1
00:00:20,292 --> 00:00:21,793
(MUFFLED THUDDING)
2
00:00:30,719 --> 00:00:31,803
(DISTORTED)
He's got a good pulse.
3
00:00:31,928 --> 00:00:33,764
Maintain head stabilization
and flip him over.
4
00:00:33,889 --> 00:00:36,308
On my count, guys.
Ready? Go.
5
00:00:43,565 --> 00:00:45,359
Sir, we're paramedics.
6
00:00:45,484 --> 00:00:47,027
The mailman saw you
having a seizure.
7
00:00:47,152 --> 00:00:48,153
We had to break down
your door.
8
00:00:50,906 --> 00:00:52,658
You know
what your name is?
9
00:00:54,951 --> 00:00:58,246
On my count,
one, two, three, up.
10
00:01:00,791 --> 00:01:02,542
We're taking you
to the hospital.
11
00:01:04,461 --> 00:01:10,926
I can't. No, I can't.
No, I can't...
12
00:01:17,974 --> 00:01:21,395
Hey, buddy, buddy,
we're trying to help.
13
00:01:25,482 --> 00:01:26,316
PARAMEDIC: Sir.
14
00:01:26,441 --> 00:01:27,484
Stay out of my house.
15
00:01:27,609 --> 00:01:31,947
You just had a seizure, you could have
a stroke, a bleed in your brain.
16
00:01:32,072 --> 00:01:33,323
Leave me alone.
17
00:02:05,814 --> 00:02:09,192
35-year-old male, crushing headache,
and three seizures in the last two days.
18
00:02:09,317 --> 00:02:13,488
So it's a bleed, a clot,
a tumor, metabolic or infection.
19
00:02:13,613 --> 00:02:15,240
- Stick him in the CT and...
- Can't.
20
00:02:16,450 --> 00:02:18,535
I'm assuming he has
a giant head.
21
00:02:18,660 --> 00:02:21,455
Severe agoraphobe.
The world scares the hell out of him.
22
00:02:21,580 --> 00:02:23,749
So we can only test him
with whatever we can take to him.
23
00:02:23,874 --> 00:02:26,376
- Fun.
- The agoraphobia a symptom?
24
00:02:26,501 --> 00:02:28,003
Only of being shot.
25
00:02:28,128 --> 00:02:30,380
He and his girlfriend were mugged
seven years ago. It's when it started.
26
00:02:30,505 --> 00:02:33,175
Anybody can hate humanity
after getting shot.
27
00:02:33,300 --> 00:02:34,926
It takes a big man
to hate it beforehand.
28
00:02:35,051 --> 00:02:37,220
How did you get this case,
if he didn't come to the ER?
29
00:02:37,345 --> 00:02:39,765
I talked to him through his door
when he had flu last year.
30
00:02:39,890 --> 00:02:41,683
I run the Community
Outreach Program now.
31
00:02:41,808 --> 00:02:44,019
See?
Perfectly reasonable explanation.
32
00:02:44,144 --> 00:02:46,897
She's definitely not here
trying to work her way back on the team
33
00:02:47,022 --> 00:02:48,106
and steal your job
or anything.
34
00:02:48,231 --> 00:02:50,734
- It's a legitimate question.
- He agreed to meet with us.
35
00:02:50,859 --> 00:02:52,611
But even if I can get
inside his house,
36
00:02:52,736 --> 00:02:54,780
his brain
is a black box.
37
00:02:56,656 --> 00:02:58,283
We can pick this up
in a minute.
38
00:02:59,534 --> 00:03:02,788
- What's this?
- Takeout menus.
39
00:03:02,913 --> 00:03:04,206
But I'm hoping
you'll come up with a better answer
40
00:03:04,331 --> 00:03:06,666
when everyone asks
what we're talking about.
41
00:03:07,584 --> 00:03:09,544
- Last night...
- Forget it.
42
00:03:09,669 --> 00:03:11,880
I know this is awkward,
but we need to talk.
43
00:03:12,005 --> 00:03:15,383
There's a reason that we've evolved
the feeling of awkwardness.
44
00:03:15,509 --> 00:03:18,261
It tells us
not to talk about things.
45
00:03:18,386 --> 00:03:20,847
I was emotional
because of the adoption falling through,
46
00:03:20,972 --> 00:03:24,267
and you actually
let your human side show for a moment.
47
00:03:24,392 --> 00:03:25,977
That is why we kissed.
48
00:03:26,102 --> 00:03:30,065
I just want to say thank you
for not taking advantage.
49
00:03:31,024 --> 00:03:35,654
You're welcome. Any time you
want to stop kissing, I'm there for you.
50
00:03:38,323 --> 00:03:41,785
Portable equipment can't distinguish a
bleed or a tumor, can't see vasculitis.
51
00:03:41,910 --> 00:03:43,495
What did Cuddy want?
52
00:03:44,162 --> 00:03:47,916
I kind of hit that last night,
so now she's all on my jock.
53
00:03:48,041 --> 00:03:50,627
Wow. She looks pretty good
for someone on roofies.
54
00:03:50,752 --> 00:03:53,296
The only equipment we have
is a sonogram and a portable x-ray.
55
00:03:53,421 --> 00:03:57,717
What part of "olivine, pyroxene
and amphibole" don't you understand?
56
00:03:57,843 --> 00:04:00,428
Pyroxene?
"Pyro" means "fire."
57
00:04:00,554 --> 00:04:02,305
CAMERON:
They're indicator minerals.
58
00:04:02,430 --> 00:04:04,808
You can't see diamonds,
so you look for the indicator minerals.
59
00:04:04,933 --> 00:04:09,145
I assume the diamond
is the tumor or bleed or whatever it is.
60
00:04:09,271 --> 00:04:10,647
Provoke a seizure.
61
00:04:10,772 --> 00:04:12,816
The indicator
is the increased electrical activity
62
00:04:12,941 --> 00:04:16,194
focused around the abnormality.
We do an EEG, see the focus,
63
00:04:16,319 --> 00:04:19,489
see where the problem is,
which tells us what the problem is.
64
00:04:19,614 --> 00:04:23,159
The Formster and the Camster,
kicking it old school.
65
00:04:23,285 --> 00:04:26,413
Thank God she's not
trying to steal your job.
66
00:04:26,538 --> 00:04:29,374
Go do it,
and search the home for toxins.
67
00:04:30,876 --> 00:04:32,669
NOZICK: I agreed to talk,
not to let you in.
68
00:04:32,794 --> 00:04:34,045
You could be very sick.
69
00:04:34,170 --> 00:04:36,965
- We need access.
- I'm just not ready.
70
00:04:37,090 --> 00:04:38,508
Why does he have
two locked doors?
71
00:04:38,633 --> 00:04:40,385
He must use this room
as an airlock.
72
00:04:40,510 --> 00:04:43,096
Deliveries in, garbage out,
he never has to go outside.
73
00:04:43,221 --> 00:04:46,141
Just tell us when you are.
We're not going away.
74
00:04:46,266 --> 00:04:47,100
Seriously?
75
00:04:47,225 --> 00:04:48,059
THIRTEEN:
You want her to admit
76
00:04:48,184 --> 00:04:50,770
that all he has to do is ignore us
for a few minutes and we'll take off?
77
00:04:50,896 --> 00:04:52,939
He was shot,
girlfriend killed.
78
00:04:53,064 --> 00:04:54,816
He probably has
post-traumatic stress disorder.
79
00:04:54,941 --> 00:04:57,736
He doesn't believe in a just universe,
he doesn't trust anyone.
80
00:04:57,861 --> 00:04:59,154
Give him some honesty.
81
00:05:02,198 --> 00:05:03,825
I shouldn't have implied
we'd wait forever.
82
00:05:03,950 --> 00:05:07,662
We've got a whole hospital full of
patients. We can give you a few minutes,
83
00:05:07,787 --> 00:05:11,333
but eventually, if you don't let us in
we're going to have to leave.
84
00:05:14,044 --> 00:05:15,587
NOZICK:
Just one person comes in.
85
00:05:15,712 --> 00:05:18,632
No, we've got to search
the whole house for toxins.
86
00:05:20,175 --> 00:05:24,095
How about I examine you in one room,
and my colleagues will do the search?
87
00:05:25,180 --> 00:05:26,348
(LOCKS CLICKING)
88
00:05:31,102 --> 00:05:32,729
I'm going to try
to provoke a seizure.
89
00:05:32,854 --> 00:05:35,023
I need you to look
straight ahead, okay?
90
00:05:36,024 --> 00:05:36,858
Yeah.
91
00:05:36,983 --> 00:05:39,778
- Are you all right?
- Yeah, I just...
92
00:05:40,820 --> 00:05:44,366
I haven't been in a room
with anyone for a while.
93
00:05:44,491 --> 00:05:46,993
- Okay, can you just give me a second?
- Sure.
94
00:05:47,118 --> 00:05:48,244
Okay-
95
00:05:49,412 --> 00:05:52,499
You're the person I talked to
through the door last year, right?
96
00:05:52,624 --> 00:05:54,960
- Yeah.
- You were nice.
97
00:05:56,169 --> 00:06:00,632
And smart. Kind of made me
expect someone older.
98
00:06:00,757 --> 00:06:02,217
I'm not that young.
99
00:06:05,345 --> 00:06:09,933
- Must have been scary being shot.
- Don't do that. Okay.
100
00:06:10,058 --> 00:06:12,018
You don't know me.
101
00:06:13,228 --> 00:06:16,147
I've got everything
I want here.
102
00:06:16,272 --> 00:06:18,984
I make a lot of money
writing tech manuals.
103
00:06:19,109 --> 00:06:21,069
I get stuff delivered.
I work out.
104
00:06:21,194 --> 00:06:26,324
I see anything I want over the Web.
I'm happy here.
105
00:06:27,742 --> 00:06:30,996
- You don't seem very happy.
- Right now I'm not.
106
00:06:37,210 --> 00:06:38,503
Go away.

(SIGHS)
108
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,259
- Did you speak to Cuddy last night?
- She's fine.
109
00:06:44,384 --> 00:06:47,887
Why would it take anyone more than a
few hours to get over misplacing a baby?
110
00:06:48,013 --> 00:06:49,472
You spoke to her?
111
00:06:50,140 --> 00:06:53,727
Kind of hit that,
so she's all on my jock.

(EXCLAIMING IN DISBELIEF)

What?
114
00:07:00,483 --> 00:07:01,484
Huh!
115
00:07:01,693 --> 00:07:03,319
Everyone else thought
I was kidding.
116
00:07:03,445 --> 00:07:08,783
You "hit"?
Like making out or full-on sex or...
117
00:07:08,908 --> 00:07:11,786
I've got a chart laid out with all
the bases, I'll take you through it.
118
00:07:11,911 --> 00:07:14,414
- What are you going to do?
- What can I do?
119
00:07:14,539 --> 00:07:16,583
I'm gonna ignore her
for the rest of my life.
120
00:07:16,708 --> 00:07:18,793
This mosquito bite
kept me awake...
121
00:07:18,918 --> 00:07:20,170
Don't care
about the bug bite.
122
00:07:21,588 --> 00:07:22,547
She's your boss.
123
00:07:22,672 --> 00:07:24,883
So now I have two reasons
to ignore her.
124
00:07:26,926 --> 00:07:28,845
It was just a kiss.
125
00:07:28,970 --> 00:07:32,265
- There's a reason...
- Yes, those large things in her bra.
126
00:07:32,390 --> 00:07:35,643
...you were hiding it from me.
Means it meant something to you.
127
00:07:35,769 --> 00:07:39,397
Yeah, I fiendishly concealed it
within the phrase "I hit that."
128
00:07:39,522 --> 00:07:40,940
Stop scratching,
you'll draw blood.
129
00:07:41,066 --> 00:07:43,068
Finally,
you said something useful.
130
00:07:43,193 --> 00:07:46,154
I'm just gonna break the skin
and let the poison out.
131

(CELL PHONE RINGING)
132
00:07:47,697 --> 00:07:52,035
If you dated Cuddy,
there would...
133
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,996
Sorry, I get better reception
when you're not here.
134
00:07:56,289 --> 00:07:57,123
What do you got?
135
00:07:57,248 --> 00:07:58,208
TAUB: His place is totally clean.
136
00:07:58,333 --> 00:08:01,753
No animals. No hidden drugs or alcohol.
No lead in the paint.
137
00:08:01,878 --> 00:08:03,421
And since
you're not breathing hard,
138
00:08:03,546 --> 00:08:06,049
I assume you're not holding
Cameron aloft in triumph,
139
00:08:06,174 --> 00:08:07,634
which means no seizures.
140
00:08:08,968 --> 00:08:13,765
Hey, speaking of breathing hard...
Cameron, you engaged to Chase yet?
141
00:08:13,890 --> 00:08:14,933
THIRTEEN:
Sorry, we should have clarified.
142
00:08:15,058 --> 00:08:17,268
We're calling about the patient,
not Dr. Cameron's love life.
143
00:08:17,393 --> 00:08:18,436
We aren't engaged.
144
00:08:18,561 --> 00:08:20,814
Moves things along much faster
if you just give him the answers.
145
00:08:20,939 --> 00:08:22,398
Seizures can also
be induced through...
146
00:08:22,524 --> 00:08:24,651
- After six years?
- A year-and-a-half.
147
00:08:24,776 --> 00:08:26,319
Through sleep deprivation or...
148
00:08:26,444 --> 00:08:28,613
Sleep deprivation
would take too long.
149
00:08:28,738 --> 00:08:30,865
- You living together?
- We spend most nights together.
150
00:08:30,990 --> 00:08:34,160
There's a bunch of drugs
that can lower a seizure threshold.
151
00:08:34,285 --> 00:08:36,746
And cloud the diagnosis
with side effects.
152
00:08:36,871 --> 00:08:38,832
- His place or yours?
- His, usually.
153
00:08:38,957 --> 00:08:40,416
- Interesting.
- You would have said "interesting"
154
00:08:40,542 --> 00:08:41,793
no matter
what the answer.
155
00:08:41,918 --> 00:08:43,711
And no matter what the answer,
it would have been interesting.
156
00:08:43,837 --> 00:08:45,964
No engagement,
commitment issues.
157
00:08:46,089 --> 00:08:50,885
His place, control issues.
Not sure whose, but, interesting.
158
00:08:51,010 --> 00:08:52,679
Yeah, moves
much faster this way.
159
00:08:54,806 --> 00:08:56,516
Where was the patient
when he had his first seizure?
160
00:08:56,641 --> 00:08:58,935
In his entry hallway,
getting his mail.
161
00:08:59,060 --> 00:09:01,563
And getting close
to the outdoors.
162
00:09:01,688 --> 00:09:04,774
It spooked him, raised his BP.
Now use that fear.
163
00:09:04,899 --> 00:09:05,942
Bring him outside.
164
00:09:06,067 --> 00:09:07,402
He punched out
a fireman.
165
00:09:07,527 --> 00:09:08,862
We're doctors,
not bouncers.
166
00:09:10,446 --> 00:09:13,366
Okay.
So bring the outside to him.

Why are they here?
169
00:09:20,623 --> 00:09:23,793
They overheard me announce
the half-price bank foreclosure
170
00:09:23,918 --> 00:09:26,546
in the ER waiting room.
Where is everybody?
171
00:09:26,671 --> 00:09:30,758
Cameron's with the patient,
everybody else went home.
172
00:09:30,884 --> 00:09:35,180
Because they don't need to be here.
Neither do you, and yet you are.
173
00:09:35,889 --> 00:09:37,098
This way.
174
00:09:38,141 --> 00:09:39,726
Moldings original?
175
00:09:39,851 --> 00:09:42,437
Original?
They were here before the house.
176
00:09:45,148 --> 00:09:47,150
The shut-in
is also original.
177
00:09:48,318 --> 00:09:51,613
- Come on, don't be shy.
- House, get them out of here.
178
00:09:51,738 --> 00:09:55,783
Easy for you to say, you're not going
to be making some serious capital gains.
179
00:09:55,909 --> 00:09:57,243
(GROANING)
This is cruel.
180
00:09:57,368 --> 00:09:59,871
And leaving him undiagnosed
is what, altruistic?
181
00:10:03,249 --> 00:10:06,377
Procedure worked. He's seizing.
What do you see?
182
00:10:06,502 --> 00:10:09,088
Normal theta,
normal delta.
183
00:10:09,214 --> 00:10:10,590
This isn't a seizure.
184
00:10:10,715 --> 00:10:12,050
It's something.
185
00:10:12,175 --> 00:10:13,801
Mr. Nozick,
are you okay?
186
00:10:13,927 --> 00:10:15,678
My stomach.
It's killing me.
187
00:10:15,803 --> 00:10:17,972
See? It's something.
188
00:10:29,859 --> 00:10:31,319
KUTNER:
Partial small bowel obstruction.
189
00:10:31,444 --> 00:10:35,031
Blockage explains the pain. What
explains the blockage plus seizures?
190
00:10:35,156 --> 00:10:36,866
Atrial fibrillation
throwing emboli.
191
00:10:36,991 --> 00:10:38,409
Crohn's causing
an abscess.
192
00:10:38,534 --> 00:10:40,036
It could be
a million things.
193
00:10:40,161 --> 00:10:42,747
There's no way to know unless we get him
in for an MRI on his head,
194
00:10:42,872 --> 00:10:45,708
or exploratory surgery
so we can biopsy his bowels,
195
00:10:45,833 --> 00:10:47,585
- which he won't let us do.
- Wouldn't.
196
00:10:48,878 --> 00:10:50,672
Pain changes things.
197
00:10:51,881 --> 00:10:53,091
House.
198
00:10:56,135 --> 00:10:58,137
He told you
to stay out of here.
199
00:10:58,263 --> 00:11:01,140
He can chase me out
once he's done doubling up in agony.
200
00:11:01,891 --> 00:11:06,604
Whatever your big problem is has caused
a complication we call "colon FOS."
201
00:11:06,729 --> 00:11:10,775
"F-0", "full of," since we're
in mixed company, "S" is "stool."
202
00:11:10,900 --> 00:11:14,070
Nothing is coming out,
so the pain's gonna get worse and worse.
203
00:11:14,195 --> 00:11:16,447
So we need to stick
a pooper scooper in you.
204
00:11:16,572 --> 00:11:18,366
We also need to take
a look at your bowel.
205
00:11:18,491 --> 00:11:19,701
I made my wishes clear.
206
00:11:19,826 --> 00:11:22,453
Uh-huh. And, see,
if the Crazy Fairy were here,
207
00:11:22,578 --> 00:11:23,663
she could grant them.
208
00:11:23,788 --> 00:11:28,167
I'm not insane.
I feel pain when I go outside,
209
00:11:28,293 --> 00:11:30,837
so it's rational
to avoid that pain.
210
00:11:30,962 --> 00:11:32,880
Except now you're
feeling pain inside.
211
00:11:33,006 --> 00:11:34,674
Well, not as bad.
Nowhere near.
212
00:11:34,799 --> 00:11:36,050
We can give him drugs
for the blockage.
213
00:11:36,175 --> 00:11:37,635
If it doesn't work
214
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,054
that blockage
will rupture your intestines
215
00:11:40,179 --> 00:11:42,140
and spew sewage
throughout your body.
216
00:11:42,724 --> 00:11:45,977
Whatever you're scared of out there,
aren't you more scared of death?
217
00:11:47,437 --> 00:11:49,981
You, obviously,
can't stand people.
218
00:11:50,106 --> 00:11:52,608
But for me, it's worse.
All right?
219
00:11:52,734 --> 00:11:55,903
I'd rather die in here
than live out there.
220
00:12:02,118 --> 00:12:06,372
If you don't mind floppy hair
and an annoying accent,
221
00:12:06,497 --> 00:12:09,125
I know a surgeon who will
operate in your home.
222
00:12:11,044 --> 00:12:12,337
Thank you.
223
00:12:16,591 --> 00:12:19,010
With the risk of infection,
Chase won't actually...
224
00:12:19,135 --> 00:12:22,972
He's not gonna do surgery
in some crazy dude's house.
225
00:12:23,097 --> 00:12:24,891
- You just said...
- What I said was
226
00:12:25,016 --> 00:12:26,934
that Chase would put him under
at the house.
227
00:12:27,060 --> 00:12:28,895
We take him to the hospital,
open him up, do our thing,
228
00:12:29,020 --> 00:12:30,855
then slip him back into his room
for the post-op,
229
00:12:30,980 --> 00:12:33,566
without him ever finding out
that we tricked him.
230
00:12:34,067 --> 00:12:35,526
So, that was implied.
231
00:12:35,651 --> 00:12:36,903
- It's unethical.
- He'll be asleep.
232
00:12:37,028 --> 00:12:38,988
He gets to make his own calls,
even if he's asleep.
233
00:12:39,113 --> 00:12:40,531
Why are you
siding with him?
234
00:12:41,783 --> 00:12:46,120
Oh, yeah, you're that girl who likes
broken people because her husband died,
235
00:12:46,245 --> 00:12:47,372
and since Chase
isn't all that broken...
236
00:12:47,497 --> 00:12:49,457
Hey, why don't we operate
on his infarcted leg while we're at it?
237
00:12:49,582 --> 00:12:51,250
Who cares if he said no?
238
00:12:51,376 --> 00:12:53,169
I was risking my life
to avoid becoming a cripple,
239
00:12:53,294 --> 00:12:56,047
he's doing it to avoid
sunlight and fresh air.
240
00:12:59,133 --> 00:13:00,718
We've got to
make it look good.
241
00:13:12,814 --> 00:13:14,690
I know I'm a pain
in the ass.
242
00:13:15,608 --> 00:13:18,361
I know it would have been easy
just to walk away,
243
00:13:20,405 --> 00:13:22,031
but you're a good person.
244
00:13:29,414 --> 00:13:30,998
Count down from 10.
245
00:13:33,126 --> 00:13:35,670
NOZICK: Ten, nine,
246
00:13:36,671 --> 00:13:37,839

247
00:13:39,507 --> 00:13:40,842
Let's go.
248
00:13:58,025 --> 00:14:00,027
- How you doing?
- Better.
249
00:14:00,153 --> 00:14:01,362
Great.
250
00:14:02,113 --> 00:14:03,990
Everything else good?
251
00:14:04,490 --> 00:14:06,701
Everything involving me
kissing House is good.
252
00:14:06,826 --> 00:14:09,495
Oh, God, you dragged it out of me,
you're a genius.
253
00:14:10,705 --> 00:14:12,081
It's no big deal.
254
00:14:12,206 --> 00:14:16,544
I was feeling vulnerable,
he's a friend, and I leaned on him.
255
00:14:17,670 --> 00:14:19,922
It's funny.
I've leaned on friends in the past.
256
00:14:20,047 --> 00:14:23,468
Never leaned so far
my tongue fell into their mouths.
257
00:14:25,428 --> 00:14:28,806
I don't think of House that way.
I never have.
258
00:14:31,350 --> 00:14:32,685
Why not?
259
00:14:34,270 --> 00:14:35,813
You know exactly
how it would go.
260
00:14:35,980 --> 00:14:37,315
It would
start off exciting,
261
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,735
we'd get caught up in the novelty
and the hostility and the forbiddenness,
262
00:14:40,860 --> 00:14:45,031
and then we'd realize that
the flirty hostility is just hostility,
263
00:14:45,156 --> 00:14:48,326
his inability to open up
is no longer exciting,
264
00:14:48,451 --> 00:14:52,288
it's just frustrating,
and then it's the inevitable blow up
265
00:14:52,413 --> 00:14:56,375
and the recriminations,
and we don't talk for two months.
266
00:14:59,212 --> 00:15:04,217
Yeah. Well, it certainly proves you've
never thought about House that way.
267
00:15:06,677 --> 00:15:07,845
I get your point.
268
00:15:07,970 --> 00:15:10,056
I will be more careful with my tongue
in the future.
269
00:15:10,181 --> 00:15:11,349
That's not my point.
270
00:15:12,725 --> 00:15:17,688
Maybe novelty and hostility and
forbiddenness doesn't have to end bad.
271
00:15:20,691 --> 00:15:22,693
(PAGER BUZZING)
272
00:15:23,903 --> 00:15:25,446

Thought we could try
that new sushi place next to my house.
275
00:15:30,701 --> 00:15:32,578
Why don't we stay
at my house tonight?
276
00:15:32,703 --> 00:15:33,704
But we always stay at mine.
277
00:15:33,829 --> 00:15:37,166
That's what I mean.
We used to split, what happened?
278
00:15:37,291 --> 00:15:39,710
- I don't know, I'm closer to work.
- By five minutes.
279
00:15:39,835 --> 00:15:43,422
And my house doesn't look like it
was decorated by a drunk rugby player.
280
00:15:43,548 --> 00:15:45,633
Well, we can discuss it.
I hadn't really...
281
00:15:45,758 --> 00:15:49,011
Why does it have to be a discussion?
Can't you just stay over?
282
00:15:50,137 --> 00:15:54,016
You do know they page me when that much
surgical equipment is signed out.
283
00:15:55,685 --> 00:15:56,519
CUDDY: He didn't consent.
284
00:15:56,644 --> 00:15:57,687
He consented to the surgery.
285
00:15:57,812 --> 00:15:59,355
You think he's going
to sue over where?
286
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,190
He won't even know where.
He'll wake up in his house,
287
00:16:01,315 --> 00:16:02,358
he won't know a thing
about what happened.
288
00:16:02,483 --> 00:16:05,319
Until he catches a post surgical
infection in his dirty apartment
289
00:16:05,444 --> 00:16:08,698
and finds out we tricked him
and winds up owning the hospital.
290
00:16:09,407 --> 00:16:11,617
Why aren't you
arguing with her?
291
00:16:11,742 --> 00:16:12,994
Because she's right.
292
00:16:14,370 --> 00:16:16,622
I don't care where he gets the post-op,
just that he gets it.
293
00:16:16,747 --> 00:16:17,873
Keep him here.

That's weird. I usually
don't get the stigmata until Easter.

the patient's ready for him now.

- No, it's okay.
- Why'd you...

to keep you informed.

What did you do?
316
00:17:53,094 --> 00:17:56,097
Well done. Your patient
called his lawyer, threatened to sue us,
317
00:17:56,222 --> 00:17:59,183
is now heading home
completely undiagnosed.

He'll soon be on his way back.
319
00:18:01,185 --> 00:18:04,230
He's sick. He'll crash,
he'll lose consciousness,
320
00:18:04,355 --> 00:18:06,357
and I'll declare an emergency,
bring him back in.

now holds his health care proxy.

we have an emergency,

will be calling the shots.
324
00:18:14,448 --> 00:18:17,284
I made the right call. If he
had flipped out after major surgery,
325
00:18:17,410 --> 00:18:18,285
it would have been worse.
326
00:18:18,411 --> 00:18:21,872
The benefit of being boss
is that I don't have to argue.

her? She just threw us off the case.

is a lot easier.

00:18:45,688 --> 00:18:49,650
If this thing kills him before we
can diagnose, it won't be fun anymore.
335
00:18:51,527 --> 00:18:52,486
Okay-
336
00:18:53,112 --> 00:18:54,613
You're going to
keep working on this?
337
00:18:54,739 --> 00:18:56,407
Yeah.
I brought in the case.
338
00:18:56,532 --> 00:18:59,577
There is no case. He's gone, you've been
tossed. This is totally nuts.
339
00:18:59,702 --> 00:19:01,120
He's incredibly sick.
We don't know...
340
00:19:01,245 --> 00:19:02,246
Fine,
forget about the patient.
341
00:19:02,371 --> 00:19:03,831
What is going on
with you?
342
00:19:03,998 --> 00:19:05,291
This is why we left
House's team.
343
00:19:05,416 --> 00:19:07,376
To avoid this constant flood
of pure craziness.
344
00:19:07,501 --> 00:19:10,129
That's why I left House.
You got fired.
345
00:19:14,008 --> 00:19:16,510
I'm sorry.
I know I let you down.
346
00:19:17,678 --> 00:19:18,846
But you know
who else I let down?
347
00:19:18,971 --> 00:19:22,308
Pretty much everyone
who's important to me.
348
00:19:23,350 --> 00:19:25,644
My boss, my old boss,
349
00:19:27,104 --> 00:19:28,564
my boyfriend.
350
00:19:31,650 --> 00:19:33,152
I did that for you.
351
00:19:36,363 --> 00:19:38,407
I'm not gonna
let you down again.
352
00:19:39,366 --> 00:19:41,160
(LOCKS CLICKING)
353
00:19:51,295 --> 00:19:54,048
WILSON: It's like
the red badge of idiocy.
354
00:19:54,465 --> 00:19:57,301
If the Confederacy
had mosquitoes,
355
00:19:57,426 --> 00:20:00,513
we'd all have Southern accents,
and I'd be paying Foreman less.
356
00:20:01,555 --> 00:20:03,432
She kicked you
off the case.
357
00:20:03,891 --> 00:20:06,393
This is what happens
when you don't address it.
358
00:20:06,519 --> 00:20:09,355
She acts weird,
things get different.
359
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,442
You understand that
different implies difference?
360
00:20:13,567 --> 00:20:15,528
She's tossed me
a million times before.
361
00:20:15,653 --> 00:20:17,947
No,
she always chastises you,
362
00:20:18,072 --> 00:20:20,074
and you'd always
come running to me to complain,
363
00:20:20,199 --> 00:20:21,951
so you're acting different, too.
364
00:20:22,076 --> 00:20:25,704
(SIGHS) You're scared.
You are scared to get involved.
365
00:20:26,914 --> 00:20:29,500
How is that scared?
It's rational.
366
00:20:30,417 --> 00:20:34,004
Emotionally mature people
who work together should not date.
367
00:20:34,129 --> 00:20:36,465
Guaranteed break-up,
guaranteed ugliness.
368
00:20:36,590 --> 00:20:39,593
Any relationship that doesn't end
in a break-up, ends in death.
369
00:20:39,718 --> 00:20:41,136
Everything falls
apart in the end.
370
00:20:41,262 --> 00:20:42,555
That's your worldview.
371
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,557
The corollary,
which you keep forgetting,
372
00:20:44,682 --> 00:20:48,018
is that you have to grab
any chance for happiness.
373
00:20:48,143 --> 00:20:50,521
Why does this matter
so much to you?
374
00:20:50,646 --> 00:20:51,856
Cuddy and I are fine.
375
00:20:52,523 --> 00:20:54,525
The only person getting
worked up here is you.
376
00:20:54,650 --> 00:20:57,403
I don't want you to be fine,
I want you to be happy.
377
00:20:57,528 --> 00:20:59,238
I think if you dated her...
378
00:20:59,363 --> 00:21:02,783
Are you familiar
with the adverb "vicariously"?
379
00:21:02,908 --> 00:21:05,202
- If I wanted to ask her out...
- You did ask her out.
380
00:21:05,327 --> 00:21:07,663
Last year.
Whatever happened there?
381
00:21:07,788 --> 00:21:10,499
I don't know,
I wasn't interested.
382
00:21:10,624 --> 00:21:11,500
Wrong.
383
00:21:11,625 --> 00:21:15,170
You were interested,
but Amber grabbed your genitals first.
384
00:21:15,296 --> 00:21:17,172
And now you're single,
and it makes you miserable,
385
00:21:17,298 --> 00:21:19,341
but you think it's too soon
for another relationship,
386
00:21:19,466 --> 00:21:21,427
so you're gonna
make me miserable.
387
00:21:21,552 --> 00:21:24,513
Please.
Get a girlfriend or a life or something.
388
00:21:24,638 --> 00:21:25,556
For me.
389
00:21:28,851 --> 00:21:30,394
HOUSE: Better or worse?
390
00:21:30,519 --> 00:21:32,605
CAMERON: Worse.
Drugs aren't working.
391
00:21:32,730 --> 00:21:35,232
I think we should do the surgery
in his house, like we planned.
392
00:21:35,357 --> 00:21:36,817
Well, then one of us
wasn't paying attention
393
00:21:36,942 --> 00:21:39,153
because I thought that surgery thing
was just a trick.
394
00:21:39,278 --> 00:21:40,988
We prepared the room.
We hung the drapes.
395
00:21:41,113 --> 00:21:42,114
It's probably 10 times as sterile
396
00:21:42,239 --> 00:21:44,450
as any mobile operating theater
you'd find in a battlefield.
397
00:21:44,575 --> 00:21:46,118
We still need
Trapper John.
398
00:21:46,243 --> 00:21:48,579
Chase doesn't want
anywhere near this surgery.
399
00:21:48,704 --> 00:21:50,164
Maybe you could
talk to him.
400
00:21:50,289 --> 00:21:51,999
I can't understand
a word he says.
401
00:21:52,124 --> 00:21:55,085
Taub,
you doing anything later?
402
00:21:57,379 --> 00:21:58,839
Blood in the field.
403
00:22:00,341 --> 00:22:01,634
Not where I'm looking.
404
00:22:01,759 --> 00:22:03,260
How am I supposed to know
where you're looking?
405
00:22:03,385 --> 00:22:05,346
Here's a hint.
It's the bloody part.
406
00:22:05,471 --> 00:22:07,431
The whole thing's bloody.
It's a guy with a hole in his body.
407
00:22:07,556 --> 00:22:09,224
It's like you've never done this before.
Use the suction.
408
00:22:09,350 --> 00:22:11,268
I will. And, in fact,
I've never done this before
409
00:22:11,393 --> 00:22:13,938
because I went to med school,
not nurse school.
410
00:22:14,063 --> 00:22:16,815
Hey, wanna see
if your client's actually made of money?
411
00:22:16,941 --> 00:22:19,485
TAUB: Cutting out
the last piece of bowel.
412
00:22:23,656 --> 00:22:25,074
Suture.
413
00:22:28,661 --> 00:22:32,122
Mucosa's pink.
Flattened villi.
414
00:22:32,247 --> 00:22:35,000
Intestinal atrophy.
It's Whipple's Disease.
415
00:22:35,125 --> 00:22:37,378
Explains the seizure
and the stomach pain.
416
00:22:37,503 --> 00:22:40,381
Little bleeder here.
Cautery.
417
00:22:42,841 --> 00:22:44,760
Hey, wait, the gas...
418
00:22:53,310 --> 00:22:55,396
That always happens
during surgery.
419
00:22:55,521 --> 00:22:58,482
It's the gas build-up in the blockage,
nothing to sue about.
420
00:22:58,607 --> 00:23:01,276
Treat him for the burns, put him
on antibiotics for the Whipple's.
421
00:23:01,402 --> 00:23:02,778
He'll be fine.
422
00:23:12,746 --> 00:23:15,416
Hey.
That's nice of you.
423
00:23:15,916 --> 00:23:17,543
- Hi.
- Hi.
424
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,296
He doing good?
425
00:23:22,089 --> 00:23:25,009
Burns are healing fine.
He's stable otherwise.
426
00:23:25,134 --> 00:23:29,013
Good. So, I could stay
at your place tonight, if you like.
427
00:23:29,138 --> 00:23:30,514
I can't.
428
00:23:32,307 --> 00:23:34,601
Well, you're not gonna
sleep here again?
429
00:23:34,727 --> 00:23:36,687
You might have noticed
the lack of nurses.
430
00:23:36,812 --> 00:23:39,148
Because you're not on the case.
431
00:23:39,273 --> 00:23:40,816
You can't really use that
as an excuse for...
432
00:23:40,941 --> 00:23:42,568
NOZICK: Dr. Cameron.
433
00:23:42,693 --> 00:23:43,777
Wait here.
434
00:23:48,115 --> 00:23:51,118
- Your stomach?
- My legs are numb.
435
00:23:51,243 --> 00:23:53,162
I can't feel them at all.
436
00:23:56,540 --> 00:23:59,585
New symptom, peripheral neuropathy.
Got worse on antibiotics.
437
00:23:59,710 --> 00:24:00,544
It's not Whipple's.
438
00:24:00,669 --> 00:24:01,503
KUTNER: Porphyria.
439
00:24:01,628 --> 00:24:02,504
CAMERON: Liver's fine.
440
00:24:02,629 --> 00:24:03,464
Amyloidosis.
441
00:24:03,589 --> 00:24:05,132
We'd have seen it
on the intestines.
442
00:24:05,257 --> 00:24:07,551
What did we see
on the intestines?
443
00:24:07,676 --> 00:24:11,680
Pink mucosa, flattened villi. If it's
not Whipple's, it's gotta be celiac.
444
00:24:11,805 --> 00:24:13,766
Wheat allergy
means he's not absorbing nutrients.
445
00:24:13,891 --> 00:24:15,893
Explains the seizures,
the stomach and now the nerves.
446
00:24:16,018 --> 00:24:17,561
THIRTEEN: We should run
a blood test for celiac.
447
00:24:17,686 --> 00:24:22,232
Not fast enough, not accurate enough.
Force feed him wheat.
448
00:24:22,357 --> 00:24:24,401
Then do an endoscopy
as it hits his duodenum.
449
00:24:24,526 --> 00:24:26,028
See if there's
an allergic reaction.
450
00:24:26,153 --> 00:24:29,948
His guts just exploded. It might be
a tad painful to make him eat.
451
00:24:30,074 --> 00:24:32,993
That's House's point.
There's nothing diagnostic about it.
452
00:24:33,118 --> 00:24:35,329
He's trying to put the patient in pain,
force him to come in.
453
00:24:35,454 --> 00:24:36,497
It is a valid test.
454
00:24:36,622 --> 00:24:39,083
So is the blood test,
which is painless.
455
00:24:39,208 --> 00:24:42,669
HOUSE: Foreman, listen to
that little voice in your head
456
00:24:42,795 --> 00:24:46,548
that's coming from the telephone.
Force feed him.
457
00:24:46,673 --> 00:24:50,052
Don't. You know House.
You know I'm right.
458
00:24:50,177 --> 00:24:52,012
We'll do both tests.
459
00:25:00,020 --> 00:25:01,939
I'm not here to
play matchmaker.
460
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:04,900
Okay-
461
00:25:05,025 --> 00:25:06,610
House basically...
462
00:25:07,528 --> 00:25:11,990
Well, he accused me
of being interested in you.
463
00:25:13,325 --> 00:25:15,661
He's just trying
to change the subject.
464
00:25:15,786 --> 00:25:18,872
I know. But I do have...
465
00:25:21,458 --> 00:25:24,711
I've always had
466
00:25:24,837 --> 00:25:26,839
some feelings for you.
467
00:25:29,216 --> 00:25:31,468
Are you saying
you want to date me?
468
00:25:31,593 --> 00:25:32,803
No, I...
469
00:25:33,470 --> 00:25:36,890
It wouldn't be fair to House,
and it's too soon after Amber.
470
00:25:38,892 --> 00:25:41,436
But you thought
you should just say it?
471
00:25:41,562 --> 00:25:43,397
Yeah, I thought
you should know.
472
00:25:47,693 --> 00:25:49,611
Let's have dinner
tomorrow night.
473
00:25:52,406 --> 00:25:53,657
Okay-
474
00:25:55,075 --> 00:25:58,495
Or maybe it'd be better
if we just had sex.
475
00:26:00,372 --> 00:26:01,248
Pardon me?
476
00:26:01,373 --> 00:26:03,041
In front of House's office.
477
00:26:03,167 --> 00:26:05,544
I mean, I don't want to
take any chances.
478
00:26:05,669 --> 00:26:08,380
I assume the point of this
is to make him jealous,
479
00:26:08,505 --> 00:26:11,550
to make him realize that
he does want a relationship with me.
480
00:26:13,302 --> 00:26:14,511
Yes.
481
00:26:15,554 --> 00:26:17,347
You think it'll work?
482
00:26:17,472 --> 00:26:19,099
You're an idiot.
483
00:26:19,224 --> 00:26:23,312
Trust me, everybody will be happier
if House and I aren't dating.
484
00:26:32,863 --> 00:26:34,448
You sure
this is the best test?
485
00:26:34,573 --> 00:26:37,201
No. But you've kind of
tied our hands.
486
00:26:37,326 --> 00:26:40,287
As soon as this hits your intestines,
I'll look at it through an endoscope.
487
00:26:43,081 --> 00:26:45,417
Stewart, I know you don't want
to talk about this,
488
00:26:47,461 --> 00:26:50,255
but people who get shot
often get PTSD.
489
00:26:50,380 --> 00:26:51,965
It's nothing
to be ashamed of.
490
00:26:52,466 --> 00:26:56,094
It's very treatable
with drugs and therapy.
491
00:26:56,220 --> 00:26:57,721
It's not PTSD.
492
00:26:59,806 --> 00:27:03,727
My girlfriend was with me
when I got shot, and she died.
493
00:27:05,395 --> 00:27:06,730
(SIGHS)
494
00:27:07,314 --> 00:27:09,024
(WHISPERING)
I'm sorry.
495
00:27:09,149 --> 00:27:11,318
But that's what I mean.
I lost someone myself.
496
00:27:12,694 --> 00:27:14,279
I know it's traumatic.
497
00:27:15,656 --> 00:27:18,700
No. What I'm trying
to say is that
498
00:27:20,869 --> 00:27:25,165
I was like this before the shooting,
since I was a kid.
499
00:27:26,291 --> 00:27:29,378
Everything was hard for me.
500
00:27:31,964 --> 00:27:35,425
I didn't go out that much,
and when I did,
501
00:27:37,886 --> 00:27:42,849
I had panic attacks,
like, physical pain.
502
00:27:42,975 --> 00:27:46,687
You know, it was, like, worse,
it was like I was dying.
503
00:27:47,688 --> 00:27:49,439
When I met Angela,
504
00:27:50,190 --> 00:27:53,193
she was the only reason
505
00:27:54,236 --> 00:27:56,405
that I ever
wanted to go out.
506
00:27:58,490 --> 00:28:01,201
But then she died, and...
507
00:28:03,829 --> 00:28:05,706
(HEAVING)
508
00:28:14,881 --> 00:28:16,717
Blood test
will be done soon.
509
00:28:23,765 --> 00:28:25,934
I'm guessing
that's a new technique.
510
00:28:26,059 --> 00:28:28,061
Hey, do you remember
that idea that Cameron had
511
00:28:28,186 --> 00:28:30,731
about trying to torture the patient
into admitting himself?
512
00:28:30,856 --> 00:28:32,649
Pretty sure
it was your idea.
513
00:28:32,774 --> 00:28:34,276
You want me
to slow down the test?
514
00:28:34,401 --> 00:28:37,696
Wow, everyone's got
all these great ideas today.
515
00:28:37,821 --> 00:28:40,907
So you're thinking, "Patient won't leave
because leaving causes pain,
516
00:28:41,033 --> 00:28:42,451
"so we gotta make
staying more painful."
517
00:28:42,576 --> 00:28:43,702
That actually makes sense.
518
00:28:43,827 --> 00:28:46,204
You'll increase his pain,
but not enough to make a difference.
519
00:28:46,330 --> 00:28:47,289
He's on morphine.
520
00:28:47,414 --> 00:28:48,665
He's on morphine now,
521
00:28:48,790 --> 00:28:51,001
pretty soon,
he'll be on lessphine.
522
00:28:51,126 --> 00:28:55,589
'Cause when you restock, you'll actually
be giving Cameron IV bags of saline.
523
00:28:55,714 --> 00:28:57,341
And why do you think
I'll be doing this?
524
00:28:57,466 --> 00:28:58,550
Same reason
you did the surgery.
525
00:28:58,675 --> 00:29:00,594
That was because
it was an emergency.
526
00:29:00,719 --> 00:29:04,473
No, it was because
your marriage is falling apart.
527
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,603
When you confess adultery,
things tend to go bad.

When one part of your life
does a Titanic,
529
00:29:13,315 --> 00:29:15,525
you make a life raft
out of whatever's left,
530
00:29:15,650 --> 00:29:18,070
which makes your job more significant,
which is why you did the surgery,
531
00:29:18,195 --> 00:29:21,907
why you pulled an all-nighter,
and why you'll do this.
532

00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:22,303
You're giving up?
673
00:37:22,428 --> 00:37:23,721
Call Taub.
674
00:37:23,847 --> 00:37:28,184
Tell him to pick up some morphine.
No need for the patient to be in pain.
675
00:37:28,309 --> 00:37:31,479
- He's on morphine.
- No, he's on saline.
676
00:37:31,604 --> 00:37:34,983
I figured you'd put him on saline,
so I switched him back to morphine.
677
00:37:35,108 --> 00:37:38,444
I love you.
When you reach puberty, give me a...
678
00:37:41,948 --> 00:37:44,701
His abdominal pain,
that was on morphine?
679
00:37:44,826 --> 00:37:46,244
Yes.
680
00:37:51,291 --> 00:37:52,667
Is there something
that causes abdominal pain
681
00:37:52,792 --> 00:37:55,295
that doesn't respond to morphine?
682
00:37:57,130 --> 00:38:00,633
I was right.
He is being poisoned.
683
00:38:09,434 --> 00:38:12,103
What's this density
on his hip?
684
00:38:13,187 --> 00:38:17,442
- Just bone.
- Think less boney.
685
00:38:20,612 --> 00:38:22,113
You think
he's got lead poisoning?
686
00:38:22,238 --> 00:38:27,785
Explains the constipation,
the nerves, seizures. Hold him down.
687
00:38:30,455 --> 00:38:35,335
You're not gonna feel a thing,
except excruciating pain.
688
00:38:35,460 --> 00:38:37,629

689
00:38:44,385 --> 00:38:46,346
(NOZICK GASPING)
690
00:38:50,141 --> 00:38:54,896
Your mugger used hollow points,
which exploded and left fragments.
691
00:38:55,021 --> 00:38:58,024
Your doctors missed a couple
hiding behind your hipbone.
692
00:38:58,149 --> 00:39:02,278
It's no biggie, except years later,
they started to dissolve,
693
00:39:02,403 --> 00:39:06,199
and then, biggie,
you started to dissolve.
694
00:39:06,324 --> 00:39:09,661
I'll start him on chelation.
The agoraphobia, could it...
695
00:39:09,786 --> 00:39:13,247
Nope. The lead wouldn't have started
to disintegrate till years after.
696
00:39:13,373 --> 00:39:14,916
But it could have
exacerbated the fear.
697
00:39:15,041 --> 00:39:16,459
I don't need to change.
698
00:39:16,584 --> 00:39:21,589
I know you think that but your life
could be better, you'd have choices.
699
00:39:21,714 --> 00:39:24,342
- He's lying.
- About what?
700
00:39:25,343 --> 00:39:27,762
About everything.
About his life.
701
00:39:28,513 --> 00:39:31,766
He doesn't even think he's happy here.
He's miserable.
702
00:39:31,891 --> 00:39:33,977
- I've got everything I need.
- Yeah?
703
00:39:34,102 --> 00:39:38,272
Well, then why did Taub find
rose petals in your entry hallway?
704
00:39:38,398 --> 00:39:41,859
Struck me as a little weird,
thought it might be medically relevant.
705
00:39:41,985 --> 00:39:44,278
But it actually just told me
that you were pathetic.
706
00:39:44,404 --> 00:39:50,034
The day you crashed in your entryway
was your girlfriend's birthday.
707
00:39:50,785 --> 00:39:56,416
You weren't there for the mail, you were
trying to go lay flowers on her grave.
708
00:39:58,918 --> 00:40:03,006
Yeah, he's got PTSD,
yeah, he's agoraphobic.
709
00:40:03,131 --> 00:40:04,382
But he's also a coward.
710
00:40:04,507 --> 00:40:07,051
If you want to change your life,
do something.
711
00:40:07,176 --> 00:40:09,262
Don't believe
your own rationalizations.
712
00:40:09,387 --> 00:40:12,473
Don't just lock yourself up
and pretend you're happy.
713
00:40:26,279 --> 00:40:28,573
- Hi.
- Hi.
714
00:40:30,491 --> 00:40:32,201
You were right.
715
00:40:32,994 --> 00:40:35,329
About my husband.
It affected me.
716
00:40:37,915 --> 00:40:40,418
It still affects me.
717
00:40:41,753 --> 00:40:43,588
If you're saying
you'll never be able to...
718
00:40:43,713 --> 00:40:46,215
I cleaned out
a drawer for you.
719
00:40:49,761 --> 00:40:51,804
Like, a big one.
720
00:41:01,022 --> 00:41:02,899
