The CIA wants House to treat one of their agents. No word yet on the fate of the remaining hopefuls, but I thought they’d be paring down to the lucky (?) three by now. ---

Alan continues to defend the woman who murdered her child’s killer and uses the temporary insanity plea. I don’t get to watch the tape of this till the next day, so until then, please jump in and continue the party without me. ---

No way. I don’t want to share the _House_ thread with those _Boston Legal_ people! 😉 ---

Pretty good. Nice to see Michael Michelle again (I remember her from **Homicide** ) and I’m glad she seems to be sticking around. I also like that there were two parallel stories; it allowed for more concentration instead of dragging everything out. ---

I hope she gets beat down and gets her stethoscope took. (It’s a Homicide:LOTS ref, before anyone gets offended.) 😛 ---

Okay, that was unreasonably stupid. Outrageously stupid. Fantastically, unfathomably, Oliver-Sachs-Can-Write-His-Next-Book-About-It stupid. Doctor Grumpy poisoned the patient? To generate interest in a bogus polio cure? Hmm - what’s that smell? Could it be … shark? Best jump over it, just to be safe. ---

Anybody else notice that the “true” POTW was a racecar driving girl whose father bore a resemblance to real life father-of-a-racecar-driving-daughter John Force? ---

Fun ep. I never figured Bush Clinic Doc would want to stick around in House’s clinic anyway. He wants to be out in the remote, more dangerous areas, so there he goes. ``` "Lazy ass called in sick again. I could give him a message." :D "cutthroat bitch" in the cell phone contact list: brilliant. ``` Did you folks catch the little shout-out to Jeeves and Wooster? ---

“Who the hell did I leave in charge?” All: “Foreman.” “There was a reason for that. Listen to him next time.” ---

Everything hitting the fan (supposedly) when House left was very cliche. Having the doctor get the patient sick was pretty silly as well. They didn’t need a new doctor for House to flirt with. ---

“There’s a position open on my penis” That totally surprised me. ---

Well I really enjoyed this episode, faults and all. Maybe because it was just So Much Better than last week. I miss Chase though. ---

Thought it was a good episode over all - I like that House didn’t change his overall approach/attitude when he was not at his home field. Only question I have - the CIA patient ended up with ‘Selenium’ poisoning (from the Brazill Nuts) - shouldnt that have shown up on the initial Heavy Metals toxicology? ---

I thought this was one of the stronger episodes so far this season. Loved the Wilson baiting heroin from Afghanistan thing. ---
