Holding On (House)

"Holding On" is the twenty-first episode of the eighth season of House and the 176th overall. It aired on May 14, 2012 on FOX.

Plot

The team takes on the case of Derrick (guest star Skylar Astin), a 19-year-old college student who had a mysterious nose bleed during cheerleading practice, and discovers that his health issues are likely both physiological and psychological. Possibly suffering from schizophrenia, Derrick claims to hear his deceased brother's voice in his head. Wilson becomes resigned to his fate, but House does not. House becomes enraged at Wilson's desire to forgo further treatment, and effectively ends their friendship. House, without Wilson as a friend, turns his constant pranking towards Foreman. House fails to forsee the consequences of his pranks, including clogging the plumbing in the hospital, and causes the ceiling to cave in. With the cave in came the water, and ruins a MRI machine as well as injuring two doctors who were using the MRI. Due to the extreme expense of the ruined machine, House learns that he will likely have his parole revoked for at least six months, which is the amount of time Wilson has left to live.

Holding On (Beverley Craven song)

"Holding On" is a ballad by British singer Beverley Craven. The song was released as the album's fourth single in late 1990. This was Craven's first entry in the UK charts, peaking at a low #95 in February 1991. After the success of "Promise Me" in May 1991, "Holding On" was re-released as the follow-up single in July 1991, peaking at #32. The song also hit some European charts, and was also Craven's sole chart entry in the USA charts.

"Holding On" was one of three songs Craven recorded first with producer Stewart Levine in America. Not liking the final result, she went on to work with Paul Samwell-Smith, who produced her debut album. Levine's productions of her songs, however, were released as b-sides to her singles, under the label "West Coast Version".
