Watch: Sherlock Tastes the Bitterness of Deductive Defeat in Spot-On Spoof

Fans of Sherlock enjoy the namesake character’s astounding ability to deduce details of a person’s life based only on tiny physical and demographic clues. The shtick is entertaining, clever and hardly believable. Which is why this spoof is so gratifying.

Here, Sherlock does his thing, revealing intimate knowledge of a stranger’s life based on his keen eye and astronomical intelligence. Except in this case, he’s completely wrong. Details Sherlock finds ever-so-meaningful are actually just random, or misinterpreted. Like, you know, the real world.

Watch Sherlock get his comeuppance and revel in the idea that for once, he’s no better than the rest of us bumbling humans.
