The Games Underfoot

Elementary 4×5

& Holmes: Stabbed in the chest and incinerated. Did the killer also throw him off a roof?

& Watson: I don’t get it. Eddie’s big find was garbage?
    Holmes: You’re familiar with garbology? It’s the study of rubbish. Archaeologists employ it to learn more about different cultures. The idea being that we are what we throw away, as were the ancient Romans or the first American settlers.

& Holmes: One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. Put the word «vintage» in front of glass bottles, cameras, trading cards— you can turn a tidy profit.

& Watson: I remember this. It was made by a company called EmeryVision. My brother and I had one of their consoles when we were kids.
    Gamer: Everyone did. Without EmeryVision, you wouldn’t have PlayStation or an Xbox or a Wii.
    Holmes: Then how would humanity idle away its time— solving world hunger, curing cancer...
    Det. Bell: «Nottingham Knights: The worst game ever.»
    Gamer: A-a-allegedly.

& Alfredo: Try one.
    Holmes: I did. Two years, three months, 27 days ago, when you first brought a box to a meeting. You do realize pink coconuts do not occur in nature...

& Watson: I’m trying to help!
    Holmes: .... Your help has just resulted in that man’s murder. Again.
    Watson: Okay, first of all, he wasn’t murdered— he was zapped into another dimension. And second of all, he still has two lives left.

& Holmes: According to my research, Swords of Saturn was one of the best games of the era...

& Watson: What are you doing?
    Holmes: I’m punishing my brain.
