A STUDY IN PINK SHOOTING SCRIPT - GREEN AMENDED 18/04/10
SHERLOCK (cont'd)
The man in front of me wouldn’t treat his one luxury item like this, so there’s been a previous owner. Next bit’s easy - you know it already. JOHN (V.O.) The engraving. Whoosh! Super-fast, Sherlock flips the phone over -- Whoosh! Closer on the engraving. Harry Watson From Clara xxx SHERLOCK (V.O.)
Harry Watson - clearly a family member who’s given you his old phone. Not your father - this is a young man’s gadget. Could be a cousin, but you’re a war hero who can’t find a place to live - unlikely you’ve got an extended family, certainly not one you’re close to. So - brother it is.
In the cab: Sherlock has John’s phone in his hand now ... Flashback: super closer on engraving. We whoosh down to -- From Clara XXX SHERLOCK (V.O.) Now Clara, who’s Clara - three kisses says it’s a romantic
attachment, the expense of the phone says wife not girlfriend.
In the cab:
SHERLOCK She must have given it to him recently, this model’s only six months old. It’s a marriage in trouble then - six months on he’s just given it away. If she’d left him, he’d probably have kept the phone - people do, sentiment - but no, he wanted rid of it: he left her . He gave the phone to you - that says he wants you to stay in touch.
