House doesn't know what to do, so he kills some time in a music montage. First, he looms over Suicide Fred's bed. Suicide Fred isn't creeped out by his presence, since he's still riding the wave of post-afterlife-glimpse euphoria. House retires to his office and studies the knife. And then he studies an electrical socket. Uh-oh. Don't do it, House! Remember that time you died, and all you saw was a farmer and a volleyball game? How boring! And then we go to Foreman, who's studying his own Whiteboard until he makes a decision. He wheels his patient down a hallway, struggling with her gurney even though I've seen petite women handle gurneys unassisted. Foreman's a wimp.
13 and 24 stick a chest tube in POTW's lung to drain some fluid. They're surprised to see that the fluid that comes out is clear, not bloody like it's supposed to be. 13 tells 24 to call House, but he's already paging 24. She goes to answer the page and is rather startled to watch her boss electrocute himself by sticking a knife in an outlet. Well, there are definitely worse things to walk in on your boss doing. Like, what if you walked in on him picking his nose? That'd be so embarrassing. He's looking pretty dead as she starts CPR. How many times can you almost kill your show's lead before the drama starts to wear thin? The answer is two. This, by the way, is the third time. Fourth. if you count that Christmas OD.
