9 Questions We Have After The Sherlock Season 4 Finale

Sherlock's fourth season came to an explosive end last week - and might just have taken the whole show with it. The episode, suitably titled "The Final Problem," endeavoured to wrap up every lingering plot thread the series had created and act as a possible end to the show, in the event that Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman's busy schedules - basically doing lots of Marvel movies - means that they're not free to do Sherlock again.

4) Did Molly Recover From The “I Love You” Scene?

Molly

One of the most emotional scenes in the finale is Eurus’ cruel experiment involving Molly Hooper. Apparently having rigged Molly’s house to explode, Eurus forces Sherlock to make Molly admit her long-standing feelings for him. If she doesn’t say the words “I love you,” she’ll die. He succeeds, but Molly – and Sherlock himself – is left devastated by the admission.

The lovestruck pathologist has garnered a strong fanbase over the years, so her supporters will be miffed at the fact we don’t get any kind of reconciliation scene between the pair later on in the episode. Did Molly get over this ordeal? In the last few moments of the episode, we can briefly see her smiling in Baker Street, but are things really A-OK between them?

Interestingly, even Sherlock‘s cast and crew can’t agree on this one. Steven Moffat thinks she easily got over it while actress Louise Brealey disagrees and thinks it would have left an emotional scar.
