Dr. Watson

You resisted when Sir Roderick told us that your entire story was a lie.

Oh, what reason have you for saying that, Duncan?

Please describe the circumstances.

I couldn't pay you much, but... Now, my dear Jenkins, I assure you that Mr. Holmes is as interested in preventing the murder of a servant as he is in saving the life of a prime minister.

Sir Roderick Martin.

Oh, come, come, come, my dear man.

You're surely mistaken.

What reason do you have for suspecting him?

Complicated situation, eh, Holmes?

Well, as a doctor myself, I say that's more than likely.

I must say his actions tonight hardly seem the behavior of a sane man.

Why, George, now that you mention it, I do remember hearing some gossip in Harley Street about Stanley's sister killing herself.

But nobody seemed to know the motive.

Well, really, Mrs. Stanley, my friend only wishes to... No, gentlemen.

Yes, indeed, sir.

Rather depressing, if you remember me saying so.

Jenkins, eh?

Enteric sometimes leaves bad after-effects.

Would you say, Doctor, that Jenkins has suffered no lasting damage?

Hallucinations, for instance?
