The “House” episode 6.9, entitled, “Ignorance is Bliss”, aired on Thanksgiving evening. It involves the case of James Sides, (Esteban Powell), portraying the character of James. Sidas has previously been an author and physicist who changes career paths in midstream to that of a courier, which is a much less stressful position. James feels that intelligence is a hindrance, one that leads to negative actions, such as addiction among other things. His symptoms are very complex and the House team of doctors is committed in finding the answer.

House is rather obsessed in a plan to terminate the relationship between Cuddy and Lucas; however Cuddy says that there is no relationship to terminate. Next, House‘s medical license is restored just in time to crack the case of Hank Hardwick (Troy Garity) as he enters the picture with excruciating eye pain. Finally, House attempts to reorganize his old team; however it is a hard task, since Cameron has decided to leave the team and even the hospital. Chase was also going to leave, but is persuaded by Foreman to stay onboard. House is striving to recreate his past team, which is a challenging task in itself.
