House - Season Five


Recommended Posts

In the season finale, House is going to wake up from a coma that was caused from a blunt impact in his motorcycle accident in episode 19. Evidence:

- The foggy sequence from House's view during the last shot in episode 19 - the hint provider

- Kutner's suicide, the misdirection technique, in episode 20

- House's vision of Amber at the end of episode 21

- House's continued visions of Amber and other characters doing things like stripping (like Cuddy when House was unconscious in Season 4) in episode 22

- House's continued "perceived" insomnia in episode 23 (the word "perceived" is used in the official episode synopsis)

- In episode 24, the season finale, all this comes together (and Kutner died, except it was by carbon dioxide poisoning which was never confirmed to be suicidal or accidental, only that the talk of suicide around comatose House made him develop the story of gun shot suicide subconsciously - I thought he had of doing to himself previously). The end credits are accompanied by Radiohead's "No Surprises".

That would be awesome... I'm sure a tonne of people would be completely ****ed off with it, but that's why I'd love it :D... so out there

whoa! what an ending!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! I can't wait :s

The only think I can think of is: House is still in a coma, amber never really died... But then again, they other two getting married is just added for confusion?!

Any ideas? sorta what dclark posted?

Also: damn I would've liked Hameron!!! :p Chameron sucks! NO brownie points for not banging cameron! :p

Wow I didn't know there was an involved House thread here on Neowin. Hooray!

Re: April 13 ep... Cameron's communication skills suck. They've always sucked. Though I'm relieved it wasn't some "Oh I have residual feelings for House" kind of thing.

I'll be pretty irritated if 1/3rd of the season was House being a coma though. That is not "edgy" or a "twist," it's a sign of desperation on the part of the writers. I hope they manage better than that. However, Amber appearing again certainly is interesting.

I think house went in a coma after that episode where that black guy was paralized... At the end of the episode, he gets in the elevator and his vision becomes sorta blurry.!!!

Either way!

OMG!I did like the ending

I'm glad i'm not the only one that noticed the screen went blurry when the elevator doors closed, thats been driving me crazy. I have literally thought about it every other day, about what it could possibly mean for the series...

YES SIR!!! Been driving me crazy! To many lose ends to tie up in 3 remaing episodes! My guess is he went in a coma because of the injuries he had during the motorcyle accident. But if he is in a coma, then all the cameron and chase doesn't makes sense to me :(

(Y) (Y)

If only I was that lucky to get a hallucination like that! minus the coma or medical problem lol.

Yeah us mere mortals can only dream... I'd like to meet someone in real life who hallucinates so lively like that :p

Yeah, I do think the "Eureka" moments are cheesy. Funny thing is whenever it happens around Wilson, he asks House something like "your going to storm out the room now aren't you"

Yeah I agree, they're really cheesy. BUT you have to realize House and Wilson are much alike Sherlocke and Watson, that's what david shore says anyways :p

Althought I don't plan on going back and reading through this thread, I may be lost in this season I'm not sure. Why did Kutner kill himelf in episode 20?

Because hes going to work for the President, and they wanted a completely stupid way of killing off the character.

My random theory about the end of the season.

House's vision went blurry at the end of ep19 (with Mos Def), which was the start of a problem.

It's been getting worse, because House hasn't gone and gotten proper treatment for his bike crash, and Amber and that lot is his brain really screwed up.

    • Rufus 4.15.2391 Beta by Razvan Serea Rufus is a small utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc. Despite its small size, Rufus provides everything you need! Oh, and Rufus is fast. For instance it's about twice as fast as UNetbootin, Universal USB Installer or Windows 7 USB download tool, on the creation of a Windows 7 USB installation drive from an ISO (with honorable mention to WiNToBootic for managing to keep up). It is also marginally faster on the creation of Linux bootable USBs from ISOs. A non-exhaustive list of Rufus supported ISOs is available here. It can be especially useful for cases where: you need to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.) you need to work on a system that doesn't have an OS installed you need to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS you want to run a low-level utility Rufus 4.15.2391 Beta changelog: Improve the guards for using the "silent" option Improve the ability to cancel during write retries Fix unrestricted XML entity expansion and integer overflow in ezxml parser (courtesy of @esadowski4) [GHSA-55r2-34wg-8mv9] Fix "silent" Windows installation failing at 75% in most cases [#2960] Fix a crash during boot when using UEFI:NTFS on Snapdragon X based ARM64 platforms [#2934] Fix the first WUE option always being checked by default [#2965] Fix an infinite loop when using Windows ISOs that contain multiple WIMs Fix "Enable runtime UEFI media validation" checkbox not always being properly enabled Other WUE improvements/fixes for OneDrive removal and username validation (with thanks to @christian8641) [#2984, #2991] Download: Rufus 4.15 Beta | 1.9 MB (Open Source) Links: Rufus Home Page | Project Page @GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

    • Microsoft will finally let you sign in to Edge with a Google account by Usama Jawad As things currently stand, Microsoft Edge only allows you to sign in to the browser with a Microsoft Account (MSA). This allows you to sync your browser settings and other data across other devices, as long as you sign in with the same account. However, Microsoft is now modifying this mechanism in a way that will likely please many users. In an update to its Microsoft 365 Roadmap, Microsoft has indicated that it will soon let users sign into Edge using a Google account from the profile menu and the Edge sign-in screen. This will be in addition to the MSA login option, and it opens up new doors for people who prefer using Edge, but cannot be bothered to configure a Microsoft account. This brings several advantages such as the ability to sync your data across devices using just a Google account. It may even facilitate flexible single sign-on (SSO) experiences where you can quickly login to websites and services through a single Google account that is presented as the preferred sign-in option. Up until now, Microsoft allowed customers to indirectly use a Google account, by configuring a Google account as a Microsoft account, or by setting up a one-way sync option between Edge and Chrome. This is a rather interesting development, especially considering that Google Chrome still limits you to a Google account sign-in, but it will be interesting to see if the company reciprocates Microsoft's gesture in the future. This is not the only recent instance in which Microsoft has extended a handshake to Google via Edge. In April 2026, it began tracking the development of a work search banner for Google Search queries, just like the one present in Edge. However, if we go back almost seven years, to January 2020, Microsoft had emphasized that it had no plans to "integrate Google services into Microsoft Edge by default", in response to people requesting Google sign-in services on Edge. Fast-forward to today, and Microsoft is planning to release this feature in July 2026, with IT admins having the option to control its availability on Windows and macOS through the NonMicrosoftAccountSignInEnabled policy.
