WATSON:
Unless I'm much mistaken; some chocolate, some biscuit and...
WATSON DABS SOME SUBSTANCE ON HIS FINGERTIP AND TASTES IT.
WATSON (CONT'D ):
...well, that tastes of orange.
CARTER:
You are not mistaken. Now watch this.

What do you make of that?

Now. Watch this.

Never in my...I mean you...
CARTER:
One more; just so you know I'm not going mad.
