House is back, people. I mean it, this new episode was one great Halloween treat and I didn’t even have to get dressed up in a silly costume and knock on my neighbor’s door to get it. The old House with this witty, sarcastic and downright rude behavior to everyone he comes in contact with has returned. I’ll be honest; I was a little worried after watching the first four episodes of the season. Although that didn’t stop me from watching them on TIVO six times each over the post-season baseball hiatus… have I mentioned I’m obsessed with House?
As usual we meet the patients of the week who are Mr. And Mrs. Dawson, a young couple who get caught in the middle of an armed robbery and attempted rape at a diner. I have to say while the action was exciting and I was totally into it, when they panned passed the pie display case in the scene, I found myself wondering how good the pumpkin pie was… IN FAKE DINER LAND, yeah I’m sick in the head.
So Mr. Dawson, Jeremy, tackles one of the robbers when he gets distracted but stops bashing his head in when he realizes his wife, Tracy, is gasping for air and might be dying.
House comes into his office, as ornery as ever, which of course I love, but isn’t really interested in poor Tracy’s throat swelling as he’s spied Wilson flirting with the new peds nurse, Wendy. She’s a looker in spite of the fact that she’s wearing a pretty lame hat. I’m not sure who does wardrobe on the show, but they love putting the cast in hats.
