# Show Notes — A Scandal in Bohemia (Part 1)

## Summary
In this episode, we present Part 1 of "A Scandal in Bohemia," the opening story of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's *The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes*. Dr. Watson pays an old-fashioned visit to Baker Street, where a mysterious masked visitor — soon revealed as the King of Bohemia — hires Holmes to recover a compromising photograph held by the beautiful and formidable Irene Adler before the King's royal betrothal is announced. Along the way, Holmes delivers some of his most famous deductions, from Watson's seven and a half pounds to the origin of a sheet of Bohemian notepaper.
