8.04 - Risky Business

[menolly_au]

I have to ask, did anyone besides me find the final scene where Adams smashes hell out of the orthapedics office with a baseball bat while House watches with a satisfied smile a little...disturbing? Especially in the context that he has just got out of jail for committing a violent act because he was angry at his ex-girlfriend (drawing a parallel between that and Adams violent anger at her ex-husband). I mean obviously Adams method of letting out her anger was better than House's but still...As Adam's method was given to her by House maybe it's supposed to show how much progress he's made or something...

I don't know - I think I'm annoyed at the idea that it's a great thing to destroy expensive, possibly life saving, medical equipment because you're angry. Maybe it's just me, most people seemed to love that scene...

And then there was House about ready to punch the orthapedics doctor for the sin of...doing his work in his own office? There seeems to be a theme of punching people out in this season. Yeah, the orthapedics guy was a bit of jerk to House but House was more of a jerk to him (borderline assault to shine a light in someone's eyes and deliberately make them ill in my opinion)

I don't really want to grouch on this season, it's at least heaps better than last season, but this episode left me feeling...uneasy.

I agree! I feel more uneasy, I mostly feel disgust.
