Sherlock Holmes

The first scene starts off with a high pitched piano which we identified it as sherlock holmes's theme tune, as the scene follows it fades into a horse and cart riding through a street, it then fades to show sherlock planning his fight, the music suddenly turns cloudy as the scene turns to slow motion.
