Watson meets his old friend on the road and tells him that he is finding it difficult to find a room. So Watson’s friend suggests that he should share a room with someone. Watson says that no one would share a room with him. His friend says that someone else is also seeking a roommate to share a room with and that person is Sherlock Holmes. Watson’s friend takes him to Sherlock Holmes for the first time. They enter a room where they see Sherlock doing some work. Sherlock slightly observes Watson and tells that he has worked in Afghanistan or Iraq. Watson gets stunned. Sherlock guesses correctly that Watson has come there to share a room. He says that and he leaves from there. As per Sherlock’s plan Watson goes to meet Sherlock the next day at his house.

On the way to the crime scene, Sherlock Holmes explains how he guessed everything right about Watson. They both reach there and Sherlock starts analyzing the dead girl. After all the detailed analyzing, Sherlock comes to a conclusion that these four cases is not a suicide rather it is a murder. He understands that there is a suitcase missing in the house. So he runs from there in search of the suitcase. Watson comes down and searches for Sherlock and he comes to know that he left from there. Watson starts to walk from there and gets a call in a phone booth. He picks up the call. A person from the other side tells him to get inside the car. A car arrives and Watson gets inside the car without saying or asking anything. The car reached the destination and there was a man waiting for Watson.

So the number Watson texted was to the killer. Killer calls them back. Sherlock tracks the place and both of them go to that place. They go to a restaurant and wait till the killer shows up. A taxi parks near the shop and doesn’t move for a very long time. Sherlock suspects the passenger in the taxi and both of them start chasing it. Watson forgets his walking stick and follows Sherlock. They both come before the taxi and stop it. Sherlock opens the door of the taxi and realises that the passenger is not the killer. Both of them get disappointed and leave. They both go home and come to know that police have come to their home. Police have come to their home to check if there are drugs in the house. Sherlock asks in detail about the case and he finds the clue. Landlady comes up and tells them that a taxi driver has come. Sherlock says that he didn't book any cab.

Taxi driver takes him to a college room and starts talking to Sherlock. Sherlock by just seeing him and his taxi guesses everything about him correctly.
