Yeah, your daughter is all sorts of awesome.

Words cannot express how happy I was with the last five minutes of the episode (or how anxious I am to get screencaps of the last five minutes of the episode :)

Cuddy bringing a broken House to the one person that can help was probably the biggest OT3 moment of this show's history. I loved how they paralleled House thinking that Cuddy was the solution to all his problems in the last episode with Cuddy bringing House to Wilson in this one.

Such high hopes for next season.

Aww, thanks. I think so, too! :-)

Agreed. I can't wait for the screencaps, either!

I don't think I would have been happy had Cuddy NOT brought House to Wilson. It was, IMHO, Wilson's obligation (maybe too strong a word?) to be the one to take House to Mayfield.

I love Doris Egan. She hit a home run with this episode. I am also anxiously looking forward to season 6. (Can't help but think that there are going to be some "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" moments next season!)

Don't they?

My daughter absolutely loves House. She thinks he's hysterical, but she also has a great deal of compassion for him.

Smart kid.

We're a lot alike.

I try very, very hard to be alone when watching something emotional, so I watched it the first time by myself. I tend to be very stoic in front of other people, and it's rare that I will show much emotion publicly.

But I watched it again with her, and it was just as difficult to watch the second time. When I saw her start to cry, it made me even more weepy.

My daughter LOVES House. She thinks he's funny and sometimes "evil" (a word she uses for everything), but she's much like me in that she sees him as a tragic figure who deserves compassion and understanding, and deserves to be loved.

Tadpoles named after House et al! How cute!

I can see why some of the graphic scenes would bother the kids. (Personally, I think they're not nearly as bad as the scenes in the CSI franchise, but they can still be pretty gross.)

That's pretty cool, though, that they know who all the characters are.

Lindsay's been watching House with me since the second season. It's so much fun to talk to her about it (which she loves to do because she thinks House is the funniest guy on earth) because unlike other friends and family, she doesn't think I'm a whackjob for being so obsessed with Hugh and House.

I managed not to cry, but it was a close thing. My stomach is still in knots. It was great though.

It's still with me, almost a day later. I can't stop thinking about that final scene and the sad looks on House and Wilson's faces.

Wow.
