a virus on it. And that wouldn’t be thought of as spam to some people? I can understand not wanting to ignore it. But some people wouldn’t be threatened for any reason. No one would have reason to threaten me.

The team debates more of some of the information about the case. They think that the worm hunter had stolen the hoodie and that it is what lead to his death. If they find the person who had the hoodie in the first place, they could find his killer.

The fourth act is when Marcus and Tommy talk some and Marcus brings the gun to a firing range so that he can test the murder weapon. Sherlock notices that the person who promised to help him had not finished helping him. He and Marcus then talk to a person who might have made the hoodie, but did not do it. Spiders are important to the case and might have been stolen.

Someone had hooked up with a person and she might have lead to the spider theft. This is the second person who they had talked to with the dead worm hunter. She had the hoodie and gave it to him. Sherlock comes up with another one of his Sherlock theories about how silk worms died and how she is the killer. Silk worm, we make great good impressions last.

The fifth act has Mr. Holt who had appeared earlier as the person who spent money on the worm hunt. The worms killed rare trees. They want information from him to help with the case and the one woman had saved her trees somehow. Sherlock then finds the person responsible for theft at the doctor’s office and we don’t yet learn who hired him to do this.

The silk worm lady is brought in and they figured out how she saved the trees and that lead to his death. She admits that she killed him after she saw what he had done with the worms. Sherlock tells Watson about the theft being discovered. This leads to Michael being brought as a character that we’ll see later. I was wondering when this would happen. But I knew that he would be back sooner or later. And they might as well have told us when they learned that he hired someone to do this.

On the next Elementary, Sherlock has to figure out his own future murder or something strange like that or something else entirely. We’ll see what happens in the next show. Will we see Michael again? He does make for an interesting villain, even if he is just evil for the sake of being evil. I will see you again next week as you wonder what animal songs I will share in the future. You will see at least five. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

August 13th 2018’s Episode

Something that I have to keep you updated about always is any changes to the book rotation that I have. To date, I haven’t finished anything and have only taken one thing off of it and put it back on. Well, in case I haven’t told you yet, Lights, Camera, Fiction, is now back in the rotation and I’ll be reading it more again in the future.

SPOILER! Here’s an update in the Missouri senate election. Living near Missouri means that I saw all of the commercials that kept happening the day after the primary without a break of any sort. Like the Illinois primary for governor, people were acting like they had already won the primary and they did wind up winning it. Democratic incumbent Claire McCaskill easily won her primary and Republican Josh Hawley won his easily as well. I don’t like Josh so we’ll see if he winds up winning or not. The Russians tried to attack Claire’s campaign so she must be doing something right. END SPOILER.

Movie update: There wasn’t much time for me to watch movies this past weekend. I was able to see Back to the Future Part 2 and replace it with Back to the Future Part 3. I still need to finish watching a series or standalone film from Sunday’s list in order for me to start a new list officially instead of going with the next in line to add to any list.

The first act has a sign shown of bad cop, no donut. What? Marcus has problems trying to finish getting his master’s degree while doing what he’s doing. I didn’t know he needed one. And since when was this a plot? There is a sex doll of interest relating to the Uncanny Valley. You know, I know a video that had mentioned that. I should share that in the next post. This doll might have witnessed the murder in some way, shape, or form.

The second act has a person talking about the sex dolls that are advanced in many ways. Skyler is the name of the doll in question who might be a witness. This show is weird! There’s a reason that people don’t like it, even if I think it is better than BBC’s Sherlock. Marcus talks to the robot who asks him for sex. He wants a rain check. Her reply, “I cannot check to see if it is raining.” The interview does not wind up helping much, but Watson notices that Skyler “is like a horny Alexa.” At least there is good humor. Also, isn’t Skyler a guy’s name? I’ve never heard of a woman called that.

Sherlock and Watson talk to the woman who is the inspiration for Skyler. She is mortified about the doll, but insists that she wouldn’t kill the person. She mentions working at a Catholic school, so hopefully they won’t do the usual attacking of religion, although they didn’t mention if she was religious or just worked at a Catholic case. Marcus talks to the teacher who rejected him for the class. This teacher does not like the company that he keeps. The next person that Sherlock and Watson talk to wind up giving them information about an incident that happened that might have related to the murdered person’s death. He reveals that teleportation is real somehow. This show is pushing the limits of reality at some times over others.

The third act has the same person talking about how teleportation could be real in a smaller scale than what it could be. He got an email through his blog, which I’m not sure how that’s possible. Someone had leaked the plans and it seems they might be against what they did for some reason. What was the thing that Sherlock did that pissed off the professor into not taking Marcus in as a student? There is then a bunny that is 3D printed from Switzerland to Sherlock. The bunny, the bunny, whoa, I ate the bunny. I’ll have to link that too in the next post. Sherlock then reveals that he was a drug addict back during the time that he would have known this professor.

Three people are talked to by Marcus and Watson. It is hard to keep track of who is who in these posts of mine, especially when they rarely, if ever, mention names of players. Someone broke into a locked room and stole plans of some sort. Someone, I can’t tell for sure who, but probably someone from some point earlier in the episode, appears to have been taken by the US military.

The fourth act has a general of some sort who will talk about the person who was captured. They think that the missing person is the killer. They also think that he leaked the information so he could continue working on it and not have it taken away by the government. Sherlock then apologizes to this person who tells him that he’s upset because he solved a case that was rightfully his to solve, if you can make sense of which pronoun is referring to Sherlock and who is referring to the professor.

We then see the person who might have been missing and wasn’t seen before. The three students at the labs seem to be the main suspects now. Crime a la Matlock: three suspects; which one is it? Is it all of them? Bruce would have been part of this group, only he wasn’t in some way due to some issue of some sort. Sherlock then talks to the Skyler some more. Also, do I want to know how there can be a lot of sexual positions? Even if you just include vaginal sex, there shouldn’t be a lot of them. Her musical taste might be the thing they need to solve the case.

The fifth act has the three people at the precinct and Skyler is there to identify the killer. Someone has their phone with a ringtone that is set up that Skyler heard and put on the music. Sherlock then talks to the professor guy again. What’s his name? A contact of Sherlock has a job offer for this teacher. Sherlock does not want to be this person’s enemy. Skyler wants Marcus to escape by saying that she had killed someone, only this is just Sherlock messing with people. Marcus sends in the captain next and learns that he is accepted into the class.

On the next Elementary, the case seems to relate to bugs in some way. The killer can hide in plain sight and it seems that motion capture might be a feature of the episode in question. There’s not much else to say, so I’ll be back next time with hopefully two videos: one that mentions the Uncanny Valley and another that mentions a chocolate bunny. Your homework now is to watch the movie Rogue One: A Star Wars Story if you haven’t seen it already so you can get the reference that is coming in the next post on Thursday. Guess you’ll have to wait to see what it is. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

August 12th 2018’s Episode

Surprise! I bet you might have missed an episode that aired on Sunday of this show. This messes up my blog just a bit, but not too much. I missed the episode when it aired and didn’t fully realize that it had aired until later. Thankfully, I can watch it later online. I knew that they would be airing an extra episode of this show at one point since they preempted a new one earlier.

It’s a good thing that I was able to learn of this episode. I was confused as to why the promo aired for an episode and then a different one had aired on Monday. It turns out that it had a day before. Was this change of airing mentioned in the promo and I missed it? I guess that I won’t know for sure. The post for Monday’s episode will come tomorrow. Now let’s get to the one in question that I very nearly missed and didn’t blog about. I just hope someone would have told me I had missed it.

The first act has a random person at Sherlock’s home who was doing an experiment with dead pigs in a river. This is quite a humorous exchange. Sherlock thinks that Watson was having sex with this person. I do not understand why it was there. A chicken named Irma is missing. I suspect foul play. Someone cut off the head of the chicken. There is also a headless person there too. I remember that my pastor had done a sermon on the beheading of John the Baptist.

The second act has us learning that the victim is named Gabriel. Gabriel was a religion professor and it seems that Sherlock thinks that there could be links to the occult relating to the murder. The professor cared about was occult stuff instead of good religions. We learn more from some person about what all could relate to the case. He thinks that a strange man with followers might have done it. Sherlock talks to Tommy about who could replace Marcus potentially. The people who work here get too annoyed by Sherlock for them to be good candidates.

Watson and Marcus talk to a person who is in jail for stealing a skull and he wanted them to stop by doing this occult thing. Sherlock learns that Gabriel didn’t have an enemy of any sort. Someone breaks a window with a glass bottle that somehow wasn’t broke in the process and it contains information about where they should go. This leads them to a priest who they think can help with the case.

The third act has the father talking more with Watson and Sherlock. He gives them more information about the case at hand. A woman is interviewed by Tommy about the potential opening here. There could be some issues, possibly some that she would have herself or with them. Marcus and Watson then talk to another woman. She thinks that a booze place of some sort might have done it. A woman by the name of Valentino is missing. That doesn’t sound like a woman’s name. When did this happen? I must have missed that. Sherlock talks to a person and reveals to Watson in his Sherlock ways that he knows that a person didn’t do the crime. Which crime?

The fourth act is when another person or someone from earlier is talked to by Sherlock and Watson. She is the person who threw the bottle through the window. I think that this person is Valentino and I did not quite get much else out of this part. She might have arranged her own disappearance so that people would think that she’s dead possibly. Tommy talks to a person about the incident that the woman had gone through with her partner. How interesting that a plot like this would have aired at the same time as a Shades of Blue episode. I need to see that online since I can’t see it live due to reception problems that NBC has where I live during the summer.

A person might have killed over the pictures that Sherlock is looking over and Sherlock had hung them upside down as a result. The head of Gabriel showed up. Is the killer trying to distract them? There is a politician who might have been responsible for the death in question.

The fifth act has the suspect brought in to the precinct. Sherlock says how he knows that he is the killer due to the wig that he wears. He was against a tax that could have lead to the death and seems like it did lead to it. He planted the crime scene to make it look like it was an occult killing and the chicken had his blood on his beak.

Tommy talks about how this person is too much like Sherlock and Watson. He wants someone more like Marcus since Marcus colors within the lines. Valentino, if that really is who I think it is, gives money for the broken window. She is pregnant? I’m confused by this. Sherlock is then seen shredding paper and he claims it was a bad idea that he’s destroying. Marcus and Sherlock then go out to eat. I don’t have any scenes from next time, but don’t need any as you will see it tomorrow. Hope that there will be no more of these weirdly timed episodes. Let’s hope that the airing of this show is over before the next breaking news event preempts shows. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

August 6th 2018’s Episode

I had mentioned awhile ago about how upset I was over the endings of Scorpion and The Crossing. I do have to wonder if at least Scorpion could have more proper closer since it is part of the NCIS franchise. This makes me wonder if it could crossover with MacGyver since it is also part of the NCIS franchise. As for what could work for replacing things like a time travel show like The Crossing and a show named after an animal, here’s a link to a video about a time travelling animal.

Movie update: On Saturday, I watched Shrek 2 and replaced it with Titanic. On Sunday, I saw Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and replaced it with Raiders of the Lost Ark. That’s not much to tell you about, but that is enough of an update for now.

The first segment has both Sherlock and Watson trimming the nails of a turtle while listening to Enya’s Only Time (or possibly a cover of that song). This show is so weird! Watson’s mother with Alzheimer’s is missing. We then get to Tommy and Marcus talking to a suspect of some sort. This suspect was having an affair with a married woman named Alexis. She was killed by him, it seems. Marcus then sees a bag that is randomly out and starts smoking for some reason. He quickly puts it in a room and he thus thinks that there has been a biological attack.

The second segment has Tommy explaining what is going on as the place goes on lockdown. The place is now in quarantine. Marcus chooses to stay in a room by himself. It showed up over a short amount of time and the person who did it might still be there. Watson’s mother shows up at the house. She had done this lunch four years ago and had forgotten about it, apparently. Sherlock calls the police place and learns of the situation with them. Sherlock wants to talk to a cartel. Tommy forbids it, but I don’t think that Sherlock will listen. When does he ever do what he's told?

Tommy talks to a person who came about the situation there. A similar attack had happened in Mexico and could have links to this one. Sherlock then goes to a club that seems shady. You can tell by the rap music that is playing there. It’s such an overused cliché. Sherlock claims that his car was stolen, but I do not understand how he could have done it so quickly or known what he was doing. I guess that it does not really matter as he’s really smart like that. Marcus is now allowed to be with the other people. One of the people who was sitting next to the bag that went off got a reaction of some sort.

The third segment has Sherlock talking more to a person who had worked at the cartel who had done the previous attack. Sherlock has info that they could use to take out an adversary of them. They aren’t behind the current attack and Sherlock tells Tommy that. They don’t know what Marcus might be sick with. They have to talk to everyone who’s there. I hope that they are smart enough to talk to all of the cops and not just the civilians. Others might be showing signs of the virus or whatever the issue is that is affecting them or that nervous about what had happened.

Marcus thinks that someone who was working with the freight elevator might be the person who got in or knew how to get in through the roof. Watson’s mother is back at her home, but then winds up locking herself in her bedroom. The CDC lady shows up and talks more about the device. It came in pieces and neither of them know what might be going on. Sherlock does a test and thinks that he knows when the date was that it could have happened, July 2^nd. They learn that a cop did this. Didn’t I mention that I hope that they think it’s a cop in the last paragraph?

The fourth segment has a Shawn being brought up as a possible suspect. Shawn is a cop. He might have done the attack because of issues he had with the department. Sherlock has some strange type of food at his house. More information leads to Watson checking a database, only she can’t get in. There was a shooting in 2012 or 2010 that might be causing problems. Tommy then checks on something and learns some important information as the server of his department is missing. All of their data is missing. It is worth tons of money and could be a heist that is happening.

The fifth segment has Tommy explaining that he thinks someone from the CDC might be responsible. But it could be someone who was able to fake the credentials of a CDC agent. Shawn was responsible and so were two of the random civilians that were interviewed in the montage earlier. The repo man is someone that they know and worked with for the case due to shared money issues of theirs. Watson’s mother shows up on time to her house claiming that she has more good days than bad. She wants to hire a professional nurse to help her with her issues.

On the next Elementary, all of the pictures are upside down and there is a cult killer of some sort who seems to be doing weird things as usual. I do hope that Michael shows up again at some point because it would seem dumb to introduce him as a threat and then not follow through on it. I don’t know if this is a cult show or not. It has less viewers than it should have, yet still gets renewed for now. We’ll see just how much longer it will stay on the air. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.

July 30th 2018’s Episode

Starting in the August update of my CSI: Cyber blog, I will be including John Nobel from this show in it. I do not yet know for sure if I will put any reviews of his movie in this blog or not. I might. If I wind up only being able to see it on DVD, then I will definitely put it as a review of this blog. Know that as long as I’m able to do a post of this on a Thursday, then there will be the potential for special updates of this blog when it is on hiatus. I won’t go out of my way to review movies that he does like I did with the movie True to the Game, but I will include them here if I can or at least there.

Know that you will not see any updates of this blog during Advent and Lent as I put my Survivor blog on Thursdays then. If this show returns, then keep in mind that the updates will probably be on Thursdays, but it may be some other time. Just be sure to read my CSI: Cyber blog while this is on hiatus and it will keep track of any updates.

Movie update: On Saturday, I watched Shrek and will replace that with Shrek 2. On Sunday, I watched Celtic Woman: Believe and replaced it with Celtic Woman’s original concert: Live at the Helix. I should also note that Fridays and Tuesdays will probably have movie watching in the future, but they won’t have it yet. I’ll make notes when they do.

The first act has reminders of Watson wanting to be a parent via adoption. Will Sherlock co-parent? He is then investigating a case and has a dollhouse and bear trap. The apartment is not baby proof. As long as Sherlock is in it, then it makes sense. We then go to a crime scene and Sherlock notices a drink of some sort there. It looks to be the murder weapon. Leroy, the dead person, seemed to like to blackmail people and did that a lot. But Sherlock thinks that things are more complicated and he seems to be a contract killer who kept records as an insurance policy.

The second act has files brought up and some important device is there. Interviewee #1 then tells the pair of Watson and Tommy about the investigation she was doing in Leroy. I hope that I have his name right, but I hate referring to people by their last name as I find it disrespectful. Leland is his name. He is not Leroy. Marcus tells interviewee #2 about his death and she, as usual, didn’t know about the dead person’s double life that for some reason the dead person tends to always have.

Watson then calls someone at the adoption agency over the phone and there are problems with her trying to do it. Interviewee #3 did not seem to do it and thinks that he wins negotiation by speaking last. There is then a murder from four years ago that need to be solved.

The third act has Watson talking to Gary, an adoption official, about her problems with the places that were his mistakes. Sherlock thinks that orphan illnesses are the problem that the second dead person seemed to focus on and profit from. Medina is his name, I think. Sherlock in his usual Sherlock ways learns of the problems that Watson had with the adoption agency and Watson didn’t want him to end up co-parenting or changing his life too much. Why do Sherlock and Watson live together? There is a person at a restaurant who might be a suspect, but winds up being a person who was framed.

The fourth act has Marcus going back to interviewee #2 and talking to her. She was misleading people for some reason. Leland had made a device from earlier to mislead people. Sherlock then notices a boy in a bed that is the reason why some things were happening. Sherlock thinks that he can figure out the case. Sherlock helps Watson by introducing her to a king of sorts. Adult adoption is the problem that is then brought up. Gary, the person who screwed Watson over, is responsible for this king’s son adopting people and making them princes and princesses to marry other princes and princesses. Medina, who might not be dead or still could be, might be the target of another hit based on Watson.

The fifth act has the not actually dead Medina showing up to the prescient. He didn’t kill Leland or set up a hit. But he did kill Peter, the actual dead person from four years ago. Why am I so bad with names? But they did find by hiring a hit man somehow who was responsible for Leland’s death. Watson then talks to Gary about the illegal adoptions and the options that he has. Watson and Sherlock then talk some more together while Bohemian feasts are brought up. Sherlock would want to raise a child that Watson would have since he doesn’t want to risk dissolving the partnership.

On the next Elementary, it seems that there is an issue with a bag that causes a medical issue that could be the end of Marcus. I wouldn’t think that it would be. I still have no idea when or if Michael is coming back to the show. It would seem odd if he doesn’t. It looks like a better episode than usual is coming up next week so hopefully it is good. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
