Maybe it's because I've been watching a lot of Lost lately, maybe it's because I was expecting "Two Stories" to be like season 1's "Three Stories," or maybe it's just because I've seen episodes of television like this before, but I was not confused by the idea of time in this episode. In fact, the story that this episode told unraveled in the most perfect way possible. Everything in this episode unwound itself in the exact way it was supposed to, and it only made the episode more unique, at least compared to many other episodes of House. In this week's, "Two Stories," we get a lot more than the title bargains for, but the main idea of "Two Stories," is to show that there are two sides to every story, no matter how right you think you are. Or House thinks he is, which according to Cuddy, is always.Mirror, Mirror
Typically, this is the spot I reserve in this article for the patient of the week, but this week, there was more than one person being obviously paralleled. In "Two Stories," we had a parallel House and a parallel Cuddy. And might I say, I loved the young girl. House's attempt to make the distinction between bossy and bitchy defines the House/Cuddy relationship to a T. And as young little House says regarding his version of Cuddy, "She's bossy, but she's usually right." Their entanglement, as writer Tommy Moran would have it, was similar to that of House and Cuddy. Manipulation plus misguided heartfelt need. The boy playing the young version of House was very sweet, even in his manipulations. His honestly was refreshing and our House, the allegedly wiser one, took some great notes with him after their conversation.
