- I'll tell you what.

into my guests' wineglasses...

not that mild.

but I bet it's important.

Yeah. If only he'd fallen
on his head.

of these symptoms.

at stake for it to be severe?

is crazy dangerous.
105
00:06:10,850 --> 00:06:12,310
It can cause
internal bleeding.
106
00:06:12,435 --> 00:06:13,687
If he bleeds, he could stroke,
he could die.
107
00:06:13,812 --> 00:06:14,980
He could get better.
108
00:06:15,105 --> 00:06:17,065

to scheme like this,
109
00:06:17,190 --> 00:06:20,360

is borderline irresponsible,

isn't doing squat.

- Obviously.

- It's exactly what he'd do.
- I know.
116

I think he's trying
to protect me.
117
00:06:43,717 --> 00:06:46,177
Now, that's not
the type of thing he would do.
118
00:06:46,302 --> 00:06:47,387
I overruled him.
119
00:06:47,512 --> 00:06:51,516

this hospital, and I overrule him.
120

121
00:06:54,144 --> 00:06:56,396
Yourjudgment
should be worth more than his.
122
00:06:56,521 --> 00:07:00,275

been a real doctor in years.
123

is her sense of humor.

136
00:07:34,893 --> 00:07:37,604
Yeah. Well, see, we tend to
have nitric oxide deficiencies.
137
00:07:37,729 --> 00:07:39,773
And the studies show this drug
counteracts that problem.
138
00:07:39,898 --> 00:07:40,732

drugs they're pawning off in Africa?

171
00:10:06,044 --> 00:10:07,837
That doesn't sound too good.
172
00:10:20,058 --> 00:10:21,434
CAMERON:
His fingers are even darker.
173
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,353
His temperature's 102
and spiking.
174
00:10:23,478 --> 00:10:27,148
And the x-ray
now shows lung infiltrates.
175
00:10:27,273 --> 00:10:31,027
Well, the good news is he won't be bitching
about losing his hand if he can't breathe.
176
00:10:31,152 --> 00:10:34,405
The trauma from the fall could have caused
acute respiratory distress syndrome.
177
00:10:34,530 --> 00:10:36,366
Right. I forgot. Your roof.
178
00:10:36,491 --> 00:10:39,285
It would cause lung
infiltrates and maybe fever
179
00:10:39,410 --> 00:10:41,287
and conceivably
the cyanotic fingers.
180
00:10:41,412 --> 00:10:44,582
- The only question is why.
- Why what?
181
00:10:44,874 --> 00:10:46,709
Why her weird psychopathology
182
00:10:46,834 --> 00:10:50,880
requires a diagnosis infonned
entirely by personal guilt.
183
00:10:51,005 --> 00:10:53,341
Let's assume
we've been wrong up until now.
184
00:10:53,466 --> 00:10:55,176
Let's assume,
just for one second,
185
00:10:55,301 --> 00:10:58,137
that the earth doesn't revolve
around (Buddy's roof.
186
00:10:58,930 --> 00:11:02,267
What if he was sick before he
had his run-in with gravity?
187
00:11:02,392 --> 00:11:03,476
He just didn't
notice anything.
188
00:11:03,601 --> 00:11:06,479
Well, pneumonia can cause DIC
which can cause cyanotic fingers.
189
00:11:06,604 --> 00:11:08,648
- Pneumonia doesn't hit that fast.
- Sure.
190
00:11:08,773 --> 00:11:12,235
Only pavement hits that fast.
It's not pneumonia.
191
00:11:13,027 --> 00:11:14,654
He might have missed
a finger turning dark.
192
00:11:14,779 --> 00:11:16,239
He's not gonna miss
breathing problems.
193
00:11:16,364 --> 00:11:18,116
- What else?
- It's pneumonia.
194
00:11:20,410 --> 00:11:22,370
He wanted to go home.
I thought he was lying.
195
00:11:22,495 --> 00:11:25,581
I told him I had a dinner party.
I made him go up there.
196
00:11:26,332 --> 00:11:28,459
Well, why didn't you just
take out a gun and shoot him?
197
00:11:28,584 --> 00:11:30,253
I thought it was just asthma.
198
00:11:30,378 --> 00:11:32,463
You might've mentioned this
earlier, Doctor.
199
00:11:32,588 --> 00:11:35,174
Maybe we could have sent
some blood cultures to the lab
200
00:11:35,300 --> 00:11:37,802
instead of wasting a day
indulging your self-loathing.
201
00:11:37,927 --> 00:11:42,223
If it's just garden-variety bacterial
pneumonia, he's gonna be fine.
202
00:11:42,348 --> 00:11:45,727
So give him garden-variety Levaquin,
and a garden-variety echocardiogram.
203
00:11:45,852 --> 00:11:47,061
And go check out
the kid's house.
204
00:11:47,186 --> 00:11:49,439
The blood work will show us which
type of pneumonia it is...
205
00:11:49,564 --> 00:11:53,067
If he's huffing nail polish or pulling
the wings off his pet parrot,
206
00:11:53,192 --> 00:11:54,485
this way'll be faster.
207
00:11:54,610 --> 00:11:57,780
And I bet Julio's just dying to
find out what's wrong with him.
208
00:11:57,905 --> 00:12:00,283
- Go with her.
- It's Alfredo.
209
00:12:01,159 --> 00:12:02,952
And I can handle
getting a key and...
210
00:12:03,077 --> 00:12:06,998
Rico and I no longer trust you deciding
what's important and what's not.
211
00:12:14,005 --> 00:12:17,258
You ever think about writing
a book on office politics?
212
00:12:17,383 --> 00:12:18,593
Trust me,
213
00:12:18,718 --> 00:12:22,013
it would be a lot worse if I told her
that you had to break into her house.
214
00:12:23,014 --> 00:12:26,225
(STUTTERING) What? Wait, wait, wait...
Cuddy's house?
215
00:12:26,351 --> 00:12:27,935
See? It is shocking.
216
00:12:28,936 --> 00:12:31,439
The guy's been working there every
day for the last three weeks.
217
00:12:31,564 --> 00:12:33,441
You think it's impossible he
could've picked something up?
218
00:12:33,566 --> 00:12:36,736
- I'm not breaking into my boss's house.
- I'm your boss.
219
00:12:36,861 --> 00:12:38,613
She's scarier than you are.
220
00:12:39,238 --> 00:12:42,575
She's a woman.
Relax. I'm coming with.
221
00:12:48,539 --> 00:12:51,084
House is having lunch
with his juniors now?
222
00:12:51,209 --> 00:12:53,836
- No. Not a chance.
- Then where do you think they're going?
223
00:12:53,961 --> 00:12:56,255
I have no idea.
224
00:12:56,381 --> 00:12:57,799
Then why don't you think
they're going to lunch?
225
00:12:57,924 --> 00:13:00,009
Because it's not like House.
That was your point, right?
226
00:13:00,134 --> 00:13:01,427
He had that smug look
on his face.
227
00:13:01,552 --> 00:13:02,762
When he's that pleased
about something
228
00:13:02,887 --> 00:13:05,348
he's gotta tell somebody, and the
only somebody he knows is you.
229
00:13:05,473 --> 00:13:06,849
(SIGHING)
230
00:13:06,974 --> 00:13:10,561
- He's breaking into (Buddy's home.
- What?
231
00:13:10,686 --> 00:13:11,729
Why?
232
00:13:12,647 --> 00:13:14,357
Medical reasons?
233
00:13:14,482 --> 00:13:15,942
Why is he so curious
about Cuddy?
234
00:13:16,067 --> 00:13:17,443
Why are you so curious
about his curiosity?
235
00:13:17,568 --> 00:13:18,778
Why are you so curious
about me...
236
00:13:18,903 --> 00:13:21,447
Because you dumped him
and you're married
237
00:13:21,572 --> 00:13:25,118
and they are neither
of those things.
238
00:13:25,243 --> 00:13:26,577
I'm just curious.
239
00:13:27,495 --> 00:13:30,581
- Nothing wrong with that.
- No. Nothing wrong with that.
240
00:13:34,794 --> 00:13:36,754
What do you think? Red thongs?
241
00:13:38,172 --> 00:13:39,882
I think red thongs.
242
00:13:41,300 --> 00:13:45,054
Okay, 20 bucks says I can get
through this door in 20 seconds.
243
00:13:45,179 --> 00:13:46,806
- You're on.
- Count me in.
244
00:14:03,489 --> 00:14:07,535
No furniture polish, no paint thinner,
nor anything else worth sniffing.
245
00:14:07,660 --> 00:14:11,497
Nothing in here, either,
except a few cockroaches.
246
00:14:12,790 --> 00:14:16,252
Nice. Someone
should fix Alfredo's roof.
247
00:14:18,463 --> 00:14:21,757
So, why haven't you
fired House?
248
00:14:23,718 --> 00:14:27,054
It's just, you guys are always
screaming at each other,
249
00:14:27,180 --> 00:14:29,849
- and I figure you hate him, so...
- I don't hate him.
250
00:14:32,226 --> 00:14:33,227
Why not?
251
00:14:35,354 --> 00:14:37,273
He's a great doctor,
252
00:14:37,398 --> 00:14:40,276
but any other hospital administrator
would have fired him years ago.
253
00:14:40,401 --> 00:14:42,028
CUDDY: Four of them did.
254
00:14:42,153 --> 00:14:44,363
The question is,
why did I hire him?
255
00:14:45,573 --> 00:14:47,408
FOREMAN: So, how'd you know
about her key?
256
00:14:47,533 --> 00:14:50,620
You been doing a little handyman
work for Cuddy yourself?
257
00:14:50,745 --> 00:14:54,540
Someone as obsessive and insecure as
Cuddy probably has three extra keys
258
00:14:54,665 --> 00:14:56,334
hidden away
within 10 feet of the door.
259
00:14:56,459 --> 00:14:59,587
And you consider obsession
a negative quality.
260
00:15:00,505 --> 00:15:04,133
Insecticide is organic.
Soap is hypoallergenic.
261
00:15:05,593 --> 00:15:06,886
I got the bedroom.
262
00:15:12,266 --> 00:15:14,602
This is where it all happens.
263
00:15:20,608 --> 00:15:23,486
You both went to Michigan. Did you
know him while you were there?
264
00:15:23,611 --> 00:15:26,405
I was still an undergrad,
but, yeah, I knew him.
265
00:15:26,531 --> 00:15:28,115
He was already a legend.
266
00:15:29,242 --> 00:15:32,828
- So you just knew him as a legend?
- My God, you're subtle.
267
00:15:32,954 --> 00:15:34,580
Anything on your mind?
268
00:15:38,709 --> 00:15:40,711
- More cockroaches?
- Worse.
269
00:15:44,173 --> 00:15:45,258
Beautiful.
270
00:15:46,926 --> 00:15:49,845
There's no way you just
deduced where that key was.
271
00:15:49,971 --> 00:15:51,597
Does this count as red?
272
00:15:53,766 --> 00:15:56,477
You gave yourself 20 seconds
and put money on it.

Oh, my God.
274
00:15:59,105 --> 00:16:01,566
She's got pictures
of you in here.
275
00:16:01,691 --> 00:16:04,569
Just you. It's like some kind
of weird shrine.
276
00:16:04,694 --> 00:16:06,445
- You're kidding.
- Yeah.
277
00:16:13,619 --> 00:16:16,622
She uses super tampons.
What does that mean?
278
00:16:16,747 --> 00:16:20,751
You two are just too nasty to each
other not to have been nasty.
279
00:16:21,586 --> 00:16:23,879
I can be a jerk to people
I haven't slept with.
280
00:16:24,005 --> 00:16:25,381
I am that good.
281
00:16:26,340 --> 00:16:27,633
There's nothing here.

more stuff you wanna sniff?

garden-variety pneumonia.

00:17:00,541 --> 00:17:03,002
I'm glad you learned to take
his impending death in stride.
288
00:17:03,127 --> 00:17:05,129
- Guess what he does have.
- Rats.
289
00:17:06,589 --> 00:17:08,674
- Scars on his hand.
- Rat bites.
290
00:17:08,799 --> 00:17:10,635
But he says
they're from construction work
291
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,846
so he won't have to admit
he's got rats at home.
292
00:17:13,971 --> 00:17:15,598
Catholics are right.
Pride will kill you.
293
00:17:15,723 --> 00:17:16,849
He has streptobacillus.
294
00:17:16,974 --> 00:17:18,059
Rat-bite fever.

- Boogie oogie oogie.
- Fits the symptoms perfectly.
296
00:17:20,603 --> 00:17:22,480
That's certainly
one possibility.
297
00:17:22,605 --> 00:17:25,691
But what about the aspergillus
fungus we found under the sink?
298
00:17:25,816 --> 00:17:29,320
- What sink?
- You should clean your bathroom better.
299
00:17:29,445 --> 00:17:31,489
You broke into my house?
300
00:17:31,614 --> 00:17:34,992
No. No. You're wrong.
I had a key.
301
00:17:35,117 --> 00:17:36,994
You had no right
to invade my privacy.
302
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,121
There was no medical reason
for that whatsoever,
303
00:17:39,246 --> 00:17:41,207
and there was certainly
no moral reason for it.
304
00:17:41,332 --> 00:17:43,167
Oh, damn.
305
00:17:43,793 --> 00:17:45,503
You're right.
306
00:17:45,628 --> 00:17:48,255
The focal consolidation makes
fungal pneumonia far more likely.
307
00:17:48,381 --> 00:17:49,590
You're right I'm right.
308
00:17:49,715 --> 00:17:53,469
On the bright side, it has the advantage
of keeping you totally responsible.
309
00:17:53,594 --> 00:17:55,471
The treatment for aspergillus
is amphotericin.
310
00:17:55,596 --> 00:17:58,641
- That's hugely dangerous.
- Yeah? Your point being?
311
00:17:58,766 --> 00:18:01,477
Going the dangerous and aggressive
route didn't work the last time.
312
00:18:01,602 --> 00:18:04,980
It's bound to work this time.

00:19:31,317 --> 00:19:33,694
unless you also believe
you're all-powerful.
338
00:19:33,819 --> 00:19:35,571
Wow, does she sound messed up.
339
00:19:35,696 --> 00:19:38,449
I don't believe
I can fix everything.
340
00:19:38,574 --> 00:19:40,910
And I don't lie awake at night,
torlnented by that fact.
341
00:19:41,035 --> 00:19:42,745
No. You lie awake
tormented by how...
342
00:19:42,870 --> 00:19:44,872
I thought we were talking
about Cuddy here.
343
00:19:44,997 --> 00:19:46,165
She cares.
344
00:19:47,291 --> 00:19:49,293
She enjoys feeling guilty.
345
00:19:49,418 --> 00:19:53,172
Lisa cares. It's why she drives you nuts.
'Cause it's not just a puzzle to her.
346
00:19:53,297 --> 00:19:54,507
The patients
are actually real,
347
00:19:54,632 --> 00:19:56,342
their feelings
actually relevant.
348
00:19:56,467 --> 00:19:59,512
And I'm telling her
she can't even talk to him.
349
00:19:59,637 --> 00:20:02,723
My God, it's contagious.
You're feeling guilty, too.
350
00:20:02,848 --> 00:20:05,810
I'm just saying, take it easy on her.
You owe her that.
351
00:20:05,935 --> 00:20:07,937
MAN ON 'N: From the moment
I saw you at the El...
352
00:20:08,604 --> 00:20:11,565
- Commercial's over.
- So glad we talked.
353
00:20:12,608 --> 00:20:14,568
Snap, crackle, pop.
354
00:20:15,861 --> 00:20:18,113
You got some
Rice Krispies in there?
355
00:20:18,906 --> 00:20:20,491
That bad, huh?
356
00:20:20,616 --> 00:20:22,493
You were here yesterday.
357
00:20:22,618 --> 00:20:26,914
I see from the chart that Dr. Foreman
prescribed medicine, not a miracle.
358
00:20:27,039 --> 00:20:28,374
Got to give this stuff
more than a day.
359
00:20:28,499 --> 00:20:30,709
I didn't fill
that Ono's prescription.
360
00:20:31,919 --> 00:20:35,089
On the theory that you didn't
trust him because he's black.
361
00:20:35,214 --> 00:20:39,009
Well, I'm gonna prescribe the same
medicine and see if you fill it this time.
362
00:20:39,134 --> 00:20:41,512
I'm not buying
into no racist drug, okay?
363

(SCOFFING)
364
00:20:42,805 --> 00:20:46,350
It's racist because it helps black
people more than white people?
365
00:20:46,475 --> 00:20:49,728
On behalf of my peeps, let me just say
thanks for dying on principle for us.
366
00:20:49,854 --> 00:20:52,481
Look, my heart's red.
Your heart's red.
367
00:20:52,606 --> 00:20:54,775
And it don't make no sense
to give us different drugs.
368
00:20:54,900 --> 00:20:57,444
You know,
I have found a difference.
369
00:20:57,570 --> 00:20:58,779
Admittedly,
it's a limited sample,
370
00:20:58,904 --> 00:21:01,657
but based on my experience
of the last 90 seconds,
371
00:21:01,782 --> 00:21:04,243
all black people are morons.
372
00:21:04,368 --> 00:21:07,413
- Sorry, African-Americans.
- I'll see another doctor.
373
00:21:08,998 --> 00:21:10,416
Fine. Fine.
374
00:21:14,753 --> 00:21:17,631
I'll give you the same
medicine we give Republicans.
375
00:21:22,177 --> 00:21:24,221
ALFREDO: I think the medicine
is working.
376
00:21:26,181 --> 00:21:27,516
They're lighter, right?
377
00:21:27,641 --> 00:21:30,436
They don't look lighter to me, Alfredo.
How's the tingling?
378
00:21:30,561 --> 00:21:33,188
- Does not bother me.
- Tell her the other thing.

(SPEAKING IN SPANISH)
380
00:21:36,358 --> 00:21:38,360
He hasn't peed
since yesterday.
381
00:21:39,737 --> 00:21:41,780
- Since last night?
- Afternoon.
382
00:21:41,906 --> 00:21:44,617
It's not a problem.
I don't drink much.
383
00:21:46,744 --> 00:21:49,955
I think we'll give you a little
rest from the meds here.

that's supposed to cure me".

00:21:56,170 --> 00:21:58,631
Just making a little adjustment.
Excuse me.
387
00:22:01,592 --> 00:22:02,968
He's not making any urine.
388
00:22:03,093 --> 00:22:05,930
I think we just destroyed the kid's
kidney with the amphotericin.
389
00:22:06,055 --> 00:22:07,806
I think he's dying.
390
00:22:07,932 --> 00:22:09,516
Dying?
391
00:22:09,642 --> 00:22:11,226

394
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:26,700
CAMERON:
His kidneys are shutting down
395
00:22:26,825 --> 00:22:29,828
due to the direct toxicity to
the proximal tubule epithelium.
396
00:22:29,954 --> 00:22:33,207
Proof that my brilliant idea of giving
him amphotericin is killing him.
397
00:22:33,332 --> 00:22:35,125
That wasn't a complete
waste of time.
398
00:22:35,250 --> 00:22:38,087
His reaction shows that you don't
need to clean under your sink.
399
00:22:38,212 --> 00:22:39,171
It wasn't aspergillus.
400
00:22:39,296 --> 00:22:41,757
And blood cultures show he was
negative for rat-bite fever.
401
00:22:41,882 --> 00:22:44,259
There's still plenty of other
cool pneumonias.
402
00:22:44,385 --> 00:22:47,680
Tested negative for Moraxella,
Nocardia, cryptococcus.
403
00:22:47,805 --> 00:22:50,432
He has a low titer for
chlamydia antibodies. Maybe...
404
00:22:50,557 --> 00:22:53,143
No, no. His chest x-ray's all
wrong for ohlamydial pneumonia.
405
00:22:53,268 --> 00:22:54,269
But the titer points to...
406
00:22:54,395 --> 00:22:56,855
CAMERON: He had an STD last year.
That explains the titer.
407
00:22:56,981 --> 00:22:58,732
He has low sodium.
Maybe it's Legionella.
408
00:22:58,857 --> 00:23:00,985
No. His antigen is negative.
409
00:23:01,694 --> 00:23:03,195
Well, that all sucks.
410
00:23:04,279 --> 00:23:06,490
Maybe we were right
to begin with.
411
00:23:06,615 --> 00:23:11,078
His problems are all caused by DIC
precipitated by falling off my roof.
412
00:23:11,203 --> 00:23:13,455
DIC wouldn't cause
a fever this high.

See? My lap dog
agrees with me.
414
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,001
How high?

it was 103 with acetaminophen.

now is his temperature right now.

- Right one hurt?
- No, I feel better.

We are talking about
cutting off a kid's hand.
436
00:24:24,568 --> 00:24:26,153
Yes, we're talking
about cutting it off,
437
00:24:26,278 --> 00:24:28,155
not subdividing it
and putting in condos.
438
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,450
- It's not a legal issue.
- Are you being intentionally dense?
439
00:24:32,743 --> 00:24:33,911
I think it's premature.
440
00:24:34,036 --> 00:24:35,370
- I've heard enough.
- What?
441
00:24:35,496 --> 00:24:37,372
She says one word
and you take her side.
442
00:24:37,498 --> 00:24:40,167
You should at least wait until she
actually gives a medical reason.
443
00:24:40,292 --> 00:24:43,170
- Otherwise I might take it personally.
- Shut up.

that you two were in disagreement

for my client in court.

Why don't we pick this conversation
up in half an hour? Okay?
449
00:24:58,769 --> 00:25:01,230
All of his symptoms are caused
by his underlying problem
450
00:25:01,355 --> 00:25:02,731
and the medicine we gave him.
451
00:25:02,856 --> 00:25:03,857
What underlying problem?
452
00:25:03,982 --> 00:25:05,692
You have no idea what the
underlying problem is.
453
00:25:05,818 --> 00:25:08,112
- You're the diagnostician.
- Fine. It's all my fault.

00:25:08,237 --> 00:25:09,321
Does that make you
feel better?

His hand still has
an arterial pulse.

His hand is a cesspool.
And the crap is spreading.
457
00:25:14,118 --> 00:25:17,579
You are being pretty aggressive about
destroying a man's livelihood.
458

I don't give a damn
about his livelihood.

his job, all of his jobs.

- He's not like us...
- Can't work as a cripple?

He loses his home.

- His kid brother drops out.
- An American dream destroyed.

00:25:33,387 --> 00:25:34,763
Very sad, very emotional,
464

not one medical fact
in the whole pathetic tale.
465
00:25:38,809 --> 00:25:39,935
You have lost perspective,
Cuddy.
466
00:25:40,060 --> 00:25:41,728
You've stopped looking
at this as a doctor.
467
00:25:41,854 --> 00:25:44,690
You're acting like someone who
shoved somebody off their roof.
468

You wanna make things right?
Too bad, nothing's ever right.

that we're now so in sync

Is this true?
HOUSE: No. I'm lying.

00:25:59,705 --> 00:26:01,790
It's stupid to do it with her
in the room, I guess.
474
00:26:01,915 --> 00:26:03,876
- This is a big decision.
- We made it.
475
00:26:04,001 --> 00:26:05,878
We should convene a meeting
of the ethics committee.
476
00:26:06,003 --> 00:26:07,087
No!
477
00:26:08,255 --> 00:26:11,758
Look, she is making a medical decision
based on never wanting to feel regret.
478
00:26:11,884 --> 00:26:14,386
You're making a legal decision
based on wanting me to be wrong.
479
00:26:14,511 --> 00:26:15,971
Greg, you have
a history of aggressive...
480
00:26:16,096 --> 00:26:17,514
You wanted
superficial agreement.
481
00:26:17,639 --> 00:26:19,516
You wanted everybody's asses covered.
You got it.
482
00:26:19,641 --> 00:26:22,436
Now can I do the surgery?
Pretty, pretty please.
483
00:26:26,940 --> 00:26:27,941
Lisa,
484
00:26:29,568 --> 00:26:31,778
are you sure
you're okay with this?
485
00:26:34,615 --> 00:26:37,075
I should be the one
to tell the family.
486
00:26:44,124 --> 00:26:45,667
Your hand is dying.
487
00:26:47,294 --> 00:26:49,171
The bacteria are eating it.
488
00:26:50,589 --> 00:26:54,092
When they run out of food
there, they go somewhere else.
489
00:26:55,969 --> 00:26:58,972
If you cut off my hand,
I'll be cured?
490
00:26:59,097 --> 00:27:00,849
Unfortunately, no.
491
00:27:00,974 --> 00:27:04,895
We still have to find the disease
that's making you sick to begin with.
492
00:27:05,020 --> 00:27:07,940
But you won't die of gangrene
while we're looking.

when I am 12 to get a job,

00:27:18,325 --> 00:27:20,077
to help my family.
496
00:27:21,495 --> 00:27:24,039
I know I never get a good job,
497
00:27:25,082 --> 00:27:29,086
never save money
or own my own house like you.
498
00:27:31,213 --> 00:27:34,216
But, Manny, he's smart.
499
00:27:36,093 --> 00:27:37,886
He's the best in his class.
500
00:27:39,805 --> 00:27:43,100
Well, maybe Manny doesn't have
to quit school. Maybe you can...
501
00:27:53,068 --> 00:27:56,071
Are you sure
I need to do this?
502

Yes.
503
00:28:03,745 --> 00:28:04,746

you see the world as it could be.
673
00:40:19,313 --> 00:40:21,941
And what you don't see
is what everybody else sees,
674
00:40:23,026 --> 00:40:25,528
the giant gaping chasm
in between.
675
00:40:25,653 --> 00:40:27,613
House, I'm not naive.
I realize...
676
00:40:27,739 --> 00:40:30,283
If you did,
you never would have hired me.
677
00:40:33,911 --> 00:40:37,498
You're not happy
unless things are just right,
678
00:40:37,623 --> 00:40:39,167
which means two things.
679
00:40:39,959 --> 00:40:43,796
That you're a good boss,
and you'll never be happy.
680
00:40:48,801 --> 00:40:52,472
By the way, why does everybody
think you and I had sex?
681
00:40:53,222 --> 00:40:55,558
You think there could be
something to it?
682
00:41:05,777 --> 00:41:09,447
WILSON: Cuddy feels guilty about not
diagnosing psittacosis any earlier?
683
00:41:12,116 --> 00:41:13,367
I think so.
684
00:41:14,744 --> 00:41:16,662
There's no way
she could have.
685
00:41:17,330 --> 00:41:18,456
No.
686
00:41:20,458 --> 00:41:21,959
No way she could have.
687
00:41:25,004 --> 00:41:26,631
(SLOW ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)
688
00:41:33,221 --> 00:41:34,514
It's raining.
