Sorry, forgot to post this last night. :)

Kathy left me the big bubble o' technobabble to fill in, though I was helped by a couple of the CTC regulars. 

Another bit that got left on the proverbial cutting room floor: Originally Mycroft was supposed to be played by Swampy, with a pillow stuffed up under his shirt. :)

Dialogue:

Mary Morstan, looking concerned: John--are you all right? You seem--different.

Watson, looking out window, back to her: Oh, I'm just distracted. It's this case of Holmes'. It has me on edge.

Mary: Howso?

Watson: Something doesn't seem right. Holmes isn't--

Holmes (entering): Excuse us, Miss Morstan, but Watson--I need you to accompany me to Brother Mycroft's club. I have a cab outside.


Narration: Shortly--

Holmes (putting finger to his lips) : Remember, Watson--not a word when we enter Mycroft's club!

Watson: Why is that, Holmes?

Holmes (looking in over double door at Mycroft shooting pool, and whispering): Because speaking distracts the shooter.


Narration: Soon, in the "Strangers' Gallery" of Mycroft's club--

Holmes: Mycroft, I need your advice. What do you know about atomic theory?

Mycroft: (large box of pseudo-scientific babble about atomic theory.)

Holmes: Sounds elementary.



Version 2:

Narration: Soon, in the "Strangers' Gallery" of Mycroft's club--

Holmes: Mycroft, I need your advice. What do you know about atomic theory?

Mycroft: ...Whut?

Holmes:(large box of pseudo-scientific babble about atomic theory.)

Mycroft: Sounds elementary.


(If we go with Version 2, we can't do the "I thought he was the smarter brother" gag.)

Seems like total silence would work as well as those ST:TNG aliens who only spoke in metaphors...
