New clip on Fox.com!

[silversolitaire]

You probably have seen it already, but there's a new clip over at fox.com/house featuring Robert Sean Leonard and David Morse discussing the Tritter arc.

Since some people over at hw_wilson have asked for a transcript which I have happily provided, I figured I might as well post it here for myself to keep and for others. ^^

RSL: The entrance of David Morse's character, the detective, into the show forces Wilson to deal with House in a way he hasn't dealt with him before. He forces him to make choices, you know. He's got to defend himself and in order to protect himself he's got to give up some dirt on House. Or not, it's his choice to do that. So, their friendship is tested in a way that I think it hasn't been so far in the series.

DM: Really, I don't think of my character as a bully. I think it's just somebody who's been around, that he's seen it, and he's just dealing with another guy on drugs, really. And he's seen all the games. You know, he knows the tricks.

RSL: Dr. Wilson is forced into a corner by Tritter in many ways. You know, Tritter is out to get House and he wants the dirt on House and obviously Wilson is a good person to mine for that and... So yeah, he's got a lot of important choices to make once he meets Det. Tritter. 'Cause Tritter has no problem getting Wilson in trouble in order to get what he needs on House.

DM: When Det. Tritter first goes after Dr. House Tritter's pretty angry at him. Tritter's been violated by this doctor and he wants revenge. He'd be happy to see this guy go to jail, and worse. But as he meets people over time, as he starts meeting the other people in the hospital and gets a sense of who this guy really is and what he means to the hospital and to the patients.

I love how RSL just keeps repeating himself... LOL. Also, I didn't transcribe all the "uh..."s and fragments and "you know"s that both of them seem to be throwing in constantly. I like DM's analysis of his character and how his motivations might change. I think it's plausible to have him sway in his determination to utterly destroy House once he's seen that he's not just a total ass full of himself, but that he's actually got a right to be that way. I mean, he IS brilliant. Plus, Tritter got his revenge by driving that wedge between House and Wilson either way, so all is well for him, I guess.

And is it just me or did they like cut off the second half of DM's sentence there??? It seems like the sentence wasn't quite finished yet... oh well.
