[edit] Behind the Scenes
- Cast Reunion: Although the two actors never share a scene together, Dylan Kussman, who plays Mr. Carroll, previously shared a great deal of screen time with Robert Sean Leonard in the classic 1989 film Dead Poets Society, in which they play prep school students inspired by the maverick English professor John Keating. In the film, Leonard plays Keating's top student, Neil Perry, who commits suicide after appearing as Puck in a stage adaptation of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Kussman, as Richard Cameron, absolves himself of his guilt for Neil's death by telling the school administration that Keating is culpable.
[edit] Allusions and References
- Greg Louganis: To convince Cuddy to let him study Mary Carroll, House says, "Those little pills you're passing out so efficiently aren't gonna do Miss Louganis squat." Greg Louganis was an American Olympic diver who won four gold medals in 1984 and 1988.
- The Producers: After the interview with Dr. Petra Gilmar, Wilson shouts, "That's our Hitler!" This is a line from the 1968 Mel Brooks film The Producers. In the film, Broadway producers Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom produce the worst stage musical they can to fleece their investors. Their script, Springtime for Hitler, is a love letter to Adolf Hitler. In the casting sessions, hippie Lorenzo St. DuBois sings an incomprehensible song about flowers. After his audition, Max declares loudly, "That's our Hitler!"
