A scene from Sherlock Holmes 2009
Inspector Lestrade

[Lestrade brings Holmes, handcuffed, before the Home Secretary, Lord Coward]

Excuse me, my lord. I know it's unorthodox, but Mr. Holmes here has been making some serious accusations about you … [lifts his lapel, showing a membership pin from the Temple of the Four Orders] … and the Order, sir.

Lord Coward

I see.

Sherlock Holmes

Well, at least that solves the great mystery of how you became Inspector.

Inspector Lestrade

[turns and punches Holmes in the stomach]

Begging your pardon, my lord, but I've been wanting to do that for a long time.
