Man, you just seriously made me miss old school House, back when he had a heart. I just got in and saw your entry and turned on USA and it was Who's Your Daddy--the part where he's stabbing the patient and breaking her finger. That was... jarring, feeling all sentimental only to tune in and watch him be a sadistic bastard.
Remember though, he behaved badly enough (in Wilson's eyes) that he called him an ass. I'm just focusing on this part. And in Who's Your Daddy, isn't that the one where he chose to NOT shatter the naive friend's beliefs? And, in his own twisted way, kept the guy from making a mistake years earlier by uh...well, yeah, House is an ass. LOL
Yeah, he didn't tell Crandell that Leona wasn't his daughter, but I think in his twisted way that was not just him being nice, but letting Leona take advantage of Crandell too to teach him a lesson.
I did love House telling the massage girl to stop when Cameron came in, 'cause "she ruined it." Hee!

Really? I thought that was House feeling a teensy bit guilty over what happened years back and trying, in his weird way, to make amends. Of course, that would be "make amends inside his own head," because Crandell never knew he got screwed over by House back then, and wouldn't know that House fudged telling him the true results of the test now. In his own way, House is honorable.
But it brings up the question, if a tree falls in the forest, does it make a sound if no one is there to hear it? The entire manipulations are viewed and justice given completely inside his mind. And while he tells Wilson what he did in the past, there's no indication that he tells Wilson what he did in the here and now to atone. So he didn't do it to look better in Wilson's eyes. Am I making any sense? LOL
And notice how Autopsy is so exquisitely painful, we're switching to an easier episode to discuss? ;)
