1
00:00:02,202 --> 00:00:09,575
It's all about the tongue, man. You stick it in their mouth, but not all the way.

2
00:00:09,575 --> 00:00:12,577
- They like that? 
- Dude, they love it.

3
00:00:14,381 --> 00:00:16,975
- What are you doing? 
- Climbing.

4
00:00:19,953 --> 00:00:25,016
Just deep enough to lick her teeth: slow, one at a time, like you're painting them.

5
00:00:25,016 --> 00:00:28,060
This girl Rachel, she's a junior.

6
00:00:28,060 --> 00:00:31,564
- She's experienced.
- Mom says I gotta be home by 5:00.

7
00:00:31,564 --> 00:00:36,068
Just chill, okay? And hop the fence before someone sees you.

8
00:00:43,276 --> 00:00:45,578
Are you sure this is okay? 


9
00:00:45,578 --> 00:00:52,948
Dave's mom's a realtor. If it's for sale and empty, it's a clubhouse.
 And if you say anything, you're dead.

10
00:00:52,948 --> 00:00:58,252
I told them you were cool. These are very serious dudes.

11
00:01:00,326 --> 00:01:02,385
Come on.

12
00:01:03,463 --> 00:01:05,761
Cub Scout meeting's down the street, boys.

13
00:01:09,369 --> 00:01:11,667
What a loser. Lame.

14
00:01:11,667 --> 00:01:14,764
- Gabe's cool, man. He's one of us.
- He better be.

15
00:01:19,145 --> 00:01:21,272
Uh, I'm not thirsty.

16
00:01:23,483 --> 00:01:26,247
- What's this?
- Club business, little man.

17
00:01:26,247 --> 00:01:28,981
- What shall we ask?
- Put your hands on.

18
00:01:31,257 --> 00:01:36,695
O dark spirit, will any of us die in the year to come?

19
00:01:41,935 --> 00:01:47,271
- You're moving it.
- Put your hands back. Now.

20
00:01:52,812 --> 00:01:54,973
Who among us will die?

21
00:02:02,722 --> 00:02:03,442
"G"...

22
00:02:08,528 --> 00:02:09,248
"A"...

23
00:02:10,630 --> 00:02:12,495
Oh, man.

24
00:02:14,134 --> 00:02:15,692
"B"...

25
00:02:20,306 --> 00:02:21,306
"E".

26
00:02:22,308 --> 00:02:25,641
- "Gabe". 
- That blows.

27
00:02:32,952 --> 00:02:35,512
That's it. We're going to the hospital.

28
00:02:35,512 --> 00:02:41,185
- No, mom. I'm too tired.
- Come on, sweetie. You've had a fever for almost a week now.

29
00:02:48,334 --> 00:02:50,598
- Ow.
- Oh, my God.

30
00:02:50,598 --> 00:02:53,571
Oh, Gabe. Are you okay?

31
00:02:53,571 --> 00:02:57,167
Are you okay? Baby, what's wrong?

32
00:02:59,244 --> 00:03:01,444
I'm dying.

33
00:03:48,528 --> 00:03:53,959
Twelve-year-old male. Spiking fever, congested chest, coughing up green sputum, pain in breathing.

34
00:03:53,959 --> 00:03:59,266
Baffling, though I vaguely recall a disease called "meunomia"? "Pneumania"?

35
00:03:59,266 --> 00:04:03,572
But his chest X-ray and CT scan show an atypical pattern for pneumonia. 

36
00:04:03,572 --> 00:04:07,738
Pneumonia! That's it. Just a guess here, but his parents big donors?

37
00:04:07,738 --> 00:04:11,272
No infiltrate, just enlarged hilar lymph nodes.

38
00:04:11,272 --> 00:04:14,843
Tiny unicorns goring his bronchial tubes would be cooler,

39
00:04:14,843 --> 00:04:19,654
and the way you're ignoring the question-- wow, they're extremely big donors.

40
00:04:19,654 --> 00:04:24,561
He's not responding to cefuroxime, his pulse ox is dropping much faster than it should for pneumonia,

41
00:04:24,561 --> 00:04:26,622
and plus he's got an odd little rash.

42
00:04:26,622 --> 00:04:30,100
- Excessive irritation. He's 12. He's on auto-stroke. 
- On his arm.

43
00:04:30,100 --> 00:04:33,764
Papular lesion, one centimeter, on top of a long, thin scab.

44
00:04:33,764 --> 00:04:39,073
Ah, you need a dermatologist. If it's dry, keep it wet. If it's wet, keep it dry.

45
00:04:39,073 --> 00:04:42,342
If it's not supposed to be there, cut it off. I never could master all that.

46
00:04:42,342 --> 00:04:45,009
There you are.

47
00:04:45,009 --> 00:04:48,417
Were you scared? It's okay. You're home now.

48
00:04:48,417 --> 00:04:50,422
Fine.

49
00:04:50,422 --> 00:04:52,082
Cuddy.

50
00:04:55,194 --> 00:04:59,961
- As a special favor to you--
- No. Admit it. I got you with the rash.

51
00:04:59,961 --> 00:05:09,698
The rash is a total snooze, unless it's connected to the pneumonia, then it's party time.

52
00:05:12,979 --> 00:05:16,506
Purulent sputum, dyspnea, rhonchi bilaterally.

53
00:05:16,506 --> 00:05:19,983
- What kind of pneumonia causes this kind of rash? 
- Legionnaire's disease.

54
00:05:19,983 --> 00:05:23,489
Usually means industrial ventilation systems, convention centers. He's 12 years old.

55
00:05:23,489 --> 00:05:26,821
Send off a urine antigen and check if he's joined the Elks. Next?

56
00:05:26,821 --> 00:05:30,329
- Fungal.
- Excellent. Maybe the lodge went spelunking.

57
00:05:30,329 --> 00:05:33,490
- Chlamydia pneumonia.
- Twelve-year-olds don't have sex.

58
00:05:33,490 --> 00:05:36,126
Their mistake.

59
00:05:36,126 --> 00:05:39,399
That's it? Other possibilities?

60
00:05:39,399 --> 00:05:44,910
- What if we're thinking about this backwards?
- The rash came first, caused the pneumonia. Nice.

61
00:05:44,910 --> 00:05:49,641
Rickettsial. Tick bite. Nymphal ticks are out now. They're bloodthirsty little bastards.

62
00:05:49,641 --> 00:05:53,413
- Rash would be more pustular.
- Not always, and there's only one rash, which fits.

63
00:05:53,413 --> 00:05:57,684
- New Jersey, it's most likely Lyme disease.
- All right. Let's keep him on fluids...

64
00:05:57,684 --> 00:05:59,816
And the cefuroxime to be safe.

65
00:05:59,816 --> 00:06:02,884
Biopsy that rash.

66
00:06:02,884 --> 00:06:06,056
And take another history. Even if we don't learn what's causing this,

67
00:06:06,056 --> 00:06:08,930
we definitely need to know if twelve-year-olds are getting any action.

68
00:06:13,573 --> 00:06:16,667
- What are you doing now?
- We're collecting fluids from the rash.

69
00:06:16,667 --> 00:06:18,973
- Why? 
- They know what they're doing, Jeffrey.

70
00:06:18,973 --> 00:06:23,482
Oh, great endorsement coming from the woman who thought it was a nasty cold. If I had had him last week--

71
00:06:23,482 --> 00:06:25,676
This isn't helping.

72
00:06:26,753 --> 00:06:30,382
We're checking to see if your son has a tick bite.

73
00:06:30,382 --> 00:06:34,688
Gabe, have you been camping recently, playing sports outside, anything like that?

74
00:06:34,688 --> 00:06:36,695
I'm not that good at sports.

75
00:06:36,695 --> 00:06:39,789
- No hanging out anywhere new, strange places?
- We've been through this.

76
00:06:39,789 --> 00:06:43,131
We don't let him run wild through the neighborhood, right?

77
00:06:45,805 --> 00:06:49,241
Okay. This might be a bit delicate.

78
00:06:51,210 --> 00:06:54,202
- We need to know if you're sexually active.
- I beg your pardon?

79
00:06:54,202 --> 00:06:56,805
- Mr. Reilich, we need to--
- No.

80
00:06:58,651 --> 00:07:00,585
Nothing like that.

81
00:07:03,156 --> 00:07:06,353
We've gotta get another CT scan, check his lungs again.

82
00:07:06,353 --> 00:07:08,417
- Third floor, right?
- Yeah, Radiology is--

83
00:07:08,417 --> 00:07:11,258
Sorry, medical personnel only.

84
00:07:14,233 --> 00:07:17,168
Where's the machine? Well, we passed it, actually.

85
00:07:17,168 --> 00:07:21,104
A little tension in the room back there. Thought you could use a break.

86
00:07:21,104 --> 00:07:24,371
Your dad's a pretty... high-powered guy.

87
00:07:24,371 --> 00:07:30,007
Yeah. He was an air force test pilot. Real Top Gun stuff.

88
00:07:30,007 --> 00:07:32,016
Flew Mach 3.

89
00:07:32,016 --> 00:07:34,075
Hard to deal with sometimes?

90
00:07:34,075 --> 00:07:37,714
- Guess I'm more like my mom. 
- Listen.

91
00:07:39,258 --> 00:07:42,785
I promise to keep my mouth shut, but I need to know.

92
00:07:42,785 --> 00:07:47,026
You definitely haven't had any sexual contact of any kind?

93
00:07:47,026 --> 00:07:49,033
I wish.

94
00:07:49,033 --> 00:07:51,092
You know what?

95
00:07:51,092 --> 00:07:54,196
Girls like the cool guys now, but give it a few years.

96
00:07:54,196 --> 00:07:56,707
They start liking the smart guys.

97
00:07:56,707 --> 00:07:59,074
You'll be all right.

98
00:08:01,113 --> 00:08:03,274
Can you keep a secret?

99
00:08:04,350 --> 00:08:07,342
I have to. It's my job.

100
00:08:09,956 --> 00:08:12,891
I'm cursed. I'm not kidding.

101
00:08:12,891 --> 00:08:17,760
This séance thing the kids did? It spelled out my name.

102
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,162
Said I was gonna die.

103
00:08:20,162 --> 00:08:24,761
First name and last name? We've got a Gabe upstairs who's very old, very sick.

104
00:08:24,761 --> 00:08:28,705
No. It's me. I have the worst luck.

105
00:08:28,705 --> 00:08:34,479
One time I broke this mirror, the next week my parents got separated.

106
00:08:34,479 --> 00:08:37,448
My parents split up too.

107
00:08:37,448 --> 00:08:42,250
Every kid feels like it's his fault. It never is.

108
00:08:42,250 --> 00:08:46,587
So, what about the rest of the stuff? Any playing outside your parents don't know about?

109
00:08:46,587 --> 00:08:48,593
Anything like that?

110
00:08:49,662 --> 00:08:52,358
Maybe you were somewhere you weren't supposed to be?

111
00:08:52,358 --> 00:08:55,491
Oh, man.

112
00:08:55,491 --> 00:08:59,334
Gabe, it's important.

113
00:09:01,541 --> 00:09:06,604
A secret club. What's the secret-- they're all morons?

114
00:09:06,604 --> 00:09:10,706
He fell on something in the attic, scraped his arm, got the rash the next day.

115
00:09:10,706 --> 00:09:13,877
Said it smelled really moldy up there.

116
00:09:13,877 --> 00:09:18,947
- Fungal pneumonia without the cave. Clever.
- I'm gonna get a sample.

117
00:09:20,393 --> 00:09:25,194
Dr. Chase, you have a few moments?

118
00:09:27,967 --> 00:09:29,867
Sorry, I've gotta go.

119
00:09:33,039 --> 00:09:36,805
These young doctors. It's like they don't care about people.

120
00:09:36,805 --> 00:09:40,642
- No manners.
- My fault, probably.

121
00:09:41,714 --> 00:09:46,515
That's an interesting accent you have there. I'd say Czech...

122
00:09:46,515 --> 00:09:48,679
With about 30 years of Aussie.

123
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,689
You have quite an ear.

124
00:09:51,689 --> 00:09:54,248
You're Chase's dad.

125
00:09:55,928 --> 00:09:59,921
Hard to miss-- you know, the big hug and how happy he was to see you.

126
00:10:09,542 --> 00:10:11,476
- Need a consult. 
- With a patient.

127
00:10:11,476 --> 00:10:14,035
Urgent doctor stuff.

128
00:10:15,648 --> 00:10:19,982
Twenty-six-year-old male, sudden loss of the ability to speak--

129
00:10:19,982 --> 00:10:23,613
- Just because you got out of clinic duty doesn't mean everybody did. 
- To his father.

130
00:10:23,613 --> 00:10:26,920
- Differential diagnosis? 
- Chase?

131
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,427
Dad swoops in, Chase swoops out.

132
00:10:29,427 --> 00:10:32,396
- Dad say why he was here? 
- See? You asked.

133
00:10:32,396 --> 00:10:35,764
Dad comes 5,000 miles, you're more curious than Junior is.

134
00:10:35,764 --> 00:10:38,804
Can't just be about the divorce.

135
00:10:38,804 --> 00:10:42,932
It's been 15 years, and Mom's been dead for 10 of them. You think Daddy murdered her?

136
00:10:42,932 --> 00:10:46,069
You want to get to the bottom of this, you're doing it exactly right:

137
00:10:46,069 --> 00:10:50,809
Don't talk to the people involved. Drag your buddy away from work for some pointless speculation.

138
00:10:50,809 --> 00:10:53,443
You want to know how two chemicals interact, do you ask them?

139
00:10:53,443 --> 00:10:57,148
No. They're gonna lie through their lying little chemical teeth.

140
00:10:57,148 --> 00:11:00,158
Throw them in a beaker and apply heat.

141
00:11:00,158 --> 00:11:02,592
Even I don't like you.

142
00:11:02,592 --> 00:11:05,153
You know, words can hurt.

143
00:11:19,545 --> 00:11:22,810
Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on, guys. I don't care that you're up here.

144
00:11:24,216 --> 00:11:28,550
- You a cop?
- Doctor. I'm treating Gabe Reilich.

145
00:11:28,550 --> 00:11:33,285
- He said he fell over near some pipes?
- Yeah, over there.

146
00:11:33,285 --> 00:11:36,260
- What, here?
- Yeah.

147
00:11:38,030 --> 00:11:43,332
- Any of you guys been feeling sick lately? Rash, cold, anything?
- No.

148
00:11:49,909 --> 00:11:53,675
Oh, crap. He is a cop! Damn it!

149
00:12:16,368 --> 00:12:19,633
He fell on it-- some weird kind of insulation.

150
00:12:19,633 --> 00:12:22,469
It's old. House was built in the '60s.

151
00:12:22,469 --> 00:12:26,534
- What's it made of? 
- Felt, fibers of-- what, cotton?

152
00:12:30,950 --> 00:12:33,384
Sorry. Forgotten how funny your dad was.

153
00:12:33,384 --> 00:12:37,081
- Not as funny as you.
- High praise.

154
00:12:37,081 --> 00:12:41,024
I know how protective kids can be of their parents.

155
00:12:45,264 --> 00:12:49,257
Not cotton. Animal hair.

156
00:12:50,603 --> 00:12:52,594
Get me the CT scan.

157
00:12:56,942 --> 00:13:00,969
First, find the name of the company that made the insulation,

158
00:13:00,969 --> 00:13:05,415
and second, tell me what I'm seeing that makes me want to short their stock.

159
00:13:05,415 --> 00:13:08,647
Uh, enlarged hilar lymph nodes.

160
00:13:08,647 --> 00:13:11,019
- Peribronchial thickening.
- Pleural effusions.

161
00:13:11,019 --> 00:13:15,049
Less obvious, more scary.

162
00:13:15,049 --> 00:13:17,527
Well, the mediastinum doesn't look right.

163
00:13:17,527 --> 00:13:20,087
Slightly widened.

164
00:13:20,087 --> 00:13:21,047
Oh, God.

165
00:13:22,735 --> 00:13:25,329
It can be transmitted through infected animal hair.

166
00:13:25,329 --> 00:13:30,068
- But the Gram's stain would have shown--
- No. The cefuroxime would have killed some of it, clouded the result.

167
00:13:30,068 --> 00:13:32,940
We've gotta get this kid on levaquin.

168
00:13:35,014 --> 00:13:37,244
What does he have?

169
00:13:37,244 --> 00:13:41,878
Anthrax. This house belong to old man Hussein?

170
00:13:45,257 --> 00:13:47,623
Maybe he is cursed.

171
00:14:00,206 --> 00:14:04,506
Anthrax. So, what-- you think there were terrorists in that attic?

172
00:14:04,506 --> 00:14:06,807
It's a naturally occurring bacteria.

173
00:14:06,807 --> 00:14:09,245
- We believe it was in the insulation.
- How sick is he?

174
00:14:09,245 --> 00:14:14,981
Anthrax is very dangerous, but we've caught it early. He's on levaquin. It's the best antibiotic we have.

175
00:14:14,981 --> 00:14:18,683
Lisa, you buy this? Jeff, you've helped our hospital a lot.

176
00:14:18,683 --> 00:14:22,318
I wouldn't have assigned Dr. House to your case if I didn't have every confidence in him.

177
00:14:22,318 --> 00:14:24,362
- Then who's this guy?
- Jeffrey!

178
00:14:24,362 --> 00:14:28,389
There's all these weird diseases that can cause a rash. What about leishmaniasis or filariasis?

179
00:14:28,389 --> 00:14:31,527
- Where'd you hear about those? 
- Internet. I did some research.

180
00:14:31,527 --> 00:14:35,233
- Well, those are very rare conditions. 
- Oh, and anthrax grows along the interstate?

181
00:14:35,233 --> 00:14:37,775
Leishmaniasis doesn't cause pneumonia, and filariasis--

182
00:14:37,775 --> 00:14:40,368
Just look into everything. This is my son, all right?

183
00:14:40,368 --> 00:14:44,610
- And I'm gonna stay on top of you until I know he's safe. 
- I wouldn't expect anything else.

184
00:14:48,454 --> 00:14:51,218
Everyone's a doctor.

185
00:14:56,829 --> 00:15:00,196
Breathe, baby. It's okay. Breathe. I need you to breathe.

186
00:15:00,196 --> 00:15:01,961
His breathing-- It's on the inhale.

187
00:15:01,961 --> 00:15:04,696
What does that mean? It means his airway's closing up.

188
00:15:04,696 --> 00:15:07,102
Is the anthrax doin' it?

189
00:15:07,102 --> 00:15:11,541
All right. Hold still, Gabe. This is gonna be a little uncomfortable.

190
00:15:18,217 --> 00:15:21,311
We've got you. It's okay.

191
00:15:23,822 --> 00:15:26,222
- Nodules in his throat.
- Airway's occluded?

192
00:15:26,222 --> 00:15:30,319
- We've got to intubate. Ativan!
- Pushing 3 ccs.

193
00:15:40,005 --> 00:15:43,463
- Airway's too tight.
- What's wrong? What's wrong? No, you're killing him!

194
00:15:43,463 --> 00:15:46,739
- Jeffrey! Let them do their job.
- Airway's too tight. Get me a smaller tube.

195
00:15:46,739 --> 00:15:48,643
- We're traching.
- Smaller tube.

196
00:15:54,753 --> 00:15:56,687
- His lips are cyanotic.
- He's not breathing.

197
00:15:56,687 --> 00:15:59,349
- Foreman, we're traching.
- No. I can do it. I'll get it.

198
00:16:00,492 --> 00:16:04,189
- Foreman, you're not getting through.
- He's not getting air.

199
00:16:04,189 --> 00:16:06,788
- We have to trach him right now.
- No, I can do it.

200
00:16:06,788 --> 00:16:08,264
Betadine.

201
00:16:13,372 --> 00:16:15,431
I'm doing this.

202
00:16:17,209 --> 00:16:18,049
Got it.

203
00:16:30,356 --> 00:16:33,484
He's okay.

204
00:16:36,595 --> 00:16:38,529
Allergic reaction to the antibiotics?

205
00:16:38,529 --> 00:16:42,795
I don't think so. We switched him to rifampin, and there was no change in the swelling.

206
00:16:42,795 --> 00:16:46,702
- We should try another antibiotic. 
- You really think he's allergic to two antibiotics?

207
00:16:46,702 --> 00:16:49,240
I wanna know what Dr. Chase thinks.

208
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,835
- It's possible he's allergic-- 
- Oh! I'm sorry. Not you.

209
00:16:52,835 --> 00:16:56,369
Understandable mistake. The other Dr. Chase.

210
00:16:59,385 --> 00:17:04,721
Boy gets anthrax and happens to be allergic to two antibiotics.

211
00:17:04,721 --> 00:17:09,227
Hate to step on anybody's toes, but is it possible your guys got this one wrong?

212
00:17:09,227 --> 00:17:12,730
- The rash is classic anthrax. 
- Except the color.

213
00:17:12,730 --> 00:17:15,494
The rash hasn't turned black yet. No necrosis, no anthrax.

214
00:17:15,494 --> 00:17:19,059
Necrosis can theoretically take as long as two weeks.

215
00:17:21,407 --> 00:17:23,204
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

216
00:17:23,204 --> 00:17:27,678
Guys, it's not a competition. It's a diagnosis.

217
00:17:28,747 --> 00:17:31,545
Okay. Who thinks Junior wins?

218
00:17:33,252 --> 00:17:36,085
Four to one. It's not anthrax.

219
00:17:36,085 --> 00:17:39,852
So we start over. What's changed? What do the nodules tell us?

220
00:17:41,193 --> 00:17:44,890
- Sarcoidosis.
- Excellent. Send an ACE level.

221
00:17:44,890 --> 00:17:49,525
If it comes back positive, put him on methotrexate.

222
00:17:50,602 --> 00:17:54,470
We ran some tests and the results point toward sarcoidosis.

223
00:17:54,470 --> 00:17:57,236
It makes the body's tissues swell up.

224
00:17:57,236 --> 00:18:01,143
It seems to have gone after Gabriel's skin and lungs and given him this fever.

225
00:18:01,143 --> 00:18:01,983
Doctor.

226
00:18:06,685 --> 00:18:09,381
We don't know what causes it.

227
00:18:09,381 --> 00:18:13,391
But you're sure he has this one? We have a world-renowned doctor consulting.

228
00:18:13,391 --> 00:18:17,327
- He's convinced this is sarcoidosis.
- Is it treatable?

229
00:18:17,327 --> 00:18:23,062
Very, actually. See, this is IV methotrexate. It's an anti-inflammatory.

230
00:18:23,062 --> 00:18:26,161
It should make all the swelling go down and, uh, get you all better.

231
00:18:27,239 --> 00:18:29,332
Stop.

232
00:18:31,310 --> 00:18:33,301
My God, it's black.

233
00:18:35,247 --> 00:18:37,147
Necrosis.

234
00:18:37,147 --> 00:18:42,347
It's definitely anthrax, and it definitely can't be anthrax. It doesn't cause throat nodules.

235
00:18:42,347 --> 00:18:47,290
Only explanation is, this kid's got anthrax and sarcoidosis.

236
00:18:47,290 --> 00:18:49,919
Right-- two incredibly rare diseases...

237
00:18:49,919 --> 00:18:53,522
- Just happening to strike at once.
- Unless you've got a better theory.

238
00:18:53,522 --> 00:18:55,658
Anthrax plus an allergic reaction.

239
00:18:55,658 --> 00:18:59,261
Call the Lancet, because that's one bizarre allergic reaction.

240
00:18:59,261 --> 00:19:02,865
Come on. There's no reason you both can't be wrong.

241
00:19:02,865 --> 00:19:05,375
It's not allergy, but it's not coincidence either.

242
00:19:05,375 --> 00:19:07,639
Disease number one set off disease number two.

243
00:19:07,639 --> 00:19:11,615
- Anthrax weakened his immune system.
- And triggered a dormant sarcoidosis.

244
00:19:11,615 --> 00:19:16,711
Keep him on antibiotics for the anthrax, and start the methotrexate for the sarcoidosis. See what happens.

245
00:19:16,711 --> 00:19:18,847
Fine.

246
00:19:21,593 --> 00:19:24,892
Better go with him. Make sure he doesn't snap and hurt somebody.

247
00:19:28,700 --> 00:19:30,895
Yeah, but y-you're treating him for both diseases.

248
00:19:30,895 --> 00:19:35,133
- We're covering all the bases. 
- What-- throw everything against the wall and see what sticks?

249
00:19:35,133 --> 00:19:37,141
Works for spaghetti.

250
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,229
- A-are you being funny? 
- Apparently not.

251
00:20:05,229 --> 00:20:07,738
You know why I give money to this hospital?

252
00:20:07,738 --> 00:20:10,240
It's the only way to get attention. See this?

253
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,710
Is this a magic trick? 'Cause I am a total David Copperfield fan.

254
00:20:13,710 --> 00:20:18,944
- Although I thought that tornado of fire-- that seemed a little fake. 
- Pain in the wrist. It won't go away for months.

255
00:20:18,944 --> 00:20:24,182
Six doctors' brilliant conclusion is to take it easy. I write a check, name goes on a plaque,

256
00:20:24,182 --> 00:20:28,625
and 48 hours later I've got two MRIs, a bone scan and a diagnosis: carpal tunnel.

257
00:20:28,625 --> 00:20:31,629
I'm in surgery that afternoon.

258
00:20:31,629 --> 00:20:36,259
Fascinating story. Have you thought of adapting it for the stage?

259
00:20:36,259 --> 00:20:39,771
I love my-- look at me. I love my son.

260
00:20:39,771 --> 00:20:44,070
I love him more than anything else in the world. Start paying attention to this case, or I'm gonna make things miserable--

261
00:20:44,070 --> 00:20:46,110
- Go to your son's room. 
- Not until you get your ass--

262
00:20:46,110 --> 00:20:48,305
There's a problem.

263
00:20:57,856 --> 00:21:01,622
- What is it?
- I don't know.

264
00:21:25,150 --> 00:21:27,448
Skin lesions are spreading all over his body.

265
00:21:27,448 --> 00:21:30,010
They're opening up, and the fatty tissues are oozing out.

266
00:21:30,010 --> 00:21:34,787
- He'll be septic in a matter of days. 
- Death by dermatitis.

267
00:21:34,787 --> 00:21:38,352
- Where's Robert?
- Uh, he has clinic duty this morning.

268
00:21:38,352 --> 00:21:44,391
- No, he doesn't. I rescheduled you guys so you'd be free. 
- Yeah, but he re-rescheduled himself.

269
00:21:51,376 --> 00:21:53,901
- It doesn't hurt yet. 
- Keep going.

270
00:21:53,901 --> 00:21:56,447
You page me?

271
00:21:56,447 --> 00:21:58,449
- No, I don't need you. 
- Come on.

272
00:21:58,449 --> 00:22:01,315
We all need help now and again. You're getting a consult.

273
00:22:02,521 --> 00:22:07,652
- Okay. We've got new skin lesions, bigger and uglier. What would cause that?
- My hand hurts.

274
00:22:07,652 --> 00:22:12,356
What if his body worked so hard attacking the anthrax that it started attacking itself?

275
00:22:12,356 --> 00:22:14,797
- Autoimmune.
- Wouldn't present this aggressively.

276
00:22:14,797 --> 00:22:19,132
- It's not likely, but it is possible.
- What, in a twelve-year-old male?

277
00:22:19,132 --> 00:22:24,039
- This isn't about me, is it?
- Gabe's dad found leishmaniasis and filariasis on the Internet yesterday.

278
00:22:24,039 --> 00:22:27,169
- They didn't fit then, but now they kind of do.
- Sure.

279
00:22:27,169 --> 00:22:30,442
Except for the nodules, and we're not working out of Calcutta General.

280
00:22:30,442 --> 00:22:33,973
- Multiple neurofibromatosis.
- You think this is neurological?

281
00:22:33,973 --> 00:22:37,613
The only reason you're thinking autoimmune is because you're a rheumatologist.

282
00:22:37,613 --> 00:22:40,351
If you were a proctologist, you'd think rectal cancer.

283
00:22:40,351 --> 00:22:42,859
Gotta go with Senior.

284
00:22:42,859 --> 00:22:45,988
- He literally wrote the book on this one.
- Autoimmune is a big universe.

285
00:22:45,988 --> 00:22:49,033
It could be anything from scleroderma to Churg-Strauss.

286
00:22:49,033 --> 00:22:51,729
Whatever it is, we should start him on steroids, keep the swelling down.

287
00:22:51,729 --> 00:22:54,533
A hundred milligrams of cytoxan-- it treats most autoimmunes.

288
00:22:54,533 --> 00:22:58,064
Well, give it to him now before the fat starts dripping out his eyeballs.

289
00:23:00,078 --> 00:23:03,343
Hey, my fingers are numb.

290
00:23:03,343 --> 00:23:05,474
Your watch is on too tight.

291
00:23:13,558 --> 00:23:18,689
- You're messing with my head. 
- Your relationship with your dad is messing with your ability to do your job.

292
00:23:18,689 --> 00:23:21,790
- Only because you made my dad part of my job.
- Good point.

293
00:23:21,790 --> 00:23:25,268
- You haven't seen him in years, he flies across the Atlantic to see you--
- Pacific.

294
00:23:25,268 --> 00:23:28,331
You breeze by him like he's a Hare Krishna at the airport, don't ask why he's in town.

295
00:23:28,331 --> 00:23:33,344
- It's probably a conference.
- Probably.

296
00:23:33,344 --> 00:23:38,281
I was hoping to do this through sheer manipulation, but if you insist on talking, fine. Talk.

297
00:23:40,285 --> 00:23:44,551
- What did he do to you?
- How would you feel if I interfered in your personal life?

298
00:23:45,624 --> 00:23:48,855
I'd hate it-- that's why I cleverly have no personal life.

299
00:23:48,855 --> 00:23:51,418
I'm gonna biopsy his skin lesions.

300
00:23:51,418 --> 00:23:56,991
Good thinking. Prove your dad wrong. That'll solve everything.

301
00:24:13,985 --> 00:24:16,112
- Who extubated him?
- I did.

302
00:24:16,112 --> 00:24:19,555
Temperature's down two degrees, and the swelling's almost gone.

303
00:24:19,555 --> 00:24:21,558
And his skin looks better too.

304
00:24:21,558 --> 00:24:24,288
Cytoxan is working.

305
00:24:24,288 --> 00:24:27,593
- Feeling better, Gabe?
- Yep, a lot.

306
00:24:27,593 --> 00:24:30,863
Dr. Chase, can you and I have a word?

307
00:24:34,239 --> 00:24:37,140
Your diagnosis is wrong. No autoimmune disease.

308
00:24:37,140 --> 00:24:41,873
The swelling's probably just down because we've got him on steroids. It's masking whatever's really wrong.

309
00:24:41,873 --> 00:24:47,613
- ANA’s are unreliable. 
- Phospholipid antibodies are negative, so no lupus. Same for Churg-Strauss.

310
00:24:47,613 --> 00:24:49,620
You're arguing with a rheumatologist.

311
00:24:49,620 --> 00:24:53,715
- There's about 20 distinct autoimmune diseases...
- Why are you here?

312
00:24:56,294 --> 00:24:58,285
SLE conference.

313
00:24:58,285 --> 00:25:02,595
You were in New York last year for the scleroderma conference. I didn't hear anything from you.

314
00:25:02,595 --> 00:25:06,694
- Just wanted to say hi this time. 
- You said it. You're still here.

315
00:25:07,906 --> 00:25:09,840
I miss you.

316
00:25:10,909 --> 00:25:15,505
I was 15 years old when you walked out. Now you're walking back in?

317
00:25:15,505 --> 00:25:18,515
I left your mother. I didn't leave you.

318
00:25:18,515 --> 00:25:23,680
- Mum was living on gin and tonics. How was I supposed to take care of her?
- She wasn't your responsibility.

319
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,883
I know! She was yours.

320
00:25:28,894 --> 00:25:33,797
I'm sorry she died. I'm sorry you had to deal with that.

321
00:25:35,133 --> 00:25:37,829
But she was falling apart long before--

322
00:25:37,829 --> 00:25:40,804
I've got to talk to House about this treatment.

323
00:25:45,610 --> 00:25:48,340
But the patient's getting better.

324
00:25:48,340 --> 00:25:50,347
In spite of the cytoxan.

325
00:25:50,347 --> 00:25:54,010
On the other hand-- getting better.

326
00:25:54,010 --> 00:25:57,020
Cytoxan makes him more susceptible to infection.

327
00:25:57,020 --> 00:26:00,353
- The anthrax could relapse and be more resistant. 
- Better!

328
00:26:00,353 --> 00:26:03,758
You want a negative test for every autoimmune disease known to man?

329
00:26:03,758 --> 00:26:08,765
- Fine. I'll get 'em.
- Be home by midnight or you can't have the car this weekend.

330
00:26:10,735 --> 00:26:13,727
You guys talk? Did he tell you why he's here?

331
00:26:14,806 --> 00:26:17,297
The SLE conference.

332
00:26:29,454 --> 00:26:34,016
- Going back to the conference? 
- Afternoon panel. I hope I can stay awake.

333
00:26:34,016 --> 00:26:38,290
I hope you can get in. You're not registered.

334
00:26:42,267 --> 00:26:46,260
I get it. You had to make up a lie.

335
00:26:46,260 --> 00:26:49,307
Can't just tell your kid you're here to see him.

336
00:26:49,307 --> 00:26:52,935
I mean, what father does that?

337
00:26:54,012 --> 00:26:59,609
That little blue dot under your collar-- it's a tattoo for guiding radiation treatment.

338
00:27:00,685 --> 00:27:04,712
I was looking for it after I saw what you had for breakfast: brown rice, vegetables.

339
00:27:04,712 --> 00:27:10,659
It's a macrobiotic diet-- popular with Hollywood starlets and... cancer patients.

340
00:27:12,964 --> 00:27:14,989
Lungs. Stage IV.

341
00:27:16,835 --> 00:27:20,362
- You look good.
- I'm not.

342
00:27:20,362 --> 00:27:25,171
Came to the States to go to Sloan-Kettering and see Dr. Wilson.

343
00:27:25,171 --> 00:27:29,304
- What'd he say?
- Three months.

344
00:27:29,304 --> 00:27:31,349
But you haven't told Robert.

345
00:27:31,349 --> 00:27:35,682
You don't want to burden him, because you were such a lousy dad.

346
00:27:37,922 --> 00:27:40,186
I'd prefer you not tell him.

347
00:27:41,893 --> 00:27:43,827
Yeah. That's better.

348
00:27:45,397 --> 00:27:47,922
I'll get to see his face when he reads his dad's obituary.

349
00:27:47,922 --> 00:27:50,627
It's not your business.

350
00:27:53,204 --> 00:27:55,331
I suppose it isn't.

351
00:28:04,182 --> 00:28:06,241
You sure do a lot of tests.

352
00:28:06,241 --> 00:28:11,311
If we figure out exactly which autoimmune condition it is, we can get you better quicker.

353
00:28:11,311 --> 00:28:15,189
- Was that your dad before?
- Yeah.

354
00:28:15,189 --> 00:28:18,559
That's so cool. Do you guys work together a lot?

355
00:28:18,559 --> 00:28:21,292
Not really.

356
00:28:21,292 --> 00:28:23,493
When can I go home?

357
00:28:23,493 --> 00:28:25,832
We'll see.

358
00:28:25,832 --> 00:28:30,170
Looks like you got your appetite back. That's a good sign.

359
00:28:30,170 --> 00:28:32,971
- Want some water?
- Yes.

360
00:28:35,213 --> 00:28:38,239
- Ah!
- Here you go.

361
00:28:41,052 --> 00:28:44,180
That's all right. Water's cheap.

362
00:28:44,180 --> 00:28:47,588
- Oh, God.
- What?

363
00:28:49,561 --> 00:28:52,223
I can't-- I can't move my hand.

364
00:29:01,139 --> 00:29:04,131
Can you squeeze my fingers for me, Gabe?

365
00:29:09,247 --> 00:29:12,876
He's getting worse. Now his entire right hand and forearm are paralyzed.

366
00:29:12,876 --> 00:29:18,116
- And his fever's back. It's up over 105. 
- If we don't stop the nerve deterioration quickly, he'll be paralyzed for life.

367
00:29:18,116 --> 00:29:21,886
Well, luckily, at this rate that should only last about a week.

368
00:29:21,886 --> 00:29:25,418
- Okay. So--
- I told you we should get him off the cytoxan.

369
00:29:25,418 --> 00:29:30,264
This is toxic neuropathy. We've been shoving drugs into his system for a disease he doesn't have.

370
00:29:30,264 --> 00:29:32,204
Well, it could be neurological.

371
00:29:32,204 --> 00:29:37,798
What kind of brain process would cause a paralyzed hand, skin lesions and swollen throat nodules?

372
00:29:37,798 --> 00:29:43,109
Robert was right. You said multiple neurofibromatosis.

373
00:29:43,109 --> 00:29:47,550
Are you saying that for the chance at a beautiful family moment, or is there some medicine involved?

374
00:29:47,550 --> 00:29:49,883
- Fits better.
- Too bad.

375
00:29:49,883 --> 00:29:54,050
I was hoping for the other reason. I was gonna go get my camera.

376
00:29:54,050 --> 00:29:56,958
Get a CT scan-- his brain this time.

377
00:30:05,003 --> 00:30:07,904
You'd think three copies would be enough, right?

378
00:30:07,904 --> 00:30:11,169
One's always been more than enough for me.

379
00:30:11,169 --> 00:30:14,507
Why didn't you tell me that Rowan Chase was in to see you?

380
00:30:15,580 --> 00:30:17,946
Excuse me.

381
00:30:17,946 --> 00:30:21,577
Ethics, confidentiality-- does any of this ring a bell?

382
00:30:21,577 --> 00:30:26,488
- You could have covered yourself, called me in for a consult. 
- It is a juicy piece of gossip.

383
00:30:26,488 --> 00:30:30,892
You know what happened? I got all focused on his cancer and lost perspective.

384
00:30:30,892 --> 00:30:34,056
You can't tell Chase, but I can. What should I do?

385
00:30:34,056 --> 00:30:38,466
This is where I give you advice and pretend you're gonna listen to it. I like this part.

386
00:30:38,466 --> 00:30:41,437
- Did Rowan ask you not to tell? 
- I promised I wouldn't.

387
00:30:41,437 --> 00:30:43,531
My fingers were crossed, though, so I'm wide open.

388
00:30:43,531 --> 00:30:47,272
I was wrong. This is the musing-out-loud part. Do I actually need to be here? 

389
00:30:47,272 --> 00:30:52,146
- Telling him. Now, that's got real entertainment value. 
- He might even cry.

390
00:30:52,146 --> 00:30:54,947
On the other hand, there is the do-unto-others thingy.

391
00:30:54,947 --> 00:30:59,012
- Well, then I should definitely tell him. I'd wanna know.
- You wanna know everything.

392
00:30:59,012 --> 00:31:01,820
There's also the keeping-your-promises thingy.

393
00:31:01,820 --> 00:31:06,387
Oh, you never run out of thingies-- like that blonde thingy you were chatting up.

394
00:31:06,387 --> 00:31:10,127
She's the hospital accountant. We were going over billing procedures.

395
00:31:10,127 --> 00:31:13,364
Double-entry bookkeeping?

396
00:31:15,607 --> 00:31:17,541
What are you gonna do?

397
00:31:20,278 --> 00:31:23,338
Billing procedures. They're so complicated, aren't they?

398
00:31:40,832 --> 00:31:44,529
You know, parents are never as bad as kids think they are.

399
00:31:44,529 --> 00:31:48,504
If you like my dad so much, ask him out.

400
00:31:48,504 --> 00:31:51,508
I'd make an excellent stepmom. I'm very lenient.

401
00:31:56,414 --> 00:32:00,783
He's your father. You never see him, and he's here.

402
00:32:00,783 --> 00:32:04,344
Unless he's done some unspeakable thing, you should lighten up.

403
00:32:04,344 --> 00:32:06,686
Great. Thanks for the tip.

404
00:32:07,759 --> 00:32:09,693
Okay.

405
00:32:11,296 --> 00:32:14,459
He beat your mom. He beat you.

406
00:32:15,466 --> 00:32:18,526
- What did he do?
- Really, don't push it.

407
00:32:23,207 --> 00:32:27,041
All this hate. It's toxic.

408
00:32:28,813 --> 00:32:30,747
Then stay away.

409
00:32:39,223 --> 00:32:41,885
There's nothing there.

410
00:32:41,885 --> 00:32:46,420
No masses, no fibrous tangles, nothing.

411
00:32:46,420 --> 00:32:48,465
It's not neurofibromatosis.

412
00:32:48,465 --> 00:32:52,765
Drs. Chase are 0 for 3. Even when they agree, they're wrong.

413
00:32:52,765 --> 00:32:57,797
- So, next, what else could cause neural damage as well as all the nodules? 
- Berger's disease.

414
00:32:57,797 --> 00:33:01,242
- He's never been out of the country.
- Have his parents? They could have brought it back.

415
00:33:01,242 --> 00:33:03,578
I don't think so.

416
00:33:03,578 --> 00:33:07,928
It doesn't matter. His lesions are in the wrong place. His feet are the one clear spot.

417
00:33:07,928 --> 00:33:09,177
- Kid's dad mentioned leishmaniasis.
- Yeah, and filariasis.

418
00:33:09,177 --> 00:33:14,520
- But the throat nodules still don't fit with that.
- That's two diseases pretty much exclusive to Southeast Asia.

419
00:33:19,063 --> 00:33:22,965
What if the anthrax didn't set off the second disease?

420
00:33:22,965 --> 00:33:28,028
- We're back at coincidence again?
- No. What if something else was the trigger?

421
00:33:28,028 --> 00:33:30,040
- Nothing else happened.
- We happened.

422
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:33,544
- Antibiotics?
- We've been through this. It's not an allergy.

423
00:33:35,213 --> 00:33:37,204
I gotta pee.

424
00:33:51,429 --> 00:33:55,627
- What did the CT scan tell you?
- Nothing.

425
00:33:55,627 --> 00:33:58,669
Scale from one to ten-- how painful?

426
00:33:58,669 --> 00:34:02,638
- Not half as painful as when I punch you in the face. 
- Don't do that. It'll hurt you.

427
00:34:02,638 --> 00:34:06,370
- Carpal tunnel surgery obviously didn't work.
- Who are you?

428
00:34:06,370 --> 00:34:11,541
The little ones call me Uncle Greg. Your dad never had carpal tunnel.

429
00:34:11,541 --> 00:34:15,712
You mentioned two obscure diseases to Dr. Chase. How did you know about them?

430
00:34:15,712 --> 00:34:17,918
I read about them on the Internet.

431
00:34:17,918 --> 00:34:20,918
What did you search for-- "Diseases from Asia that don't match my son's symptoms"?

432
00:34:20,918 --> 00:34:23,222
- You head about them in Asia.
- I've never been there.

433
00:34:23,222 --> 00:34:26,388
Well, you probably just forgot. Let me refresh your memory:

434
00:34:26,388 --> 00:34:30,867
some remote, dusty village, close quarters, at least a year?

435
00:34:30,867 --> 00:34:33,096
- Starting to come back?
- I'm calling Dr. Cuddy.

436
00:34:33,096 --> 00:34:35,765
Excuse me, what does this have to do with our son?

437
00:34:35,765 --> 00:34:39,071
Your dad's pissed off. He should be.

438
00:34:39,071 --> 00:34:44,103
Comes here expecting us to do an extra-good job because he gives a whole lot of money to this hospital.

439
00:34:44,103 --> 00:34:47,345
- Don't talk to my son like that!
- Just telling him my job and my obligation--

440
00:34:47,345 --> 00:34:51,184
Stop! What's going on?

441
00:34:54,659 --> 00:34:58,060
There's only one thing you guys have gotta do.

442
00:34:59,664 --> 00:35:03,964
Tell the truth, or your son will die.

443
00:35:05,703 --> 00:35:08,729
How long were you in Asia?

444
00:35:11,843 --> 00:35:14,038
Jeff, it's a simple question.

445
00:35:18,583 --> 00:35:21,108
Two years, in India.

446
00:35:22,553 --> 00:35:25,784
- Why would you lie about something like that? 
- It was '87 and '88.

447
00:35:31,462 --> 00:35:32,662
This, uh--

448
00:35:34,899 --> 00:35:38,562
This guru-- I-I thought he had some answers.

449
00:35:39,637 --> 00:35:43,403
I went to his ashram...

450
00:35:43,403 --> 00:35:48,275
And, um, ended up with no money and no answers.

451
00:35:49,914 --> 00:35:52,849
I was embarrassed. I didn't want anyone to know.

452
00:35:55,252 --> 00:35:56,002
No.

453
00:35:58,055 --> 00:36:00,683
No. You were a test pilot.

454
00:36:00,683 --> 00:36:03,522
I'm so sorry, Gabe.

455
00:36:05,263 --> 00:36:08,027
What does this have to do with my son?

456
00:36:14,105 --> 00:36:19,566
Clue number one: if I were Jesus, curing this kid would be as easy as turning water into wine.

457
00:36:19,566 --> 00:36:23,341
- Demonic possession? 
- Close, but no wafer.

458
00:36:23,341 --> 00:36:29,353
Clue number two: rheumatology Rowan was almost right. It causes autoimmune symptoms.

459
00:36:29,353 --> 00:36:32,856
- Leprosy?
- Yeah, that's real big in the Jersey suburbs.

460
00:36:33,925 --> 00:36:37,452
It's leprosy. Run a Fite stain. It'll be positive.

461
00:36:37,452 --> 00:36:40,895
Daddy hung out on the wrong kind of Indian ashram.

462
00:36:40,895 --> 00:36:43,991
But it's obviously dormant in the dad. How could the kid catch it?

463
00:36:43,991 --> 00:36:46,502
It's not dormant in the dad. It's just slow.

464
00:36:46,502 --> 00:36:50,132
Damaged his ulnar nerves. Was misdiagnosed as carpal tunnel.

465
00:36:50,132 --> 00:36:54,167
Never trust doctors. Run a Fite stain.

466
00:36:54,167 --> 00:36:58,306
No wonder he got anthrax. The leprosy weakened his immune system.

467
00:36:58,306 --> 00:37:01,909
Vicious circle: The leprosy made him vulnerable to the anthrax,

468
00:37:01,909 --> 00:37:04,352
and the anthrax treatment put the leprosy in overdrive.

469
00:37:04,352 --> 00:37:10,122
- But the antibiotics we gave him-- they cure leprosy.
- Yeah. That's where the trouble starts.

470
00:37:10,122 --> 00:37:12,890
The antibiotics hit the nerve strands.

471
00:37:12,890 --> 00:37:16,661
They kill the leprosy bacteria, and the corpses get tossed into the system.

472
00:37:16,661 --> 00:37:19,999
And as fascinating as our bodies are, they're also stupid.

473
00:37:19,999 --> 00:37:24,167
They produce antibodies to beat dead bacteria.

474
00:37:24,167 --> 00:37:26,836
And these aren't the polite antibodies.

475
00:37:26,836 --> 00:37:29,937
They're the ones that won't sit still, kick during nap time.

476
00:37:29,937 --> 00:37:35,942
They attack his neural and fat cells, causing inflammation and all the rest of his symptoms.

477
00:37:35,942 --> 00:37:38,284
So the cure's killing him.

478
00:37:38,284 --> 00:37:43,225
I want you to call down to Carville, Louisiana, home of the last leper colony in the Lower 48.

479
00:37:43,225 --> 00:37:45,421
Get 'em to send up some thalidomide.

480
00:37:45,421 --> 00:37:48,932
- Thalidomide?
- Twelve-year-olds don't have sex, right? So he can't be pregnant.

481
00:37:48,932 --> 00:37:50,991
Make the call.

482
00:37:54,472 --> 00:37:57,100
I need to speak to your boy.

483
00:38:09,487 --> 00:38:12,979
Why does everybody need to know my business?

484
00:38:12,979 --> 00:38:15,787
People like talking about people.

485
00:38:15,787 --> 00:38:19,694
Makes us feel superior, makes us feel in control,

486
00:38:19,694 --> 00:38:24,428
and sometimes, for some people, knowing some things makes them care.

487
00:38:24,428 --> 00:38:29,667
I tell you my dad left, my mum drank herself to death, you gonna care about me more?

488
00:38:29,667 --> 00:38:33,608
Cameron would. Me, I just like knowing stuff.

489
00:38:35,413 --> 00:38:38,644
I know you hate your dad.

490
00:38:38,644 --> 00:38:40,980
- Now, I'm gonna tell you something--
- I don't hate him.

491
00:38:42,420 --> 00:38:47,289
I loved him until I figured out that it hurts a lot less to just not care.

492
00:38:48,359 --> 00:38:52,193
You don't expect him to turn up to your football match, no disappointments.

493
00:38:52,193 --> 00:38:58,224
You don't expect a call on your birthday, don't expect to see him for months, no disappointments.

494
00:38:59,537 --> 00:39:04,941
You want us to go make up-- sink a few beers together, nice family hug?

495
00:39:08,079 --> 00:39:13,449
I've given him enough hugs. He's given me enough disappointments.

496
00:39:17,855 --> 00:39:19,105
Okay.

497
00:39:22,593 --> 00:39:25,994
- That's it?
- That's it.

498
00:39:50,121 --> 00:39:51,081
Breathe.

499
00:39:54,792 --> 00:39:57,852
Breathe again.

500
00:39:57,852 --> 00:39:59,919
Breathe again.

501
00:39:59,919 --> 00:40:03,933
Are you gonna have to tell my friends I'm a leper?

502
00:40:03,933 --> 00:40:07,402
You had the antibiotics. You're not contagious anymore.

503
00:40:07,402 --> 00:40:10,497
Well, what if they already caught it?

504
00:40:10,497 --> 00:40:15,671
Leprosy is incredibly hard to catch. Even your mum didn't get it.

505
00:40:15,671 --> 00:40:19,443
Right. I want you to make a fist.

506
00:40:19,443 --> 00:40:21,542
It's still kinda stiff.

507
00:40:21,542 --> 00:40:25,919
It'll get back to normal in a month or two. Your skin, two or three weeks.

508
00:40:25,919 --> 00:40:28,515

509
00:40:28,515 --> 00:40:31,755
You haven't asked about your dad.

510
00:40:33,297 --> 00:40:35,788
He lied about everything.

511
00:40:35,788 --> 00:40:40,235
He lied to my mom. He lied to his boss.

512
00:40:40,235 --> 00:40:42,295
He's just a liar.

513
00:40:43,808 --> 00:40:45,742
He loves you.

514
00:40:47,878 --> 00:40:50,438
I don't love him.

515
00:40:51,949 --> 00:40:54,110
Yeah, you do.

516
00:40:59,390 --> 00:41:03,451
Nothing you can do about it. He's your dad.

517
00:41:03,451 --> 00:41:06,985
It doesn't matter what he does. You're gonna love him.

518
00:41:20,044 --> 00:41:22,535
Here. Thanks.

519
00:41:23,948 --> 00:41:24,948
Hey!

520
00:41:36,727 --> 00:41:39,195
When's your flight? You got time for a drink?

521
00:41:40,264 --> 00:41:42,289
Wish I did.

522
00:41:42,289 --> 00:41:45,301
Dr. Chase?

523
00:41:54,478 --> 00:41:56,469
I got it.

524
00:41:59,216 --> 00:42:02,549
You're gonna be gettin' down to Oz anytime soon?

525
00:42:04,221 --> 00:42:07,213
Not too long. Next autumn, I hope.

526
00:42:08,292 --> 00:42:11,227
I'll call ya.

527
00:42:13,297 --> 00:42:15,959
Well, you're all set.

528
00:42:24,241 --> 00:42:28,007
- I'll see ya.
- Yeah.

529
00:42:28,007 --> 00:42:30,012
I'll see you.
