I guess we'll get the answers to all those question in the next episode, but it's definitely fun to speculate. *_____*
It could be that Joan's kidnapping forced his hand. He couldn't hide a thing like that from Sherlock, so he had to ask for his help to keep an eye on him while he investigated. If the bad guys had kidnapped anyone else he would have probably done everything alone.
I'm guessing there was also a reason why they needed the boss to leave the scene before revealing Mycroft's secret. He's probably going to lead them to someone else they're looking for, like another godfather or something, and they need him free to do that.
Again, it's just me speculating, I haven't even seen the promo for the next episode, I just love going crazy with theories. ^^

You may be onto something that he couldn't hide Joan's kidnapping from Sherlock! Anyway, I'm not trusting him anymore o_O
Speaking about the promo, could some nice person who watched the episode on air tell the rest of us what was in it? Pretty please?
I haven't seen it online but saw people talking about it on Tumblr.
