Frankly, it would surprise Peter more if Sherlock didn't have his home's security system recording all the calls he makes; having such advanced technology at his disposal must make that very easy. And probably more secure.
"I'm under instructions to inform you that if there's any difficulty during Obadiah Stane's impending visit while Sherlock is out of town, you're to contact us for assistance."
Peter considers hanging up, but sheer curiosity keeps him on the phone.
He does reach for some reports that need looking through, though. Things in the house have settled considerably since the funeral, but there are still just barely enough hours in the day to get almost everything done.
"I'm fine," he says. "It was just a mild concussion." It is not at all a shock that the former Mr Chandler couldn't even manage to knock him out properly.
