She's a licensed therapist. I don't know that she's given up the dominatrix gig, she may just have a day job.

Cool. Thanks, Vortex.

I'm so far behind on all viewing. I'm up to here: I didn't capture the end of the long House (where a gunman takes House, 13, and others hostage to force someone to diagnose his illness). When my recording device cut off, 13 had been injected with something that looked like it had put her in a coma, lying on the CT machine, only then she sat up and started talking. Cut to black. What happened next?

What happened next?

It's been a while, but House gets the gun from the guy in order to do the CT, but he gives back the gun so he can continue diagnosing. In order to get another drug to try, they have to release another hostage, and House tries to get the guy to release 13. Instead, House gets shoved out the door, and there's a nifty scene where gunman says he has to inject 13 to test the drug, but it will probably kill her. And then 13 realizes she's not that hot to die and she begs him not to inject her. He decides not to, injects himself, collapses I think, and the cops storm the room.

13 is taken off, the gunman is hauled away, he and House stare at each other, House makes a "So how do you feel?" gesture and the gunman nods.

13 wakes up in ICU with Foreman sitting next to her, and she says she wants to try the experimental Huntington's program.

Cuddy goes into her office and is amazed at the damage. House comes in to get his cane. She gives him an "I was so worried" look, and he shrugs. Some talking, and she asks, "Do you want this to be some sort of relationship?" and he says, "God, no."

He leaves and she sits down and fiddles with her desk. We then discover that what House was doing was turning her center desk drawer upside down so that when she pulls it out everything falls out.

Oh THANK YOU So. Much. Connie. Wow, that's a lot of character progression for 13, Foreman, Cuddy & House in the last 10 minutes! I'm so happy you guys are here!

Heh. If she had pigtails, he'd be dipping them into his inkwell.

Yeah, he only truly harasses the ones he loves, ie, all the pranks on Wilson when Wilson was living with him, countered by Wilson sawing his cane partway through. Ther luv iz so pur.

As much as I enjoy and even love The Mentalist, the flashbacks really blow, what with the choice of soft light and blurry focus. I feel like I'm watching a daytime soap.

"Charlie Crews said "Don't worry""

My heart fucking melted in that moment.

I'm not hating a moment of this ep of Life. Except that I'd wished they'd utilized Rachel better before shipping her off, but that has nothing to do with this particular ep, only the build-up to it. Does Roman make everything better? (Even though his evilness really skeeved me out last season, since he was so evilly evil that it was beyond the realm of anything else seen in season 1. Glad he's back, though).

eta holy shit, they shot my Charlie! Just as Dani was about to get her answers. Also, why the hell save the best show for the break? And I'm not talking about cliffhangers, since 1) they can't kill Crews and 2) they made a point of him still being alive in a way that's usually saved for the copout of part 2.

That was just excellent.

Excellent.

Garrett Dillahunt is such an excellet villain.
