Sherlock wakes Joan gently, quite possibly the first time he's ever done so. Joan carefully moves Ted's arm and sits up as Sherlock goes to get her pill and water. After she takes her medicine, Sherlock takes the glass from her and hands her his laptop, the police report from Ted's father's suicide on the screen. Joan frowns as she begins to read, but that frown turns into a deep crease of concern and sadness between her eyes. She looks up at Sherlock, who nods grimly, then down at Ted sleeping soundly next to her. What a terrible thing for him to have to carry around in his heart and on his mind. It also sheds light on his dedication to being so kind to everyone.

She hands the computer back to Sherlock and carefully lies back down, facing him. She gazes at his relaxed face then gently touches his cheek, so deeply in love and so sorry for the pain he's been through.
