1. Hey.
Copy !req
2. How long have i...?
Copy !req
3. forced trauma to the head...
Copy !req
4. since the accident,
he's had a continued...
Copy !req
5. why can't i get up?
Copy !req
6. No episodes of hyperten...
Copy !req
7. what's wrong with my legs?
Copy !req
8. Ekg's show normal...
Copy !req
9. hey!
Someone talk to me.
Copy !req
10. Dilation, no hypertrophy...
Copy !req
11. you don't
hear me talking to you?
Copy !req
12. Normal feeling pressure,
normal c.k. Troponin...
Copy !req
13. great heart for transplant.
Copy !req
14. My heart?
Copy !req
15. Oh, god!
They don't know i'm in here.
Copy !req
16. Hey, genius.
Copy !req
17. I think it
violates certain ethical laws
Copy !req
18. to rip the organs out of
a guy who's still alive.
Copy !req
19. Possibly certain
law laws too.
Copy !req
20. Thank you.
Thank you.
Copy !req
21. Could you, um, get back
in your bed, please, mr. House?
Copy !req
22. It's actually doctor house.
Copy !req
23. This guy's a doctor?
There's also navy seal house.
Copy !req
24. But you're going to have
to save up for that one.
Copy !req
25. Really?
Well, that's interesting, but...
Copy !req
26. you're here because
you crashed your motorcycle,
Copy !req
27. not because i need a consult.
Copy !req
28. So, get back in bed.
Copy !req
29. I scraped my elbow, i just
need a truckload of vicodin.
Copy !req
30. Whereas, this guy...
Copy !req
31. he's brain dead.
Copy !req
32. No, i'm not!
Copy !req
33. So drop it.
Copy !req
34. See that?
Copy !req
35. Minimal brainwaves
don't mean he's alive.
Copy !req
36. I am alive!
I'm here!
Copy !req
37. No ekg response
to painful stimuli, hot or cold.
Copy !req
38. What you're seeing is random,
barely discernable.
Copy !req
39. I discerned it.
Listen to him, please.
Copy !req
40. No, that's just
the amplifier's
Copy !req
41. internal noise level.
Copy !req
42. It's on increased sensitivity.
Copy !req
43. No, it's not!
It's me.
Copy !req
44. Then why is
his eye following you?
Copy !req
45. Exactly.
Copy !req
46. Following motion's
an involuntary reflex.
Copy !req
47. No.
You're a doctor...
Copy !req
48. you should know these things.
Copy !req
49. No, no,
i'm not dead, i need help.
Copy !req
50. I'm here!
Copy !req
51. I also know
about locked-in syndrome...
Copy !req
52. that things
are either involuntary...
Copy !req
53. or voluntary.
Copy !req
54. Blink if you can hear me.
Copy !req
55. I hear you.
Copy !req
56. Oh, this is going to be fun.
Copy !req
57. Eye movement is deliberate.
Copy !req
58. Can you blink once
for "yes," twice for "no?"
Copy !req
59. I hope so.
Copy !req
60. The square root of nine?
Copy !req
61. He got that faster than you.
Copy !req
62. The brain is fully functional.
Copy !req
63. Lee...
where's molly?
Copy !req
64. You were in an accident.
Copy !req
65. Hit the brake,
hit the brake, hit the brake!
Copy !req
66. You've sustained a traumatic
injury to your brain stem
Copy !req
67. which has cut off
your brain's ability
Copy !req
68. to communicate with
the rest of your body.
Copy !req
69. Can you fix me?
Where's molly?
Copy !req
70. You still have movement
in your eyes.
Copy !req
71. So we can get you
to a rehab facility
Copy !req
72. where they can teach you
how to communicate.
Copy !req
73. No, i can't be stuck
like this.
Copy !req
74. Unless...
Copy !req
75. the crash didn't cause
the brain damage.
Copy !req
76. Maybe the brain damage
caused the crash.
Copy !req
77. Yeah, i couldn't stop.
Why couldn't i stop?
Copy !req
78. Look at his palms.
Copy !req
79. There's no scrapes.
Copy !req
80. He didn't even
try to protect himself.
Copy !req
81. So you had slowed reflexes...
or no reflexes.
Copy !req
82. You're not a doctor
in this hospital.
Copy !req
83. You are a patient.
Copy !req
84. Yeah, and you're the guy
who wants to cut out my organs,
Copy !req
85. and he's the guy who doesn't.
Copy !req
86. Stroke, cancer,
even a simple infection,
Copy !req
87. anything that insults
the central pons could do this.
Copy !req
88. Then that means
that i could be fixed.
Copy !req
89. You're giving him false hope.
Copy !req
90. He needs to accept
what's happened.
Copy !req
91. And work on making
the most of it.
Copy !req
92. Molly.
Copy !req
93. Hey.
Copy !req
94. Don't look
at me like that.
Copy !req
95. That's not
making me feel better.
Copy !req
96. I love you.
Copy !req
97. I don't know how god
is going to get us through this.
Copy !req
98. But he will.
Copy !req
99. Stop it.
I'm blushing.
Copy !req
100. What are you doing?
Copy !req
101. Just looking for some reading
material for the crapper.
Copy !req
102. These cts...
Copy !req
103. get back in your bed.
Copy !req
104. Come on.
Copy !req
105. The children
are in the waiting area,
Copy !req
106. can i bring them in?
Copy !req
107. No.
No, don't.
Copy !req
108. You don't want to see them?
Copy !req
109. I don't want
them having nightmares.
Copy !req
110. I don't want
to scare them, molly.
Copy !req
111. You don't want them
to see you?
Copy !req
112. It's okay.
Copy !req
113. I understand.
Copy !req
114. You're going
to be better soon enough.
Copy !req
115. You really that sure?
Copy !req
116. Why are you so sure?
Copy !req
117. Baby, how'd you get so sure?
Copy !req
118. You okay?
Copy !req
119. Never better.
Copy !req
120. Here's your burger.
Copy !req
121. If you can't
bring mohammed to princeton,
Copy !req
122. bring princeton to mohammed.
Copy !req
123. That's my diagnostics posse.
Copy !req
124. Hot, dark, and darker.
Copy !req
125. Talk about
getting me better, please.
Copy !req
126. What are you doing
up in middletown?
Copy !req
127. Who cares?
Buying a gibson '57 goldtop.
Copy !req
128. It's the guitar
duane allman used to play.
Copy !req
129. Next to the trauma,
the mostly likely causes
Copy !req
130. of a sudden onset
of locked-in syndrome
Copy !req
131. are basilar artery stroke,
and brain hemorrhage.
Copy !req
132. Ct was clean.
Copy !req
133. Man, those fries look good.
Copy !req
134. Guy's an active bike rider,
his heart's fine.
Copy !req
135. A well-placed tumor
could explain it.
Copy !req
136. Jeez, is the last thing i ate
gonna be the last thing i ate?
Copy !req
137. It could evade the ct,
Copy !req
138. and still show up
on an mri with contrast.
Copy !req
139. It was a melted power bar.
Copy !req
140. She's the smart one.
Copy !req
141. I just keep dark and darker
to fill out the quota.
Copy !req
142. If we find it, treat it,
you could be fine.
Copy !req
143. I never thought i'd
be praying for a brain tumor,
Copy !req
144. but please, dear god.
Copy !req
145. If you're praying in there,
stop it right now.
Copy !req
146. We'll get his doctor
to order an mri.
Copy !req
147. His doctor's
busy teaching him how
Copy !req
148. to blink out "kill me"
in morse code.
Copy !req
149. Luckily, i found some forms
under the mattress.
Copy !req
150. Check it out, they have
those mri video goggles.
Copy !req
151. I heard these were awesome.
Copy !req
152. What do you see?
It's a beach.
Copy !req
153. Oh, look, there's taub...
Copy !req
154. drinking a margarita
and mocking us
Copy !req
155. for driving
all the way up here...
Copy !req
156. easy,
i can still feel in here.
Copy !req
157. Excuse dr. Kutner,
Copy !req
158. he gets a little excited
about new technology.
Copy !req
159. It can get loud in there,
and a little closed off.
Copy !req
160. These will put you
in a quiet place.
Copy !req
161. You can create a relaxing
scenario for yourself.
Copy !req
162. I hope they...
Copy !req
163. work.
Copy !req
164. You're in my relaxing scenario?
Copy !req
165. I guess you like me.
Copy !req
166. Either that,
or you got sent here.
Copy !req
167. What? By god?
Copy !req
168. I'm not sure
if i believe in god.
Copy !req
169. You spend an awful
lot of time in church
Copy !req
170. for someone who doesn't.
Copy !req
171. I don't not believe either.
Copy !req
172. It's either one
or the other.
Copy !req
173. I go to church mainly
to keep my wife happy,
Copy !req
174. but...
Copy !req
175. i don't know,
i've never actually thought
Copy !req
176. that god could reach out
and affect my life.
Copy !req
177. But getting a brilliant doctor
in the bed next to me?
Copy !req
178. God is also the guy
Copy !req
179. who opened his car door
in front of you.
Copy !req
180. I think molly was right.
Copy !req
181. I think you were sent here
to make me get better.
Copy !req
182. I think so.
Copy !req
183. Hey!
Copy !req
184. Hey, dad.
Copy !req
185. Making a volcano.
Copy !req
186. You're making a volcano?
It looks like it.
Copy !req
187. What you doing, baby?
Copy !req
188. What time is it?
Copy !req
189. Hope you don't mind.
Copy !req
190. My new roommate snores.
Copy !req
191. And my new room
doesn't have you.
Copy !req
192. Your mri showed a lesion
in the central pons.
Copy !req
193. What is that?
What does that mean?
Copy !req
194. See it there?
Copy !req
195. No.
Copy !req
196. Mm, that's what they said.
Copy !req
197. But it's there.
Copy !req
198. Which means no way
head trauma did this.
Copy !req
199. It's cancer, causing
a paraneoplastic syndrome.
Copy !req
200. Unfortunately,
your current doctor thinks
Copy !req
201. its diffuse nature
means an infection.
Copy !req
202. And the bad news is,
the antivirals he's got you on
Copy !req
203. might kill you.
Copy !req
204. I'm not gonna die.
Copy !req
205. But the good news is
if they just almost kill you,
Copy !req
206. then dr. Idiot will realize
Copy !req
207. that his name
is not a coincidence
Copy !req
208. and he'll let me do
whatever i want.
Copy !req
209. Thank you.
Copy !req
210. See, the irony here is...
Copy !req
211. you're kind of fascinating.
Copy !req
212. So many questions.
Copy !req
213. But if you could answer
any of them,
Copy !req
214. you wouldn't be fascinating.
Copy !req
215. I get it, you're
a little nuts, aren't you?
Copy !req
216. Your wife is the one
getting you through this.
Copy !req
217. Your wife and me.
Copy !req
218. Although frankly,
the mri was a lot more useful
Copy !req
219. than four hours
of hand-holding.
Copy !req
220. I think.
Copy !req
221. If you had a wife,
you'd know why it matters.
Copy !req
222. You're a good guy.
Easy to talk to.
Copy !req
223. Wait, something's happening.
Copy !req
224. What's happening to me?
Copy !req
225. I need some help in here!
Copy !req
226. Your patient is seizing.
Copy !req
227. Why would he have a seizure?
Copy !req
228. Because he has cancer!
Copy !req
229. His brain stem
is compromised.
Copy !req
230. Why are you
still arguing with this guy?
Copy !req
231. You thought i was dead.
Copy !req
232. Welcome back.
And nicely played.
Copy !req
233. You almost died.
Copy !req
234. Exactly as we planned.
Copy !req
235. You knew this
was going to happen?
Copy !req
236. It usually happens when
you treat cancer
Copy !req
237. by pretending it's not cancer.
Copy !req
238. Right, doctor?
My turn?
Copy !req
239. It's cancer?
Copy !req
240. No, it isn't.
Yes!
Copy !req
241. A small tumor
in his brain stem,
Copy !req
242. causing paraneoplastic syndrome.
Copy !req
243. He needs plasmapheresis.
Copy !req
244. Can you give that to him?
Copy !req
245. No, i'm sorry, i completely
disagree with dr. House.
Copy !req
246. Please shut up.
Copy !req
247. I don't.
Which means i can treat him.
Copy !req
248. Let him. Let him.
Copy !req
249. Is that what you want?
Copy !req
250. Absolutely.
Copy !req
251. Would you send up
a couple of bellboys?
Copy !req
252. I got the transfefer papers.
Copy !req
253. Plasmapheresis is all set up.
Copy !req
254. Are you okay?
Copy !req
255. Fresh infusion of macho.
Copy !req
256. You like?
Copy !req
257. I can't move, and
she's worried about his boo-boo?
Copy !req
258. What were you
doing up there, anyway?
Copy !req
259. Antiquing.
Copy !req
260. I found you
a late victorian corset.
Copy !req
261. Come by later,
i'll tie you up.
Copy !req
262. Is heitting on her?
Copy !req
263. If she turns around,
she's into him too.
Copy !req
264. And there, yeah.
Copy !req
265. Sorry i didn't
show up in middletown.
Copy !req
266. I didn't get the message.
Copy !req
267. Probably because
there was no message.
Copy !req
268. I've decided
to accept your resignation.
Copy !req
269. Uh, i thought
we were past this.
Copy !req
270. I decided to stay.
Copy !req
271. No, you didn't.
You had it decided for you.
Copy !req
272. So now you're stuck here
with a boss
Copy !req
273. who knows that you want
to be somewhere else.
Copy !req
274. Which means you're no longer
motivated to impress me,
Copy !req
275. which means you're
no longer motivated
Copy !req
276. to come up
with good ideas.
Copy !req
277. Unless i'm wrong.
Copy !req
278. Save the cheerleader.
Save your world.
Copy !req
279. I got it from here.
Copy !req
280. I thought you already
solved this.
Copy !req
281. Are you thinking
you might be wrong?
Copy !req
282. What's going on?
Copy !req
283. Hey, just curious...
Copy !req
284. what were you driving up
to middletown for?
Copy !req
285. What do you care?
Why does he care?
Copy !req
286. Because i'm your friend.
Copy !req
287. I was buying a guitar.
Copy !req
288. Yeah, i heard that.
Copy !req
289. It used to belong
to a guitarist
Copy !req
290. who died
in a motorcycle accident.
Copy !req
291. It just reeks of
you screwing with people.
Copy !req
292. Your crash was ten miles
Copy !req
293. from the orange county
progressive pain clinic.
Copy !req
294. You live ten miles
from mary's dress shop.
Copy !req
295. And yet, that's not
even on my list of reasons
Copy !req
296. that i think you're
secretly a transvestite.
Copy !req
297. If you're going to another
state to get more narcotics...
Copy !req
298. he's on drugs?
I went to visit
Copy !req
299. your ex-ex-ex-wife...
what?
Copy !req
300. Who lives
in thompson ridge.
Copy !req
301. I let her know
about the extra money
Copy !req
302. you're making
on the lecture circuit.
Copy !req
303. So she'll be sure
to adjust your alimony.
Copy !req
304. You wouldn't do that.
Copy !req
305. Yeah.
I wouldn't do that.
Copy !req
306. Would you?
Copy !req
307. You guys are friends?
Copy !req
308. Shouldn't we be
entertaining our patient?
Copy !req
309. I performed euripides
with sock puppets.
Copy !req
310. You just missed it.
Copy !req
311. House said we should.
Copy !req
312. The mind is like a muscle.
Copy !req
313. If you don't exercise it,
it'll atrophy,
Copy !req
314. just like anything else.
Copy !req
315. Whoever's with him needs
to talk.
Copy !req
316. Keep his mind active, and
it'll show house you still care.
Copy !req
317. Not sure if i do.
Copy !req
318. Jeez, you're my doctor?
Copy !req
319. Then why don't you just quit?
Copy !req
320. I'm not sure
i want to do that, either.
Copy !req
321. Maybe you should figure it out
Copy !req
322. before house
figures it out for you.
Copy !req
323. Yeah, maybe you should have
your midlife crisis
Copy !req
324. after i'm better.
Copy !req
325. Kutner...
Copy !req
326. we'll be right back.
Copy !req
327. Wait.
Wait, what did you just see?
Copy !req
328. Do you drink?
Copy !req
329. He's a roofer.
Copy !req
330. Alcohol hardly
proves your theory.
Copy !req
331. Marchiafava bignami disease
fits.
Copy !req
332. Lft's are normal.
Copy !req
333. Speak english. Is it fixable?
What does that mean?
Copy !req
334. That hurts.
Copy !req
335. No tremors.
Copy !req
336. How much do you drink?
A six-pack a day?
Copy !req
337. I hate beer,
i don't even drink beer.
Copy !req
338. Maybe more or less.
Or maybe something else.
Copy !req
339. It may not be alcohol at all.
Copy !req
340. Street opiates
can also cause locked-in...
Copy !req
341. i don't get high.
Copy !req
342. So, either
we play 20,000 questions
Copy !req
343. with every street drug,
Copy !req
344. or instead of talking to him,
we talk to the lesion.
Copy !req
345. Talk to me.
Copy !req
346. We're going
to biopsy the brain stem?
Copy !req
347. For the record, that doesn't
count as your inspired idea.
Copy !req
348. It's sort of
where i was heading.
Copy !req
349. You're going
to cut into my head?
Copy !req
350. Why?
Copy !req
351. Stop treating me
like a piece of furniture!
Copy !req
352. I have a right
to know what's going on!
Copy !req
353. Where's that going?
Copy !req
354. Blood in your urine
clogged up your old catheter.
Copy !req
355. Peeing blood?
Copy !req
356. That must be what
the insecure doctor saw.
Copy !req
357. Every new clue gets us
closer to the answer.
Copy !req
358. Damnit.
Copy !req
359. The surgery
will get us more clues.
Copy !req
360. You have visitors.
Copy !req
361. No. Oh, molly.
Copy !req
362. Come in.
Copy !req
363. Daddy!
Daddy!
Copy !req
364. I told you not to bring them.
Copy !req
365. Well, they wanted
to see their father.
Copy !req
366. I can't even hug them.
Copy !req
367. They can handle it.
Copy !req
368. It's going to be all right.
Copy !req
369. You're not
so sure anymore, are you?
Copy !req
370. They must've told you
that it's dangerous.
Copy !req
371. That i could die.
Copy !req
372. And that's why
you brought them in here...
Copy !req
373. i got an a+ on my test.
Copy !req
374. To see me before i die.
Copy !req
375. I love you, daddy.
Copy !req
376. Daddy loves you too.
Copy !req
377. I want
to show you my drawings.
Copy !req
378. Kids just want a dad.
Copy !req
379. Even if he's just a lump.
Copy !req
380. Maybe you should go now.
Copy !req
381. Oh, no.
They can stay, please.
Copy !req
382. Let them stay.
Copy !req
383. Bye, daddy.
Copy !req
384. Bye, daddy.
Copy !req
385. Sorry.
Copy !req
386. You were crying.
Copy !req
387. Damn.
Copy !req
388. We're going
to put you out,
Copy !req
389. just so we can
drill the hole.
Copy !req
390. Oh, that's
very thoughtful of you.
Copy !req
391. Then we'll wake you back up.
Copy !req
392. We'I'll need you to answer some
simple yes or no questions
Copy !req
393. while we're cutting, to make
sure we're not cutting...
Copy !req
394. it seems to be working.
Copy !req
395. Deep breaths.
Copy !req
396. In about ten seconds,
you'll feel lightheaded.
Copy !req
397. And by now...
Copy !req
398. you should be floating high
with lucy in the sky.
Copy !req
399. How come i'm not better?
Copy !req
400. God's not supposed
to work in trial and error.
Copy !req
401. God's mistakes
are well-documented.
Copy !req
402. If he'd done
everything right the first time,
Copy !req
403. there'd have been one plague
and zero great floods.
Copy !req
404. Those were
because of human mistakes.
Copy !req
405. You think your doctor has
an apartment on mount olympus?
Copy !req
406. God put me
with you for a reason.
Copy !req
407. I'm gonna be
all right still, right?
Copy !req
408. I don't know.
Copy !req
409. Lee. You with me now?
Copy !req
410. Easy questions.
Copy !req
411. You'll be done
before you know it.
Copy !req
412. Is this equation correct?
Copy !req
413. What,
so if you make a mistake,
Copy !req
414. i'm not going
to know that anymore?
Copy !req
415. Are these lines parallel?
Copy !req
416. Spatial relationships intact.
Copy !req
417. Take a look at this circle.
Copy !req
418. Is more than half of it shaded?
Copy !req
419. Of course.
Copy !req
420. Don't forget to blink.
Copy !req
421. Is more than
half of the circle shaded?
Copy !req
422. Sorry, yes.
Copy !req
423. Look at me, lee.
Again.
Copy !req
424. Is more than
half of this circle shaded?
Copy !req
425. Blink.
Come on, lee, blink.
Copy !req
426. Foreman, back out.
Copy !req
427. Why can't i blink?
Why can't i blink?
Copy !req
428. Why aren't his eyes moving?
Copy !req
429. Two options:
Copy !req
430. my neurologist screwed up,
Copy !req
431. or else something the hospital
lawyer's going to have
Copy !req
432. to come up with
when you sue us.
Copy !req
433. Blinking and eye movements
are controlled
Copy !req
434. by a small cluster of nerves,
Copy !req
435. just millimeters
from the biopsy site.
Copy !req
436. But he's still in there,
right?
Copy !req
437. I mean,
he just can't communicate?
Copy !req
438. It's possible.
Copy !req
439. Also possible is that the
surgery caused so much swelling
Copy !req
440. in his brain stem,
that he's just gone.
Copy !req
441. He had one way to communicate,
and now that's gone.
Copy !req
442. Well played.
Copy !req
443. Brain biopsy revealed severe
damage to the myelin sheath.
Copy !req
444. Question is, why?
Copy !req
445. Epstein barr,
picorna viruses, malaria.
Copy !req
446. He runs a business,
meets a lot of people,
Copy !req
447. he could've
picked up rotavirus.
Copy !req
448. Did he report
having bloody diarrhea?
Copy !req
449. The wife's not sure,
says he doesn't complain.
Copy !req
450. Did you ask him?
Copy !req
451. We've prioritized.
Copy !req
452. He can only blink, a real
history would've taken weeks.
Copy !req
453. If he had epstein barr,
he'd have belly pains.
Copy !req
454. If he had picorna virus,
he'd have headaches.
Copy !req
455. Five other yes/no questions,
Copy !req
456. and maybe we'd know
what treatment to give.
Copy !req
457. And what treatment
would kill him.
Copy !req
458. Unless he's already dead.
Copy !req
459. Maybe there's another way.
Copy !req
460. Brain computer interface...
Copy !req
461. better known as bci.
Copy !req
462. The goal is to get
you to move that cursor
Copy !req
463. with your mind.
Copy !req
464. When you think "up,"
Copy !req
465. the computer
records the pattern.
Copy !req
466. Think "up" enough times,
Copy !req
467. it eventually
learns what you're thinking.
Copy !req
468. So...
Copy !req
469. start thinking "up."
Copy !req
470. You in there?
Copy !req
471. Are you trying?
Copy !req
472. I called
the ex-ex-ex-wife.
Copy !req
473. She was at a sweat lodge
in new mexico last week.
Copy !req
474. What were you
really doing in new york?
Copy !req
475. You know how you hate it
when i meddle in your lies?
Copy !req
476. I mean your life.
Copy !req
477. Why are you being
so evasive?
Copy !req
478. Unless you have
something to evade.
Copy !req
479. Interesting.
Copy !req
480. This has nothing to do with you,
your ex-wife, or my pain.
Copy !req
481. I was heading to the
down-state correctional facility
Copy !req
482. in fishkill.
Copy !req
483. One of your hookers
arrange a conjugal visit?
Copy !req
484. It's where foreman's brother
is being held.
Copy !req
485. This is going to mean
months of sleepless nights,
Copy !req
486. wondering if i could've
done something differently.
Copy !req
487. Maybe it's not
that i'm sick of house.
Copy !req
488. It's that i'm sick of
being scared out of my mind
Copy !req
489. to go to work every day.
Copy !req
490. Sorry.
Copy !req
491. Did that just...
Copy !req
492. was that you?
Copy !req
493. Are you really in there?
Copy !req
494. I knew you were in there.
Copy !req
495. I was scared.
Copy !req
496. Thank god.
Copy !req
497. I am scared.
Copy !req
498. Molly, i love you so much.
Copy !req
499. Have you had any bloody
diarrhea in the last two weeks?
Copy !req
500. Rotavirus out.
Copy !req
501. Any recent joint pain?
Copy !req
502. Epstein barr's out.
Copy !req
503. Have you traveled
out of the country lately?
Copy !req
504. What about
inside the country?
Copy !req
505. He was in st. Louis.
Copy !req
506. Good.
Copy !req
507. Could be missouri malaria.
Copy !req
508. Let's start treatment.
Copy !req
509. He was... he was there.
Copy !req
510. The machine must not be working.
Copy !req
511. Either that,
or he lied to you about it.
Copy !req
512. People do that sometimes.
Copy !req
513. For example, i just lied to him
about missouri malaria.
Copy !req
514. Did you go to st. Louis?
Copy !req
515. I should've told you.
Copy !req
516. Why didn't i just tell you?
Copy !req
517. Down.
Copy !req
518. When you weren't
in st. Louis for two days,
Copy !req
519. i assume you were getting
some strange for two days.
Copy !req
520. So does she.
Copy !req
521. You have to tell her i wasn't.
Copy !req
522. Amazing.
Copy !req
523. A man who only
has two blips at his disposal
Copy !req
524. can still lie.
Copy !req
525. I'm not lying.
Copy !req
526. If you were getting
some really strange strange,
Copy !req
527. you could've
contracted neurosyphilis.
Copy !req
528. Infection went to your brain,
froze you right up.
Copy !req
529. Good news is
it's treatable.
Copy !req
530. You'll be up and moving in
time to sign the divorce papers.
Copy !req
531. Why would i tell you the
truth about being in st. Louis,
Copy !req
532. and then not
tell you the truth about this?
Copy !req
533. He just admitted he wasn't in
st. Louis in front of his wife,
Copy !req
534. and you think he's lying
when she's not even in here?
Copy !req
535. I'm liking this one
more and more.
Copy !req
536. Don't fire him.
Copy !req
537. Were you out of the state?
Copy !req
538. I never left.
Copy !req
539. were you within 20 miles
of your house?
Copy !req
540. Yes.
Copy !req
541. Were you
within five miles?
Copy !req
542. Yes.
Copy !req
543. Within two miles?
Copy !req
544. Yes.
Copy !req
545. Did you stay
at a hotel?
Copy !req
546. No.
Copy !req
547. You had to sleep somewhere.
Copy !req
548. Your car?
Copy !req
549. No.
Copy !req
550. A friend's house?
Copy !req
551. Yes.
Copy !req
552. Yes.
Copy !req
553. That narrows it down,
Copy !req
554. depending on how popular
you are.
Copy !req
555. Tell the wife to stop crying,
get in here.
Copy !req
556. He says that when he was
supposed to be in st. Louis,
Copy !req
557. he was staying
at a friend's house.
Copy !req
558. Really.
Copy !req
559. Yes.
Copy !req
560. Let's assume that
you believe him for the moment.
Copy !req
561. Name your friends
within two miles.
Copy !req
562. Martin and kim's?
Copy !req
563. No.
Copy !req
564. Guess someone
who doesn't have a wife.
Copy !req
565. Dave?
Copy !req
566. Yes.
Copy !req
567. Got an address?
Copy !req
568. If this is where he got sick,
Copy !req
569. someone else here
should have symptoms.
Copy !req
570. Not if lee was the only one
coming down to the basement.
Copy !req
571. Furnace is rusty,
but no gas leaks.
Copy !req
572. Resumes
and cover letters here...
Copy !req
573. some are weeks old.
Copy !req
574. He's been spending time here
for a while.
Copy !req
575. Business wasn't going good.
Copy !req
576. I didn't want
you and the kids to worry.
Copy !req
577. I was trying
to protect you.
Copy !req
578. Molly...
Copy !req
579. i wish you could hear me.
Copy !req
580. I wish i could
make all of this better.
Copy !req
581. Looks like he temped
a few times.
Copy !req
582. As a janitor.
Copy !req
583. Factory out on route 10.
Copy !req
584. Factory foreman says they
make rechargeable batteries.
Copy !req
585. Mostly for cell phones.
Copy !req
586. Big step down from
running your own business,
Copy !req
587. to sweeping up.
Copy !req
588. Doing what i had to do.
Copy !req
589. Metal filings.
Copy !req
590. Judging by the color,
i'd say cadmium.
Copy !req
591. Which he'd aerosolize
with the broom,
Copy !req
592. then right into his lungs.
Copy !req
593. Heavy metal poisoning...
explains everything.
Copy !req
594. The chelation will scrub the
heavy metals out of your blood.
Copy !req
595. If we are right about the cause,
Copy !req
596. we should see some movement
in about a day or so.
Copy !req
597. Can't put
this thing on turbo?
Copy !req
598. I'm getting
a little anxious in here.
Copy !req
599. Somebody will
be here at all times
Copy !req
600. to, uh, irrigate your eyes,
keep you company.
Copy !req
601. Hopefully, it'll
help make the time go quicker.
Copy !req
602. My eyes
still feel really dry.
Copy !req
603. Thank you...
for thinking "up."
Copy !req
604. For helping me
find you in there.
Copy !req
605. Man, when you moved
that cursor...
Copy !req
606. bought my first girlfriend
a necklace.
Copy !req
607. It was silver.
Copy !req
608. It cost 180 bucks...
had to save for six months.
Copy !req
609. She hated it.
Copy !req
610. Really, seriously?
Copy !req
611. Did you tell this story
to someone who could walk away?
Copy !req
612. Never bought another
girlfriend jewelry again.
Copy !req
613. Until dr. Hadley.
Copy !req
614. You're dating her?
Copy !req
615. You might want to start
all your stories with that.
Copy !req
616. Same thing...
Copy !req
617. she didn't even wear it.
Copy !req
618. The diamond thing, she
was wearing it the other day.
Copy !req
619. If she doesn't like it,
she doesn't like it.
Copy !req
620. Apparently, i suck
at picking out jewelry,
Copy !req
621. but at least
have the guts to tell me.
Copy !req
622. Okay, getting boring again.
Copy !req
623. How long until we know
if this treatment is working?
Copy !req
624. You lied to me.
Copy !req
625. I wasn't having an affair.
Copy !req
626. So we needed money.
Copy !req
627. Who cares?
Copy !req
628. Last time business was slow,
you got migraines every day.
Copy !req
629. Why would you do that to me?
Copy !req
630. I'm sorry, i was...
i was stupid.
Copy !req
631. I was... don't go!
Copy !req
632. Don't!
Damn it, somebody...
Copy !req
633. put "i'm sorry"
on this stupid computer.
Copy !req
634. My eye is killing me.
Copy !req
635. I want to keep my job.
Copy !req
636. Great.
Copy !req
637. All you got to do
is come up with a good idea.
Copy !req
638. How about
we hook the guy's brain
Copy !req
639. into a computer,
so he can communicate?
Copy !req
640. That's a great idea.
Copy !req
641. For the guy who invented the
computer that can read minds.
Copy !req
642. Your idea was
to use his idea.
Copy !req
643. You didn't come up with it.
No one else came up with it.
Copy !req
644. If i didn't
re-establish communication,
Copy !req
645. we never would've found...
Copy !req
646. what's interesting
is why you're here now.
Copy !req
647. Not when i gave you
the ultimatum.
Copy !req
648. Was it something
the patient said?
Copy !req
649. I realized that
what we do here... terrifies me.
Copy !req
650. And...
Copy !req
651. overcoming that
is the only way i can matter.
Copy !req
652. Kutner found
the battery factory.
Copy !req
653. Kutner came up with the cadmium.
Copy !req
654. Maybe you don't matter.
Copy !req
655. I'm going to close your eyes
so you can get some sleep.
Copy !req
656. Hopefully, when you wake up,
we'll see some improvement.
Copy !req
657. Hope that includes
my eye feeling better.
Copy !req
658. Hand me
the flourescein stain.
Copy !req
659. What's that mean?
Copy !req
660. Epithelium looks torn.
Copy !req
661. These drops sting.
Copy !req
662. I'm going to close your
left eye to keep it protected.
Copy !req
663. I'm going to blink your eye
a few times
Copy !req
664. to distribute the dye.
Copy !req
665. Ulcerative keratitis.
Copy !req
666. Means it's
not cadmium poisoning.
Copy !req
667. Which means
you don't know what's wrong.
Copy !req
668. Again.
Copy !req
669. When's the last time
you changed that dressing?
Copy !req
670. Judging by the smell of it,
i'd say never.
Copy !req
671. He's locked-in,
his kidneys blew a fuse,
Copy !req
672. and now his eye is oozing puss.
Copy !req
673. I assume you went
over all of that with your team.
Copy !req
674. I also assume they
didn't have any brilliant ideas,
Copy !req
675. or you wouldn't
still be muttering to yourself.
Copy !req
676. This is going to hurt.
Copy !req
677. The way he's losing his myelin
makes an infection most likely.
Copy !req
678. Could be varicella...
Copy !req
679. road debris
has come to the surface.
Copy !req
680. I'm going
to have to scrub it out.
Copy !req
681. But the initial acyclovir
would've treated that.
Copy !req
682. Which pushes me
towards an autoimmune disease.
Copy !req
683. Like behcet's.
Copy !req
684. Here... this is going
to hurt even more.
Copy !req
685. Take two now, two later.
Copy !req
686. Of course,
if the varicella was resistant,
Copy !req
687. it wouldn't matter
what they did up in middletown.
Copy !req
688. Do an lp.
Copy !req
689. You've been
in the er too long.
Copy !req
690. When the patient
had head trauma,
Copy !req
691. white blood cells only indicate
that he had head trauma.
Copy !req
692. Or you could use the lp
for something useful.
Copy !req
693. If you find polys,
it's varicella.
Copy !req
694. Lymphs, behcet's.
Copy !req
695. Why did i fire you again?
Copy !req
696. You didn't. I quit.
Copy !req
697. You weren't visiting
foreman's brother, either.
Copy !req
698. Busy...
Copy !req
699. kutner's doing an lp,
so i have to focus.
Copy !req
700. I had prison security check
visitor logs, phone records.
Copy !req
701. You've never had any contact
with anyone at fishkill.
Copy !req
702. So, i ask again...
Copy !req
703. what were you
doing up in middletown?
Copy !req
704. You know
what's more interesting
Copy !req
705. than what i was doing?
Copy !req
706. The reason you are so obsessed
with what i was doing.
Copy !req
707. Stop deflecting, house.
Copy !req
708. Says the deflector.
Copy !req
709. The reason i was up there...
Copy !req
710. is the reason
you're scared i was up there.
Copy !req
711. I was checking out
your dirty, little secret.
Copy !req
712. How long have you
been sleeping with her?
Copy !req
713. How did you know?
Copy !req
714. Your only secrets are
the girls you find embarrassing.
Copy !req
715. And the only embarrassing girl
you've met recently
Copy !req
716. is the one at
your brother's cuckoo facility.
Copy !req
717. We've only been out
a few times.
Copy !req
718. She's a caregiver.
Copy !req
719. Like all of
your other failed exes.
Copy !req
720. And someone who
takes care of your brother.
Copy !req
721. Who was the last person
who took care of your brother?
Copy !req
722. You think this is oedipal?
Copy !req
723. Actually,
i was thinking masturbatory.
Copy !req
724. I guess your mom
took care of him first.
Copy !req
725. So, the safe course
is to gouge your eyes out.
Copy !req
726. Lp stands
for lumbar puncture.
Copy !req
727. We use this needle to
collect fluid from your spine.
Copy !req
728. That's a really big needle.
Copy !req
729. You're going to feel some
extreme pressure in your back.
Copy !req
730. I already feel pressure
in my front...
Copy !req
731. my chest hurts.
Copy !req
732. Something's wrong.
Copy !req
733. No, my chest!
Copy !req
734. Something's wrong.
I think i'm hav...
Copy !req
735. oh, god!
Copy !req
736. Call the code.
Copy !req
737. There is no god.
Copy !req
738. You don't know
what's wrong with me.
Copy !req
739. It doesn't seem that way.
Copy !req
740. So am i dead?
Copy !req
741. Not yet.
Copy !req
742. But you're about to be.
Copy !req
743. Okay.
Copy !req
744. Charging... clear.
Copy !req
745. Again... clear.
Copy !req
746. He's back.
Copy !req
747. No. No. Let me go.
Copy !req
748. He can't fix me.
Copy !req
749. I've been here for three days,
Copy !req
750. everything hurts.
Copy !req
751. It's okay, just...
just stop fighting.
Copy !req
752. She's got
to go on with her life.
Copy !req
753. The kids don't need this.
Copy !req
754. I can't do nothing for them...
i can't...
Copy !req
755. scratch this foot... wow,
that really, really itches.
Copy !req
756. So we put in
a temporary pacer.
Copy !req
757. Shut up, shut up.
Copy !req
758. He's trying to talk.
Copy !req
759. Is something bothering you?
Copy !req
760. If there's still tightness
in your chest, it's expected.
Copy !req
761. Is it your eye?
Copy !req
762. Why is he saying "no"
three times?
Copy !req
763. You only asked one question.
Copy !req
764. Maybe he's not saying "no,"
Copy !req
765. maybe he's saying "down."
Copy !req
766. Are you saying
that the pain is lower?
Copy !req
767. How low, your leg?
Copy !req
768. Your foot?
Copy !req
769. Left foot?
Copy !req
770. Check his... let me see now...
Copy !req
771. yeah, his right foot.
Copy !req
772. No bruises,
no rashes, no cuts.
Copy !req
773. Then there should be
no pain.
Copy !req
774. Is there
a tingling sensation?
Copy !req
775. Is it itching?
Copy !req
776. Itchy foot means
liver failure.
Copy !req
777. The liver's fine.
Copy !req
778. His enzymes have been normal
since we admitted him.
Copy !req
779. I didn't say "failing,"
i said "failure."
Copy !req
780. Just like you.
Copy !req
781. Liver's like a cruise ship
taking on water.
Copy !req
782. As it starts to sink,
it sends out an s.o.s.,
Copy !req
783. only instead of radio waves,
it uses enzymes.
Copy !req
784. The more enzymes in the blood,
the worse the liver is.
Copy !req
785. And once the ship has sunk,
Copy !req
786. there's no more s.o.s.
Copy !req
787. You think the liver's fine,
Copy !req
788. but it's already
at the bottom of the sea.
Copy !req
789. So dying liver released
toxins, damaged the nerves,
Copy !req
790. led to locked-in syndrome.
Copy !req
791. Now we just need to know
Copy !req
792. what's causing
the liver failure.
Copy !req
793. Liver, plus eye,
plus kidney...
Copy !req
794. most likely
sclerosing cholangitis.
Copy !req
795. Oh, god, if only
taub had said that,
Copy !req
796. it would've been a happy ending.
Copy !req
797. Do a biopsy to confirm.
Copy !req
798. I'm going
to numb up the area
Copy !req
799. where we'll go in
for the punch biopsy.
Copy !req
800. Where's the new bracelet?
Copy !req
801. She was wearing the bracelet?
Copy !req
802. You didn't notice
that i was wearing it?
Copy !req
803. Because you weren't.
Copy !req
804. He noticed,
and you didn't?
Copy !req
805. If you don't like it,
it's fine, it's not a big deal.
Copy !req
806. I like it,
that's the point.
Copy !req
807. I'd rather have it
at home in the jewelry box
Copy !req
808. than getting peed on at work.
Copy !req
809. You got the patient's urine
on that arm?
Copy !req
810. When i was
putting in the catheter.
Copy !req
811. Why?
Copy !req
812. You've got a rash.
Copy !req
813. The bracelet's real.
Copy !req
814. I figured.
Copy !req
815. So what if the rash
isn't just a rash?
Copy !req
816. What if it's an infection?
Copy !req
817. If there were
rats in that basement,
Copy !req
818. then the liver failure could
be caused by leptospirosis.
Copy !req
819. It transfers through urine.
Copy !req
820. Rat pee to him,
his pee to you.
Copy !req
821. The infection
would need an entry point.
Copy !req
822. Look for
any recent scratches, cuts.
Copy !req
823. Look.
Copy !req
824. Next to his fingernail.
Copy !req
825. The infection
destroyed your liver,
Copy !req
826. which released toxins that
caused the locked-in syndrome.
Copy !req
827. You were dying
of a paper cut.
Copy !req
828. I hope you're right
this time.
Copy !req
829. We found rats
in your buddy dave's basement.
Copy !req
830. Tested positive
for leptospirosis.
Copy !req
831. That means we're
on the right treatment.
Copy !req
832. So...
Copy !req
833. try moving a finger.
Copy !req
834. Your brain needs to get
used to doing its job again.
Copy !req
835. Try harder.
Copy !req
836. I'm sure you've lost hope.
Copy !req
837. I know we've told you
several times
Copy !req
838. that we knew what this was,
Copy !req
839. but this time we're right.
Copy !req
840. Concentrate.
Copy !req
841. Move one finger for me.
Copy !req
842. Welcome back.
Copy !req
843. I did it.
Copy !req
844. Rat pee.
Copy !req
845. Very nice idea.
Copy !req
846. Who came up with it?
Copy !req
847. I did.
Copy !req
848. Good.
Copy !req
849. You okay with him
claiming the credit?
Copy !req
850. It was his idea.
Copy !req
851. He saw the rash...
Copy !req
852. if he did, he'd have hung
a "mission accomplished" banner
Copy !req
853. in my outer office.
Copy !req
854. Don't toy with him.
If you're going to fire him...
Copy !req
855. the fact
that he stole your idea
Copy !req
856. means that he cares enough
to lie.
Copy !req
857. That's all i needed to know.
Copy !req
858. Rat pee.
Copy !req
859. That's a very nice idea.
Copy !req
860. House.
Copy !req
861. You left this in my office.
Copy !req
862. No, i didn't.
Copy !req
863. So either i have
a hole in my pocket...
Copy !req
864. oh, that's right
i remember now,
Copy !req
865. i stole it.
Copy !req
866. Because if you had gone up there
to check out my girlfriend,
Copy !req
867. you wouldn't have come back here
and lied to me about it.
Copy !req
868. You would've
thrown her right in my face.
Copy !req
869. You underestimate
the entertainment value
Copy !req
870. of your obsessions.
Copy !req
871. And then
there were all those calls
Copy !req
872. you weren't taking
in front of me.
Copy !req
873. So i dialed the number
of the calls you weren't taking.
Copy !req
874. You're seeing
a psychiatrist.
Copy !req
875. You had no right
to invade my privacy.
Copy !req
876. Is... is that...?
yeah.
Copy !req
877. It's irony.
Copy !req
878. Hey...
Copy !req
879. god sent you.
Copy !req
880. Suddenly,
you're not so fascinating.
Copy !req
881. You're spying
on your team.
Copy !req
882. Prioritize, wilson.
Copy !req
883. Is that what you really want
to torture me about right now?
Copy !req
884. I don't want
to torture you at all.
Copy !req
885. I think this is a great thing.
Copy !req
886. Not something you have to drive
an hour out of town
Copy !req
887. to shroud in mystery.
Copy !req
888. Whining on someone's couch.
Copy !req
889. That's an excellent use
of my time.
Copy !req
890. Maybe i'll discover that
my childhood wasn't perfect.
Copy !req
891. So your attitude about
therapy clearly hasn't changed.
Copy !req
892. And yet you went.
Copy !req
893. Which leads me to believe
Copy !req
894. that maybe something else
has changed.
Copy !req
895. Maybe you think you can change.
Copy !req
896. I credit cuddy with that.
Copy !req
897. Not much credit to take,
because i'm not going back.
Copy !req
898. Oh, house, please...
Copy !req
899. i assume you went because
you're tired of screwing up
Copy !req
900. every chance
you get at happiness.
Copy !req
901. New contact.
Delete contact.
Copy !req
902. Do not let the fact
that i found out about it...
Copy !req
903. don't beat yourself up.
Copy !req
904. I'm not going back
because it doesn't work.
Copy !req
905. You'll end up alone.
Copy !req
