what'd you do?

Don't look at me, 'cause you know I
didn't do it. All right?
10
00:00:38,727 --> 00:00:41,229
Hey! You better have put fresh batteries
in that thing like I told you.
11
00:00:41,355 --> 00:00:44,191
No. I did, Sarge. Right when
you gave them to me. I did.
12
00:00:44,316 --> 00:00:47,194
- I put them in.
- Well, then hit it or something.

Here.

Ex-Marine thinks
he has Gulf War syndrome.
28
00:02:12,112 --> 00:02:14,322
- There's no such thing.
- So he's been told.
29

It hasn't stopped the unexplained
fatigue, rashes and joint pain.
30

And just so you know, he's the nephew
of a benefactor I owe a favor,
31
00:02:22,038 --> 00:02:24,750
so you're gonna take this case
whether you like it or not.

Why wouldn't I want
to take the case?

The guy's tired and sore.
It's gonna be chapter one in my...

Don't shoot us. Don't die.

Never met him
before in my life.
37
00:02:48,190 --> 00:02:51,985
Okay. Well, you're about to.
He's on his way here.
38
00:02:52,110 --> 00:02:55,447
Get your ass up and get your team
together. You have work to do.
39
00:03:41,326 --> 00:03:43,620
- That's amazing.
- No, it's not.
40
00:03:44,454 --> 00:03:47,541
- It's not?
- I can play the harmonica with my nose,

or any other orifice for that matter,

being their agreement

But what I absolutely cannot do
is dream about someone
46
00:04:02,097 --> 00:04:03,807
I've never seen before.
47
00:04:04,307 --> 00:04:07,561
Well, just because you don't understand
it doesn't mean it can't happen.
48
00:04:07,686 --> 00:04:11,231
True. It can't happen
because it can't happen!
49
00:04:12,232 --> 00:04:15,610
Well, maybe you didn't dream
about this guy specifically.
50
00:04:16,403 --> 00:04:18,780
Right. Just some other guy
who looks exactly like him.
51
00:04:18,905 --> 00:04:21,324
No. You imagined
some generic Marine,
52
00:04:21,449 --> 00:04:24,786
then you placed his face
in the dream after you saw the picture.
53
00:04:24,911 --> 00:04:27,455
Sort of a coincidence mixed
I-Q with a little deja vu.
54
00:04:27,581 --> 00:04:29,958
HOUSE: There's no record
of him ever coming into the clinic,
55
00:04:30,083 --> 00:04:31,877
so I must've seen him
before somewhere else.
56
00:04:32,002 --> 00:04:34,129
Fine. You've known him
since Cub Scouts.
57
00:04:34,254 --> 00:04:37,465
The more interesting question
isn't what you dreamed, but why.
58
00:04:37,591 --> 00:04:42,053
I'm guessing you're longing for either
a renewed relationship with your dad,
59
00:04:43,388 --> 00:04:45,640
or a new relationship
with one of the Village People.
60
00:04:45,765 --> 00:04:47,684
He was in the Navy,
not the Marines.
61
00:04:47,809 --> 00:04:50,228
I thought your dad
was in the Marines.
62
00:04:50,353 --> 00:04:52,022
The guy in
the Village People.
63
00:04:52,731 --> 00:04:55,233
Actually he's only in the Navy
when they sing In the Navy.
64
00:04:55,358 --> 00:04:58,445
The rest of the time
he's just in generic fatigue.
65
00:04:59,988 --> 00:05:01,114
What?
66
00:05:01,948 --> 00:05:03,283
You brought it up!
67
00:05:05,493 --> 00:05:07,829
- You didn't flush.
- I didn't pee.
68
00:05:11,249 --> 00:05:15,795
Male, 34, just got out of the Marines
after two years in Iraq.
69
00:05:16,004 --> 00:05:18,381
Admitted complaining
of chronic fatigue,
70
00:05:18,506 --> 00:05:21,843
joint pains, intermittent rashes
and sore throats.
71
00:05:21,968 --> 00:05:23,637
Thinks he has
Gulf War syndrome.
72
00:05:23,762 --> 00:05:25,138
Why is he here
instead of the VA?
73
00:05:25,263 --> 00:05:28,308
Because he has a rich uncle
(Buddy's trying to avoid fellating,
74
00:05:28,433 --> 00:05:31,478
who doesn't buy the VA's diagnosis
of nothingswrongatosis.
75
00:05:31,603 --> 00:05:32,771
The VA's right.
76
00:05:33,104 --> 00:05:34,648
FOREMAN: There's no such thing
as Gulf War syndrome,
77
00:05:34,773 --> 00:05:37,067
especially in veterans
who've never served in the Gulf War.
78
00:05:37,192 --> 00:05:38,485
Different war, same place.
79
00:05:38,610 --> 00:05:41,154
CHASE: Whatever was there
in 1990 is still there.
80
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,031
What's there can send you home
in a pine box
81
00:05:43,156 --> 00:05:45,325
but it can't make you sick three months
after you've gotten home.
82
00:05:45,700 --> 00:05:49,412
What, so thousands of soldiers
are lying about their symptoms?
83
00:05:49,537 --> 00:05:52,624
You send 700,000 people
on a vacation to Hawaii,
84
00:05:52,749 --> 00:05:53,625
some are gonna come back sick.
85
00:05:53,750 --> 00:05:55,085
Doesn't mean it was
caused by snorkeling.
86
00:05:55,210 --> 00:05:56,086
He's right.
87
00:05:56,211 --> 00:05:58,296
The studies all show the same pattern
of symptoms in veterans
88
00:05:58,421 --> 00:06:00,674
who were sent to the Gulf
and those who weren't.
89
00:06:00,799 --> 00:06:01,758
That's it?
90
00:06:01,883 --> 00:06:03,343
You believe her but not me?
91
00:06:03,468 --> 00:06:05,220
Stick to your guns, Chase.
92
00:06:05,345 --> 00:06:07,389
Just 'cause there isn't
a single unifying symptom
93
00:06:07,514 --> 00:06:09,015
doesn't mean there isn't
something going on.
94
00:06:09,140 --> 00:06:10,684
It could just affect
everyone differently.
95
00:06:10,809 --> 00:06:12,727
You think this guy has
Gulf War syndrome?
96
00:06:12,852 --> 00:06:14,187
Of course not.
97
00:06:14,312 --> 00:06:16,690
He's depressed
and he's looking for a disability check,
98
00:06:16,815 --> 00:06:19,776
most likely because he's just realized
that knowing how to barter for sex
99
00:06:19,901 --> 00:06:22,696
in six languages and open a beer bottle
with your eye socket
100
00:06:22,821 --> 00:06:24,572
are not the most
marketable skills.
101
00:06:24,698 --> 00:06:25,532
Why did you take
this case?
102
00:06:25,657 --> 00:06:27,575
'Cause a good scientist
continually questions
103
00:06:27,701 --> 00:06:29,744
his own theories
and assumptions.
104
00:06:29,869 --> 00:06:32,706
- (Buddy's making him.
- And now I'm making you.
105
00:06:32,831 --> 00:06:35,750
Do a full physical and recheck
his blood for HIV, hep C,
106
00:06:35,875 --> 00:06:38,586
malaria, schistosomiasis,
and T strain A. Baumannii,
107
00:06:38,712 --> 00:06:40,797
just to make sure
the VA's dotted their I's.
108
00:06:40,922 --> 00:06:43,383
And find out every hospital and clinic
he's ever visited,
109
00:06:43,508 --> 00:06:48,722
every city he's ever lived in
and whether he's ever been on TV.
110
00:06:48,847 --> 00:06:49,931
TV?
111
00:06:50,056 --> 00:06:52,183
Problem could be neurological.
112
00:06:52,308 --> 00:06:55,061
Everyone knows
TV rots your brain.
113
00:06:56,813 --> 00:06:59,607
Well, it's usually the worst
on my palms and the bottom of my feet.
114
00:06:59,733 --> 00:07:02,777
I get these
black dots all over.
115
00:07:03,278 --> 00:07:05,655
- I don't see anything.
- It comes and goes.
116
00:07:05,780 --> 00:07:08,533
You're sure it's not
just scrapes and bruises?
117
00:07:09,659 --> 00:07:12,120
I know the difference between
a rash and a bruise.
118
00:07:12,245 --> 00:07:14,873
Sometimes it's harder than you realize
to distinguish between the two.
119
00:07:14,998 --> 00:07:16,624
You obviously exercise.
120
00:07:16,750 --> 00:07:18,418
My problems aren't caused
by my workouts.
121
00:07:18,543 --> 00:07:19,836
But you do work out.
122
00:07:19,961 --> 00:07:21,755
And by the look of you,
pretty strenuously.
123
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:23,882
That's not usually
the case with patients
124
00:07:24,007 --> 00:07:26,509
whose principal complaint
is chronic fatigue and joint pain.
125
00:07:26,634 --> 00:07:30,263
I was in the Marines for 12 years.
I'm used to doing PT every day.
126
00:07:30,388 --> 00:07:33,016
Just because I can push through the pain
doesn't mean it's not there.
127
00:07:33,141 --> 00:07:34,809
CHASE: We're not saying
we don't believe you.
128
00:07:34,934 --> 00:07:36,478
The hell you aren't.
129
00:07:36,603 --> 00:07:40,065
We just need to be specific about
what exactly the problems are.
130
00:07:42,275 --> 00:07:45,153
I sleep 10 hours a night
but I feel tired all the time.
131
00:07:45,361 --> 00:07:48,323
I constantly get coughs,
rashes, sore throats.
132
00:07:48,448 --> 00:07:51,451
My knees and hips feel like someone
poured sand in my joints.
133
00:07:51,576 --> 00:07:53,787
Get these weird tingling
sensations in my legs.
134
00:07:53,912 --> 00:07:58,083
Sometimes they're cold. Other times,
feels like my blood is boiling.
135
00:07:58,875 --> 00:08:00,460
Specific enough?
136
00:08:03,088 --> 00:08:05,215
Look, I don't care
what you guys call it.
137
00:08:05,340 --> 00:08:09,177
Gulf War syndrome, Iraq fever,
or just crappy sickness X.
138
00:08:09,302 --> 00:08:13,264
I just want someone to figure out what
it is so they can cure it.
139
00:08:14,682 --> 00:08:16,601
Except for the supposed
pain in his joints,
140
00:08:16,726 --> 00:08:19,312
none of the other symptoms he's
complaining about are currently evident.
141
00:08:19,437 --> 00:08:21,564
And besides low potassium,
probably caused by him
142
00:08:21,689 --> 00:08:23,441
over-hydrating
after working out.
143
00:08:23,566 --> 00:08:24,651
His blood work's all normal.
144
00:08:24,776 --> 00:08:28,613
Low potassium could also probably be
caused by the experimental vaccines
145
00:08:28,738 --> 00:08:32,033
and anti-chemical warfare pills he was
given before he deployed to Iraq.
146
00:08:32,158 --> 00:08:33,827
Not to mention the fact
that whole country is littered
147
00:08:33,952 --> 00:08:35,411
with hundreds of tons
of radioactive shrapnel
148
00:08:35,537 --> 00:08:37,705
from depleted uranium munitions.
149
00:08:37,831 --> 00:08:39,082
You go to medical school in France?
150
00:08:39,207 --> 00:08:40,959
There's no trace of uranium in his
urine.
151
00:08:41,084 --> 00:08:43,211
And he was given the vaccines
and meds two years ago
152
00:08:43,336 --> 00:08:45,588
without any allergic
or adverse reaction.
153
00:08:45,713 --> 00:08:47,799
Has he ever done
any modeling?
154
00:08:47,924 --> 00:08:49,759
We forgot to ask.
155
00:08:49,884 --> 00:08:51,803
We should send his urine to
the University of Leicester.
156
00:08:51,928 --> 00:08:52,887
There's a professor there
who's developed
157
00:08:53,012 --> 00:08:55,014
a more advanced
screening technique for uranium.
158
00:08:55,140 --> 00:08:56,975
If the levels are too low
for us to detect,
159
00:08:57,100 --> 00:09:00,270
they're way too low to cause any damage.
160
00:09:00,687 --> 00:09:02,647
Where are you going?
161
00:09:03,022 --> 00:09:04,274
This way.
162
00:09:04,399 --> 00:09:07,110
You find out about any television
or other media exposure?
163
00:09:07,235 --> 00:09:09,445
Do you really care or are you just
trying to waste hospital resources
164
00:09:09,571 --> 00:09:11,698
to get back at Cuddy
for making you take the case?
165
00:09:11,823 --> 00:09:13,366
Of course, I care.
166
00:09:13,491 --> 00:09:15,660
What a horrible thing to say.
167
00:09:15,785 --> 00:09:18,288
Do a Lexis-Nexis search and get a copy
of his credit report.
168
00:09:18,621 --> 00:09:20,915
Before or after we
tell him to eat a banana
169
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:22,375
and discharge him with a psych referral?
170
00:09:22,500 --> 00:09:23,585
I say before.
171
00:09:23,710 --> 00:09:26,504
And I say in between
give him a polysomnogram.
172
00:09:26,629 --> 00:09:30,091
Sleep apnea could cause
chronic fatigue and paranoia.
173
00:09:30,216 --> 00:09:32,927
And find out where he went
to summer camp.
174
00:09:36,472 --> 00:09:37,348
You Okay?
175
00:09:38,016 --> 00:09:40,435
Yeah. Just a little too
much coffee this morning.
176
00:09:40,560 --> 00:09:43,438
Were we walking you to
the bathroom?
177
00:09:43,563 --> 00:09:44,397
I wish.
178
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:49,944
Wilson was just in there.
These guys know what I'm talking about.
179
00:09:53,281 --> 00:09:56,159
CAMERON: That's his third REM cycle and
his breathing's completely normal.
180
00:09:56,284 --> 00:09:58,369
There's obviously nothing wrong
with his sleep pattern.
181
00:09:58,494 --> 00:10:01,206
CHASE: If it's not the uranium, it's got
to be some other sort of toxin.
182
00:10:01,331 --> 00:10:02,540
Or nothing at all.
183
00:10:02,665 --> 00:10:04,000
You really think there's something
wrong,
184
00:10:04,125 --> 00:10:06,127
or you just want Foreman to be wrong?
185
00:10:06,252 --> 00:10:07,253
Both.
186
00:10:07,378 --> 00:10:08,963
Well, it's not
his sleep pattern.
187
00:10:09,088 --> 00:10:12,050
If you really think it's a toxin, you
can do a liver biopsy in the morning.
188
00:10:12,175 --> 00:10:13,259
We can't leave.
189
00:10:13,384 --> 00:10:16,054
If we don't monitor the whole test,
House won't accept the results.
190
00:10:16,429 --> 00:10:17,472
He'll just make us
do it over.
191
00:10:17,597 --> 00:10:18,723
It doesn't take two doctors
to monitor
192
00:10:18,848 --> 00:10:21,684
what's clearly gonna be
a normal polysomnogram.
193
00:10:21,809 --> 00:10:24,145
Oh, so you want me to stay?
194
00:10:24,270 --> 00:10:25,647
You're the one that thought
there was something wrong.
195
00:10:25,772 --> 00:10:27,482
I never said
it was a sleep disorder.
196
00:10:27,607 --> 00:10:29,442
You wanna flip for it?
197
00:10:29,567 --> 00:10:30,652
(SCOFFS)
198
00:10:31,444 --> 00:10:33,154
Just go.
199
00:10:33,947 --> 00:10:37,033
Oh, come on. Don't be a baby.
200
00:10:39,619 --> 00:10:42,163
Fine. I'll stay.
201
00:10:48,503 --> 00:10:50,338
You know what we could do?
202
00:10:55,677 --> 00:10:57,011
- Here?
- Why not?
203
00:10:57,136 --> 00:10:59,138
We're surrounded by
empty rooms with beds in them.
204
00:10:59,264 --> 00:11:01,641
Yeah.
And video cameras, too.
205
00:11:01,766 --> 00:11:03,768
- So we turn them off.
- Yeah, that's all I need is
206
00:11:03,893 --> 00:11:05,353
House or Foreman
walking in on us.
207
00:11:05,478 --> 00:11:07,188
We have the keys.
208
00:11:08,356 --> 00:11:11,484
No. What if he wakes up?
209
00:11:11,609 --> 00:11:12,735
All right.
210
00:11:17,407 --> 00:11:19,075
Suit yourself.

(SIGHING)
212
00:11:38,386 --> 00:11:39,679
Damn it.
213
00:12:25,433 --> 00:12:29,437
Hello?
ls anybody out there?
214
00:12:31,272 --> 00:12:33,566
I think there's
a problem in here!
215
00:12:37,111 --> 00:12:38,154
What's wrong?
216
00:12:38,279 --> 00:12:40,698
What do you mean, "What's wrong?"
You don't smell that?
217
00:12:40,823 --> 00:12:42,033
Nothing smells, John.
218
00:12:42,158 --> 00:12:44,452
Oh, are you kidding me?
It's disgusting.
219
00:12:44,577 --> 00:12:47,455
How long have
you thought... Wait.
220
00:12:48,873 --> 00:12:50,458
Open your mouth.
221
00:12:54,170 --> 00:12:57,298
The smell's not in the room.
It's in your mouth.
222
00:12:59,759 --> 00:13:01,511
What's going on?
223
00:13:02,387 --> 00:13:03,596
Good question.
224
00:13:27,703 --> 00:13:29,247
(PILLS RATTLING)

226
00:13:41,801 --> 00:13:42,802
What?
227
00:13:42,927 --> 00:13:45,638
You were wrong about
the nothingswrongatosis.
228
00:13:45,763 --> 00:13:47,348
You can fake fatigue
and joint pain,
229
00:13:47,473 --> 00:13:50,143
but you can't fake
bacterial vaginosis in your mouth.
230
00:13:50,268 --> 00:13:51,227
HOUSE: Where's his mouth been?
231
00:13:51,352 --> 00:13:53,646
Says he hasn't performed
oral sex on anyone in over a year.
232
00:13:54,439 --> 00:13:55,815
Selfish bastard.
233
00:13:55,940 --> 00:13:58,985
Because he hasn't been with anyone since
his last girlfriend dumped him
234
00:13:59,110 --> 00:14:00,778
after he deployed to Iraq
the second time.
235
00:14:01,070 --> 00:14:02,238
Selfish bitch.
236
00:14:02,989 --> 00:14:06,659
We've ruled out HIV, diabetes
and any other endocrine abnormality.
237
00:14:06,784 --> 00:14:08,744
Could be autoimmune.
Sj6gren's decreases salivary flow,
238
00:14:09,203 --> 00:14:10,746
creates a hospitable
home for bacteria.
239
00:14:10,872 --> 00:14:12,457
No. His eyes and tear ducts
are fine.
240
00:14:12,582 --> 00:14:13,958
Who was his last girlfriend?
241
00:14:15,001 --> 00:14:17,253
Yeah, we'll get right on that.
242
00:14:17,378 --> 00:14:21,424
Chronic fatigue, joint pain and
opportunistic infection spells cancer.
243
00:14:21,799 --> 00:14:23,009
Probably lymphoma.
244
00:14:23,134 --> 00:14:26,262
FOREMAN: We should biopsy his
tonsillarand submandibular lymph nodes.
245
00:14:26,387 --> 00:14:28,681
Right about cancer,
wrong about lymphoma.
246
00:14:29,307 --> 00:14:32,143
Unless you're simply hidingthe fact
that his lymphnodes are swollen.
247
00:14:32,268 --> 00:14:36,355
Get Wilson to biopsy his salivary
glands. He's got parotid cancer.
248
00:14:36,481 --> 00:14:38,649
And see if you can get to the truth
about who he's been dating.
249
00:14:38,774 --> 00:14:42,361
No way, a Marine goes a yearwithout
getting some bloodon his bayonet.
250
00:14:42,487 --> 00:14:44,322
It's not an STD.
You just said...
251
00:14:44,447 --> 00:14:45,531
Just do it.
252
00:14:49,285 --> 00:14:51,579
The antibiotics should
at least relieve the infection,
253
00:14:51,704 --> 00:14:53,998
which will reduce the odor
and taste in your mouth.
254
00:14:54,123 --> 00:14:55,583
Not soon enough.
255
00:15:00,379 --> 00:15:03,257
All right.
You're gonna feel a little burn.
256
00:15:03,758 --> 00:15:06,010
You know I never even dipped?
257
00:15:06,511 --> 00:15:09,388
Chewing tobacco.
Practically everyone in my unit did it.
258
00:15:09,514 --> 00:15:13,059
But me. I was so paranoid
about cancer.
259
00:15:14,101 --> 00:15:18,564
Well, if it's parotid cancer,
it's very treatable if diagnosed early.
260
00:15:19,899 --> 00:15:23,611
My mom had cancer, which is why I know
that diagnosing cancer early
261
00:15:23,736 --> 00:15:26,113
means before
there's any serious symptoms.
262
00:15:31,577 --> 00:15:34,830
Certainly tastes like a pretty serious
symptom, you know?
263
00:15:34,956 --> 00:15:37,333
We'll know more
after the test.
264
00:15:37,583 --> 00:15:40,419
If he was just trying to
mess with Cuddy for wasting his time,
265
00:15:40,545 --> 00:15:42,213
this would have stopped as
soon as the patient started
266
00:15:42,338 --> 00:15:43,464
exhibiting actual symptoms.
267
00:15:43,589 --> 00:15:46,217
So the question is,
why is he wasting our time?
268
00:15:46,342 --> 00:15:47,760
Or is he wasting our time?
269
00:15:47,885 --> 00:15:50,930
You think he's got a medical reason for
asking for the guy's credit report?
270
00:15:51,055 --> 00:15:52,306
I don't.
271
00:15:52,765 --> 00:15:55,434
Where were you two
when the guy woke up?
272
00:15:57,728 --> 00:16:00,565
We just stepped out
for a second.
273
00:16:00,690 --> 00:16:02,316
To do what?
274
00:16:02,441 --> 00:16:06,112
To get a coffee.
We'd been up most of the night.
275
00:16:06,237 --> 00:16:08,573
He's just pushing to make sure
we have a complete history.
276
00:16:08,698 --> 00:16:12,243
Obviously we're missing
something or we'd have the answer.
277
00:16:12,368 --> 00:16:15,329
You didn't have any coffee
when you came back.
278
00:16:15,705 --> 00:16:18,916
All right already.
We confess. You caught us.
279
00:16:19,041 --> 00:16:20,918
We snuck into one of
the sleep lab rooms to have sex.
280
00:16:21,043 --> 00:16:23,462
We shouldn't have done it
while we were working and we're sorry.
281
00:16:23,588 --> 00:16:25,464
Now can we move on?
282
00:16:28,092 --> 00:16:30,469
House would do Wilson
before you'd do Chase.
283
00:16:30,595 --> 00:16:34,390
No. You would do House and Wilson
before I'd do Chase.
284
00:16:35,141 --> 00:16:37,101
Now can we
get back to work?
285
00:16:37,226 --> 00:16:38,269
She did me once.
286
00:16:39,228 --> 00:16:41,022
She was stoned!
287
00:16:53,242 --> 00:16:54,910
Biopsy's inconclusive.
288
00:16:55,036 --> 00:16:57,079
I'm gonna do a sialogram while we wait
for results
289
00:16:57,204 --> 00:16:58,164
from the additional blood work.
290
00:16:58,289 --> 00:16:59,332
No hurry.
291
00:16:59,457 --> 00:17:01,125
Probably nothing we can do
at this point anyway.
292
00:17:01,250 --> 00:17:02,668
As long as
the cancer hasn't spread...
293
00:17:02,793 --> 00:17:06,213
He's spitting stink.
You should focus on the living.
294
00:17:07,298 --> 00:17:09,383
I need a prescription.
295
00:17:09,884 --> 00:17:11,260
I just wrote you
a prescription.
296
00:17:11,385 --> 00:17:13,929
For Vicodin.
I need alfuzosin.
297
00:17:14,347 --> 00:17:15,723
No, you don't.
298
00:17:16,223 --> 00:17:18,559
You figured out
where you met your Marine?
299
00:17:18,684 --> 00:17:19,769
What?
300
00:17:20,311 --> 00:17:23,230
Oh, that. Haven't really
thought about it.
301
00:17:24,982 --> 00:17:26,067
I can't pee.
302
00:17:26,192 --> 00:17:27,526
You can't remember him,
can you?
303
00:17:27,652 --> 00:17:29,236
I can't pee.
304
00:17:29,362 --> 00:17:30,905
So stop taking the Vicodin.
305
00:17:31,030 --> 00:17:33,115
I want to pee
and not be in pain.
306
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:34,825
Why don't you go to sleep?
307
00:17:34,950 --> 00:17:36,285
I don't pee when I'm asleep.
308
00:17:36,410 --> 00:17:39,455
Maybe you'll dream about him
again. Maybe he'll give you an address.
309
00:17:39,580 --> 00:17:40,915
I haven't peed in three days.
310
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,918
I read that REM sleep is
the brain's way of working out problems.
311
00:17:44,043 --> 00:17:45,878
- Very useful.
- Did you hear what I just said?
312
00:17:46,003 --> 00:17:49,173
Yeah. You lied because you want to avoid
talking about your obsession.
313
00:17:49,298 --> 00:17:51,801
- I'm not obsessing.
- Why don't you just ask him?
314
00:17:51,926 --> 00:17:54,428
- I haven't peed in three days!
- You'd be dead.
315
00:17:54,553 --> 00:17:56,514
I'm not counting
intermittent drips.
316
00:17:56,639 --> 00:17:57,807
You'd be in agony.
317
00:17:57,932 --> 00:18:00,393
I passed agony
yesterday around 4:00.
318
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,413
His mother, brother,
uncle and best friend
319
00:18:20,538 --> 00:18:22,915
all confirm he hasn't had
a date in over a year.
320
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,500
Which means it's not an STD.
321
00:18:24,917 --> 00:18:28,170
If you come up with something
medically relevant, page me.
322
00:18:34,009 --> 00:18:35,594
What did you want me
to tell him? The truth?
323
00:18:35,845 --> 00:18:39,348
No. You didn't have
to be so convincing.
324
00:18:39,473 --> 00:18:41,684
Don't worry.
I'll make it up to you.
325
00:18:43,394 --> 00:18:45,563
This is getting
out of control.
326
00:18:45,688 --> 00:18:46,814
Don't pout.
327
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:51,444
Our patient woke up with an infection
while we were getting our rocks off.
328
00:18:53,070 --> 00:18:54,989
Do you want to stop?
329
00:18:55,114 --> 00:18:55,990
No.
330
00:18:56,490 --> 00:18:58,826
But I don't want to
get caught, either.
331
00:18:59,076 --> 00:19:00,077
You think I do?
332
00:19:00,578 --> 00:19:03,038
You certainly didn't go out of your way
to keep the volume down
333
00:19:03,164 --> 00:19:04,331
when we were
in the sleep lab.
334
00:19:04,457 --> 00:19:06,208
I couldn't help that.
335
00:19:08,377 --> 00:19:10,629
Why would I
want to get caught?
336
00:19:10,755 --> 00:19:14,091
Maybe you want to give House
a reason to be jealous.
337
00:19:15,050 --> 00:19:16,051
I'm over House.
338
00:19:17,261 --> 00:19:20,389
All this is, is uncomplicated sex.
Don't try to make it more than that.
339
00:19:20,639 --> 00:19:23,225
We're not doing it
at work anymore.
340
00:19:23,893 --> 00:19:25,060
Fine.
341
00:19:34,612 --> 00:19:36,655
Wanna go grab some lunch?
342
00:19:41,952 --> 00:19:43,579
I think the pill
is the way to go.
343
00:19:43,704 --> 00:19:45,581
We haven't had
a condom break yet. Thank God.
344
00:19:45,706 --> 00:19:49,627
But it's bound to happen,
especially the way we've been doing it.
345
00:19:51,170 --> 00:19:53,464
- On a bed of nails?
- No.
346
00:19:53,589 --> 00:19:57,551
He's not kinky.
He's just insatiable.
347
00:19:57,676 --> 00:20:00,679
I can barely make it
to any of my morning classes.
348
00:20:02,556 --> 00:20:04,558
- You smoke?
- No way.
349
00:20:05,518 --> 00:20:06,936
Stop it!
350
00:20:07,478 --> 00:20:08,771
Sorry.
351
00:20:10,689 --> 00:20:14,151
Any history of hypertension,
blood clots, strokes?
352
00:20:14,276 --> 00:20:17,238
Nope. Besides my 0CD,
I'm fit as a fiddle.
353
00:20:19,740 --> 00:20:23,118
- You have 0CD?
- Can't you tell?
354
00:20:23,244 --> 00:20:26,497
Any other compulsions besides drinking
massive amounts of water?
355
00:20:26,622 --> 00:20:28,249
No, that's it.
Thank God.
356
00:20:28,374 --> 00:20:30,584
My therapist says
it could be a lot worse.
357
00:20:30,709 --> 00:20:32,419
You get up in the middle
of the night to drink?
358
00:20:32,545 --> 00:20:34,213
Yeah. Every couple of hours.
359
00:20:35,047 --> 00:20:37,174
Then your therapist
is an idiot.
360
00:20:37,299 --> 00:20:39,552
Unconscious people
don't have 0CD.
361
00:20:39,677 --> 00:20:41,846
They can, whoever,
have diabetes insipidus.
362
00:20:41,971 --> 00:20:44,890
That's impossible.
I eat candy all the time.
363
00:20:45,015 --> 00:20:48,519
Different kind of diabetes. This kind is
caused by banged up pituitary.
364
00:20:48,644 --> 00:20:50,646
You're obviously more of
a lover than a fighter.
365
00:20:50,771 --> 00:20:52,064
I'm guessing either
a car accident
366
00:20:52,189 --> 00:20:55,442
or you cracked your
skull on the balance beam.
367
00:20:57,027 --> 00:20:58,654
How'd you know?
368
00:20:58,779 --> 00:21:03,117
Easy. Nice ass. No boobs. And you've got
palms like a longshoreman.
369
00:21:03,242 --> 00:21:05,286
Wait here.
You need a CAT scan.
370
00:21:05,411 --> 00:21:07,538
- Oh, my God...
- Don't worry.
371
00:21:07,663 --> 00:21:11,458
Just means you'll be taking
two hormone supplements instead of one.
372
00:21:16,005 --> 00:21:17,381
(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)
373
00:21:17,506 --> 00:21:19,383
Okay, this time
you're gonna feel a little pressure.
374
00:21:19,508 --> 00:21:21,552
We're injecting
the contrast material.
375
00:21:23,888 --> 00:21:25,598
Could you turn up the music?
376
00:21:25,723 --> 00:21:26,974
Sure.
377
00:21:29,018 --> 00:21:30,227
(VOLUME INCREASING)
378
00:21:32,521 --> 00:21:33,898
Looks pretty good so far.
379
00:21:34,231 --> 00:21:36,525
Still can't hear it that well.
380
00:21:38,527 --> 00:21:40,529
(VOLUME INCREASING)
381
00:21:40,654 --> 00:21:42,323
Can you hear it now?
382
00:21:43,198 --> 00:21:44,325
John?
383
00:21:46,285 --> 00:21:47,202
John!
384
00:21:48,495 --> 00:21:50,623
John, can you hear me?
385
00:21:52,541 --> 00:21:53,626
(DOOR OPENING)
386
00:21:55,586 --> 00:21:58,297
Still no relief?
387
00:21:58,422 --> 00:21:59,965
I got relief.
388
00:22:00,090 --> 00:22:01,800
I just got no pee.
389
00:22:02,509 --> 00:22:04,511
If the pills didn't work,
you may need a catheter.
390
00:22:04,637 --> 00:22:07,056
You didn't come here
to talk to me about my pee.
391
00:22:07,181 --> 00:22:08,682
What's going on?
392
00:22:09,391 --> 00:22:11,268
He's got cancer all right.
393
00:22:11,393 --> 00:22:14,605
But it's not in his salivary glands.
It's in his brain.
394
00:22:15,272 --> 00:22:19,401
And it's bad.
At least six tumors. Maybe more.
395
00:22:21,528 --> 00:22:24,698
He lost his hearing.
His sight's probably next.
396
00:22:25,741 --> 00:22:27,618
Death is probably next.
397
00:22:31,163 --> 00:22:33,374
HOUSE: No way he could've
grown all these in a week.
398
00:22:33,499 --> 00:22:36,502
They can't be older.
The VA couldn't have missed all these.
399
00:22:36,627 --> 00:22:38,921
Maybe they didn't miss them.
Just mixed them up.
400
00:22:39,046 --> 00:22:42,091
Switched his films with
another patient's by mistake.
401
00:22:42,216 --> 00:22:43,384
Maybe.
402
00:22:43,509 --> 00:22:46,136
It'd mean some poor sap's
getting his melon sliced
403
00:22:46,261 --> 00:22:47,513
at the VA for no reason.
404
00:22:47,638 --> 00:22:51,016
And this poor sergeant's
gonna be dead by the end of the week.
405
00:22:51,809 --> 00:22:52,810
Where've you two been?
406
00:22:52,935 --> 00:22:54,061
CAMERON: Lunch.
407
00:22:54,186 --> 00:22:55,604
Why? What happened?
408
00:22:55,729 --> 00:22:59,900
Wilson's found some fast-growing,
elusive or magic brain tumors.
409
00:23:00,317 --> 00:23:01,527
What did you find?
410
00:23:01,652 --> 00:23:03,904
Nothing.
He's telling the truth.
411
00:23:04,446 --> 00:23:05,280
About what?
412
00:23:05,406 --> 00:23:06,490
CHASE: About everything.
413
00:23:06,615 --> 00:23:08,158
Where he's lived,
who he's dated.
414
00:23:08,283 --> 00:23:10,411
Besides forgetting to mention
his dad's shin splints,
415
00:23:10,536 --> 00:23:13,831
his granddad's nosebleeds,
and to return a few rented DVDs,
416
00:23:13,956 --> 00:23:15,791
everything he's told us
has checked out.
417
00:23:15,916 --> 00:23:18,043
You have them
researching your dream?
418
00:23:18,335 --> 00:23:20,921
No. I have them
researching my patient.
419
00:23:21,255 --> 00:23:22,881
You had a dream
about a patient?
420
00:23:23,424 --> 00:23:25,634
This poor guy's brain
is riddled with tumors
421
00:23:25,759 --> 00:23:28,470
and you're checking his credit report?
422
00:23:31,598 --> 00:23:33,851
Come on. I need you guys.
423
00:23:33,976 --> 00:23:36,395
- Where are you going?
- To do my job.
424
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:37,855
He's not your patient.
425
00:23:37,980 --> 00:23:40,065
He is now.
Go home and go to sleep.
426
00:23:40,190 --> 00:23:43,027
Maybe you'll dream a cure
to late-stage brain cancer.
427
00:23:52,369 --> 00:23:53,579
How is he?
428
00:23:54,371 --> 00:23:55,539
He's dead.
429
00:23:56,165 --> 00:23:59,251
- Oh, God.
- At least he will be in a few days.
430
00:24:01,211 --> 00:24:02,963
Question is why.
431
00:24:03,088 --> 00:24:06,258
The only explanation is that
the VA hospital screwed up.
432
00:24:06,383 --> 00:24:09,386
There was definitely
no mix up. I had them recheck.
433
00:24:09,511 --> 00:24:13,891
Yes. Why would a government agency lie
to cover up a mistake
434
00:24:14,016 --> 00:24:15,434
that might have caused
the death of a guy
435
00:24:15,559 --> 00:24:17,603
they'd been trying to kill
for the last two years anyway?
436
00:24:17,728 --> 00:24:19,480
They didn't lie.
437
00:24:20,814 --> 00:24:22,858
Did you just take
two Vicodin?
438
00:24:22,983 --> 00:24:25,027
No. Just an antidepressant.
439
00:24:25,152 --> 00:24:28,363
I was told to take two every time
you walked into the room.
440
00:24:31,408 --> 00:24:34,328
The VA's scan of his brain.
No tumors.
441
00:24:35,537 --> 00:24:39,833
Yes. This is proof positive that someone
didn't have tumors in their brain.
442
00:24:39,958 --> 00:24:42,336
You see that bright spot
below his left orbit?
443
00:24:42,461 --> 00:24:45,798
That is a titanium pin your patient
had inserted 20 years ago.
444
00:24:45,923 --> 00:24:49,134
Unless you think the VA happened to mix
up his scans with someone
445
00:24:49,259 --> 00:24:52,387
who had the exact same pin,
they didn't screw up.
446
00:24:56,767 --> 00:24:58,310
You paged us?
447
00:24:59,603 --> 00:25:02,439
Why didn't you send his urine
to Leicester like I told you?
448
00:25:02,564 --> 00:25:04,775
Because you told me not to.
449
00:25:04,900 --> 00:25:07,486
Why did you choose that moment
to listen to me?
450
00:25:07,611 --> 00:25:10,155
You think depleted uranium might have
something to do with his tumors?
451
00:25:10,405 --> 00:25:12,491
Radiation's the only thing
that will make tumors grow that fast.
452
00:25:12,616 --> 00:25:14,243
High doses of radiation!
453
00:25:14,368 --> 00:25:16,370
Even if he ate
depleted uranium bullets for breakfast,
454
00:25:16,495 --> 00:25:18,163
he still would've been exposed
to less radiation
455
00:25:18,288 --> 00:25:19,748
than we've given him
in the last two days.
456
00:25:19,873 --> 00:25:23,919
Do it anyway.
And you, call his uncle back.
457
00:25:24,044 --> 00:25:27,673
Find out if he ever brought his nephew
to any hospital parties or fundraisers.
458
00:25:27,798 --> 00:25:30,092
No. Not until
you give me a reason.
459
00:25:31,051 --> 00:25:33,887
- Because I'm your boss?
- A rational reason.
460
00:25:34,012 --> 00:25:36,098
Or at least admit
that you don't have one.
461
00:25:36,223 --> 00:25:38,267
I've got a full bladder
and I'm not afraid to use it.
462
00:25:38,392 --> 00:25:40,060
But you are
apparently afraid
463
00:25:40,185 --> 00:25:42,312
of discovering something you can't
rationally explain...
464
00:25:42,437 --> 00:25:43,480
Shut up!
465
00:25:44,648 --> 00:25:46,400
Do what you're told.
466
00:25:47,484 --> 00:25:51,113
Cuddy and Wilson may not have
to listen to me, but you do.
467
00:25:55,909 --> 00:25:57,536
What the hell
was that all about?
468
00:25:57,661 --> 00:25:58,704
I don't care.
469
00:25:58,829 --> 00:26:01,623
Which is why I didn't feel the need to
ask him eight personal questions.
470
00:26:01,748 --> 00:26:03,375
I'm over him.
471
00:26:05,836 --> 00:26:07,963
Just making an observation.
472
00:26:11,425 --> 00:26:13,552
WILSON: All right.
Ready whenever you are.
473
00:26:13,677 --> 00:26:14,970
I'm ready.
474
00:26:18,015 --> 00:26:20,392
Wait a minute. Zoom in.
475
00:26:23,187 --> 00:26:26,231
I don't see it. You sure you got
the right coordinates?
476
00:26:26,690 --> 00:26:28,817
Yeah. She's in
the right place.
477
00:26:29,234 --> 00:26:32,529
Go 10 millimeters above the AC-PC line
on the Z axis.
478
00:26:32,654 --> 00:26:35,115
TECHNICIAN:
Ten mil above AC-PC on Z.
479
00:26:37,826 --> 00:26:38,869
It's not there anymore.
480
00:26:39,077 --> 00:26:40,621
Are you sure you got
the gantry angle right?
481
00:26:40,746 --> 00:26:43,540
- Yeah, I'm sure.
- It's not there.
482
00:26:46,376 --> 00:26:47,586
It disappeared.
483
00:26:47,711 --> 00:26:49,546
Six tumors don't
just disappear.
484
00:26:49,671 --> 00:26:51,465
Unless they were
never there to begin with.
485
00:26:51,590 --> 00:26:53,217
The VA didn't screw up.
486
00:26:53,425 --> 00:26:54,718
Maybe someone else did.
487
00:26:54,843 --> 00:26:56,345
Maybe it was
Dr. Self-Righteous.
488
00:26:56,470 --> 00:26:59,264
I saw the tumors.
There was no mix up.
489
00:26:59,389 --> 00:27:01,683
Maybe there's something wrong with
the portable imager in the OR.
490
00:27:01,808 --> 00:27:04,436
Something that would cause it
to show brain tissue in perfect detail
491
00:27:04,561 --> 00:27:06,730
but completely miss
neoplastic tissue?
492
00:27:07,397 --> 00:27:09,066
Then they were
never tumors to begin with.
493
00:27:09,191 --> 00:27:10,400
I told you I saw...
494
00:27:10,525 --> 00:27:14,988
Oh, you saw something that looked like
tumors. We all did. We were all wrong.
495
00:27:15,113 --> 00:27:16,114
Or maybe he doesn't
have cancer.
496
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,742
Maybe he has a brain infection
that's causing multiple abscesses.
497
00:27:18,867 --> 00:27:20,244
That miraculously healed?
498
00:27:20,369 --> 00:27:21,870
No. They were healed
by the antibiotics
499
00:27:21,995 --> 00:27:23,789
we're giving him for
the vaginosis in his mouth.
500
00:27:23,914 --> 00:27:27,334
If it's an infection, why didn't it show
up in his blood work?
501
00:27:27,459 --> 00:27:29,419
I don't know yet.
502
00:27:30,045 --> 00:27:32,339
Dr. Wilson,
we have a problem.
503
00:27:32,798 --> 00:27:34,591
What did you do?
504
00:27:34,716 --> 00:27:37,177
I can't feel my legs!
I can't feel my legs!
505
00:27:37,302 --> 00:27:38,262
- John".
- What did you guys do?
506
00:27:38,387 --> 00:27:39,680
John! Calm down!
We didn't even operate.
507
00:27:39,805 --> 00:27:41,098
Could this be
a regional effect?

ANESTHESIOLOGIST:
It's not the anesthesia.
510
00:27:43,475 --> 00:27:45,060
HOUSE: John! John!
511
00:27:45,185 --> 00:27:46,603
We're gonna figure out
what's wrong with you.
512
00:27:46,728 --> 00:27:52,901
But first we need to know one thing,
have you ever appeared in any porn?
513
00:27:56,863 --> 00:27:59,074
Chronic fatigue,
sore throats, rashes,
514
00:27:59,199 --> 00:28:02,327
putrid discharge in the mouth,
multiple abscesses in the brain,
515
00:28:02,452 --> 00:28:06,915
hearing loss, and last but not least,
lower limb paralysis.
516
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:08,917
He's certainly given us
plenty of clues.
517
00:28:09,042 --> 00:28:11,461
It's got to be
some sort of infection.
518
00:28:11,586 --> 00:28:13,588
That's miraculously improving
in his brain
519
00:28:13,714 --> 00:28:15,340
but getting worse
in his ears and legs?
520
00:28:15,966 --> 00:28:17,884
Could be an infection
and cancer.
521
00:28:18,176 --> 00:28:20,554
A neoplastic syndrome
could depress his immune system
522
00:28:20,846 --> 00:28:22,180
and cause the other symptoms.
523
00:28:22,389 --> 00:28:24,599
You're basing this theory
on the negative biopsy,
524
00:28:24,725 --> 00:28:26,226
the lymph nodes
that aren't swollen,
525
00:28:26,435 --> 00:28:28,854
or the tumors that were
never there to begin with?
526
00:28:28,979 --> 00:28:30,689
And what are you gonna base
your theory on?
527
00:28:30,814 --> 00:28:32,816
His favorite restaurants?
528
00:28:33,317 --> 00:28:34,609
I was right.
529
00:28:34,735 --> 00:28:37,904
He's excreting depleted
uranium in his urine.
530
00:28:38,030 --> 00:28:40,907
We should start him on an IV infusion
of isotonic sodium bicarbonate...
531
00:28:41,033 --> 00:28:42,451
It's not depleted uranium.
532
00:28:42,576 --> 00:28:43,744
- You're the one...
- Who asked for the test
533
00:28:43,869 --> 00:28:45,954
when we were thinking cancer.
We no longer are.
534
00:28:46,079 --> 00:28:48,206
Depleted uranium doesn't just
cause cells to mutate.
535
00:28:48,332 --> 00:28:49,624
It can cause
cell death as well.
536
00:28:49,750 --> 00:28:51,335
Not spinal cord cells.
537
00:28:51,460 --> 00:28:53,128
At least not before the dose
is high enough
538
00:28:53,253 --> 00:28:54,921
to kill
all his other cells first.
539
00:28:55,047 --> 00:28:58,592
So you're saying the radioactive uranium
in his urine is irrelevant.
540
00:28:59,176 --> 00:29:01,720
The sun's radioactive.
The earth is radioactive.
541
00:29:01,845 --> 00:29:03,889
This hospital is filled
with radiation.
542
00:29:04,014 --> 00:29:06,850
The issue is not where it is,
but how much there is,
543
00:29:06,975 --> 00:29:09,978
and what damage that amount can cause
in someone's spinal cord.
544
00:29:10,103 --> 00:29:12,856
As I've already
stated quite clearly.
545
00:29:12,981 --> 00:29:15,859
Got it. We're all idiots.
What's your theory?
546
00:29:15,984 --> 00:29:17,778

Why?

You ever tried to ride a motorcycle
with a distended bladder?
548
00:29:23,617 --> 00:29:26,953
Keep him on antibiotics, check his
hearing and paralysis every hour.
549
00:29:27,079 --> 00:29:28,997
So you basically
want us to do nothing?
550
00:29:29,122 --> 00:29:31,041
No. I basically
want to do nothing.
551
00:29:31,166 --> 00:29:32,667

keep him on antibiotics

Wait. You can't
go home now.
554
00:29:38,256 --> 00:29:40,092
Actually, I have to
go home now.

- But House...
- Isn't here.

If House wanted to be
involved in the case...
567
00:30:32,686 --> 00:30:33,812
...he wanted us to
start this treatment,
568
00:30:33,937 --> 00:30:36,064
he would have told us to do it
the last time you brought it up.

Last check it was
nearly to his diaphragm.

- Tells us something.
- Means it's getting worse.

Worse is something.
591
00:34:11,071 --> 00:34:12,906

it's not the uranium.

Did we think it was?
593
00:34:16,493 --> 00:34:20,205
We started him on sodium bicarb to try
to flush the uranium out of his system.
594
00:34:20,330 --> 00:34:23,541
Great. Now the fact that
he's getting worse tells us nothing.

Never thought it was uranium.

is what's making him...

wouldn't have any effect on...

than our patient.

As plain as
the nose on our faces.
658

And the nose on his face.
659
00:37:49,497 --> 00:37:51,249
What's going on?
What did he say?

No hairs and
cauterization scars.
661
00:37:54,836 --> 00:37:56,170
Which means?
662
00:37:56,921 --> 00:38:00,091
- He had it cauterized.
- How could you know that?

that plagued
his grandfather.
666
00:38:06,097 --> 00:38:07,640
Undoubtedly because they were both born

telangiectasia.
668
00:38:10,226 --> 00:38:11,060

I'm saying you have a genetic disease
that's destroying your capillaries.

That no one in his family's
ever been diagnosed with before?
671
00:38:17,108 --> 00:38:19,611
Not surprising,
since the most common initial symptoms,
672
00:38:19,736 --> 00:38:21,571
skin rashes and nosebleeds
are often written off
673
00:38:21,779 --> 00:38:24,532
as the result of
minor trauma or dry weather.
674
00:38:24,657 --> 00:38:28,286
But they can also be the result of his
arteries and veins merging together.
675
00:38:28,411 --> 00:38:30,246
He obviously has AVMs.
676
00:38:30,371 --> 00:38:31,956

caused the paralysis.
677
00:38:32,081 --> 00:38:35,126
AVM in his lungs prevented
his blood from being filtered.
678
00:38:35,251 --> 00:38:37,587
Dirty blood caused
the joint pain, fatigue,
679
00:38:37,712 --> 00:38:39,756
and the infections
in his mouth and brain.
680
00:38:40,089 --> 00:38:42,508
Nothing that a few surgeries
won't clear up.
681
00:38:43,009 --> 00:38:45,470
Get MR angiograms
of the aforementioned.
682
00:38:45,595 --> 00:38:47,889
The Marines weren't hiding
anything. He was.
683
00:38:48,222 --> 00:38:51,684
Or at least he forgot
to mention his bloody tissue issue.
684
00:38:53,436 --> 00:38:56,022
What's going on?
What did he say?
685
00:38:58,149 --> 00:38:59,734
(HUMMING)
686
00:39:01,235 --> 00:39:04,197
Well, looks like solving the case
solved your other problem.
687
00:39:04,322 --> 00:39:08,117
There is no medicine
like happiness. Except maybe laughter.
688
00:39:08,785 --> 00:39:11,412
Or rubber tubes
shoved up your urethra.
689
00:39:11,996 --> 00:39:13,581
You cathed yourself?
690
00:39:13,706 --> 00:39:17,877
It's actually not that bad after the
first, I don't know, 9 or 10 inches.
691
00:39:18,002 --> 00:39:20,755
The cath relieved the spasm.
I'm good as new.
692
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:22,757
Of course.
Just a minor spasm in a muscle
693
00:39:22,882 --> 00:39:25,134
you've been using multiple times a day
694
00:39:25,259 --> 00:39:28,054
without any problems
for the past 45 years.
695
00:39:28,179 --> 00:39:29,180
Not a major side effect
696
00:39:29,305 --> 00:39:33,059
caused by the overuse of a particular
narcotic painkiller.
697
00:39:33,184 --> 00:39:34,978
Yeah.
That was my thought, too.
698
00:39:35,103 --> 00:39:39,107
So, no reason to think about
cutting back on your use
699
00:39:39,232 --> 00:39:40,316
of that particular pill.
700
00:39:40,441 --> 00:39:41,859
Thank God!
701
00:39:42,110 --> 00:39:43,695
Actually, it was
the triple dose of the good stuff
702
00:39:43,820 --> 00:39:47,615
that allowed me to finally get some
sleep and solve the case.
703
00:39:47,740 --> 00:39:50,076
Pills made all my dreams
come true.
704
00:39:50,326 --> 00:39:53,246
You really got the answer
in your sleep?
705
00:39:53,371 --> 00:39:56,958
I got one in my sleep.
The other one I got in the shower.
706
00:40:03,297 --> 00:40:05,341
I've been thinking about you.
707
00:40:06,843 --> 00:40:08,219
You lied.
708
00:40:08,720 --> 00:40:09,971
I didn't lie.
709
00:40:10,096 --> 00:40:13,850
I simply chose not to share
completely irrelevant facts.
710
00:40:14,100 --> 00:40:16,269
Like the fact that you lied.
711
00:40:16,602 --> 00:40:19,022
No wonder I couldn't
place his face.
712
00:40:19,147 --> 00:40:21,357
You were practically
swallowing it on the dance floor.
713
00:40:21,482 --> 00:40:22,817
I was not.
714
00:40:22,942 --> 00:40:24,360
Talk about the cool uncle.
715
00:40:24,485 --> 00:40:27,947
He donates the money
and the nephew gets the write-off.
716
00:40:28,072 --> 00:40:30,408
And of course, by write-off,
I mean he gets to put your ankles...
717
00:40:30,533 --> 00:40:34,454
This is exactly why I didn't mention
our one date over two years ago.
718
00:40:35,705 --> 00:40:37,707
Because of my T-shirt.
719
00:40:37,832 --> 00:40:40,043
Because you are
an obnoxious ass.
720
00:40:40,543 --> 00:40:42,378
Because you would have
spent the whole time...
721
00:40:42,503 --> 00:40:43,463
That's very smart.
722
00:40:43,588 --> 00:40:46,799
'Cause this way I spent the whole time
completely focused on the patient.
723
00:40:46,924 --> 00:40:48,134
How did you even
remember him?
724
00:40:48,259 --> 00:40:50,094
We were only at that party
for like 10 minutes!
725
00:40:50,219 --> 00:40:52,055
Is this a new health plan?
726
00:40:52,180 --> 00:40:55,600
Service the Dean of Medicine, you get
free health care for a year?
727
00:40:57,393 --> 00:40:59,187
Why are you smiling?
728
00:40:59,854 --> 00:41:02,982
You remembered him
because he made out with me.
729
00:41:04,192 --> 00:41:06,027
I'm good with faces.
730
00:41:06,152 --> 00:41:08,946
So this plan,
is it open to anyone? ls there a co-pay?
731
00:41:09,072 --> 00:41:10,364
You're lousy with faces.
732
00:41:10,490 --> 00:41:13,493
Don't make this about me.
This is your humiliation.
733
00:41:13,618 --> 00:41:15,203
So how much for
private room coverage?
734
00:41:16,579 --> 00:41:17,663
Get over me.
735
00:41:19,248 --> 00:41:20,958
Give me a break.
You hired me...
736
00:41:21,084 --> 00:41:23,586
'Cause you're a good doctor who couldn't
get himself hired at a blood bank,
737
00:41:23,711 --> 00:41:25,171
so I got you cheap.
738
00:41:25,296 --> 00:41:26,923
You gave me everything I asked for
739
00:41:27,048 --> 00:41:28,925
because one night I gave you
everything...
740
00:41:29,050 --> 00:41:32,053
Stop staring at my ass
when you think I'm not looking,
741
00:41:32,178 --> 00:41:34,764
showing up at restaurants
where I happen to be on a date,
742
00:41:35,181 --> 00:41:37,600
and fantasizing about me
in the shower.
743
00:41:37,934 --> 00:41:40,186
That ship sailed
long ago, House.
744
00:41:40,978 --> 00:41:42,230
Get over it.
745
00:41:43,773 --> 00:41:45,691
If you're still referring
to your ass,
746
00:41:45,817 --> 00:41:49,862
I think that supertanker sailed would be
the more precise metaphor.
747
00:42:24,105 --> 00:42:25,148
Sorry.
748
00:42:25,273 --> 00:42:27,984
Just looking for
an extra-large trashcan.
749
00:42:34,198 --> 00:42:36,951
Since when does
he clean anything up?
