I don't even know how I can begin to talk coherently about this episode. 

Point form, because I really don't think I can express myself well enough )

ramblings, rant, speculation and musings, post-ep thoughts

I totallyagree thatthis should have been prepared much longer. Still, better thanCuddy's crazy turnaround in S5 finale. I had to stop reading midway because I missed the warning for spoilers (I prefer not to watch the promos). Please don't take this as a criticism, Ireally don't mind a few words, also anywaymy heart is too full.
Ijust finished watching and I just want to watch it again.
Thank you for helping me see the problematic parts of this episode, because, really? All I could see was Wilsoncryinginthatgoddamn car. Which was crashed in a field last week.
PS Sorry for the spaces, I don't work well with the iPad spacebar and my husband is kept awake bythe sound of the keyboard and it's late here.
Yes, I'm incoherent too.

Haha, literally all I remember from last night was the fake-patients scene (which I found very touching in a Housian way), the dinner scene, and the car scene. POTW? What's that?

I'm one of those people who's (usually) willing to let the problems go in favor of just enjoying the Hilson (though said problems do make me facepalm a lot of the time). But I understand why others would find them very bothersome/annoying.

Re: the car - the one that crashed last week was the 'vette. This was Wilson's regular old Volvo.

I think I was looking so much at them that I didn't see the car. Also, iPad. ;) Thanks!

There was something in the POTW that I found very disturbing, but I'm still processing that - I did very much notice him, though.

What did you find problematic in the POTW? I only saw him as a plot device to show the negative effects of repression and how such emotions and feelings are manifested in (literally) unhealthy ways. Much like House’s repression of his feelings manifesting in his blow-up at the patient and the whole toilet thing.

I used to be able to let these problems go when I wasn’t such an avid viewer. Then I stopped lurking around the HW comm and started getting engaged in discussions… And it was shot to hell from there.

I really wish the patients weren't fake. It actually struck me as quite a House-The-Romantic thing to do.
But I could do without the clapping and the standing up and staring meaningfully at Wilson. I would have preferred for House and Wilson to 'stumble' upon expatients when they're out somewhere.!

I felt so sad for Wilson when he said his patent cried for him :/ I really liked his conversation with Thirteen.

This is possibly the least illuminating promo of all time. You're not missing anything with this one :)

It really was the most vague promo I've ever seen...

Oh dear I’m so sorry I didn’t put a warning for spoilers! Like the rest mentioned, it really was the most vague promo ever. Totally slipped my mind. But yes, Wilson and House crying in a car. My heart. It's in pieces. Whenever RSL cries a part of me dies. And then there was House tearing up. I can't take this!
