Translation
- Holmes: You know, Watson, this case turned out to be much more interesting than we thought at first. It all started, as always, unexpectedly, with a letter from the DFMS [1].
Watson looks uncomprehendingly.
- Holmes : Watson, this is the migration service. So. Well, I understood from it that here more than 200 people are registered at 221B, Baker Street. And they're all as one Holmeses.
- Watson : But how, Holmes?
- Holmes : Yes, I asked myself with the same question too. Why and most importantly who needed so many Holmeses. If you don’t take into account Mrs. Hudson, who receives money for one apartment from all 200 lodgers.
- Mrs Hudson : Mr Holmes!
- Holmes : Deeply respected Mrs. Hudson, I excluded this version immediately. So, the motive. Here I had to resort to my famous deductive method. The American Holmes. Everything is elementary here, Watson. Americans have long ago been looking for a superhero to a) he successfully will eliminate the criminality and b) he not to wear not to wear these idiotic panties over their pants. Ha-ha-ha! And now, Watson, this is the next Holmes. Holmes of the 21st century, this is a youth version. When I go out, that I load my gun, and he charges his iPhone.
- Mrs Hudson : Holmes!
- Holmes : Forgive me, Mrs Hudson! Watson, how do you think, what do you are doing in this version?
Watson made shrugging.
- Holmes : According to this version, you are writing about me not in a diary, but on the Internet!
- Mrs Hudson : Mr Holmes, I asked you not to use such expressions in my house.
- Holmes : Excuse me, Mrs. Hudson! And this is, Watson, Holmes from the channel "Russia". For 34 years I had no competitors in this country. Next year it will be 35. And this is already a jubilee [an anniversary], Watson! Ha-ha-ha-ha!
- Watson : Holmes, you are a genius!
- Holmes : Watson, I always told you about that! You know, Watson, it's good that this Holmes was broadcast on the TV channel “Russia”, if it had filmed by "NTV" [2], I can tell you...
- Mrs. Hudson interrupts : Mr Holmes, this is gone beyond all limits!
- Holmes : I think that if this Holmes had been filmed on “NTV”, we would have gotten rid of Mrs Hudson in the first episode.
- Watson : And we would change her apartment on ourselves!
- Holmes : Bravo, Watson! You catch on quick! But this Holmes, absolutely all women like him. Pay attention. Nothing unusual. Watson, for me personally enough in order to the only one woman to call me the best Holmes of all times and peoples. Something tells me that the Queen of Great Britain can be trusted on this matter.
Holmes and Watson drink and sit in armchairs. Watson sighs well-satisfied.
