After the shake-up we had last week, Kim and Conda stand alone as the two secure in their places for the final next week. Jeremy was eliminated, but is eligible to compete for the finale spot. The 14 other eliminated players, minus the quitters, who are no longer a part of the show in any way, are back for a four-part challenge.

This season, for some reason, has been longer than other season. It’s an 18 week season, most are 13 or 14. I’m wondering if there will be a season over the summer this year or if we will have to wait until the fall. Has anyone else ever thought about sending in an audition tape? I’m seriously contemplating it. Anyway, on with the show…

After last episode’s multi-Kleenex extravaganza, you would have think Private Practice would have run out of ways to bring the heartache. You would be wrong. This week’s hour was another tear-inducing emotional rollercoaster.

With only a handful of episodes left in the season, and Shonda Rhimes’ other shows holding steady in the ratings, we do need to make sure our voices are heard to ABC, as last Tuesday’s ratings were not strong. Be sure to let ABC know you want more Private Practice!

Nick has given up on love, and is planting tomatoes to heal his pain. Epic fail impending. Cece is pulling back from Schmidt because she doesn’t want to admit how much she likes (loves?) him. Didn’t we play this game of chicken with them last week?

Jess, oh Jess, she runs into Russell’s ex in the steam room. She invites ex-wife to dinner, cue awkward on top of awkward. Jeanne Tripplehorn (as Ouli) can do no wrong IMO. And this role is no exception!

This week, my question of; where has Parker been, is finally answered. He is back and is happy to meet his new sister, but I wouldn’t say he is overjoyed. Booth tries hard to do some family stuff with him, but notices he is keeping some secrets.

As for Hodgins, seems as though he likes to spend a lot of the budgeted money and decided to buy some extra lab toys. Cam tells him he has to decide which ones he is going to send back. Then to top it all off, he finds out there is not going to be a Founders Day celebration due to the cuts.

A little boy, Lue, dreams that a crazy old hag is choking him. His mom tries to talk him through it but his lips turn blue and he passes out. Holy crap. I hate when bad things happen to kids on this show.

House thinks that the boy’s dreams mean something but Park quickly says it was just a dream and dreams don’t mean anything. House picks up on that and asks Park who she dreamt about. Then he assigns the team to various jobs and Park asks to go with Taub and not Chase. So House deduces she had a sexy dream about Chase.
