From mrspencil: Revenge
"MRS. HUDSON! Watson, have you seen..."
"Not since this morning, Holmes. And it isn't a bit of good shouting the place down – she's gone to visit her sister, we're on our own for the week."
"What! You mean she's up and left me like this?"
"Like what? You're making absolutely no... Holmes, what have you done to your arms? You're holding them out like a scarecrow."
"What have I done? What has that confounded woman done, I hope you mean! Just look at my shirt!"
"Good heavens..."
"You see? She starched the whole shirt, not just the cuffs and collars! And it isn't just this one, it's all of them!"
"Well, you'll simply have to wash them all again, won't you?"
"...wash them?!"
"Yes, with soap and water. You'll find them in the scullery, along with clothes pegs and an iron. That'll teach you to leave bullet holes in the wall."
