House M.D.: Help Me (2010)
Season 6, Episode 21
9/10
The foreshadowing was there

Warning: Spoilers
Most characters in television series are static and unchanging; the individual we see in season 6 is the same one we knew in season 1. TV is like that, for various reasons.

I saw the foreshadowing of the last scene episodes ago, when Lucas shown to be irresponsible and just not there for Cuddy, who is a mother now and who doesn't need an adult child to care for. I did not think the show would have the guts to actually grow up House into more of an adult, but they did. Little hints were dropped. I wasn't sure what Cuddy was going to do with House, but I knew she was going to get rid of Lucas.

This isn't a "happily ever after" scenario. This isn't the grand symmetrical solution to all of House's quirky personality issues, so I don't expect the next season to be sweetness and light. Plenty will go wrong--if things don't go astray, there is no story.

I only hope that we haven't been tricked, and that House really was hallucinating.
