A panic-stricken little girl wakes up on an aeroplane and finds everybody asleep. She picks a mobile phone up and hears  Jim Moriarty  announce "Welcome to the final problem". Mycroft Holmes  is at home, where Sherlock and Watson disable his home security to trick him into revealing that his sister,  Eurus , exists. At 221B Baker Street, Mycroft explains that Eurus was an era-defining genius on a par with  Isaac Newton , with abilities far greater than Sherlock's and Mycroft's, coupled with a total lack of normal sensation and emotion. Mycroft reveals that their parents sent Eurus to a mental institution after she kidnapped and drowned Sherlock's dog Redbeard, and after she burned their home down. Mycroft withheld this from Sherlock because Eurus had psychologically traumatized him as a child, taunting him with an enigmatic song, and leading ultimately to Mycroft having his memories 'rewritten', he'd also been lying to their parents about Eurus not sur...
