ABSTRACT

The cab comes to a stop and SHERLOCK HOLMES rushes rapidly out the open door.

EXT. 221B BAKER STREET-NIGHT

Lightning illuminates the house number as we hear a door slam.

INT: WATSON’S BEDROOM-A FEW MOMENTS LATER

The room is in near-total darkness. There is an indistinct figure in a bed. Rapid steps

advance upon the stairs and a door bursts open. A figure with a candle stands in the

doorway for a moment, contemplating the scene.
