* When Mary was seeing to a very injured Watson, she asked the doctor how Watson was doing. The doctor excused himself, and she asked him if that was the best he could do. Mary figured out that the doctor was Holmes. Without verbally acknowledging his true identity, she comforted him and told him that Watson had gone into this willingly and saw it as an adventure, and she encouraged him to try to fix this situation. Knowing Holmes, he would know that she knew who he was, making it an important moment of understanding between the two of them.
