Mycroft Holmes is Back in Elementary’s “The Man with the Twisted Lip”

When we last checked in on Mycroft Holmes (Rhys Ifans) he was making discreet plans to encourage his brother Sherlock to return to London. Who is Mycroft working for and what is his goal?

We may be one step closer to finding out in CBS Elementary’s April 24 instalment “The Man with the Twisted Lip.”

According to the latest from CBS, the episode will see Mycroft making a surprise return to New York. However the motivations behind his visit soon cause discord between Sherlock and Joan.

We’ve seen Joan and Sherlock weather some personal relationship storms in the past, but generally these moments have involved scenarios in which Sherlock eventually came around to Joan’s way of thinking. But where Mycroft is concerned, will Joan be able to cast aside her personal feelings?

Meanwhile we are told, a missing person case takes our sleuthing duo inside the world of unmanned aeronautics.

Catch it Thursday April 24 on CBS.
