    • John gets so, so angry.
    • 'Molly, I think I'm going to die.'
    • 'If I wasn't everything you think I am - everything I think I am, would you still want to help me?'
      • 'What do you need?'

    • He rests his hand on the gravestone.
    • 'I was so alone. And I owe you so much. Please, there's just one more thing. One more thing. One more miracle, Sherlock, for me. Don't be dead. Would you do that for me? Just stop it. Stop this.'
    • John can hardly say dead.
    • And he cries.
    • And becomes a solider again.
    • And he limps away.
    • And bloody Sherlock is just there watching, and he's so getting punched when they reunite.
