Walnut Tourist Version 2 (Current Cane)
Item: Cane #7 (Walnut Tourist v2) Episodes: 30?	Exactly the same as Cane #3. House's first Walnut Tourist was taken from him with no indication that he ever got it back, so we can probably assume that this is a new cane in the same style and therefore deserving of its own page here at House's Canes. As of Episode 6-13, Moving The Chains, This cane has appeared in more episodes than any other. Its fate is unknown at the end of Season 6 (see below).
First Appearance: The Social Contract [S05-E17]	With no fanfare or mention of last episode's adventures with methadone, shaving, and a day or two of the cane-free life, House arrives at work and limps into his outer office with a fresh growth of scruff on his face and a new cane in his hand. His team are already discussing their new case and take no noticeable interest in the cane, but it will be heavily featured throughout the episode with close-ups, twirls, and various cool poses to give us a good look at it.
Brief Holiday: Broken [S06-E01+02]	When House checks himself into Mayfield Psychiatric Hospital at the end of Season 5, Walnut Tourist gets shelved for a while. For his stay here throughout the two-hour Season 6 opener, which is estimated to take place over a few months, House will be using an Aluminum Offset. When he leaves here in the final scene, Walnut Tourist is at his side again.
Last Appearance (maybe): Help Me [S06-E22]	House follows Hannah, the patient he helped rescue from the rubble of a collapsed building, to the ambulance. He limps past his cane but is distracted and forgets it on the piece of rebar in the broken wall where he hung it earlier. We never see it again in the episode; since this was the Season Finale, we won't know until September if he ever got it back. He's had this cane much longer than any other one on the show, so for now I'm going to guess that he'll have a new one for Season 7 and that this shot is the last time we'll see Walnut Tourist v2.
