Sherlock Scan	comment	A device used to introduce a detective character and their skills. The detective mentions some fact about the person they've just met, something that is not immediately obvious and they have no way of knowing ("Quitting cigarettes appears to have been good for you", "How's the wedding planning going?", "You've holidayed in Italy recently"). The other character looks skeptical or surprised, then the detective describes their reasoning from a set of minor clues (state and style of clothes, marks on skin, tan, etc.) and consequent assumptions. This is often not connected directly to the main plotline, but just to show "This is how the detective's mind works, and yes, the detective is That Good." The obvious subversion is to play this out, then have the detective admit that they were told the fact, or else for the other person to insist the detective is utterly wrong. This is often cited as a demonstration of deductive reasoning (reaching a conclusion that is true by definition based on its premises) but is actually an example of inductive or abductive reasoning (reaching a conclusion that has some probability of being true based on its premises). In general, deductive arguments produce only trivial truths in a field like detective work, so induction is all you can use. Due to the laws of probability, this means that a detailed scan should be extremely likely to err on a few details, but this almost never happens in fiction. You will, however, find that once a character begins a Sherlock Scan their vision magically adjusts to 20/20, so that they can pick up every visual clue and expound on it without an unsightly squint. A common parody of this is to have the detective note these details before drawing attention to the blindingly obvious clue, or occasionally notes the obvious clue immediately. Compare the Scarily Competent Tracker, who is like a Sherlock Scan done on footprints, and the Batman Cold Open. See also Hyper-Awareness and Awesomeness by Analysis. When this kind of reasoning makes no sense but still works, it's a Bat Deduction. When the above subversion of performing one of these before noting an obvious hint occurs, it's Clue, Evidence, and a Smoking Gun. If there's a "psychic" bent to the scan, it's Cold Reading. If a criminal does this to the detective interrogating them, then it might be part of a Hannibal Lecture. In Video Game settings this can manifest as Enemy Scan against enemies, especially if done without the help of magic or a device. For when one uses this to find a location, see GPS Evidence. See also Eagle-Eye Detection.

Sherlock Scan / int_109f7814	comment	Sherlock, unsurprisingly, uses this at least once an episode. "A Study in Pink" contains 3 different types of scans to establish just how crazy the titular detective is. Though in a bit of a departure from the usual trope, he's not always quite right — when he first meets Watson, he deduces that Watson has an estranged alcoholic brother named Harry who has recently left his wife—then asks Watson which detail he got wrong because it's impossible to pull this trope off perfectly. He's right about the troubled sibling relationship, the alcohol, and the break-up...but Harry is short for Harriet. A Double Subversion in "The Blind Banker". Sherlock tells a college acquaintance familiar with his deductive scans that he's been around the world twice in the last month. When asked how he knew, Sherlock says the secretary mentioned it, which John knows to be untrue. Sherlock later explains to John that he deduced it from looking at the man's watch and seeing the date changes, but felt like messing with the guy's head. Subverted in "The Great Game" when Sherlock, having pronounced Molly's new boyfriend Jim gay, follows up a long list of subtle, ambiguous clues about Jim's personal grooming habits with the fact that he has just given Sherlock his phone number. And after all that, he still misses the fact that Jim's last name is Moriarty. Whether or not the gay part is true or Moriarity testing Sherlock has given the fans lots to argue about. Subverted to the point of parody in "A Scandal in Belgravia", when Irene Adler flummoxes Sherlock by giving him nothing to scan. To add to the humor, Sherlock immediately looks over at John and confirms he's not going insane by scanning him effortlessly (the subtitles point out "new toothbrush" and "going out on date tonight"), then he glances right back at Irene's mischievous smile... and all he can get is "??????" In the same episode, because he wants to show off and impress Irene, we see his Sherlock Scan enter Bullet Time, breaking the combination of a safe in under 8 seconds! She later references the act as proof of his abilities, so he succeeded in impressing her. And he realizes the combination is her measurements—so he did pick up relevant information on her after all, he just didn't know what it was relevant to until he was told to open the safe. At another point in the episode, the scan is used to highlight Sherlock's hidden anger, as it becomes a litany of ways to inflict pain and injury on the operative who had worked over Mrs. Hudson. Mycroft's scanning abilities are shown to be superior in "The Great Game". Sherlock asks John (who has just spent a night at his girlfriend's house but not in her bed) "How was the lilo", only for Mycroft to immediately correct him: "Sofa, Sherlock, it was the sofa." Although after a second or two of focus, Sherlock apparently sees the evidence and admits the mistake, although you can see he's a bit annoyed that Mycroft was correct more quickly. In "The Empty Hearse" Sherlock and Mycroft have a Scan-off with a hat left behind by one of Sherlock's clients, volleying deductions back and forth until Sherlock runs out of fresh details to analyse. However, Sherlock offers an insight into the subject's social isolation overlooked by Mycroft, who cannot perceive loneliness in himself or in others. Non-verifiable deduction so Sherlock loses the battle... but he wins the broader war by completely flummoxing Mycroft. Hilariously subverted in "The Sign of Three", when Sherlock is called out on a case while messily drunk. When he tries to scan the crime scene, all of the deduction subtitles are blurry, inaccurate, and slurred, like "egg chair sitty thing", "???", and "sleep". Then played straight when Sherlock involuntarily notices Mary's change in tastes among other things and deduces that she is pregnant, which annoys Watson since Sherlock noticed the medical symptoms before John, her husband and a doctor, could. Also subverted in "The Six Thatchers", when Mary goes on the run for It's Not You, It's My Enemies reasons and bases her entire route on die rolls, knowing that not even Sherlock can predict total randomness. Sherlock shows up on her doorstep anyway and makes a long-winded speech about how nothing is truly random and people always leave a string of psychological clues as to where they're going... before revealing that he was just making it up and he put a tracker on her.

Sherlock Scan / int_1367cea0	comment	In Worm, the character of Tattletale, whose superpower is basically enhanced intuition, is very good at using this along with the Hannibal Lecture to blackmail her enemies by revealing all their secrets and weaknesses. It goes a bit farther than normal since her power lets her make impossible deductions such as determining someone's PIN from the way they dress. It isn't perfect though: she is still capable of drawing wrong conclusions, and the chances of doing so increase the further the leaps in logic her power makes. Furthermore, if she starts from false information, she will of course draw false conclusions based on it.

Sherlock Scan / int_15d17004	comment	Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes (2009): In addition to putting it to its conventional use, Sherlock also weaponizes it, using it to meticulously plan out how he will thoroughly beat the crap out of someone. The fight is shown in Bullet Time as he plans and then in a dizzying flurry of action in real time when he follows through. Guy Ritchie calls this "Holmes-O-Vision". Witness it in action in the famous "Discombobulate" scene. He also uses it on Mary Morstan (at her eager request). His observations are bang-on, though unusually, he does make a slight mistake in guessing the age of Mary's male pupil — rather than being eight years old, he's actually seven, but tall for his age — right down to the tan line on her finger speaking of a prior betrothal. When he rather cattily speculates that she broke off the engagement to find better prospects (i.e., Watson), she tosses her drink in his face. Turns out, the guy died before they could marry. Earlier in the scene, when Holmes is alone at the table, it's implied that he suffers from hyper-awareness, and can't turn it off. Dr. Watson has been working with Holmes so long, he's picked up on the talent himself. Holmes invites him to examine a pocket watch as evidence, to which Watson accurately deduces the previous owner was a drunk and bought it secondhand from a pawn shop. In the sequel, the Holmes-O-Vision fights are both derailed mid-follow-through. The first time, the assassin he's kicking the ass of gets a knife to his body armour, forcing Holmes to improvise. The second time, it's revealed that Moriarty can do the same thing — and they both realize that Holmes is going to lose in a proper fight. Holmes ends up pulling a Taking You with Me and showing that Moriarty's scan has a fatal flaw. Also in the second film, Watson's own ability to perform the Sherlock Scan becomes important in order to deduce the intended assassin from one of several ambassadors, as Holmes is occupied by Moriarty above. It is also subverted, however; he and Simza can't deduce the assassin with enough certainty to take the leap, so Watson exploits a flaw in his circumstances. Once, when Holmes is put on a Blindfolded Trip, he delivers a turn-by-turn account of the entire route his carriage took just based on various smells and jolts in the ride. There is a scene in the sequel where Sherlock and Mycroft banter by making astute observations about each other. Watson interrupts them by making a deduction of his own.

Basil is able, for example, to deduce that Dawson is not just a doctor, but a surgeon who just came from military service in Afghanistan, all from merely glancing at the way he mended a rip on his coatnote To elaborate, Dawson sewed it with a Lambert stitch, something only a surgeon uses, and the thread was a unique form of catgut with a distinguishing smell that's found only in the Afghan Providence. Basil also constantly mentions that Fidget has a crippled wing when trying to describe the bat, much to everyone's confusion.

House is also more prone to being wrong, usually letting his misanthropy cause him to misinterpret clues. A prime example in "Occam's Razor", with a clinic patient: The mystery writer in the episode "Unwritten" pulls this on Chase, figuring out his recent divorce among other things. When a patient asks House how he knows she's pregnant, he answers, "I know because of the tight shirt stretched over the swollen boobs, the salt craving you've imported into the clinic, the motion sickness patch that doesn't do anything for the kind of sickness that you feel in the morning."

It's shown in the first episode where he passes a bellhop and a man talking and can tell both are undercover cops. Mike asks what time the pool is open and the bellhop gives the hours, but Mike remembers passing a father and son talking about the pool being closed for cleaning. This lets Mike know the cops are setting up a sting for the drug deal he's about to walk in on. When he's arrested in season 5, Mike finds himself threatened by a burly man in his cell. Mike, however, remembers seeing the man's photo on a wall of agents and knows the guy is a federal agent trying to scare Mike into incriminating himself. When a federal prosecutor tries to claim she doesn't have video of Mike being interrogated without a lawyer, Mike fires back by reciting the serial number of the camera that was used. The judge tells the prosecutor to either drop her motion to have Harvey removed as Mike's lawyer or she'll subpoena the camera and catch the prosecutor in perjury.

After that, Holmes' entire first day in Ankh-Morpork is a comedy of missed deductions; he pegs Carrot as the son of a farmer, Angua as a dog-lover (basically true, but...), Nobby as a Watch mascot, and Detritus as part of the statuary — this last nearly gets him killed. Holmes gets along a lot better with Ponder — once they iron out a compromise on the "no such thing as magic" issue.

Sherlock Scan / int_3e5de40b	comment	Parodied on Scrubs when JD deduces that Turk is naked over a watchie-talkie (a watch with a built-in walkie-talkie) because his voice is always higher when he's naked. This immediately prompts Dr. Cox to remark on how disturbing it is that he knows that. In one episode, JD considers himself stronger in diagnosing than Elliot and tries to coach her on how to put clues together in this manner by using a nearby example on display. The example being an odd, precise stack of sugar packets on the floor, which JD deduced was a ploy by The Todd to get a nurse in search of sugar for her coffee to bend down and reveal her thong. Played straight on yet another episode. Turk (a surgeon) and Dr. Molly Clock (a psychiatric doctor) challenge each other on instant diagnosis of a succession of people walking into the hospital. We never really know if either of them are right, but Dr. Clock's diagnosis of alcoholism for a man who walks in wearing a beer hat is probably on the money (and, to her credit, she concedes that that one was a gimme). Molly then turns this game around on Turk, who is ignoring the classic symptoms of diabetes that he himself is exhibiting. And let's not forget that Clock became a psychiatrist because of her innate ability to immediately discern the one thing a person most hates about themselves.

In The Absence of Mr Glass, some characters involve a brilliant criminologist in a domestic case, where he concludes with a sinister and dramatical interpretation of some facts. Dramatic and totally false. The apparent killer is only a magician, so that the cards, the knives, the swords, and the mysteriously large top hat have a very simple explanation. At the end of the tale, everyone (also the criminologist) is laughing. In The Honor of Israel Gow, Father Brown is called in to investigate the disappearance of a Lord Ogilvy, and the police point out several oddities found around the Lord's manor: jewels cut but without settings, piles of snuff here and there, candles set on tables or stuck in bottles rather than in candlesticks, random bits of clockwork, etc. In rapid succession, Father Brown produces four plausible but mutually contradictory explanations for these oddities... none of which turns out to be the truth.

For example, he's able to determine that a particular faerie queen was not responsible for a particular murder by simply analyzing her behavior and comparing it to details of the murder. Later in that same book, he's forced to reveal how he deduced the murder mystery, right down to the fine details of the methodology, and the participants. At one point in Turn Coat, however, the scan is used to disturbing effect by Thomas, a White Court vampire, who has Harry do a few scans of some nearby human bystanders to see what he sees when he looks at them. Harry does so, providing detailed information on each group of people, at which point Thomas just points to each group and says, "Food," one after the other, to demonstrate how different he is from Harry.

Sherlock Scan / int_468bebb0	comment	In the Discworld series, Vimes complains about those a lot, as seen here when he takes apart a very specific instance from the beginning of The Red-Haired League. Nonetheless he occasionally does it himself, and he only notes that said evidence is out of place, withholding judgement until he knows more—for example, in Feet of Clay he finds a smear of white clay on the floor, which he notes is odd because Ankh-Morpork is on black loam. He does a subversion in Jingo when he takes a look at a single clove and gives an impossibly precise description of the man who last touched it. Of course, he knows who it is because there's only one man in Ankh-Morpork who chews on cloves. Vimes also has a Holmes-esque knowledge of the streets of Ankh-Morpork (due to patrolling them for so long) and uses it to similar effect. More directly spoofed in Lords and Ladies when Granny Weatherwax makes a number of deductions while clearing grass around the Dancers, notably that something broke out and killed someone, describing the deceased in great detail. When Nanny Ogg asks how she figured all that out, Granny replies that she just stepped on the body. Night Watch Discworld: "Seamstress" Rosie Palm manages one on "John Keel" to figure out he's not really who he says he is, and gets well within the ballpark of Vimes' actual identity. The infield, in fact. Of course, for ladies of the evening, sizing up men quickly on little information is a valuable trade skill.

The Warrior of Light first sees the inspector accusing a man of being a murderer. The man protests that he's just a humble merchant and the victim in question was killed by an Amalj'aa archer. Brierdien picks apart the argument by pointing out that the Amalj'aa are notorious slavers who would kidnap a helpless traveler rather than kill them. He also notes that the man he's accusing doesn't have the hand calluses of a merchant, but a skilled archer. Knowing a little of the man's history, he deduced that he murdered the victim with an Amalj'aa bow and arrow either for money or because the victim bedded the man's sister. When he confesses to the later motivation, Briardien shows irritation because he would have guessed the motivation to be money.

He demonstrates several different Sherlock Scans, all of which are accurate and logical once he explains his trains of thought, but most of which are ultimately a way to maintain the cover of Sebastian Michaelis, devil of a butler and Not Quite Dead. He ends up being the inspiration for Arthur (author of A Study in Scarlet) to continue writing professionally. His scans include: Identifying a particular guest of Ciel's party as Karl Woodley. Identifying Arthur as an author (while praising him for saving the Vicar his breath). The classic Holmesian "drunkard's pocket watch" scan, combined with The Nose Knows. Identifying a faked-death-turned-backstab via the aforementioned nose-knowing and a knowledge of poisons. Dissolving suspicions of actress Irene Diaz being a vampire after said actress was found to be twelve years older than her lover and possessing a bottle of dark red liquid.

She gloats about how "the game is starting" and they have no idea where to start looking for her. A later episode has Cameron noting this as the main trick of a psychic to make her predictions. Kay and Cameron are following a thief to a subway station, Kay saying it's just them. Cameron points out how the janitor seems to be avoiding actually sweeping trash; a teenager is clearly a guy in his 30s who's not really playing a handheld game; a "homeless" woman has a brand-new manicure; another woman is talking on her cell phone despite the fact the underground station has terrible coverage; and a woman in a fancy suit is pushing a cheap stroller.

However, after years of getting shut down for his wild and crazy theories he's made a habit of not always being so forthcoming to anyone about his actual deductions, and only ends up narrating his logic to Scully. It's sometimes forgotten that Mulder acquired his nickname of "Spooky Mulder" back at the FBI academy way before he got involved with the paranormal — his skill at building quick and in-depth profiles was so good that people thought it was spooky. Senior FBI agents were already talking about him while he was still a cadet. Played for Laughs in the episode "Humbug". A little person, in a town full of circus performers, gets offended when Mulder asks if he's done any circus work.

Sherlock Scan / int_6c4df4aa	comment	In Granada TV's Sherlock Holmes adaptation, one of the key ways that the producers attempted to perform a Character Rerailment on Dr. Watson and demonstrate that he wasn't the dunce that popular belief had Flanderized him into was to give Holmes the breathtakingly sudden moments of Sherlock Scan insight — however, it would then be Watson who would explain the clues to the astonished recipient, suggesting that he was intelligent enough to gradually take on board Holmes' methods but wasn't quite as quick or insightful about them. Double-subverted in another one of Jeremy Brett's attempts to counteract the Flanderization of Watson. Watson is given the opportunity to perform a Sherlock Scan on Holmes himself, to explain Holmes's apparent bad mood and unexpected presence. Sherlock responds with a list of plausible alternate explanations for the clues that Watson picked up on, but finally he grudgingly admits that Watson was, in fact, right all along. In the adaptation of "The Devil's Foot", Holmes plays with this schtick a bit. He meets a country pastor and does his usual observation and deduction of the man which is of course amazingly accurate, including the subject of his last sermon. When the impressed pastor asks how he could possibly have known, Holmes explains what he observed. As for the sermon, he playfully revealed that he had read a copy of the local church's last Sunday service program beforehand.

Seeing that the bodies are all in the same state he guesses they were killed with the same kind of blade, and that it would seem unnatural to propose that more than one man exists who could handle such a freakish weapon.

They are also capable of variations, such as being able to observe architecture and determine the intentions behind its design. Those who are unfamiliar with the Bene Gesserit techniques often assume their abilities derive from magic or trickery (a notion the Bene Gesserit do little to assuage). Their observational techniques are also less effective when employed against another who has been trained in them and knows how to conceal or mislead the observed factors. Also a staple of the Mentats in the series, both schools train extensively in observation, but the Mentats process data based more on statistics and probabilities. There are a few examples of individuals of both disciplines, such as Reverend Mother Anteac and Reverend Mother Bellonda.

Sherlock Scan / int_7cf5a07	comment	On The Flash (2014), the gang recruit Sherloque Wells, one of the many multiverse versions of Harrison Wells who is his world's greatest detective. Naturally, he does this a lot. Notable is that Wells appears to figure out the secret identity of Cicada so the team arrest him. However, it turns out he's not Cicada, and Sherloque was actually going off the fact that in 37 different Earths, Cicada was always the same guy. Sherloque has mentioned having seven ex-wives who are all other-Earth versions of Renee Adler. When he meets the Earth-1 version of Renee, Sherloque instantly figures out her past as a ballet dancer, her job as a librarian, and more. Renee's reaction is to naturally assume he's been stalking her and warning him off. In the pilot episode, Barry does this to determine the make/model of a bank robber's getaway vehicle at a crime scene, complete with Sherlockian onscreen figures to show his work. It only happened the once though, and was never used in the series again.

Sherlock Scan / int_7dcdbde1	comment	Made into an actual gameplay element in The Great Ace Attorney- unsurprising, since the trope namer himself is a major character. Of course, since Herlock Sholmes is something of a Cloud Cuckoolander, he'll often look at the wrong details or draw the wrong conclusions, requiring Ryunosuke to correct him. The final case implies that he's doing it on purpose to teach Ryunosuke how to do it himself. When he's on a time crunch with his old friend Yujin, his deduction is perfect on the first go and Yujin just checks his work.

Sherlock Scan / int_80db7c52	comment	Aggretsuko: Fenneko pulls off one in figuring out where Retsuko has gone that she's thrice turned down Haida's invitations to dinner, to the latter's bewilderment. Haida guesses that perhaps Retsuko had found a guy to date, but even though Fenneko says Retsuko doesn't discuss her love life with her Fenneko doesn't think it's a guy, then needs all of five seconds to prove it by showing Haida a social media selfie of some unrelated flamingo lady at a yoga session with Retsuko in the background. Fenneko then goes into a spiel (complete with deerstalker cap and pipe) about how she figured it out: Retsuko walking in the opposite direction of the train station twice a week after work when she normally goes straight home (so too close for a train ride), complaints about sore muscles (so something physical), not a kickboxing type so Fenneko guessed pilates or yoga, combined with limiting social media posts to nearby locations meant the search was brief enough to find Retsuko quick.

Very occasionally he drops hints about how he figured some of these things out. He can also make very good guesses about someone based on their tastes in art or how they regard it. His Number Two, Pelleaon, speculates that this may be done just to impress people, and he does his actual tactical analysis privately. Either way, it's still impressive.

When the constables bring along a man they found with a mask and a safe deposit box, the bearded man speaks up again, noting the red marks on the bridge of the man's nose and the fact that one hand is markedly cleaner than the other before stating he works a machinist. He goes on to state the nearby machine shop's shift change happened half an hour after the robbery, so he cannot possibly be involved in the crime. Murdoch demands to know how he knows all this, and the man peels off his false beard and introduces himself as Sherlock Holmes. Murdoch is later chagrined to learn the man was right about all the details. note Sir Arthur Conan Doyle exists in this universe, and had appeared in two prior episodes, and shows up to persuade the man he's not Sherlock. Well, he tries to.

Sherlock Scan / int_8d81f086	comment	Monk does this, but since he's incredibly socially inept, he doesn't always know which details not to bring up. Just a tip: If you know that a woman is lying about her age, don't call her out on it. Or if you know that the judge at the probate hearing is sleeping with his secretary. Or that a widow is having sex if her daughter is also standing there. The judge version hangs a lampshade, as the judge had been skeptical of Monk's ability to Sherlock Scan a person. The judge made the mistake of having Monk turn around and being asked to describe his shirt. Monk proceeded to ask which one; the one he was wearing, or the one his court reporter was wearing. He proceeded to talk about his Sherlock scan, including the blouse of the court reporter being in her bag with a button missing, the cushion on the couch the wrong way in, etc. Plus, the judge ruled in his favor, having been completely satisfied with Monk's ability. Parodied when a rival detective, played by Jason Alexander, is able to tell more details than Monk can as soon as he walks into a scene. Monk thinks the reasons he gives are ridiculous (and they do so sound to a viewer as well), but the other characters don't think so because they've seen Monk do equally incredible stuff. Subverted as this detective's mother overheard the criminals bragging about what they'd done while they were on hold (since she was a quality control operator) and told him what she'd heard. He was faking the whole thing.

Sherlock Scan / int_8f25225c	comment	Danganronpa: In the 1st and 2nd games, the player character has an ability that can be activated by hitting the Triangle button. With it, all objects in a room worth checking out are highlighted, making the investigation go smoother. Meanwhile, the franchise's Ultimate Detective, Kyoko Kirigiri, makes frequent use of this trope nearly every time she appears in the series. Her quick work at crime scenes has her constantly putting forth theories that tend to be correct. She also manages to deduce the Mastermind's psychology, motives, intentions, and several exploitable weak points with no more information than the player is given. She goes on to casually work out the entire purpose behind the Killing School Life and drops several heavy hints about the game's major plot twists chapters before they are revealed. It is even seriously implied that she predicted exactly how the Mastermind would react to some of her edgier investigating later on in the game, as she can be seen preparing for the inevitable retaliation days in advance. How did she do all of this? Why, simple observation, of course! She had no more advantages than anybody else in the game. Kirigiri also displays the unique ability to "hear the Reaper's footsteps" throughout the series. She can sense when death is upon her or a loved one with a kind of gut feeling. She used this ability to rescue Makoto Naegi the moment the Mastermind had snuck into his room, intent on stabbing him to death. In Danganronpa: Kirigiri, it is theorized that this ability stems from her deductive skills. When somebody is in grave danger, Kirigiri jumps through most of the intermediary steps involved in a typical deduction to arrive at the conclusion almost instantaneously, with even her unsure how she got there. The details she has been passively collecting through her surroundings just raise a red flag and tell her to respond in a specific way. Ironically enough, she will later go on to criticize this entire trope as unrealistic in the final investigation of the first game as she lays out her methods to the player.

Those members of the family who act as courtiers instead of investigators find this useful, as well - being able to pick out minor but crucial details is great when you need to break someone's ego.

Of course it's just as often parodied. In Get Smart Again, Max deduces the identity of the man who escaped over the fence leaving his pants behind.

He utilises this on and off by hiding it behind his goofy personality. But when it comes to fighting, he becomes a tactical genius and can gain an advantage just from just scanning his surroundings and his enemies. He occasionally takes it a step further by predicting what his enemies will say with complete accuracy, throwing them off even further than before, usually just before a critical attack is executed; Fanon, and even a slight nod by mangaka Araki himself attributes this to a subconscious activation of his Stand that he properly gained in Part 3, chronologically taking place 5 decades later.

However, when Watson tries to give a scan of a prospective client to prove himself capable of tackling the case alone, he's met with the response that it's no time for games. When "Holmes" appears and is given the same details to reveal, or indeed when he even says something quite inane, he's hailed as a genius every time. He also tries to learn the method himself, but the best he can ever do is "deduce" that someone reads the Times. In the same scene, when "Holmes" claims to have deduced a bunch of other things about the person, all of which are wrong, you can see Watson looking puzzled and quickly scanning the target with his eyes.

"And what do you deduce from that?" Watson ponders for a minute. "Well, astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.

"Human Nature": John Smith, the Doctor in human form with Fake Memories, does this instinctively to notice several things about to go wrong which will result in a piano falling on a Baby Carriage, and stops it. In "The Eleventh Hour", the Doctor does one of these on a park full of people with camera phones. In "The Beast Below", the Doctor's able to work out the intimate details of an entire society this way. He goes very Sherlock on the Scrooge of the 2010 Christmas Special "A Christmas Carol". He tries to do this while pretending to be Sherlock Holmes in "The Snowmen"... and fails miserably at it. However, he was probably deliberately being foolish to annoy Simeon and put him off guard, or stalling for time while he figures out what's afoot in the room. In "The Day of the Doctor", the Tenth Doctor attempts one of these to explain to the person in front of him, who looks like Queen Elizabeth, why he knows she's a shapeshifting imposter. Then he finds out it's the real Queen Elizabeth. His deductions only failed because Queen Elizabeth was more capable than he thought she was and had her own plans involving him.

Though the disguise seems flawless to the cops, Bubbles quickly says that he would instantly be able to spot Sydnor as an undercover cop because Sydnor is wearing a wedding ring and the soles of his shoes are clean. Bubbles points out that a real junkie would have long since pawned off his wedding ring to pay for drugs and would have broken glass embedded in the bottoms of his shoes from walking over discarded heroin vials.

Sherlock Scan / int_ccf875f7	comment	Since Criminal Minds follows a group of FBI profilers, this is a given. Hotch is on the witness stand being grilled by the defense attorney, who scornfully derides forensic profiling in order to discredit his testimony, concluding that Hotch "couldn't even tell what colour socks I'm wearing with any degree of accuracy." Hotch uses a combination of profiling and this technique to completely deconstruct the attorney and reveal that he's a gambling addict deep in debt, throwing in the colour of his socks for good measure. While this is irrelevant to the claims that profilers aren't as good as usually presented (which included several real-life failures of the technique) and faking it with techniques a carnival psychic uses, it does undercut the lawyer's argument that Hotch couldn't accurately profile him, and puts him in the position of either dropping that line of questioning or being forced to publicly admit to everyone in the court that he was a gambling addict. In another episode, Gideon tells a college student that the student's girlfriend (who isn't even present at the time) thinks he is about to break up with her, based on a necklace the guy is wearing. Later, it turns out that the girlfriend had very good reason to think so, as the student tells Gideon he has left her for another guy. In "Lo-Fi", Prentiss does a (we assume) very accurate analysis of a detective based on subtle clues, although she had been working with him for a little while before she came out with it. One item of note is his tendency to constantly hit on attractive women, except Prentiss figures out that he's actually a devoted husband, and the only reason he hits on women is because he knows they won't go for it. Had Prentiss taken him up on his offer, he would've immediately "run for the hills". In the finale of season 2, Hotcher tries this on Chief Strauss. It doesn't work because she's not questioning his skills as a profiler; she's questioning his skills as a leader.

Sherlock Scan / int_cdae0b41	comment	The main character of Forever, Dr. Henry Morgan, uses this and his position at the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner of the City of New York to assist Det. Jo Martinez in solving unusual murders. Secretly immortal, Henry developed this ability from observing human behavior for a couple of centuries. Henry's assistant Lucas notes to Jo that Morgan can sometimes tell what happened to a body even before starting the autopsy. But, as Morgan notes in his voiceover, he's had plenty of time to practice. Aside from having a long time to observe he's also had first-hand experience in dying. He can often tell at a glance what caused a death because he's probably been killed that way at least once. With his experience, it's fully possible Henry could rival Sherlock himself. In the first episode, Henry chats up a beautiful woman on the subway by greeting her in Russian, then wishing her good luck at her performance that night (she was a professional cello player on her way to the Lincoln Center). In "Look Before You Leap" he uses it to rule an apparent ax murder as accidental death and two apparent suicides as murders. In "The Wolves of Deep Brooklyn," when Henry is holed up in his basement after being tricked into killing a man , the trope is Played for Laughs when he explains to Abe that his (non-invasive, thankfully) autopsy leads him to believe that no, the trap didn't kill the rat, the rat fell from the bookcase and broke several bones, after which it crawled in agonizing pain—and stepped on the trap, but the fall is what killed it. Abe tells him to get back to work and stop "Sherlocking rats." Matt Miller has confirmed that if there had been a season two, there would have been a more explicit tie between Henry and the creation of Sherlock Holmes.

It's suggested that Atmey's deductions are based on obvious clues (like Phoenix's Attorney's Badge and Maya's distinctive Kurain clan uniform) and then he invents preposterous 'clues' to use as the supposed basis of his findings. Similarly parodied with Richard Wellington in the second game, when asked how he knew how the victim was a police officer. Made into an actual gameplay element in The Great Ace Attorney- unsurprising, since the trope namer himself is a major character. Of course, since Herlock Sholmes is something of a Cloud Cuckoolander, he'll often look at the wrong details or draw the wrong conclusions, requiring Ryunosuke to correct him. The final case implies that he's doing it on purpose to teach Ryunosuke how to do it himself. When he's on a time crunch with his old friend Yujin, his deduction is perfect on the first go and Yujin just checks his work.

Very occasionally he drops hints about how he figured some of these things out. He can also make very good guesses about someone based on their tastes in art or how they regard it. His Number Two, Pelleaon, speculates that this may be done just to impress people, and he does his actual tactical analysis privately. Either way, it's still impressive. In Star Wars: Kenobi, shopkeeper Annileen is skilled at evaluating a new customer by their purchases. Through what he buys, she can tell that Ben is a new arrival, didn't pack heavily on the way in, lives alone, and has a permanent dwelling and not a campsite, where he intends to stay long-term, and which needs to be heavily cleaned.

It's initially implied that Will's ability is the main reason Magnus hired him.

Hideaki, realizing that there's no external deformities and hearing from his cousin Lilly that Yamaku doesn't take mentally disabled students, makes a lucky guess that Hisao has a heart problem. Rin, however, using the same evidence, concludes that "The problem must be in your pants!" Jigoro references this trope, saying there was a time when you could tell a man's character just by a glance. Hisao, fed up with Jigoro's attitude, gives a snarky guess in his narration.

Sherlock Scan / int_f5e6b493	comment	The Thinking Machine: Although not Van Dusen's usual stock-in-trade (possibly the author was trying to avoid comparisons with Holmes), in "My First Experience with the Great Logician", he is able to deduce that his patient's name, address and profession; that he smokes; that he is wearing his clothes for the first time that winter; that he was widowed a few months earlier; that he kept house then; and that the house was infected with insects.

When chasing down a group of vampire hunters, Beckett comments that they must be in a monastery outside Santa Monica, because he found beach sand and smelled a very specific type of incense at the scene of their latest operation. When asked, he shrugs and admits that he didn't actually find any clues, he found a hunter waiting for a vampire representative to investigate and dangled him over the side of the roof by his leg until he talked.

Sherlock Scan / int_fe8ef766	comment	Steve Rogers pulls this off when he steps onto a SHIELD elevator in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The elevator fills up but just with what looks like regular SHIELD personnel on everyday business. However, Steve takes a quick glance around and notices things out of place, such as tensing hands and sweat, as if the people in the elevator with him are expecting a confrontation. When they get in, they make sure to move around so he's surrounded. Moments later, all hell breaks loose as the entire elevator attempts to subdue him (which they soundly fail at). Steve even offers them a way out as a way of demonstrating that he caught on before they realized it. As mentioned under the Fridge Brilliance section for Captain America: The First Avenger, when Steve wakes up in the simulated hospital room and the "nurse" comes to check up on him, he notices that the outfit she's wearing is off: her hair is down in a loose style that a real nurse wouldn't wear while on duty, she's wearing a tie, and the outline of her bra is the wrong shape for the supposed time period. The icing on the cake is that the baseball game being "broadcast" on the radio was one that Steve personally attended. Steve gives her a quick up-and-down glance to take all that in but, being a gentleman, only points out the discrepancy with the baseball game before smashing through the wall and several guards while making his escape.

Sherlock Scan / int_ff9ab17f	comment	In a Star Trek: The Next Generation episode, Data solves three Holodeck mysteries in seconds while imitating a Sherlock Scan, but in reality, he is simply recalling Sherlock Holmes plotlines that he has read. This prompts Geordi to ask the Holodeck to create a new Sherlockian mystery that will challenge Data, with disastrous results. Though it does turn out that Data is quite good at this even with original mysteries, to the point that he works his way out of Moriarty's Platonic Cave trap in "Ship In a Bottle". Though it's probably more amazing that the Holodeck was sophisticated enough that neither Data nor Picard noticed anything amiss until Data saw Geordi favoring the wrong hand. Data does this again in "Cause and Effect". The single clue he has time to send his future self to avoid catastrophe is the number 3 implanted in his subconscious—which the future Data is able to surmise (correctly) means that they should listen to Riker because he has three rank pip/pins on his uniform. As Data does as well—and Data is the other one making suggestions—he's making a pretty big leap of deduction based on a single number, although Data does have the advantage that he would know "Yes, that's how I would think if I had to send a message back to the past from X future scenario." He's much more self-aware (in that sense) than any biological being. Given that he's an android, he has also probably run thousands if not millions of calculations and probabilities on what that 3 could have meant in the span of a few seconds.
