新宿是东京仅次于银座的繁华地带，人口最为密集，充满了混乱气息。一天，突然有人大叫“小偷”，一群追赶的人们把小偷抓住，剥开衣服，只剩一条兜档布，腹部露出樱花纹身，追赶的人们都说“服了”，全都倒立起来，事件随即演变成“现场剧院”的表演宣传。一个叫鸟男的旁观者走进新宿车站附近的一间书店里，偷了几本性科学和人体美术书，被店员梅子扭送到老板处。鸟男在被抓时还在不断的偷，并说“我差一点就要射精了”，被抓后鸟男也丝毫没有认罪的态度。老板对鸟男偷书的选择很赏识，反而拿钱叫梅子陪鸟男上餐厅。两人一起看偷来的书，互相挑逗，当夜作爱，但很不成功。次日，两人请教性科学家，露骨的关于性爱的讨论和场面不断出现在银幕上，但两人兴趣索然。为刺激性欲，两人去偷看艺妓作爱，这些人为了帮助这两个缺乏性经验的男女，假装要强奸梅子，却假戏真做。深夜，梅子在书店把一本本有趣的书堆起来，每拿一本书，画面就出现作者的肖像，并朗读一段章节。后来。两个人加入了“现场剧院”的“期待扰乱戏剧”，梅子用月经模拟出剖腹的样子。此时，新宿街头的年轻人开始投掷石块。影片最后，反日共派的全日本学生自治会大联合的学生们在反战日袭击了新宿车站。

In court for murder, Professor Moriarty is released seconds before Holmes arrives, too late, with vital evidence. Free again Moriarty vows to Holmes that his next crime will be so fiendish and amazing that Holmes's reputation will be finished. Moriarty sets about a fiendish plot involving the crown jewels and a series of mysteries to distract Holmes's mind.I enjoy most of this series as they all seem to run to the same formula. Here the plot goes back to basics and adds more of the mystery and less of the comedy. The plot is an enjoyable battle of wits between the two great minds. The downside is that the side-mystery that Moriarty sets up takes up the majority of the time and the two don't cross swords as well as they do in a gentlemanly beginning. The mystery surrounding Miss Brandon works OK but not really great as you know the whole time who is behind it and why. The jump to the crown jewels is too easily made and is a bit of a letdown.The comedy is less evident than usual but is still there. However it is overwhelmed by the more serious side. Bruce still does well but I was glad that he stood up to Holmes more than usual – telling him off for treating him like a child and such like. Rathbone is a good Holmes but his logic was off here and I wasn't as impressed by him as I usually am. Zucco is an interesting foil, but doesn't get enough time to work here. Lupino in an early role is interesting but a little too heavy and tads to overplay her tension a bit.Overall this is an OK addition to the series. The plot is reasonable but focuses too much on the diversion than the central characters and the reduction in comedy makes it feel a lot heavier than usual.
