...and Mr. Holmes turned to his assistant: Tell me, Watson, what do you see?
Watson was puzzled by the remark, but he looked up and said, "Stars. Millions and millions of them."
Holmes responded: "I agree. And Dr. Watson, certainly you have picked up on many of my techniques of deduction. Can you deduce something from what you see here?"
Dr. Watson looked at Mr. Holmes and said, "Well, I'm not as good as you are, by any stretch, but why not. I deduce that from these millions of stars, there must be at least one planet not unlike ours which supports intelligent life. I deduce that the universe is vast beyond measure, and that all of humanity is naught but a speck in the grandness of the cosmos. I deduce that someday mankind will explore these uncharted realms and be basked in the greatness of the universe."
Mr. Holmes nods through all of this. "Anything else you can deduce?"
Watson is a little taken aback, and responds "Is there something that comes to mind for you?"
Holmes turns to his assistant, looks him dead in the eye, and states: "Watson you dunderhead; someone stole our tent."
