From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Alone" is the first episode of the fourth season of House and the seventy-first episode overall. It first aired on September 25, 2007. This is the first episode of House in which none of the members of House's original team of Allison Cameron, Robert Chase and Eric Foreman appear. Despite this, each of the actors who portrays the characters on his former team are credited and are still under contract to appear throughout the season. The only other previous absence of any of these characters in an entire episode was Dr. Cameron in the Season One episode "Babies and Bathwater", as she had resigned, albeit temporarily. The episode title refers to House diagnosing his patient by himself as well as the accident victims being without their respective families. When an office building collapses, House has to work fast to diagnose a young woman, Megan, who survived the disaster. Due to her injuries, Megan's only form of communication is blinking with one eye. House, without a team since Foreman and Cameron quit and he fired Chase, talks through his ideas with empty seats and then a janitor who thinks House is talking to him.
