Sherlock, who can literally break into any house and hack any computer, nonetheless has to resort to social engineering in order to get Marcus into a CLASS which is somehow the only hurdle for him becoming a U.S. Marshal??? I love this show, but this was a very funny conceit. And I really don't get how you call distance copying "teleportation" except that it allowed the nerd to be super nerdy and Star Trek about this.
