The posters up in the boy's bedroom were odd. It was a mix of sports stuff and theater stuff. I don't remember all the shows, but there were posters for both Rent and Annie. He seems a bit young for Rent, and it seems like exactly the sort of show that his mother would be keeping him away from. But Annie? I grew up with a bunch of theatery kids, and did not know a single person, male or female, who had an Annie poster at any age older than about 7.

Did House figure out by the end that Hadley and Foreman are still together? I wasn't sure, with the comment about the shoes.

I thought he was still just being nice, and still dumb. Guess coming off methadone was a good idea after all.

This weeks episode of House killed me ded, and my allergies may have even acted up a bit when he through his cane into the dumpster.

I thought he looked at Foreman when he said it, so I thought he knew.

I don't care about Dr. Hadley. Ever. Not even a little bit. Foreman did need to get some, but I'm completely over (ugh) Foreteen. Even without methadone."I'm that good," And I think the parallel they were trying to draw between the boy's gender identity and Hadley being bisexual(which is imo, becoming her "Lana's parents are dead." No, duh, really?) missed the mark by more than a little, at the risk of sounding like a white guy coming out of Boyz N the Hood in '92 all "Dude, I had no idea..." but maybe I'd give any Hadley storyline the stinkeye at this point, what with hating her and all that.

Was House happy after ketamine? And slow?

He was happy because he could go jogging etc. He seemed mentally with it.

Yeah, he seemed into his returning physical ability, but not stoned at all. Could he try that again?

Do we have any evidence, other than House's opinion, that he was really out of it? I mean, one of the crew suggested that test, didn't they? And they weren't going to do it, but then the parent asked for it?

It seems like House is beating himself up for not being superhuman. Which, you know, is pretty much normal House.

That's true, compared to what? They should have kept that storyline going for a while...they keep introducing challenging things and then rebooting or something. I get not wanting to mess with a hit, but fandom is feeling cheated.

I'd like to see a continuing effort for House to kick the drugs and get back to normal, and to see how much of House is the pain or is just him. Could the various relationships survive the trip, and is his brilliance tied to his viciousness? Would he have to choose the burden to keep the gift?
