Here is the full release timing of the episode according to different time zones:
Before watching episode 3, it's well worth taking a look back at where the show left us. Episode 2 continued to develop the rapport between the great detective and Amelia Rojas, a young woman who believes Sherlock could be her father.
As Amelia wants to help out with fieldwork, Sherlock educates her on patience and observation, illustrated by a rather bizarre lesson about boiling an egg.
But the mystery soon drags the two characters back to work. When the American ambassador comes to redeploy his daughter's case to Inspector Bullivant, Sherlock dispatches Amelia undercover as a maid to collect evidence. She finds evidence of theft, stolen jewels, and suspicious tracks, and stays out of jail by convincing Marjorie and Paul Anderson that she is innocent.
Amelia and Sherlock then start tracing the case individually. Amelia investigates a runaway horse lead, and Sherlock investigates a secret carriage involved in a kidnapping. Their efforts together show that the prime suspect, Charlie Holroyd, had tried selling stolen gems and was linked to a coffin factory through a strange golden screw.
In a climactic turn, Amelia spots Charlie exiting the factory with Clara Anderson, whom he had intended to smuggle out of the country. She gives chase on horseback, rescues Clara, and reunites with Sherlock just in time for their escape. The detective explains that Clara and Charlie had intended to elope after stealing her mother's jewels.
Titled Partners in Crime, Sherlock & Daughter episode 3 is likely to explore the consequences of Amelia's arrest and the pressure it puts on her working relationship with Sherlock. With the red thread still fueling suspicion of Amelia's allegiances, viewers may see Holmes struggling with his instincts, doubting his protégé while suspecting her of dishonesty.
Episode 3 also continues the story in increasingly perilous directions, with Amelia sneaking back to Clara's house incognito in pursuit of additional clues. Meanwhile, Sherlock plans a strategic trip to his arch-nemesis, Professor Moriarty, in the guise of consulting on earlier cases. But it turns out that Sherlock's actual agenda is something else.
The jail scene between Holmes and Moriarty can provide additional depth to the mystery that has been slowly unfolding through the last two episodes. With the larger conspiracy building, Sherlock & Daughter episode 3 might provide key details on how the kidnapping ring functions and what Sherlock has to pay to take them down.
