1. Oh. How the...
Copy !req
2. most people go for the hardwood
or carpeting.
Copy !req
3. I think guitars and garbage
work just as well.
Copy !req
4. Got the urge to play
last night.
Copy !req
5. Had to go all the way back
to my apartment.
Copy !req
6. Thought I'd save
on future trips.
Copy !req
7. Hmm. It's very eco-friendly
of you.
Copy !req
8. How about keeping down
on the noise pollution?
Copy !req
9. 33. You should be flossing
by now.
Copy !req
10. I'm not going to work today.
Copy !req
11. I'm going hunting.
Copy !req
12. After I sleep in.
Copy !req
13. Ah. Ah.
Copy !req
14. Oh.
Copy !req
15. Is it that time
of year again?
Copy !req
16. He's a self-important jerk.
Copy !req
17. He's my friend.
Copy !req
18. He's a self-important jerk.
Copy !req
19. Seems to be
what I'm attracted to.
Copy !req
20. Guy calls you Jim.
Doesn't even know your name.
Copy !req
21. Jim is short for James.
Copy !req
22. Now go away, lim.
Copy !req
23. - Nice shot, Jim.
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
24. Oh, yeah.
I nailed that tree.
Copy !req
25. Maple syrup for dinner.
Copy !req
26. We should have got
a guide.
Copy !req
27. Oh, doesn't count
as new adventure
Copy !req
28. if you have someone holding
your hand.
Copy !req
29. On the other hand,
we are holding weapons
Copy !req
30. and have no idea
what we're doing.
Copy !req
31. Fun.
Well, we need to sneak up on them.
Copy !req
32. I read somewhere that
the native americans say
Copy !req
33. turkeys know
what you're thinking.
Copy !req
34. So I should stop thinking
about german porn.
Copy !req
35. No, no.
That'll lure them closer.
Copy !req
36. Well, it's almost time
anyway.
Copy !req
37. Did you bring the bag?
Copy !req
38. May 30, 2004.
Copy !req
39. 07 a.m.
Copy !req
40. Dr. Wilson informed me
Copy !req
41. that if treatment
didn't go well,
Copy !req
42. my leukemia would give me
only six more months to live.
Copy !req
43. November 30, 2004.
Copy !req
44. Six months later,
I didn't die.
Copy !req
45. As long as I am alive,
Copy !req
46. I will find new and exciting
ways to thank you
Copy !req
47. for giving me another year.
Copy !req
48. Now move very, very far
Copy !req
49. away from there
so that I can be sure
Copy !req
50. and thank you again
next year.
Copy !req
51. Thanks, Jim.
Copy !req
52. All right, let's see how many
more turkeys we can miss.
Copy !req
53. Yeah, this will work.
Copy !req
54. - What the hell?
- God.
Copy !req
55. Sorry.
I don't know what happened.
Copy !req
56. I can't move my arm.
Copy !req
57. Am I having a stroke?
Copy !req
58. I don't know.
Copy !req
59. good news.
Copy !req
60. Head ct doesn't show
any signs of a stroke.
Copy !req
61. So he's gonna be okay,
right?
Copy !req
62. I cannot believe
how much you've grown up
Copy !req
63. in five years.
Copy !req
64. She's...
Copy !req
65. she's not family.
Copy !req
66. Ashley, my girlfriend.
Copy !req
67. New life, new adventures.
Copy !req
68. Ashley, meet Jim.
Copy !req
69. It's good to meet you.
Copy !req
70. So this arm thing,
Copy !req
71. does that mean
his leukemia's back?
Copy !req
72. I checked blood counts
and blood cell morphologies.
Copy !req
73. Everything is normal.
Copy !req
74. So these blood tests,
Copy !req
75. it means it's not cancer
for sure.
Copy !req
76. He said I'm fine.
Copy !req
77. So what do you think it is?
Copy !req
78. Hopefully something
innocuous.
Copy !req
79. There's a doctor I can speak to
who's great...
Copy !req
80. who's great
at diagnosing...
Copy !req
81. what?
Copy !req
82. Sorry, that cold sore,
Copy !req
83. how long
have you had that?
Copy !req
84. Um, two weeks.
I'm sorry.
Copy !req
85. I-I got the call.
Copy !req
86. I didn't have time
to cover it up.
Copy !req
87. What is it, Jim?
Copy !req
88. That cold sore is caused
by a virus.
Copy !req
89. Assuming you guys kiss,
Copy !req
90. the virus could transfer,
infect your spine,
Copy !req
91. and cause the paralysis.
Copy !req
92. It's a disease called
transverse myelitis.
Copy !req
93. And is that good news
or bad news?
Copy !req
94. It's great news.
Copy !req
95. I'll get you a room
and start you on acyclovir.
Copy !req
96. I just had a House moment.
Copy !req
97. Diagnosed transverse myelitis
from a cold sore.
Copy !req
98. How cool is that?
Copy !req
99. Patients really eat
that crap up.
Copy !req
100. It's why I'm loved.
Copy !req
101. What am I doing here?
ultrasound is clear.
Copy !req
102. Which means he's definitely
not pregnant, right?
Copy !req
103. Dios mio, mi estomago!
Copy !req
104. No gall stones.
Copy !req
105. Could be diverticulitis.
Copy !req
106. Have you eaten
any seeds?
Copy !req
107. I'm joining you,
Antonio Aguilar.
Copy !req
108. We'll play in God's
Mariachi band.
Copy !req
109. Draw some blood.
Copy !req
110. The self-important jerk
does not have
Copy !req
111. transverse myelitis.
Copy !req
112. He's got cancer.
Copy !req
113. How do you even—
Copy !req
114. okay.
Copy !req
115. Maybe I paid the redhead
down in records a few bucks
Copy !req
116. to cc me
on all your cases.
Copy !req
117. A few patients die,
you might get sad again.
Copy !req
118. Make a speech
that would end your career.
Copy !req
119. Frankly,
I'm stalking you for you.
Copy !req
120. How long does a simple
blood draw take?
Copy !req
121. Almost finished.
Well, when you're finished
Copy !req
122. almost finishing it,
test it.
Copy !req
123. MI estomago's ripped open
by the hand of god.
Copy !req
124. He spilled my blood.
Copy !req
125. Confusion. Delirium.
Copy !req
126. Why rule out
the hand of god so fast?
Copy !req
127. Your guy's low white count
Copy !req
128. and right arm paralysis
equals a recurrence
Copy !req
129. of his leukemia.
Copy !req
130. Simple math.
Copy !req
131. Did you look past
Copy !req
132. the first page
of the file?
Copy !req
133. No AML cells anywhere.
Copy !req
134. I did the blood smears
myself.
Copy !req
135. It's still cancer.
Copy !req
136. You know how I know?
Copy !req
137. He's got an oncologist
for a doctor.
Copy !req
138. And your magical
leukemia detector
Copy !req
139. is more powerful
than a flow cytometer?
Copy !req
140. I look for zebras
because other doctors
Copy !req
141. rule out all the horses.
Copy !req
142. In this case,
you are those other doctors.
Copy !req
143. You haven't earned
a zebra.
Copy !req
144. 100 bucks.
Are you serious?
Copy !req
145. Look, friends don't diagnose
friends with cancer.
Copy !req
146. I get it.
Copy !req
147. Your problem is
you're not objective.
Copy !req
148. Your caring is clouding
your diagnosis.
Copy !req
149. Just cut that out
Copy !req
150. and you could be
a pretty decent doctor.
Copy !req
151. Just give me
the lactic acid level.
Copy !req
152. 27.
Copy !req
153. The fact that you can't
speak English
Copy !req
154. is not an excuse
for you not being humiliated
Copy !req
155. by what I'm about to say.
Copy !req
156. It's also not an excuse
for you not telling us
Copy !req
157. that you were a tennis pro.
Copy !req
158. If you had,
we wouldn't have wasted our time. Fine.
Copy !req
159. 100 bucks.
Copy !req
160. Is Tucker settling in?
Copy !req
161. Yeah. Already got
his first dose of acyclovir.
Copy !req
162. And don't worry,
Copy !req
163. I ordered his girlfriend
the kiddy meal.
Copy !req
164. Hoo-ah.
Next patient on deck.
Copy !req
165. Del clinton.
Day six of chemo.
Copy !req
166. You just missed
the grandkids.
Copy !req
167. Oh, that's all right.
Copy !req
168. Last time they were here,
they painted my tie.
Copy !req
169. You're almost ready
to go home.
Copy !req
170. You feeling okay?
Copy !req
171. I feel like I felt
after the last four rounds.
Copy !req
172. In oncology, familiar pain
means all is well.
Copy !req
173. So that's good, right?
Copy !req
174. Yeah.
Copy !req
175. I heard Jesse and Zeke
were by earlier.
Copy !req
176. Yeah.
Copy !req
177. Sorry, Del, I gotta run.
Copy !req
178. How are they doing?
Copy !req
179. They—they're fine.
Copy !req
180. No game-winning hits?
No aced report cards?
Copy !req
181. No school plays?
Copy !req
182. I guess not.
Copy !req
183. I thought you had to go.
Copy !req
184. Are you depressed?
Copy !req
185. I have cancer.
Copy !req
186. You've had cancer
for a long time.
Copy !req
187. It's never stopped you
from bragging
Copy !req
188. about the grandkids.
Copy !req
189. I guess I'm feeling a little
more down than usual.
Copy !req
190. Can you give me something?
Copy !req
191. Yeah. I don't want you
to get alarmed,
Copy !req
192. but sometimes depression
can be a sign
Copy !req
193. that something else
is going on.
Copy !req
194. I'm just gonna order
a couple of extra tests.
Copy !req
195. Okay?
Copy !req
196. What's going on?
It's his foot now.
Copy !req
197. It's nothing.
It's not nothing.
Copy !req
198. I just started getting
a little tingling feeling
Copy !req
199. in my foot.
Copy !req
200. Is that bad?
Copy !req
201. Ashley,
it's gonna be okay.
Copy !req
202. It might mean his foot
fell asleep.
Copy !req
203. It might mean nothing.
Copy !req
204. Could you give us
a few minutes?
Copy !req
205. What—why can't you
tell me?
Copy !req
206. Because
you're making him nervous.
Copy !req
207. Just give us a few minutes,
okay, hon?
Copy !req
208. Does this mean
that it's not the disease
Copy !req
209. you thought it was?
Copy !req
210. It means the medicine
I gave you is not working.
Copy !req
211. I just might have
to hit it harder.
Copy !req
212. I'm going to add ribavirin
to your treatment.
Copy !req
213. Jim.
Copy !req
214. Are you sure that
this isn't a recurrence?
Copy !req
215. So the brave face
is just for Ashley.
Copy !req
216. She's young.
She's terrified.
Copy !req
217. She's not really equipped.
- Don't worry.
Copy !req
218. Once you've had cancer,
Copy !req
219. recurrence is your biggest fear.
I get it.
Copy !req
220. I've looked at this thing
every which way there is.
Copy !req
221. That's not
what's happening here.
Copy !req
222. Can you call my daughter
and ask her to come down?
Copy !req
223. You can't do it?
Copy !req
224. She hasn't exactly
been talking to me
Copy !req
225. since I got together
with Ashley.
Copy !req
226. I'd really like her
to be here.
Copy !req
227. Of course.
Copy !req
228. Exactly how serious
does it have to be
Copy !req
229. to justify you coming
to see your father?
Copy !req
230. No. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
231. I just—I'd rather
you regretted coming
Copy !req
232. than regretted not coming.
Copy !req
233. Thanks, emily.
Copy !req
234. How's Tucker?
Copy !req
235. Oh, well, he's made a mess
of his personal life.
Copy !req
236. But physically,
I think he's gonna be fine.
Copy !req
237. Transverse myelitis.
Copy !req
238. What does House think?
Copy !req
239. What is this?
Copy !req
240. Is House my overseer now?
Copy !req
241. No, it's just not always
a good idea
Copy !req
242. for doctors to treat
Copy !req
243. their friends,
that's all.
Copy !req
244. Well, House has got
100 bucks on cancer.
Copy !req
245. So unless you want in
on the action...
Copy !req
246. um, is Bonnie
still a realtor?
Copy !req
247. As far as I know.
Copy !req
248. Do you mind
if I call her?
Copy !req
249. I'm, uh, looking
for a new place.
Copy !req
250. I'm moving in with Lucas.
Copy !req
251. it wasn't the tennis.
Copy !req
252. You're moving in
with Lucas?
Copy !req
253. Yes.
Copy !req
254. You're Bonnie's friend.
Copy !req
255. You know
how to reach her.
Copy !req
256. And yet instead
of calling her,
Copy !req
257. you come and seek
my permission.
Copy !req
258. You want my blessing,
Copy !req
259. and implicitly,
House's blessing.
Copy !req
260. I don't need
House's blessing.
Copy !req
261. Good.
Copy !req
262. So when will he be able
to move his arm again?
Copy !req
263. Should be soon.
Copy !req
264. Started smoking again?
Copy !req
265. No.
Copy !req
266. What—what does that mean?
Is it bad that he's coughing?
Copy !req
267. Hi, dad.
Hey.
Copy !req
268. Melissa, hey.
Copy !req
269. I didn't know
you were coming.
Copy !req
270. I was at Mom's house
Copy !req
271. when Dr. Wilson called.
Copy !req
272. I can go
if it's gonna be weird.
Copy !req
273. No, no. Stay.
It's fine.
Copy !req
274. Hi.
How are you?
Copy !req
275. Is he okay?
Copy !req
276. Yeah. He's okay.
Copy !req
277. I'm not a big fan
of this coughing though.
Copy !req
278. You must be Ashley.
Copy !req
279. Hi.
Copy !req
280. Hey, are you okay?
Copy !req
281. do you think
this cold sore thing
Copy !req
282. could've caused this?
Copy !req
283. No. Whatever's causing this
Copy !req
284. is affecting more than
his nerves.
Copy !req
285. I need a crash cart
in here!
Copy !req
286. Don't you guys have
a dying mexican crooner
Copy !req
287. to attend to?
He isn't dying anymore.
Copy !req
288. Found out
he was on a popcorn diet.
Copy !req
289. Eating ten bags
of microwave popcorn a day.
Copy !req
290. Huffing the fumes
scared his lungs.
Copy !req
291. Wow, that's...
very strange.
Copy !req
292. Where's House?
Copy !req
293. Performing his ritual
"hiding from Cuddy
Copy !req
294. to avoid getting
a new case" dance.
Copy !req
295. It's sort of a jazz-fusion
type of thing.
Copy !req
296. He's probably eating lunch
in the morgue.
Copy !req
297. I can page him to your office
if you want. Actually...
Copy !req
298. maybe it would be better
if I talked to you guys alone.
Copy !req
299. House and I have a bet
about one of my patients.
Copy !req
300. You guys mind making him
100 bucks poorer?
Copy !req
301. 43-year-old male
in remission from leukemia
Copy !req
302. presents with left arm paralysis
and trouble breathing.
Copy !req
303. I assume House's money
is on cancer.
Copy !req
304. Thanks.
That's very helpful.
Copy !req
305. Subdural hematoma
would explain—
Copy !req
306. ct ruled it out.
Copy !req
307. I thought it was tm
so I started him on antivirals,
Copy !req
308. but he got worse.
Copy !req
309. Bacterial infection?
Copy !req
310. Bacteria would move
much faster than this.
Copy !req
311. He'd be dead already.
Copy !req
312. Could be fungal.
Copy !req
313. Fungal infection would explain
his breathing problem,
Copy !req
314. but not his "unable to move
his arm" problem.
Copy !req
315. Actually,
if aspergillus fungus balls
Copy !req
316. took root in his lungs
and spread to his spine,
Copy !req
317. it would explain both.
Copy !req
318. Thanks.
Copy !req
319. The treatment involves riddling
the infected area
Copy !req
320. with bb-sized pellets
of antifungal meds.
Copy !req
321. I assume you don't just
load up the 12-gauge
Copy !req
322. and pepper me
with birdshot.
Copy !req
323. No. We have a slightly
more humane delivery system.
Copy !req
324. But we do have to open you up.
It is surgery.
Copy !req
325. And like any operation,
Copy !req
326. there are risks.
Copy !req
327. What do you think,
honey?
Copy !req
328. I-I don't know.
Copy !req
329. I mean, is surgery
really such a good idea?
Copy !req
330. He just seems so sick.
Copy !req
331. I just—
Copy !req
332. you should do
whatever you think is best.
Copy !req
333. Is this the only way
Copy !req
334. to go after this thing?
Copy !req
335. Because of the rapid
progression,
Copy !req
336. I don't think we have time
to test or try ivs.
Copy !req
337. And he's strong enough
to endure anesthesia.
Copy !req
338. Definitely.
Copy !req
339. I want you there
during the surgery.
Copy !req
340. Of course.
Copy !req
341. You gotta do it.
Copy !req
342. Good. Dr. Chase
will be in here soon
Copy !req
343. to get you set for the O.R.
Copy !req
344. Page Dr. Chase to Tucker's room
for a surgery consult.
Copy !req
345. And can you get me—
Copy !req
346. Uh, Mr. Koplovitz wants
to talk to you.
Copy !req
347. Is everything all right?
Copy !req
348. He wanted to talk
to his doctor,
Copy !req
349. not his doctor's assistant.
Copy !req
350. Oh, and House is looking
for you.
Copy !req
351. What did you tell him?
That you were in the clinic.
Copy !req
352. I figure that gives you
about ten minutes.
Copy !req
353. Here.
Mr. Koplovitz's chart. Go.
Copy !req
354. Hello, Saul.
Copy !req
355. I heard you were looking
for me.
Copy !req
356. I'm very tired.
Copy !req
357. But I can't sleep.
Copy !req
358. Today's your lucky day.
Copy !req
359. I happen to be
a sleep specialist.
Copy !req
360. Thanks, Doc.
Copy !req
361. Hey. Can a guy get
a little privacy?
Copy !req
362. Nice hiding spot.
Copy !req
363. Actually, it's perfect.
Copy !req
364. It allows me to hide from Cuddy
and find you.
Copy !req
365. What did she want?
Copy !req
366. She was checking up on Tucker
thanks to you.
Copy !req
367. That's it?
Copy !req
368. Like what?
Something about you?
Copy !req
369. Something you could interpret
as being about you?
Copy !req
370. An anagram maybe?
Copy !req
371. It'd be great if you could play
hide and seek somewhere else.
Copy !req
372. My patient just—
no problem.
Copy !req
373. Just give me the 100 bucks
you owe me and I'm gone.
Copy !req
374. Tucker doesn't have cancer.
Copy !req
375. He doesn't have
a ball of fungus
Copy !req
376. in his lungs either.
Copy !req
377. Next time you want
to use my team,
Copy !req
378. I suggest
you at least leave a tip.
Copy !req
379. I'm late for surgery.
Copy !req
380. Ah, your assistant said
you'd be in here.
Copy !req
381. I talked to Bonnie.
Copy !req
382. Let's take this outside.
Copy !req
383. Mr. Koplovitz
just got to sleep.
Copy !req
384. Oh, sorry. She found us
this fantastic loft.
Copy !req
385. Outside. I mean,
it's not a loft really,
Copy !req
386. it's just more urban.
Copy !req
387. Not that I'm urban,
but I used to be.
Copy !req
388. It's got two bedrooms.
Got wonderful views.
Copy !req
389. It's a really great place.
Copy !req
390. Procedure should take
about an hour.
Copy !req
391. I'll be observing
the entire time.
Copy !req
392. Thanks.
Copy !req
393. Maybe it'd be better
if you stayed with Ashley.
Copy !req
394. She's more scared
than I am.
Copy !req
395. Well, she's...
Copy !req
396. at her age...
Copy !req
397. she's not supposed to be dealing
with issues of life and death.
Copy !req
398. Wasn't what I was planning
when I went after her.
Copy !req
399. Why did you leave Melissa?
Copy !req
400. We got married young.
We...
Copy !req
401. I'm not sure.
Copy !req
402. There's nothing
to talk about.
Copy !req
403. Why are you doing surgery
when I need you
Copy !req
404. finding me a new case?
Copy !req
405. You don't want
a new case.
Copy !req
406. Oh, right.
Copy !req
407. Guess I'm here for Wilson.
Copy !req
408. Obviously
you didn't tell me
Copy !req
409. that Cuddy was moving in
with Lucas
Copy !req
410. 'cause you were
protecting me.
Copy !req
411. Which is odd
since I told you
Copy !req
412. that I'm fine
with their relationship.
Copy !req
413. So obviously,
Copy !req
414. you question
one of those assumptions
Copy !req
415. or you have an issue
with logic.
Copy !req
416. Yes, you're fine
with them dating.
Copy !req
417. But moving in together
Copy !req
418. is a whole other level
of commitment.
Copy !req
419. This is
the 21st century, Wilson.
Copy !req
420. I realize
that the logical course
Copy !req
421. of any adult relationship
Copy !req
422. could one day lead
to fornication.
Copy !req
423. Although, the fact
that she wants to buy a loft
Copy !req
424. could actually mean
that their relationship
Copy !req
425. is not as serious
as I thought.
Copy !req
426. Oh, for god's sake,
House,
Copy !req
427. don't do this to yourself.
Copy !req
428. It's a loft.
Copy !req
429. It has no deeper meaning
Copy !req
430. than open-space
living arrangement.
Copy !req
431. If you bought
into her diatribe
Copy !req
432. about rediscovering
her lost city girl roots.
Copy !req
433. And two bedrooms.
Copy !req
434. It just reeks
of commitment issues.
Copy !req
435. Yeah. Or she has a baby.
Copy !req
436. This is classic
mid-life Cuddy crisis.
Copy !req
437. This is her version
of a two-seat convertible.
Copy !req
438. Yeah, clearly you're fine
with it.
Copy !req
439. Wilson,
he's got global lung damage.
Copy !req
440. Means it's not fungal.
It's pcp pneumonia.
Copy !req
441. Hmm.
Copy !req
442. Obviously something
Copy !req
443. is knocking out
his immune system.
Copy !req
444. Three options.
Hiv. Acquired scid.
Copy !req
445. Or my personal favorite,
cancer.
Copy !req
446. I'm sure you'll test
for all three.
Copy !req
447. 62-year-old
african-american man
Copy !req
448. with lymphoma
now in remission.
Copy !req
449. I did a ct and found
a small lesion
Copy !req
450. on the upper lobe
of his left lung.
Copy !req
451. If he's in remission,
Copy !req
452. why did you bother
scanning him?
Copy !req
453. During a routine follow-up,
Copy !req
454. I realized the patient
was depressed.
Copy !req
455. Wow.
That's quite a call.
Copy !req
456. Thanks.
The treatment indicate—
Copy !req
457. Oh, I'm sorry.
Copy !req
458. I didn't realize you were
in the middle of something.
Copy !req
459. It's a conference room
Copy !req
460. with glass walls.
Copy !req
461. You thought I'd be alone?
Copy !req
462. Your patient has cancer.
Copy !req
463. Not that guy.
Copy !req
464. He probably also
has cancer.
Copy !req
465. And he's probably also
your buddy.
Copy !req
466. Thought you'd want
to know.
Copy !req
467. 'Cause you owe me
100 bucks.
Copy !req
468. You have acute
lymphoblastic leukemia.
Copy !req
469. A.l.l.
Copy !req
470. So it is
a recurrence.
Copy !req
471. No. It's different.
It's a second leukemia.
Copy !req
472. Probably caused
by the chemotherapy
Copy !req
473. we gave him
five years ago.
Copy !req
474. That's why you didn't
see it.
Copy !req
475. Maybe they can rename it
ironic leukemia.
Copy !req
476. This is not the end.
Copy !req
477. Tests show that the cancer
is limited to your brain.
Copy !req
478. That's good news.
Copy !req
479. How can cancer in his head
be good news?
Copy !req
480. The blood brain barrier
separates
Copy !req
481. the blood in your head
from the blood in your body.
Copy !req
482. Keeps the cancer
bottled up.
Copy !req
483. We can go for a cure.
Copy !req
484. So give me the numbers.
What are we looking at?
Copy !req
485. 90% chance of cure.
Copy !req
486. Really?
Copy !req
487. What if we're in the 10%?
Copy !req
488. Steady decline.
Copy !req
489. But six months
of a good quality life.
Copy !req
490. does he have to go through
Copy !req
491. another bone marrow transplant?
No.
Copy !req
492. Chemotherapy.
Copy !req
493. We can go at this
with drugs alone.
Copy !req
494. When do we get started?
Copy !req
495. We begin by surgically
planting a shunt
Copy !req
496. so we can get the drugs
directly into your brain.
Copy !req
497. I already booked the o.r.
Copy !req
498. you're the only one
who can make cancer
Copy !req
499. sound like good news.
Copy !req
500. We get it out of your head
and you walk out of here
Copy !req
501. paralysis gone
and cancer-free.
Copy !req
502. We also need you to sign
a health care proxy.
Copy !req
503. If something goes wrong
in surgery,
Copy !req
504. someone needs to be appointed
to make decisions for you.
Copy !req
505. What are the chances
of that happening?
Copy !req
506. Very remote.
Copy !req
507. I think maybe Melissa
should be my proxy.
Copy !req
508. What?
No.
Copy !req
509. coming through.
House got a new case.
Copy !req
510. Revised o.r. schedule.
Sorry, Wilson, had to bump you.
Copy !req
511. It's not like your guy's
bleeding out of his eyes.
Copy !req
512. House, your guy's not bleeding
out of his eyes either.
Copy !req
513. The nurse who books the o.r.
thinks he is.
Copy !req
514. Your case is no more urgent
than mine.
Copy !req
515. Yeah, but you're way
more patient.
Copy !req
516. It's okay.
Copy !req
517. You can talk
about the—the paperwork
Copy !req
518. in the prep area.
Copy !req
519. You trust her more
than me.
Copy !req
520. About this, yes.
Copy !req
521. You've been through
the good stuff,
Copy !req
522. but Melissa's been
to hell and back with me.
Copy !req
523. She gives me the best shot
of getting through this.
Copy !req
524. You still love her.
Don't be silly.
Copy !req
525. I love you.
Copy !req
526. Please...
Copy !req
527. don't make this
into more than it is.
Copy !req
528. Okay, anything?
No.
Copy !req
529. Can you feel this?
No.
Copy !req
530. How about here?
No.
Copy !req
531. Where is everybody?
Copy !req
532. Melissa and emily
went downstairs
Copy !req
533. to get some breakfast.
Ashley?
Copy !req
534. She had work to do.
Copy !req
535. I thought she was off today.
Copy !req
536. Well, she didn't really
have work to do.
Copy !req
537. She was just pissed
Copy !req
538. so she pretended
to have work to do.
Copy !req
539. I let her pretend.
Copy !req
540. Okay.
Copy !req
541. Move your fingers.
Copy !req
542. The chemo's not working.
Copy !req
543. Does that mean
it's not cancer?
Copy !req
544. No. It means the chemo
Copy !req
545. from your first round
of treatment
Copy !req
546. has made the leukemia
resistant.
Copy !req
547. So I'm in the 10%
that don't get cured.
Copy !req
548. Maybe not.
Copy !req
549. We just removed a screw
from a guy's lung.
Copy !req
550. And the weird thing is
he didn't get better.
Copy !req
551. Any idea what that means?
Copy !req
552. It means
you're not listening to me.
Copy !req
553. No. It means I'm ignoring you
to make a point.
Copy !req
554. There is a difference.
Copy !req
555. The problem
with that technique
Copy !req
556. is I have no idea
what point you're making.
Copy !req
557. That your idea is implicitly
not worth responding to.
Copy !req
558. Doubling your patient's
chemo dose is stupid.
Copy !req
559. Damn. Now it's explicit.
Copy !req
560. It could swamp out
the resistance
Copy !req
561. of the cancer cells.
Copy !req
562. The fact that it
theoretically should work
Copy !req
563. doesn't make it
any less stupid.
Copy !req
564. Of course it does.
It's exactly what you would do.
Copy !req
565. I'm me. You're you.
Copy !req
566. And a table is a table.
Copy !req
567. And chemo is poison.
Copy !req
568. And double chemo
is double poison.
Copy !req
569. I can handle it
when things go wrong.
Copy !req
570. You can't.
Copy !req
571. And things could go very,
very wrong.
Copy !req
572. I can handle it.
Copy !req
573. Sounds pretty dangerous.
Copy !req
574. It is.
Copy !req
575. What do you think, mel?
Copy !req
576. I think
you should call Ashley.
Copy !req
577. You're my family.
Copy !req
578. I'm sorry I forgot that.
Copy !req
579. I think
that you should try
Copy !req
580. whatever could keep you
with us longer.
Copy !req
581. Yeah.
Copy !req
582. Look.
Copy !req
583. I can move them.
Copy !req
584. Hey! Thank you.
Copy !req
585. What is it, Jim?
Copy !req
586. I'm gonna need to run
some tests.
Copy !req
587. Intraepidermal
superficial bullae.
Copy !req
588. Could be pemphigus.
Or it could be from the fire.
Copy !req
589. Either way, he's dead.
Copy !req
590. We can't stop
the oozing.
Copy !req
591. Don't care.
Copy !req
592. I'm here because it's 1:15
Copy !req
593. and Wilson started testing
at 12:45.
Copy !req
594. Which means...
the cancer's gone.
Copy !req
595. But over half his hepatocytes
are dead.
Copy !req
596. In only 24 hours?
Copy !req
597. He needs a new liver.
Copy !req
598. Look on the bright side.
Copy !req
599. You can publish the results
of this case study.
Copy !req
600. No one will ever double
the dose again.
Copy !req
601. The double dose of chemo
got rid of your cancer.
Copy !req
602. But it also trashed
your liver.
Copy !req
603. If I don't find you
a new liver,
Copy !req
604. you've only got
about 24 hours left.
Copy !req
605. So what do we do now?
Copy !req
606. Your father's been moved
to the top
Copy !req
607. of the transplant list.
Copy !req
608. But all we really
can do is wait.
Copy !req
609. That's it? We wait?
Copy !req
610. Tell me something
that I can do.
Copy !req
611. I'm sorry, mel.
Copy !req
612. You and emily don't match
Tuck's blood type.
Copy !req
613. And neither does Ashley.
Copy !req
614. So a live liver donation
is out.
Copy !req
615. The best thing to do
is just what you've been doing.
Copy !req
616. Be together.
Copy !req
617. Hope he already told you
that you're gonna die.
Copy !req
618. 'Cause it's gonna make
Copy !req
619. what I'm about to say
a lot more relevant.
Copy !req
620. House, I know it's raining
out there in the hallway,
Copy !req
621. but—
I was just in the ER testing my patient
Copy !req
622. for autonomic dysfunction.
Copy !req
623. It's the only department
with a shower big enough
Copy !req
624. for the whole team,
plus the cardiac monitors,
Copy !req
625. plus me.
Copy !req
626. Anyway, relevant part,
Copy !req
627. we're just wheeling
the guy out,
Copy !req
628. trauma came in.
Copy !req
629. Motorcycle versus semi.
Copy !req
630. How bad?
Bad for the motorcycle.
Copy !req
631. Good for your liver.
Copy !req
632. Blood type's a match.
Copy !req
633. Why wasn't I paged?
Copy !req
634. Because there's a problem.
Copy !req
635. No organ donor card.
Copy !req
636. Dead guy's sister
is next of kin.
Copy !req
637. She's refusing to allow
the donation.
Copy !req
638. Where is she?
20 minutes away.
Copy !req
639. How do you get the call
that your brother's dead
Copy !req
640. and then run out the door?
Copy !req
641. "Oh—oh—oh,
that reminds me,
Copy !req
642. i-I had dry cleaning
to pick up."
Copy !req
643. Did Cuddy buy the place?
Copy !req
644. Not yet. You okay?
Copy !req
645. Just making conversation.
Copy !req
646. Yours was getting boring.
Copy !req
647. What are you planning?
Copy !req
648. I'm not planning anything.
Copy !req
649. And I don't believe you.
Copy !req
650. How are you gonna punish her
for dating Lucas?
Copy !req
651. Okay, now this conversation
is getting boring.
Copy !req
652. Are you really okay?
No!
Copy !req
653. I am not okay.
Not even close.
Copy !req
654. Wow. Okay.
See, that's very adult of you.
Copy !req
655. No, it isn't.
Copy !req
656. It's just me accepting
the fact
Copy !req
657. that there's nothing I can do
and moving on.
Copy !req
658. Which is, I think,
the definition of adulthood.
Copy !req
659. Well, if it is,
being a kid is a lot more fun.
Copy !req
660. Showtime.
Copy !req
661. I didn't speak to him
for years.
Copy !req
662. But when my parents died,
Copy !req
663. at their funeral,
Copy !req
664. we made peace.
Copy !req
665. Our parents
must've blessed it.
Copy !req
666. And I'm sure they would
want him to do good
Copy !req
667. with his last act
in this world.
Copy !req
668. They wanted us
to be friends.
Copy !req
669. Our relationship
wasn't strong,
Copy !req
670. but it was growing.
Copy !req
671. If I allow you
to defile his body,
Copy !req
672. it will destroy
that bond.
Copy !req
673. The itai will be harmed.
Copy !req
674. It will save
my patient's life.
Copy !req
675. What if I told you
that he wasn't dead?
Copy !req
676. Are you saying my brother
is still alive?
Copy !req
677. I'm saying you're being
an idiot.
Copy !req
678. But I don't have time
to talk you out
Copy !req
679. of your religion
Copy !req
680. so I'm sTuck with giving you
a technicality
Copy !req
681. that will let you justify
doing the right thing.
Copy !req
682. What if his last
living act
Copy !req
683. was to donate a part of his liver?
Copy !req
684. Not the whole thing,
Copy !req
685. just one small piece.
Copy !req
686. Then I'm not defiling
a dead body.
Copy !req
687. House.
Copy !req
688. The last generous act
of a living person.
Copy !req
689. House, it's too late.
Copy !req
690. The liver started
to degrade.
Copy !req
691. It's no longer viable
for transplant.
Copy !req
692. Well played.
Copy !req
693. Religion just killed
another person.
Copy !req
694. It's not fair, Jim.
Copy !req
695. You just helped me
get my family back together.
Copy !req
696. I'm—I'm not ready.
Copy !req
697. I would've had six more months
with them
Copy !req
698. if you hadn't given me
that extra chemo.
Copy !req
699. Now I have less
than one day.
Copy !req
700. I'm sorry.
We knew the risks.
Copy !req
701. I don't want
to lose them again.
Copy !req
702. I can't lose them again.
Copy !req
703. There's nothing more
we can do.
Copy !req
704. Five years ago,
when I needed a transfusion,
Copy !req
705. you used your own blood.
Copy !req
706. We have the same type.
Copy !req
707. Which means you can give me
a part of your liver.
Copy !req
708. I'm your doctor.
You're my friend.
Copy !req
709. Should I die because
you're also my doctor?
Copy !req
710. Of course not.
Fine then. You're fired.
Copy !req
711. Now you're just my friend.
Copy !req
712. Now you can do what's right.
Copy !req
713. Tucker, it's...
Copy !req
714. I can't.
Copy !req
715. Late night
with the pigeon sisters?
Copy !req
716. Every now and again,
I'd like to come home
Copy !req
717. without getting
interrogated.
Copy !req
718. Someone's cranky.
Copy !req
719. And late.
Copy !req
720. Where were you?
Copy !req
721. Just getting a drink.
Copy !req
722. What—why are all
my frozen dinners
Copy !req
723. thawing on the counter?
Copy !req
724. I needed room
for my margarita jell-o shots.
Copy !req
725. I use test tubes as bottles
Copy !req
726. so they'll be shaped
like my cane.
Copy !req
727. Why'd you go out
drinking alone
Copy !req
728. when you got such
great company here?
Copy !req
729. Tucker wants me to donate
a lobe of my liver to him.
Copy !req
730. And you were out drinking.
Copy !req
731. So you're actually
considering this?
Copy !req
732. Yeah. I was out marinating
my liver in alcohol
Copy !req
733. to get it ready
for the transplant. Yeah.
Copy !req
734. Your mouth says no,
Copy !req
735. but your pathetic attempt
at a deflection
Copy !req
736. has guilt written
all over it.
Copy !req
737. It's my fault.
It is my fault!
Copy !req
738. I gave him too much chemo.
Copy !req
739. You cured his cancer.
Copy !req
740. And killed him in the process.
Quibbles.
Copy !req
741. He's had
Copy !req
742. a predictable complication.
Copy !req
743. Surprise. Bad things happen
to people who are sick.
Copy !req
744. Doesn't make you
responsible.
Copy !req
745. Oh, no—not legally.
Ethically.
Copy !req
746. Ethically!
A table is a table.
Copy !req
747. Don't be a doormat,
Wilson.
Copy !req
748. Boy, you are—
you willfully ruined my food
Copy !req
749. and have taken over
my living room
Copy !req
750. because you already think
I'm a doormat!
Copy !req
751. You know what...
Copy !req
752. you're wrong.
Copy !req
753. You—clean up your stuff
and get out.
Copy !req
754. You're wrong.
Copy !req
755. How's Tucker?
Copy !req
756. Um, still not dancing.
Copy !req
757. But scans came in
on del clinton.
Copy !req
758. It's good news.
Thanks.
Copy !req
759. Let me know as soon as Tucker
takes a turn for the worse.
Copy !req
760. I want to be there.
Copy !req
761. See that small spot
at the top of the lung?
Copy !req
762. That was then.
This is now.
Copy !req
763. Spot's gone.
Copy !req
764. That tiny little spot, huh?
Yeah.
Copy !req
765. It's not too impressive,
is it?
Copy !req
766. That little dot
could've killed me?
Copy !req
767. Yeah.
Copy !req
768. Fortunately,
we caught it early.
Copy !req
769. It's gonna be okay.
Copy !req
770. That's amazing.
Copy !req
771. You got all this off me
not talking about my grandkids.
Copy !req
772. Thanks, Bonnie.
Copy !req
773. Just gonna have
to sit tight
Copy !req
774. for awhile.
Copy !req
775. Okay.
Copy !req
776. I put an offer
on the loft.
Copy !req
777. Seller turned me down.
Copy !req
778. I offered exactly
what a similar unit
Copy !req
779. sold for three months ago.
Copy !req
780. I want to donate a lobe
of my liver to Tucker.
Copy !req
781. That's insane.
Copy !req
782. I'm donating
a small portion of—
Copy !req
783. you have hundreds
of patients.
Copy !req
784. And until I run out
of excess organs,
Copy !req
785. why shouldn't I do everything
I can to help them?
Copy !req
786. Because you're a doctor,
not a donor.
Copy !req
787. Why did you make me
the head of oncology?
Copy !req
788. Not because you have
the most organs.
Copy !req
789. You're thoughtful,
caring.
Copy !req
790. Yeah, caring.
Copy !req
791. By your own criteria
a strength and not a weakness.
Copy !req
792. This is coming out of guilt.
Copy !req
793. This is coming out
of friendship.
Copy !req
794. I have a friend
who's about to die.
Copy !req
795. And I have the opportunity
to save his life.
Copy !req
796. Okay.
Copy !req
797. Call me a doormat—
get it all out of your system—
Copy !req
798. but I'm doing it.
Copy !req
799. Why?
Copy !req
800. He's my friend.
Copy !req
801. I'm your friend.
Copy !req
802. All the pain pills
I've taken.
Copy !req
803. What if I need your liver?
Copy !req
804. Right. How selfish of me
not to have considered
Copy !req
805. your possible
future needs.
Copy !req
806. They're all dying.
Copy !req
807. They're all
your friends.
Copy !req
808. I'm not here
for an argument, House.
Copy !req
809. No. Right.
That's room 12A.
Copy !req
810. So why are you here?
Copy !req
811. Want to make sure that I called
the moving van?
Copy !req
812. No. The operation
is in two hours,
Copy !req
813. and I'd like you
to be there with me.
Copy !req
814. No.
Copy !req
815. What—why?
Copy !req
816. Because if you die,
I'm alone.
Copy !req
817. Thanks, Jim.
Copy !req
818. How you feeling?
Copy !req
819. Can't complain considering
if it weren't for you,
Copy !req
820. I'd be dead—twice.
Copy !req
821. You?
I feel good.
Copy !req
822. Sending out your laundry?
Copy !req
823. Going to rehab.
Some place up in katonah.
Copy !req
824. Up by your new House,
not near your old House.
Copy !req
825. Easier on Ashley.
Copy !req
826. I see.
Copy !req
827. I was thrilled to get
the family back together
Copy !req
828. and Melissa's great
in a crisis,
Copy !req
829. but the person you want
when you're dying
Copy !req
830. isn't the same as the person
you want when you're living.
Copy !req
831. Hi, Jim.
Copy !req
832. Actually, it's James.
Copy !req
833. You ready to admit that
he's a self-important jerk?
Copy !req
834. I still feel good
about what I did.
Copy !req
835. You don't feel angry?
Copy !req
836. Ah. I'm a little
disappointed.
Copy !req
837. Disappointment is anger
for wimps.
Copy !req
838. You don't have to be so gentle
about everything.
Copy !req
839. It's okay to get angry
once in a while.
Copy !req
840. You can't change
a table.
Copy !req
841. Actually, you can.
Copy !req
842. Just need a coat of paint
and the guts to use it.
Copy !req
843. Bonnie.
Copy !req
844. Bonnie told me
what Cuddy bid.
Copy !req
845. You're gonna outbid her?
Copy !req
846. We do need a bigger
refrigerator.
Copy !req
847. She hurt my friend.
She should be punished.
Copy !req
848. You got mad.
Copy !req
849. I'm proud of you.
Copy !req
850. Cuddy won't share
that sentiment.
Copy !req
851. How are you going
to explain it to her?
Copy !req
852. I'm changing our address
to a p.o. box.
Copy !req
853. She'll find out
eventually.
Copy !req
854. A problem delayed
Copy !req
855. is a problem denied.
Copy !req
856. Bonnie. I'll take it.
Copy !req
857. Baby steps.
