"Moving On" is the 23rd and last episode of the seventh season of the American medical drama House. It aired on May 23, 2011. It was the last episode of House to feature Lisa Edelstein as Lisa Cuddy.
Plot
The team treats a performance artist (Shohreh Aghdashloo) with an unknown sickness who deliberately induced additional symptoms unrelated to her illness in herself, with the aim of turning the diagnostics department into her new masterpiece via hidden cameras. House must decide which of her symptoms are real, and which are self-inflicted. As the case progresses, House vows to make changes in his life, but remains rooted in old habits.
After the case, House drives to Cuddy's home and sees her with her new boyfriend in the dining room. House lashes out by driving through Cuddy's dining room, which was fortunately empty. House gets out of his car like nothing happened, gives Cuddy the hairbrush she told him to return and walks away.
Meanwhile, Taub is avoiding calls from his ex-wife while he tries to figure out the best way to tell her that his new girlfriend, a nurse at the hospital, is pregnant, and that he plans on staying with her exclusively and raising the child. Finally, his ex-wife visits the hospital to talk to him, and before Taub can tell her, she unexpectedly informs him that she is also pregnant.
At the end of the episode, House is drinking at a bar and then walking on a Caribbean beach.
Cultural references
The performance artist treated by the team is based on Marina Abramović. In the opening scene a performance is shown, in which the audience is encouraged to use various tools on the passive artist in any way they want. This is a reference to Abramović's Rhythm 0, 1974.
