She was smart, she was, but no one's smarter than Sherlock.

A passcode he was never told, Vatican cameos, and a booby trap – he figured it all out.

Then he feels something poke into his arm and the world's gone blurry and he can't focus, but he knows one thing – he has the phone, and he can't lose the phone.

The riding crop – smack, smack, smack, and he drops it, and feels the drugs weigh down his limbs, but he fights.

Sherlock Holmes doesn't lose.

He wakes up in a bed, barely able to stand, and he's lost the phone.
