Quotes
Dr. Gregory House: I like being alone. At least, I convince myself that I'm better off that way. And then I met someone at a psychiatric hospital of all places. She changed me. And then she left. We're better off alone. We suffer alone. Doesn't matter if you're a model husband, or father of the year. Tomorrow will be the same for you.

10/10

This is such a unique episode

It's not exciting, thrilling or heartbreaking like the other House episodes I've given 10 stars but that's the point. This episode just goes to show even in a calm and relaxing environment, an episode can still be perfect. Only great writers can accomplish this.
