* ShirtlessScene

to:

* SherlockScan
SherlockScan: It's hard to tell when Holmes is actually analyzing but it's definitely there. It's sporadic at most.
* ShirtlessSceneShirtlessScene: In "Child Predator" we first see Sherlock sitting with no shirt on and looking through some boxes. The funny part is he remembers having it on when he started his search the previous night and has no idea how or why he took it off.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: And it's a good thing, too. While Sherlock is an invaluable aide to the police, and Gregson realizes this, Holmes' antics often make him hard to deal with. Gregson often has to clean up Sherlock's messes after he offends people.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold

to:

* JerkWithAHeartOfGoldJerkWithAHeartOfGold: Sherlock is somewhat alienating in the way he relates to other people, but still seems to care about not needlessly insulting or angering people. For instance, his intentional mis-deducing of why Joan stopped being a surgeon was to "spare her feelings," and from his tone he was probably sincere about it too.

* InspectorLestrade

to:

* InspectorLestradeInspectorLestrade: Gregson seems to take the actual Lestrade's place as this role, undoubtedly named after one of Lestrade's colleagues in the first Sherlock Holmes story, Inspector Tobias Gregson.
