| Just because your positive for the gene doesn't mean you have the disease. And that was the most heart wrenching episode I've seen yet on House. I don't know why either, maybe it's the acting or the script but something made me get emotional. |

+13 Internets | I was a little disappointed tbh. The first episode was far more powerful, but the 2nd didn't really deliver, it just kinda coasted in. Seemed a weak way to go with the nothing they could do scenario. How often does that actually happen in a house episode? All the innuendo that they might have been having an affair or fling is wasted as well. All fine and good the first time through, but watch the 2 episode again and how much is it weakened by that red herring ? Poor Wilson no longer has the love of his life. And his GF died too 8( |

+9 Internets | I liked the fact that he didn't as I think it would be out of character even for house, and when he admitted how much he cared for Wilson in his Bus Ride/Coma with Amber, it would have made even less sense for it to happen. I think they pulled everything off perfectly personally. |

| Anyone else notice the Larry Craig wide stance by House? And the Obama tag I think it could have been that said "Vote for change" in the other stall?

+4 Internets | I laughed pretty hard at the "Sorry, wide stance" comment. I'd have to say these are two of the best, if not the best, back to back episodes I've ever seen of House. I have been complaining for quite some time (see my comments on the episode with the guy who was always happy for the most recent) that they need to humanize House more and stop making it so that he is ALWAYS right when he says that people are not normally happy, everyone is selfish, etc. Well, I got my wish last night, and I have to say it was absolutely the best thing they could have done to his character. He was genuinely sad and knew he had fucked up, and on top of that, which no one has mentioned that I've seen yet, is that he blatantly countermanded "smart" orders because Wilson asked him to. While it isn't exactly spelled out, it pretty much shows that he would do anything for Wilson if it meant enough to Wilson. He just normally doesn't because he knows it isn't important even if he pisses Wilson off for awhile. Wilson has always made the show for me, in that he juxtaposes House (obviously House IS the show, but you know what I mean) perfectly, so for it to finally flip around a little bit and show just how much House needs Wilson was fantastic for me. I actually felt bad for both of them during that episode. A+ episode, and wonderful season finale. |

+14 Internets | Why did House fuck up? He went out and got drunk, had his keys taken so he called his best friend to get a ride. Instead his best friend's Girlfriend takes it upon herself to go get him in I assume some attempt to control house in some other way. Did we forget that these two don't get along? The attraction innuendo aside? So she got on the bus cause he forgot his cane and died because of it , or rather because she was taking flu pills. Why would Wilson be pissed about this? It's like Kumar said,thats' the way things go. The House put himself in the chair and risked his own life to save hers which proved to be fruitless and damn near killed him and now House is the bad guy? He fucked Wilson over? I don't get it. I didn't mind the episode or anything but I certainly didn't liek that Amber broad and I had no feelings what so ever about her dying, it was a tool used to bring another property to the viewers in regards to Houses personality. We already knew he cared about Wilson before hand, we also know he is pissy pants because his leg hurts. It wasn't some sort of a revelation outside of him actually admitting it to himself. That's all he was doing, Amber there was just a vision in his imagination. We all now how fun caring Happy House is since we went through that already last year. They aren't going to try and pull that conscious shit on us again. |

| Because she DID die because of House. If you recall, because the bus destroyed her kidneys, they weren't able to flush out the medicine. She got on the bus because of House. She died because of House.

| So you're saying that House is responsible for the bus getting into the accident? No, seriously, you're claiming that a drunk person taking the bus is liable if the bus gets in an accident? |
