- Yeah.

Yeah, I'm just fighting off
a stomach bug.

00:00:42,314 --> 00:00:43,482
I'll be fine.

7
00:00:44,232 --> 00:00:47,903
- Did he sleep OK?
- Great, as long as I was holding him.

00:04:01,763 --> 00:04:04,683
She's smart.
She knows if she buys me enough alcohol

60

61
00:04:08,228 --> 00:04:11,231

Unless she ran out of batteries.

includes an appearance by little Jimmy.

think that Cuddy asked...

Or, rather, peep.

He wants us to take a look.

Unless Chase broke his neck
falling off his polo pony,

70
00:04:38,592 --> 00:04:40,594
he had no reason to be in the ER.

71
00:04:40,719 --> 00:04:42,804
Cuddy put him on a two-week NICU
rotation.

Patient had an unexplained seizure.

Happy to help.

81
00:05:16,963 --> 00:05:20,091
- How are you coming along?
- Tell her everything's great.

82
00:05:20,216 --> 00:05:21,927
Neither of us wants to deal with
her guilt.

83
00:05:22,052 --> 00:05:23,595
- I don't feel guilty.
- Of course not.

84
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,932
Hell, if people felt guilt every time
they accidentally lobotomized a guy...

85
00:05:27,057 --> 00:05:28,600
I was trying to save his life.

86
00:05:28,725 --> 00:05:31,227
Yeah. Your heart was in the right place.

87
00:05:33,229 --> 00:05:36,566
It's just his brain that's not quite
where it's supposed to be.

88
00:05:39,152 --> 00:05:41,071
- Tell her everything's great.
- It's true.

89
00:05:41,196 --> 00:05:44,741
No more left side/right side reversals.
Still some short-tenn memory loss

90
00:05:44,866 --> 00:05:48,995
and spatial processing problems, but
I'm trying not to be too hard on myself.

91
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,081
Yeah, might pull a muscle.

92
00:05:51,206 --> 00:05:52,248
We have a case?

93
00:05:52,374 --> 00:05:54,167
Seizure that can't be explained
by epilepsy

94
00:05:54,292 --> 00:05:56,127
and accompanied by
elevated calcium levels.

95
00:05:56,252 --> 00:05:59,047
Still bored. Tell her why.

96
00:05:59,172 --> 00:06:03,718
Because seizure with mildly elevated
calcium is diagnostically simple.

97
00:06:03,843 --> 00:06:08,598
It's either hyperparathyroid, cancer,
or calcium-mediated neurotoxicity.

98
00:06:08,723 --> 00:06:09,849
Well done.

99
00:06:10,934 --> 00:06:14,688

to make coffee, hands off the patients.

100
00:06:14,813 --> 00:06:16,523
House.

101
00:06:16,648 --> 00:06:20,610
All those reasons this case bores you,
the ER has already ruled them out.

102
00:06:30,245 --> 00:06:34,124
Lungs are clear. Get an EEG.
Confirm the brain function is OK.

103
00:06:34,249 --> 00:06:36,376
Can we focus on the task at hand?

104
00:06:37,127 --> 00:06:40,714
Why did Mommy twitch so hard that
she tossed the baby in the bath water?

105
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,967
- You don't need me for this.
- Of course I need you. We're a team.

106
00:06:44,092 --> 00:06:47,637
Poiyarteritis nodosa. inflamed arteries
in the brain cause seizures.

107
00:06:47,762 --> 00:06:50,390
Inflamed arteries in the kidneys
cause calcium build-up.

108
00:06:50,515 --> 00:06:54,352
You're a moron. Did you even look at
the file? Kidney function is fine.

109
00:06:54,477 --> 00:06:56,980
- Whipple's?
- What?

110
00:06:57,105 --> 00:07:00,025
- Whipple's.
- Test her.

111
00:07:00,150 --> 00:07:03,987
Cameron thinks it starts with a "W".
I'm thinking "V".

112
00:07:04,112 --> 00:07:07,032
The dad vomited this morning.
Maybe they've both got strep.

113
00:07:07,157 --> 00:07:08,825
You think you can do
a strep-throat culture

114
00:07:08,950 --> 00:07:10,952
without the swab ending up in
the guy's poop chute?

115
00:07:11,077 --> 00:07:13,288
- "V" for "vasoconstriction".
- That'd be my guess.

116
00:07:13,413 --> 00:07:15,749
Excess calcium makes blood vessels
in the brain clamp down.

117
00:07:15,874 --> 00:07:18,668
Best case scenario, seizure.
Worst case, stroke.

118

- What you got there?

00:07:56,247 --> 00:07:58,041
Special panties for your date
with Wilson?

126
00:07:58,166 --> 00:08:00,418
It's not a date.
And it's none of your business.

127
00:08:00,543 --> 00:08:02,462
If it's not a date, it is business.

128
00:08:02,587 --> 00:08:05,173
And if it was business, you wouldn't say
it was none of my business.

129
00:08:05,298 --> 00:08:07,801
- What do you want?
- To talk about your date with Wilson.

130
00:08:07,926 --> 00:08:10,178
- It's not a date.
- This is fun.

131
00:08:10,303 --> 00:08:13,264
Spring Chase from NICU
and I'll shut up about your date.

132
00:08:13,389 --> 00:08:18,061
- NICU is short-staffed.
- Have you lost the ability to lie?

133
00:08:18,186 --> 00:08:21,106
Nobody's quit NICU in two years.

134
00:08:21,231 --> 00:08:26,277
And if you're making up reasons,
that means there is no reason,

135
00:08:26,402 --> 00:08:29,239
which means he asked for the
assignment, didn't he?

136
00:08:29,364 --> 00:08:32,242
If Chase needs a break from you,
he should take it.

137
00:08:37,122 --> 00:08:38,248
Absolutely.

138
00:08:47,132 --> 00:08:50,009

strep.

140
00:08:56,099 --> 00:08:59,727
- Or not. Either way, I'm fine.
- You don't have to say that.

141
00:09:00,311 --> 00:09:03,565
It's OK. I could always work
in a research lab or teach.

142
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,194
- And you'd be OK with that?
- Why wouldn't I be?

of your own, running a department.

00:11:23,579 --> 00:11:26,165
Bubble bath got into the baby's lungs
when he was underwater.

171
00:11:26,291 --> 00:11:30,128
Start him on prednisone.
Keep him on high Fl02.

172
00:11:30,253 --> 00:11:32,338
Let the indulging commence.

173
00:11:32,463 --> 00:11:34,674
Lithium could cause all three of
the mother's symptoms.

174
00:11:34,799 --> 00:11:37,176
- No record she's on lithium.
- And the tox screen was negative.

175
00:11:37,302 --> 00:11:40,054
Lithium doesn't show on
a basic tox screen, Scarecrow.

176
00:11:40,179 --> 00:11:43,224
Myelomatous meningitis could also
cover everything.

177
00:11:43,349 --> 00:11:47,312
Rare complications of a rare blood
cancer. You're not totally hopeless.

178
00:11:47,437 --> 00:11:50,398
Get an S-PEP and an MRI for
myelomatous meningitis.

179
00:11:50,523 --> 00:11:52,150
Search the patient's place for lithium.

180
00:11:52,275 --> 00:11:55,445
The baby's lung problem is bacterial
and not chemical. Start ECMO.

181
00:11:55,570 --> 00:11:59,532
While you're searching for the lithium,
take a water sample and check the pipes.

182
00:11:59,657 --> 00:12:02,201
You want me to write this down for you?

183
00:12:03,786 --> 00:12:07,665
I ask you, is almost dying
any excuse for not being fun?

184
00:12:12,086 --> 00:12:14,047
I'm not putting that baby on ECMO.

185
00:12:14,172 --> 00:12:16,299
The chance of there being bacteria
in bathwater...

186
00:12:16,424 --> 00:12:18,843
Why don't you want to work for me?

187
00:12:18,968 --> 00:12:21,137
I'm nice, I'm fun at parties.

188
00:12:22,096 --> 00:12:24,515
I'm not working NICU because of you.

189
00:12:25,725 --> 00:12:28,936
The baby's x-ray suggested
chemical pneumonitis.

190
00:12:29,062 --> 00:12:32,815
Not to me.
The x-ray was too consolidated.

191
00:12:32,940 --> 00:12:36,110
So, why are you down here?
Hoping to expand your make-out pool

192
00:12:36,235 --> 00:12:39,113
to include the preemie
to nine-year-old demographic?

193
00:12:43,326 --> 00:12:44,786
I needed a break.

194
00:12:46,621 --> 00:12:48,122
From the patients.

195
00:12:48,706 --> 00:12:51,376
They lie to us all the time.

196
00:12:51,501 --> 00:12:54,545
Foreman almost died trying to save
a drug-dealing cop.

197
00:12:55,963 --> 00:12:58,633
I just wanted to get away from that
for a while.

198
00:13:01,260 --> 00:13:03,554
What a complete load of crap.

199
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:08,393
What am I? A nurse you're trying to prep
with this vulnerability thing?

200
00:13:08,518 --> 00:13:10,019
ECMO could kill him.

201
00:13:10,144 --> 00:13:13,398
You don't start him on ECMO and that
infection could rampage through his body

202
00:13:13,523 --> 00:13:15,983
like Pistons fans after a championship.

203
00:13:16,776 --> 00:13:20,488
But you do it your way.
Nothing more honest than a dead baby.

204
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,745
ECMO stands for
extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

205
00:13:27,870 --> 00:13:31,374
- We remove your son's blood...
- OK, all of his blood?

206
00:13:31,499 --> 00:13:35,878
We run it through a machine which takes
out carbon dioxide and adds oxygen.

207
00:13:36,003 --> 00:13:39,465
Then we re-warm the blood
and run it back into his body.

208
00:13:39,590 --> 00:13:44,303
There is a significant risk of internal
hemorrhaging, and he may also suffer...

209
00:13:44,429 --> 00:13:47,140
You put him on antibiotics.
Won't that take care of the infection?

210
00:13:47,265 --> 00:13:48,724
Not fast enough.

211
00:13:50,935 --> 00:13:53,146
Are you sure this is Mikey's best shot?

212
00:13:55,064 --> 00:13:56,315
Absolutely.

213
00:14:22,758 --> 00:14:24,635
- Cuddy's trash?
- Not any more.

214
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,846
I paid good money for it.

215
00:14:26,971 --> 00:14:28,598
Look at what she bought.

216
00:14:29,974 --> 00:14:33,769
- Red clover.
- What is red clover used for?

217
00:14:33,895 --> 00:14:39,108
Also used to treat asthma,
psoriasis, joint pain...

218
00:14:39,233 --> 00:14:42,153
She doesn't wheeze, flake, or ache.

219
00:14:42,278 --> 00:14:46,115
And she didn't ask a pulmonologist
or a dermatologist for dinner.

220
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,992
She invited an oncologist.

221
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,163
It's not a date. It's a consult.

222
00:14:54,499 --> 00:14:56,959
Mom's MRI was negative for
masses, abscesses.

223
00:14:57,084 --> 00:14:59,253
- There's no sign she has myelomatous...
- Fascinating.

224
00:14:59,378 --> 00:15:02,089
- Call me when we have...
- She has a subarachnoid bleed.

225
00:15:03,257 --> 00:15:05,843
So, why is our patient
bleeding into her brain?

226
00:15:05,968 --> 00:15:08,221
Her blood work-up shows
her pro-time's elevated.

227
00:15:08,346 --> 00:15:12,058
She's bleeding because she's not
clotting. So, why is she not clotting?

228
00:15:12,183 --> 00:15:13,434
What did you bring us, Daddy?

229
00:15:13,559 --> 00:15:17,480
The only mood-altering drug was vodka
at the back of a drawer.

230
00:15:17,605 --> 00:15:19,774
Hiding booze is
a classic alcoholic behavior.

231
00:15:19,899 --> 00:15:21,901
- That'd explain the bleeding.
- What bleeding?

232
00:15:22,026 --> 00:15:25,696
You don't remember? She bled
all over you this morning. Kidding.

233
00:15:25,821 --> 00:15:29,033
Idiots are fun.
No wonder every village wants one.

234
00:15:29,158 --> 00:15:32,578
If she's an alcoholic, she would
also be more prone to hypercalcemia.

235
00:15:32,703 --> 00:15:34,789
But the tox screen was
negative for alcohol.

236
00:15:34,914 --> 00:15:36,332
Hey, it was your idea.

237
00:15:36,457 --> 00:15:39,544
Now, it's even better.
Mommy quits. She gets the DTs.

238
00:15:39,669 --> 00:15:42,672
- Even explains the seizure.
- It also fits conversion disorder.

239
00:15:42,797 --> 00:15:46,092
They're deep in debt, he's working
around the clock, they got a new baby.

240
00:15:46,217 --> 00:15:48,928
I think the seizure was a physical
response to psychological stress.

241
00:15:49,053 --> 00:15:50,972
Boozy Mommy covers more symptoms.

242
00:15:51,097 --> 00:15:54,600
Put her in a nice phenobarbital coma
before the DTs kill her.

243
00:15:57,270 --> 00:15:59,855
- Where are you going?
- To put her in a pheno coma.

244
00:15:59,981 --> 00:16:01,899
What if I'm wrong?
What if Daddy's the drunk?

245
00:16:02,024 --> 00:16:03,693
Do you want us to give her
the pheno or not?

246
00:16:03,818 --> 00:16:05,194
I want him to argue his point.

247
00:16:05,319 --> 00:16:07,446
I assume you considered the father
and ruled him out.

248
00:16:07,572 --> 00:16:10,241
What's that saying? When you assume,
you become a pain in the ass to me.

249
00:16:10,366 --> 00:16:12,410
Why should I argue?
You'd just overrule me.

250
00:16:12,535 --> 00:16:16,163
Enough! Get a pony or a watermelon
farm.

251
00:16:16,289 --> 00:16:18,040
- House?
- I need him to react.

252
00:16:18,165 --> 00:16:19,917
I need him to act like a human being.

253
00:16:20,042 --> 00:16:23,087
I need him to get over
this boring near-death rebirth.

254
00:16:23,212 --> 00:16:26,757
I have changed.
That's not something you get over.

255
00:16:26,882 --> 00:16:30,678
Nearly dying changes everything forever.
For about two months.

256
00:16:30,803 --> 00:16:33,931
Two months is too long.
I need the guy I hired back. Now.

257
00:16:34,056 --> 00:16:37,560
No matter how much your misery
loves company, it's not getting mine.

258
00:16:37,685 --> 00:16:39,520
I'll talk to the dad.
Cameron can take the mom.

259
00:16:39,645 --> 00:16:42,064
- We'll figure out if Mom is a drinker.
- Waste of time.

260
00:16:42,189 --> 00:16:44,817
Put her in a coma
before the DTs kill her.

261
00:17:02,752 --> 00:17:03,878
So...

262
00:17:05,671 --> 00:17:07,423
...is this a separation, or...

263
00:17:09,050 --> 00:17:12,178
Well, lawyers have been hired,
friends divvied up.

264
00:17:13,179 --> 00:17:14,847
Oddly, she didn't fight me for House.

265
00:17:14,972 --> 00:17:16,057
(CHUCKLES)

266
00:17:16,182 --> 00:17:20,227
At least there aren't kids involved.
You just have each other to deal with.

267
00:17:21,979 --> 00:17:25,232
If there had been kids,
maybe we would have done more of that.

268
00:17:30,029 --> 00:17:31,489
Do you want kids?

269
00:17:34,825 --> 00:17:38,954
Listen, is there anything in particular
you wanted to...

270
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,957
- Hospital business or...
- Catching up.

271
00:17:42,083 --> 00:17:43,250
(CHUCKLES)

272
00:17:43,376 --> 00:17:48,130
I mean, you know, it's not like either
one of us has anybody to run home to.

273
00:17:50,257 --> 00:17:51,092
No.

274
00:18:02,603 --> 00:18:04,230
How are you feeling?

275
00:18:05,815 --> 00:18:09,026
OK. A little groggy.

276
00:18:09,151 --> 00:18:11,028
There's somebody here to see you.

277
00:18:14,031 --> 00:18:17,076
BRENT: Hey, Mikey. Mommy's awake.

278
00:18:21,038 --> 00:18:25,835
Oh, Mikey. Gosh, I was so scared.

279
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,003
(WHIMPERING)

280
00:18:28,129 --> 00:18:29,755
Oh, I love you.

281
00:18:31,424 --> 00:18:34,343
I love you so much. Oh.

282
00:18:34,468 --> 00:18:35,636
(SHUSHING)

283
00:18:37,513 --> 00:18:38,723
I'm sorry.

284
00:18:39,974 --> 00:18:43,769
You don't have anything to be
sorry about. You were sick.

285
00:18:54,905 --> 00:18:57,450
Turns out she and her husband met
in AA.

286
00:18:57,575 --> 00:19:00,035
Obviously, she slipped. Good call.

287
00:19:00,161 --> 00:19:04,415
It wasn't hard, considering my other
choice was your stupid psych theory.

288
00:19:06,083 --> 00:19:07,752
Which was not stupid.

289
00:19:09,086 --> 00:19:12,423
I'm telling you, I'm gonna drop
the N-bomb if I have to.

290
00:19:12,548 --> 00:19:15,926
- You're addicted to conflict.
- Did they change the name?

291
00:19:16,051 --> 00:19:18,888
You could have handled this patient
without dragging Chase in.

292
00:19:19,013 --> 00:19:21,015
But the fact that he didn't want in
killed you.

293
00:19:21,140 --> 00:19:23,934
Just like the fact you can't get
a rise out of me.

294
00:19:28,689 --> 00:19:30,149
Where's the baby?

295
00:19:36,238 --> 00:19:37,656
(GRUNTING)

296
00:19:38,741 --> 00:19:42,536
Get off me! No! I have to do this!

297
00:19:42,661 --> 00:19:45,039
No breath sounds.
Crash cart and epi! Stat!

298
00:19:47,708 --> 00:19:50,127
I told you your psych theory
wasn't stupid.

299
00:19:53,047 --> 00:19:54,965
Your son is stable.

300
00:19:55,090 --> 00:19:57,176
But the lack of oxygen
damaged his kidneys.

301
00:19:57,301 --> 00:20:00,095
She must have rolled over on him
by mistake.

302
00:20:00,221 --> 00:20:04,141
Mr Mason, I was there.

303
00:20:04,266 --> 00:20:06,519
Your wife tried to smother your son.

304
00:20:09,605 --> 00:20:12,650
That's impossible.
Kara would never hurt Mikey.

305
00:20:17,071 --> 00:20:20,574
He knows. They said Mikey knows.

306
00:20:21,951 --> 00:20:22,952
You hear voices?

307
00:20:23,077 --> 00:20:26,580
They wouldn't quit saying that
Mikey would be better off if...

308
00:20:29,917 --> 00:20:31,126
They were right.

309
00:20:35,172 --> 00:20:37,633
We've been trying to diagnose
a seizure that didn't exist.

310
00:20:37,758 --> 00:20:40,636
She faked it when her husband caught
her. I don't think she faked it.

311
00:20:40,761 --> 00:20:43,848
She just happened to seize right in
the middle of drowning her child?

312
00:20:43,973 --> 00:20:46,684
- Lucky break for the kid.
- Hey, take it easy on Foreman.

313
00:20:46,809 --> 00:20:48,727
He's playing with one lobe
tied behind his back.

314
00:20:48,853 --> 00:20:51,021
Postpartum psychosis
makes her want to drown her kid.

315
00:20:51,146 --> 00:20:52,982
The internal conflict
triggers a seizure.

316
00:20:53,107 --> 00:20:55,985
You know what else might be a trigger?
A physical illness.

317
00:20:56,110 --> 00:20:57,069
It's a wild idea, I know.

318
00:20:57,194 --> 00:20:59,905
Especially since she doesn't have
any obviously physical symptoms,

319
00:21:00,030 --> 00:21:02,449
like internal bleeding
or excess calcium.

320
00:21:02,575 --> 00:21:06,704
- I'll draw some blood.
- Oh! Jeez! You've done it again!

321
00:21:06,829 --> 00:21:09,373
- Will you argue with me?
- Drinkers don't eat right.

322
00:21:09,498 --> 00:21:11,375
That explains the bleeding
and the calcium.

323
00:21:11,500 --> 00:21:12,918
This might just be some crazy drunk,

324
00:21:13,043 --> 00:21:15,921
and I'm telling you she's about
to die of myelomatous meningitis.

325
00:21:16,046 --> 00:21:18,507
- We already tested for...
- Exactly. It's an insane idea.

326
00:21:18,632 --> 00:21:22,094
- What do you want me to do?
- Have an original thought.

327
00:21:22,219 --> 00:21:24,471
In the meantime, stress her into
having another seizure.

328
00:21:24,597 --> 00:21:26,098
We can't. She's on haloperidol.

329
00:21:26,223 --> 00:21:29,435
You also can't because it's dangerous
and highly unethical.

330
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,979
Therefore, if you get caught,
pretend you can't make coffee.

331
00:21:32,104 --> 00:21:34,231
Mental defectives get tons of slack.

332
00:21:36,775 --> 00:21:39,111
Take her off the haloperidol,
hook her up to an EEG,

333
00:21:39,236 --> 00:21:41,697
flash some lights, make her pant,
shoot her up with a placebo.

334
00:21:41,822 --> 00:21:44,575
When she starts twitching, if
the machine twitches along, it's real.

335
00:21:44,700 --> 00:21:47,870
If not, well, call the cops,
cos she's a psycho killer.

336
00:21:54,335 --> 00:21:56,003
- Stop pushing him.
- Stop protecting him.

337
00:21:56,128 --> 00:21:58,589
- He needs it.
- Not if he wants to get better.

338
00:21:58,714 --> 00:22:02,009
- He might not be able to get better.
- Well, I need a new neurologist.

339
00:22:02,134 --> 00:22:03,260
He got sick doing his job.

340
00:22:03,385 --> 00:22:06,555
If he got killed doing his job,
I wouldn't keep him on the payroll.

341
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,476
I don't care how guilty you feel or how
touched you are by his reborn spirit.

342
00:22:10,601 --> 00:22:12,519
- I am not touched.
- Then you're guilt-ridden.

343
00:22:12,645 --> 00:22:14,605
- I'm not guilt-ridden.
- Then you're pathetic.

344
00:22:14,730 --> 00:22:15,773
Right now, I'm annoyed.

345
00:22:15,898 --> 00:22:18,609
Keeping him up in the seizure lab
is not the way to advance his recovery.

346
00:22:18,734 --> 00:22:20,194
- It's too much.
- You're right.

347
00:22:20,319 --> 00:22:23,364
You should stick around.
Make sure he doesn't screw up.

348
00:22:32,247 --> 00:22:34,458
<i>FOREMAN:
Kara, look directly into the light.</i>

349
00:22:36,251 --> 00:22:37,544
Keep looking.

350
00:22:39,672 --> 00:22:41,048
Thought you'd be gone for the day.

351
00:22:41,173 --> 00:22:44,426
Thought I'd wait for
the bone marrow biopsy results.

352
00:22:44,551 --> 00:22:46,595
House sent you to baby-sit me,
didn't he?

353
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,263
He asked me to wait for the results.

354
00:22:48,389 --> 00:22:50,641
- Cameron, it's fine.
- Of course it is.

355
00:22:52,810 --> 00:22:56,563
Look, a few weeks ago, you were upset
that I didn't consider you a friend.

356
00:22:56,689 --> 00:22:58,899
Now you're upset that I'm happy?

357
00:22:59,024 --> 00:23:01,944
What can I say? Apparently, I'm a bitch.

358
00:23:02,069 --> 00:23:03,320
(LAUGHS) I didn't say that.

359
00:23:03,445 --> 00:23:04,488
It's annoying.

360
00:23:04,613 --> 00:23:06,490
Insisting every day of your life
is a blessing

361
00:23:06,615 --> 00:23:08,492
is basically calling
everyone else shallow.

362
00:23:08,617 --> 00:23:11,036
- It gets old.
- Sorry.

363
00:23:11,161 --> 00:23:12,496
Oh, give it a rest.

364
00:23:17,876 --> 00:23:19,003
How was dinner?

365
00:23:20,212 --> 00:23:22,089
Cuddy did not mention cancer.

366
00:23:23,007 --> 00:23:26,010
- She lost her nerve.
- It was a date.

367
00:23:28,137 --> 00:23:30,597
- What are you doing?
- PCR test.

368
00:23:32,182 --> 00:23:35,144
You're doing it yourself in
the middle of the night.

369
00:23:36,937 --> 00:23:38,105
On a spoon.

370
00:23:39,857 --> 00:23:41,150
Cuddy's spoon.

371
00:23:41,275 --> 00:23:43,402
I'm checking her saliva
for cancer markers.

372
00:23:45,487 --> 00:23:49,116
Yeah. I do that after all my dates, too.

373
00:23:51,118 --> 00:23:53,162
People think you're the nice one.

374
00:23:53,287 --> 00:23:55,497
Why are you so worried about Cuddy?

375
00:23:55,622 --> 00:23:59,668
You go first.
You desperately want this to be a date.

376
00:23:59,793 --> 00:24:02,379
Because the alternative is cancer.

377
00:24:02,504 --> 00:24:04,131
Just admit that you like her.

378
00:24:04,256 --> 00:24:07,926
She's smart, funny, got a zesty bod.

379
00:24:08,052 --> 00:24:10,929
I think it's great you can look
beyond the fact she's the devil.

380
00:24:11,055 --> 00:24:13,265
I stole a spoon. You stole her garbage.

381
00:24:13,390 --> 00:24:15,100
She's my boss.

382
00:24:15,225 --> 00:24:19,730
If she gets sick, the hospital might
replace her, especially if she dies.

383
00:24:19,855 --> 00:24:22,524
I'd have to learn how to
manipulate someone new.

384
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,027
Whoa.

385
00:24:25,152 --> 00:24:26,987
I think I'm gonna cry.

386
00:24:27,112 --> 00:24:28,989
Find me when the results come in.

387
00:24:37,498 --> 00:24:41,376
Mr Mason, because of the damage
done to your son's kidneys,

388
00:24:41,502 --> 00:24:44,046
his potassium is climbing.

389
00:24:44,171 --> 00:24:46,298
That's causing irregular heartbeats.

390
00:24:46,423 --> 00:24:49,843
I'm doubling the meds
and starting him on dialysis.

391
00:24:49,968 --> 00:24:56,266
But unless we get his potassium down,
he's gonna have a heart attack.

392
00:25:00,479 --> 00:25:01,897
Kara, just another few minutes.

393
00:25:02,022 --> 00:25:05,984
Biopsy's back. She's negative for
myelomatous meningitis.

394
00:25:06,110 --> 00:25:07,861
And she's not seizing.

395
00:25:08,821 --> 00:25:12,241
- So, we're wrong and House is wrong.
- And you're OK with that?

396
00:25:12,699 --> 00:25:13,784
(BEEPING)

397
00:25:13,909 --> 00:25:14,993
She's seizing.

398
00:25:19,206 --> 00:25:21,083
She's not doing anything.

399
00:25:21,208 --> 00:25:24,169
Her brain activity isn't accelerating,
it's slowing down.

400
00:25:24,628 --> 00:25:26,046
(SUCKING)

401
00:25:28,799 --> 00:25:31,885
Muscle rigidity, involuntary grasping
and sucking motions.

402
00:25:32,010 --> 00:25:34,179
She's in an encephalopathic delirium.

403
00:25:34,304 --> 00:25:36,056
Hmm.

404
00:25:36,181 --> 00:25:39,852
A genuine physiological illness.
That rules out a few things.

405
00:25:39,977 --> 00:25:41,019
Like what, I wonder?

406
00:25:41,145 --> 00:25:43,939
Postpartum psychosis
and conversion disorder.

407
00:25:44,064 --> 00:25:46,984
The thing about being a good loser,
you're still a loser.

408
00:25:47,109 --> 00:25:48,235
Ouch.

409
00:25:49,027 --> 00:25:50,904
The delirium means her brain is
shutting down,

410
00:25:51,029 --> 00:25:53,031
reverting to
its most instinctual functions.

411
00:25:53,157 --> 00:25:55,868
And since it's progressing,
I think we can assume it's progressive,

412
00:25:55,993 --> 00:25:59,705
which means it won't be long before
the brain closes shop altogether.

413
00:25:59,830 --> 00:26:01,498
Ideas?

414
00:26:01,623 --> 00:26:04,376
(ALARM BEEPING)

415
00:26:04,501 --> 00:26:07,921
- He's in V-fib.
- His potassium's still too high.

416
00:26:10,090 --> 00:26:12,009
No pulse. Get him off the machine.

417
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,016
Charge to 10. Clear.

418
00:26:19,141 --> 00:26:20,809
(BEEPING)

419
00:26:20,934 --> 00:26:22,144
Still in V-fib.

420
00:26:23,562 --> 00:26:25,189
Another amp of epi.

421
00:26:29,109 --> 00:26:32,362
Chase shouldn't be
wasting his time in NICU.

422
00:26:32,487 --> 00:26:33,864
Could be Wernicke's.

423
00:26:33,989 --> 00:26:36,116
No. Treatment for
Wernicke's is thiamine.

424
00:26:36,241 --> 00:26:38,660
We gave her that
together with the pheno.

425
00:26:38,785 --> 00:26:41,163
Delirium points to lithium.
I know we didn't' find any, but...

426
00:26:41,288 --> 00:26:43,582
She'd have to be smuggling it in
to be getting sicker.

427
00:26:43,707 --> 00:26:46,210
Whipple's causes
encephalopathic delirium.

428
00:26:46,335 --> 00:26:47,628
The test was negative.

429
00:26:47,753 --> 00:26:50,881
- The test could have been wrong.
- Ideas are not soda cans.

430
00:26:51,006 --> 00:26:55,010
Recycling sucks.
Give me something new and shiny.

431
00:26:55,135 --> 00:26:59,973
Or go retro. Take an old idea,
shine it up, and add a new symptom.

432
00:27:01,391 --> 00:27:03,060
Encephalopathic delirium.

433
00:27:04,436 --> 00:27:05,938
Pellagra.

434
00:27:06,063 --> 00:27:09,149
She drinks. Alcoholics get pellagra.

435
00:27:09,274 --> 00:27:11,735
They eat lousy diets, so no niacin.

436
00:27:11,860 --> 00:27:14,988
- He agrees with me. What a shock.
- Well, you're right.

437
00:27:15,113 --> 00:27:17,824
Lack of niacin starves the brain.
Neurons shut down.

438
00:27:17,950 --> 00:27:20,827
Causes seizures, encephalopathic
delirium and psychosis.

439
00:27:20,953 --> 00:27:22,955
We give Kara niacin,
she'll come out of her delirium

440
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:24,623
and she'll be totally sane.

441
00:27:24,748 --> 00:27:27,167
Don't think she's ever
gonna be sane again.

442
00:27:29,503 --> 00:27:31,004
Her son just died.

443
00:28:01,201 --> 00:28:02,619
How do you feel?

444
00:28:03,161 --> 00:28:04,997
Er...

445
00:28:05,122 --> 00:28:06,748
(GASPING)

446
00:28:06,873 --> 00:28:10,168
My stomach kinda hurts.

447
00:28:10,294 --> 00:28:13,422
I need to ask you some questions,
see how you're doing.

448
00:28:13,547 --> 00:28:16,216
Mmm-hmm.

449
00:28:16,341 --> 00:28:17,926
Tell me your name.

450
00:28:18,051 --> 00:28:22,389
Kara Mason. ls my son here?

451
00:28:22,514 --> 00:28:24,474
When were you born?

452
00:28:24,599 --> 00:28:27,602
Please. Where's Michael? Is he OK?

453
00:28:27,728 --> 00:28:29,896
Do you hear any other voices
besides mine?

454
00:28:30,022 --> 00:28:32,482
No. Answer me.

455
00:28:32,607 --> 00:28:34,985
You've been suffering from delusions.

456
00:28:35,110 --> 00:28:38,113
They were caused by a vitamin
deficiency, pellagra.

457
00:28:38,238 --> 00:28:40,991
It made you believe things
that were not real.

458
00:28:43,243 --> 00:28:44,703
Like the voices.

459
00:28:48,498 --> 00:28:50,542
Lull

460
00:28:55,756 --> 00:28:59,343
...remember doing things to Mikey.

461
00:28:59,468 --> 00:29:00,927
Were those real?

462
00:29:04,014 --> 00:29:05,349
I'm afraid so.

463
00:29:10,270 --> 00:29:12,147
So, I...

464
00:29:15,192 --> 00:29:17,944
- You tried to suffocate your son.
- But...

465
00:29:20,030 --> 00:29:24,993
You... You stopped me.

466
00:29:25,118 --> 00:29:26,495
And...

467
00:29:26,620 --> 00:29:31,208
...that other doctor,
he got Mikey breathing.

468
00:29:31,333 --> 00:29:34,002
Your son's organs were damaged
too severely.

469
00:29:37,547 --> 00:29:39,341
He passed away this morning.

470
00:29:42,094 --> 00:29:46,765
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, nol

471
00:29:46,890 --> 00:29:48,225
No!

472
00:29:50,310 --> 00:29:54,981
Oh, my God! No! Oh, my God!

473
00:30:00,153 --> 00:30:02,531
FOREMAN: Pellagra doesn't cause
bloody vomit.

474
00:30:02,656 --> 00:30:04,699
She's still sick and getting worse.

475
00:30:04,825 --> 00:30:09,830
So what causes pellagra
and crimson spew?

476
00:30:10,914 --> 00:30:13,458
Dead baby, while sad, not our problem.

477
00:30:13,583 --> 00:30:15,585
I should have given him
more polystyrene.

478
00:30:15,710 --> 00:30:18,797
You killed him. If you don't get
over it, you're gonna kill Mama, too.

479
00:30:18,922 --> 00:30:21,967
Her alcoholism caused the pellagra.
Maybe it also explains the vomiting.

480
00:30:22,092 --> 00:30:24,136
- Gastritis.
- Gastritis meds aren't helping,

481
00:30:24,261 --> 00:30:26,555
which may confirm her story.
She only slipped once.

482
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,974
You remove drinking from the equation,

483
00:30:29,099 --> 00:30:32,144
internal bleeding, hypercalcemia,
seizure, and pellagra are all back in.

484
00:30:32,269 --> 00:30:34,354
Chase, will you get your head
out of the dead baby's butt

485
00:30:34,479 --> 00:30:36,940
and focus on the barely alive?

486
00:30:40,068 --> 00:30:41,736
How much polystyrene
did you give the kid?

487
00:30:41,862 --> 00:30:43,530
One gram.

488
00:30:43,655 --> 00:30:45,657
His potassium just kept rising.

489
00:31:03,467 --> 00:31:04,926
I need your son.

490
00:31:07,804 --> 00:31:09,014
Who are you?

491
00:31:09,806 --> 00:31:13,602
Your wife's doctor. Your son may
have had the same condition she does.

492
00:31:13,727 --> 00:31:17,939
My son didn't have a condition.
She killed him.

493
00:31:18,064 --> 00:31:21,985
If I biopsy her intestine,
she'll bleed out.

494
00:31:22,110 --> 00:31:24,362
He obviously won't.

495
00:31:24,488 --> 00:31:28,033
You're not using my son's body
to help her.

496
00:31:29,367 --> 00:31:33,163
OK. How about trading him for a beer?

497
00:31:33,288 --> 00:31:35,665
Or maybe you're more of a whiskey guy.

498
00:31:37,542 --> 00:31:40,212
You didn't have strep or a stomach bug
the morning you came in.

499
00:31:40,337 --> 00:31:43,298
You puked because you were hung over.

500
00:31:43,423 --> 00:31:47,052
Accuse a recovered drunk of slipping
and most of the time, you'll be right.

501
00:31:47,177 --> 00:31:48,345
So I drink.

502
00:31:49,387 --> 00:31:51,848
You're acting like this is my fault.

503
00:31:51,973 --> 00:31:53,558
People are gonna feel sorry for you

504
00:31:53,683 --> 00:31:56,228
and they'll tell you that
you can't anticipate the unthinkable.

505
00:31:56,353 --> 00:31:57,979
The fact is, you can.

506
00:31:58,104 --> 00:31:59,773
It's just not all that pleasant.

507
00:31:59,898 --> 00:32:01,399
Look, you don't know anything about...

508
00:32:01,525 --> 00:32:03,652
I know that people don't get crazy
enough to kill someone

509
00:32:03,777 --> 00:32:06,613
without first being crazy enough
for someone to notice.

510
00:32:06,738 --> 00:32:10,700
How many times did you go out
for a drink because she was crying?

511
00:32:10,825 --> 00:32:12,244
How many times did you stay at work

512
00:32:12,369 --> 00:32:15,705
because you couldn't listen to her
telling you what a bad mother she is?

513
00:32:15,830 --> 00:32:19,000
You were relieved when she shut down

514
00:32:19,125 --> 00:32:21,836
and just sat staring
for hours at a time.

515
00:32:22,921 --> 00:32:27,175
She held the pillow over his head.
You slept while she went nuts.

516
00:32:27,300 --> 00:32:30,470
- Not exactly a draw, but...
- What is wrong with you?

517
00:32:30,595 --> 00:32:33,014
What kind of a person
says those things now?

518
00:32:34,808 --> 00:32:36,142
Let me do the test.

519
00:32:36,935 --> 00:32:39,896
It'll be one less thing
for you to feel crappy about.

520
00:32:49,990 --> 00:32:52,576
I got a dead baby for you to biopsy.

521
00:32:52,701 --> 00:32:56,413
- Let Cameron do it.
- Love working NICU?

522
00:32:56,538 --> 00:32:58,290
- I could get you transferred.
- I told you.

523
00:32:58,415 --> 00:33:00,250
I just wanted to trust patients.

524
00:33:00,375 --> 00:33:02,794
You don't give a crap about patients.

525
00:33:06,756 --> 00:33:07,841
Your paycheck.

526
00:33:10,302 --> 00:33:12,470
You've been double-dipping.

527
00:33:12,596 --> 00:33:16,391
Taking your vacation time here,
while drawing a salary in NICU.

528
00:33:16,516 --> 00:33:20,061
Strange. Rich boy doing all that
for some extra cash.

529
00:33:22,689 --> 00:33:27,277
- I'm not rich.
- But your dad was. Now he's dead.

530
00:33:27,402 --> 00:33:30,280
If you're not rich,
that means that Daddy cut you out.

531
00:33:31,698 --> 00:33:32,991
I'm not rich.

532
00:33:34,576 --> 00:33:36,202
Don't let it change you.

533
00:33:39,039 --> 00:33:40,248
And do the test.

534
00:33:58,725 --> 00:34:02,687
God of compassion,
take Michael into your arms

535
00:34:02,812 --> 00:34:04,898
and welcome him into paradise.

536
00:34:06,066 --> 00:34:09,986
Let there be no sorrow, no weeping,
and no pain.

537
00:34:11,696 --> 00:34:13,448
Peace and joy forevermore.

538
00:34:18,828 --> 00:34:19,954
I'm sorry.

539
00:34:43,895 --> 00:34:46,981
It was a date. Cuddy's negative
for all cancer markers.

540
00:34:47,899 --> 00:34:49,234
It was a date.

541
00:34:54,114 --> 00:34:56,908
The baby's intestine shows
slight villous atrophy.

542
00:35:01,996 --> 00:35:04,916
Why would a baby have flattened villi?

543
00:35:05,041 --> 00:35:07,627
He was being treated with polystyrene.

544
00:35:07,752 --> 00:35:10,004
- Polystyrene shouldn't...
- It didn't.

545
00:35:10,130 --> 00:35:12,757
The question is, what do they use
in the NICU to bind it together?

546
00:35:12,882 --> 00:35:15,135
- Wheat gluten.
- It's great stuff.

547
00:35:15,260 --> 00:35:17,929
Unless your body can't tolerate it.

548
00:35:18,054 --> 00:35:20,724
The baby didn't have colic?
He had celiac disease?

549
00:35:20,849 --> 00:35:22,809
Just like Mom.

550
00:35:22,934 --> 00:35:26,020
Celiac can be triggered by
all kinds of stress.

551
00:35:26,146 --> 00:35:28,857
Bills, childbirth, drunk husband...

552
00:35:28,982 --> 00:35:31,609
Every time she had a bowl of pasta or
a slice of bread

553
00:35:31,735 --> 00:35:36,322
or a slosh of soy sauce,
her small intestine became more damaged,

554
00:35:36,448 --> 00:35:39,659
<i>less able to absorb the vitamins
and minerals into her bloodstream.</i>

555
00:35:39,784 --> 00:35:42,746
<i>Her body couldn't absorb enough niacin,
caused the pellagra.</i>

556
00:35:42,871 --> 00:35:44,956
<i>Couldn't absorb vitamin K,
caused the bleeding.</i>

557
00:35:45,081 --> 00:35:48,126
And celiac is why the baby's meds
didn't work.

558
00:35:50,211 --> 00:35:52,422
His body just couldn't absorb them.

559
00:35:53,923 --> 00:35:56,676
Switch Mom to IV nutrition.
It's gluten-free.

560
00:35:56,801 --> 00:35:58,511
That'll spruce her villi right up.

561
00:35:58,636 --> 00:36:00,847
No. Celiac causes
nutritional deprivation.

562
00:36:00,972 --> 00:36:03,057
Our patient has excess calcium.

563
00:36:03,183 --> 00:36:06,895
Tell them what causes excess calcium
with a chaser of bloody vomit.

564
00:36:09,230 --> 00:36:12,901
Celiac patients are susceptible
to cancer of the stomach lining.

565
00:36:14,027 --> 00:36:17,071
- She has MALT lymphoma.
- Well, she's your patient, now.

566
00:36:19,115 --> 00:36:20,784
And it wasn't a date.

567
00:36:30,502 --> 00:36:33,797
- You don't have cancer.
- You don't have dwarfism.

568
00:36:33,922 --> 00:36:37,467
You have no proof of that.
I, on the other hand, have this.

569
00:36:40,386 --> 00:36:42,305
You ran a PCR on me without my
consent?

570
00:36:42,430 --> 00:36:44,516
- Hey, it's good news.
- Really?

571
00:36:44,641 --> 00:36:45,767
It's just hard to access

572
00:36:45,892 --> 00:36:48,895
because of this overwhelming sense
of personal violation.

573
00:36:49,979 --> 00:36:52,649
Deal with it on your own time.

574
00:36:52,774 --> 00:36:55,443
Bad news.

575
00:36:55,568 --> 00:36:57,153
Estrogen is too high.

576
00:36:57,278 --> 00:36:59,113
No matter how many people
you tell otherwise,

577
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,867
I am and always have been a woman.
Estrogen is normal.

578
00:37:02,992 --> 00:37:06,663
Not this much. Not for, at least,
another week.

579
00:37:06,788 --> 00:37:08,665
That's when you ovulate.

580
00:37:11,167 --> 00:37:17,048
You monitor my periods
based on when I get bitchy or...

581
00:37:17,882 --> 00:37:20,635
Once a month, when you leave
the kids' cancer ward,

582
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:22,804
your eyes glisten.

583
00:37:22,929 --> 00:37:25,098
And about three days later,
you break your ban on sugar

584
00:37:25,223 --> 00:37:30,353
and chow down a bucket of frozen yogurt
in the cafeteria. Sprinkles included.

585
00:37:30,478 --> 00:37:32,480
Based on the last yogurt sighting,

586
00:37:32,605 --> 00:37:34,774
you've got another week
before you ovulate.

587
00:37:36,901 --> 00:37:38,570
You're on fertility meds.

588
00:37:41,155 --> 00:37:43,825
With red clover as an herbal booster.

589
00:37:45,702 --> 00:37:48,538
And the dinner with Wilson
was an audition.

590
00:37:49,789 --> 00:37:53,668
It's too bad he didn't land the gig.
He would have had fun.

591
00:37:53,793 --> 00:37:56,921
I was considering a donation.
Not a party.

592
00:37:58,756 --> 00:38:02,010
So, when's our dinner?

593
00:38:04,095 --> 00:38:06,014
(WILSON TALKING INDISTINCTLY)

594
00:38:07,348 --> 00:38:10,727
- Oh, he's gonna be so disappointed.
- Right.

595
00:38:10,852 --> 00:38:13,938
You two are gonna have
a lot of fun with this.

596
00:38:14,063 --> 00:38:16,316
Your patient won't let me touch her.

597
00:38:23,656 --> 00:38:24,866
I killed my son.

598
00:38:29,913 --> 00:38:33,207
Is it my turn
to say something obvious now?

599
00:38:33,333 --> 00:38:35,627
Oh, I know. You were insane.

600
00:38:35,752 --> 00:38:37,962
I did it. I chose to do it.

601
00:38:38,087 --> 00:38:41,090
Yeah. Like diabetics choose
to not produce insulin.

602
00:38:43,468 --> 00:38:47,472
Listen. Someone got sick.
Someone died.

603
00:38:47,597 --> 00:38:49,015
It happens every day.

604
00:38:50,433 --> 00:38:53,353
The only difference in this case is,
it wasn't the same someone.

605
00:38:53,478 --> 00:38:54,896
I could have stopped.

606
00:38:56,481 --> 00:38:58,983
I didn't have to listen to those voices.

607
00:38:59,734 --> 00:39:01,778
Spoken like a true sane person.

608
00:39:03,821 --> 00:39:05,615
This is not your fault.

609
00:39:06,741 --> 00:39:08,076
You're healthy now.

610
00:39:09,410 --> 00:39:10,912
Except for the cancer.

611
00:39:12,789 --> 00:39:16,501
Those voices felt as real to me

612
00:39:16,626 --> 00:39:19,671
as Michael's hand

613
00:39:19,796 --> 00:39:22,632
right here, when he nursed,

614
00:39:22,757 --> 00:39:25,176
and the smell of his hair.

615
00:39:31,140 --> 00:39:34,352
You do not deserve to die.

616
00:39:36,813 --> 00:39:37,939
Maybe.

617
00:39:44,904 --> 00:39:46,322
I don't want to live.

618
00:39:53,496 --> 00:39:54,831
(DOOR OPENING)

619
00:39:57,875 --> 00:39:58,918
She said no.

620
00:39:59,043 --> 00:40:01,379
So we get her declared unstable,
appoint a medical proxy...

621
00:40:01,504 --> 00:40:05,383
She was unstable. Now, she's sane.
She's entitled to refuse the treatment.

622
00:40:05,508 --> 00:40:07,635
You have to change her mind.
You can't just walk away.

623
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,638
Fine! Go on in there and tell her
that every day is a blessing.

624
00:40:10,763 --> 00:40:14,976
"So you killed your baby? Shake it off.
Think positive. At least you're alive."

625
00:40:17,020 --> 00:40:18,438
Hmm.

626
00:40:18,563 --> 00:40:20,773
Kinda hard to sell when
you don't believe it, huh?

627
00:40:20,898 --> 00:40:21,941
And you never believed it.

628
00:40:22,066 --> 00:40:24,694
You just wanted all that crap
you went through to mean something.

629
00:40:24,819 --> 00:40:27,905
Well, it didn't mean anything.
It never does. Welcome back.

630
00:40:30,616 --> 00:40:33,578
Why are you doing this to me?
I was happy.

631
00:40:33,703 --> 00:40:35,329
You were aspiring to be content.

632
00:40:35,455 --> 00:40:39,375
Don't give me a semantic argument.
I was content with the way things were.

633
00:40:39,500 --> 00:40:40,877
- That's what happiness is.
- Yeah.

634
00:40:41,002 --> 00:40:42,879
If we were all just satisfied
with what we had,

635
00:40:43,004 --> 00:40:44,630
what a beautiful world it would be.

636
00:40:44,756 --> 00:40:46,716
We'd all slowly starve to death
in our own filth,

637
00:40:46,841 --> 00:40:48,843
but at least we'd be happy.

638
00:40:48,968 --> 00:40:52,055
Listen, I need your self-worth
to hang on this job.

639
00:40:52,180 --> 00:40:54,724
Kicking ass here to be all that
lets you rise above miserable.

640
00:40:54,849 --> 00:40:57,852
If waking up in the morning is enough,
I don't need you.

641
00:40:57,977 --> 00:40:59,645
I can live with that.

642
00:41:01,731 --> 00:41:04,108
No, you can't. Not any more.

643
00:41:32,887 --> 00:41:35,223
If you got treatment,
then maybe we could...

644
00:41:48,820 --> 00:41:50,071
When you see Mikey...

645
00:41:53,825 --> 00:41:55,910
...tell him his dad says he's sorry.

646
00:42:08,506 --> 00:42:09,632
Hi.

647
00:42:12,176 --> 00:42:13,886
- Night.
- Night.

648
00:42:17,014 --> 00:42:19,475
Did you tell Cuddy
we tested her for cancer?

649
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,185
- Yeah.
- And?

650
00:42:22,103 --> 00:42:23,563
It wasn't a date.

651
00:42:25,773 --> 00:42:27,608
Turned out she had some skin lesions.

652
00:42:27,733 --> 00:42:29,986
Guess there was
no genetic predisposition.
