It's a condition
called genetic mosaicism.

The ambiguous genitalia
can be surgically repaired.

Repaired?

told us if the baby's a boy or a girl.

He could have complications
from the surgeries on his penis.

the humiliation,

he did you a favor.

Who's he making
miserable now?
108
00:06:49,514 --> 00:06:50,807
Actually, no one.
109
00:06:50,932 --> 00:06:52,017
He okayed an MRI
110
00:06:52,142 --> 00:06:55,437
just because the parents wanted to look
for a blind uterus.
111
00:06:55,562 --> 00:06:58,064
There was no fighting,
no arguing, he just went along.
112
00:06:58,189 --> 00:06:59,858
It's a valid
medical theory.
113
00:06:59,983 --> 00:07:01,735
He doesn't think it is.
114
00:07:02,277 --> 00:07:05,280
House decided to
humor these parents.
115
00:07:06,656 --> 00:07:08,783
Maybe he had
a great cup of coffee,
116
00:07:08,908 --> 00:07:10,577
or a tremendous
bowel movement.
117
00:07:11,327 --> 00:07:13,663
Bottom line is,
your boss is in a good mood.
118

a narrow spot?

just happens.

Sure.

- Jugular's distended.
- Pericardial effusion.

(GRUNTING)

00:09:00,687 --> 00:09:02,856
We drained the fluid
from his pericardial space.

His heart rate
is back to normal.

You're okay with this?
157
00:09:13,283 --> 00:09:14,284
With what?
158
00:09:14,409 --> 00:09:18,204
That we're considering a diagnosis
unrelated to this kid being a she-male.
159
00:09:18,621 --> 00:09:20,874
Assuming a coincidence
like that would usually torture you,
160
00:09:20,999 --> 00:09:22,250
but you're
completely unfazed.
161
00:09:22,584 --> 00:09:26,671
Completely unfazed? You think
I'm totally lacking in any fazing?
162
00:09:27,297 --> 00:09:31,467
The idea that I'm anything less than
half-fazed, I actually find offensive.
163
00:09:31,593 --> 00:09:32,677
It greatly fazes me.
164
00:09:32,802 --> 00:09:34,137
He started testosterone...
165
00:09:34,262 --> 00:09:35,471
Vitamins.
166
00:09:35,597 --> 00:09:37,974
...a few months ago.
That can cause autoimmune diseases
167
00:09:38,099 --> 00:09:39,642
like polyarteritis and SLE,
168
00:09:39,767 --> 00:09:45,148
which can cause pericardial effusion
and pelvic pain. So, it is related.
169
00:09:46,649 --> 00:09:48,443
Now I'm unfazed.
170
00:09:48,568 --> 00:09:51,196
Start him on corticosteroids
for the autoimmune,

the vitamins.

You slept with House.

He asked permission
before taking my bagel,
174
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,670
took the case
without a fight,
175
00:10:07,795 --> 00:10:10,215
honored the parents'
request for an MRI.
176
00:10:10,340 --> 00:10:12,926
Yes, those were my terms
for sleeping with him.
177
00:10:13,051 --> 00:10:14,469
He's in a good mood.
178
00:10:14,594 --> 00:10:17,055
Sex with me
would explain that,
179
00:10:17,180 --> 00:10:21,809
but it doesn't explain why I'm not
curled up in a ball, weeping in shame.
180
00:10:21,935 --> 00:10:23,728
I did not have
sex with House.
181
00:10:23,853 --> 00:10:25,563
If you two aren't keeping
something from me,
182
00:10:25,688 --> 00:10:29,317
that means he's keeping
something from both of us.
183
00:10:29,442 --> 00:10:31,319
- That can't be good.
- Or he's just in a good mood.
184
00:10:31,444 --> 00:10:33,071
This is not a crisis.
185
00:10:33,196 --> 00:10:36,532
Maybe you can get back
some of that money he owes you.
186
00:10:38,576 --> 00:10:39,827
Hmm.
187
00:10:41,788 --> 00:10:43,289
(SIGHS)
188
00:10:43,748 --> 00:10:45,583
Testosterone blocker?
189
00:10:45,708 --> 00:10:50,380
Does that mean if Jackson has SLE,
or whatever that other thing was,
190
00:10:50,505 --> 00:10:52,840
that he'd have to go
off the hormones?
191
00:10:52,966 --> 00:10:54,342
Probably.
192
00:10:54,467 --> 00:10:56,511
Then Jackson
will stop developing,
193
00:10:56,636 --> 00:10:58,596
he'll never go
through puberty.
194
00:10:58,721 --> 00:11:00,723
Maybe this isn't
what's wrong with him,
195
00:11:00,848 --> 00:11:02,308
maybe the testosterone
didn't cause it.
196
00:11:02,517 --> 00:11:05,353
Yeah. But if it is,
then he'll never be a man.
197
00:11:05,979 --> 00:11:07,355
(CHUCKLES)
198
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,440
Did we make
the wrong choice?
199
00:11:16,531 --> 00:11:20,702
You'll need to tell him the testosterone
blocker is something else.
200
00:11:22,287 --> 00:11:25,832
Or maybe this is a good opportunity
to tell him the truth.
201
00:11:25,957 --> 00:11:29,460
It might make it simpler
for all of you.
202
00:11:30,086 --> 00:11:32,422
You want us to tell
a sick adolescent boy
203
00:11:32,547 --> 00:11:36,259
that he's really not an adolescent boy?
204
00:11:36,384 --> 00:11:38,720
That doesn't seem
simpler to me.
205
00:11:41,097 --> 00:11:43,266
No. Just
206
00:11:45,560 --> 00:11:47,562
give him the meds.
207
00:11:49,731 --> 00:11:54,902
So, you have
pain in one arm and both your legs.
208
00:11:55,528 --> 00:11:56,821
Does it hurt right now?
209
00:11:56,946 --> 00:11:57,989
No.
210
00:11:58,364 --> 00:12:01,576
It's when I, like,
put pressure on them.
211
00:12:02,035 --> 00:12:05,371
See, it hurts
when I do this.
212
00:12:05,997 --> 00:12:07,373
0w!
213
00:12:08,124 --> 00:12:09,334
And this.
214
00:12:10,668 --> 00:12:11,753
0w!
215
00:12:13,171 --> 00:12:14,505
And this.
216
00:12:16,132 --> 00:12:17,342
0w!
217
00:12:19,469 --> 00:12:20,553
What about this?
218
00:12:20,678 --> 00:12:22,472
(SCREAMING) Ow!
219
00:12:27,143 --> 00:12:29,854
Did you give House the moron
with the broken finger?
220
00:12:29,979 --> 00:12:31,606
They've been in Room 2
about 10 minutes.
221
00:12:31,731 --> 00:12:36,361
The patient should've been screaming
for another doctor seven minutes ago.
222
00:12:40,365 --> 00:12:41,991
Thanks, bro.
223
00:12:54,087 --> 00:12:57,131
If I have this IV,
why do I need a shot, too?
224
00:12:58,841 --> 00:13:01,844
Just some extra medicine,
just to be safe.
225
00:13:03,638 --> 00:13:05,807
I hear you're quite
the basketball player.
226
00:13:05,932 --> 00:13:07,892
- What position?
- Point guard.
227
00:13:08,017 --> 00:13:11,104
Small forward.
How's your crossover dribble?
228
00:13:11,229 --> 00:13:14,315
It's okay. I'm not really
that into basketball.
229
00:13:14,690 --> 00:13:17,193
Gonna feel
a little pinch, okay?
230
00:13:18,986 --> 00:13:22,407
So, if you're not that into it,
why'd you join the team?
231
00:13:25,493 --> 00:13:27,120
My mom kind of
made me do it.
232
00:13:27,245 --> 00:13:28,871
My parents
were the same way,
233
00:13:28,996 --> 00:13:31,165
always pushing me
to try new things.
234
00:13:31,290 --> 00:13:34,502
It was more like
what she didn't want me to try.
235
00:13:35,378 --> 00:13:38,548
I wanted to take dance,
but she flipped out,
236
00:13:38,673 --> 00:13:41,592
and made me choose
between basketball and hockey.
237
00:13:42,635 --> 00:13:43,928
What does your dad say?
238
00:13:44,053 --> 00:13:47,723
He seemed okay with it,
then he just caved in to my mom.
239
00:13:51,185 --> 00:13:53,271
Your palm is red.
240
00:13:53,396 --> 00:13:55,106
What does that mean?
241
00:13:57,483 --> 00:14:00,570
That we still don't know
what's wrong with you.
242
00:14:04,782 --> 00:14:07,660
You were right,
he is in a good mood.
243
00:14:15,793 --> 00:14:17,879
Bummer it didn't work out
with you and Thirteen.
244
00:14:18,337 --> 00:14:19,338
It happens.
245
00:14:19,464 --> 00:14:21,048
You guys seemed
happy together.
246
00:14:21,174 --> 00:14:24,302
It's probably for the best, you know,
the bisexual thing and all.
247
00:14:24,427 --> 00:14:25,261
That was never an issue.
248
00:14:25,386 --> 00:14:27,889
No, it never is.
Until it is.
249
00:14:28,014 --> 00:14:30,683
This is Thirteen.
Before you guys got together,
250
00:14:30,808 --> 00:14:33,352
she was hooking up
with a different girl every night.
251
00:14:33,728 --> 00:14:37,440
Long term, you really think
you could compete with that?
252
00:14:39,442 --> 00:14:41,861
House, wake up.
We have to talk.
253
00:14:42,653 --> 00:14:45,531
Stop pretending
to be asleep, we're not leaving.
254
00:14:45,656 --> 00:14:46,949
House.
255
00:14:49,243 --> 00:14:50,870
What's going on?
256
00:14:51,621 --> 00:14:52,955
WILSON: House?
257
00:14:55,625 --> 00:14:57,293
- He's not breathing.
- Can you get a pulse?
258
00:14:57,418 --> 00:14:58,628
- Barely.
- Call a code.
259
00:14:58,753 --> 00:15:00,421
WILSON: Get an Ambu bag
from the nurse's station.
260
00:15:00,546 --> 00:15:02,673
FOREMAN: Heart's still working,
means synapses are still firing.
261
00:15:02,798 --> 00:15:05,092
We just need to get
a message through to him.
262
00:15:05,301 --> 00:15:06,511
(SCREAMS)
263
00:15:06,802 --> 00:15:08,179
(GASPING)
264
00:15:13,392 --> 00:15:15,603
You stopped breathing.
265
00:15:15,728 --> 00:15:17,313
What the hell is going on?
266
00:15:25,238 --> 00:15:28,032
I think my penis
stopped breathing. Do you know CPR?
267
00:15:28,157 --> 00:15:29,575
Looks like
your brain is okay.
268
00:15:29,700 --> 00:15:31,786
Pupils are equal,
round and reactive.
269
00:15:31,911 --> 00:15:36,249
I'm fine, other than the fact
that my nurple is now purple.
270
00:15:36,624 --> 00:15:38,000
No wonder you
broke up with him.
271
00:15:38,125 --> 00:15:40,419
I'm surprised yours
are still attached.
272
00:15:40,545 --> 00:15:43,631
By the way,
I could see that from here.
273
00:15:43,756 --> 00:15:45,550
I assume those are our
patient's lab results.
274
00:15:45,675 --> 00:15:47,468
The patient can wait.
You could have died.
275
00:15:47,593 --> 00:15:50,930
The only reason you'd ignore a
near-death experience is you don't care,
276
00:15:51,055 --> 00:15:52,807
or you already know
why it happened.
277
00:15:52,932 --> 00:15:55,643
It's called Vicodin.
I took too many.
278
00:15:55,768 --> 00:15:58,646
Can I please get
some information about our patient?
279
00:15:58,771 --> 00:16:01,941
The patient's palms are red. Lab test
confirmed liver and kidney dysfunction.
280
00:16:02,066 --> 00:16:03,776
I don't remember you
taking any Vicodin today.
281
00:16:03,901 --> 00:16:05,987
I don't remember
hiring my mother.
282
00:16:06,112 --> 00:16:07,613
And what causes
the enzymes in
283
00:16:07,738 --> 00:16:10,575
little Boy George's existing
heart problem and pelvic pain?
284
00:16:10,700 --> 00:16:13,327
You didn't take any yesterday
at breakfast, either.
285
00:16:13,452 --> 00:16:15,204
I don't remember
having breakfast with my mother.
286
00:16:15,329 --> 00:16:17,456
Amyloidosis with
systemic involvement.
287
00:16:17,582 --> 00:16:19,792
Protein levels are normal.
This kid's depressed.
288
00:16:19,917 --> 00:16:21,836
If he's self-medicating
with drugs and alcohol,
289
00:16:21,961 --> 00:16:23,212
that'd explain
his symptoms.
290
00:16:23,337 --> 00:16:24,922
Search the school.
Search the home.
291
00:16:25,047 --> 00:16:26,674
Seriously? Or are you
just deflecting?
292
00:16:26,799 --> 00:16:28,217
Both.
293
00:16:31,929 --> 00:16:33,639
- Where are you going?
- Nowhere.
294
00:16:33,764 --> 00:16:37,184
I'm staying right here,
so we can properly discuss this.
295
00:16:40,438 --> 00:16:42,732
- He's on heroin.
- How can you...
296
00:16:42,857 --> 00:16:45,610
Number one, he's happy,
which means he's high.
297
00:16:45,735 --> 00:16:49,405
Number two, when he moved his bad leg,
he didn't use his hands to support it.
298
00:16:49,530 --> 00:16:52,700
Whatever he's taking,
it's stronger than Vicodin.
299
00:16:53,367 --> 00:16:55,119
What are we gonna do?
300
00:16:58,539 --> 00:17:00,833
You really think House
took too many Vicodin?
301
00:17:00,958 --> 00:17:05,004
Guy pops them like candy. I'm surprised
it hasn't happened before.
302
00:17:05,671 --> 00:17:08,341
Do you miss
sleeping with women?
303
00:17:08,466 --> 00:17:10,843
- Excuse me?
- Simple question.
304
00:17:11,469 --> 00:17:14,013
Yes. It's a simple answer.
305
00:17:15,556 --> 00:17:17,683
I'll check under the bed.
306
00:17:20,519 --> 00:17:23,105
I also miss
sleeping with other men,
307
00:17:23,439 --> 00:17:26,025
and I'm sure you miss sleeping
with other women.
308
00:17:26,150 --> 00:17:29,320
Monogamy is like saying
you're never going to have
309
00:17:29,445 --> 00:17:32,323
any other ice cream flavor
besides Rocky Road.
310
00:17:32,448 --> 00:17:35,951
So, you're saying if you don't have
pink bubblegum for a while,
311
00:17:36,077 --> 00:17:38,371
that one day you're
gonna chase down the ice cream truck?
312
00:17:38,496 --> 00:17:41,332
No, Rocky Road is great.
313
00:17:42,208 --> 00:17:46,420
It's a very delicious
and complicated flavor.
314
00:17:47,004 --> 00:17:48,839
I also know that if
I have other flavors,
315
00:17:48,964 --> 00:17:53,010
then Rocky Road is gonna be left in the
freezer where anyone can just dip in.
316
00:17:53,135 --> 00:17:55,304
Can we please
drop the metaphor?
317
00:17:56,847 --> 00:17:58,933
Why is this
coming up now?
318
00:17:59,809 --> 00:18:01,852
Kutner said the silver lining
of our break-up
319
00:18:01,977 --> 00:18:04,522
was I wouldn't
be dumped for a girl.
320
00:18:05,314 --> 00:18:06,399
There's nothing
in here, either.
321
00:18:06,524 --> 00:18:08,567
Seems like you're wrong
about this kid having drug or alcohol...
322
00:18:08,693 --> 00:18:10,653
When did he bring that up?
323
00:18:10,778 --> 00:18:12,238
Earlier today,
right before...
324
00:18:12,363 --> 00:18:14,740
This morning,
Taub called you a robot.
325
00:18:14,865 --> 00:18:15,950
Hmm.
326
00:18:16,701 --> 00:18:18,285
Either it's
a big coincidence
327
00:18:18,411 --> 00:18:22,164
or they're jerking us
around, they know.
328
00:18:22,373 --> 00:18:25,084
And if they know,
House knows.
329
00:18:26,293 --> 00:18:27,920
This is bad.
330
00:18:28,045 --> 00:18:30,297
No, this is good.
331
00:18:31,966 --> 00:18:34,802
House only has two ways to handle
us still going out.
332
00:18:35,010 --> 00:18:36,846
He jerks us around
or he fires us.
333
00:18:36,971 --> 00:18:40,224
He chose option A.
This is good.
334
00:18:45,896 --> 00:18:47,481
But this is bad.
335
00:18:49,316 --> 00:18:54,864
"I stand alone, my soul and me,
beneath the mask that others see"
336
00:18:58,075 --> 00:18:59,577
His chest is still rising.
337
00:18:59,702 --> 00:19:03,205
He's just screwing with me
'cause Cuddy made me baby-sit.
338
00:19:03,581 --> 00:19:06,375
"A pain that tears and bites
and will not bend."
339
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:08,753
"Only when I sleep
will it end."
340
00:19:08,878 --> 00:19:12,757
Downer.
And medically irrelevant.
341
00:19:15,426 --> 00:19:17,178
You sure
his chest is moving?
342
00:19:17,303 --> 00:19:18,304
House.
343
00:19:18,429 --> 00:19:21,766
If he's faking, you think he's going to
come clean because you said his name?
344
00:19:21,891 --> 00:19:26,061
Back off. Only Thirteen
gets to grab my nipples this time.
345
00:19:26,187 --> 00:19:27,688
You know,
recreating the moment
346
00:19:27,813 --> 00:19:31,776
when you made us crap our pants
isn't actually all that funny.
347
00:19:31,901 --> 00:19:34,904
That is sweet that you're
worried about House.
348
00:19:36,947 --> 00:19:39,158
Unless the next
stanza reads,
349
00:19:39,283 --> 00:19:44,538
"Hoping to fry my brain to death
I smoked some primo crystal meth,"
350
00:19:44,663 --> 00:19:45,498
I'm not interested.
351
00:19:45,623 --> 00:19:47,541
You can't deny that
this kid may be suicidal.
352
00:19:47,666 --> 00:19:50,252
We're not here to make him happy,
we're here to diagnose him.
353
00:19:50,377 --> 00:19:51,629
It's an infection.
354
00:19:51,754 --> 00:19:55,341
Swab of the kid's water bottle turned up
toxoplasmosis.
355
00:19:55,466 --> 00:19:57,593
I'll start him
on pyrimethamine.
356
00:20:06,727 --> 00:20:09,188
I had no idea
he felt this way.
357
00:20:10,147 --> 00:20:12,483
Is there a therapist here
that you can recommend?
358
00:20:12,608 --> 00:20:15,236
It might help more
if you talked to him.
359
00:20:16,445 --> 00:20:17,863
He's not ready.
360
00:20:17,988 --> 00:20:20,658
If telling him the truth
would help him stop feeling like this.
361
00:20:20,783 --> 00:20:23,160
If I knew that it'd
make him less confused,
362
00:20:23,285 --> 00:20:24,703
I'd tell him right now.
363
00:20:24,829 --> 00:20:28,207
But if she's wrong,
we'd only make things worse.
364
00:20:29,625 --> 00:20:31,961
He obviously senses
he's different.
365
00:20:32,503 --> 00:20:34,088
He's looking for answers.
366
00:20:34,213 --> 00:20:36,757
Every teenager
feels different.
367
00:20:37,883 --> 00:20:41,804
He's sick. This isn't the time
to spring this on him.
368
00:20:45,474 --> 00:20:46,642
Okay-
369
00:20:48,602 --> 00:20:50,437
When you give Jackson
the antibiotics,
370
00:20:50,563 --> 00:20:53,440
will you please re-start
the testosterone?
371
00:20:53,566 --> 00:20:54,817
Sure.
372
00:20:58,654 --> 00:21:03,158
I get House wanting to jerk me
and Thirteen around, but you guys?
373
00:21:03,284 --> 00:21:05,619
Told you they were
still together.
374
00:21:05,744 --> 00:21:06,620
How'd he know?
375
00:21:06,745 --> 00:21:09,415
He noticed you smell like
Thirteen's soap every morning.
376
00:21:09,540 --> 00:21:12,334
- You figured it out?
- Yes, I'm a little slow.
377
00:21:12,459 --> 00:21:15,880
Maybe someone should let me know
when I should be insulted.
378
00:21:16,005 --> 00:21:17,464
Then House doesn't know.
379
00:21:17,590 --> 00:21:19,258
Probably does now
that you felt her up
380
00:21:19,383 --> 00:21:21,594
during that
last differential.
381
00:21:24,138 --> 00:21:26,348
You noticed this,
but House didn't?
382
00:21:26,473 --> 00:21:29,518
Yes, I get it.
He's generally smarter than me.
383
00:21:29,643 --> 00:21:30,477
Can we please move on?
384
00:21:30,603 --> 00:21:31,770
He's not generally
smarter than you,
385
00:21:31,896 --> 00:21:34,732

smarter than you.

House is on heroin.
390

Well, that's certainly
an interesting notion.
391
00:21:50,873 --> 00:21:53,334
It's why his lungs stopped,
it's why he okayed the MRI,
392
00:21:53,459 --> 00:21:56,712
it's why he missed things
he wouldn't ordinarily miss.
393
00:21:58,005 --> 00:22:00,549
We'll run some tests,
and I'll let you know.
394

FOREMAN: He's there, isn't he?
395
00:22:02,134 --> 00:22:04,511
Well, that would certainly explain
the inappropriate responses.

I got to go. Okay-
397
00:22:08,307 --> 00:22:09,725
Sorry. Consult.
398
00:22:11,602 --> 00:22:12,728
When did you order these?
399
00:22:12,853 --> 00:22:14,355
When you were
in the bathroom.
400
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,066
I thought a celebration
was in order.
401

You off bourbon?
Can I get you something else?
403
00:22:29,870 --> 00:22:31,997
I came here
expecting a burger.
404
00:22:32,122 --> 00:22:34,959
Figured I'd have to endure
a little lecture on moderation.
405
00:22:35,084 --> 00:22:36,502
You never listen,
so why...
406
00:22:36,627 --> 00:22:38,587
But instead,
I get a drink.
407
00:22:39,421 --> 00:22:41,715
A nice little serving
of respiratory depressant
408
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:43,884
on the day that my lungs
stopped working.
409
00:22:44,009 --> 00:22:45,552
You seem fine now.
410
00:22:45,678 --> 00:22:48,389
You don't believe
that I OD'd on Vicodin.
411
00:22:48,514 --> 00:22:50,140
You figure I'm
on something stronger.
412
00:22:50,265 --> 00:22:51,934
And because you can never,
ever assume anything
413
00:22:52,059 --> 00:22:54,228

as far as I'm concerned...
414
00:22:54,353 --> 00:22:55,896
Funny how
I'm usually right.

...you think
that I'm on heroin.
416

This is your version of a tox screen.
Because if I am on heroin,

I can't drink that without risking
another bout of not breathing.

with your fingers down your throat.

00:29:33,919 --> 00:29:37,631
You don't have to
hide behind a mask.
518
00:29:42,177 --> 00:29:44,930
I found the poem
you wrote in your room.
519
00:29:48,016 --> 00:29:50,811
No matter
how bad things get,
520
00:29:50,936 --> 00:29:54,147
killing yourself
is never the answer.
521
00:30:00,529 --> 00:30:02,948
This was an
English assignment.
522
00:30:04,866 --> 00:30:06,785
We were supposed
to write a poem
523
00:30:06,910 --> 00:30:08,954
in the style
of Sylvia Plath.
524
00:30:13,583 --> 00:30:15,544
You don't feel this way?
525
00:30:17,671 --> 00:30:19,256
I'm sad sometimes.
526
00:30:21,675 --> 00:30:23,593
But I don't want to die.
527
00:30:25,053 --> 00:30:26,763
At least, I didn't.
528
00:30:35,939 --> 00:30:39,359
Are these antibiotics
supposed to make you nauseous?
529
00:30:39,484 --> 00:30:41,194
Yeah, they can.
530
00:30:46,032 --> 00:30:46,282
(BEEPING)
531
00:30:46,283 --> 00:30:48,118
(BEEPING)
532
00:31:24,321 --> 00:31:26,364
- We're on our own.
- Is he okay?
533
00:31:26,490 --> 00:31:27,657
He's fine.
He's just not here.
534
00:31:27,782 --> 00:31:29,409
Did he quit?
Did she suspend him?
535
00:31:29,534 --> 00:31:31,328
She didn't say.
Just told me I was in charge
536
00:31:31,453 --> 00:31:32,954
until further notice.
537
00:31:33,079 --> 00:31:34,539
So, if we add
bloody vomit
538
00:31:34,664 --> 00:31:36,124
to our patient's list
of symptoms...
539
00:31:36,249 --> 00:31:38,960
Surgeon reports the bleeding
was caused by a gastric fistula
540
00:31:39,085 --> 00:31:40,420
caused by
necrotizing pancreatitis.
541
00:31:40,545 --> 00:31:41,838
She must have
told you something.
542
00:31:41,963 --> 00:31:43,548
Nothing that would
help us with this patient.
543
00:31:43,673 --> 00:31:45,550
Heart, liver,
kidneys and pancreas.
544
00:31:45,675 --> 00:31:48,553
Obviously, whatever this kid's got,
it's something systemic.

(SIGHS)

Zollinger-Ellison.
547
00:31:50,972 --> 00:31:52,682
Or systemic scleroderma.
548
00:31:54,559 --> 00:31:55,727
Zollinger-Ellison
fits better.
549
00:31:56,144 --> 00:31:56,978
Why?
550
00:31:57,103 --> 00:31:58,230
Can we at least
call House?
551
00:31:58,355 --> 00:32:00,565
We can, I have,
he's not answering.
552
00:32:00,690 --> 00:32:02,567
Put the patient on
proton pump inhibitors.
553
00:32:02,692 --> 00:32:04,110
If he gets better,
it's Zollinger-Ellison.
554
00:32:04,236 --> 00:32:06,613
If not, it's scleroderma.
555
00:32:11,618 --> 00:32:14,496
Zollinger-Ellison
doesn't fit better.
556
00:32:15,372 --> 00:32:16,957
You don't want it
to be scleroderma
557
00:32:17,082 --> 00:32:18,750
because that means
he's going to die.
558
00:32:18,875 --> 00:32:19,960
Patients die all the time.
559
00:32:20,085 --> 00:32:23,088
Not the ones whose
families you've ruined.
560
00:32:23,213 --> 00:32:25,549
I don't think that, you do.
561
00:32:26,466 --> 00:32:27,801
It's not your fault.
562
00:32:27,926 --> 00:32:29,970
He was no more confused
than any other teenager,
563
00:32:30,095 --> 00:32:32,931
then I started a fire
and threw gas on it.
564
00:32:33,056 --> 00:32:34,349
You were trying to help.

567
00:32:41,982 --> 00:32:44,234
Hi, is House here?
568
00:32:44,359 --> 00:32:45,694
He's getting dressed.
569
00:32:45,819 --> 00:32:48,363
I'll be back
around 10:00 tonight.
570
00:32:49,364 --> 00:32:50,574
Go on in.
571
00:32:50,699 --> 00:32:51,783
Okay-
572
00:32:56,705 --> 00:32:57,539
Who is she?
573
00:32:57,664 --> 00:32:59,457
HOUSE: I hired her
to watch me sleep,
574
00:32:59,583 --> 00:33:00,834
make sure I don't
stop breathing.
575
00:33:00,959 --> 00:33:03,795
Home nurses
usually wear scrubs.
576
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:05,463
She's not a nurse.
577
00:33:06,673 --> 00:33:10,427
You hired a hooker to watch you sleep?
That just can't...
578
00:33:13,138 --> 00:33:15,307
Surprisingly,
hookers are cheaper.
579
00:33:15,432 --> 00:33:18,643
They don't sue for sexual harassment.
Which one?
580
00:33:19,644 --> 00:33:21,104
You shaved!
581
00:33:22,314 --> 00:33:24,274
The red one then.
582
00:33:24,399 --> 00:33:26,484
You have two ties?

Meeting at
St. Sebastian's today.
584
00:33:28,653 --> 00:33:30,030
I'm going to try
and talk them into
585
00:33:30,155 --> 00:33:31,906
starting up
a diagnostics department.
586
00:33:32,032 --> 00:33:33,575
That sounds great.
587
00:33:34,534 --> 00:33:38,330
I just came by to check up on you,
see how you were doing.
588
00:33:39,873 --> 00:33:41,291
I'm fine.
589
00:33:43,084 --> 00:33:44,336
I guess you are.
590
00:33:47,088 --> 00:33:49,591
He hasn't responded
to the medication at all?
591
00:33:49,716 --> 00:33:51,384
I'm afraid not.
592
00:33:51,968 --> 00:33:55,305
So, that means
he's got the other thing?
593
00:33:55,430 --> 00:33:59,225
I'm so sorry. We'll start him
on anti-inflammatories.
594
00:33:59,351 --> 00:34:02,646
If we're lucky,
that will slow down the progression.
595
00:34:11,363 --> 00:34:13,406
My son has
a death sentence,
596
00:34:13,531 --> 00:34:16,326
and I can't go in there and be with him
because of you.
597
00:34:16,451 --> 00:34:17,452
I'm sorry.
598
00:34:17,577 --> 00:34:20,372
You find a homework assignment
and decide he's suicidal,
599
00:34:20,497 --> 00:34:22,832
make it your own
personal mission.
600
00:34:22,957 --> 00:34:24,000
I let my feelings...
601
00:34:24,125 --> 00:34:26,419
Oh, don't you
dare apologize.
602
00:34:26,544 --> 00:34:28,129
Like it could absolve you
603
00:34:28,254 --> 00:34:30,674
of what you've done
to me, my family.
604
00:34:30,799 --> 00:34:32,384
He was fine.
605
00:34:32,509 --> 00:34:34,594
CUDDY: I understand
why you're angry.
606
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:36,680
But this isn't where
you belong right now.
607
00:34:36,805 --> 00:34:38,223
He won't let us
in the room.
608
00:34:38,348 --> 00:34:40,934
He's a teenager,
you're his mother.
609
00:34:41,059 --> 00:34:43,311
This is not the time
to start listening to him.
610
00:34:44,437 --> 00:34:45,855
Go be with him.
611
00:34:54,614 --> 00:34:56,074
Thank you.
612
00:34:58,535 --> 00:35:00,620
I didn't do it for you.
613
00:35:06,251 --> 00:35:07,502
We made a mistake.
614
00:35:07,627 --> 00:35:08,586
No, we didn't.
615
00:35:08,712 --> 00:35:10,046
The methadone
is good for him.
616
00:35:10,171 --> 00:35:12,257
The methadone
is gonna kill him.
617
00:35:12,382 --> 00:35:14,592
He shaved.
He was wearing a tie.
618
00:35:14,718 --> 00:35:16,511
He has a meeting
at St. Sebastian.
619
00:35:16,636 --> 00:35:17,971
If he buys
a new pair of shoes,
620
00:35:18,096 --> 00:35:19,514
should we let him
smoke crack?
621
00:35:19,639 --> 00:35:21,474
Cuddy, he's happy-
622
00:35:21,599 --> 00:35:25,019
House doesn't do happy,
pain or no pain.
623
00:35:25,603 --> 00:35:27,147
Okay, maybe.
624
00:35:27,647 --> 00:35:29,941
But he's our friend,
625
00:35:30,066 --> 00:35:35,405
and this is his one chance
to not be miserable.
626
00:35:59,220 --> 00:36:01,389
The heels, very nice.
627
00:36:02,056 --> 00:36:04,893
No reason not to wear them
now that House is gone.

You Okay?
629
00:36:06,269 --> 00:36:08,313
Yeah. Just tired.

00:36:08,438 --> 00:36:09,898

00:36:10,023 --> 00:36:10,899
The patient's scleroderma
632
00:36:11,024 --> 00:36:12,901
is responding to
the anti-inflammatory meds.
633
00:36:13,026 --> 00:36:15,445
His AST level
has dropped a bit.
634
00:36:15,570 --> 00:36:17,906
So, he's dying
slightly less quickly than we thought.
635
00:36:18,031 --> 00:36:20,074
That's great news.
636
00:36:22,285 --> 00:36:23,912
I'm not okay.

(SIGHS)
640
00:36:30,210 --> 00:36:31,920
What's his AST?
641
00:36:32,921 --> 00:36:34,255
185, I think.
642
00:36:34,380 --> 00:36:35,215
That's a pretty fast drop.
643
00:36:35,340 --> 00:36:37,133
Are we sure it's from
the anti-inflammatories?
644
00:36:37,258 --> 00:36:38,218
What else could it be from?
645
00:36:38,343 --> 00:36:39,844
He's been off the antibiotics
for a while.
646
00:36:39,969 --> 00:36:41,012
Proton pump inhibitors
wouldn't...
647
00:36:41,137 --> 00:36:42,180
He's back on testosterone.
648
00:36:42,305 --> 00:36:43,807
Testosterone wouldn't help
his liver function.
649
00:36:43,932 --> 00:36:45,350
But it could improve
his kidney function,
650
00:36:45,475 --> 00:36:47,644
which would also
lower his AST.
651
00:36:47,769 --> 00:36:49,604
But not in kidneys damaged
by scleroderma.
652
00:36:49,729 --> 00:36:52,190
Which means
it's not scleroderma.
653
00:36:57,153 --> 00:36:59,739
I have an interview
in two hours.
654
00:37:00,907 --> 00:37:02,116
Wow.

00:37:03,159 --> 00:37:04,911
Hand over my letter
of recommendation.
656
00:37:05,036 --> 00:37:07,288
Sorry, I haven't done it yet.
657
00:37:08,206 --> 00:37:09,833
You have no right
to sabotage...
658
00:37:09,958 --> 00:37:11,751
I was busy with this.

It's a list of requirements
for your methadone treatment.

Weekly drug tests, supervised doses
administered on a precise schedule,
661
00:37:21,177 --> 00:37:23,721
by me or one of the nurses.
662
00:37:24,264 --> 00:37:25,974
Seems weird,
getting my meds here,
663
00:37:26,099 --> 00:37:27,600
when I'm working
somewhere else.
664
00:37:27,725 --> 00:37:28,893
Yes.

00:37:31,062 --> 00:37:33,314
I'm offering you
your job back.

- I want a raise.
- No.

You Okay?
676
00:38:18,693 --> 00:38:21,195
I have issues
with authority. You?
677
00:38:21,321 --> 00:38:23,031
We thought
you were gone.
678
00:38:23,156 --> 00:38:24,240
Cuddy missed me.
679
00:38:24,365 --> 00:38:26,117
And what happened
to your cane?
680
00:38:26,242 --> 00:38:28,703
She asked to borrow it
for some reason.
681
00:38:28,828 --> 00:38:31,581
Patient dead,
or do I need to do anything?
682
00:38:31,706 --> 00:38:32,832
He's got scleroderma.
683
00:38:32,957 --> 00:38:34,667
It's not scleroderma.
684
00:38:34,792 --> 00:38:39,839
Wow, two days and you've
already got two separate theories.
685
00:38:39,964 --> 00:38:42,216
You're back. Good.
686
00:38:42,342 --> 00:38:45,011
We noticed a drop in AST levels.
It's not from the anti-inflammatory.
687
00:38:45,136 --> 00:38:47,013
It's because his kidneys
got better from the testosterone.
688
00:38:47,138 --> 00:38:49,057
Which rules out scleroderma.
689
00:38:49,599 --> 00:38:51,184
When did you two
come up with this?
690
00:38:51,309 --> 00:38:54,145
We ran into each other
in the lobby.
691
00:38:56,022 --> 00:38:57,523
So, what did we miss?
692
00:38:57,649 --> 00:38:59,817
When I say "we," I mean you,
since I wasn't here.
693
00:38:59,943 --> 00:39:01,819
We've ruled out
Zollinger-Ellison.
694
00:39:01,945 --> 00:39:03,112
That was a dumb idea.
695
00:39:03,237 --> 00:39:05,031
- Why?
- Because it was wrong.
696
00:39:05,156 --> 00:39:10,036
Also Toxoplasmosis, dehydration,
SLE, various intersex disorders.
697
00:39:10,161 --> 00:39:11,287
Oh, crap.
698
00:39:14,374 --> 00:39:16,125
Does this kid like
energy drinks?
699
00:39:16,250 --> 00:39:19,253
I saw some empty bottles
in the team's locker room.
700
00:39:19,379 --> 00:39:21,839
But energy drinks
don't explain...
701
00:39:21,965 --> 00:39:22,966
Nice work.
702
00:39:23,091 --> 00:39:24,801
So, we're okay?
703
00:39:26,135 --> 00:39:27,762
Why wouldn't we be?
704
00:39:28,638 --> 00:39:30,264
Nice heels.
705
00:39:38,314 --> 00:39:39,857
This is all
your parents' fault.
706
00:39:40,274 --> 00:39:41,192
Excuse me?
707
00:39:41,317 --> 00:39:45,154
You chug a lot of energy drinks before,
during and after practice?
708
00:39:45,947 --> 00:39:48,199
Your son came in here
with simple dehydration.
709
00:39:48,324 --> 00:39:50,243
That's why he collapsed
during the game.
710
00:39:50,368 --> 00:39:53,538
The ER treated him for that.
it didn't help the pain.
711
00:39:53,663 --> 00:39:55,415
That's where
the energy drinks came in.
712
00:39:55,540 --> 00:39:56,708
They put a strain
on his kidneys,
713
00:39:56,833 --> 00:39:59,836
so he needed more time to rebound
from the initial dehydration.
714
00:39:59,961 --> 00:40:01,087
Then why isn't he better?
715
00:40:01,212 --> 00:40:03,840
That's where
your idiocy came in.
716
00:40:03,965 --> 00:40:05,842
Before we could give him
another glass of water,
717
00:40:05,967 --> 00:40:08,219
you two insisted I do an MRI.
718
00:40:08,344 --> 00:40:12,640
So, I go down a blind alley,
looking for a blind uterus,
719
00:40:12,765 --> 00:40:14,976
and my team injects him
with contrast material.
720
00:40:15,768 --> 00:40:17,270
If his kidneys
had been healthy,
721
00:40:17,395 --> 00:40:19,689
he would've filtered out the contrast
in a couple of hours.
722
00:40:19,814 --> 00:40:22,275
Since they weren't,
it went around and around,
723
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,028
eventually getting absorbed by his
heart, his liver and his pancreas,
724
00:40:25,153 --> 00:40:27,196
getting in trouble
everywhere it went.
725
00:40:27,822 --> 00:40:30,241
Your son was fine
when he got here.
726
00:40:30,366 --> 00:40:33,161
It was
your freaked-out over-protectiveness
727
00:40:33,286 --> 00:40:34,704
that nearly killed him.
728
00:40:34,829 --> 00:40:36,122
Nearly?
729
00:40:37,081 --> 00:40:41,669
He's young. A few weeks of dialysis,
he should be fine.
730
00:40:43,212 --> 00:40:44,589
(SIGHS)
731
00:40:49,469 --> 00:40:52,764
You gave birth
to a freak of nature,
732
00:40:52,889 --> 00:40:56,267
doesn't mean it's a good idea
to treat him like one.
733
00:41:08,529 --> 00:41:09,781
How are you feeling?
734
00:41:09,906 --> 00:41:11,324
A little bit better.
735
00:41:12,033 --> 00:41:14,744
I saw you talking
to your parents earlier, that's good.
736
00:41:15,036 --> 00:41:17,288
My mom asked
if I wanted to take dance lessons.
737
00:41:17,413 --> 00:41:18,998
That's great.
738
00:41:20,041 --> 00:41:22,627
I'm actually worried
I might miss basketball.
739
00:41:22,752 --> 00:41:24,170
I was starting to get good.
740
00:41:24,462 --> 00:41:26,214
No reason you can't do both.
741
00:41:47,193 --> 00:41:50,696
Starting tomorrow, you'll come
to my office for your fix.
742
00:41:50,822 --> 00:41:53,116
I'm done with
the methadone.
743
00:41:54,158 --> 00:41:55,701
I screwed up.
744
00:41:55,827 --> 00:41:58,204
The kid's parents
wanted that MRI.
745
00:41:58,329 --> 00:42:01,374
I knew he didn't need it.
I did it anyway.
746
00:42:01,499 --> 00:42:02,792
That's what got him sick.
747
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,129
You just solved a case
that no one else could solve.
748
00:42:06,462 --> 00:42:08,339
I created a case.
749
00:42:08,464 --> 00:42:13,678
I played nice because I was in a
good mood because it didn't hurt.
750
00:42:13,803 --> 00:42:16,097
You don't need your pain
to be a good doctor.
751
00:42:16,222 --> 00:42:17,223
I'm not interested in good.
752
00:42:17,348 --> 00:42:19,225
You're afraid to be happy.
753
00:42:19,350 --> 00:42:21,435
Why do you care if I'm happy?
754
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:33,239
You're afraid of change. The one thing
you have is your intellect.
755
00:42:33,364 --> 00:42:36,325
You think if that's compromised,
you have nothing.
756
00:42:41,038 --> 00:42:42,373
Just take it.
757
00:42:43,166 --> 00:42:44,667
No.
758
00:42:45,084 --> 00:42:46,502
Don't do this.
759
00:42:48,087 --> 00:42:49,755
It's already done.
760
00:42:53,843 --> 00:42:56,012
This is the only me you get.
