to the adventure of the Gloria

0:41

Scott. I hope

0:43

you like this one. I've had Gloria by Laura

0:46

Branigan in my head all week. It

0:49

doesn't feature. Yeah, just

0:51

the word Gloria made me get that song

0:53

in my head. Go

0:55

listen to it. Belter, as

0:57

they say. Jesus Christ, John, get to the point. This

0:59

episode contains the F word. So

1:01

watch out, batten down the hatches,

1:03

brace yourselves. It

1:06

also contains a bloke who is

1:09

a complete arsehole. And

1:11

that's not me or Sherlock. There's a guy in

1:13

this that... Yeah, you'll

1:16

see. He's awful, awful man. I've

1:20

also really gone to town with the music. It's

1:23

angsty stuff, people. So I've tracked

1:25

down the songs that we're playing in the places

1:27

we were and spent an enormous amount of time

1:29

in my room editing to make it sound right.

1:32

So yeah, just

1:34

enjoy it, please. Yeah.

2:03

Okay, so bread?

2:06

Yep, bread, check. Um, yeah,

2:08

no, not that one. What's wrong with

2:10

it? A lot. A

2:13

lot is wrong with it. Um,

2:15

get this loaf here. Okay.

2:19

And, um, oh,

2:22

I want to have some flowers in the office.

2:24

Yep, that's a good idea. That

2:26

warm, comforting presence for those in despair, or...

2:29

Yeah, ooh, what about this? A cactus? I

2:32

think flowers. Well, this might

2:34

flower, eventually. Orchid?

2:38

Eh, they always die. Um... Oh,

2:41

what about a fruit bowl for

2:44

clients? Yes, love it, love it.

2:46

Oh, sorry your husband's been murdered. Have

2:48

an apple. Cops is pippin'. Okay,

2:52

I'll... I'll need

2:54

another basket. Um, oh, John,

2:56

can you get some pasta and

2:58

the mascarpone sauces just for Sherlock's

3:00

dinner? Roger that.

3:02

Penny only. Yep, God forbid he try

3:05

a different shape of pasta. Ah,

3:08

the glitz and glamour of a detective consultancy

3:10

home. Fusilli, tongue-a-telli,

3:12

half-ally, bucatini... Oh, bucatini. He used

3:15

to play for what, for didn't

3:17

he? Oh,

3:19

hold into the best ones. Penny, booyah!

3:22

Yes, two bags of those. Now some

3:24

boring pasta sauces. I

3:26

should explain to those, um, who care.

3:29

Sherlock is, yes, fascinating.

3:33

And yes, a man that enjoys the

3:35

many... God, that's a fortune, that one.

3:37

It's just blended tomatoes, for God's sake.

3:41

It enjoys the, um, many

3:43

different aspects of life. He's not a plain

3:45

James, or a plain James. He

3:48

does, however, go through spells of

3:50

a spectacularly boring diet, the bedrock

3:52

of which is, you guessed

3:54

it, tomato pasta. Who

3:56

are you talking to? Oh,

3:59

just the ghost of Sainsbury. Very funny. Say

4:01

hi to the listeners. Hola,

4:03

Queridos, hagentes. Perdona da John

4:06

Porces de naborido. I can guess what that was. No,

4:09

you can't. I can. Go

4:11

on then. Annoying. I'm being

4:13

annoying or something. Close.

4:15

Boring. Ding, ding, ding.

4:18

Bravo. Thank you. Speaking

4:20

of boring, Penne pasta for Sherlock Holmes.

4:22

Lovely. Oops. The Penne

4:24

has dropped. Oh,

4:27

thank you. Here you go. Thanks.

4:31

Sorry. Did I say Sherlock Holmes? I

4:33

did, yeah. Do you know him? I'm assuming it's

4:35

the same guy. The Penne

4:38

pasta is a dead giveaway as well. How'd you

4:40

know him? He

4:42

was an old school friend before he got himself chucked out

4:44

anyway. No way. Yeah. I'm

4:47

Victor. Victor Trevor. John Watson.

4:50

And this is Mariana

4:52

Amejezora. Hi. Good

4:54

pronunciation. Thanks. Has

4:56

he mentioned it at all? No,

4:59

I don't know actually. Maybe. Not

5:02

sure. He doesn't really talk about old friends

5:04

or anything like that, does he? No.

5:09

No, I don't think he's mentioned

5:12

anyone. Well, he didn't

5:14

have any. Apart from me, so

5:17

I just wondered. Well,

5:19

I can give you his

5:21

number and you can catch up. We

5:26

work with him. Well, we work and live with

5:28

him. And we haven't got much on for the

5:30

next couple of weeks. Botanist? Oh,

5:33

I just always thought he'd be a botanist. He

5:35

was into that a lot. Yeah. No,

5:39

he has a lot of keen

5:41

areas of interest, I suppose. Is he still,

5:43

does he still have

5:45

the criminal knowledge of call? Is

5:47

that a word? I don't know. That

5:50

and the deductions. Is

11:57

hyper focused around areas of crime, investigation, observation,

11:59

and. Come out and throw myself

12:01

into particular areas of study for that

12:04

shit, out of curiosity or to assist

12:06

those skills and I formed into the

12:08

system. I do it for principally myself

12:13

principal would know. Principles.

12:16

12:43

Stocky fellow, limited education and proud

12:45

of it. Eventually pulled through and

12:47

the engineering game Australian had seen

12:50

of our part of the world

12:52

fitted with a pacemaker, did plenty

12:54

of boxing and his time chef

12:56

less him. So.

12:59

Yeah my parents, I'm in Australia. Moved.

13:01

To London when I was around nine.

13:04

Or think Mia. Upbringing

13:06

Miss Sally when office space

13:09

or the Alberta. Is

13:11

of lengthy periods of just like. That

13:14

I really like. He's devastated.

13:17

On. Those homes. It. Weeks.

13:20

And weeks justice glum sick as

13:22

it with treasurer on the house.

13:25

He never worked months. He'd made

13:28

all his money back in Australia and he's just

13:30

kind of sucked the life of the places and

13:32

he got his old self back of an on

13:34

again. On his news

13:36

mentally unwell before my the new

13:38

that people could be and sumo

13:40

economic sense. Anyway, so

13:42

easily sixties now and he's got see

13:44

friends here in there that otherwise is

13:46

always been a bit of a loner.

13:50

I'm a bit in between jobs.

13:53

and boyfriends say you know that the

13:55

is a big family homes i i'm

13:57

staying there until i get think so

14:01

Anyway, to the issue. Three

14:04

weeks ago, exactly, this

14:06

guy, also Australian,

14:09

also in his sixties, turns

14:11

up at the house. Hunter.

14:14

Hunter? Yeah, yeah. You

14:17

know when someone has that, like, a

14:20

presence? A threatening presence.

14:23

They're not doing anything, but there's

14:25

just something coming off them. This

14:28

guy, Hunter, he

14:30

had that. It was just

14:33

a stench of confidence and

14:35

controlling, sort of like he

14:38

owned the place kind of energy, just spilling out of

14:40

him. I could feel

14:42

myself shrinking. The moment

14:45

I opened the door to him, as he was just asking,

14:47

is my dad in sort of thing? And

14:49

I, yeah, yeah, I

14:51

didn't even call out. My dad

14:53

just appeared behind the door. I just...

15:02

Sorry. It's okay, big day, it's all

15:04

right. You can take a break

15:06

for a minute or two if you want.

15:08

He must continue. Sherlock, he's crying. We can

15:10

take a break, right? No, we can't. Why

15:13

not? Because this matters. No, it doesn't. It

15:15

matters how we receive the story. I didn't

15:17

want it sterile and measured. Sorry.

15:20

Sorry. My

15:22

dad saw him and I just... The

15:26

expression on his face

15:28

was like someone had

15:30

just stuck a knife in his gut. Like

15:34

he was scared of him, threatened by

15:36

him. That, yeah. But

15:40

just like a tell a million thoughts were rattling

15:42

around inside of him. I mean, I'm his

15:45

son, so I'm obviously

15:47

over-analyzing all of this, just a

15:49

fraction of a second, but it hit me like a train to

15:52

see him like that. But right

15:54

away, he bounded over to Hunter and gave him

15:57

this big warm greeting and was Hugging

15:59

him. And I am. So

16:02

went through the kitchen area and

16:04

cracked open be is in it

16:06

seems. Awesome Chests Saw a friendly

16:09

in. Dot. Night

16:11

we had dinner with until. He

16:13

was. He was

16:15

kind of just traveling the world. Did

16:17

every family to speak holes that plenty

16:19

of you know. Tales.

16:23

And all sorts. Really so. What?

16:26

Brings us up to now why. Why's this situation to the

16:28

new to us? He's the

16:30

devil. Three

16:32

weeks. Three weeks

16:35

as this man in the

16:37

family home. My dad did

16:40

everything for him. Everything.

16:42

everything like was pseudonym,

16:44

16:46

17:12

17:15

He's always used to sum up whoever

17:17

no, not now watching this man clothes.

17:20

Right than. That. There.

17:22

Is a bit weird, weird, and extremely out

17:25

of character. My Dad right?

17:27

Sherlock. Your description of my

17:29

dad. Stocky boxers, trough a

17:31

lot of the. He's like

17:33

he's an alpha male and

17:35

ah suddenly Hunter rise in

17:37

his lock is butler. And

17:40

it's more nice. moist just

17:43

says difference. Is Not

17:45

like Southern Skies wants and needs

17:47

is fundamentally different in his behavior

17:49

up anyway. Yep!

17:51

Last. Night kind of artist to swim

17:54

fun or can hunt any not just.

17:56

basically told the going to do one

18:00

confronted him. You're just like, time's

18:02

up mate. When you're heading off

18:04

because my dad looks knackered. I'm

18:06

bored of you, you're eating all the food,

18:08

drinking all the drink. You're taking the piss

18:10

basically and we just need you out. And

18:13

what did Hunter say to that? He

18:16

just laughed. He laughed?

18:18

Yeah, and my dad just

18:21

stood there. Then

18:26

Hunter... Oh

18:29

god. He

18:34

grabbed a picture of my mum

18:37

that was on the mantelpiece and

18:39

he said there was

18:41

a time when your dad would let me have a lot

18:43

more than a few dinners and some drinks. But

18:47

then he started sort of stroking

18:51

the picture of her. Jesus.

18:54

He put it down, came

18:57

up right into my face and he basically

18:59

said, you're

19:01

lucky I'm not a... you

19:04

know, insert homophobic slur

19:06

here. Oh lovely. And he sort

19:08

of slapped my face half playfully,

19:11

half... yeah, bloody

19:13

painfully. And then

19:15

he went upstairs. Dad

19:18

wouldn't speak to me about it. I've got no

19:20

one to help me and there's no

19:22

siblings and dad doesn't

19:25

have any family. So yeah,

19:30

totally stuck. Really

19:34

totally stuck. And

19:37

how is your father? Sinking,

19:41

fading. He's... this

19:44

has affected him. Definitely,

19:46

yeah. What can we do?

19:50

Would you visit? Just to

19:52

try and decipher what exactly is going on. Absolutely.

19:56

And your father's home, it's in

19:58

Camden Town, correct? Yeah,

20:02

you still got it mate, honestly. How'd

20:04

you land at that one? Oh, no, I

20:06

mustn't. This is no time to show off. No,

20:09

go on. No, please. Stop. It

20:11

would be improper. Go on, do it. Yeah,

20:13

come on. Well, if you all insist. Suit

20:16

is musty. Unused since probably a funeral, but

20:18

worn today. Smart clothing is making you uncomfortable.

20:20

Some inflammation around that top button. You wore

20:23

it because you felt like you had to,

20:25

so it was a job interview. You came

20:27

from Camden. Your new Android update sorts apps

20:29

in terms of recent usage. One there called

20:31

LRCC, the logo of a coffee cup on it.

20:33

Just used this morning. You've had coffee. Most people do,

20:35

of course, but in this weather, I can see the

20:38

impression on your nose of the ventilation hole of the

20:40

takeaway coffee cup. I can see the slight browning of

20:42

your gums. I can smell it on your breath. Watson

20:44

here has mouthwash if I've made

20:46

you uncomfortable, Victor. Yeah, it's spearmint.

20:49

It's fine. Thank you, though.

20:51

LRCC. C probably stands for coffee or

20:53

cafe. A quick Google of LRCC reveals

20:55

living room cafe club in Camden. You

20:57

wouldn't have the app of an independent

20:59

cafe if you didn't live nearby. Yep.

He down and I took a bit. Have

25:04

you thought he met before, Sherlock? We have,

25:07

25:09

does the old, um, the

25:11

trick, the mind-reader. He's

25:14

not a mind-reader, dad. Yeah, far from it, a

25:16

lot of the time. I

25:18

25:20

Trevor. Well, you didn't observe me telling

25:23

you it's Lionel. Did you? Yes,

25:26

quite. Lionel, apologies.

25:30

Ah, Lionel, you, uh, you

25:32

told me, what was it? You

25:35

were able to tell where I'd been

25:38

travelling, that I used a box. And

25:41

the pacemaker. The

25:43

what? Pacemaker. Yep,

25:45

the old ticker. Yep. You

25:48

knew I worked in oil. Mm-hmm. Yeah,

25:51

25:53

scrawny little bugger reading me bloody palm or

25:55

something. Yeah, he hasn't

25:57

lost it. either.

26:00

Good times. Oh, you still do

26:02

it? I do. On occasion. Well,

26:06

that's great. He can do it on

26:08

you now, Dad. No, no. I

26:11

think I can hear Hunter, so

26:13

I'll just see if

26:15

he's okay. He's

26:18

very sweet, Victor. Yeah.

26:20

That Hunter playing the music upstairs? Sweet

26:24

tunes. Tuneage. Look

26:27

at me like that. People say that, okay? The

26:30

green orchid. Ah,

26:32

here we go. See, I told you

26:35

I thought he was going to be a botanist. What's

26:37

the green orchid? Dad's orchid over there. It isn't the

26:39

same one. Yeah, same one. It

26:42

can't be. Telling you, mate. He

26:44

loves that thing. Does he indeed? If

26:47

you want an orchid, I can buy

26:49

you an orchid, Sherlock. This one

26:51

is different. Yeah, well, put it down for the

26:53

old man's thieves, all right? Indeed. Right.

26:56

Watson. Get to work. So,

26:59

sorry what? The game plan. Go.

27:02

The game plan? Eh,

27:05

give us a clue, mate. Oh, did

27:07

I not discuss it with the group? Apparently not.

27:10

I thought I did a very grand speech where I took

27:12

you all through my plan of action and assigned various roles.

27:14

Uh, no,

27:17

no. My mistake. Right. Victor

27:19

here told us that Lionel and Hunter will

27:21

often spend time in the second floor lounge.

27:24

Right, yeah. So, you will go and plant

27:26

your microphone in there amongst the couch cushions

27:28

or... Put it on the bookshelf. On the

27:30

bookshelf. Leave it recording and we

27:33

can have a listen later to glean

27:35

what we can from this most peculiar

27:37

relationship. Right, uh, okay. Oh,

27:39

here. So, are we done? Eh, I

27:41

need to pee anyway. Well, don't record

27:43

yourself peeing. We actively searching for sponsors.

27:45

No, I will plant the microphone in the

27:47

room. Ah, right, right, okay. Upstairs,

27:49

lounge is the first right. Barthroom is at the end

27:51

of the corridor. And do them in that order, please,

27:54

27:56

beginning of this episode that says it contains a Spanish

27:58
