| 1 | * Moriarty has adapted like a pro to the 22nd century by the time ''Holmes'' hits the scene. |
| 2 | ** And then Holmes proves himself to be even more awesome by adapting ''in less than a month'' to stop Moriarty on the Moon. |
| 3 | * Wiggins, a mere street kid, manages to impress ''Holmes'' in their first meeting by demonstrating enough astute awareness and historical knowledge to peg Holmes as a FishOutOfTemporalWater, simply by picking apart his choice of clothing and language from a single sentence. |
| 4 | * Watson gets something of a BigDamnHeroes moment in [=HOUN2=] when he comes riding in on the [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent "hound"]], just in-time for the thing to jump into Moriarty's getaway ship. |
| 5 | * A [[ChildProdigy little girl]] has New Scotland Yard running in circles and even "deceives the Master of Deceit," as Holmes so poetically puts it. |
| 6 | * In "The Resident Patient" Moriarty's test of a way to disguise his men not only fools Scotland Yard, but even throws ''Holmes'' off the trail for a moment. |
| 7 | * In [=SUSS2=], Lestrade ''kicks Moriarty's ionizer out of his hand'', in something of a CallBack to his pulling a similar move on her in [=HOUN2=]. |
| 8 | * Moriarty and the Musgrave Sword. The man can alter ''matter'' with the thing! |
| 9 | * Holmes crashes a criminal's car into New Scotland Yard... just by bad driving! |
| 10 | * Moriarty and Holmes both use [[{{Mcguffin}} the Mazarin Chip]] to great effect, but Holmes's command for "Fireworks!" in the climax of the episode tops it all. Consider it a Crowning Episode of Awesome for them both. |
| 11 | ** A crowning moment for the writers as well, taking one of the most reviled Holmes's stories and making it ''awesome'' and [[Funny/SherlockHolmesInTheTwentySecondCentury hilarious.]] |
| 12 | * When it gets right down to hand-to-hand combat, Holmes ''mops the floor with the larger Moriarty''. [[MusclesAreMeaningless So much for that muscular build!]] |
| 13 | * Holmes is an 80s-something soul in a 25-year-old body. Clearly, a recipe for pure win. |
