"I thought Wilson’s treatment of House in the episode was unjustified, judgmental, and harsh. And, at this critical juncture for House, potentially destructive".....Wilson was such a jerk here!!Couldn't stand him! :P

"It’s actually Wilson who’s the real jerk here with his imperative is to get that fountain, even if it means jettisoning House from his condo to appease the neighbor. This is such a fragile, critical time for House, and Wilson continues to treat him like a barely-reformed juvenile delinquent on probation."
"Wilson then magnanimously allows House to stay. How big of him. Sorry, I thought Wilson’s treatment of House in the episode was unjustified, judgmental, and harsh."

THIS is one of the reasons why I don't care for her reviews, she's House-biased worse than I am Wilson-biased, that's just wrong.


I posted this comment:

Do you really think things would have gone any different if the fountain wasn't involved in all of this? Wilson is the eternal people pleaser, he sees this war hero who lost an arm and he can't help but feel it's his obligation to show utmost respect for the guy and do whatever the guy tells him to do. It was never really about the fountain.

We all know that House is trying to change, but he has a history of this, of making conflicts worse, so there was little wonder at the fact that Wilson wanted him to stay away from the dispute.
But House does get involved instead of setting for the apology-letter idea, which he was just about to do, but of course he couldn't help himself and acused the guy of something he didn't have substantial proof of, making all the matter worse. Very old House like.

So with House himself having already admitted that he had technically broken into the guy's place and his unjustified accusations to the guy, of course the guy was going to press charges. The guy, like House very well said, was clearly a jerk, so I'm positive that he wouldn't have let it go until House left, either voluntarily or unvoluntarily.

What choice did Wilson have? He was trying to stop the guy from pressing charges, he was trying to protect House. If he didn't care about House and only cared about the fountain like you sem to imply, then the best for him would have probably been for House to go to jail, he wouldn't have had to go through the trouble of calming the jerk down and convincing him of just letting House move out.

Lastly, I find it funny that you call Wilson a jerk, judgemental and blame him for treating House like a 'barely-reformed juvenile delinquent on probation', when ALL OF US already know that House is gonna go back to his old ways, it's only a matter of time. How can you blame Wilson for being suspicious and cautious? If he wasn't, I think that would show very little understanding of House on his part and a big ammount of naiveness. House himself knows that he has to earn the trust that he has lost with many years of putting fuel into fires, that is why he, unlike you, doesn't blame Wilson for his actions on this episode.

I'm glad that House settled the conflict and actually ended up helping Wilson, that was kind of him, and I'm glad that he didn't have to move out because I really heart them living together. But you can't deny the fact that House made the conflict a whole lot worse by slipping into his old self, before making it better. THAT should be proof enough that Wilson's disbelief of House was hardly unfouded.

Simply said Beatrix. Similiar gut reaction to Wilson and his
treatment of House. When House dialed up Wilson from Mayfield, and
Wilson was "on to his friend" - he also said, "I'm sooo sorry House."
That I can understand. However, I do not know what purpose it served
the relationship for Wilson to "kick out" a seriously recovering House, & basically without any meaningful dialogue to make sense of it. The downstairs guy WAS a jerk, (as was Wilson this time). However, House as usual was curious though this time also the sensitive one. He saw through the "vet's" anger, took a rather drastic action to FIX the guy & the situation. WIlson was out to lunch on the whole matter. At this point, I would rather see House reunited with his former furry 4-legged friend, Hector. Where is the LOVE ?

Oh noez, Bery is pissed! :O

Honestly, I don't like reading reviews because, well, I don't agree with them sometimes, and when it's happening I turn to somwthing like Bery - pissed like hell.
If I had any will power, I would read it. But I don't have one, and I don't want to get pissed so I'll leave it that way.
Thanks for the link, though.
