All this talk of the episode and no one mentions the Single Most Important Event in The History of “House”? The promo for next episode shows the PotW is: Lyle the Intern from Letterman. This is going to be _fun_. ---

My wife hates Cuddy’s bangs too, but I immediately noticed them and I like the new do. She says her nose is too big to have such bangs. ---

I didn’t realize how much I missed Cameron until last week. I like Chase as well. I don’t even know the other two new guys names, but they are pretty good to. I’m a little confused about the little balding guy. I thought he dumped his wife or something when she bought him a car he didn’t want. He didn’t dump her, he admitted he had cheated on her. Her giving him the car made him feel guilty enough to confess even though he had rationalized not telling her as being for her own good. Jonathan ---

Does it strike anyone else as odd that hardly anyone on this show calls another by their first name? I know it’s to be expected in a professional environment, but not even people who are supposedly close to one another uses first names. Thirteen and Foreman have been joined at the hip for the last two weeks by Thirteen’s count, but Thirteen called Foreman by his last name, not “Eric.” I know she was put out at him for risking his license on her behalf, but at the end of the episode, they were back in bed together. And what of Chase and Cameron? When they’re alone, do they call each other “Bob” and “Allie,” or even “Robert” and “Allison,” or what? The closest I’ve ever heard was when Wilson called Cuddy “Lisa” the other week, or the few times Stacy or House’s parents have called him “Greg.” One time I’ve heard House call Wilson “Jimmy,” but he seemed to be needling him. Do Wilson’s close friends call him “Jim” or “James?” There seems to be a distinct distance and lack of familiarity among people who have supposedly known each other and/or worked together for so long.
