Well first I would like to say yay for Cuddy. All of the plots sort of tied together, and in the end, Cuddy is ready and willing to adopt a baby with the help from Wilson of course. Wilson and House playing games on each other I felt like it was a new beginning or chapter in their friendship. (i.e. Finally no more Amber drama) The Thirteen plot from her making out with another girl to getting fired and rehired was an amazing plot. Sort of picked up where last season left off. Huntingtons. Her continuing to spiral out of control in the end even after everything she went through in this episode sort of disappointed me. Oh well. Perfect 10.
13 or 31, she's not 2 bad hide show
Not a bad episode at all this one. 13 is not a bad character for the series, shes mysterious, shes pretty fine, shes got Huntington's, she swings both ways and shes a replacement for Cameron either way you look at it. And up to this episode I still hadn't made a decision if I liked her or not. So when House fired her, I was like "oh okay, didn't see that one coming...kinda wish she stuck around cos, well im used to her." The episodes plot itself wasn't mind blowing but it was decent in what it wanted to achieve, IMO being to make the viewer see a different side of 13, to accept her, if the viewer hadn't already.
OK enough about her, good to see the other cast members act marvelously again as always. The ENDING tripped me out though, with the whole House being mute and not even congratulating Cuddy on her good news. I mean, cmon really? HOPEFULLY will be explained in upcoming episodes hey its interesting indeedy. :)
Thirteen self destructs... hide show
Although good in places, this was one of the weaker episodes so far of Season 5.
Althought I am not a Thirteen hater, I do prefer Cameron and her dilemnas that Thirteen's. Nevertheless, it was interesting seeing her previously composed character self destruct and House fire her (albeit temporarily). It seemed House was trying to teach her to bond with her patient- I love House's teaching methods.
The idea of the girlfriend was also good, and it added a new dimension, but I have to agree with other viewers that this was a ploy to boost ratings- a disappointing side I haven't seen them use so before.
House and Wilson are back, and House hires the P.I temporarily to try and find out what hes hiding. Although I found his character interesting, he seems pointless now- he lost a lot of interest now Wilson's back, and seems a flat character! Where was his fancying of Cuddy, for example? It seems like the writers gave up on the idea.
Overall, however, it was a good episode- just a bit of a drop from the previous couple.
Ok...why does everyone hate 13? hide show
I find this whole dislike/hated of 13 a little weird...yes she was in the episode an awful lot but this wasn't a bad thing. I thought the episode was interesting...how it focused on her troubles and how she's losing control. I liked how House was analysing her...so I don't understand why people aren't warming to her as a character. A little strange really...
I like her relationship with House...he wants to know about her and she knows it. I won't deny that she can sometimes be similar to Cameron but then if we can't have her...then why not have 13? She's a good actress, an interesting character. However House is the highlight of the show...he never fails at being funny with his comments about 13 or Wilson.
Him and PI have provided great scenes...loved the ending as well. We find out Cuddy is adopting...House's face was priceless...was he sad, confused or what? Finally Foreman realises he's really boring...! Great one.
Another good episode hide show
In this episode of House the following happens. 13 spends a night with a girl, who then has a seizure and is rushed to the hospital. Cameron meets them at the hospital and when 13 is asked the patients name, she says that she doesn't know it. House admits the patient, who soon confesses to 13 that she followed her to the bar and only slept with her in order to get to House. She tried to set up a met with him before but was unable to do so. We see learn that 13's condition for Huntington's disease is advancing and House fires her for coming to work after pulling an all-nighter at a night club.
We soon find out that Wilson is now dating someone new, who used to be a prostitute. All of the team want 13 back, but House is still against it. The team discover that the patient has a condition called LAMB. Houses P.I. goes through Wilson trash and finds needles in there and believes that Wilson is using drugs. Of course House knows that this is not the case, Wilson knows he is being watched and lies about the new girlfriend and planted the needles himself. LAMB of course turns out not to be the right diagnoses. They soon learn that she has a condition, which is not life threatening. House follows Wilson and we soon learn that Cuddy is there and she is adopting a baby.
