If only he would stop bringing up that name. Moran isn't interested in resisting anymore, is fine with just going along, because he's fairly certain now they'll put him in jail. If Moriarty were here -- God, but that pains him to say -- then he would get Moran out of this mess with two telegrams, but Moriarty is not here. Moriarty has lost, and Holmes has won.
He glares them both down as the constables lead him away. Lestrade says something or other to them, agrees with Holmes's readjustment of the terms of arrest. That doesn't matter anymore.
He wants to plot revenge -- yearns for revenge -- but Moriarty had been clear.
