I’ve often felt they use Wilson as a plot device when they can’t fit it to any other character. This leads him to do things that make no sense based on who he’s supposed to be, the most obvious being the pain issues. (Yet look how sympathetic he was to everything that cancer patient he had the crush on wanted.)
In the beginning they had Volger and Wilson was basically fulfilling his role here. It would have made more sense, given how the episode unfolded, for Cameron to be it here, but I don’t see Cuddy having that talk with her.
