1
00:00:21,918 --> 00:00:25,047
Okay, therafy me.
2
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,933
- You're late.
- You're fat.
3
00:00:39,686 --> 00:00:40,896
It's unusual.
4
00:00:41,021 --> 00:00:45,525
You know how far the parking lot is.
My leg's been hurting.
5
00:00:45,651 --> 00:00:47,903
Anything been on your mind lately?
Any particular stress?
6
00:00:48,028 --> 00:00:50,530
Nope. Probably just gonna rain.
7
00:00:50,656 --> 00:00:55,243
Hmm. You like the new Monet reproduction
in the waiting room?
8
00:00:55,369 --> 00:00:57,120
The Water Lilies?
9
00:00:57,871 --> 00:01:01,458
I was late. I wasn't focusing
on the decor,
10
00:01:01,583 --> 00:01:04,753
but it sounds appropriately bland
and calming.
11
00:01:04,878 --> 00:01:06,963
Stress can also make you absent-minded.
12
00:01:07,089 --> 00:01:08,965
I'm not stressed.
13
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,011
Beyond the stress induced by you
telling me how stressed I am.
14
00:01:14,262 --> 00:01:15,722
Just an ordinary week.
15
00:01:18,684 --> 00:01:19,851
Okay-
16
00:01:21,812 --> 00:01:23,605
Tell me about it.
17
00:01:26,191 --> 00:01:27,526
(WOMAN CHATTERING ON PA)
18
00:01:27,651 --> 00:01:29,194
HOUSE: I had a patient.
19
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:30,821
CUDDY: House?
20
00:01:31,697 --> 00:01:34,199
Good, I have a case for you.
21
00:01:34,324 --> 00:01:37,369
- Beer?
- Amnesia.
22
00:01:37,494 --> 00:01:39,746
She was found jogging in the street,
disoriented.
23
00:01:39,871 --> 00:01:44,292
She almost got hit by a truck.
The MRI showed no abnormalities.
24
00:01:44,418 --> 00:01:47,754
No ID on her, just her jogging clothes
and her heart rate monitor.
25
00:01:47,879 --> 00:01:50,173
We know absolutely nothing about her.
26
00:01:50,298 --> 00:01:51,925
HOUSE: We know she has money.
27
00:01:52,050 --> 00:01:55,053
Blaze Outriggers, 400 bucks a pair.
28
00:01:55,178 --> 00:01:57,055
People who have money
don't just disappear.
29
00:01:57,180 --> 00:01:59,725
Sooner or later, someone is gonna
show up looking for her.
30
00:01:59,850 --> 00:02:00,976
Can I have something to eat?
31
00:02:01,101 --> 00:02:04,688
She just ate 15 minutes ago.
She keeps forgetting.
32
00:02:04,813 --> 00:02:08,150
You don't eat because you remember
it's time to eat,
33
00:02:08,275 --> 00:02:09,484
you eat because you're hungry.
34
00:02:09,609 --> 00:02:11,737
Her metabolism is in high gear.
35
00:02:11,862 --> 00:02:14,364
She is an extreme long-distance runner
who...
36
00:02:14,489 --> 00:02:16,533
NOLAN: Why were you in the ER?
37
00:02:17,242 --> 00:02:18,452
That's your question?
38
00:02:19,828 --> 00:02:22,789
You're a psychotherapist, you're hearing
about a great amnesia case,
39
00:02:22,914 --> 00:02:24,750
and all you're asking me is geography?
40
00:02:24,875 --> 00:02:26,710
Just curious.
41
00:02:30,964 --> 00:02:32,966
I was avoiding Wilson.
42
00:02:34,468 --> 00:02:37,929
It's not something you couldn't
have seen eight miles away.
43
00:02:38,805 --> 00:02:40,557
Wilson's a processor.
44
00:02:40,682 --> 00:02:44,478
I knew there were some things
that he'd want to process with me.
45
00:02:44,603 --> 00:02:45,812
At length.
46
00:02:45,937 --> 00:02:47,814
Sam's moving in.
47
00:02:48,774 --> 00:02:51,443
If it's before Friday,
your assistant wins the pool.
48
00:02:51,568 --> 00:02:54,863
I was just wondering
what your plans were.
49
00:02:55,989 --> 00:02:57,908
- Tonight?
- In life.
50
00:02:59,826 --> 00:03:02,746
- Sam likes you.
- But she wants me to move out.
51
00:03:03,872 --> 00:03:05,582
No.
52
00:03:05,707 --> 00:03:07,751
I want you to move out.
53
00:03:09,002 --> 00:03:11,379
I didn't know things with Sam
would happen so quickly.
54
00:03:11,505 --> 00:03:14,090
I didn't... I don't want
to make a mistake here.
55
00:03:14,216 --> 00:03:16,968
- I've made a lot of mistakes.
- By moving too quickly.
56
00:03:17,093 --> 00:03:18,595
Given your usual rate of commitment,
57
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,972
I'm surprised
you're not already re-divorced.
58
00:03:22,808 --> 00:03:25,685
- I could help you find a place.
- What's wrong with my old place?
59
00:03:25,811 --> 00:03:30,857
Nothing. I just thought you might want
to find somewhere new.
60
00:03:30,982 --> 00:03:32,359
Somewhere...
61
00:03:33,235 --> 00:03:35,612
Where I didn't abuse drugs
and hallucinate?
62
00:03:37,030 --> 00:03:38,240
Yes.
63
00:03:38,990 --> 00:03:39,991
I'm fine.
64
00:03:40,116 --> 00:03:41,117
NOLAN: You're fine?
65
00:03:42,786 --> 00:03:45,455
Your best friend is tossing you out,
and you're fine?
66
00:03:46,373 --> 00:03:47,999
Why wouldn't I be?
67
00:04:25,662 --> 00:04:30,417
You're not feeling a little betrayed
and angry?
68
00:04:31,668 --> 00:04:35,171
Wilson bought a two-bedroom condo
so that you could move in with him.
69
00:04:35,297 --> 00:04:39,968
It wasn't that long ago.
You don't feel a little jerked around?
70
00:04:41,761 --> 00:04:44,347
He couldn't foresee Sam coming back
into his life.
71
00:04:44,472 --> 00:04:49,060
That's a very rational defense
of your friend, and I'm not buying it.
72
00:04:49,185 --> 00:04:50,353
Based on what?
73
00:04:50,478 --> 00:04:52,814
Based on the fact that you were late,
74
00:04:52,939 --> 00:04:55,108
and you didn't notice the pictures
in the outer office.
75
00:04:55,233 --> 00:04:57,319
- Those aren't symptoms.
- They are to me.
76
00:04:57,444 --> 00:05:00,572
And here's another one.
You took the case.
77
00:05:00,697 --> 00:05:03,199
No negotiating. No bargaining.
78
00:05:03,325 --> 00:05:05,660
No clinic hours changed hands.
79
00:05:05,785 --> 00:05:07,579
Were you looking
for something to distract you
80
00:05:07,704 --> 00:05:09,998
from the fact that your best friend
just threw you out?
81
00:05:10,123 --> 00:05:11,124
The case was interesting.
82
00:05:11,249 --> 00:05:14,252
It's not organic, it's not mysterious.
83
00:05:14,377 --> 00:05:17,589
Most likely some psychologically
traumatic event occurred
84
00:05:17,714 --> 00:05:20,884
that made the patient's brain choose
to forget everything.
85
00:05:21,009 --> 00:05:22,135
Or not.
86
00:05:23,011 --> 00:05:24,387
HOUSE: Here.
87
00:05:24,512 --> 00:05:27,933
Loss of differentiation
between gray and white matter.
88
00:05:28,058 --> 00:05:29,100
TAUB: It's subtle.
89
00:05:29,225 --> 00:05:30,894
But it's in the area
that controls memory.
90
00:05:31,019 --> 00:05:32,896
Not likely it's a coincidence.
91
00:05:33,021 --> 00:05:35,440
Bacterial infection?
92
00:05:35,565 --> 00:05:37,275
Do I need to know this?
93
00:05:38,151 --> 00:05:39,945
Fine, I'll give you the CliffNotes
version.
94
00:05:40,070 --> 00:05:43,698
Chase, MS. Taub, physical trauma.
I could tell you why we ruled them out.
95
00:05:43,823 --> 00:05:45,033
Or not.
96
00:05:46,785 --> 00:05:49,496
It's probably a toxin, and we need
to find it before it kills her.
97
00:05:49,621 --> 00:05:51,998
- We should search her house.
- Good luck with that.
98
00:05:52,791 --> 00:05:55,669
Her heart rate monitor has
a serial number.
99
00:05:55,794 --> 00:05:58,254
The distributor can match the number
to the store that sold it.
100
00:05:58,380 --> 00:05:59,506
She's a serious athlete.
101
00:05:59,631 --> 00:06:01,758
She might have been there
often enough to be remembered.
102
00:06:01,883 --> 00:06:04,594
- Brilliant.
- NOLAN: Did he really say that?
103
00:06:04,719 --> 00:06:07,013
- Subtextually.
- Long shot.
104
00:06:07,138 --> 00:06:09,432
Even if the store clerk
does know who she is,
105
00:06:09,557 --> 00:06:11,351
the store's probably close
to where she lives.
106
00:06:11,476 --> 00:06:13,395
Seeing those surroundings
might spark a memory.
107
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,649
- You want us to take her there?
- No. I'll take her.
108
00:06:18,692 --> 00:06:19,943
Really?
109
00:06:20,735 --> 00:06:23,530
It's unusual for you to spend time
with a patient, isn't it?
110
00:06:23,655 --> 00:06:26,491
Patients are boring, as people.
111
00:06:26,616 --> 00:06:30,870
This one, I'm sure, was no exception,
but her situation was interesting.
112
00:06:30,996 --> 00:06:33,373
Besides, I was still avoiding Wilson,
113
00:06:33,498 --> 00:06:35,792
and no better way to avoid
than leaving the hospital.
114
00:06:35,917 --> 00:06:39,462
Maybe. Or were you avoiding going home?
115
00:06:39,587 --> 00:06:42,465
There's a reason they tell addicts
to stay away from old geography.
116
00:06:42,590 --> 00:06:44,134
I wasn't avoiding going home.
117
00:06:44,259 --> 00:06:48,096
I'd already gone home
before I came in to work that day.
118
00:06:48,221 --> 00:06:50,098
I went straight there from Wilson's.
119
00:06:53,518 --> 00:06:54,644
(THUD)
120
00:06:54,769 --> 00:06:57,981
ALVIE: Hey! Take it easy. You're gonna
kill me. God, why don't people knock?
121
00:06:58,106 --> 00:07:00,567
House, it's you! Where you been?
Hold up a second.
122
00:07:01,901 --> 00:07:06,072
NOLAN: Alvie? Juan Alvarez?
You let him stay at your place?
123
00:07:06,948 --> 00:07:08,324
Not exactly.
124
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:11,536
(THUD)
125
00:07:12,954 --> 00:07:15,081
I was beginning to wonder
if you were ever gonna show up.
126
00:07:15,206 --> 00:07:17,167
(SPEAKING SPANISH)
127
00:07:18,877 --> 00:07:19,961
Why are you here?
128
00:07:20,086 --> 00:07:22,464
When I left Mayfield,
I went back to the old neighborhood.
129
00:07:22,589 --> 00:07:24,924
You know, you shouldn't leave
the bathroom window unlocked.
130
00:07:25,050 --> 00:07:27,677
Yeah, thanks for the safety lesson.
Why are you here?
131
00:07:27,802 --> 00:07:29,220
When I went back to the neighborhood,
132
00:07:29,345 --> 00:07:31,014
I found out Immigration was
looking for me.
133
00:07:31,139 --> 00:07:33,641
So I decided to visit
my old buddy House.
134
00:07:33,767 --> 00:07:36,436
And turn his apartment
into a giant prison jumpsuit.
135
00:07:36,561 --> 00:07:39,481
Juan Alvarez is no freeloader.
I do my part, earn my keep.
136
00:07:39,606 --> 00:07:41,983
The first week, I made you dinner,
but you never showed up.
137
00:07:42,108 --> 00:07:43,777
The second week, I organized your stuff.
138
00:07:45,028 --> 00:07:46,946
- My stuff?
- But still, you never showed up.
139
00:07:47,072 --> 00:07:49,866
So this week, since I'm a real good
painter, I decided to feng shui...
140
00:07:49,991 --> 00:07:51,993
Coffee table. Where'd you put it?
141
00:07:54,412 --> 00:07:55,872
In the bedroom?
142
00:07:55,997 --> 00:07:58,500
The paint's not cheap, House.
It's a custom color.
143
00:07:58,625 --> 00:08:01,669
It's a mix of titanium yellow and ochre.
Ochre. I don't even like that stuff.
144
00:08:01,795 --> 00:08:04,506
It's like a fruit, it's got hair on it,
but they say it's a vegetable...
145
00:08:04,631 --> 00:08:08,176
You sold my table to pay for paint
that I don't want?
146
00:08:10,095 --> 00:08:13,014
I had to sell some other things, too.
147
00:08:17,102 --> 00:08:18,103
Get out.
148
00:08:18,228 --> 00:08:19,938
No, papa, just give the color a chance.
149
00:08:20,063 --> 00:08:23,441
Look, I'm going to work now.
And when I come back,
150
00:08:23,566 --> 00:08:26,152
the walls will be a less exciting color,
and you will be gone.
151
00:08:28,613 --> 00:08:33,993
So Wilson threw you out, and you threw
Alvie out. Just another week?
152
00:08:34,119 --> 00:08:35,995
HOUSE: But unlike me,
Alvie didn't leave.
153
00:08:36,121 --> 00:08:37,831
I took my motorcycle to work that day.
154
00:08:37,956 --> 00:08:42,585
When I went home to get my car,
he was painting the ceiling magenta.
155
00:08:43,336 --> 00:08:46,089
So I brought him with me
to protect the apartment.
156
00:08:46,214 --> 00:08:49,134
- Why?
- To protect the apartment.
157
00:08:50,051 --> 00:08:51,636
Whoa, déjé vu.
158
00:08:51,761 --> 00:08:54,097
Tossing him out,
or sending him to the movies,
159
00:08:54,222 --> 00:08:58,476
or locking him in the bathroom would
also minimize Alvie's destructive force.
160
00:08:58,601 --> 00:09:02,355
But you chose his company deliberately.
Why?
161
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,524
Obviously, because
he's a Wilson substitute.
162
00:09:04,649 --> 00:09:06,526
You can barely tell the difference
between them,
163
00:09:06,651 --> 00:09:08,486
especially when Wilson raps
about the 'hood.
164
00:09:08,611 --> 00:09:12,198
I'm not suggesting Alvie's a substitute,
but he would make a great distraction.
165
00:09:12,323 --> 00:09:15,285
- From what?
- That's what I'm trying to find out.
166
00:09:17,912 --> 00:09:19,289
Go on.
167
00:09:24,210 --> 00:09:27,338
Maybe the heart rate monitor was a gift.
That's why no one recognized her.
168
00:09:27,463 --> 00:09:29,090
Shut up, Alvie.
169
00:09:29,215 --> 00:09:33,469
Anything familiar? Church?
Grocery store?
170
00:09:34,345 --> 00:09:36,973
- Sorry.
- It's okay, Miss X.
171
00:09:37,098 --> 00:09:38,850
Maybe she's never been
to this town before.
172
00:09:38,975 --> 00:09:41,186
Bought the heart rate monitor
on the store's website.
173
00:09:41,311 --> 00:09:43,396
You know that Puerto Ricans
are US citizens, right?
174
00:09:43,521 --> 00:09:45,732
Instead of working the case,
why don't you contemplate
175
00:09:45,857 --> 00:09:48,234
the inanity of an American with
American immigration issues?
176
00:09:48,359 --> 00:09:49,903
I had a birth certificate. I lost it.
177
00:09:50,028 --> 00:09:51,905
- So get a new one.
- I tried that, House.
178
00:09:52,030 --> 00:09:55,158
But the town hall had burned down
when I was a kid, destroyed the records.
179
00:09:55,283 --> 00:09:56,993
There's only one copy?
180
00:09:57,118 --> 00:09:59,078
They tried to make me fill out
a whole bunch of forms
181
00:09:59,204 --> 00:10:00,246
before they'd give it to me.
182
00:10:00,371 --> 00:10:03,249
I decided it'd be quicker and easier
to do it myself.
183
00:10:03,374 --> 00:10:05,668
- How'd that go?
- They figured out it was forged.
184
00:10:05,793 --> 00:10:07,921
Now, for some reason,
they don't believe anything I say.
185
00:10:08,046 --> 00:10:10,256
They actually think I'm lying
about being Puerto Rican.
186
00:10:10,381 --> 00:10:13,134
Told me I had to go to a special hearing
to prove it.
187
00:10:13,259 --> 00:10:15,887
What if nothing ever looks familiar?
188
00:10:18,806 --> 00:10:21,684
Then someone will show up,
a spouse, a friend,
189
00:10:21,809 --> 00:10:24,479
to tell you who you really are
and what you should be feeling.
190
00:10:24,604 --> 00:10:26,564
They always do.
191
00:10:26,689 --> 00:10:30,401
I don't know who that is,
but I miss him.
192
00:10:34,030 --> 00:10:35,823
What did they say at the hearing?
193
00:10:35,949 --> 00:10:38,284
I didn't go. I lied once.
194
00:10:38,409 --> 00:10:40,912
Your mother is Puerto Rican,
therefore you are Puerto Rican.
195
00:10:41,037 --> 00:10:43,831
All you gotta do is prove your mom
is your mom. Find some documentation...
196
00:10:43,957 --> 00:10:46,334
People like that don't listen
to people like me.
197
00:10:46,459 --> 00:10:47,919
Donuts. Hey, House, let's get donuts!
198
00:10:48,044 --> 00:10:50,213
- Alvie, the hearing...
- Everyone loves donuts.
199
00:10:50,338 --> 00:10:53,049
Glazed, crullers, elephant ears,
even donut holes.
200
00:10:53,174 --> 00:10:54,801
Much better
than the sporting goods store.
201
00:10:54,926 --> 00:10:58,263
- I bet Mrs. X went there all the time.
- We're not here...
202
00:10:58,388 --> 00:11:00,181
HOUSE: And then I realized...
203
00:11:00,974 --> 00:11:03,810
- You make a good point.
- Really? I was making that up.
204
00:11:04,477 --> 00:11:07,313
Dozen glazed, dozen jelly-filled?
205
00:11:07,438 --> 00:11:09,816
You want the usual, right?
206
00:11:09,941 --> 00:11:12,735
Your old friend, the fried carbohydrate.
207
00:11:12,860 --> 00:11:15,613
She needed the calorically dense food
to support the running habit.
208
00:11:15,738 --> 00:11:17,448
Do you know her name?
209
00:11:19,575 --> 00:11:24,580
Sandy or Shelley, I don't know.
The guy she's with called her that once.
210
00:11:24,789 --> 00:11:27,583
- I just work here.
- Do you know where they live?
211
00:11:28,376 --> 00:11:31,296
He left a business card
in our free donut jar.
212
00:11:31,421 --> 00:11:33,089
It's up on the Wall of Winners.
213
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:37,552
(RINGS)
214
00:11:41,347 --> 00:11:42,390
Sidney.
215
00:11:44,892 --> 00:11:47,895
God, I was so worried about you.
216
00:11:49,355 --> 00:11:50,815
What happened?
217
00:12:01,034 --> 00:12:02,910
The police said it was
too soon to do anything,
218
00:12:03,036 --> 00:12:05,288
so I started calling
hospitals on my own.
219
00:12:05,413 --> 00:12:07,582
Princeton-Plainsboro
wasn't even on my list.
220
00:12:07,707 --> 00:12:10,209
You really think something around here
could have made her sick?
221
00:12:10,335 --> 00:12:13,171
HOUSE: Here, work,
anywhere she could have been exposed.
222
00:12:13,296 --> 00:12:15,340
Why wasn't Princeton-Plainsboro
on your list?
223
00:12:15,465 --> 00:12:19,302
Well, I mean, it's a long way to run,
even for her.
224
00:12:20,261 --> 00:12:22,597
What is it I do besides run?
225
00:12:26,100 --> 00:12:29,687
You're a lawyer.
Civil rights, class-action suits.
226
00:12:29,812 --> 00:12:33,524
It's a stressful job.
Running's the way you deal with it.
227
00:12:35,109 --> 00:12:36,402
That doesn't sound like me.
228
00:12:36,527 --> 00:12:38,738
Do you have any idea
what would sound like you?
229
00:12:39,572 --> 00:12:40,698
Good point.
230
00:12:40,823 --> 00:12:43,785
NOLAN: So what were you thinking
during all this?
231
00:12:43,910 --> 00:12:46,371
HOUSE: That it was a strange position
to be in.
232
00:12:47,163 --> 00:12:50,583
At that moment, she was more comfortable
with me than with her husband.
233
00:12:50,708 --> 00:12:52,877
And he was picking up on it.
234
00:12:53,836 --> 00:12:57,757
- What about you?
- What about me how?
235
00:12:57,882 --> 00:13:02,178
There was a sort of artificial intimacy
between you.
236
00:13:02,845 --> 00:13:06,682
She had been dependent on you. Did you
find that attractive on some level?
237
00:13:08,393 --> 00:13:10,770
- Disturbing?
- Those are my two choices?
238
00:13:11,729 --> 00:13:13,106
None of the above.
239
00:13:14,107 --> 00:13:16,609
She was just a patient.
She was interesting.
240
00:13:19,779 --> 00:13:23,116
So we're really married.
241
00:13:24,075 --> 00:13:25,785
For four years.
242
00:13:25,910 --> 00:13:27,995
Miss X, you lead a lemon-fresh life.
243
00:13:28,121 --> 00:13:30,081
I found three different cleansers
under the sink.
244
00:13:30,206 --> 00:13:31,791
Cleaned out the medicine cabinets, too.
245
00:13:31,916 --> 00:13:34,293
You know, she just won a settlement
for some families
246
00:13:34,419 --> 00:13:37,130
whose housing development
was built on an old methane field.
247
00:13:37,255 --> 00:13:39,590
HOUSE: Toxic exposure to methane
could explain this.
248
00:13:40,591 --> 00:13:43,302
- I surf?
- You stopped before we met.
249
00:13:44,345 --> 00:13:46,347
You've been too busy.
250
00:13:48,057 --> 00:13:49,475
And we're married?
251
00:13:50,435 --> 00:13:51,519
Yes.
252
00:13:51,644 --> 00:13:53,271
ALVIE: All right, it's nothing personal.
253
00:13:53,396 --> 00:13:56,482
I bet she didn't think you were her type
back when you first met either.
254
00:13:56,607 --> 00:13:58,317
HOUSE: We'll take her
back to the hospital,
255
00:13:58,443 --> 00:14:01,154
test her blood and urine,
start treatment.
256
00:14:01,279 --> 00:14:02,488
(SIDNEY GROANS)
257
00:14:02,613 --> 00:14:04,490
- Are you okay?
- I'm all right.
258
00:14:05,408 --> 00:14:06,784
- What happened?
- I don't know.
259
00:14:06,909 --> 00:14:10,580
- My foot suddenly went numb.
- Her pants are wet.
260
00:14:11,998 --> 00:14:14,292
Urinary incontinence.
261
00:14:14,417 --> 00:14:19,255
She's having complex partial seizures.
This isn't methane.
262
00:14:20,089 --> 00:14:22,258
And you can leave the bucket.
We need to get her...
263
00:14:22,383 --> 00:14:23,342
NOLAN: Seizures?
264
00:14:23,468 --> 00:14:26,345
(CHUCKLES) This is the second diagnosis
you've come up with
265
00:14:26,471 --> 00:14:28,806
that has a personal resonance for you.
266
00:14:28,931 --> 00:14:31,809
I'm choosing my diagnoses
based on personal issues?
267
00:14:31,934 --> 00:14:33,895
You think she fell down the stairs
and peed her pants
268
00:14:34,020 --> 00:14:35,229
'cause Wilson dumped her, too?
269
00:14:35,354 --> 00:14:37,773
You're choosing to tell me
about this case. So let's look at it.
270
00:14:37,899 --> 00:14:40,443
First, you were fixated
on a harmful toxin from her past,
271
00:14:40,568 --> 00:14:42,820
because you're worried
about a harmful toxin from your...
272
00:14:42,945 --> 00:14:45,656
Chase had the toxin idea.
Maybe he's obsessed with my past.
273
00:14:45,781 --> 00:14:48,826
- Now you're talking about a seizure...
- Which is also not a toxin.
274
00:14:48,951 --> 00:14:52,872
But which is most likely caused
by an old injury to the brain.
275
00:14:52,997 --> 00:14:56,083
Why do you see your past
as such a threat?
276
00:14:56,709 --> 00:14:59,670
Not only am I unthreatened by it,
I was trying to get it back.
277
00:15:00,505 --> 00:15:01,672
There's a ding mark.
278
00:15:02,507 --> 00:15:05,343
It's a piece of junk.
It was dinged when it came in.
279
00:15:05,468 --> 00:15:09,472
Sure. The cup marks, the scuffs,
and the paint, and those three chips.
280
00:15:09,597 --> 00:15:10,973
This fourth one is new.
281
00:15:11,098 --> 00:15:14,060
I run a pawn shop, not a storage
company. Do you want it or not?
282
00:15:15,144 --> 00:15:16,729
That should be it.
283
00:15:18,731 --> 00:15:21,192
You said you pawned five books.
There's only four.
284
00:15:21,317 --> 00:15:23,402
That's all there is.
285
00:15:23,528 --> 00:15:26,656
Where's Approach to the Acute Abdomen?
286
00:15:29,116 --> 00:15:30,201
Sold it.
287
00:15:31,369 --> 00:15:33,120
- To?
- I can't tell you.
288
00:15:33,246 --> 00:15:34,914
It's the law, and it should be.
289
00:15:35,039 --> 00:15:38,543
Crazy bastards like you
try to hunt down their stuff.
290
00:15:41,087 --> 00:15:42,296
How much for the pile?
291
00:15:45,424 --> 00:15:46,717
$500.
292
00:15:47,927 --> 00:15:49,053
You said it was junk.
293
00:15:49,178 --> 00:15:51,764
No, no. It's your junk, you want it.
294
00:15:51,889 --> 00:15:53,641
$500. Take it or leave it.
295
00:16:02,608 --> 00:16:04,902
Why is it so important
that you get your stuff back?
296
00:16:06,195 --> 00:16:10,575
Unlike the rest of humanity, who's okay
when their belongings are taken?
297
00:16:10,700 --> 00:16:12,868
Everyone wants their stuff.
That's why it's their stuff.
298
00:16:12,994 --> 00:16:15,037
Everyone doesn't pay
five times what it's worth.
299
00:16:15,162 --> 00:16:18,332
I like my stuff.
I hate it when Wilson moves...
300
00:16:18,457 --> 00:16:22,211
- Oh.
- This is not about Wilson!
301
00:16:33,306 --> 00:16:34,515
Say it.

- One more, you get a touchdown.

And hike!

NOLAN: Wait, wait, wait. Wait.
311
00:17:21,312 --> 00:17:23,814
You seriously thought you're gonna
tell me that Wilson showed up,
312
00:17:23,939 --> 00:17:25,024
but not tell me what he said?
313
00:17:25,149 --> 00:17:26,400
I thought you were a smart guy
314
00:17:26,525 --> 00:17:28,444
who didn't need the obvious
spelled out to him.
315
00:17:29,445 --> 00:17:31,864
Wilson noticed that I didn't come
to my office all day.
316
00:17:31,989 --> 00:17:36,077
He came to find me. Wanted to make sure
I'm okay. Boring, boring, boring.
317
00:17:36,202 --> 00:17:38,954
But you thought it was important
to tell me about Nerf football?

- You okay?
- Yeah.
321
00:17:53,636 --> 00:17:58,391
It was my mother's. She died
when I was four. It's all I have left.
322
00:17:59,183 --> 00:18:03,020
That's very sad, Alvie.
Listen, I set up an immigration hearing.
323
00:18:03,145 --> 00:18:05,231
No, House. I'm gonna end up in jail.

00:18:10,778 --> 00:18:12,780
You present yourself
as not giving a damn

about other people's emotions,
but your actions indicate otherwise.
328
00:18:17,159 --> 00:18:19,787
You dismiss Alvie's story
about his mother,
329
00:18:19,912 --> 00:18:21,580
but you cared enough
to schedule a hearing.
330
00:18:21,706 --> 00:18:24,083
I cared for eight seconds.
331
00:18:24,208 --> 00:18:26,460

I think there's plenty of stress
in here.
338
00:18:41,225 --> 00:18:43,936
Don't we ever do anything but work?
339
00:18:44,061 --> 00:18:46,564
- You run.
- That's just more work!
340
00:18:46,689 --> 00:18:50,568
What about fun?
God, how can we be this boring?
341
00:18:50,693 --> 00:18:54,321
Apparently, without her memory,
the patient's personality has returned
342
00:18:54,447 --> 00:18:57,950
to what you might call
its natural state.
343
00:18:58,075 --> 00:19:01,120
HOUSE: Seems she had a wake-up call
while she was at college.
344
00:19:02,329 --> 00:19:03,914
Her brother died in a car accident.
345
00:19:04,039 --> 00:19:07,918
She decided to make her life mean
something, went to law school.
346
00:19:08,753 --> 00:19:10,463
Now that's all gone.
347
00:19:12,047 --> 00:19:17,136
The thing that caused the change
is gone, so the change itself is gone.
348
00:19:17,261 --> 00:19:21,557
Yeah. I knew the psychological aspects
of this case would interest you.
349
00:19:21,682 --> 00:19:24,435
Bet you got a theory already.
What is it?
350
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:25,811
It's not relevant.
351
00:19:26,562 --> 00:19:28,314
What is it?
352
00:19:28,439 --> 00:19:30,858
Why do you care about my theory?
353
00:19:33,319 --> 00:19:36,280
I think he just bores her.
354
00:19:36,405 --> 00:19:38,824
I think she's at an earlier stage
of development,
355
00:19:38,949 --> 00:19:43,037
she's looking at her grownup future,
and it puts her to sleep.
356
00:19:43,162 --> 00:19:46,624
If he just bored her,
she'd hide it to be polite.
357
00:19:47,291 --> 00:19:48,793
Their problem is synchronicity.
358
00:19:48,918 --> 00:19:51,337
Just like you and me, House,
they're not on the same page.
359
00:19:51,462 --> 00:19:55,090
He talks to her like someone
he shares history with.
360
00:19:55,216 --> 00:19:58,511
But from her point of view,
he's a stranger forcing intimacy on her.
361
00:19:58,636 --> 00:20:01,263
Of course she doesn't like him.
He's not helping.
362
00:20:01,388 --> 00:20:06,018
He can feel he's losing his wife,
and it makes him come on stronger.
363
00:20:10,439 --> 00:20:12,983
He almost did lose his wife.

(MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY)
366
00:20:39,635 --> 00:20:42,096
The breathing problem was caused
by fluid overload in the lungs.
367
00:20:42,221 --> 00:20:43,722
Diabetes insipidus.
368
00:20:43,848 --> 00:20:46,058
And the DI came from damage
to the hypothalamus.
369
00:20:46,183 --> 00:20:48,727
Hypothalamus here,
that's the DI and incontinence,
370
00:20:48,853 --> 00:20:50,980
the amygdala here,
that's the global amnesia,
371
00:20:51,105 --> 00:20:52,982
and the motor cortex,
that's the foot paralysis.
372
00:20:53,107 --> 00:20:54,316
What do they all have in common?
373
00:20:54,441 --> 00:20:56,318
NOLAN: Now you're just doing this
to mess with me.
374
00:20:56,443 --> 00:20:59,655
What possible relevance does this
differential have to your problems?
375
00:20:59,780 --> 00:21:03,659
It ends with a diagnosis
of Spongiform Encephalitis.
376
00:21:04,285 --> 00:21:06,537
I convinced the team to cut out
part of this woman's brain.
377
00:21:06,662 --> 00:21:08,581
- That's not interesting to you?
- No.
378
00:21:08,706 --> 00:21:13,210
Not even if it's the amygdala?
She'll lose all her long-term memories.
379
00:21:13,335 --> 00:21:16,213
Well, this is where you tell me that
being cavalier with someone else's past
380
00:21:16,338 --> 00:21:18,299
has nothing to do with
avoiding your own past.
381
00:21:18,424 --> 00:21:22,261
The case is irrelevant.
You just found it interesting.
382
00:21:23,888 --> 00:21:26,056
Aren't therapists supposed
to be nurturing?
383
00:21:26,724 --> 00:21:29,226
Nowhere is that in the manual.
384
00:21:31,353 --> 00:21:33,355
Look, you've been in therapy for a year.
385
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,399
You know when I ask you
to talk about anything,
386
00:21:35,524 --> 00:21:36,984
I mean anything that affects you.
387
00:21:37,109 --> 00:21:40,821
What upset you, what made you mad,
or relieved, or joyful.
388
00:21:40,946 --> 00:21:44,491
You want me to believe
that this case means nothing?
389
00:21:46,535 --> 00:21:47,745
Then...
390
00:21:51,415 --> 00:21:52,541
...why should I listen to it?
391
00:22:13,479 --> 00:22:16,273
- Are you charging me for this time?
- Yes.
392
00:22:19,109 --> 00:22:20,778
This is ridiculous.
393
00:22:23,113 --> 00:22:26,075
What's that? On the back of your arm?
394
00:22:28,953 --> 00:22:33,248
- It's just a bruise. I fell.
- You remember falling?
395
00:22:34,667 --> 00:22:39,129
No. I was drunk.
Hence the balance issues.
396
00:22:39,254 --> 00:22:43,092
It looks like you fell on the tip
of someone's boot.
397
00:22:49,390 --> 00:22:52,601
I said something
that someone objected to.
398
00:22:52,726 --> 00:22:54,728
Well, if you don't remember, then how...
399
00:22:54,853 --> 00:22:57,982
It's usually the way it is
when someone hits me.
400
00:22:58,107 --> 00:23:00,234
People who kick
when you're down are jerks,
401
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,695
but they're generally
not irrational jerks.
402
00:23:02,820 --> 00:23:05,322
You got drunk enough to get
into a bar fight and not remember,
403
00:23:05,447 --> 00:23:07,825
and you've been insisting
that everything's fine?
404
00:23:09,535 --> 00:23:13,288
Why go out and get blind drunk?
Were you looking for a fight?
405
00:23:15,124 --> 00:23:16,291
I don't know.
406
00:23:21,755 --> 00:23:24,299
- What have you screwed up?
- What?
407
00:23:24,425 --> 00:23:26,510
You say that when you've been
hit in the past,
408
00:23:26,635 --> 00:23:29,388
it's because you provoked it
with something that you said.
409
00:23:29,513 --> 00:23:31,515
Which means you're well aware
of the risks.
410
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,561
So, on some level, you were in that bar
looking for someone to hurt you.
411
00:23:37,479 --> 00:23:40,399
Logically, people punish themselves
for something they did,
412
00:23:40,524 --> 00:23:42,693
or something they didn't do.
413
00:23:44,153 --> 00:23:47,489
So, what did you screw up?
414
00:23:55,539 --> 00:23:57,166
I don't know.
415
00:24:07,509 --> 00:24:10,054
Okay, there may be a problem.
416
00:24:18,062 --> 00:24:21,482
All right. Let's talk about Wilson.
417
00:24:23,942 --> 00:24:27,446
I told him your book was contaminated
with anthrax spores.
418
00:24:27,571 --> 00:24:30,532
Then I gave him $300.
The address of the buyer.
419
00:24:33,202 --> 00:24:35,704
Maybe I was hasty
in asking you to move out.
420
00:24:35,829 --> 00:24:37,956
Why don't you stay with me and Sam
for a little while?
421
00:24:38,082 --> 00:24:39,708
There's no need to hurry things.
422
00:24:40,584 --> 00:24:41,960
What prompted this?
423
00:24:43,462 --> 00:24:47,800
Look, the whole idea was that after
Mayfield, you wouldn't be on your own.
424
00:24:47,925 --> 00:24:50,969
I can touch base with you a lot more
easily if you're staying with me than...
425
00:24:51,095 --> 00:24:52,596
For God's sake, Wilson.
426
00:24:52,721 --> 00:24:56,308
You really span the chasm
from wishy to washy.
427
00:24:56,433 --> 00:25:00,187
If you're gonna be an ass, be an ass.
Stick with it.
428
00:25:00,312 --> 00:25:03,482
Why were you being so hard on the guy
when he was being conciliatory?
429
00:25:03,607 --> 00:25:08,904
Come on, Cuddy played on his guilt.
She put him up to this.
430
00:25:09,029 --> 00:25:12,783
How do you know that? How do you know
this wasn't entirely his own idea?
431
00:25:12,908 --> 00:25:17,871
Two reasons. First, he wants to create
the perfect environment to be with Sam.
432
00:25:17,996 --> 00:25:20,374
He's been thinking about
asking me to leave for a while.
433
00:25:20,499 --> 00:25:24,086
Finally, he does it, and immediately
turns around and changes his mind?
434
00:25:24,211 --> 00:25:27,589
- No. He talked to somebody.
- Maybe it was Sam.
435
00:25:28,882 --> 00:25:31,009
HOUSE: Yeah, that's a possibility.
436
00:25:31,885 --> 00:25:35,722
I want this to be the last
serious relationship I ever have.
437
00:25:35,848 --> 00:25:38,475
- I want this to be the one.
- Me, too.
438
00:25:42,479 --> 00:25:45,983
Where's House?
It's not as meaningful without him.
439
00:25:46,108 --> 00:25:49,361
Okay, not Sam.
440
00:25:49,486 --> 00:25:54,116
- That still doesn't answer why Cuddy.
- Because they've been talking about me.
441
00:25:54,241 --> 00:25:58,495
She called me to check on the patient,
which she never does without a reason.
442
00:25:58,620 --> 00:26:00,414
I asked why, and she said...
443
00:26:00,539 --> 00:26:02,666
She's a barracuda attorney, House.
444
00:26:02,791 --> 00:26:04,960
These are the kind of patients
we like to keep happy.
445
00:26:05,085 --> 00:26:08,589
Right now, the patient's lucky
if she can spell "jurisprudence."
446
00:26:08,714 --> 00:26:11,842
CUDDY: Yeah, but when she gets
that memory back,
447
00:26:11,967 --> 00:26:15,304
which we're trying to make happen,
she'll be able to spell "lawsuit."
448
00:26:15,429 --> 00:26:17,264
I'm just touching base.
449
00:26:18,807 --> 00:26:23,103
"Touching base."
Wilson used exactly the same phrase.
450
00:26:23,228 --> 00:26:25,522
Colluding about me is
their favorite pastime.
451
00:26:26,899 --> 00:26:28,984
Okay, you think they talked.
452
00:26:31,195 --> 00:26:34,114
How do you think that conversation went?
453
00:26:37,701 --> 00:26:39,661
WILSON: I'm worried about House.
454
00:26:41,622 --> 00:26:45,125
Me, too. Couldn't you have waited?
455
00:26:45,250 --> 00:26:49,046
It's way too early for him to be
on his own, back in the old apartment.
456
00:26:49,171 --> 00:26:52,174
- What makes you think he can handle it?
- I offered to find him a new place.
457
00:26:52,299 --> 00:26:54,051
You have to let him back
into your condo.
458
00:26:54,176 --> 00:26:55,636
Sam and I just got him out of the condo.
459
00:26:55,761 --> 00:26:58,680
CUDDY: You know what House is like.
He's self-destructive.
460
00:26:58,805 --> 00:27:02,517
Without constant supervision,
he's gonna slide back into drugs.
461
00:27:02,643 --> 00:27:05,479
If you're not watching him, I've got to.
462
00:27:05,604 --> 00:27:06,772
Yeah.
463
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:12,444
So they don't trust you.
They assume you'll fail.
464
00:27:12,569 --> 00:27:14,905
Are these their fears or yours?
465
00:27:16,156 --> 00:27:20,494
(CHUCKLES)
Let's turn on the lights. Hmm?
466
00:27:22,371 --> 00:27:24,456
In your brain.
467
00:27:24,581 --> 00:27:28,210
Maybe they did talk about you,
468
00:27:28,335 --> 00:27:30,504
but how do you know
it didn't happen like this?
469
00:27:32,339 --> 00:27:34,633
- I'm worried about House.
- Why?
470
00:27:34,758 --> 00:27:36,885
It's the first time
he'll be on his own since Mayfield.
471
00:27:37,010 --> 00:27:40,180
You're being over-protective. He doesn't
need to be wrapped in cotton wool.
472
00:27:40,305 --> 00:27:43,267
But you know that, or you wouldn't have
asked him to move out.
473
00:27:43,392 --> 00:27:48,689
Okay. I guess this is really about me.
It's just I feel like a jerk.
474
00:27:49,773 --> 00:27:53,068
Sure, Sam and I are gonna wanna be
on our own eventually,
475
00:27:53,193 --> 00:27:55,279
but I kind of sprang this on him.
476
00:27:55,404 --> 00:27:57,114
The right way would've been
to just tell him
477
00:27:57,239 --> 00:28:00,450
to take as long as he needed,
that there's no hurry.
478
00:28:00,575 --> 00:28:03,662
So it's not what you did,
but how you did it?
479
00:28:03,787 --> 00:28:07,874
That matters in a friendship.
I need to fix this.
480
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,086
Why don't you talk to him
about moving back in?
481
00:28:12,004 --> 00:28:13,297
Just touch base.
482
00:28:14,923 --> 00:28:17,259
We're having a consent issue
with the patient.
483
00:28:17,384 --> 00:28:20,595
- Wait a minute. Taub's not here.
- Yeah, he is.
484
00:28:20,721 --> 00:28:22,639
We're having a consent issue
with the patient.
485
00:28:22,764 --> 00:28:25,309
What's Taub doing in
my imaginary version
486
00:28:25,434 --> 00:28:26,727
of a scene with Wilson and Cuddy?
487
00:28:26,852 --> 00:28:29,104
Your version needed to be ended.
Because it's crap.
488
00:28:29,229 --> 00:28:33,191
It's all sweetness and light and faith
that I'm gonna choose the right path.
489
00:28:33,317 --> 00:28:34,860
Yeah, that sounds like Wilson.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)
491
00:28:38,613 --> 00:28:42,326
I have as much evidence for mine
as you do for yours.
492
00:28:42,451 --> 00:28:44,161
I know Wilson's your friend,
493
00:28:44,286 --> 00:28:47,205
so he could be wondering
if he did right by you.
494
00:28:47,331 --> 00:28:49,833
And I know he wouldn't have asked you
to move out in the first place
495
00:28:49,958 --> 00:28:52,127
unless he was convinced
you could handle life on your own.
496
00:28:52,252 --> 00:28:55,130
And I know that he and Cuddy have gone
behind my back before
497
00:28:55,255 --> 00:28:58,216
to strategize about "the House problem."
498
00:28:58,342 --> 00:29:00,302
So there's truth in both versions.
499
00:29:00,427 --> 00:29:04,806
But you choose to focus on the parts
that make you uncomfortable. So...
500
00:29:11,271 --> 00:29:16,443
Why are you and Wilson friends?
501
00:29:19,529 --> 00:29:23,116
Do you think this friendship
is the best you can do?
502
00:29:23,825 --> 00:29:29,289
- Wilson is not a consolation prize.
- There, you're defending him.
503
00:29:29,414 --> 00:29:31,625
And a minute ago, he was skulking around
in the background
504
00:29:31,750 --> 00:29:33,960
like some sort of manipulative Iago.
505
00:29:35,337 --> 00:29:39,132
- He's my friend.
- So what do you value in him?
506
00:29:44,554 --> 00:29:48,225
I can say whatever I want to him,
and he'll never leave.
507
00:29:48,350 --> 00:29:52,604
He's sort of leaving.
At least, he won't be around as much.
508
00:29:54,856 --> 00:29:58,860
- Because he's putting Sam first.
- For now.
509
00:29:59,986 --> 00:30:04,825
After the divorce, he'll probably ask me
to move in again. I take the long view.
510
00:30:06,701 --> 00:30:09,079
- You say that to Wilson?
- Are you kidding?
511
00:30:09,204 --> 00:30:11,873
That's the kind of remark
that leads people to hit you.
512
00:30:16,503 --> 00:30:18,672
Maybe you've been right
from the beginning.
513
00:30:18,797 --> 00:30:20,632
Maybe this isn't about Wilson.
514
00:30:22,801 --> 00:30:24,803
You say that now
that I finally agree with you?
515
00:30:24,928 --> 00:30:26,972
Do you just argue
the opposite of whatever I say?
516
00:30:27,097 --> 00:30:29,808
I don't mean the Wilson thing
doesn't bother you.
517
00:30:29,933 --> 00:30:33,353
But it sounds like he's the closest
you could come to a safe relationship.
518
00:30:33,478 --> 00:30:36,022
You'd have to do something major
to screw it up.
519
00:30:37,441 --> 00:30:39,776
What else have you been involved in
this week?
520
00:30:41,486 --> 00:30:43,280
What would you want
to punish yourself for?
521
00:30:45,031 --> 00:30:47,117
I told you, I don't know.
522
00:30:49,453 --> 00:30:52,497
Okay, let's approach it
from a different angle.
523
00:30:52,622 --> 00:30:58,336
Have you gotten any other people angry
at you over anything?
524
00:30:59,504 --> 00:31:03,425
Well, yeah. That's why I called it
an ordinary week.
525
00:31:03,550 --> 00:31:05,427
Okay. Tell me about it.
526
00:31:13,101 --> 00:31:15,103
JAY: You'd be losing
a part of your brain.
527
00:31:15,228 --> 00:31:18,523
It is my brain.
Why is it not my right to consent?
528
00:31:19,524 --> 00:31:22,486
I'm sorry, but I'll take this to court
if necessary, all right?
529
00:31:22,611 --> 00:31:25,280
Sidney's in no position to make
decisions about herself right now.
530
00:31:25,405 --> 00:31:26,823
She doesn't even know who she is.
531
00:31:26,948 --> 00:31:29,576
I read your consent form and
I understood it. I want the surgery.
532
00:31:29,701 --> 00:31:30,702
JAY: Why wouldn't she?
533
00:31:30,827 --> 00:31:33,622
Of course she's willing
to risk losing her memories permanently.
534
00:31:33,747 --> 00:31:36,833
She has no idea
how important those memories are.
535
00:31:36,958 --> 00:31:40,420
Does she even know what "risk" is?
She's never lost anything!
536
00:31:40,545 --> 00:31:43,298
Without the surgery,
she'll lose everything.
537
00:31:43,423 --> 00:31:46,635
The prion infection will continue
to advance and destroy her whole brain.
538
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,803
There has to be another way.
539
00:31:49,888 --> 00:31:51,014
Please.
540
00:31:53,725 --> 00:31:57,145
I'm speaking for my wife,
the wife I lived with for four years,
541
00:31:57,270 --> 00:32:00,023
who isn't here and can't defend herself.
542
00:32:01,775 --> 00:32:03,527
Dr. House, are you listening?
543
00:32:03,652 --> 00:32:07,656
Well, you can stop arguing
'cause it doesn't matter anymore.
544
00:32:07,781 --> 00:32:10,200
Look at the variability
in the heart rate.
545
00:32:10,325 --> 00:32:12,661
The SE's spread into the brainstem.
546
00:32:12,786 --> 00:32:15,455
Wherever it is,
you can still cut it out.
547
00:32:16,915 --> 00:32:20,502
No. We can't cut the brainstem.
548
00:32:20,627 --> 00:32:24,297
HOUSE: This thing's moving too quickly.
Surgery is no longer an option.
549
00:32:24,422 --> 00:32:27,425
Which, I guess, means you've won.
Congratulations.
550
00:32:28,468 --> 00:32:30,762
Put in a pacer,
and start her on chemo and radiation.
551
00:32:30,887 --> 00:32:33,014
It won't cure her,
but it'll buy a couple weeks,
552
00:32:33,139 --> 00:32:35,642
so she can find out
who she is before she dies.
553
00:32:38,603 --> 00:32:40,313
NOLAN: That was pretty rough.
554
00:32:40,438 --> 00:32:42,566
Do you always break the news
to your patients that way?
555
00:32:42,691 --> 00:32:45,151
Or were you shorthanding it for me?
556
00:32:45,277 --> 00:32:48,738
- Husband was being an idiot.
- Well, he was asking for it.
557
00:32:49,990 --> 00:32:53,660
But to punish him,
you had to punish the wife, too.
558
00:32:53,785 --> 00:32:57,998
Why did he make you so angry? Because
he didn't want to cooperate with you?
559
00:32:59,499 --> 00:33:02,711
He'd rather risk his wife's life
than their marriage.
560
00:33:03,503 --> 00:33:04,796
People's brains stop working
561
00:33:04,921 --> 00:33:07,090
when they think they're gonna lose
someone they love.
562
00:33:09,050 --> 00:33:10,260
Your leg hurting?
563
00:33:14,139 --> 00:33:15,390
It's all right.
564
00:33:16,266 --> 00:33:17,434
Okay-
565
00:33:18,184 --> 00:33:21,730
Anyone else you pissed off?
(LAWN MOWER WHIRRING)
566
00:33:28,069 --> 00:33:30,864
- Fifty bucks for the book.
- Forget it.
567
00:33:31,865 --> 00:33:35,201
- You paid $25. That's 100% return.
- That's what I paid.
568
00:33:35,327 --> 00:33:39,456
But it's a rare surgical text, nearly
100 years old, plates in mint condition.
569
00:33:39,581 --> 00:33:42,542
That book's worth
several thousand dollars.
570
00:33:42,667 --> 00:33:45,795
- $2,000. I'll write you a check.
- Nice try.
571
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:50,258
Face it. I had the wit to recognize
something valuable when I saw it.
572
00:33:50,383 --> 00:33:55,764
In the great Darwinian race, I get
my just reward, you become roadkill.
573
00:34:08,276 --> 00:34:10,362
Yo, House,
you wanna stop by the library?
574
00:34:10,487 --> 00:34:12,989
'Cause I got a book to return.

He said the roses need more fertilizer.

I didn't know there was
a section of the brain just for hope.

00:34:32,634 --> 00:34:34,219
It's very, very tiny.

Hello. Rapidly progressive

This isn't SE, and whatever it is,
it's not just in her brain,

00:34:46,272 --> 00:34:47,857
it's attacking her whole body.

You work for House? I guess
we're teammates. Isn't that cool?

- Juan Alvarez?
- What the hell?

We're taking you into custody.
Deportation order.
591
00:34:59,828 --> 00:35:02,163
I'm a citizen.
You're disrespecting Puerto Rico.
592
00:35:02,288 --> 00:35:05,166
If you're a citizen,
why did you miss your hearing?
593

You called them?

What's going on?
595
00:35:27,021 --> 00:35:29,899
We're trying to stabilize her heart.
She's still tachy and hypotensive.

Brain, heart, and rapidly progressing.

THIRTEEN: Endocarditis.
598
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,158
Slow-moving infection in her heart
throws clots to her brain.
599
00:35:38,283 --> 00:35:40,034
I'm not talking to you.

00:35:42,162 --> 00:35:43,246
How could you turn me in?
601

CHASE: Her extreme exercise
suppresses her immune system,
602
00:35:45,832 --> 00:35:47,333
allows the infection to smolder.

to re-activate. TB.

TAUB: Even IV antibiotics
will take time to work.

A gentle reminder,
the use of cell phones is prohibited.
608
00:36:03,183 --> 00:36:05,852
Give her the first dose
directly into the lungs in the OR.
609
00:36:05,977 --> 00:36:08,021
Before the less-gentle arrest
for contempt.
610
00:36:08,146 --> 00:36:10,106
Put her in an isolation room
with UV light.
611
00:36:10,231 --> 00:36:12,609
And get yourselves tested.
You've all been exposed.

It could be.

You faked it?

00:36:53,566 --> 00:36:56,319
It wasn't just me.
You lied to them, too.

"Eddie would go." It's a surfing phrase.
Must be from her earlier life.
630

She tried to get it removed.

But they only took off
the top layers of skin.
632

The ink is still in the deeper layers.
633
00:37:48,621 --> 00:37:50,623
It set off an allergic reaction.

00:37:50,748 --> 00:37:53,293
She was fine until she started
the long-distance running.
635
00:37:53,418 --> 00:37:55,753
The ultra-marathoning
modified her immune system

00:39:50,243 --> 00:39:52,078
Nothing happened next.
666
00:40:13,766 --> 00:40:15,059
(DOOR OPENS)
667
00:40:15,977 --> 00:40:17,395
(DOOR CLOSES)
668
00:40:19,772 --> 00:40:21,357
That's all I got.
669
00:40:22,567 --> 00:40:24,736
(SIGHS)
670
00:40:25,945 --> 00:40:27,572
Relationships.
671
00:40:28,948 --> 00:40:31,993
Bergman. What do you want me to say?
672
00:40:32,118 --> 00:40:34,704
I don't know.
You're the one who set the theme.
673
00:40:34,829 --> 00:40:38,583
Something about relationships
made you go out and provoke a fight.
674
00:40:39,792 --> 00:40:42,336
Wilson and Sam have a relationship.
675
00:40:43,337 --> 00:40:46,340
- You're not thrilled about it.
- They're happy.
676
00:40:47,967 --> 00:40:51,471
Why should I screw that up?
Everyone's happy.
677
00:40:52,388 --> 00:40:54,265
Everyone's moving in together.
678
00:40:55,975 --> 00:40:58,686
Wilson and Sam, Cuddy and Lucas,
even Alvie and his...
679
00:40:58,811 --> 00:41:03,232
Cuddy and Lucas are moving in together?
You didn't mention that.
680
00:41:03,357 --> 00:41:06,778
They've talked about moving in together
before. It's not big news.
681
00:41:11,657 --> 00:41:12,867
Cuddy.
682
00:41:19,248 --> 00:41:20,458
Cuddy.
683
00:41:22,919 --> 00:41:26,005
Approach to the Acute Abdomen.
684
00:41:33,888 --> 00:41:38,017
Written by Ernest T. Cuddy, M.D.
Any relation to your Cuddy?
685
00:41:40,019 --> 00:41:41,896
Her great-grandfather.
686
00:41:43,231 --> 00:41:45,066
I've had it for years.
687
00:41:45,775 --> 00:41:48,611
Always meant to give it to her
for a special occasion.
688
00:41:49,487 --> 00:41:53,950
- Like her housewarming?
- It's just a gift.
689
00:41:54,075 --> 00:41:56,702
A woman you care about has taken
one step further away from you
690
00:41:56,828 --> 00:41:58,913
and closer to someone else.
691
00:41:59,038 --> 00:42:02,917
I think I can safely say, yes, it's
significant if you don't mention it.
692
00:42:03,042 --> 00:42:05,711
You were willing to punish the husband
of your patient
693
00:42:05,837 --> 00:42:08,005
because you identified with him.
694
00:42:09,465 --> 00:42:11,843
He was also losing someone he loved.
695
00:42:11,968 --> 00:42:13,386
I'm not gonna go out and get hammered
696
00:42:13,511 --> 00:42:16,514
because a woman I'm not even with
is moving in with someone.
697
00:42:16,639 --> 00:42:18,349
That'd be pathetic.
698
00:42:20,977 --> 00:42:22,812
To hell with this.
699
00:42:25,982 --> 00:42:30,653
When I first came to you,
I told you that I wanted to be happy.
700
00:42:30,778 --> 00:42:34,949
I followed your advice,
and instead I'm just miserable.
701
00:42:35,867 --> 00:42:40,413
- How is this working for me?
- It takes time.
702
00:42:40,538 --> 00:42:42,915
For a year, I've done everything
you've asked,
703
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,209
and everybody else is happy.
704
00:42:45,877 --> 00:42:49,088
I run my treadmill,
you just sit there and watch.
705
00:42:50,131 --> 00:42:52,008
You're a faith healer.
706
00:42:52,925 --> 00:42:56,179
You take advantage
of people who want to believe.
707
00:42:59,056 --> 00:43:02,101
But there's nothing
in your bag of tricks.
708
00:43:04,187 --> 00:43:05,396
House!
709
00:43:07,565 --> 00:43:10,359
Whatever the answer is,
you don't have it.
