Molly cannot ever remember feeling so relaxed on what is essentially a first date. And a first date with Sherlock, no less. Maybe it's because they've known each other for ages and she knows she doesn't have to censor her topics of conversation in any way with him. Conversation is easy and fun. It's almost like they're having lunch at the Bart's canteen except she's way overdressed for that and the food is about a million times better.
By the time they get to the Opera House, she is giddy, almost like the first time her parents took her to the ballet when she was a child. Not only is she about to watch what is sure to be an extraordinary ballet, but she's got the smartest, most handsome man in the building on her arm. The looks they receive from some other patrons do not get by her. Sherlock is a mini-celebrity in the city and it's not like he tries to blend in. But instead of feeling intimidated, she feels confident, like she belongs.
"Sherlock! These seats. They're in the first row of the grand tier," she says as she looks down at the tickets he's handed her to hold while he checks their things. Those are arguably the best and most expensive seats in the house. She has never seen a ballet or theatre performance from there.
