How about when Cameron said to Chase “I’ll make it up to you”. Gave me shivers it did.
Can anyone explain exactly what was wrong with the patient? Or provide a link. I din’t understand any of it. Nose bleeds?

“It wasn’t so bad after the first nine or ten inches.” That self-catheterization had me wailing out loud and I’m not a boy.
Definitely House and Cuddy must have slept together: “You gave me everything I asked for because one night I gave you…” It actually makes more sense now, and his playing with her all the time seems less offensive to me.
Here is a list of episodes with links to the diagnoses. Cool! In this case, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia.
The patient didn’t mention his past addiction to vampires. I’m sure that would be medically relevant.
I usually love Cuddy, but the smugness didn’t look good on her.
He used to have a lot of nosebleeds, as did a relative. He had his nostril cauterized, but it caused problems much later on. Also, he had AVM (arteriovenous malformation) in at least one area, possibly more. They are abnormal clusters of blood vessels.
Apparently, all of this led up to severe interruptions of blood flow, among other things.
This isn’t the first quasi-serious reference to House and Cuddy. I had known they had done something in past from something in the first season. It wasn’t a major plot point but it did get touched on before.
Great episode. I opened the thread with a bit of trepidation but am glad to see most others agree in that it was a good/fun episode.

Cameron needs to work on the seductive moves. Putting your legs up on a desk is hot, but not so hot if you do it with your pants and shoes still on.
Did John, the Marine, impress anybody else as totally Not A Marine? For one thing, he had hair below his temples until he was trepanned. For two things, he complained like a, well, like a civilian.
Finally, in the closer, when Cuddy turns back at House and say, “And stop checking out my ass when you think I’m not looking,” she’s in an unbuttoned lab coat. How much ass do you see with that billowing around?
(And House, the “supertanker” comment was lame-o. You know and I know the lady has an ass you could bounce a quarter off.)
I vaguely remember some reference in the first season. Cuddy brought House in as they had worked together before. She knows he is essentially unemployable as he’s a miserable pain-in-the-ass drug addict but he happens to be an excellent diagnostician and she still has the hots for him.
I kept looking for Bertie Wooster’s rubber ducky when they showed House in his bathtub.
He had been back in the States for a while. Was it clear whether he was active or not? But he did have too much hair in House’s dream.
Riley seems to have spent most of his time since Buffy eating at KFC.
OK, so did House know that Cameron and Chase were in that closet or was he actually looking for a garbage can? Knowing House, along with Chase’s comment about him never cleaning up, makes it really unlikely that there was anything accidental about him discovering them. But typically they give us a hint at what steps he takes to deduce these things. I want to know what he saw!
Oh, maybe he’s just Omniscient
::d&r::
And was he smiling because he figured it out or because Cameron has (supposedly) moved on.
Figured it out. And even better, caught them at it.
The only thing better than that (for House) would be to get them to have admitted it before he knew for sure. But catching them is a pretty close second.
One thing I didn’t like about that episode was that they didn’t really explain how House dreamed about Riley BEFORE finding out he was going to be the medical mystery of the week. Sure, they explained why he was familiar- he’d seen Cuddy dancing with him three months (or was it years?) previous, but that doesn’t explain why he dreamed about Riley (as a soldier) before he saw Riley in the hospital.
I think they’re foreshadowing House appearing on Heroes next season as a brainiac and with some foresight.

I think Wilson pretty much summed it when they were talking in the bathroom at the start of the episode. A combination of coincidence and recognition. The whole army subplot of the dream was nothing more than coincidence like House supposed, it’s just figuring out how he could have seen him before that bothered him.
yeah, because how could a doctor working in a busy hospital, doing clinic duty, in a reasonably major city not remember every face he ever saw?
He’s terrible with faces, except for the faces on the people dancing with his honey.
But the thing is, they could’ve just had him wonder how he’d seen Riley before- the dream was completely unnecessary.
