"You guys are very odd" - ha, I laughed :) yes, they are indeed, very,very odd. I always love any glimpses from an outside perspective of the various insanities of the PPTH personnel.
While proclaiming that he doesn't want to be House Pete is beginning to sound more and more like him. Loved Nolan's conversation with him, that there is no turning back - Pete cannot not be House, because he already is him. The objective is to avoid making the same mistakes, and to find a better way - it truly is a chance to start again.
Would have been nice to be a fly on the wall for the conversation between Lucas and Cuddy :) I'm sure she gave him an earful.
Sort of sad to hear that Cameron's diagnostic department isn't all that it's cracked up to be (although this is only through Wilson's eyes - and I bet he doesn't share that opinion with Cameron :) Wilson's suggestion to return to PPTH and work with Cameron is like a lot of Wilson's advice - well meant but probably not the soundest idea anyone's ever had. He probably has it right about Foreman too - no way would FOreman want House coming in and taking over, and House isn't going to sit back and just allow his name to be used.
The scene with Wilson, Pete and Nolan in the car was golden - and I'm sure Nolan was listening with every inch of his body. Pete was almost shame faced when he mumbled that he had an overnight pass, so he was just screwing with Wilson back at the storage locker. Nolan's comparison of Wilson to the blade was a good one, Pete/House will (and did) push and push and Wilson can't stop himself from coming back for more, but eventually the blade breaks.
When Wilson explodes about Pete's intention to go 'interview' Stacy I think he's also talking about himself, House has come back into his life, but to House it's an academic exercise, to Wilson its so much more.
Pete's "I'm sorry" at then end does suggest that there is some hope for old patterns to change.
(One little note - according to the show's admittedly vague and contradictory timeline I think it's established that Wilson has actually known House longer than Stacy, and also knew him before the infarction - not that that would preclude Pete from wanting to talk to her anyway.)
