Tell Me Sweet Little Lies
Updated 2006-01-27 16:00:00
The doctors are finally figuring out what House has known for years: everybody lies. Meredith lies to Cristina about still being hot for McDreamy, and Cristina returns the favor by lying about moving in with Burke. Cristina also does a number of awesome things in this episode, like getting in McDreamy's face about the way his behavior is affecting Meredith; learning how to stop worrying and love the Burke; and totally beating Alex and George in a hot-dog eating contest inspired by a competitive eating patient. Unfortunately, the actual competitive eater has torn her esophagus by downing one too many wienies. Meanwhile, George bonds with a sassy elderly woman who refuses to leave the hospital even though she's been discharged, because she doesn't want to go live in a nursing home. Alex, after waiting nearly the entire hour to open the letter, finds out he's passed his boards. Bailey goes into pre-term labor and is put on bed rest, but not before she reminds the interns that she is still watching each and every one of them. And Fool and the Gang devise a way to get rid of their pesky dog -- by giving it to Addison and McDreamy.
