the fact that house and wilson rode off into the sunset together to face a future of cancer-ridden pain is one of my greatest sources of sadness
Wilson recovers, though.
His cancer is part of a pattern that happened throughout the show: House, the diagnostics guy, got misdiagnosed pre-series, but figured it out himself and did not die, though he easily could have. Cuddy, the endocrinologist, suffered endocrine system problems and couldn’t conceive a child. She still got one. Foreman, neurologist: Brain disease! He recovered fully. Cameron, immunologist: Exposed to HIV. Did not contract it. Chase, intensive care specialist: Stabbed! Wound up in intensive care. Recovered.
The pattern is that they all are affected by whatever they specialize in, and they all, in one way or another, overcome it. So of course the oncologist gets cancer; that’s how the show works. It also means he goes into remission, because that is also how the show works.
Dude… DUDE this is the only time I have EVER actually believed that maybe Wilson didn’t die… I can’t believe I never realized any of this before. Wow wow wow wow
ok, this is extremely good from a “I refuse to accept sad canon outcomes” but also also EXTREMELY funny from the perspective of wilson reaching the 3month mark and then… not dying.
and then the 6mon mark, and he’s… feeling better, actually. this is twice as long as he ever expected, but he can’t be SAFE. this is just LUCK that’s gonna run OUT.
and by two years he’s sweating guilty bullets because house OBLITERATED his WHOLE LIFE and faked his DEATH to be with wilson for the last 3mon of his life, and now they’re FIVE YEARS IN, and house can NEVER GO BACK TO HIS FAMILY because he’s SO FUCKED over this ONE DECISION, and it’s ALLLLL wilson’s fault!!!!
meanwhile house is sipping mai thais, setting up illegal accounts in the caymens, and learning to forge his own documents cuz the ones he keeps buying down the street are really shoddy and he thinks he can slip a joke about his dick size onto his passport without anyone noticing.
he’s having the time of his LIFE.
I didn’t watch House all the way to the end what the fuck happened
long story short, Wilson reveals that he has a terminal cancer diagnosis. House takes it badly and does a “prank” that floods the hospital and is in enough legal trouble that he’d go (back) to jail for six months, which is longer than Wilson has to live. House fakes his own death, secretly attends his own funeral, then he and Wilson ride off into the sunset on motorcycles to enjoy their last five months together.
