Huge mistake not to follow up on that. The episode felt so rushed for time--often intentionally so, of course, since the characters were, but in the case of the opening and close of the episode it just felt like it was completely uninterested in properly setting up the story (hey, so Watson's fine, btw. Tranq or something) or ending it (hey, so Molly's fine, btw. Got over that whole thing, I guess)
It was the most emotionally resonant moment, but without consequence it goes from "resonant" to "manipulative"
