And frankly, its not like working as a police officer has made Bell a rich man and now his livelyhood is possibly being taken away. He has the right to be angry - but I suspect he's more angry at himself.
I still think Sherlock is being set up for a relapse.
Yes, Bell definitely has cause and right to be angry. I'm not defending Sherlock. I can see where he's coming from, but he's still in the wrong, because he's clinging to his idea of himself as 'above'...nearly everything, really.
Now, naturally Bell will recover (just due to the nature of the show), but it would be interesting to see what might happen if he didn't - how that relationship would change, especially to keep him close enough to be a regular. Might Sherlock and Watson allow him to work with them? Outside of the establishment? And how would that go down, exactly?
It's an interesting meandering thought, that is sure to never happen, LOL!
