  • Love is Blind is an 8th season episode of House which first aired on February 27, 2012 in Canada, and on March 19, 2012 in the United States. It was written by John C. Kelley and directed by Tim Southam. A blind man (Michael B. Jordan) starts suffering from a mysterious illness just before he's about to propose to his girlfriend. As his condition worsens, the team finds a way to save him, but the patient feels that the side effects of the cure would be worse than death. Meanwhile, House's mother will visit the hospital to tell her son some important news. However, House appears to be insistent on avoiding her and a discussion of the past year of his life at all costs. When Wilson thinks she's there to break some very bad news, he makes it clear that he won't put up with House's behavior any longer. House finally goes to see his mother, but finds something that both strikes him silent but ties his life together. Karolina Wydra reappears as Dominika Patrova This was one of the most anticipated episodes of the series because it promised to answer questions about House's background, and indeed it didn't hold back during the cathartic scene when House and his mother reveal they've always known each other's secrets, but had the good sense to keep them to themselves. However, American fans were ironically kept waiting for a further three weeks when that year's Daytona 500 was delayed and pre-empted the broadcast. Athough the patient is often treated as a sideshow to the main event, he once again represents a part of House - he has to make the same choice House did in Three Stories. However, unlike House, the event strengthens his relationship with his estranged girlfriend instead of destroying it. The appearance of comedy legend Billy Connolly also gives the writers an opportunity to play up the comic relief. Not only is Connolly given an opportunity to spread his wings, a time consuming and expensive hallucination sequence allows us to see a little more into Park's personality.
