Meanwhile, Sherlock talks to Eurus, but she attacks him and knocks him unconscious. Using her skill to "reprogram" everyone she speaks with, Eurus has effectively ruled the prison. Mycroft and John corner the prison governor, discovering that he has explicitly disobeyed Mycroft's protocol and has allowed Eurus to interact with prison staff. Later, John and Sherlock hijack a fishing trawler to travel to Sherrinford, carrying out a diversionary plan so that Sherlock can reach Eurus' cell. John, Sherlock, and Mycroft flee as the bomb detonates, blasting Holmes and Watson out of the windows. When Mycroft insists that she is secured, a quadcopter carrying a motion-activated grenade flies into Sherlock's flat. An adult Mycroft then sent her to a Government 'Black site' and maximum-security facility, a "Prison within a prison", in the North Sea, Sherrinford, unknown to anyone outside very high ranking government officials and only on a need to know basis. Mycroft withheld this from Sherlock because Eurus had traumatized him as a child, taunting him with an enigmatic song, and leading ultimately to Mycroft having his memories 'rewritten', he'd also been lying to their parents about Eurus not surviving the blaze she had set. Mycroft reveals that their parents sent Eurus to a mental institution after she kidnapped and drowned Sherlock's dog Redbeard and after she burned their home down.

Mycroft Holmes is at home, where Sherlock and Watson trick him into revealing that their sister, Eurus, exists. She picks a mobile phone up and hears Jim Moriarty announce, "Welcome to the final problem".

At Ferndell Hall, the family country manor, Eudoria schooled her daughter in literature, physics, philosophy, martial arts, you name it. Most people do.ĭecades younger than her better-known siblings (Mycroft being the elder of the two Holmes brothers), Enola grew up primarily with just their mother Eudoria ( Helena Bonham Carter), a formidable woman of secrets. These are things we learn quickly from her many conspiratorial asides directed at the camera. ![]() ![]() Enola - who likes to point out that her name is “alone” spelled backward - is bright, clever, curious and, above all, resolute. The new Netflix movie “Enola Holmes,” based on “The Case of the Missing Marquess,” stars a delightful Millie Bobby Brown in a saucy 1900-set pastiche with a modern feminist spin. Bursting forth from Nancy Springer’s young adult series “Enola Holmes Mysteries,” which focuses on the younger sibling of Sherlock, Arthur Conan Doyle’s famous detective, Enola provides a richly fanciful, fresh perspective on the well-worn family name. ![]() Amy March, Scout Finch, Lisa Simpson … you never know what you’re going to get in a younger sister, and Enola Holmes is as surprising as any of them.
