Not sure how I feel about it. House making trouble was hilarious and totally in-character. Some of his later behavior struck me as less in-character. I'm still not buying last season's hallucinations as being solely from drug use. I'm mad at Wilson for not being more of a presence. Best thing about the ep was definitely Dr Nolan and the House/Nolan ( Read more... )
