Fill me in, please!!! SPOILERS for tonight's and upcoming eps

[flywoman]

So of course I have to wait for the episode to come up next week, but my understanding from reading comments is that Cuddy and House had various weird dreams about their relationship and/or life after it, House couldn't stand to face his fears about Cuddy without getting back on Vicodin, Cuddy broke up with him for it, and next week's promo suggests that Depressed!House is going to jump off a building???

And what are the titles of the next two episodes? "Fall From Grace" and "The Dig"? Sounds really ominous. Unless Cuddy is just going to die really quickly from her totally unexpected and ridiculous metastatic cancer.

He was so sexy in top hat and tails singing and dancing. Shame they couldn't have shown Wilson singing as well. Oh well. It was a good number, though it's significance for what was going on still escapes me.

I think it foreshadows House's relapse and their break-up ("Judgment Day").

I didn't realize until I read the blogcritic's review what that "candy" epiphany was about. In each of Cuddy's dream sequences, House had candy -- a candy cane, a lollipop, whatever it was he was chewing in the western sequence, bubble gum in the sitcom. Her subconscious knew she was involved with an addict under stress. That's sufficiently fantastic writing to make up for "unplanned parenthood" and "two stories."

Yes - she gets the epiphany about it when her sister mentions that Rachel calls her sleeping pills "candy."*

That's sufficiently fantastic writing to make up for "unplanned parenthood" and "two stories."

I'm not sure that the most fantastic writing in the world could make up for "Two Stories."

*FINALLY was given a link to a site that let me watch the ep.

Wasn't it just last week that he showed up at her place drunk and passed out in her lap? That'd be a big red flag for me.

It was telling Cuddy that House was stoned.

Lyrics at the beginning:

Forget your troubles come on get happy, you better chase all your cares away...

House did that with vicodin.

What totally kills me is that over on the Cuddy comms pre-episode, they were interpreting these lyrics as a good thing.
