OMG! You're not kidding!
We need details! We need signals! We need the scripts! We should all try and get the scripts from ebay (like 1 each different one or something) analyze our own script and come back here to see it it'll help us with timelines and such!
WAIT...
Could Greg and Stacy last 3 years post infarction?!? If they could (with the guilt and the screaming, oh and the longing for the curry, lol) this could explain away the blip in the data, Greg is hired to head new specialized practice post infarction (and out of Lisa's guilt). Still doesn't explain why Greg in Three Stories pretty much calls himself a drug addict before the infarction.
I'd still like to know why they didn't show at least a glimpse of James looking concerned for Greg. I mean, hello, he was apparently there! And how come we don't have any indication of how long James knows anyone, other than the fact that he was around when the infarction happened? Which by the way, according to my timeline in my head, happened a year after his brother disappeared off the streets (if you take the infarction as being 8 years ago (1997), and the disappearance 9 years ago (1996)).

I'm going to need my very own white board.
See I think the infarction happend the last year of the relationship (like 1999). It just seems to make more sense that way.
But what was with Stacy telling Greg in "Humpty Dumpty" that he "owes Cuddy that much.." (something to that effect). For me that always implied something about his leg and Cuddy hiring him.
But see that wouldn't make sense if she hired him around 1996...eek the writers probably don't even know either.
and GAH about James' brother disappearance. Did Greg say he knew James then? I've forgotten completely.
*falls down from too much thinking*

Yeah, that seems to make more sense. Having a year of guilt and screaming and "Greg you need to confront your feelings," fits better.
But what was with Stacy telling Greg in "Humpty Dumpty" that he "owes Cuddy that much.." (something to that effect). For me that always implied something about his leg and Cuddy hiring him.
For me, that implied something else. Cuddy lets him get away with a whole lot more than any other head would. She knows he gets results, so she lets him have free reign. Maybe Greg hasn't been that greatful about it?
eek the writers probably don't even know either.
Thats probably on a count of the writers only knowing where the story is going about 2 weeks ahead of everyone else and they probably don't have the luxury of reading past scripts to make sure timelines are ok. Wasn't it the case with Chase's age where the writers realized, whoops he's too young, he couldn't be where he is at that age, we better make him older? I think I read that somewhere. Yikes I read way too much on this show, lol!

Not specifically, no. All we know is that James didn't tell Greg at all about his brother's disappearance, which doesn't tell us anything on timelines of friendship.
AHHH!

"That was 5 years ago..." So the infarction HAD to have been the last year.

Probably that too. I was just thinking the whole leg angle because of where there conversation was probably going.

And this is why need to hire us so we can GIVE THEM THE DAMN HISTORY!!!!
They've given us so many "dates" that none of them make any sense except for the 5 years of relationship and the 5 years after the relationship...and um...*takes out House Dvds to watch them again*
Yeah I believe they said Chase was like 30 then he was 26. Or the other way around.

Isn't there a year gap somewhere in there? GAH!!! I'm making my brain hurt once more. And what episode was that? Was it Damned if You Do?

LOL! Well, its good to know where your mind is at the moment!
Apparently, I don't even need to watch episodes anymore to giggle like an idiot, I can just look at pictures! Partly thanks to my friend's comments re. HL, but thats another story! *stiffles laughter from icon as she is in study carrel supposedly researching/writing*
*snickers are your icon*
That is the genius of the Fry and Laurie boys! They need to write a Fry and Laurie reunion special one of these days. Hey they could do it over the summer after House and QI are finished filming!
