Besting Goemon in a one-on-one close quarters duel, trading gunfire with Jigen and getting the drop on him, and winning Fujiko’s heart. Especially at the end when he leaves the police to get him, he feels very alone and capable. The status he demands makes so much sense. He’s a powerful figure much like Lupin and a force to be reckoned with. I also really liked how this episode establishes the skills of Holmes.

Given the nightmares/repressed memories, Emily is having which is why she’s kinda scared shitless at his presence. The stage was set for Lupin III and Sherlock Holmes to clash after ten years, but unfortunately, that will have to wait as Lupin has already left London.
