A sailorman stumped into our parlour, harpoon in hand. “I need you to help me find the Great White.”

“Splendid disguise, Holmes!” I said. “A pitch-perfect American accent. The false peg-leg’s a nice touch.”

“What was that, Watson?” came Holmes’ voice from his room.

I turned back and smiled sheepishly at our furious client. “Please stop pointing that at me.”

Probably explains why the Pequod's journey was a disaster though.

If you don't hire the right people, you're not going to get good results.

Oh call me Ishmael! Then towards the end, it'll be the fishsticks guy.

Everyone dies but the fish and Ish.

Must admit I've never read Moby-Dick ^^"

A very neat and amusing crossover ^___^ Let's hope the harpoon didn't go off ^__^

I finally read it once I was safely out of college and didn't have to write a paper on its Essential Themes.

"Captain, do refrain from skewering my Boswell."

Ahab looks up into Holmes' eyes, and realises that his own insane, obsessive hunt for Moby-Dick would look like a game of hide-and-seek next to the vendetta Holmes would wage if he hurt Watson. Down goes the harpoon.

"Thank you. Tea?"

(Read it in high school and I remember almost none of it.)

Phew! Now that Watson is safe they can get down to business of... finding the whale?

Once the 221b firm realises that this is an obsessed madman raging against all of Nature, they let him know there's an excellent harpooneer in Vienna, Austria named Freud with whom he might want to speak...
