This season focuses on House and Cuddy finally becoming a couple. House tries to change and build a normal relationship, but his addiction, insecurities and inability to trust others slowly destroy it. Meanwhile, the team undergoes changes with Thirteen’s absence and the arrival of Martha Masters, a brilliant young doctor who challenges House’s belief that lying is sometimes necessary. Meanwhile, Wilson, Chase and Taub each face their own personal challenges. There are also a few episodes featuring Cuddy’s difficult mother. It is obvious that Cuddy’s and House’s relationship ends badly. Themes of love, self-destruction and loss emerge again. After seven seasons, the series remains excellent.
“Taub: It’s interesting.
Masters: No, it’s not. It’s mundane and simple. He’s obviously a very blessed specimen, so from an evolutionary point of view, he’d produce healthy offspring, so my prefrontal cortex is telling me I should have sex with him.
Taub: Oh. Is that all?
Masters: Yes. My rational brain knows he’s a hillbilly and an idiot.
Taub: And yet somehow your rational brain is losing the argument, which is interesting.“
