The executive's story pinged my grrrr center and kind of soured me on most of the episode. It is just - well I was pissed off to begin with that she had to have these conditions (well she is a successful woman, of course there is something terribly wrong with her) then I became incensed at the comparison of self-injury and bulemia with suicidal - wtf? That didn't even make sense - apples and oranges. And then, the idea that an otherwise healthy 32 year old would be denied a heart because she was bulimic - because she suffers from a TREATABLE MEDICAL CONDITION! Gah, that just drove me nuts.
Also - her SI was not noticed by anyone else at the hospital prior to House and she was in the ICU? WTF? Makes no sense and I require my intelligence at least be nodded at by the space medicine - this was insulting.
And then my final issue was Chase absolutely invading her privacy - AFTER there was no need for it. I understand the gray area of searching her home/things if the goal is to save her life. The goal here was to simply satisfy their own curiosity and that bugs the shit out of me.
See, I don't see him getting fired because he scanned the wrong leg. Shit happens - I would not be upset if he was fired over this blatant disrespect of someone's privacy. You just can't do that shit.
