[Location Card: Minsk, Belarus]

[Scene: Sherlock is sitting at a table in a large room full of small tables and folding chairs with a guy in an orange prison jumpsuit.]

Sherlock: Just tell me what happened from the beginning.

Perp: We went to a bar, nice place and uh... I got chattin' with one of the waitresses, and Karen weren't happy with that so, we get back to the hotel and end up havin' a bit of a ding dong, don't we?

Sherlock: *sighs*

Perp: She's always gettin' at me. Sayin' I weren't a real man-

Sherlock: 'Wasn't a real man'.

Perp: What?

Sherlock: It's not 'weren't' it's 'wasn't.

Perp: *blank* Oh.

Sherlock: Go on.

Perp: *mildly confused* Well, um... Then I dunno how it happened, but suddenly there's a knife, in my hands. And y'know me old man was a butcher so I know how to handle knives. He learned us how to cut up a beast-

Sherlock: 'Taught'.

Perp: *aggravated* What?

Sherlock: 'Taught you how to cut up a beast'.

Perp: *flustered* Yeah, well, then I done it-

Sherlock: 'Did it'.

Perp: Did it! *hits table, angry* Stabbed her! Over and over and over and I looked down and she weren't-

Sherlock: *turns head and sighs in disdain*

Perp: ...wasn't moving no more.

Sherlock: *pointedly looking around the room*

Perp: Any more. God help me, I dunno how it happened but it was an accident I swear.

Sherlock: *pushes away from the table, chair scrapes, starts walking away*

Perp: Hey! You've gotta help me, Mr. Holmes!

Sherlock: *stops*

Perp: Everyone says you're the best. Without you... I'll get hung for this.

Sherlock: *turning back* No no no, Mr. Berwick,** not at all. 'Hanged', yes. *smirks and walks away*

** - (Can't quite make the name out, blog says Perp's name is Barry Berwick? Maybe it's oddly pronounced? Pronounced "Berrick", thank you wastingyourgum!)
