Sherlock starts out by mapping five filings from five different accounts via the Treasury Whitehall into one private bank, with only an account number to trace and no name. His theory is that someone is moving the money around as a form of bribery, extortion or blackmail of government officials. He is investigating unaccounted transfers of money going in and out of government funds in banks. Here is where Sherlock’s case comes into play. A series of clues - such as a tube of lipstick, a date, a poem, a Sweet William flower symbol and a sheet of music lead Enola to find that evidence at the Paragon Theater, where everything comes together after some expected chaos. Tewksbury holds sway with his newfound political influence. With the help of her crush Lord Tewkesbury (Louis Partridge), Enola finds Sarah, disguised as Cecily, who attempts to impart her secret knowledge to Tewksbury in the form of stolen documents and records. The shift in harmless to harmful chemicals that doubled the factory’s profit is marked by the switch from red matches to white. Rather than typhus causing the match girls to fall ill with disease that manifests in mouth swelling, first Sarah (through experimentation) and then Enola realizes that the phosphorus used in matchmaking is the real culprit. After tailing Sarah’s friend Mae (Abbie Hern) who works a night job dancing at the Paragon Theater along with Sarah, nabbing a waltz with William Lyon (Gabriel Tierney) son of Henry Lyon at a fancy ball and several other loose threads, Enola finds out what led Sarah to disappear. Enola reports to Sarah’s shift to investigate the factory and learn more about Sarah. The Sherlock siblings collide when their cases overlap, something Sherlock reveals about halfway through the film, and there is not one but two antagonists who reveal themselves at the end of the movie.Įnola starts out by searching for missing girl Sarah Chapman (Hannah Dodd), whose absence gets reported to her by her “sister” Bessie, who worked with Sarah in the Lyon Match Factory. “Enola Holmes 2” ends by pulling out all the stops.
