Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century

lord bollinger! It's gone!

Gone?!

Stolen from my bedroom.

I can't believe you let this happen.

Lucas, advise all operatives.

Lucas: Global alert. We have a code red.

This is a global alert!

Watson!

Brought Sherlock Holmes back to life.

Back to life.

It's elementary, my dear Watson.

Sherlock Holmes is on the case.

Moriarty...Moriarty...

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Sherlock Holmes is on the case.

elementary, my dear Watson.

Holmes: Hmm. There's one crisis we'll never hear about,

even if we wanted to.

Crisis? What crisis?

Observe the building just ahead.

That's the headquarters of global intelligence, is it not?

Holmes: Most mornings only a few top floor offices have lights on.

Now they all do. An unusual break in a pattern.

Our nation's secret agents are obviously working overtime.

I wonder why.

Holmes: A fruitless question, Watson.

Global intelligence keeps its mysteries to itself.

They have too much at stake to do otherwise.

Look out ahead!

Robot: Mr. Sherlock Holmes.

Land your vehicle immediately.

There are no markings on that craft.

Excellent observation, Watson.

Perhaps we would be wise to take evasive action.

Robot: Do not attempt escape.

Watson: Our power is off.

And we can't contact the guard.

They're blocking our emergency transmitters.

Hang on!

Robot: Our orders will be obeyed.

Are you kidding?

I Don't even take orders from new Scotland yard.

Identify yourself.

Robot: Identification is not permitted.

Seize him.

Allow me.

I'm familiar with the type.

Robot: Resistance will not be tolerated.

Attention, mr. Holmes.

I have the authority to permanently erase

your associate's memory banks

unless you cooperate.

Well, since you put it that way.

Dr. Watson and I will accompany you...

For the moment.

My name is lord bollinger, mr. Holmes.

I am--

ah, yes. England's director of global intelligence.

Uh, yes. And these are my top assistants.

Mark Trenton and Edward Lucas.

And which of you was responsible

for kidnapping Watson and myself?

My apologies. I ordered you brought to me

with utmost secrecy and urgency, no matter what it took.

We find it necessary to program our security droids for results,

not diplomacy.

We need your help desperately.

You are the one man who can save us.

An impossible robbery has occurred.

One should never confuse the unforeseen with the impossible.

What was stolen?

That we cannot reveal.

In that case, gentlemen, I bid you good-day.

Come, Watson.

Trenton: Wait, please.

Respectfully, sir, we cannot expect Holmes to solve this crime

without knowing what was taken.

I suppose not.

But, mr. Holmes, we will require your absolute secrecy.

You cannot even inform your colleagues at new Scotland yard.

You have my word.

The holo-disc containing our new master security code is missing.

And just why was that impossible?

Trenton: The only way the case can be unlocked

is by using this microchip memory board.

Only one of which exists.

And then only by keying in a numerical sequence known only to me.

Hmm. This window is locked from the inside.

Was that done after the robbery?

No, that's how I found it.

Watson, check outside.

Our thief could have operated the lock by remote control.

Consider it done.

Exactly who was in the house during the brief time

your courier case was unattended?

Just my wife and our 2 servants.

I will need to see them.

How many people knew the master code was in this case?

Only myself and Trenton.

And only lord bollinger knew I was leaving tomorrow

to deliver the code to--

that's quite enough, Trenton.

Suffice it to say, the location is top secret.

Or so it was intended to be.

Perhaps that is where we begin.

Lord bollinger, it would be most helpful

if you could find out if anyone in your office

learned about this trip.

I'll get on to it immediately.

Lucas, take me back to headquarters.

You'll continue here, mr. Holmes?

Indeed. Please keep me informed of any further developments.

I would ask the same of you, mr. Holmes.

Trenton, a word, please.

Bollinger: I Don't have to tell you how bad this looks, Trenton.

No, sir. But please, you must believe me.

I had nothing to do with this.

I have no idea how this happened.

That's hardly a fact to be proud of.

Of course not, sir.

I will do everything in my power to assist Holmes, sir.

We will find the code.

Let's hope, for your sake, that he does.

Before it's too late.

I'm finished. My career is over.

Take it easy.

We're going to get to the bottom of this,

and when we do, it will clear your name.

He'll listen then.

You're right. Thanks, Lucas.

I'll see what I can find out at headquarters.

Do what you can here.

Hmm. This mirror was moved recently.

The paint is slightly darker where it was placed before.

Mr. Sherlock Holmes?

Yes.

My husband is a great admirer of yours.

He has a file on you. I saw your photo.

And I have been examining your photo, mrs. Trenton.

Please, before mark returns, I must know...

Something was stolen from mark's case, wasn't it? What?

Please tell me.

I'm afraid I cannot.

Please, I know it must be very serious.

You're here and lord bollinger and Edward.

I must know if mark's in danger.

Will he be leaving for the middle east tomorrow?

How did you know his destination?

Edward told me just before you arrived.

Does mr. Lucas often share such information with you?

Of course not.

He's as concerned about my husband's future as I am.

Edward's been a friend for years.

Which explains his presence in this photograph.

Trenton: Heather?

I've been looking for you all over the house.

I was here, begging mr. Holmes to tell me what's going on.

He won't do it, mark. So you must, please.

I can't, darling.

You know that.

I'll be fine. Don't worry.

Did you bring your servants, mr. Trenton?

I'm sorry, mr. Holmes.

I couldn't find them.

Neither one is in the house.

I didn't want them overhearing anything they shouldn't,

so I programmed them to tend the garden.

I'll get them, mr. Holmes.

No need. I was about to go outside

to confer with dr. Watson.

Watson: I scanned every inch of the outside wall,

the roof, and the surrounding grounds.

No one gained entry to that bedroom from out here.

Could you download the memory circuits

of our 2 hedge trimmers

and determine their whereabouts during the robbery?

Certainly. And where will you be?

Taking a taxi to the apartment of mr. Edward Lucas.

Lucas? Why?

Because the man revealed a secret he is not supposed to know.

Driver: There's the address, governor.

Finally found it.

Obviously your first day on the job.

Blimey, you could be a detective.

Disabling procedure now in progress.

Watson: No! Override program.

Servant--

hmm. I'm not mr. Lucas' first visitor today.

Watson, I need your assistance.

Prepare for disposal.

Watson! Watson--wait!

Tranquilizer gas?

Watson, where are you?

no time for a nap.

First, interrupt the input.

Second, ventilate.

Watson, this is urgent. Respond immediately.
