** Right before jumping off St. Bart's, Sherlock tells John that Moriarty's version of the story is true so that John, Lestrade and Mrs Hudson won't get offed by snipers.
** Sherlock's earlier attempt to do this was, sadly, a lot more successful. John receives a phone call telling him that Mrs Hudson has been shot. Sherlock refuses to go with him to see her and acts as if he doesn't care about her when previous events have clearly shown otherwise. Throughout the episode, people have been slowly turning against Sherlock, all except John who has been fighting his corner all the way until this moment which causes him to snap and call Sherlock a 'machine' before abandoning him as well. It turns out Mrs Hudson was fine all along and the whole thing was a ruse set-up by Sherlock to get John to leave him so he could face Moriarty alone.
