3.08 Whac-A-Mole
From tv.com: An 18-year-old teenager is brought to the hospital after having a heart attack. House reviews the boy's file and believes he has the diagnosis. He then turns the case into a game by sealing his opinion in an envelope and challenging Cameron, Foreman, and Chase to guess House's diagnosis on their own. Meanwhile, Tritter's actions against Wilson continue to strain the oncologist's relationship with House and destroy his ability to practice medicine.

Can somebody explain the title to me? Guacamole/whac-a-mole, I don't get it.....

The kid's illness was such in that as soon as they had confirmed a diagnosis and started treating for it, he started to develop symptoms for another illness. So, much like the "Whac-a-Mole" game, they'd hit one and another three would pop up. Which, comparing tv.com's episode description to the episode description from the HouseMD-Guide.com, it almost seems like two separate episodes.

OK, never heard of that game, thanks!

They're usually found more at arcades and at places like Showbiz Pizza or ChuckECheese's. There's these nine or so plastic moles that randomly pop up and you have to hit it with this little rubber mallet, only, as soon as you hit one, others pop up randomly. Insane, fun, and a good way to take your aggressions out on something else. Hitting plastic moles can take you to a zen-like state of mind, and when you get there, it just gets easier. The ones I've seen reward with tickets (at restaurants) that can be later used to "buy" a prize. Save the tickets though as the good prizes usually take 50 or more tickets.

The things I've learned just by watching House.... I cannot count the times I have gone to Google or Wiki after watching an episode. Many of the names of people mentioned who are in sports or TV-shows are not so well known here in Holland. Yesterday, after watching QSS, I had to look up Gomer Pyle and Barney Fife. But it's fun to find out about them, for instance just the phrase "How was the play, mrs. Lincoln" caused me to read a whole lot about mr. and mrs. Lincoln...
