A bit loopy

House gets interested in the deteriorating condition of a death row inmate while Dr. Cameron deals with a terminally ill patient who doesn't know she is terminally ill. LL Cool J plays the inmate. Things get a little silly when House discovers not only the cause of the inmate's illness, but also a possible answer for the inmate's deadly behavior. House has a mild dustup with the two women in his life, Cuddy and Stacy, but otherwise sails through the episode without a care in the world. The best bit of business has Dr. Wilson discovering House eating his lunch next to a comatose patient. "You're dropping crumbs on him!" declares an outraged Wilson, who proceeds to sit on the other side of the patient's bed and asks House to pass a bag of potato chips. Wilson also has a couple of tense moments with Cameron, as he reminds her to stop trying to make friends with patients. House briefly gets to watch GENERAL HOSPITAL.
