Continuity mistake: In the title sequence a Rube Goldberg machine can be seen. The error can be seen by watching the four revolvers rotating and then a single revolver firing. When you look at all four revolvers, there are hand grips in each one, but in the closeup shot of one actually firing, the hand grip is empty. You can't see it later than S5E18 because they decided to delete the frames when you can see all four revolvers, and left only closeups.

Chosen answer: M broke into the brownstone and left a note. Holmes deduced he was staying at a high-class hotel from the soap scent on the note, and gave a picture from a hidden camera to his "irregulars" on the street to stake out hotels. One of them saw him, so Holmes followed him to his next intended victim and knocked him unconscious with a baton.
