*** This review may contain spoilers ***

Not one of my favorite episodes, "Humpty" sees Cuddy's overworked, asthmatic handyman falling off her roof and exhibiting far worse effects than the fall and a mild case of asthma would seem to indicate. Cuddy plays a prominent role in the story as it unfolds, as she feels guilty for having pushed the guy too hard. The solution to his illness is a bit far-fetched, and the fact that he is an illegal and there are litigious implications in his treatment only serve to complicate matters. And cause me to quickly lose interest. Be advised: the episode contains some rather graphic amputation footage. At the very least, "Humpty" plays to my feeling that not every patient should be able to just get up and walk away at the end.
