- GoofsWhen Cushing's Syndrome is brought up, the patient states that she, "had it last year," insinuating that it had been cured, that she no longer had it. Cushing's Syndrome is an ongoing condition, whose symptoms can be mitigated, but it can't really be 'cured,' or gotten rid of for good, so if she 'had it last year,' she would still have it now.

Prejudices
A woman collapses at an OTB facility that House frequents, and he soon finds himself doing battle with his new boss (Foreman!) over her treatment. Foreman has become House's temporary boss in the aftermath of "The Mistake." And Foreman's well-known prejudice against street people and low lifes comes into play when he suspects the woman's motives. Much of the appeal of this episode is due to the actress playing the stricken woman, the lovely and talented Cynthia Nixon. She is highly convincing as a woman who may or may not be deathly ill, and causes House to get personally involved for a change. They have a great scene together in the third act while seated on a park bench in snowy weather. Wilson meanwhile digs himself into an increasingly deeper hole as he moves in with House.
