A scene from Sherlock Holmes 2009
Fortune Teller

[Reading Watson's palm]

Oh, I see two men. Brothers. Not in blood, but in bond.

Watson

What of Mary?

Fortune Teller

M for Mary, for Marriage. Oh, you will be married.

Watson

Go on.

Fortune Teller

Oh, I see patterned tableclothes, oh! China figurines, oh, and lace doilies!

Holmes

[mutters]

Doilies.

Watson

Lace doilies? [He realizes that Holmes must have paid the fortune teller to rip him off] Holmes? Does your depravity know no boundaries?

Holmes

No.

Fortune Teller

Oh, she turns to fat! And oh, she has a beard!

Holmes

What of the warts?

Fortune Teller

Oh she's covered in warts.

Watson

Enough.

Holmes

[over Watson]

Are they extensive?

Watson

Please, enough!

Holmes

It's the most apt prediction Flora has made in years, and precisely the reason you cannot find a ring.
