I thought he would punch House, too, until I remembered how they met. And of course, there was a bar with big bottles right behind him... The bottle through the window was funnier.

I suppose in one sense, this time it was Wilson bailing House out, by dragging him to the funeral in the first place.

I seriously thought he was about to punch House. And I have to admit, part of me kind of wanted him to.
I was gleefully shouting "punch him!" to my TV during that scene

At first I couldn't' tell who it was or what they were singing. Then when House said it was the Hansons and was his team's ringtone, it all came together.

Re: House: 5x04 "Birthmarks" - Discussion and Spoilers

Loved the episode because of the "bromance." House and Wilson are by far TV's hottest couple. I'm so glad they're back together.

The medical case didn't have enough screentime to have the impact it should have, but it was interesting and sad. It really suffered being the B-story to a much more pivotal A-story.

I love that Cuddy drugged House! Brilliant! And it was an awesome moment when the camera revealed Wilson was in the car, too. Loved their interaction. I also loved that House's eulogy made me cry...and then he bent down to get the DNA sample, which made me laugh.

Our TiVO cut off the end as well; glad I was watching it at the time.

I don't fully understand the Buddah.

There was a magnet in it that... somehow made it heavier the second time someone picked it up. And that magnet somehow effected the pins in her head?

If I understand/remember my physics correctly magnets get weaker exponentially from their surface. They shouldn't of had any effect on pins inside of her skull from a couple feet away.

Thanks, NX, pretty much what I figured had happened.
Glad I could help.

The next episode sounds good too.
Unfortunately I'll miss it. I have to moderate a local candidate debate.

Re: House: 5x04 "Birthmarks" - Discussion and Spoilers

This was the best House in a while. I was however, disappointed when House's moment of vulnerability at the funeral turned out just to be another shenanigan. The sarcasm and cynicism needs to go away from time to time.

Oh, and I hope the significant inclusion of Chase and Cameron in this episode continues. They are main cast characters FFS, they shouldnt be relegated to 1 line per episode or less.

^ I thought that there was some bit of truth to it, but I think that the ending was more powerful. I think the funeral got the ball rolling.
