Blackwood and Coward realize their plan has failed. Blackwood manages to get away while Coward is captured.
Holmes gets Adler on top of the incomplete Tower. Holmes tricks him into becoming entangled in the ropes and chains, hanging over while Holmes recounts the technical trickery behind all of Blackwood's supposed magic. A loose beam falls off the bridge supports, causing Blackwood to fall and die by hanging from the chains.
