| Synopsis:
When an old friend and former patient (guest star Joshua Malina) of Wilson's exhibits paralysis in his right arm, Wilson puts himself on the case. House wagers Wilson that the patient's symptoms are attributed to new cancer cells. Wilson accepts even though he is reluctant to believe the cancer has returned. With the help of the team, Wilson works to diagnose the patient more optimistic results, but when things take a turn for the worse, Wilson must address his inability to separate patient from friend. Meanwhile, Cuddy seeks advice in her search for real estate. |

| Customer Reviews: Heart Warming Episode December 28, 2009 Steven Stewart (Liverpool) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Season 6 saw a radical change in the way House operates both as a Doctor and a person. Since his release from the psychiatric hospital we have seen him wrestle with the demons of his past and try to change himself for the greater good. From the wide perspective House is generally the same guy he was prior to going into the hospital. He's still a self centred, egotistical genius; but in this episode and in some prior to it, we saw what was ultimately the new and open House. He is willing to admit when he's wrong and accept the consequences of it, he also expresses his honest appreciation for his long time best friend, Wilson.
This particular episode is very unique and is one that the show likes to do from time to time and that is present an episode from very unique perspectives. We saw the show present the perspective of a person "locked in" his own body and having to rely on House to get out the messages his patient strongly wants to be heard. This takes a different spin on that. It's as if, for this one episode, the show was named "Wilson" and in retrospect I suppose that was where they were going in naming the episode after House's best friend.
We get to see a day in the life of Dr. James Wilson as he struggles with the fact that one of his former patients who had previously been cleared of cancer see's the disease return. It examines just how Wilson deals with his patients, and although we have come to be familiar with the fact that Wilson appears to be a bit of a pushover, this episode gives us a clearer look at just why Wilson is the way he is. This former patient has remained a friend of Wilson's and the return of cancer has left him with a bit of a dilemma about where his real priorities lie as a doctor and a friend.
On the flipside, Cuddy is looking to move in with Lucas and wants Wilson to help her find a place. This is yet another superb test of the House/Wilson friendship and one which took the friendship to the next level. Prior to this episode I sort of had the perspective that if the opportunity were to ever present itself, Wilson would decide in favour of Cuddy over House. Not necessarily because they have a closer friendship, but because Wilson appeared to have a greater admiration and appreciation of Cuddy and the way she behaves as a friend and a boss.
Not much is seen of House in this episode nor are we treated to a particularly unique diagnosis problem. It is purely a Wilson episode and a show like this needs episodes like this to give us a bit of a break from the norm. A superb episode and one which helped start the season break on a high which left me wanting more. There is a problem though, and that is that I can imagine for the friendship and for House himself it's all downhill from here.
Turning Point December 3, 2009 RuthRoe (Florida) 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
We have ourselves a Turning Point. Now, we have to wait to see how many "twists" are about to arrive; which could rotate us back to the beginning, or could put us onto a new road altogether.
