History WMG / House

* Wait...''Series/{{House}}'' airs on {{Creator/FOX}}. Newscorp owns broadcast Fox and Creator/{{Fox News|Channel}}. Kal Penn leaves to join the Obama administration and... Goddammit, Fox.

* Or she is able to look beyond looks and could see that something was off about the woman where the men could not? Or she just didn't find her attractive? 13 is bisexual, not ''AnythingThatMoves''.

[[WMG:House is unaware that he has [[LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya Haruhi]]-like power of rewriting reality.]]

Think about it. The entire universe revolves around him - often, it seems as if nothing in the hospital would get done if he was not there to help. He is always right (more or less); he is never called to task for any of the ethically gray (or black) things that he does; and he is [[SuetifulAllAlong incredibly fascinating]] to everyone he meets. This is all easily explained if the "universe" that he sees is the result of his delusions while he's in a coma. The hospital where he works is loosely based on what he experiences when his brain swims towards lucidity.

[[WMG: Cameron's full name is [[TwoFirstNames Allison Cameron]] [[NamesTheSame House]].]]

* Or he could join Lucas Douglas in [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_(TV_series)#Spin-off that rumored spin-off of ''House'']]. Together, the two [[TheyFightCrime would fight crime]]!

This was also true with Vogler and Nolan. This is why, while he uses everyone else (including authority figures) as his SnarkBait, when confronted by them one upping him he genuinely becomes hostile or experiences a HeroicBSOD. This could also be the result of David Shore using a ScaryBlackMan as a common foil antagonist for House.

[[WMG: The network or producers [[spoiler: McLeaned Kutner]].]]

They've name checked at least half a dozen tropes, probably more. I distinctly remember them mentioning KickTheDog, UpToEleven, ManipulativeBastard, and probably more.

[[WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures No Relation.]] [[IncestIsRelative Probably]]. Or at least no ''direct'' relation. [[EpilepticTrees It will be revealed when she and Chase go to change her name - Chase will want her to add his name to hers.]]

This is symbolic timing. And, since "Lockdown" is no longer in the ''middle'' of a block of Series/{{House}} episodes, viewers will be more alert this time around. But the work required to set this up is so drastic that ''something'' must be going on here that is even worse than the ShockingSwerve in "Simple Explanation."

* Hmm... We learned that Thirteen ''[[SelfProclaimedLiar may]]'' have never told her father she was bisexual, that Foreman's class-inferiority issues are still bothering him, and that Foreman may have tried to lie to Diagnostics about his background during the pilot. We already knew that House is lonely and wants to be lonely. So unless Wilson stealing a dollar and getting caught but not prosecuted is a ShockingSwerve...

** Because TheSimpsons and WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy totally aren't allowed to express the writers' moonbat opinons.
** TheSimpsons and WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy have NegativeContinuity, run on RuleOfFunny, and take RefugeInAudacity. {{Creator/FOX}} allows those shows their moonbat opinions because they ''look'' like moonbat shows. Series/{{House}} is a semi-realistic MedicalDrama with continuity averaging positive, and it had {{Very Special Episode}}s even before the incident being theorized about. FOX and Creator/{{Universal}} do care about the messages the show sends; else, we would not have a "House is not an addict" WMG.

[[WMG: Chase is a descendant of [[StarWars Luke Skywalker.]]]]

Now, Series/{{House}} pays for its attempts to be at the cutting edge by being visibly vulnerable to ExecutiveMeddling; GettingCrapPastTheRadar here means accepting a CreativityLeash there. So, Creator/{{FOX}} and Creator/{{Universal}} had to wait to see if the RealLife status quo would change and, if it did (as it did), decide the least destructive way to deal with it...

The actor who plays Wilson is Neil Perry, and [[spoiler: faked his own suicide to escape the BillyElliotPlot and pursue a career in acting]]. He then found a job playing a doctor (the career his father wanted him to pursue) on TV and became successful enough that his father accepted his choice in careers. As a peace offering, Neil invited his father onto the show for a guest appearance as a father whose son is a brain-damaged pianist.

[[WMG: House is an [[OurElvesAreBetter elf]].]]

Wilson was in the room when House complained about the pity given to less functioning autistics like the Patient of the Week. Cuddy's doubt made him understand that the best way to show his sympathy is to pretend not to think he has it, thus sort of saying "I don't care/it doesn't change our friendship, or how impressed I am with you."
* Additionally, while the eye-contact and giving someone a present was surely great for the parents, it wouldn't count as a ''"10"''. Except, if you include House and his ''accomplishment''..

[[WMG: House ''does'' have [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/UsefulNotes/HighFunctioningAutism autism.]] Wilson lied about not believing it, in "Lines in the Sand.]]

Furthermore, House has his suspicions about this sort of thing and it angers him all the more. It's the reason why he's so determined to disprove the supernatural and the religious. If he can disprove it than all his achievements are truly his own.

There's one episode where he admits that he doesn't believe in God/The Afterlife/ etc because he finds it "more comforting" just like those that do believe find it more comforting. In another episode, he goes into surgery and shouts at the patient's family, "I'd better not catch you praying! I don't want to fight over credit for this." That's not mere snark but a serious statement. He goes as far as to stick a fork into an electric socket in order to provoke a near-death experience so he can disprove someone else's. Finally, how truly serious do you believe he was when he said he was going to "cure" a dead person?
* If House ever discovered that was true, he would put himself into a permanent vegetative state. He can't kill himself, because then he'd have to deal with what he would consider "the bastard" face to face.

Dr. House is a mentat. Vicodin is actually the geriatric spice/melange/life. You just have to look at those glowing blue eyes and the feats of insane brilliance, as well as his hallucinations after using too much "vicodin". Add in the deep superstition of religious figures (Bene Gesserit, anyone?) and the continual pain he's in (Remember the pain box?) It's actually possibly that House is one of many failed Kwisatz Haderachs, and is an ancestor for the Atreides or Harkonnens. The more this troper thinks about it, the more obvious it becomes. I mean, hell, the whole anarchist rage-against-authority thing could be a mask for hating the Padishah Emperor and thinking his power and corruption was too great, just like Muad'dib.

Really, this explains everything: his intelligence, his bizarre personality, his difficulties getting along with humans and even understanding them, the mystery surrounding his biological father, how he seems to be impossible to kill, and especially how he got out of that burning building, i.e. he didn't escape, he didn't die, he regenerated! And now Wilson gets to have the new regeneration of House as a buddy to share his dying moments, and it may very well be a different House, because although "people don't change," Time Lords DO experience personality changes when they regenerate. Or he could be a bizarre half-human half Time Lord; maybe his mother had an affair with the Doctor and House was the result! That would explain why no obvious abnormalities (like 2 hearts) have been found on any body imaging of him. And, like the Doctor, he's played by a British actor! The more I think about this, the more is makes sense to me.

* Alternatively...

Again, it knew things it shouldn't and tried to make House kill Chase. The First always seemed to like making people on the side of good kill others or themselves and House, despite an asshole, has saved hundreds.

Note: this probably should go under PoisonOakEpilepticTrees, too.

** <shrug> On the other hand, we may have seen a domino drop. Wilson appears to be taking romantic advice from Thirteen.
