LOL House is going to call out his dad for being an abusive douchebag at his dad's funeral. That owns. ALSO THAT INTRIGUING NEW BIT WAS NOT VERY .GIFFABLE. :annoyed:

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

Ooh, what's the intriguing new bit? *is at work*

[big dramatic voice] HOUSE WILL REVEAL A SECRET HE'S BEEN KEEPING FOR 40 YEARS

Wilson: "Don't do this."

[dramatic closeup on House giving eulogy]

Nothing we didn't know really, they just showed more of it lol.

[eitherwayokay.livejournal.com]

yeah, House being honest all the time. By the way has anyone ever seen someone standing so close during an eulogy (who is not even a relative)? They are so married.

I bet the throwing-bottle-thing is Wilson's reaction. I bet he knows nothing at all about House's past. Which is unbelievable sad.

[magie-05.livejournal.com]

Plus House's Mom goes, "I don't care that you didn't like him," which...huh. Interesting. Cannot wait!

[lostwiginity.livejournal.com]

Seems House's mom is a badass who doesn't care what people think or feel... like House. :3

[eitherwayokay.livejournal.com]

So it seems she

didn't know what happened between them

closed her eyes when it happened

perfectly knew what happened and is all about "we can't risk his reputation, he's dead anyway"

The second and third option would make me sick, the third would make me feel even sorrier (does this word even exist?) for House because then there would be noone that loves him at all.

[bishojo-kitsune.livejournal.com]

Man... I'm really starting to wonder exactly *how* much House's mom knows.

[suiciderunner.livejournal.com]

*SQUEAL*

[greeblygreebly.livejournal.com]

And now I'm kind of not liking House's mom. Thanks show. Any other characters you want to ruin and/or make me love and then kill off? STILL HAVEN'T FORGIVEN YOU FOR KILLING THAT GUYS DOG. AND WHERE THE HELL IS STEVE, HUH?

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

You don't know for sure who the "him" is! House could be bitching about his dad's best friend being a jerk when House was young, and Blythe could be saying "I don't care that you didn't like him, you're sitting next to Arthur."

Promo monkeys like to be sneaky, is all I'm saying.

[greeblygreebly.livejournal.com]

You are so right, I shall with hold my Blythe dislike..for now. *casts a warning glance in her direction* *shakes fist at Promo Monkeys for good measure*

I'm sick and tired of all the Huntington's angst!I thought when her test results came back positive in Wilson's heart that would be the end of it.Apparently I was wrong.She's perfectly healthy right now and it will be YEARS before she starts showing symptoms!I just can't understand why they make such a big deal out of it!

[slutersaurus.livejournal.com]

Look, I'm no 13 coddler. I feel like TPTB made her bisexual because Fox got such a shitty rating for GLBT visibility. It means nothing for her character except a few throwaway lines about dating ladies. So far, she seems like a less interesting version of Cameron, and as a H/W shipper, I think it's pretty evident how I feel about Cameron.

That being said, Huntington's is a pretty big deal. If she's having trouble dealing, that is entirely realistic. Firstly, there's no way to know how long she has. It's usually based on when your parent who also had Huntington's began showing symptoms, so if her parent had it early, that means she probably will too. She might not make it through her thirties for all we know. If that were me, I'd be goddamned terrified.

Huntington's is an incredibly shitty way to go. You lose muscle control, making it difficult to swallow on your own, let alone walk. Cognitive ability and memory are also severely affected. One thing we do know about 13 is that she's a feminist, and that she prides herself on being independent. Huntington's would basically be the slow, terrible loss of everything she takes pride in herself for, leading to a messy death by pneumonia, heart failure, or worse. There's a reason that Huntington's patients have a high rate of suicide.

We don't know if 13 ever wanted to have children. If she did though, it would be a 50/50 chance that her kids would suffer the same way she inevitably will. For this reason, people who know they are Huntington's positive are often advised not to have children. Maybe she wanted to have a family some day. This will also affect her approach to romantic relationships, because if she pursues a relationship, she knows that she will die a horrible, slow, expensive death. Not only will her significant other have to watch her waste away, but who's going to pay the hospital bills when she can't even feed herself or go to the bathroom without help?

So... That's basically why it's a big deal. I hope they develop more how knowing about this will affect her life.

[xantemortemx.livejournal.com]

Word on this.

[purple-panacea.livejournal.com]

Is anyone else weirded out by the fact that the only GLBT character on the show just happens to be doomed to an early and very horrifying death?

[nekyia-11.livejournal.com]

LOL XDDD So true

[piepeloe.livejournal.com]

Cuddy: If there's anything I can do
House: You're right, I don't think I can sleep alone tonight
CUT TO: House and WILSON!

Yay for the promo monkeys!

[smartamy15.livejournal.com]

LOL. For once they do something right.

Icon love, by the way. :D

[leaveout.livejournal.com]

YAY, I didn't even look at it that way. Wilson won't let you sleep alone House.

[smartamy15.livejournal.com]

Gahhh, something tells me that this big "40 year old secret" isn't going to be House's love for Wilson; more like something that's obvious and not all that shocking, sadly. I'm thinking of abuse or neglect, which is of course very sad and explanatory in many ways, but not what I was hoping for.

What is really intriguing is why Wilson is throwing something, who/what he's throwing it at and the context. How are they going to fit all of this in one hour?!

Heck, House's mom could be saying "I don't care that you didn't like him... at first, but you love Wilson now so you've got to accept that and take charge of your life!"

[deelaundry.livejournal.com]

Gahhh, something tells me that this big "40 year old secret" isn't going to be House's love for Wilson;

Because Wilson's younger than 40?

It would be kinda cool, though, if House has loved Wilson since before Wilson was born. "... in the womb, I knew you." ♥

[smartamy15.livejournal.com]

Hahah, I was referring to the fact that House would be about 5 or 6 when this "40 year old secret" began. Same train of thought.

D'awww, love since existence.

[chickloveslotr.livejournal.com]

Ahhh Blythe WTF!?!??!

[lostwiginity.livejournal.com]

Where you gonna get a ho from on a Tuesday at 9 pm?

[theunknownsoul.livejournal.com]

you know how these 'secrets' go. Promo man is just easily excited.

I still say Daddy abused him (sad) or something completely and utterly stupid that has nothing to do with the plot. Though it's hard to think of a 40 year old example.

[lostwiginity.livejournal.com]

How would his dad abusing him have nothing to do with the plot?

[theunknownsoul.livejournal.com]

I said OR something random x) The abuse thing WOULD be relevant. That's just my prediction but I have a high high record of being wrong.

There are a few clues floating around from past episodes that hint House's dad may have physically abused him at one point though.

[eitherwayokay.livejournal.com]

I think the way his dad psychologically treated him was much worse, because it ruined his whole self-esteem (even if he pretends to have the biggest ego on earth). He spends his whole life to prove him wrong. We don't know what else he did to him. And yes, I am talking about sexual abuse. Not that I would assume that FOX would dare to touch that subject (they are conservative cowards in any way).
Maybe now that his dad died he has the liberty to live for his own goals. If he still knows what they are.

[viquetoriana.livejournal.com]

Yay! Mama House! Where's the hate coming from? :D I don't think there was anything wrong with what she said...

I can't wait to find out the secret. I'm not expecting anything too big, so I'm limiting myself to the milder anticipation/excitement that comes from simple curiosity. I just don't want to get high hopes dashed. XD

And I really can't wait to see what sets Wilson off like that. I kind of hope he is aiming for House, just because I'd love to see him finally going off on him. Even if it's an extreme reaction--which I guess it would have to be, considering how long overdue the explosion is. LOL.

I can't wait. It's gonna be so jam-packed and angsty and... aw, man. :D

[lostwiginity.livejournal.com]

I checked cos I didn't believe that a woman that young could have a 50-year-old son, but the actress who plays House's mom is 70, so she could actually be his mom.

How the hell do you look like *that* age 70!?

[mbcorp.livejournal.com]

Oh god. I hope the secret has nothing to do with sexual abuse.

[drunken-kurage.livejournal.com]

Maybe its just me, but I think her "I don't care that you didn't like him..." bit might be over House not wanting to give the eulogy or something.

And if the "secret" is about his dad beating him or some shit...Didn't we find that out like last season or something?

[eitherwayokay.livejournal.com]

yeah, we know about that and Eve from "One day, one room" knows but probably nobody else.

I think is because House refuses to lie in the eulogy. And I am afraid (no, wait, I think his dad deserved nothing else) he does tell them his true feelings but not the reason. Maybe that is what sets Wilson off. And then he tells him the truth. He has nothing left to lose anyway.

Obviously it's JUST me who doesn't think House's father was some kind of überbastard when House was a kid. I don't think House is all that different from his father; and I don't think John House was all that bad to House, I don't think House was abused; and most importantly -- I DON'T think it relevant, I don't think House is suffering from some kind of angsty childhood. I just don't find it very likely. His father being tough on him and his father ABUSING him are way different things.

I don't think John House was that bad.

That's MY belief and I'm sticking to it. :)

Because I'm sick of antiSue-House who's got this boo-hoo-überangst-childhood..

House isn't a character to feel sorry for. He doesn't hide in a shell because he's shy, he's JUST that cool! Independent! He can deal with things without going all DRAMA over them (except when it's about Wilson of course... cuz then it's ALL about the drama)

Just saying. My thoughts on this.

[eitherwayokay.livejournal.com]

Well, I bet, it is all true and that we haven't even seen a third of it all. There's no way someone who had a happy childhood has so severe trust- and boundary issues.

And I think I don't have to say how high the number of people with a personality disorder is, that where abused during their childhood. There's also usually a reason why people become drug-addicted or alcoholics. And yeah, I believe that children are born innocent, blame me for that.

And House is everything but independent.

[lilyargent.livejournal.com]

Hey guys, I just saw something that I guess I missed in the first few promos. House and Wilson are standing over the hood of the car and the police office says "James Evan Wilson, there's a warrant for your arrest in the state of Louisiana." Wtf was Wilson doing in Louisiana?
