sherlock has a recurring dream about john’s cheating theory
@whatsortofcase just made a brilliant post about how John’s night texting could be Sherlock’s dream because that scene was repeated but it had difference. and it looks like that was on purpose, because they could use exactly the same sequence of frames and cut it in the first time, but show the full version later, but they chose to shoot the end of the scene again.
so on TST we’ve told that Sherlock is having a recurring dream. and that’s the thing he tells Ella (maybe in his Mind Palace), but anyway, Ella is John’s therapist, so the dream must be about John. I doubt it’s about Redbeard.
Repeating dreams. What do wee see on repeat in that episode? Sharks but they are abstraction, it’s not very much detailed to be a dream. Another things that repeat: John’s texting from the bed and John’s lil adventure on the bus.
I think some of us had that feeling while watching the episode, that these two scenes were kinda looped.
Now, I watched the scenes in two different windows and there’s one important thing
The first time we see that scene, the man in the coat hold a paper. It says “BE IN TWO PLACES AT ONCE”. It is definitely a reference to Sherlock’s case
So that Easter egg was there for us to see and the crew must have checked carefully about the newspaper’s position. But look here:
This is the second time we see that scene and the man hold his paper from another side. Why would they reshoot two identical scenes with a different detail?
Both scenes John’s getting messages without a signature and the messages on the bus are from Sherlock, so it could be possible that Sherlock’s dream contains him texting John that he misses him.
What about John’s thinking about that lady on a plane? Well. i’ll tell you what.
Look at the Sherlock. He is sleeping. They show it to us right before the frame with that creepy airplane window.
Also, I have no idea why Sian Brooke is portraying two different characters on the show, but we know that LiR is going to hang out with Sherlock, there is a chance he knows her already and that is why he sees her in a dream but with a different appearance. Or some another connection of that sort.
That all explains massive OOC some of us felt during that episode.
And that is something Mofftiss would totally do.
