Ethics be darned
10 September 2006 | by (Connecticut) – See all my reviews

It's amazing how little cursing but so much blood and gore are featured on HOUSE, especially as the mood darkens on the show in the second season. This particularly graphic episode deals with a young woman in need of a new liver, and the issue of whether her girlfriend should donate a piece of her compatible liver in light of certain private information House and his team possess. Absolutely nobody comes off looking good in this episode, and this includes the two women, both of whom are painted in less than flattering tones. The always-idealistic Cameron learns a hard lesson by tale's end, but it's for the better. Roomies Wilson and House by now have become the new Oscar and Felix, and their sophomoric antics help lighten things a bit.
