It's blatantly obvious to even Stephen's self-centered eyes that Wilson's upset about this whole thing with House. While Stephen can't help feeling guilty about it, he decides to fight the urge to go see House about it -- without a doubt, that would only make things worse.
With plenty of time on his hands now, he decides to do something about Wilson's mood at least. It's a no-brainer to order from the Thai place down the street -- there's no way that his being in the kitchen would produce any good.
By the time Wilson's due home from work, Stephen set the table nicely -- romantically, even, if he were inclined to think of it that way. Tossing out the empty containers, he grabs a bottle of wine and sits back to wait.
He'll improve Wilson's mood if it kills the both of them trying.
