The Pusher

By Montykins

Holmes and Watson work two different cases this week. Watson's assigned to investigate a missing woman, because her sister is convinced that her husband killed her. Holmes isn't interested, because the whole thing sounds kind of sketchy. And also because it's a case set up by his father, who he hates. So it's Watson's problem. The missing woman recorded a video where she said she was leaving, but it might have been faked somehow.

While she works on that, Holmes investigates a weird case from six months earlier, where a mysterious hooded figure gave a woman some flowers and then pushed her in front of a subway train. He learned about it because the missing woman mentioned it in her video, and then he found it much more interesting. Along the way, he runs across Prez and Bubbles from The Wire. But his only new clue is a distinctive patch on the subway pusher's jacket.

Watson breaks both cases wide open when she discovers that the bad guy in Holmes's case is the husband in her case. That video included the missing woman saying she was freaked out by a flower woman being killed in a subway, but she was talking about a different time she left her husband for a few days. The husband diabolically saved the video and then created a new situation later to provide cover for her disappearance. It's pretty complicated.

While all this is going on, Watson is starting to doubt herself. This is because her friends think she's crazy to stop being a sober companion and start being a consulting detective. On the other hand, Alfredo the Charismatic Car Thief is back and he thinks she's got potential. So that's neat!
