Where on earth did a junkie of his caliber get all of the mental and physical energy to carry all of that out?? Perhaps if they had given us some real background, wrote it like he had some weird obsession with Sherlock in a more tangible way, and/or had him breakdown about his sister positing that as the fuel that enabled him to get all of these plans together. I still don't know if I would have found it terribly plausible. Still.
Exactly my point, starswan. Honestly I find the writing on this show to be so unbelievably lazy. It drives me crazy! The only good thing about the end of the episode is that we finally get to meet Sherlock's father. Who the writers have teased us with for three seasons, it's about bloody time!
