Summary
Lamb holds the collar out. “Put it on.”
River eyes it, swallows. “Why would I put it on?” he asks testily. He doesn’t like this line of questioning, in that he does like it, wants to keep following it, but he shouldn’t. This is dangerous.
“Because you said you were good at this,” Lamb explains, dragging his eyes up and down assessingly, “and I want you to show me.”

Summary
“Why would someone try to make a stabbing look like a gunshot wound?”
“Because the knife gives them away," Sherlock tells him.
While resting and recuperating, Sherlock lucid dreams. John ruminates.
In the meantime, two unconnected men have died in eerily similar ways in completely separate parts of London. It's a welcome distraction.

Summary
“But you admit it! You did tempt me!”
“I offered you warm food during a storm,” Crowley argues. “If you call that temptation, I’d hate to see you talk to an innkeeper.” Aziraphale scowls some more. Crowley shrugs. “Besides, no harm done. You seem to be enjoying yourself.”
He has Aziraphale there. “Still,” he says, spreading his hands wide. “It has to be said—” He glances up to the sky. “—for anyone listening, that I am not at fault for my appetite.”
“Never said you were,” Crowley says. “Just said you liked the oysters.”
or, an examination vis-à-vis food and forgiveness

Summary
Stede takes in a deep breath and smiles. “Ed, I—” he says, but that’s as far as he gets before Ed’s pulling the gun out of its holster.
He aims, and Stede manages to yelp and duck just in the nick of time. The wood behind him splinters. “Fucking hell!” he yells, and springs back up into standing position. He takes a second to mourn the scarred wood before turning to Ed. “I know I cocked things up, but there’s no need to be dramatic!”
1717. The Golden Age of Piracy. Stede Bonnet sets about wooing the love of his life through any means necessary.
Things do not go as planned.

Summary
“That’s the first smart thing you’ve said all day.” Lamb smiled. “Maybe we can work through those daddy issues, yet.”
“Shut up, just- shut up.” River turned onto his side, away from Lamb. He briefly entertained the thought that he might simply will this entire situation away, if he wanted it enough; unfortunately, after squeezing his eyes shut and reopening them, that did not seem to be the case. Regrettable.
