TV Review: House - "Top Secret" - Page 4

Part of: House

Foreman catches them playing hooky when they're supposed to be monitoring the patient's sleep patterns, though Cameron craftily uses the truth to distract him – that they were having sex in one of the sleep rooms.

Foreman: House'd do Wilson before you'd do Chase.
Cameron: No, you'll do House and Wilson before I'd do Chase. Now can we get back to work?
Chase: She did me once.
Foreman: She was stoned!

Poor Chase. To make things worse for him, House, who's guessed their secret, "accidentally" catches them in a supply closet, saying he was looking for a larger garbage can. "Since when does he clean anything up?" Chase moans. In an episode full of expressive smiles, the one on House's face as he walked back to his office was the evil smile of future tormenting possibilities. If she was hoping to get caught to make House jealous, Cameron's hopes might have been dashed to see it.

So House ends by saving his patient, fixing his pee problem, blissfully ignoring the possibility that the Vicodin is harming his health, and gathering ammunition against Cuddy, Chase, and Cameron. All in all a good day's work for him, if you ignore the fact that the Vicodin is harming his health and he continues to have social skills a 12-year-old boy might be appalled at.

    I assure you that no man wanted to see that catheterization scene, either. Maybe even less than you did, actually.

    Good write up Diane - hope you've dried out from all the pee. That was one wet episode.

    I usually find myself able to watch most of House's gross medical scenes, but I couldn't watch during the catheterization scene. Too much urine in this episode.
