"M'dear, I am off to Baker Street."

"So early?"

"My patient was victim to a murderous attack."

"How terrible! But surely that is a police matter."

"The circumstances are rather singular. I think Holmes will find it quite fascinating."

"As you do."

"Well, I...."

"Never mind. Go, if you must."

"Shall I give your regards to Holmes?"

"If you must."

The one person who has to be more patient and tolerant than Watson is. It's great to have a Watson in your life, but only if you're his Holmes.... Very nice!
