The funny thing is,
25
00:02:07,858 --> 00:02:10,193
is that the brace cost more

00:09:35,722 --> 00:09:37,640
If it changes color
in the next 48 hours...
167
00:09:37,765 --> 00:09:42,228
Yeah, if House doesn't think it's TB,
why would he have you test for that?
168
00:09:42,353 --> 00:09:45,440
Just covering
all his bases, I guess.
169
00:09:45,565 --> 00:09:46,816
Uh-huh.
170
00:09:48,359 --> 00:09:51,112
He doesn't seem
like a guy who does that.
171
00:09:53,198 --> 00:09:56,534
We have you scheduled for a 10:30 echo.
172
00:09:56,659 --> 00:09:57,535
Good for you.
173
00:09:58,661 --> 00:09:59,746
(LAUGHING)
174
00:10:02,540 --> 00:10:05,168
Every minute that we refuse
to love one another,
175
00:10:05,293 --> 00:10:07,587
another puppy
cries another tear.
176
00:10:08,296 --> 00:10:11,132
You're just mad because he's closer
to a Nobel Prize than you are.
177
00:10:11,257 --> 00:10:15,386
And yet I've nailed more Swedish babes.
Crazy, crazy world.
178
00:10:16,221 --> 00:10:18,598
It's not just a trip
to Stockholm, you know.
179
00:10:18,723 --> 00:10:20,850
It comes with a cash prize.
180
00:10:20,975 --> 00:10:22,393
Seriously?
181
00:10:22,518 --> 00:10:25,521
No wonder everybody's
going after that peace thing.
182
00:10:25,647 --> 00:10:27,357
He cures thousands
of people every year.
183
00:10:27,482 --> 00:10:29,234
You cure what, 30?
184
00:10:29,359 --> 00:10:33,321
McDonald's makes a better hamburger than
your mother because they make more?
185
00:10:33,446 --> 00:10:35,156
Oh, I see.
186
00:10:35,281 --> 00:10:39,577
So you hate him because the lives he saves
aren't as good as the lives you save?
187
00:10:39,702 --> 00:10:41,621
Yeah, that's the reason.
188
00:10:41,746 --> 00:10:45,208
Nobel invented dynamite. I
won't accept his blood money.
189
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,585
(WOMAN ON PA)
190
00:10:47,710 --> 00:10:50,213
The top of my head's
killing me.
191
00:10:52,966 --> 00:10:56,261
We spent a week doing
"top of head" in anatomy.
192
00:10:56,386 --> 00:10:58,137
I know just where it is.
193
00:10:59,681 --> 00:11:00,974
(GROANS)
194
00:11:01,099 --> 00:11:04,727
- That is not the top of my head.
- Close enough for clinic.
195
00:11:05,353 --> 00:11:07,272
Your sinuses are clogged.
196
00:11:07,397 --> 00:11:11,150
Judging by the scratches on your
hands, I'm guessing a new cat.
197
00:11:11,276 --> 00:11:13,611
It was my mother's.
She's dead.
198
00:11:13,736 --> 00:11:15,738
You keep a dead cat?
199
00:11:15,863 --> 00:11:18,616
No. My mother's dead.
200
00:11:20,368 --> 00:11:22,245
Poor cat. You're allergic.
201
00:11:22,370 --> 00:11:24,247
We can control it
with antihistamine.
202
00:11:24,372 --> 00:11:26,374
- One pill a day.
- Pills?
203
00:11:27,375 --> 00:11:30,253
You don't like to swallow.
Not surprised.
204
00:11:30,378 --> 00:11:33,172
Forget the pills.
We'll give you a nasal spray.
205
00:11:33,298 --> 00:11:34,757
Steroids?
206
00:11:34,882 --> 00:11:37,552
Is there something else
you can give me?
207
00:11:39,053 --> 00:11:41,806
Well, if you live
by the river, I've got a bag.
208
00:11:43,266 --> 00:11:45,393
Hey. Stress test was normal.
209
00:11:46,019 --> 00:11:49,647
- But his EKG was not normal.
- Echo's normal.
210
00:11:49,772 --> 00:11:52,942
Two for you, one for me.
We need a tiebreaker.
211
00:11:53,067 --> 00:11:55,361
Echo and stress tests are more reliable.
212
00:11:55,486 --> 00:11:56,863
Tilt table tests.
213
00:11:56,988 --> 00:11:58,698
That never works.
214
00:11:58,823 --> 00:12:01,242
I'll bet you
a week's clinic duty it does.
215
00:12:01,367 --> 00:12:02,577
(LAUGHS)
216
00:12:02,702 --> 00:12:03,828
You're on.
217
00:12:07,290 --> 00:12:08,875
You like this guy?
218
00:12:09,584 --> 00:12:13,046
FOREMAN: You always tell us our
opinion of the patient's irrelevant.
219
00:12:13,171 --> 00:12:16,716
Medically, it's irrelevant.
it says something about you.
220
00:12:16,841 --> 00:12:20,803
You figure anybody who gives a crap about
people in Africa must be full of it?
221
00:12:20,928 --> 00:12:21,929
Yes.
222
00:12:22,722 --> 00:12:27,268
There's an evolutionary imperative why we
give a crap about our family and friends.
223
00:12:27,393 --> 00:12:30,980
And there's an evolutionary imperative why
we don't give a crap about anybody else.
224
00:12:31,105 --> 00:12:34,317
If we loved all people indiscriminately,
we couldn't function.
225
00:12:34,442 --> 00:12:37,945
So the great humanitarian's
as selfish as the rest of us?
226
00:12:38,071 --> 00:12:40,239
Just not as honest about it.
227
00:12:40,365 --> 00:12:44,077
Well, you also always tell us
motives are irrelevant.
228
00:12:44,202 --> 00:12:48,206
Dr. Charles, your heart's handling the
changes in orientation just fine.
229
00:12:48,331 --> 00:12:49,332
No pauses on your EKG.
230
00:12:49,457 --> 00:12:53,628
And House drives in for
the lay-up and no, rejected!
231
00:12:54,545 --> 00:12:57,632
- What does this knobby thing do?
- I'm within protocol range.
232
00:12:57,757 --> 00:12:59,258
You're not gonna
get a different result.
233
00:12:59,384 --> 00:13:03,679
The way I figure it is, this
could show you problems at six,
234
00:13:03,805 --> 00:13:06,140
imagine what it'll tell you
if you crank it to 10.
235
00:13:06,265 --> 00:13:08,810
- House, is that you?
- Does it go to 11?
236
00:13:08,935 --> 00:13:12,271
Would you stop? You lost. I'm scheduled
for clinic duty Thursday and Friday.
237
00:13:12,397 --> 00:13:14,148
All right, I'm beginning
to feel nauseous.
238
00:13:14,273 --> 00:13:16,526
Would you turn the damn thing
off before you break it?
239
00:13:16,651 --> 00:13:18,569
SEBASTIAN: Okay,
I'm getting dizzy.
240
00:13:18,694 --> 00:13:21,322
I can't see
and I'm gonna pass out.
241
00:13:22,657 --> 00:13:25,827
- I win.
- At those speeds, astronauts throw up.
242
00:13:25,952 --> 00:13:27,954
I'm not talking
about the nausea.
243
00:13:28,079 --> 00:13:31,249
- The test revealed the problem.
- Yeah? House is insane?
244
00:13:31,374 --> 00:13:33,960
- What he just did...
- Abusive and unprofessional.
245
00:13:34,085 --> 00:13:37,422
If he hadn't done it, we
wouldn't have seen the problem.
246
00:13:37,547 --> 00:13:40,258
You've got
an abnormal PR interval.
247
00:13:40,383 --> 00:13:43,594
It could be dangerous, possibly fatal,
particularly if you're in Africa
248
00:13:43,719 --> 00:13:45,263
away from advanced medicine.
249
00:13:45,388 --> 00:13:47,598
I'm gonna need a pacemaker?
250
00:13:47,723 --> 00:13:50,226
You're scheduled
for surgery this afternoon.
251
00:13:56,441 --> 00:13:59,026
We'll be able to maintain
your pacemaker from anywhere.
252
00:13:59,152 --> 00:14:01,279
You just need to get yourself to
a phone line every few months.
253
00:14:01,404 --> 00:14:04,449
Better yet, you could join me
at one of my clinics.
254
00:14:04,574 --> 00:14:07,285
- I'm kind of spoiled.
- Well, we'll get you a hut with a view.
255
00:14:07,410 --> 00:14:10,079
- Do you like sand?
- I meant medically.
256
00:14:10,204 --> 00:14:13,040
- No PET scans, no MRls...
- This is ridiculous.
257
00:14:13,166 --> 00:14:15,293
- Dr. Charles...
- I know. I know. Hospital regulations.
258
00:14:15,418 --> 00:14:17,837
Darling, have a seat.
Come on.
259
00:14:17,962 --> 00:14:20,506
You're smart. You'll adapt.
260
00:14:20,631 --> 00:14:22,925
- We're going up or down?
- Basement.
261
00:14:23,050 --> 00:14:24,260
All right.
262
00:14:24,385 --> 00:14:27,263
You might even find that without
the technological crutches,
263
00:14:27,388 --> 00:14:28,848
you become
a better diagnostician.
264
00:14:28,973 --> 00:14:30,391
My heart
can handle this, right?
265
00:14:30,516 --> 00:14:33,603
So far, just carnival rides
have set you off.
266
00:14:34,562 --> 00:14:37,398
When you meet these people,
it changes you.
267
00:14:38,357 --> 00:14:40,401
We should
talk about it over dinner.
268
00:14:42,069 --> 00:14:44,655
Are you asking me
to Africa or on a date?
269
00:14:44,780 --> 00:14:49,285
I can ask you halfway around the world, I
can't ask you to a restaurant a block away?
270
00:14:49,410 --> 00:14:53,164
- Well, one's a job, and the other's...
- Yeah, hospital regs.
271
00:14:53,289 --> 00:14:58,252
You can't date patients, right? I wouldn't
wanna risk your precious objectivity.
272
00:14:58,377 --> 00:15:01,672
You haven't answered
either question, by the way.
273
00:15:01,797 --> 00:15:04,383
You don't think
objectivity's important?
274
00:15:04,509 --> 00:15:06,677
I think doctors like House
cling to objectivity
275
00:15:06,802 --> 00:15:10,014
like a three-year-old to a blanket.
Don't get too worked up.
276
00:15:10,139 --> 00:15:14,060
Stay calm. Stay cool and maintain
the correct perspective.
277
00:15:14,185 --> 00:15:18,105
The only flaw in their argument is that
when you have millions of people dying,
278
00:15:18,231 --> 00:15:21,734
the correct perspective is to be
yelling at the top of your lungs.
279
00:15:25,112 --> 00:15:28,407
- Sorry. My head is killing me.
- Here, sit on the step.
280
00:15:33,579 --> 00:15:36,666
So, are you gonna go out
with me or not?
281
00:15:36,791 --> 00:15:38,292
Your heart rate's normal.
282
00:15:38,417 --> 00:15:42,004
Yeah, of course it is. It's one
flight of stairs. I'm gonna be fine.
283
00:15:44,173 --> 00:15:46,217
Hand's a little...
284
00:15:47,677 --> 00:15:49,011
(VOMITING)
285
00:15:52,723 --> 00:15:55,643
Call a code,
second floor stairwell!
286
00:16:02,567 --> 00:16:05,987
- You were wrong.
- Hey, I have feelings.
287
00:16:06,112 --> 00:16:08,823
I'm trying my best.
Isn't that enough for you?
288
00:16:08,948 --> 00:16:12,243
- The abnormal EKG was real.
- It's not sick sinus syndrome.
289
00:16:12,368 --> 00:16:15,496
Thank God we found out before
we put the pacemaker in.
290
00:16:15,621 --> 00:16:18,874
And thank God you dragged him into a
stairwell to get his heart racing.
291
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,335
We were taking the stairs. They
keep them in the stairwell.
292
00:16:21,460 --> 00:16:23,379
The guy's a selfish jerk.
Why would you...
293
00:16:23,504 --> 00:16:24,839
Why would you say
he's selfish?
294
00:16:24,964 --> 00:16:26,173
Because he's been talking to Foreman.
295
00:16:26,299 --> 00:16:28,092
No, I haven't.
I'm just giving my opinion.
296
00:16:28,217 --> 00:16:30,469
(PHONE RINGING) This kind of
altruism doesn't just naturally...
297
00:16:30,595 --> 00:16:31,554
Excellent briefing.
298
00:16:31,679 --> 00:16:33,639
Hey, the guy's still sick.
Can we talk about that?
299
00:16:33,764 --> 00:16:36,767
Now, headaches point to a neurological
problem. Acoustic neuroma.
300
00:16:36,892 --> 00:16:39,604
A brain tumor causes dizziness,
loss of consciousness,
301
00:16:39,729 --> 00:16:41,689
messes with breathing
patterns, heart rhythms...
302
00:16:41,814 --> 00:16:42,898
Get an MRI.
303
00:16:43,024 --> 00:16:44,275
HOUSE: Hello?
304
00:16:45,359 --> 00:16:48,863
Oh, I'm sorry. I'll be right down.
No problem.
305
00:16:48,988 --> 00:16:51,073
I'll do an extra hour
to make up.
306
00:16:52,199 --> 00:16:54,535
I'm late for my clinic duty.
307
00:16:54,660 --> 00:16:57,204
Here, go be me
for a couple of hours.
308
00:17:01,500 --> 00:17:04,879
Explosive diarrhea, fever,
it's probably the flu.
309
00:17:05,004 --> 00:17:09,425
Wow. You're good.
You a Harvard boy?
310
00:17:09,550 --> 00:17:12,803
- You're not Hill, Oliver.
- No.
311
00:17:12,928 --> 00:17:14,847
Carter, Cecelia.
312
00:17:14,972 --> 00:17:16,682
They put you in the wrong room, Cecelia.
313
00:17:16,807 --> 00:17:19,477
- Mrs. Carter.
- Sorry.
314
00:17:20,478 --> 00:17:21,854
I'll just be
a few more minutes.
315
00:17:21,979 --> 00:17:23,898
Don't take these in order,
everything falls apart.
316
00:17:24,023 --> 00:17:25,358
I have cancer.
317
00:17:26,984 --> 00:17:28,194
I felt a lump.
318
00:17:28,944 --> 00:17:31,947
- I'll go get a nurse.
- Yeah, see you in an hour or two.
319
00:17:34,241 --> 00:17:35,618
Lie flat.
320
00:17:39,997 --> 00:17:43,167
Lift your left arm up
and under your head.
321
00:17:48,381 --> 00:17:50,007
- Right there?
- Yeah.
322
00:17:50,132 --> 00:17:52,176
I felt it this morning.
323
00:17:52,301 --> 00:17:55,012
Oh, my cousin
had the same thing.
324
00:17:56,013 --> 00:17:56,972
It's nothing.
325
00:17:57,098 --> 00:17:58,891
We should check it again
on your next cycle,
326
00:17:59,016 --> 00:18:01,602
but you really don't have
anything to worry about.
327
00:18:01,727 --> 00:18:03,104
That's what they told Donna.
328
00:18:03,229 --> 00:18:06,232
- She was dead in six months.
- Listen, the edges are smooth.
329
00:18:06,357 --> 00:18:08,818
It has mobility. It has all
the earmarks of a benign...
330
00:18:08,943 --> 00:18:10,903
Why should I believe you?
331
00:18:11,028 --> 00:18:13,572
Because you're trying
to rush me out of here?
332
00:18:13,698 --> 00:18:16,575
The risks of a false positive
on a biopsy outweigh...
333
00:18:16,701 --> 00:18:20,121
Either you do the biopsy,
or I talk to your superior.
334
00:18:20,246 --> 00:18:23,499
Which is it, Dr. House?
335
00:18:26,460 --> 00:18:29,004
- I'll arrange the biopsy.
- Thanks.
336
00:18:38,347 --> 00:18:42,017
- CAMERON: He asked me out.
- I'm shocked.
337
00:18:44,019 --> 00:18:46,564
I'm shocked when patients
don't ask you out.
338
00:18:49,275 --> 00:18:51,902
He also asked me
to come to Africa.
339
00:18:52,945 --> 00:18:54,864
Boy, he moves fast.
340
00:18:54,989 --> 00:18:57,366
I think the two questions
had two different objectives.
341
00:18:57,491 --> 00:18:58,576
Do you like him?
342
00:18:58,701 --> 00:19:01,871
Good-looking single guy,
genius doctor,
343
00:19:01,996 --> 00:19:04,999
- cares about the world.
- I take it you said no.
344
00:19:05,124 --> 00:19:08,169
- You think I'm that hung up on rules?
- He's not House.
345
00:19:08,919 --> 00:19:10,421
There's nothing there.
346
00:19:17,678 --> 00:19:19,513
Yeah, there is.
347
00:19:21,140 --> 00:19:23,100
Did I ask you to plant a PPD?
348
00:19:23,225 --> 00:19:25,311
It was positive. He's got TB!
349
00:19:25,436 --> 00:19:29,482
Well, of course he's got TB. The guy's
been in the jungle for 20 years.
350
00:19:31,066 --> 00:19:34,403
If he tested positive for pinkeye, would
you think that was his big problem?
351
00:19:34,528 --> 00:19:36,906
I did a test. it was positive.
Why is that a problem?
352
00:19:37,031 --> 00:19:39,617
Because now he's got
the big red target on his arm,
353
00:19:39,742 --> 00:19:42,411
the stubborn jerk thinks he's right.
He won't let us do any more tests.
354
00:19:42,536 --> 00:19:44,872
Well, maybe he's not
the only stubborn jerk.
355
00:19:44,997 --> 00:19:48,292
I did an LP, too. Low glucose, and
he has an increased sed rate.
356
00:19:48,417 --> 00:19:51,587
- Everything screams tuberculosis!
- Not everything!
357
00:19:51,712 --> 00:19:56,008
If any of the symptoms are caused by the
TB, it would throw off our diagnosis.
358
00:20:00,387 --> 00:20:03,974
You're right.
We gotta treat the TB.
359
00:20:05,267 --> 00:20:07,895
Who knows?
Maybe he'll just get better.
360
00:20:08,020 --> 00:20:10,022
You'd like that, wouldn't you?
361
00:20:18,614 --> 00:20:21,867
So, it's TB, but not TB?
362
00:20:21,992 --> 00:20:25,871
- I'm complicated.
- The guy does know tuberculosis.
363
00:20:25,996 --> 00:20:28,374
- If he says it can manifest...
- The guy's not even a real doctor.
364
00:20:28,499 --> 00:20:31,377
- He's a human telethon.
- Is that your problem with him?
365
00:20:31,502 --> 00:20:33,879
You see hypocrites every day.
Why is this guy so special?
366
00:20:34,004 --> 00:20:36,590
You think I have a hypocritical
attitude to hypocrisy?
367
00:20:36,715 --> 00:20:40,261
The problem is, there are 26 letters in the
alphabet and he only uses two of them.
368
00:20:40,386 --> 00:20:42,513
He treats thousands of
patients with one diagnosis.
369
00:20:42,638 --> 00:20:44,598
He knows the answer
going in. It's cheating.
370
00:20:44,723 --> 00:20:48,561
So it's all because he's one
of them useless specialists?
371
00:20:49,687 --> 00:20:53,399
Oh, did I hurt the big-time
oncologisfs itty-bitty feelings?
372
00:20:53,524 --> 00:20:56,193
HOUSE: You're a big help to
patients who actually have cancer.
373
00:20:56,318 --> 00:20:59,864
- Other times you're just annoying.
- You've outdone yourself.
374
00:20:59,989 --> 00:21:03,033
I'll say. My salad's covering
a free T-bone steak.
375
00:21:03,158 --> 00:21:05,286
Cecelia Carter, remember her?
376
00:21:05,411 --> 00:21:07,872
Last week they said it was
mystery stew. They owe me.
377
00:21:07,997 --> 00:21:11,417
She was just in my office crying
because of the way you treated her.
378
00:21:11,542 --> 00:21:12,877
That doesn't sound like you.
379
00:21:13,002 --> 00:21:14,795
Then it probably wasn't.
380
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,840
I get that you like
to shock people,
381
00:21:17,965 --> 00:21:21,218
stun them out of complacency,
out of stupidity.
382
00:21:21,343 --> 00:21:23,304
But this woman thought
she had cancer.
383
00:21:23,429 --> 00:21:26,765
She had a lump in her breast. What
were you trying to accomplish?
384
00:21:26,891 --> 00:21:30,311
Let me ask you something.
If this were another doctor,
385
00:21:30,436 --> 00:21:33,939
if the patient were complaining about,
let's say, I don't know, Foreman,
386
00:21:34,064 --> 00:21:37,902
you'd just dismiss this as the paranoid
bitching of another paranoid bitch.
387
00:21:38,027 --> 00:21:40,404
- And file it under "P" for...
- Paranoid?
388
00:21:40,529 --> 00:21:41,822
Am not.
389
00:21:43,532 --> 00:21:44,909
- You're right.
- Good.
390
00:21:45,034 --> 00:21:48,120
Apologize to her before the
end of business today.
391
00:21:50,289 --> 00:21:53,042
- What did you do to Ceci?
- I have no idea.
392
00:21:53,709 --> 00:21:56,211
Just the salad today.
Big breakfast.
393
00:21:56,337 --> 00:21:57,504
Hey.
394
00:22:01,258 --> 00:22:02,843
Levofloxacin?
395
00:22:03,886 --> 00:22:06,013
You have
a resistant strain of TB.
396
00:22:06,931 --> 00:22:08,807
Wow, you just
walk right in with these.
397
00:22:08,933 --> 00:22:10,684
That's what we doctors do.
398
00:22:10,809 --> 00:22:14,104
We write down the name of some
medicine, and someone gives it to us.
399
00:22:14,229 --> 00:22:19,109
You know, there's parts of the world where
you get knifed walking around with this.
400
00:22:19,234 --> 00:22:21,987
I mean, the regular stuff
is bad enough,
401
00:22:22,112 --> 00:22:24,740
but the treatment
for the resistant strain?
402
00:22:24,865 --> 00:22:25,991
(WHISTLES)
403
00:22:27,785 --> 00:22:30,204
They get $6 a tablet for that.
404
00:22:30,329 --> 00:22:33,040
And I take it for two years.
405
00:22:33,165 --> 00:22:36,168
Streptomycin.
Now, that's two grand.
406
00:22:38,671 --> 00:22:40,547
Ten grand, cure one person.
407
00:22:47,596 --> 00:22:51,016
I had a patient in Djani once.
408
00:22:52,017 --> 00:22:56,897
It was a mother,
had three little boys.
409
00:22:57,022 --> 00:22:59,024
She had resistant TB.
410
00:23:00,693 --> 00:23:02,903
She couldn't afford these.
411
00:23:03,028 --> 00:23:05,030
She couldn't afford bread.
412
00:23:06,448 --> 00:23:09,034
We gave her
the regular stuff, but
413
00:23:11,286 --> 00:23:14,331
- no surprise, she died.
- Sorry.
414
00:23:24,925 --> 00:23:26,635
I'm not taking these pills.
415
00:23:28,178 --> 00:23:31,724
Because she couldn't get them,
you're not gonna take them?
416
00:23:31,849 --> 00:23:33,142
- That's insane.
- Why?
417
00:23:33,267 --> 00:23:35,894
- 'Cause I'm better than her?
- Because letting her die was wrong,
418
00:23:36,020 --> 00:23:38,605
but letting you die
is just as wrong.
419
00:23:39,648 --> 00:23:41,025
Maybe I won't die.
420
00:23:41,900 --> 00:23:45,029
Maybe somebody will pay a little
more attention to my story.
421
00:23:51,035 --> 00:23:52,911
He figures
the pharmaceutical companies
422
00:23:53,037 --> 00:23:54,705
(PHONE RINGING) need something
big to force them into action.
423
00:23:54,830 --> 00:23:57,958
This'll get a lot more media play
than 1,000 African villagers dying.
424
00:23:58,083 --> 00:23:59,752
So, he won't take the pills.
425
00:23:59,877 --> 00:24:02,588
- Newsweek's calling you.
- And he won't agree to any more tests.
426
00:24:02,713 --> 00:24:03,797
He has his diagnosis.
427
00:24:03,922 --> 00:24:05,132
See what happens
when you don't listen to me?
428
00:24:05,257 --> 00:24:07,051
Maybe millions
of lives get saved.
429
00:24:07,176 --> 00:24:09,136
Yeah. That's my point.
430
00:24:09,636 --> 00:24:11,930
Increased heart rate,
night sweats,
431
00:24:12,056 --> 00:24:15,893
loss of consciousness. Besides rough
sex, what do they all have in common?
432
00:24:16,018 --> 00:24:17,519
- T...
- It's not TB!
433
00:24:17,644 --> 00:24:19,188
His autonomic nervous system?
434
00:24:19,313 --> 00:24:22,608
- We know that it's not a brain tumor.
- What else could be eating his nerves?
435
00:24:22,733 --> 00:24:24,902
Fabry's. Autonomic
dysregulation syndrome.
436
00:24:25,027 --> 00:24:28,697
Shy-Drager syndrome. It doesn't matter.
He won't let us test him.
437
00:24:29,823 --> 00:24:31,533
(PHONE RINGING)
438
00:24:33,827 --> 00:24:37,706
In my opinion, Dr. Sebastian
Charles is an idiot.
439
00:24:37,831 --> 00:24:41,794
Yeah, you can quote me.
C-U-D-D-Y.
440
00:24:44,421 --> 00:24:47,508
Sebastian is refusing
life-saving treatment.
441
00:24:47,633 --> 00:24:51,428
He's refusing TB treatment.
You don't think he has TB.
442
00:24:51,553 --> 00:24:54,556
- Ergo, you should care less.
- He won't let me test him.
443
00:24:54,681 --> 00:24:56,058
And what do you want me to do about it?
444
00:24:56,183 --> 00:24:57,684
Hold him down.
445
00:24:57,810 --> 00:25:00,604
Have you apologized
to Cecelia Carter yet?
446
00:25:01,313 --> 00:25:03,273
Trust me, she doesn't
wanna hear from me.
447
00:25:03,398 --> 00:25:04,775
Look, the guy
is killing himself!
448
00:25:04,900 --> 00:25:07,277
Am I the only one who realizes
this is a bad thing?
449
00:25:07,402 --> 00:25:11,615
If he was a Christian Scientist refusing
meds, we'd have 18 attorneys...
450
00:25:13,951 --> 00:25:15,786
You're putting on makeup.
451
00:25:16,411 --> 00:25:18,664
That's not a good sign
for my side, is it?
452
00:25:18,789 --> 00:25:22,251
Sebastian has called
a press conference for 3:00.
453
00:25:22,376 --> 00:25:25,796
He's asked me to be there to confinn
the diagnosis and the prognosis.
454
00:25:25,921 --> 00:25:28,423
You are as big
a media whore as he is.
455
00:25:28,549 --> 00:25:32,386
Of course I am. It couldn't possibly
be that I think he's right,
456
00:25:32,511 --> 00:25:34,805
and that I'd like to be a small
part of what he's doing.
457
00:25:34,930 --> 00:25:38,892
Oh, whores can like the sex.
Doesn't mean they're not whores.
458
00:25:39,017 --> 00:25:43,313
And with that eye shadow, I
am totally screwed, aren't I?
459
00:25:43,438 --> 00:25:44,523
Totally.
460
00:25:48,694 --> 00:25:51,238
CAMERON: How you feeling?
A little weak.
461
00:25:51,363 --> 00:25:53,115
You're having a good day.
462
00:25:54,366 --> 00:25:57,411
The symptoms will quickly focus
more and more on your lungs.
463
00:25:57,536 --> 00:25:59,580
You'll find it difficult to talk
and eventually breathe at all.
464
00:25:59,705 --> 00:26:01,582
I think I know what I'll have
to look forward to.
465
00:26:01,707 --> 00:26:02,708
I know.
466
00:26:03,292 --> 00:26:06,086
I just came to ask if you'd be
willing to accept any treatment.
467
00:26:06,211 --> 00:26:07,921
No, if you're trying to scare me into...
468
00:26:08,046 --> 00:26:10,883
No. Palliative treatment.
469
00:26:11,592 --> 00:26:12,801
Narcotics.
470
00:26:12,926 --> 00:26:15,929
Fentanyl patch, morphine drip,
whatever it takes.
471
00:26:16,054 --> 00:26:19,057
We can make your last days
fairly comfortable.
472
00:26:20,058 --> 00:26:23,604
And if you have another
good day, maybe dinner.
473
00:26:27,191 --> 00:26:28,525
Thank you.
474
00:26:38,577 --> 00:26:42,873
You want Third World treatment?
You got it.
475
00:26:42,998 --> 00:26:45,876
- Boy, is it hot here in Djani.
- What are you doing?
476
00:26:46,001 --> 00:26:47,211
What am I doing?
477
00:26:47,336 --> 00:26:49,963
Putting everything
on the floor of the hut.
478
00:26:51,006 --> 00:26:53,175
What's the magic box
with the moving pictures?
479
00:26:53,300 --> 00:26:55,427
- You think he's a hypocrite?
- Hypocrite? No.
480
00:26:55,552 --> 00:26:58,639
Everybody in Africa's got cell
phones and running water.
481
00:27:01,725 --> 00:27:04,228
This thing just
will not flush.
482
00:27:04,353 --> 00:27:07,439
Do you really think that if you come
in here and make it a little hot,
483
00:27:07,564 --> 00:27:08,649
make it smell a little,
484
00:27:08,774 --> 00:27:12,569
that I'm just gonna fold and abandon
everything that matters to me?
485
00:27:13,779 --> 00:27:16,323
Lousy sanitation
over there, too.
486
00:27:16,448 --> 00:27:19,284
You are not the same as them.
Your life is not the same.
487
00:27:19,409 --> 00:27:22,120
And you're cheapening everything they're
going through by pretending you are.
488
00:27:22,246 --> 00:27:23,538
I am the same.
I'm not special.
489
00:27:23,664 --> 00:27:27,125
You can't demand to be treated
like any Third World sick person
490
00:27:27,251 --> 00:27:30,420
- and call a press conference!
- They treat me special!
491
00:27:30,545 --> 00:27:32,422
That doesn't mean I am.
492
00:27:33,423 --> 00:27:37,177
And what kind of selfish jerk
wouldn't take advantage of that fact?
493
00:27:52,276 --> 00:27:54,236
It's all preventable.
494
00:27:54,361 --> 00:27:57,572
Stoia Tucker makes medications
right here in New Jersey.
495
00:27:57,698 --> 00:28:01,368
They have warehouses full of the stuff.
There's more than enough to go around.
496
00:28:01,493 --> 00:28:04,579
So if I can get them,
why can't Lemma?
497
00:28:05,414 --> 00:28:08,875
Why can't Quesmo?
And why can't Sarni?
498
00:28:12,129 --> 00:28:16,300
Another person just died.
Where is your outrage?
499
00:28:16,425 --> 00:28:19,177
SEBASTMN: No, I have no
intention of martyring myself.
500
00:28:19,303 --> 00:28:20,304
I'm just putting myself...
501
00:28:20,429 --> 00:28:23,265
Sure, they're dying,
but it's got a great beat.
502
00:28:23,890 --> 00:28:25,684
Must be hot as hell under those lights.
503
00:28:25,809 --> 00:28:28,353
- Yep.
' He)!' why the page?
504
00:28:28,478 --> 00:28:31,440
- He okay?
- He's in a coma.
505
00:28:32,232 --> 00:28:35,360
I need you to
apologize to Ceci, Cecily.
506
00:28:35,485 --> 00:28:39,323
- Mrs. Carter? For what?
- For whatever I did.
507
00:28:39,448 --> 00:28:42,409
- You didn't do anything.
- That has been my position all along.
508
00:28:42,534 --> 00:28:45,537
CUDDY: His chest x-rays are negative,
so he's not contagious at this point.
509
00:28:45,662 --> 00:28:47,289
His condition
is currently stable.
510
00:28:47,414 --> 00:28:51,293
Do you ever notice how all the
self-sacrificing women in history,
511
00:28:51,418 --> 00:28:53,837
Joan of Arc, Mother Teresa,
512
00:28:54,671 --> 00:28:57,382
can't think of any others,
they all die alone.
513
00:28:57,507 --> 00:29:01,595
The men, on the other hand,
get so much fuzz it's crazy.
514
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,305
It's an unfair world.
515
00:29:03,430 --> 00:29:05,766
House, she was scared and unreasonable.
516
00:29:05,891 --> 00:29:08,101
Insulting a woman
with breast cancer,
517
00:29:08,226 --> 00:29:13,023
that's a move best left to the pros.
Frankly, you don't have the chops.
518
00:29:13,148 --> 00:29:17,569
I didn't insult her! I did the
unnecessary biopsy like she wanted.
519
00:29:17,694 --> 00:29:19,571
It was negative
like I knew it would be.
520
00:29:19,696 --> 00:29:21,740
What'd you do,
call them perky?
521
00:29:21,865 --> 00:29:25,327
You are years away
from mad skills like that.
522
00:29:25,452 --> 00:29:27,454
I need you to apologize.
523
00:29:28,372 --> 00:29:31,249
(Buddy's only doing this
because she thinks it's you.
524
00:29:31,375 --> 00:29:33,251
Welcome to the world.
525
00:29:33,377 --> 00:29:35,712
Everyone's different, everyone
gets treated different.
526
00:29:35,837 --> 00:29:38,757
And you try fighting that,
you wind up dying of TB.
527
00:29:40,884 --> 00:29:42,052
What are you doing?
528
00:29:42,177 --> 00:29:44,805
Testing the patient's
autonomic nervous system.
529
00:29:45,931 --> 00:29:46,932
Of course.
530
00:29:47,057 --> 00:29:49,601
His internal heating
and ventilation should be off.
531
00:29:49,726 --> 00:29:51,228
He shouldn't be able to sweat.
532
00:29:51,353 --> 00:29:53,313
That's why he's got
that awful body powder.
533
00:29:53,438 --> 00:29:57,234
Take it away, crank up the heat,
stick him under the lights,
534
00:29:57,359 --> 00:30:00,570
he can't cool himself. He
should be turning bright red.
535
00:30:00,695 --> 00:30:02,280
The picture's fine.
536
00:30:04,908 --> 00:30:05,992
SEBASTIAN: Yeah.
537
00:30:11,123 --> 00:30:12,582
I'm asking Stoia Tucker
538
00:30:12,707 --> 00:30:15,252
to save these lives,
millions of lives,
539
00:30:15,377 --> 00:30:17,546
including my own.
540
00:30:17,671 --> 00:30:20,340
Dr. House, I would appreciate
it if you left us...
541
00:30:20,465 --> 00:30:21,883
Get that out of my face.
542
00:30:22,008 --> 00:30:23,677
CUDDY: What are you
trying to prove, House?
543
00:30:23,802 --> 00:30:26,304
SEBASTIAN: Dr. House, I would appreciate
it if you left the room while...
544
00:30:26,430 --> 00:30:27,806
He's sweating like a pig.
545
00:30:27,931 --> 00:30:30,225
It's 100 degrees in here, House,
because you turned up the therlnostat.
546
00:30:30,350 --> 00:30:33,228
Did they hear me?
The media, did they listen?
547
00:30:33,353 --> 00:30:35,856
- He's disoriented.
- They have to hear me.
548
00:30:35,981 --> 00:30:38,984
- His arteries are clamping down.
- I want everybody out of here now!
549
00:30:39,109 --> 00:30:40,777
Get the crash cart.
He's having a cardiac arrest.
550
00:30:40,902 --> 00:30:42,446
CUDDY: Get it set up.
CAMERON: All right.
551
00:30:42,571 --> 00:30:43,780
Get them out!
552
00:30:44,698 --> 00:30:47,242
Everyone. I want
everyone out of here now!
553
00:30:47,367 --> 00:30:49,119
(BEEPING)
554
00:30:51,455 --> 00:30:52,581
Clear.
555
00:30:57,002 --> 00:30:58,879
Come on, Sebastian.
556
00:30:59,004 --> 00:31:00,088
Clear.
557
00:31:01,173 --> 00:31:02,716
I've got sinus rhythm.
558
00:31:08,138 --> 00:31:09,556
(CAMERAS CLICKING)
559
00:31:13,268 --> 00:31:17,439
That is not TB.
-Compelling television.
560
00:31:20,650 --> 00:31:24,696
- Do whatever tests you want.
- I want to treat you for TB.
561
00:31:25,780 --> 00:31:29,701
Dr. Cameron found low sugar
in your cerebrospinal fluid.
562
00:31:29,826 --> 00:31:34,080
- It's a classic finding of TB.
- Oh, now you think TB's the problem?
563
00:31:34,206 --> 00:31:35,582
No.
564
00:31:35,707 --> 00:31:38,251
If TB caused
cardiac arrest on a hot day,
565
00:31:38,376 --> 00:31:41,254
your work in Africa would be even
more futile than it already is.
566
00:31:41,379 --> 00:31:43,089
Can you get
to your point, please?
567
00:31:43,215 --> 00:31:46,718
That whiteboard in my office, we're
up to about a dozen symptoms now.
568
00:31:46,843 --> 00:31:49,638
Cardiac arrest,
clearly not TB.
569
00:31:49,763 --> 00:31:52,057
CSF sugar clearly is TB.
570
00:31:52,516 --> 00:31:54,309
The rest of them
could go either way.
571
00:31:54,434 --> 00:31:57,687
Unless we know which ones are
which, I can't diagnose you.
572
00:32:01,691 --> 00:32:05,362
I'll take any other tests or treatments
you might want to prescribe.
573
00:32:08,907 --> 00:32:11,451
So you're not special,
but TB is.
574
00:32:11,576 --> 00:32:14,746
People die of TB because we let them.
It's our choice.
575
00:32:14,871 --> 00:32:17,999
People die of malaria because we let them.
They die of dysentery. They...
576
00:32:18,124 --> 00:32:21,836
- No, TB's my disease.
- You own a disease?
577
00:32:22,504 --> 00:32:25,632
Well, I'm sorry I missed
the IPO on dengue fever.
578
00:32:25,757 --> 00:32:29,803
Look, I know I have a way about me, and
I know I piss a lot of people off.
579
00:32:29,928 --> 00:32:32,055
And a whole lot more
I just annoy.
580
00:32:32,180 --> 00:32:34,182
But you're the first person
that I've ever met
581
00:32:34,307 --> 00:32:37,018
who I think is actually
annoyed by what I do.
582
00:32:37,143 --> 00:32:40,897
Do you think I'm not saving any
lives, or is that a bad thing?
583
00:32:41,022 --> 00:32:43,608
Right now, I'm just trying
to save your life.
584
00:32:43,733 --> 00:32:45,944
Or do you just have
a problem with hope?
585
00:32:48,488 --> 00:32:52,492
You know, the difference between
our jobs is not numbers or styles.
586
00:32:52,617 --> 00:32:56,288
It's that I know I'm gonna fail.
Even if I save a million people,
587
00:32:56,413 --> 00:33:00,625
there's gonna be another million.
You couldn't handle that.
588
00:33:01,710 --> 00:33:04,170
I think you resent
anyone who can.
589
00:33:04,296 --> 00:33:07,507
Can't we just agree that
you're incredibly annoying?
590
00:33:07,632 --> 00:33:09,801
Take the pills,
or I'll let you die,
591
00:33:09,926 --> 00:33:12,596
do an autopsy,
call my own press conference
592
00:33:12,721 --> 00:33:15,640
and make sure the world knows
that you didn't die of TB.
593
00:33:15,765 --> 00:33:19,185
Corporate sponsors will be disappointed,
but they'll find another disease.
594
00:33:19,311 --> 00:33:21,062
Why would you do that?
595
00:33:21,187 --> 00:33:23,648
Because I'm just a mean
son of a bitch.
596
00:34:32,926 --> 00:34:38,056
So, we still have to explain PR
variability, syncope, headaches
597
00:34:38,181 --> 00:34:39,557
and
598
00:34:40,850 --> 00:34:41,810
low sugar?
599
00:34:41,935 --> 00:34:44,813
- That was classic TB.
- Apparently not.
600
00:34:44,938 --> 00:34:47,107
- You rerun the test?
- Yeah.
601
00:34:47,941 --> 00:34:50,902
- This is good.
- Good? This is bizarre.
602
00:34:51,027 --> 00:34:52,946
"Bizarre" is good.
603
00:34:53,071 --> 00:34:56,324
"Common" has hundreds of explanations.
"Bizarre" has hardly any.
604
00:34:56,449 --> 00:34:59,411
What else could cause
low CSF sugar?
605
00:34:59,536 --> 00:35:00,954
I get to ask the questions.
606
00:35:01,079 --> 00:35:04,791
I've found you look a lot smarter asking
questions than dumbly not answering them.
607
00:35:04,916 --> 00:35:07,794
- High insulin levels in his blood.
- They'd have to be very high.
608
00:35:07,919 --> 00:35:10,463
Okay, very high
insulin levels in his blood.
609
00:35:10,588 --> 00:35:12,340
How could he get
high insulin levels?
610
00:35:12,465 --> 00:35:15,176
We've checked daily blood
sugars, all norlnal.
611
00:35:15,301 --> 00:35:17,971
See how smart she looks?
'Cause she asked the question.
612
00:35:18,096 --> 00:35:21,099
And it's not glucagonoma
because he has no rash.
613
00:35:21,224 --> 00:35:24,352
It's not self-induced
because he's not an idiot.
614
00:35:24,477 --> 00:35:28,690
And it's not a tumor because the
CT and the MRI were both negative.
615
00:35:28,815 --> 00:35:30,525
Which just leaves tumor.
616
00:35:34,988 --> 00:35:37,699
Why do you do this? Why do you ignore
what I say like I'm not even...
617
00:35:37,824 --> 00:35:40,076
Small tumor.
Really, really tiny.
618
00:35:40,201 --> 00:35:41,745
So small we can't see it.
619
00:35:41,870 --> 00:35:43,538
Nesidioblastoma.
620
00:35:43,663 --> 00:35:46,833
An abnormal growth of the
insulin-secreting cells in his pancreas?
621
00:35:46,958 --> 00:35:48,418
That only intermittently
secrets insulin...
622
00:35:48,543 --> 00:35:49,878
HOUSE: In response to stress,
623
00:35:50,003 --> 00:35:54,799
like if, I don't know, if someone
accidentally puts the mechanical bull on 11.
624
00:35:54,924 --> 00:35:57,218
Easily removed by surgery.
625
00:35:57,343 --> 00:36:00,764
Except if it's so small
we can't see it,
626
00:36:00,889 --> 00:36:02,307
how are we even gonna
prove it's there?
627
00:36:02,432 --> 00:36:03,892
She asked, looking clever.
628
00:36:04,017 --> 00:36:07,896
Just start hacking away at his
pancreas until he gets better?
629
00:36:08,021 --> 00:36:10,190
How do you prove something
exists when you can't see it?
630
00:36:10,315 --> 00:36:13,067
Does God exist?
Does the wind blow?
631
00:36:13,193 --> 00:36:16,237
- We know because the leaves move.
- Look for effects.
632
00:36:16,946 --> 00:36:18,948
You should look
the other way.
633
00:36:19,073 --> 00:36:21,075
- There's Cuddy with your patient.
- CUDDY: Dr. House!
634
00:36:21,201 --> 00:36:23,161
Dr. House has an emergency.
635
00:36:23,953 --> 00:36:27,165
- We can't avoid her forever.
- Eventually she'll die.
636
00:36:27,290 --> 00:36:29,042
You sure she doesn't
have breast cancer?
637
00:36:29,959 --> 00:36:31,795
HOUSE: We think
you have a tumor.
638
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:35,548
Easily removed surgically. We're
gonna poke it with a stick.
639
00:36:35,673 --> 00:36:38,885
- And if there's no tumor?
- Nothing happens.
640
00:36:40,094 --> 00:36:43,014
HOUSE: Splenic artery, it's
a hard left off the celiac.
641
00:36:44,682 --> 00:36:46,059
If there is a tumor?
642
00:36:46,684 --> 00:36:49,229
What usually happens when you
poke something with a stick?
643
00:36:49,354 --> 00:36:50,730
Pokes back.
644
00:36:50,855 --> 00:36:52,941
He's stuck in the
superior mesenteric.
645
00:36:53,900 --> 00:36:56,903
I knew we should have
stopped for directions. Men!
646
00:36:57,904 --> 00:36:58,947
I'm there.
647
00:36:59,906 --> 00:37:02,492
We're gonna inject calcium
into your pancreas.
648
00:37:03,201 --> 00:37:05,161
The beta cells
will release insulin.
649
00:37:05,286 --> 00:37:07,831
If there are too many beta
cells because of a tumor,
650
00:37:07,956 --> 00:37:10,959
your blood sugar
will drop precipitously.
651
00:37:11,084 --> 00:37:13,253
How do we know
it won't go too low?
652
00:37:13,378 --> 00:37:15,839
Fingers and toes crossed.
653
00:37:17,423 --> 00:37:18,758
HOUSE: Go ahead.
654
00:37:32,188 --> 00:37:34,899
Glucose is holding
steady at 75.
655
00:37:35,817 --> 00:37:40,738
- No leaves rustling. Blow harder.
- I already gave him one amp.
656
00:37:40,864 --> 00:37:44,367
Well, I guess now would be the time
to give him more than one amp.
657
00:37:56,337 --> 00:37:59,757
CAMERON: Fifty.
It's starting to drop.
658
00:38:02,802 --> 00:38:06,472
- Forty-five.
- I think my arm's shaking.
659
00:38:06,639 --> 00:38:08,766
I'm gonna start him on a glucose drip.
He's gonna seize.
660
00:38:08,892 --> 00:38:10,018
Not yet.
661
00:38:11,769 --> 00:38:14,981
FOREMAN: It's continuing to drop.
HOUSE: Not fast enough.
662
00:38:22,780 --> 00:38:25,283
- CAMERON: He's seizing.
- We've got to reverse this.
663
00:38:27,076 --> 00:38:31,539
He's at 40, 38, 35.
664
00:38:31,664 --> 00:38:33,291
(ACCELERATED BEEPING)
665
00:38:39,464 --> 00:38:42,800
Push an amp of D50.
You want to kill the guy?
666
00:38:52,268 --> 00:38:54,062
CAMERON: We're back to 40.
667
00:38:55,396 --> 00:38:58,775
Congratulations.
You have a tumor.
668
00:39:03,529 --> 00:39:05,406
Are you gonna go out with him?
669
00:39:06,491 --> 00:39:10,244
- Is that any of your business?
- Nope.
670
00:39:11,829 --> 00:39:12,914
I don't think so.
671
00:39:13,039 --> 00:39:16,209
Two days ago, you were holding his hand.
What's changed?
672
00:39:17,835 --> 00:39:20,713
He practically lives in Africa.
There's no future.
673
00:39:21,506 --> 00:39:24,759
On the other hand, maybe there's
too much of a future now.
674
00:39:24,884 --> 00:39:28,763
You weren't attracted to him because
he was prepared to die for a cause.
675
00:39:28,888 --> 00:39:31,849
You were attracted to him because
he was actually doing it.
676
00:39:31,975 --> 00:39:35,019
- Right. It's that simple.
- That was simple?
677
00:39:35,144 --> 00:39:37,981
I put a label on him and go from there.
678
00:39:38,106 --> 00:39:39,732
Everybody does it.
679
00:39:39,857 --> 00:39:41,943
We are
who people think we are.
680
00:39:42,068 --> 00:39:44,320
People think he's a great
doctor, so they give him stuff.
681
00:39:44,445 --> 00:39:47,323
- He is a great doctor.
- The reality is irrelevant.
682
00:39:52,745 --> 00:39:54,122
I'll prove it.
683
00:39:54,789 --> 00:39:58,751
People who know me see me as
an ass, treat me as an ass.
684
00:39:58,876 --> 00:40:02,463
People who don't know me see a
cripple, treat me like a cripple.
685
00:40:03,881 --> 00:40:07,260
What sort of selfish jerk wouldn't
take advantage of that fact?
686
00:40:14,892 --> 00:40:16,019
(GROANS)
687
00:40:18,062 --> 00:40:21,524
Oh, my goodness. Are you okay?
688
00:40:23,276 --> 00:40:26,738
Yeah.
I am so sorry.
689
00:40:26,863 --> 00:40:28,740
It was completely my fault.
690
00:40:28,865 --> 00:40:30,658
It's nothing. I'm fine.
691
00:40:30,783 --> 00:40:33,619
Well, I'm very relieved.
I feel terrible.
692
00:40:33,745 --> 00:40:37,165
- Please don't worry about it. I'm fine.
- You sure?
693
00:40:37,290 --> 00:40:38,499
Okay-
694
00:40:49,886 --> 00:40:51,763
How's everything?
695
00:40:51,888 --> 00:40:54,515
I'm gonna go.
My foot's killing me.
696
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:58,144
- What did you do to...
- it was nothing. it was all my fault.
697
00:41:01,731 --> 00:41:03,900
Yeah, listen.
Bogale, relax, okay?
698
00:41:04,025 --> 00:41:06,569
I'm gonna be back on Tuesday.
699
00:41:06,694 --> 00:41:09,906
Tell Sarni I'm gonna bring her
a new brace. All right.
700
00:41:10,907 --> 00:41:14,035
- Just in case.
- You get them?
701
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:16,746
Six-months' supply.
Should fix you right up.
702
00:41:16,871 --> 00:41:18,539
I'll see you when you
come back for a refill?
703
00:41:18,664 --> 00:41:20,249
Yeah, I'll see you
in two months.
704
00:41:20,374 --> 00:41:22,502
You gonna give them away?
705
00:41:22,627 --> 00:41:25,922
Well, you know how these things happen.
You leave a bag on the airplane,
706
00:41:26,047 --> 00:41:28,424
you drop some pills
down the drain.
707
00:41:29,383 --> 00:41:33,054
I have an idea. You could bring
me the refill in Africa.
708
00:41:33,888 --> 00:41:35,264
I don't think so.
709
00:41:35,890 --> 00:41:39,310
You actually like working for House?
You find this satisfying?
710
00:42:11,884 --> 00:42:12,844
WOMAN: There he is.
711
00:42:12,969 --> 00:42:14,762
- It's good to see you. Dr. Sebastian.
- Thank you.
712
00:42:14,887 --> 00:42:18,141
Thank you. I appreciate that.
I appreciate the support.
713
00:42:18,266 --> 00:42:20,935
It's not about the kids
dying every eight seconds.
714
00:42:21,060 --> 00:42:25,815
It's about the media stroking,
adulation, the pats on the head.
715
00:42:26,899 --> 00:42:29,110
That's your problem
with him, isn't it?
716
00:42:29,235 --> 00:42:32,029
Look at him.
Loves it, eats it up.
717
00:42:32,155 --> 00:42:35,908
Yeah, the man actually
enjoys what he does.
718
00:42:41,914 --> 00:42:44,208
Listen, I saved his life.
719
00:42:44,333 --> 00:42:47,879
That means I get credit for every
life he saves from here on out.
720
00:42:48,546 --> 00:42:50,548
I'll make sure
Stockholm knows.
