House -- "The Fix" -- 5/09/11

Synopsis:

Spoiler:
When House and Wilson bet on a boxing match and disagree over the outcome, Wilson gives him exactly one day to pay up or prove him wrong. House presses the boxer for more information to help prove his case and ends up attempting to breathe new life into the losing fighter's career. Meanwhile, the team begins to suspect House may have another type of drug problem.


Episode 21 of 23

Still has not officially been renewed for season 8. I read that if it does get renewed (which it will) season 8 will probably be the final season. It's the last season that Hugh Laurie is under contract for the show and as that story that was posted last week mentioned the show is getting too expensive to produce.

So House is an addict again all of a sudden?

Not all of the sudden. He's been using again for the past few episodes. Pretty much since he broke up with Cuddy.

Is he an "addict" though? Seems like what he was using last night wasn't really giving him a "high" like the Vicodin but treating his leg issue.

Pretty good episode. Liked that they are showing repercussions with House's dangerous behavior.

Right. There was some misdirection when they first showed him shooting up with that stuff, we were obviously meant to think he was using heroin. But he wasn't.

Sure, he wasn't on Heroin. But he is on Vicodin, and has been for some time. He is an addict, but it's not sudden. It was laid out quite well when Cuddy had her health scare. He's been showing popping pills consistently. This last episode I remember him doing at least 3 at one time (this is Vicodin we're talking ... you don't need 3 at one time).

So..... Did the trial doc cook up the medicine like house did before he gave it to the rats?

After finding out that he was taking a trial drug the "cook" scene killed the episode for me (besides 13 ruining every scene she's in).

As a person that takes pain pill there is a line between taking them and being a addict.

I do not take as many as he does, I did not know you could lose your hearing on it. I know I get pissed off more then I once.
