SuperMom has now taken to using her IV pole as a weapon. She really is good at finding multiple uses for everyday objects. I guess that's what makes her so super! She accuses StuporDad of trying to steal her daughter from her, since this is the one time StuporDad actually wised up and didn't bring her to the hospital room. Foreman explains to StuporDad that his wife is having a "psychotic break," and then SuperMom takes out a way-too-easily-shattered window before the Cottages tackle her and shoot her up with Ativan. SuperMom also informs us that Stella isn't StuporDad's biological daughter. I'm curious as to why she's the one taking fertility drugs to get pregnant with his biological child when it's obviously his StuporSperm that are to blame for their pregnancy problems. I'm sure they get in there and then promptly get lost and wander off into SuperMom's intestines or something before implanting themselves into her kidneys, mistaking them for eggs.
Later, SuperMom has calmed down, and her Huntington's test has come back negative. Good thing they didn't give her those dangerous unnecessary Huntington's drugs, then, isn't it? Foreman is baffled; he was sure she had Huntington's. You know, there's a really easy and fast way to rule out that a patient doesn't have Huntington's -- find out if her parents had it. If neither of them did, then their kid won't either. Of course, you still have to do the test to confirm that since everybody LIES and on this show, no one is the biological father, but it would have given them a pretty good idea of what they were dealing with and saved them some time. And they did do a family history, which we know because Foreman suggests "spontaneous schizophrenia" and Cameron rejects it, saying that there's no record of mental illness in SuperMom's family. I didn't know a family with no mental illnesses even existed, but I guess SuperMom's family is SuperMentallyHealthy. Cynical House wonders whether the source of SuperMom's SuperMomness is drugs, saying that cocaine abuse explains all her symptoms. Cameron already knows what's coming and jumps up to go break into SuperMom's home and look for her "stash." Foreman is chosen to accompany her, because, as House says "there's gotta be a reason for the stereotype." I certainly missed House's winning racist humor this past month.
