Answer: Mary’s gentle charm and her request for help draw Watson personally into the case.

Mary Morstan comes to Baker Street with a strange problem: her father, Captain Morstan, disappeared years ago; she has received a pearl every year from an unknown person, and now a letter asks her to meet at the Lyceum Theatre and bring two friends. Watson is attracted by her grace, sincerity and courage. When she asks Holmes and Watson to accompany her, Watson gladly agrees and becomes deeply involved in her case.
