Answers about Dying Changes Everything
One of the House writers, Eli Attie, has taken the time to answer some of the fans questions about Dying Changes Everything - take a look:
Will Wilson stay on the show?
Wilson will stay on the show, but the rift between him and House is very real, and won’t be easy to repair. For his part, House will have to fill that vacuum in his life — losing his best and arguably only friend, as well as his conscience on the show.
House was definitely going into emotional turmoil last night as his feelings were concealed until the very end when he allowed his vulnerability to be thrown onto the table. Will we see House throw his vulnerability on the table to more characters?
It goes without saying that House doesn’t show vulnerability easily or often. It would take a major event, possibly a catastrophic one — though we may well see a couple more of those this season.
Was Cuddy’s line to Wilson “go to heck (you know what I mean)” meant to show her growing independence from Wilson’s influence as he always helped her in dealing with House? Is Cuddy finally trusting her instincts?
Cuddy was making it clear that she thought Wilson was being just as unreasonable as House in their “counseling session.” Plus she doesn’t want to see Wilson leave PPH (or House, for that matter) any more than House does. She relies on Wilson, which is exactly why she wants to continue relying on him.
How much character development can we expect to see from 13? I was pleased to see her evolving from the mysterious girl into a more distinct personality in this episode.
We’re going to see a lot of development in her character this season — as Thirteen goes through the various stages of her slow-death Huntington’s diagnosis. The premiere was just the beginning, and we can expect all sorts of reactions and changes from her, given her rather grim prognosis.
