** The horror in Mary’s face and words speak volumes about how much she loves John. She clearly knows everything that he has suffered and she’s so warm and understanding when he has difficulty expressing his feelings or controlling his temper, problems he already had because of his PTSD Her cry of "Oh my God! Do you have ''any'' idea what you’ve done?!" is just one indication that John was so shattered after Sherlock "died" that maybe this deception and reappearance will rip open John's wounds after all the healing he did while he was with Mary.

*** The one little typo on the lowercase "i" really twists the knife when you consider how pedantic Sherlock is about grammar- he's so desperate for human company he's just churning out comments without even bothering to proofread. He might have even been drinking a little... or a lot. Mrs Hudson responds, asking if he'd like to play Cluedo (and she makes a typo as well- read into that what you will) and he's so lonely he accepts. The little "i" also hurts on a symbolic level- he feels like he's less significant as a person without John's company.

* John is very concerned for Sherlock when he learns that Irene Adler is secretly still alive. The anger and hurt in his voice when he confronts her is heartbreaking, and shows how protective he is of his friend.
