Broken Arc Syndrome

And it all comes down to this: House goes before a judge who will decide if the state has enough evidence to charge House for his various felonies. He finally realizes that he's in a real bind and, after some prodding from Cuddy, apologizes to Tritter. But Tritter says he trusts people's actions, not their words. So House actions himself on over to rehab, where he professes a belief in the higher power of André the Giant and enjoys arts and crafts. He even apologizes to Wilson for the past few months of crap he put him through, although an apology to Cuddy does not appear to be forthcoming. But even rehab isn't enough for Tritter, and House's case continues. Until, that is, Cuddy is called to the stand and she totally lies and says those drugs House stole from the dead guy were sugar pills. And even though the judge hates House, she has no choice but to let him go -- after, that is, he spends a night in jail for contempt of court, where Cuddy tells him off for forcing her to save him by lying on the stand (not so loud, Cuddy!) and Wilson realizes that House has been paying off a rehab worker to sneak him Vicodin this whole time. So he didn't change as much as everyone thought he did, and that is great news for the rest of us. There's also something with the Patient of the Week where the only way to save him is to zap all of his memories of his love for his co-worker and brother's fiancée -- along with his memories of everything else -- away. They do this, and then it turns out to be completely unnecessary. WHOOPS! That's what you get for strangling Cameron, I guess. Anyway, to sum it all up: House is still on Vicodin, Cameron is still a sap, Cuddy is still awesome, and Tritter is GONE! Rejoice!
