We've got rectal bleeding. All 3 of you?
House whipping out the Mandarin the second time the little girl tried to scam him

It was nice to see a little comprimise by House (We can't cure being a bitch) and Cameron learning a lesson in the roommate keeping her GF via guilt.

Another awesome ep.

excellent. very good characterization and plot. never expected the black plague. loved the ending too; showed how real people are, which is of course, disappointing but honest.

You got to feel bad for Cameron. Her idealism is being crushed episode after episode.

Great episode. A little predictable with the setup on the girlfriend, but great stuff nonetheless. This has to be the most misanthropic series ever.

The line about House having new respect for the basketball player Cameron dated in college was priceless.

Good stuff. The lack of Wilson was disappointing, though.

This episode was brutal. All-around antagonism between Cam and Foreman will produce some good future fodder for stepping up each other's game. House and the Mandarin, loving it.

Does anyone know how long this show will go on for? It's one of the few that I consistently like week after week.

That line just came out nowhere - it was perfect!

Foreman was great at the end w/ his colleague line and non-apology. He should have just hit Cameron upside the head w/ a sledge-hammer. She looked as if she needed a good cuddle.

There's a few more episodes this season. That said, the show will probably go on until a) Hugh Laurie leaves the show or b) it drops dramatically in the ratings. The show is currently Fox's highest rated scripted show, nearly 8m more on average than their second highest (24).

Is it just me...or is there some kind of back storyline developing (besides the odd couple thing)

They are trying to make foreman look like a asshole..for some reason...Not sure which.

Damn that line was funny! Why do they have to go and make Foreman such an ass? he's one of my favorite characters. On the other hand it's always nice to see Cameron taken down a peg.

i wish they would bring in more outside characters, like someone from cameron's life or a former resident would be interesting.

I think the producers got her infected to make the show more believable.

What a fantastic episode, and an amazing show!. I just love the almost violent idealogical conflicts between the characters, and this new Foreman/Cameron beef is only going to pump up the tension.

Could anyone post the line from House about Cameron? I was only half watching that part of the episode. Thanks.
