Words and Deeds

David Morse is an amazing actor, and it makes even easier to hate Tritter. The man is much more unethical than House and has started a witch hunt that has by far gone beyond the original goal to make House regret what he did to Tritter in the clinic. And when it seemed the situation will lead to an end, Tritter shows clearly how much a son of a b... he is...

I'm still watching the show and don't know how it is going to end, but I agree this kind of extra-patient conflict is very interesting to keep the show from being boring. A long time in season 2 this element was absent and House M.D. lacked punch.

Really? A bleak jail cell? Seriously, if this is supposed to be representative of a rehab center that a successful doctor would go to then I can only imagine what us "PO folks" would have to endure. It is a ridiculously stupid, stupid episode. Not even comedic. Unfortunately it seems that some TV series just run to many years. It starts out great. Fun to watch. Clever. And after five years or so it just totally goes downhill with stupid and ridiculous, horrible writing, stupid plots, dumb characters etc. There's only been a few TV series that actually successfully went from year one through year 8, 9 or 10 and was good all the way through. House is unfortunately not one of them. And scrubs is another example. Absolutely could not get through the last 2 years....it was horrible. Such a cute, clever, fun show just plummeted down the hill. And House tumbled after.

The case that is featured is one about an overly aggressive firefighter who collapses after leaving a burning building. There is something very odd about his illness because it seem he goes into convulsions when his partner shows up.

While this is being investigated, House attends his hearing. But he is his usually recalcitrant self, leaving the courtroom to take a phone call (the aforementioned case).

The hearing has an interesting ending. But House learns nothing from his actions. He continues to pop his pills. It's hard to believe he could be taking that much Vicodin and be able to stand.
