Kitty "It is."
Sherlock "I was less certain so I returned to the business at hand. I thought that if Watson and I could bring Gruner to justice before you acted, you would be spared the decision that you have to make regarding his life. If on the other hand we could not undo Gruner..."
Kitty "So why are you here now?"
Sherlock "When I returned to London last year, I had certain expectations. Exactly none of them were met. Our crossing paths changed things for me. You...um, you saved me. I'd like to return the favor."

The nanny may believe that the wind blew open the nursery windows. That isn't possible. They have latches on them. Human hands had to open them. Jealous hands. It never occurred to me that a mother would do this to another mother's child.
Don't you want to beg for your life?"
Diane "You're a hypocrite. How many mother's children have you killed?"
Catherine "Oh, indignation instead of groveling? I suppose that'll do. This is for killing my babies. This is for taking my husband. Tearing my family apart. And this is for turning my daughter against me."
