Gregory House is a brilliant man, a genius, but in some ways he can be enormously stupid. He is always searching for his answers, for reason behind actions, and sometimes his obsession with everything fitting into a perfect little box means that he misses out on important things. Like, for instance, Kutner’s depression leading to his suicide a few episodes ago or Cuddy’s behavior in the season five finale of “House.” After miraculously detoxing in one day last week, House and Cuddy finally ended up in bed together and he is still glowing the morning after. This might be the happiest and most settled House we’ve seen on the show, so of course it means he is about to be screwed over in some way.

The patient of the week is a man named Scott who had surgery on his brain for seizures, and it left the two brain hemispheres separate from one another. They cannot communicate and his right brain thinks it is hilarious to mess with the more dominant left brain. His right brain is awesome, except when it decides to hit his girlfriend. Not cool. Scott’s kidneys are failing and he’s bleeding from the eyes, plus he sweats heavily and his heart is creating clots all over his body. Poor Scott, especially considering his doctor is much more focused on getting into Cuddy’s pants again. The girlfriend is the one who comes up with the diagnosis this week - for real - and points out that the right brain/left hand freaked out at her when she brought him his ultra-strength deodorant. It also hit her right then too, so maybe it is trying to tell him that the deodorant is dangerous. The right brain then touches her with its hand in a sweet caress. Awww … that’s kind of creepy.
