In this episode, Foreman and Chase have to own up to the death of James Earl Jones in the previous episode, while treating a young boy who seems to have no hope. The father of the boy is distraught, fearing that his financial success has lead to his son's immenent death: karma. In one fell swish of the pen, he signs away his entire life, every dollar, and then House miraculously has his trademark epiphany [while making a Grinch reference!], and the day is saved.
There was a scene with Thirteen in the cab, and the cabbie gets upset with her for not trusting him. I liked that part. It's true: you never know who the other person is, and sometimes, maybe you should give them the benefit of the doubt. It really sucks how Chase has to keep lying to Cameron [I say Cameron because it really bothered me in the previous episode how he kept calling her his 'wife'. Okay, sure, they're married, but really, everyone knows who 'Cameron' is, so you don't need to say 'wife']. It was also funny when she called him Robert.
House is still the same old biting character, but not as biting, which is mildly annoying... But he has good depth and he's still as interesting as ever... if that makes sense.
Watching Chase trying to own up to his crime was so sad!
Something I've noticed: WHY DO THEY ALL HAVE FIRST NAMES FOR LAST NAMES? It's not like I'm just figuring this out now, but, Chase, Cameron, Wilson, okay, that's really it, but it's still very annoying. It makes hearing their first names even more awkward.
All in all, a nice episode, but I wasn't as connected as I was last week.
