The Evening of the Empty Chair

One drawing-room, one wax dummy, one enormous diamond — restore the night's choreography.

Count Negretto Sylvius has the Crown diamond and the nerve to visit the man hunting him. Holmes has a violin record, a wax double, and a bedroom door. Put the evening back in its exact order.
