Announcing
Speculation Sweepstakes for Last Episode of Season Four of House MD
Many, many speculative theories have arisen about what will happen in the season-ending episode of House MD. daisylily asked me how many I've heard, and it's been... a lot. So, why not have a contest, sweepstakes style?
Losers are required to produce a small creative offering for the winner: write a drabble, sketch a picture, create a macro or icon, or just screencap a favorite moment from the episode.
Winner or winners get all the goodies, plus a banner proclaiming "I Won Wilson's Heart*! *Speculation Sweepstakes". Unless the winner does not want to have won Wilson's heart (looking at you, IHC), in which case they will get an autographed* picture of their favorite House actor/actress *autographed by me.
The 50 speculations below may or may not be based on spoilers. I have not marked which parts are spoilers, so you may cover your ears and LA-LA if you don't want to know ahead of time. However, if seeing something in the episode that was speculated here will bum you out, read no further.
