Trivia

House: Nothing that the Golden Girls couldn't have handled in 23 hilarious minutes.

Referencing the NBC comedy The Golden Girls (1985), which ran from 1985 to 1992. It features four older women living together in Miami, including a mother and daughter, and comedy ensues as they deal with their personal problems and each other.

Goofs

House mentions that Dominika made a trip to Bosnia. Her character is from the Ukraine, and not yet being a legal permanent resident alien, if she had gone outside of the country, she would not have been allowed back in, and her application would have had to be started again from the very beginning. Being outside of the U.S. it would take about one to two years for her to have been able to return to the country.
