Well, crap. I hate the idea that there might be an impediment when House is in need ;-)
Actually, I'm guessing the wall was always there and that we've never seen it due to camera angles. It makes balcony-architectural sense that the wall was always there if those are really balconies, but up until now, the general feel has been one of a terrace, upon which a dividing wall would make no sense at all.
Now, given that it looked like a terrace, wouldn't it be just like Cuddy to have a wall built out there to turn it into balconies so the doctors can have a sense of their own space?
[innocent look] Origins-of-the-wall. Plot bunny, free to a good home.
I just love the fact that Wilson burns his light out every two weeks. Wonder how long it takes House? ;-)
Where Wilson is concerned, I imagine House carried a case of red bulbs in his trunk or the storage compartment of his new bike, for daily replacement.
I had it all figured that Cuddy moved Wilson to that office because she wanted Wilson to be available to handle House--no halls/doors/walls to get in the way. I hate it when they mess with my wank ;-)
And you know--they cut two lines from the light bulb convo.
Wilson: So what happens when it's not only my thoughts that are impure? House: That's when *my* light goes off
Someone needs to explain the last two scenes to me. They felt vaguely creepy. Otherwise, yeah, lights! too cool.
Very interesting episode, too. That whole thing about his doping actually saving his life. Chase is still getting the sharp side of House's tongue (err I mean that . . .oh never mind). Poor duckling
Well, I'd rewatch it for purposes of catching some reference to the fact that Stacy is in therapy, but I forgot to set the DVR timer and do not have the ep recorded, woe is me.
I read in some other livejournal that there is a reference to Stacy in therapy with piqued House's interest. I think he's completely messed up in the head about his own feelings for her (anger? guilt at punishing her too much? not enough?) that he wants to find out what she's thinking about him, and of course asking is out of the question because everybody lies, so reading her therapy records is a way to find out if there's any hope for their "relationship," as if Stacy moving on and gettin' hitched isn't enough of a clue.
Anyway, I think the last two scenes were an acknowledgement that while there's plenty of feeling there, we hopelessly lovelorn women in the audience (who only tune in to watch successful women bag a man in the workplace, otherwise how would we know they're successful?) shouldn't be too heartbroken when special guest star Sela Ward's contract is up and the character leaves the show with her lawfully wedded husband.
