82 (4-12) "Don't Ever Change"  Leonard Dick & Doris Egan Deran Sarafian February 5, 2008 Nephroptosis
House and the team encounter a woman (guest star Laura Silverman) admitted to Princeton-Plainsboro after she collapsed at her wedding. Her test results come up negative for a variety of common diseases, which leads the team to suspect foul play. When they discover the woman had been a music producer living in the fast lane until she began to practice Hasidic Judaism, House insists that people do not change, and that her seemingly rash decision may be a symptom of the underlying condition. 
83 (4-13) "No More Mr. Nice Guy"  David Hoselton & David Shore Deran Sarafian April 28, 2008 Chagas' disease
House suspects an emergency room patient has a bigger problem than the E.R. initially diagnosed based on the fact that the patient is too nice. A skeptical House questions the patient's sunny disposition as the team tries to get to the bottom of his illness, but disagrees with House that niceness is a symptom. Meanwhile, House and Amber are at odds about how much time they each get to spend with Wilson, and Cuddy demands House give his team performance reviews. 
84 (4-14) "Living the Dream"  Sara Hess & Liz Friedman David Straiton May 5, 2008 Cinchonism
House is convinced one of the actors on his favorite soap opera (guest star Jason Lewis) “Prescription Passion” has a serious medical condition after observing his symptoms on television. House decides to intervene and take matters into his own hands, but both the actor and House's own team dismiss House’s assessment and do not believe there is anything wrong with him. Meanwhile, much to House’s delight, Amber and Wilson have their first argument, and Cuddy tries to keep up appearances when an inspector makes an unexpected visit to Princeton-Plainsboro. 
85 (4-15) "House's Head"  Peter Blake & David Foster & Doris Egan & Russel Friend & Garrett Lerner Greg Yaitanes May 12, 2008 Air embolism from dental work (bus driver)
House finds himself dazed, confused and covered in blood after surviving a bus accident that left dozens seriously injured. Unable to clearly recall the events leading up to the crash due to his head injuries, House becomes convinced through his flashbacks that a fellow bus passenger was exhibiting signs of a deadly illness prior to the crash. Much to the team's dismay, House pushes through the pain of his own injuries, desperate to piece together the fragments of his shattered memory in order to save someone who might not even know he or she could be dying. 
86 (4-16) "Wilson's Heart"  Peter Blake & David Foster & Doris Egan & Russel Friend & Garrett Lerner Katie Jacobs May 19, 2008 Amantadine poisoning
Clues inside House's head hold the key to Amber's condition, and House's friendship with Wilson is tested beyond limits as murky memories from the bus accident the night before threaten to change their lives forever. Season Finale
