1. Wait, didn’t the mouse virus destroy his liver? The PotW apparently got all better with meds alone, no transplant. Hmmm. 2. There were several shots where the PotW’s viewpoint changed quite a bit. But he couldn’t move his eye muscles, let alone his neck muscles. Very distracting. 3. Obligatory “House” thread rant: Kuttner and 13 need to go. ---

**ftg** : There is strong speculation elsewhere that Kutner is going to commit suicide. Others believe Taub will – with all the setup about his financial worries and House calling him worthless this week. If Wilson goes, I will be gutted. Yes, Thirteen is intolerable. ---

I’ve been reading that as well - the posts I’ve read say that the event is “totally unexpected” both in timing and who - which means it cant be Taub - I’ve also read that it is definitely Kutner - only thing I haven’t seen definitively is when - I assume Finale - and that is one ‘formula’ that I find annoying ---

“Locked In” was actually the first episode of “House” I’ve ever watched, as it happens. I’ve seen enough over my wife’s shoulder to know the basics of the show and to know that the patient point of view gimmick was unusual. It caught my curiosity and I ended up staying around. I doubt I’ll become a regular viewer, but I enjoyed the episode. It occurs to me that the first episode of “ER” I watched was similar. It involved a father and son in a car wreck and primarily featured their point of view. I remember the dad was played by a comic actor, but I can’t remember who it was.
