The Last Adventure 2

The first series of the NHK puppetry "Sherlock Holmes" comes to an end by the leaving of not only Holmes but Ormstein and Moriarty also. And Irene Adler is not among those who see Holmes off. It is so suggestive and the second series will start when they come together again. Needless to say, the episode is based on "The Final Problem" but the discord between Holmes and his brother Mycroft is described as wells as that of Holmes and Moriarty.

In the episodes to be broadcast from July to September, small affairs will be described with the title of "Holmes and Watson A Room of Mystery". I will write about them and how I think about the reasoning of Holmes in the first series in the articles on the puppetry from now on.

The Last Adventure

After "The Adventure of the Incorrigible Headmaster", Holmes says goodbye to Watson and disappears. The next day Deputy Headmaster Moriarty visits 221B and asks Watson where he is but he answers that he doesn't know about it. After that, Mrs. Hudson appears with Holmes who is disguised as a house painter. He tells Watson that he drifted Sherman's shed, nurse's office whose door is closed, Diogenes Club and Mycroft's private room.

He tries to visit nurse's office to meet Irene Adler again and is carried by Watson making himself seem his dummy. But the door of nurse's office is still closed. Then they visits the room of Charles Augustus Milverton to tell him that he decided to leave the school over their tea made by Agatha. Milverton advises him that it's not the end but the start of another thing.

By the way WHO makes Holmes decide so? It's Mycroft, his brother. He overlooks Wilson Kemp's evil deed again and is tempted by Moriarty to put all the blames on his brother Sherlock. Then Moriarty eats a part of the decoration of Kemp's cake to cover up for Mycroft. Besides he tell Holmes and Watson that he will become a new headmaster and reorganise the school up to his ideal in front of a statue of Headmaster Ormstein though there is real Ormstein in it and hears what he says.

Moriarty's plot comes to light and he goes to an institute in Reihenbach and Ormstein resigns also. Holmes talks with Watson before leaving the school and promises him to meet again. He is seen off by pupils and teachers include Grimesby Roylott who becomes a farmer but Irene Adler is not there. He walks towards the gate where Jefferson Hope stands to meet him.

The Adventure of the Incorrigible Headmaster 2

Some scenes in it are based on those in Japanese traditional theatre or samurai drama. Unbinding of Kemp's bag is alike to obi-hodoki, untying of a woman's obi (sash) by a man to have relations with her. And the words "Kore nite ikkenn rakuchaku" (the case is closed) of Headmaster Ormstein, voiced by Baijaku Nakamura are famous lines by his father Umenosuke Nakamura in samurai drama "Toyama no Kin-san"broadcast in 1970s.

The Adventure of the Incorrigible Headmaster

One day, Headmaster Ormstein visits Holmes who is suspended from attending class and asks him to take back his love letters to Isadora Klein. He says that he is threatened by someone who gets them. Holmes is amazed at his repeated adultery but searches it secretly placing his dummy in 221B to make Lestrade believe that he is in the dorm.

Holmes finds that Isadora hands the letters to a pupil but she doesn't tell him his/her name. Langdale Pike informs him that the headmaster is threatened by one of second graders of Dealer House because answer sheet of mathematics for them is used as threatening letter. Holmes infers it's Wilson Kemp from the fact and calls him to 221B in cooperation with Watson and Lestrade.

Holmes suggests Kemp to tell him the truth but he refuses it flatly and Holmes is taken by Lestrade to Deputy Headmaster Moriarty for he goes out from the house without permission despite being suspended. Then Watson talks with him and make him confess him crime to an ornament in the shape of koala and leaves him alone.

After Kemp confesses that he puts the letters in a belt-shaped bag and ties it to his body, dummy of Holmes stands up and says "Thank you, Kemp" - it is not a dummy but real Holmes. They entrap Kemp and take back the letter of Headmaster Ormstein. The headmaster thanks Homes though Deputy Headmaster Moriarty blames him for doing such a thing during being suspended from school.

The Adventure of the One Hundred Tadpoles 2

The words of Irene Adler are important in the episode. She says that she lost the key to nurse's office and it enables Holmes, Watson and Wilson Kemp enter the office at nighttime. But what she says betrays both Holmes and Watson in the final episode of the First Series. Before it, she says that there're few kinds of medicine but honey for many pupils who visits the office pretend to be ill - maybe some male pupils who plan to see or talk with her act so. This honey seems to be an homage to Sherlock Holmes who starts an apiary after his retirement. And young Holmes is given a spoonful of honey from Irene at the end of the episode.
Anyway Miss Adler is too bold to be a school nurse.

The Adventure of the One Hundred Tadpoles

One morning Watson does his prop busily while Holmes blows a party horn. He says that he has no intention of doing it from the beginning. What is more, he says "Assuming the pain of doing prep is ten, the pain of being warned is six. I prefer the lighter". Then someone knocks a door of 221B. It is Irene Adler. As soon as hearing her voice, he makes Watson stop doing prep and cleans up their dorm with him in haste. Irene tells Holmes that Barnicot fainted and was carried to nurse's office on the previous night and he wants to meet him.

After that, Holmes visits nurse's office with Watson and learns that Barnicot had his picture stolen. It is for a picture contest by four houses themed on tadpole, nickname for Sir Percy Phelps who established Beeton School. At that time, another pupil who also is in bed stands up and appears before them. It is Mycroft and he tells his younger brother in fun that it's natural for him to be in high spirits when he is with Miss Adler who attracts him. And Wilson Kemp visits Barnicot who doesn't know of him. Holmes and Watson wonder why both Mycroft and Kemp visit there.

On that evening, they meet in the office again and are informed by Langdale Pike that Wilson Kemp represents Dealer House in the contest and nobody from the house has become winner recently. They wake Barnicot and tells him to go back to his dorm. Then Holmes asks Irene Adler to permit their stay there during the night. Miss Adler who is surprised with it first but permits it later. She also tells that she has no key to the room. That night they find someone enter there and tries to get Barnicot's picture beneath one of the beds. It's Wilson Kemp. They take back the picture drawn abstractedly and Mrs. Hudson brings a dish with silver cloche to 221B on the next morning.

Holmes and Watson suggest Barnicot to empty the cloche and he finds his picture there. However, it is not his work but the one poorly modelled on his by Mycroft. His picture stolen by Kemp was hidden in nurse's office and he planned to take it later though Barnicot's faint prevented it. So Mycroft visits nurse's office using feign illness and changed it with an imitated one. Holmes expresses apology to Barnicot but he doesn't mind for he know it's drawn by himself even if Kemp wins the contest and he will be happy if it's realised.

However the winner is not Kemp but Duncan Ross who draws "A Red Tadpole". Holmes who is depressed with it is given a spoon of honey in nurse's office.
