  • Euforia mostra o ápice da série na temporada.

    9.7
    "Superb"
    By CyberfoxKL, May 24, 2011 Report Abuse
    Este foi o primeiro episdio duplo de House, Euforia mostra o pice da srie na temporada. Durante a metade da temporada para c, podemos perceber a srie tentando fugir um pouco de sua frmula clssica, o que tambm rendeu episdios espetaculares, na verdade uma seqncia deles.

    Nunca comentei aqui sobre as performances dos atores, uma porque se fosse comentar sobre a performance de Hugh Laurie, teria que faz-lo em todos os episdios, outra que nenhum outro ator teve uma performance fora do normal, que chamasse a ateno (pelo menos nos episdios que eu resenhei). Falei isso s para destacar neste episdio a fantstica interpretao de Omar Epps (Dr. Foreman). Todo o processo dele portar a doena, o desenvolvimento dos sintomas e nas partes onde via o que conseqentemente acontecer com ele, vendo a degradao do policial pela doena. No seria surpresa nenhuma se ele tivesse sido indicado ao Emmy pelas performances nestes dois episdios.

    Foi outra bela abertura e novamente lembrou as sries policiais. Um policial perseguindo um fugitivo com um carro e depois a p. O policial pede para o bandido colocar as mos na cabea, ai ele comea a rir descontroladamente e a fazer piadas bizarras. Num momento de distrao o bandido saca sua arma e atira no policial. Um efeito especial bem legal na hora do tiro, a bala ao atingi-lo lana trs estilhaos dela: uma ao lado de seu olho esquerdo, outra em sua bochecha esquerda e a ltima em seu pescoo no mesmo lado. Agora a parte realmente estranha: mesmo ferido ele continuou rindo.

    O pai de Foreman est orgulhoso de o filho ter sado no jornal (pelo artigo), mas como ele prprio diz, ele no est orgulhoso dele, ele est orgulhoso de Jesus. O clima entre o Foreman e a Cameron no foi esquecido e estar presente no episdio.

    Ento realmente comea o diagnstico. House apresenta o caso: policial com senso de humor. A euforia no foi causada pelos fragmentos. House ento manda Chase e Cameron fazerem exames no paciente, enquanto Foreman (como sempre) faz a busca na casa do paciente. House vai at a delegacia.

    House se aproveita da situao para resolver alguns problemas que tem com multas. Ele sabe se aproveitar de sua deficincia quando quer. E quando a parceira do policial o olha meio que no querendo o ajudar com as multas ele fala:

    Aps a visita House diz, ele tem a doena dos legionrios, devido a m conservao do ar-condicionado da delegacia. Foreman vai casa do policial, um verdadeiro chiqueiro. Foreman sai pegando amostra de tudo. Ele descobre que no fundo da casa ele mantm uma plantao de maconha, tudo muito bem montado com sistema de irrigao e tudo. Os pombos no chamam a ateno no momento.

    Todo o processo do Foreman foi devidamente descartado com a descoberta de House. Mas ai que o segundo estgio da doena se manifesta: a cegueira. Voltaram a estaca zero. House ento no v outra soluo a no ser fazerem uma ressonncia magntica com contraste, mas devido aos fragmentos da bala em seu crebro, todos ficam contra (porque os fragmentos seriam atrados pelo campo magntico e destruiriam o seu crebro).

    Os pupilos de House resolvem fazer uma angiografia, prontamente desencorajados por House, que pede para eles o encontrarem no necrotrio. durante este procedimento que Cameron desconfia das aes de Foreman com o paciente. Ao chegar no necrotrio e ver o House procurando entre os cadveres, Chase pergunta o que ele est procurando, ento leva um resposta bem engraada do House:moreless

    "Perfect"

    I thought that the episode was great from beginning to end and that this was an excellant way to finish up the two part series. What the aftermath of Foremans condition is going to be is still uncertain, but the end of the episode left me with a lot of unansered questions and an uncertainty about the future of Foreman as one of the members of Houses team. I loved the twist at the end, always leaving open doors and new mysteries is something any television show should strive for and I thought this episode was one of the bets written pieces for House. I didn't think the episode was as comical as the show usually is, but House went to the clinic for a funny scene or two and the scenes with Cuddy are always funny. All in all this might be one of the best House episodes to date, wonderfully written from beginning to end.moreless

    This was one of the best episodes of House that I have seen. It's the first time that it has actually made me well up. The emotion between Cameron and Foreman as she was about to put him under was brilliant. The way Cameron shouted at Cuddy. Foremans dad making an appearance and showing the way that his family are and finding out about his mum.

    I feel that this episode and the previous had everything that a good episode requires, Emotion, Adventure, Excitment, Sadness, Fear and Happiness. House has quickly become my favourite program and episodes like this are the exact reason for that!!moreless

  • Part 2 what happens to Foreman

    9.9
    "Superb"
    By Slayergirlkal, May 24, 2011 Report Abuse
    This was just so much better than the first part. I loved how Cuddy kept sticking to protocol. It was so annoying yet so amusing all at the same time. I loved all of the scenes with Cuddy in this episode.

    I loved House in the clinic. Who would think that the little kid was doing what she was? House was so nice when he was talking to her too it was kind of scary to see House acting so nice. Then Cuddy coming and yelling at him to leave the clinic was even scarier! Cuddy is always yelling at him for not doing his job in the clinic!

    I loved House trying to use Foreman's dad to manipulate Cuddy. It was classic House. I loved how Foreman's dad acted and reacted to his son's condition. He was so religious and he believed that his son shouldn't be afraid of death. I liked the angle with House and Mr. Foreman it was interesting.

    I loved that Foreman chose Cameron to be his medical proxy. I loved how House didn't want to believe that Cameron was in charge and then Cameron vs. Cuddy. I loved how Cameron got all angry at Cuddy since they needed to cut into Foreman's head because Cuddy wouldn't let them cut into Joe's head.

    This was such an amazing episode I loved it!moreless

Trivia, Notes, Quotes and Allusions

  • Trivia

    ADD TRIVIA
    • Instead of doing a white matter brain biopsy, why didn't House just biopsy the brain tissue that was associated with causing the euphoria? If the disease had attacked that part of the brain then there might still be remnants of it there. Edit
    • Foreman is diagnosed with primary amebic meningoencephalitis. This disease is fatal in over 95% of cases and the few survivors all suffered severe and irreversible brain damage. As established in dialogue, Foreman's brain damage is from the biopsy and otherwise he's fine. Edit

    ADD QUOTES
    • Dr. Cuddy: If House tries to interfere, let me know and I will take care of it. Dr. Cameron: Yeah. You're a hero. If it wasn't for you, we'd be cutting into a dead guy's head instead of Foreman's. Edit
    • House: Stop asking me questions based on the premise that I'm wrong! Edit
    • Dr. Foreman: I can't breathe, I'm dizzy, and I can barely hear anything over the sounds of my lungs cracking. Dr. Cameron: That's the legionella. Dr. Foreman: Wow. Did you figure that out from the symptoms, or from the vial of it tossed into my room? Edit

  • Allusions

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • House: You're upset that I'm doing clinic hours? Wow, that is so like rain on your wedding day. "Rain on your wedding day" is a line out of Alanis Morrissette's song, Ironic. Edit
    • House: Ooh, Level Three. You should call Jack Bauer. This quote alludes to 24, a drama to which House has been compared. Kiefer Sutherland plays Jack Bauer an anti-terrorist agent who every season has the worst day of his life. Edit
