Really enjoyed the episode. Getting to learn why Joan works with adicts was awesome. And of course Liam didn't show up, but of course Joan even knowing he wouldn't had to wait 10 more minutes. Also enjoyed learning more about Bell. Loved sick!Sherlock he was too funny.

I was very impressed that they included backstory on Joan. It seemed far too simplistic that she botched a surgery and then decided to become a sober companion. That's not an easy dot to connect. Now it makes way more sense. I respect Joan so much in this episode. She was so strong even when Liam was pleading and promising that he was going to change.

I'm also so glad that they're giving Bell a lot of screen time. He's great with Sherlock; and FINALLY he got to one-up Sherlock with his expertise about the mah jong tiles!

ACK and Sherlock and Joan, I am so impressed by their friendship. It's developed so much in only nine episodes, so kudos to the writers and the actors for making it work! The tea runner throughout the episode was just too adorable.
