They discover Sir Eustace, stabbed to death, by what appears to be Emelia, who then escapes through a broken window. A ghostly-looking bride appears and disappears in front of them, and the pair hear the sound of breaking glass, followed by screams from both Sir Eustace and Lady Carmichael. Sir Eustace is unco-operative, describing his wife as 'hysterical' Holmes and Watson stake out the house for the evening. Months later, Holmes' brother Mycroft refers a case to him: Lady Carmichael's husband, Sir Eustace Carmichael, received a threatening warning in the form of an envelope full of orange pips (seeds). When the bride apparently returns to murder other men, he deduces that these are copycat crimes. Confused, Holmes loses interest in the case. At the morgue, Dr. Hooper informs Holmes that the woman who killed herself, the woman who murdered Mr. Ricoletti and the body on hand have all been positively identified as Emelia Ricoletti. Fascinated by Emelia's apparent survival, Holmes takes the case. Later that evening, Mr. Ricoletti was confronted by Emelia, who shot him dead before disappearing into the fog.

In 1895, Inspector Lestrade arrives and presents Holmes and Watson with a puzzling case: Emelia Ricoletti, a consumptive bride, had fired on by-passers in the street from a balcony before fatally shooting herself. Holmes invites Watson to share his new flat in Baker Street, which Watson accepts. Watson is introduced to Sherlock Holmes by a fellow student of Bart's, and becomes interested in his investigative principles. John Watson has been medically discharged from the Army and moves to London. The plot revolves around Victorian England and the present day. The episode won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Television Movie, the first win of the series in that category. The story also draws on elements of original Conan Doyle stories of Holmes such as ' The Five Orange Pips' (1891) and ' The Final Problem' (1893). The title is based on the quote 'Ricoletti of the club foot and his abominable wife' from ' The Adventure of the Musgrave Ritual' (1893), which refers to a case mentioned by Holmes.

It depicts the characters of the show in an alternative timeline: the Victorian London setting of the original stories by Arthur Conan Doyle. The episode was broadcast on BBC One, PBS and Channel One on 1 January 2016. ' The Abominable Bride' is a special episode of the British television programme Sherlock.
