random things from the episode-

Sherlock 'encouraging' Joan to take self-defense classes by using his own methods.

Sherlock tells Joan 'If ever anything happened to you, I'm not sure I could forgive myself' and I had a bit of a squee.

We now know what Bell looks like under his suit.

I had a horrible thought that Bell's brother killed the drug dealer, but once the evidence pointed to it being a frame job, that went out the window.

Sherlock doesn't think that Bell is stupid, which has to be one of the highest compliments he can give anyone.

Sherlock protected Bell by moving evidence and then lying about where it was found.

Gregson and Sherlock seem to be... I don't know, off? Like they are tolerating one another, but their relationship is frayed around the edges and not what it was.

Sherlock knew Joan had lied. He wants her to stay, but only if she wants to. Joan set her own terms on the arrangement.

Joan caught Sherlock in the face with a basketball (I wonder if that is the same ball he threw at the basketball court). Sherlock's grin afterwards was wonderful.

"Gregson and Sherlock seem to be... I don't know, off? Like they are tolerating one another, but their relationship is frayed around the edges and not what it was."

Yes and no -- I know what you mean - they're just not quite on the same talking level they were on before. But, when SH was talking to Bell after he 'lied' to Gregson about where the gun was found, he mentioned 'respect' several times in the same sentence and I think that's the key. SH respects Gregson, very much (almost like a father figure and perhaps in replacement of his own not very nice father), and despite what happened in M, Gregson does still respect SH.

And yes, JLM's grin after Joan hit him with the basketball was priceless - very cute!
