** Sherlock himself in. During his little rant to Watson, he was somewhere in between TranquilFury and just plain crazy.

* "M": M [[spoiler: aka Sebastian Moran]]. He ties his victims up, hangs them by their feet, then slashes their throats and lets them bleed to death. Sherlock states that M's youngest victim was ''[[WouldHurtAChild twelve]]''. It actually gets ''worse'' after the reveal that [[spoiler: Moran is a hitman. Moriarty is directing him to kill people whose deaths are somehow vital to one of Moriarty's criminal schemes, and simply making it look like the work of a serial killer in order to throw off suspicion.]]

** Holmes visits [[spoiler:Moran]] for help with a message he needs to decode from [[spoiler:Moriarty]]. [[spoiler:Moran]] claims he cannot translate. Sherlock translates it later:

* In "The Deductionist", the serial killer internet stalks blonde women over a certain height, and then ''skins'' them. Overlaps with ParanoiaFuel because people like that exist in RealLife.

** [[spoiler: Worry not. [[NoManOfWomanBorn No other man]] could deduce it.]]
*** [[spoiler: Why shouldn't we worry? As if men have a monopoly on murder.]]

* The DissonantSerenity of [[spoiler:Moran calmly singing the Arsenal FC anthem]] to himself in his cell before suddenly and violently bashing his face against the mirror.
** Not long before, Holmes visits [[spoiler:Moran]] for help with a message he needs to decode from [[spoiler:Moriarty]]. [[spoiler:Moran]] claims he cannot translate. Sherlock translates it later:
--> [[spoiler:Moriarty's message decoded: Moran you never told me you had a sister. [[SadisticChoice She dies or you do. Your choice]]. M]]
** Before that, [[spoiler:Moran's killing of the guard simply for overhearing bits of his conversation with Holmes]]. And with such carefree glee afterward!
* [[spoiler: Can you ever ''really'' be sure about which of your loved ones is genuine and which is a carefully constructed façade who may not be the world's greatest criminal mind in ''your'' case, but still wants nothing more than your utter devastation?]]

What kind of monstrous criminal scheme could require the deaths of children?]]
** [[spoiler: Perhaps that particular child was the heir to a fortune.]]

* M [[spoiler: aka Sebastian Moran]]. He ties his victims up, hangs them by their feet, then slashes their throats and lets them bleed to death. He's implied ''[[WouldHurtAChild to have killed children]]'' that way
** Implied nothing. Sherlock outright states that M's youngest victim was ''twelve''.

* The plan from "Red Team". Sufficiently plausible that the government classified it immediately; sufficiently terrifying that a member of the team was prepared to kill everyone else who knew what it was; deduced by Sherlock in a few moments. Of course, Sherlock would never reveal it... but what one smart man can figure out, another smart man can also figure out. The sort of smart man who might, say, casually employ an entire stable of SerialKillers to further his own ends...
