TJLC Explained: [Episode 13] A Scandal in Belgravia

AND THEN IT WAS TIME.... A Scandal in Belgravia causes a lot of people to have doubts about TJLC. It absolutely shouldn't. What on the surface appears to be a forced straight romance is actually one of the best episodes to prove TJLC as their attempt. Why else would they steal the plot of The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes for their Irene Adler episode? I hope this episode helps put some of your fears to rest, making it did for some of mine.

TJLC stands for The Johnlock Conspiracy or the belief that the writers of BBC Sherlock have intended for John and Sherlock to end up in a romantic relationship with each other since the start.
