1
00:00:05,605 --> 00:00:09,735
- Where are those projections? 
- Three, six and nine are in their folders.

2
00:00:09,735 --> 00:00:12,277
- Can I have some more... 
- Tea's at your seat. Hello.

3
00:00:12,277 --> 00:00:15,246
Oh, hold on.

4
00:00:15,246 --> 00:00:18,113
Ben Federman again, another pre-call.

5
00:00:18,113 --> 00:00:22,780
We did the pre-call. Is this the post pre-call call?

6
00:00:22,780 --> 00:00:25,381
The board's gonna want specifics with the push into the Asian markets.

7
00:00:25,381 --> 00:00:27,392
Ben, there are no specifics about Asia.

8
00:00:27,392 --> 00:00:29,985
We came up with that as a Hail Mary at 3:00 in the morning...

9
00:00:29,985 --> 00:00:32,054
To placate the board about international.

10
00:00:32,054 --> 00:00:34,191
Carly, I'm just giving you a heads-up about Asia.

11
00:00:35,535 --> 00:00:37,469
There is no Asia.

12
00:00:38,938 --> 00:00:40,872
Let's talk about Asia.

13
00:00:40,872 --> 00:00:45,138
We're in the preliminary stages of forming a strategic alliance with Credit Lyonnais.

14
00:00:45,138 --> 00:00:49,477
Within three months, you won't be able to walk four feet in Kangham, South Korea...

15
00:00:49,477 --> 00:00:51,483
Without seeing one of our beautiful models...

16
00:00:51,483 --> 00:00:55,783
Smiling at you from billboards and drugstore windows, inviting you in.

17
00:00:55,783 --> 00:00:59,484
That's incredible news, Carly. We'd hoped to hear something about Asia.

18
00:00:59,484 --> 00:01:02,153
Had no idea plans were so far along.

19
00:01:02,153 --> 00:01:04,992
Well, you know Asia. Nothing's done until it's done.

20
00:01:04,992 --> 00:01:08,592
Carly, I was wondering...

21
00:01:08,592 --> 00:01:11,159
Could you walk us through what you were thinking for other Asian territories?

22
00:01:11,159 --> 00:01:14,638
Absolutely. India has over half a billion women.

23
00:01:14,638 --> 00:01:18,609
In terms of spending power, it's the single largest potential market in the world.

24
00:01:27,020 --> 00:01:32,287
Um, we have retained a local firm to ensure that cultural differences are respected.

25
00:01:32,287 --> 00:01:36,351
Um, however, I can't go into the specifics of my plan with you until tomorrow.

26
00:01:36,351 --> 00:01:38,363
Right now I have a meeting and I need the room.

27
00:01:38,363 --> 00:01:40,763
We were just getting started.

28
00:01:40,763 --> 00:01:44,031
I know and I do apologize. It's last minute,

29
00:01:44,031 --> 00:01:47,596
but the meeting is with three state department officials to smooth the way for China.

30
00:01:47,596 --> 00:01:51,041
China? This is just incredible.

31
00:01:51,041 --> 00:01:53,545
- We'll be in touch.
- Thank you.

32
00:01:54,848 --> 00:01:57,146
- What is it?
- I need a doctor.

33
00:01:57,146 --> 00:01:59,811
I can't move my leg.

34
00:02:36,689 --> 00:02:41,456
32-year-old female, paralysis and severe pain in her right quad. Go.

35
00:02:41,456 --> 00:02:45,897
- How'd she get to you?
- She's the CEO of Sonyo Cosmetics.

36
00:02:45,897 --> 00:02:49,332
Three assistants and 15 VPs checked out who should be treating her.

37
00:02:49,332 --> 00:02:52,428
Who da man? I da man. I always suspected.

38
00:02:52,428 --> 00:02:55,997
Dr. House, I know the chances are very slim, but I'm sure you recognize...

39
00:02:55,997 --> 00:02:59,203
That she may have what you had, a clot in her thigh.

40
00:02:59,203 --> 00:03:01,338
A bit of a long shot.

41
00:03:01,338 --> 00:03:04,440
- What about a disk herniation?
- I don't know, Eric.

42
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,782
If her disk were herniated, she'd present with pain elsewhere, wouldn't she?

43
00:03:09,022 --> 00:03:11,013
- Yeah, I suppose.
- You're right.

44
00:03:11,013 --> 00:03:13,957
A clot's also the most deadly, right, Robert?

45
00:03:15,528 --> 00:03:18,827
True. The clot breaks off, she could stroke and die.

46
00:03:18,827 --> 00:03:20,798
Dr. House, I believe that they're right-

47
00:03:20,798 --> 00:03:24,030
- Stop talking.
- What?

48
00:03:24,030 --> 00:03:27,504
You read one of those negotiating books, didn't you?

49
00:03:27,504 --> 00:03:33,171
Getting To Yes. Fifty Ways to Win an Argument. Hitchhiker's Guide to Being a Pal.

50
00:03:33,171 --> 00:03:37,740
In five seconds, you just manipulated these two into agreeing with your point of view.

51
00:03:37,740 --> 00:03:40,149
Fellas, this is known as soft positional bargaining.

52
00:03:41,721 --> 00:03:43,689
It's not gonna work.

53
00:03:43,689 --> 00:03:49,420
Dr. House, are you saying that she doesn't have a clot, or are you saying that if she does have a clot,

54
00:03:49,420 --> 00:03:51,725
she doesn't need blood thinners and an angiogram?

55
00:03:53,766 --> 00:03:57,668
Chase, put her on blood thinners. Do an angiogram.

56
00:03:57,668 --> 00:04:00,297
When that comes back negative, MRI the spine.

57
00:04:00,297 --> 00:04:03,035
If that's clean, cut her open and biopsy the leg.

58
00:04:03,035 --> 00:04:08,240
- Excellent suggestion. 
- Read less, more TV.

59
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,283
It's rare for an individual to make a donation...

60
00:04:11,283 --> 00:04:16,687
Significant enough to impact an organization as large and unwieldy as a hospital.

61
00:04:16,687 --> 00:04:22,521
This donation does come with one string, that he be made chairman of the board.

62
00:04:22,521 --> 00:04:26,326
I think that's a reasonable request. I think he should have the right to know...

63
00:04:26,326 --> 00:04:31,268
What it is we do with his $100 million.

64
00:04:31,268 --> 00:04:33,931
Please welcome our new chairman of the board, Edward Vogler.

65
00:04:33,931 --> 00:04:35,131
Thank you.

66
00:04:38,278 --> 00:04:40,940
Thank you.

67
00:04:40,940 --> 00:04:46,543
When I was 18, my dad loaned me $20,000 for a college tuition,

68
00:04:46,543 --> 00:04:52,023
which he would have known was a mistake had he known I wasn't actually in college.

69
00:04:52,023 --> 00:04:57,723
I took his money and invested in a friend who had a little business.

70
00:04:57,723 --> 00:05:04,258
And when my dad found out what I had done with his money, he and I didn't talk much after that.

71
00:05:04,258 --> 00:05:10,935
But my friend's business took off, and I used the profits from that to buy another company and another.

72
00:05:10,935 --> 00:05:13,604
And I must have been pretty good at it, had a good eye,

73
00:05:13,604 --> 00:05:17,013
because before I knew it, people were making offers for my company.

74
00:05:17,013 --> 00:05:23,017
And about a year ago, I went public, and overnight I was worth a billion dollars.

75
00:05:23,017 --> 00:05:25,523
So, I went to see my dad.

76
00:05:25,523 --> 00:05:29,994
I'll admit. I wanted a little payback. You know, kind of shove the win in his face.

77
00:05:29,994 --> 00:05:36,902
So, I drove upstate, and sat in the kitchen I grew up in, and, uh, he had no reaction.

78
00:05:38,838 --> 00:05:42,899
It wasn't his fault. He didn't even know who I was,

79
00:05:42,899 --> 00:05:49,210
because his Alzheimer's had taken a turn for the worse, despite the best drugs and care out there.

80
00:05:49,210 --> 00:05:51,842
And that is why I'm here.

81
00:05:52,919 --> 00:05:56,184
What if my contribution to this hospital is the difference between...

82
00:05:56,184 --> 00:05:59,122
No cure and a cure for cancer?

83
00:05:59,122 --> 00:06:03,390
The difference between a man not recognizing his wife of 35 years...

84
00:06:03,390 --> 00:06:08,730
And being able to look at her and say, "Good morning, honey. I love you."

85
00:06:10,236 --> 00:06:17,141
If there's a disease out there killing people, I am writing you a blank check to fight back.

86
00:06:18,411 --> 00:06:23,178
So, things are going to change a lot.

87
00:06:33,493 --> 00:06:35,825
We're gonna have to ask you for the cell phone.

88
00:06:35,825 --> 00:06:38,659
Do what you need to do. I'm okay.

89
00:06:38,659 --> 00:06:41,859
I'm pretty sure my X-ray machine can take your phone in a fight.

90
00:06:42,935 --> 00:06:45,927
It'll fry it.

91
00:06:45,927 --> 00:06:47,177
Fine.

92
00:06:50,977 --> 00:06:53,241
- How old is she?
- Thirty-two.

93
00:06:53,241 --> 00:06:56,440
Wow. And she's already the CEO of a public company.

94
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,213
She's a workaholic. Okay, Carly, hold still.

95
00:07:00,213 --> 00:07:02,516
The X-ray machine is gonna pass over your leg.

96
00:07:02,516 --> 00:07:05,250
- Okay. 
- What'd you do with your time off?

97
00:07:05,250 --> 00:07:07,383
Snowboarding in Gstaad.

98
00:07:07,383 --> 00:07:09,394
Switzerland.

99
00:07:09,394 --> 00:07:11,293
Do you ski or board? You can come with if you like.

100
00:07:11,293 --> 00:07:15,027
Maybe we should start with a drink before we go around the world.

101
00:07:15,027 --> 00:07:18,264
Oh, you wanna have a drink with me?

102
00:07:18,264 --> 00:07:21,306
Oh, very aggressive. I like that.

103
00:07:26,712 --> 00:07:28,839
I wanna run this place like a business.

104
00:07:28,839 --> 00:07:30,815
What, you want to put more vending machines in the hallway?

105
00:07:30,815 --> 00:07:33,750
- Maybe a roulette wheel?
- Nice one. But I'm serious.

106
00:07:33,750 --> 00:07:37,415
The product that you're selling is good health. It shouldn't be a tough sell.

107
00:07:37,415 --> 00:07:40,926
If you don't wanna sell, it means you don't care if people get your product.

108
00:07:40,926 --> 00:07:44,554
You care if people are healthy, or are you too proud for that?

109
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,459
Who's that?

110
00:07:53,706 --> 00:07:56,937
Oh, that's just one of our doctors.

111
00:07:56,937 --> 00:08:00,775
Aren't, uh, doctors supposed to wear lab coats?

112
00:08:00,775 --> 00:08:03,179
- He's different.
- Everyone's buddy.

113
00:08:03,179 --> 00:08:07,345
- No, not exactly.
- Then why does he get away with it?

114
00:08:07,345 --> 00:08:12,255
It's just a coat. He's very good.

115
00:08:17,897 --> 00:08:20,331
- Say "Ah."
- Ah.

116
00:08:20,331 --> 00:08:23,800
Now really belt it out, like you're gonna throw up.

117
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:24,760
Perfect.

118
00:08:27,773 --> 00:08:30,037
Okay, that's it.

119
00:08:30,037 --> 00:08:33,601
We should know in a couple of days what's growing in your son's throat.

120
00:08:36,382 --> 00:08:37,102
Hello?

121
00:08:38,584 --> 00:08:42,020
- He can't talk.
- Excuse me?

122
00:08:42,020 --> 00:08:45,216
- He had knee surgery.
- Right?

123
00:08:45,216 --> 00:08:47,987
About a year ago, and then he couldn't talk.

124
00:08:47,987 --> 00:08:51,188
Right. Yeah, well, that happens.

125
00:08:51,188 --> 00:08:55,792
You know, it's very dangerous operating so close to the vocal cords.

126
00:08:55,792 --> 00:09:00,828
Okay. Well, we'll send your kid's culture to the lab and somebody will call you.

127
00:09:00,828 --> 00:09:01,828
Boo!

128
00:09:06,612 --> 00:09:11,709
Just wanted to see if your dad, you know... bizarre.

129
00:09:15,354 --> 00:09:17,549
I need you to wear your lab coat.

130
00:09:17,549 --> 00:09:22,526
I need two days of outrageous sex with someone obscenely younger than you, like half your age.

131
00:09:22,526 --> 00:09:24,722
Wear the coat.

132
00:09:24,722 --> 00:09:27,732
Man, oh, man, someone got spanked real good this morning.

133
00:09:27,732 --> 00:09:30,530
A guy gives $100 million to cure cancer.

134
00:09:30,530 --> 00:09:33,003
A pretty small concession to wear a lab coat.

135
00:09:33,003 --> 00:09:35,199
Cure cancer?

136
00:09:35,199 --> 00:09:38,266
Is the hospital getting out of the dull business of treating patients?

137
00:09:38,266 --> 00:09:40,471
- You know that's not what he's doing.
- I know exactly what he's doing.

138
00:09:40,471 --> 00:09:42,673
He's using us to run clinical trials.

139
00:09:42,673 --> 00:09:46,184
Oh, shame on him, saving lives like that.

140
00:09:46,184 --> 00:09:49,119
It's unethical.

141
00:09:49,119 --> 00:09:52,316
Oh, are you coming in too? I thought I had you convinced.

142
00:09:52,316 --> 00:09:54,882
Clinical trials save thousands of lives.

143
00:09:54,882 --> 00:09:56,952
He's using patients as guinea pigs.

144
00:09:56,952 --> 00:09:59,691
Pharmaceutical companies do that every day.

145
00:09:59,691 --> 00:10:02,962
Are we a pharmaceutical company? We're gonna wind up pressuring desperate patients...

146
00:10:02,962 --> 00:10:05,230
Into choices that are bad for them, good for us.

147
00:10:05,230 --> 00:10:08,762
- We're gonna compromise patient care.
- Who the hell am I talking to?

148
00:10:08,762 --> 00:10:11,207
Suddenly ethical lapses are a major concern for you?

149
00:10:12,278 --> 00:10:14,769
What's interesting is it suddenly doesn't bother you.

150
00:10:16,215 --> 00:10:22,280
So, if you ignore ethics to save one person it's admirable, but if you do it to save a thousand, you're a bastard.

151
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,620
All he's done is taken your game and gone pro.

152
00:10:27,660 --> 00:10:31,596
He's not gonna kill a few patients. He's gonna kill this hospital.

153
00:10:31,596 --> 00:10:34,861
It took him three seconds to size you up.

154
00:10:34,861 --> 00:10:37,732
And surprise, he doesn't like you.

155
00:10:38,804 --> 00:10:40,931
Wear the damn coat.

156
00:10:47,246 --> 00:10:51,410
Hello. I'm, uh, Dr. Foreman. I work with Dr. House.

157
00:10:51,410 --> 00:10:53,418
Our initial tests say you're fine.

158
00:10:53,418 --> 00:10:56,580
We think you had a clot, but it resolved on its own.

159
00:10:56,580 --> 00:11:00,183
So, we're gonna keep you overnight to be safe, and you can go back home tomorrow...

160
00:11:00,183 --> 00:11:02,784
Or back to work.

161
00:11:03,863 --> 00:11:06,491
Hey, are you okay?

162
00:11:09,869 --> 00:11:13,828
Get in here! I need a line in her. IV morphine, stat!

163
00:11:25,451 --> 00:11:27,351
You get any read on the new chairman of the board?

164
00:11:27,351 --> 00:11:30,685
- Yeah, he took your parking space.
- It's not necessarily bad news.

165
00:11:30,685 --> 00:11:32,951
Do you ever watch Gilligan's Island reruns...

166
00:11:32,951 --> 00:11:35,926
And really, really think they're gonna get off the island this time?

167
00:11:38,130 --> 00:11:40,098
We should introduce ourselves. It couldn't hurt.

168
00:11:40,098 --> 00:11:45,468
Make him a Bundt cake. A patient hit a 10 on the pain scale. What would explain that?

169
00:11:45,468 --> 00:11:47,631
There was no clot in her leg. The angio was totally clean.

170
00:11:47,631 --> 00:11:49,402
What about the muscle biopsy?

171
00:11:49,402 --> 00:11:51,705
No neurogenic or myopathic abnormalities.

172
00:11:51,705 --> 00:11:56,612
She was also negative for trichinosis. No toxoplasmosis or polyarteritis nodosa.

173
00:11:56,612 --> 00:11:59,082
Robert, what was her sedimentation rate?

174
00:12:00,219 --> 00:12:02,153
Normal, Allison.

175
00:12:02,153 --> 00:12:05,054
Therefore, no inflammation, no immunologic response.

176
00:12:05,054 --> 00:12:07,718
Do you mind sharing that number with me?

177
00:12:07,718 --> 00:12:09,784
Fifteen, Allison.

178
00:12:09,784 --> 00:12:13,127
- Are you mocking me?
- Duh, Allison.

179
00:12:13,127 --> 00:12:17,226
I'm just suggesting we look outside the box. What if her sed rate is elevated?

180
00:12:17,226 --> 00:12:21,399
Well, let's go further outside the box. Let's say the angio revealed a clot.

181
00:12:21,399 --> 00:12:23,772
And then let's say we treated that clot,

182
00:12:23,772 --> 00:12:25,936
and now she's all better and personally thanked me by performing...

183
00:12:25,936 --> 00:12:27,911
My Aunt Elyssa lives in Philadelphia.

184
00:12:27,911 --> 00:12:31,916
Oh, it's story time. Let me get my "Baba."

185
00:12:31,916 --> 00:12:36,080
Her normal temperature is 96.2, not 98.6 like you and me.

186
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,521
If her temperature were 98.6, she'd have a fever.

187
00:12:40,059 --> 00:12:44,587
I'm just wondering if you think we could apply the same logic to Carly's sed rate.

188
00:12:46,365 --> 00:12:48,925
It's absurd.

189
00:12:48,925 --> 00:12:51,526
I love it.

190
00:12:51,526 --> 00:12:54,300
If 15 is high for Carly, then she has inflammation.

191
00:12:54,300 --> 00:12:57,672
Which could, in turn, mean cancer. I'll talk to Wilson.

192
00:12:58,677 --> 00:13:01,840
Next time, skip Aunt Elyssa.

193
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,382
You're probably talking about a primary bone cancer.

194
00:13:04,382 --> 00:13:06,714
It could be tricky to detect. We'll need a bone scan.

195
00:13:06,714 --> 00:13:08,947
That's why I'm talking to an oncologist.

196
00:13:08,947 --> 00:13:14,015
Sure. I've nothing better to do besides departmental meetings and budget reports.

197
00:13:14,015 --> 00:13:17,688
- New chairman of the board, you know.
- Oh, I hadn't heard.

198
00:13:17,688 --> 00:13:20,630
- Right. Clinical trials.
- Completely unethical.

199
00:13:20,630 --> 00:13:24,965
And a very bad omen for you. There's not much money in curing African sleeping sickness.

200
00:13:24,965 --> 00:13:28,131
No. I have seen every scary movie ever made.

201
00:13:28,131 --> 00:13:30,266
Six-year-old twins in front of an elevator of blood.

202
00:13:30,266 --> 00:13:32,572
Boys' choirs. Those are bad omens.

203
00:13:32,572 --> 00:13:36,741
This is much more mundane. A billionaire wants to get laid.

204
00:13:36,741 --> 00:13:39,046
Billionaires buy movie studios to get laid.

205
00:13:39,046 --> 00:13:41,052
They buy hospitals to get respect.

206
00:13:41,052 --> 00:13:44,248
- And the reason you want respect?
- To get laid.

207
00:13:44,248 --> 00:13:46,655
Okay then. Just gotta think like a billionaire.

208
00:13:46,655 --> 00:13:49,387
Let's see. There'll be big, scary changes and then...

209
00:13:49,387 --> 00:13:54,558
"Oh, Dr. Cameron, we should have dinner to discuss your future on my G5 private jet."

210
00:13:54,558 --> 00:13:56,931
Come on. You know how good you have it here.

211
00:13:56,931 --> 00:14:00,301
Yes, I'm the big Pooh-bah, the big cheese, the go-to guy.

212
00:14:00,301 --> 00:14:02,772
You do the cases you wanna do when you wanna do them.

213
00:14:02,772 --> 00:14:05,367
- You're not gonna have that anywhere else. 
- Relax.

214
00:14:05,367 --> 00:14:08,038
I've been through three regime changes in this hospital. Every time same story.

215
00:14:08,038 --> 00:14:10,673
Just keep your head down. That's all I'm saying.

216
00:14:10,673 --> 00:14:14,241
- And put on your coat.
- It itches.

217
00:14:14,241 --> 00:14:17,778
So, you gonna do this bone scan for me, or what?

218
00:14:17,778 --> 00:14:18,778
Yes.

219
00:14:30,603 --> 00:14:35,905
Dr. Simpson. Did you hear? New management.

220
00:14:35,905 --> 00:14:38,375
I'm thinking of switching to orthopedics.

221
00:14:38,375 --> 00:14:42,437
How much do you guys get for a massage now? Without the happy ending.

222
00:14:42,437 --> 00:14:46,041
- Dr. House, what do you want?
- Do you remember a guy named Van Der Meer?

223
00:14:46,041 --> 00:14:48,450
Not a big talker. You fixed his ACL.

224
00:14:48,450 --> 00:14:50,488
No, not according to my medical malpractice premiums.

225
00:14:52,057 --> 00:14:54,685
Didn't get hypotensive during surgery?

226
00:14:54,685 --> 00:14:57,558
No strokes? Maybe some connectivity loss?

227
00:14:57,558 --> 00:15:00,360
- What, you're gonna get involved now?
- I'm not involved.

228
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,663
- A guy brought his son into the clinic.
- I didn't touch the son.

229
00:15:03,663 --> 00:15:06,398
- I'm not taking any responsibility there.
- The son's fine. Can't shut him up.

230
00:15:06,398 --> 00:15:10,169
Dad show any symptoms of cortical disease? Wernicke's?

231
00:15:11,710 --> 00:15:14,042
No. Nothing.

232
00:15:14,042 --> 00:15:17,048
That's why we settled because we couldn't find anything.

233
00:15:17,048 --> 00:15:19,346
The guy got over a million dollars. Don't tell me he's complaining.

234
00:15:19,346 --> 00:15:21,909
He's not saying boo.

235
00:15:26,091 --> 00:15:28,321
Your father wants to know when you'll be back from your trip.

236
00:15:28,321 --> 00:15:31,761
E-mail back it's taking longer than I thought.

237
00:15:31,761 --> 00:15:34,697
- He doesn't need to see me like this.
- What about your brother?

238
00:15:34,697 --> 00:15:38,703
- No.
- Hello. I'm Dr. Wilson. I was-

239
00:15:38,703 --> 00:15:41,137
- Um, Robin, I'm gonna need a minute.
- Oh.

240
00:15:43,208 --> 00:15:45,870
Thank you.

241
00:15:51,684 --> 00:15:56,849
There are two Dr. Wilsons in this hospital, one in ophthalmology and one in cancer.

242
00:15:56,849 --> 00:16:01,950
My eyes are fine, so I'm guessing you're here to tell me that I have cancer.

243
00:16:01,950 --> 00:16:04,689
There is no cancer in your bone.

244
00:16:04,689 --> 00:16:06,697
You're not smiling.

245
00:16:08,067 --> 00:16:11,696
There's something called referred pain. You could have cancer in one part of your body...

246
00:16:11,696 --> 00:16:14,034
That presents in another.

247
00:16:14,034 --> 00:16:17,075
Given your age and your family history, I'm thinking your colon.

248
00:16:17,075 --> 00:16:17,795
Great.

249
00:16:22,214 --> 00:16:25,843
I was at Columbia when my mom died. Now there's a blast.

250
00:16:25,843 --> 00:16:28,682
Cleaning up her vomit, and then running to my econ final.

251
00:16:28,682 --> 00:16:30,881
Look.

252
00:16:30,881 --> 00:16:33,823
If I'm a short-timer, give me drugs. I'll go back to work. I'll die there.

253
00:16:33,823 --> 00:16:37,988
Whoa. There's a very quick test to see if you even have it... a colonoscopy.

254
00:16:37,988 --> 00:16:41,157
I know how you do that test.

255
00:16:41,157 --> 00:16:44,896
If you have colon cancer, we can treat it. It's early.

256
00:16:44,896 --> 00:16:48,497
That's what they told my mom. She was dead six months later.

257
00:16:51,543 --> 00:16:55,172
You're a smart person about to make a very bad decision.

258
00:16:55,172 --> 00:16:58,341
You know, cancer treatment's come a long way in 12 years, but if you don't do this now-

259
00:16:58,341 --> 00:17:00,851
I don't wanna be looked at.

260
00:17:09,495 --> 00:17:13,124
There is another way.

261
00:17:13,124 --> 00:17:15,632
We could do a virtual colonoscopy.

262
00:17:15,632 --> 00:17:20,229
Basically, we do a CT scan of your colon. It's noninvasive.

263
00:17:20,229 --> 00:17:23,433
But it's very expensive. I'm assuming that's not a problem.

264
00:17:28,380 --> 00:17:30,314
Say yes.

265
00:17:33,952 --> 00:17:35,920
Dr. Becker-

266
00:17:37,823 --> 00:17:39,688
Mr. Van Der Meer.

267
00:17:39,688 --> 00:17:40,938
What?

268
00:17:42,697 --> 00:17:45,326
What’s wrong with Ricky?

269
00:17:45,697 --> 00:17:49,326
Relax. Ricky's gonna be just "finkf." Strep throat.

270
00:17:49,326 --> 00:17:52,893
Here's a prescription for an antibiotic. He should be all better in a few days.

271
00:17:52,893 --> 00:17:56,930
Although, this might sting a little.

272
00:18:10,322 --> 00:18:13,086
I wanna see you again real soon.

273
00:18:14,660 --> 00:18:17,026
Virtual colonoscopy was clean.

274
00:18:17,026 --> 00:18:19,155
No colon cancer.

275
00:18:19,155 --> 00:18:21,358
What happened to our regular, old-fashioned colonoscopy?

276
00:18:21,358 --> 00:18:25,335
She was uncomfortable doing any more tests. I had to convince her to do that one.

277
00:18:25,335 --> 00:18:29,465
Do you get that often? Women would rather die than get naked with you?

278
00:18:29,465 --> 00:18:31,805
She's scared.

279
00:18:32,878 --> 00:18:37,042
But not of tests. Just embarrassing ones.

280
00:18:37,042 --> 00:18:38,845
Yeah.

281
00:18:42,988 --> 00:18:47,687
It's not an inflammatory process. It's not a clot, because Chase's angio says so.

282
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,389
And it's not cancer, because her tush is perfect.

283
00:18:52,389 --> 00:18:56,298
Anybody else got an Aunt Elyssa with weird stuff?

284
00:18:58,437 --> 00:19:00,735
Maybe it's worth looking into-

285
00:19:00,735 --> 00:19:03,036
I thought you said Carly's angio was clean.

286
00:19:03,036 --> 00:19:06,544
It was clean.

287
00:19:13,952 --> 00:19:15,886
You guys see the problem here?

288
00:19:18,056 --> 00:19:21,184
There's no indication of any abnormalities.

289
00:19:21,184 --> 00:19:23,194
No lesions, no spurs, no mastis-

290
00:19:23,194 --> 00:19:27,756
Her toes are screwed up. They're backwards.

291
00:19:27,756 --> 00:19:31,166
You guys know how much surgery it's gonna take to swap 'em back?

292
00:19:31,166 --> 00:19:32,999
What are you talking about?

293
00:19:32,999 --> 00:19:37,201
Well, either she literally has two left feet, or you angioed the wrong leg.

294
00:19:44,850 --> 00:19:47,011
- That's impossible. It can't be-
- Or maybe it was Jenny.

295
00:19:47,011 --> 00:19:51,044
How come some resident signed this radiology report? Were you even in the room?

296
00:19:51,044 --> 00:19:53,182
- I'll redo her angio-
- You'll do nothing!

297
00:19:58,664 --> 00:20:01,224
Foreman, you do the angiogram.

298
00:20:13,545 --> 00:20:15,479
I can't believe I did that.

299
00:20:19,885 --> 00:20:22,877
Why do we have to redo the angiogram?

300
00:20:22,877 --> 00:20:26,391
- There was a shadow on the first test result.
- Shadow?

301
00:20:27,693 --> 00:20:29,718
A shadow means there could be a blood clot, right?

302
00:20:31,396 --> 00:20:34,422
I read Conn's Current Therapy.

303
00:20:34,422 --> 00:20:38,299
A real page-turner. No, it wasn't that kind of shadow.

304
00:20:40,806 --> 00:20:44,105
- My chest hurts.
- It's from the tracer I injected.

305
00:20:44,105 --> 00:20:49,011
You might also get a little nauseous or have a metallic taste. All normal.

306
00:20:49,011 --> 00:20:52,141
I'm a runner. I shouldn't feel like this.

307
00:20:52,141 --> 00:20:54,515
Carly, I'm looking at your vitals right now and-

308
00:20:54,515 --> 00:20:56,577
- I can't breathe.
- Carly?

309
00:20:58,357 --> 00:20:59,984
My chest.

310
00:21:03,362 --> 00:21:05,296
My chest.

311
00:21:08,734 --> 00:21:10,998
Respiratory arrest. Call code.

312
00:21:10,998 --> 00:21:13,299
- What do you got?
- She's drowning.

313
00:21:31,123 --> 00:21:34,092
Foreman did a thoracentesis to drain the fluid from her lungs.

314
00:21:34,092 --> 00:21:37,686
She's stable. They sent the fluid to the lab. It'll be back in a few hours.

315
00:21:38,764 --> 00:21:42,495
You'll be happy to know Chase's mistake didn't cost her. Angio revealed no clot.

316
00:21:43,802 --> 00:21:45,736
I'm thrilled.

317
00:23:31,743 --> 00:23:33,938
Okay, see, now you're just being stubborn.

318
00:23:33,938 --> 00:23:36,674
It's cold. It's a perfectly good excuse to wear your lab coat.

319
00:23:36,674 --> 00:23:38,682
Carly needs a heart transplant.

320
00:23:40,085 --> 00:23:42,713
Thoracentesis revealed a transudate?

321
00:23:42,713 --> 00:23:44,949
I haven't gotten it back yet.

322
00:23:44,949 --> 00:23:48,288
Her MUGA scan, what was the ejection fraction?

323
00:23:48,288 --> 00:23:52,126
- Maybe you could treat it surgically. 
- I haven't done the MUGA.

324
00:23:52,126 --> 00:23:54,495
How do you know she needs a heart transplant?

325
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,534
I got my aura read today.

326
00:23:57,534 --> 00:24:00,070
It said someone close to me had a broken heart.

327
00:24:00,070 --> 00:24:02,572
Since when do I need the secret pass code to talk to you?

328
00:24:02,572 --> 00:24:06,008
I can't tell you anything. Professional responsibility.

329
00:24:06,008 --> 00:24:08,136
Like that matters to you.

330
00:24:08,136 --> 00:24:11,182
Not my professional responsibility, yours.

331
00:24:11,182 --> 00:24:13,774
New regime. You gotta keep your head down too.

332
00:24:13,774 --> 00:24:16,412
Now that's good thinking, because I was gonna go right to Cuddy...

333
00:24:16,412 --> 00:24:18,422
And rat you out as soon as you were done talking.

334
00:24:18,422 --> 00:24:20,822
I'm not saying you want to. I'm saying you'd be obligated to.

335
00:24:20,822 --> 00:24:23,326
Because of my position on the board?

336
00:24:27,466 --> 00:24:29,900
Because of my position on the transplant committee?

337
00:24:32,337 --> 00:24:35,238
Hey, you brought this up for a reason. You need to talk to me.

338
00:24:35,238 --> 00:24:37,673
I can't.

339
00:24:41,947 --> 00:24:43,778
You sure you're doing the right thing?

340
00:24:43,778 --> 00:24:47,250
I've come up with a few really great rationalizations.

341
00:24:47,250 --> 00:24:50,254
Sorry to interrupt. We have a problem.

342
00:24:50,254 --> 00:24:52,517
Thoracentesis revealed a transudate.

343
00:24:52,517 --> 00:24:55,856
We did an echo. She's in severe congestive heart failure.

344
00:24:55,856 --> 00:24:59,192
She needs a heart transplant.

345
00:25:00,499 --> 00:25:03,866
- We'll get her on the list immediately.
- She's already on the list.

346
00:25:11,307 --> 00:25:12,267
Come in.

347
00:25:14,045 --> 00:25:14,885
Thanks.

348
00:25:16,915 --> 00:25:19,975
What is a department of Diagnostic Medicine?

349
00:25:21,853 --> 00:25:23,878
That's Dr. House's department.

350
00:25:23,878 --> 00:25:27,413
They deal with cases that other doctors can't figure out.

351
00:25:28,493 --> 00:25:30,620
It's a financial black hole.

352
00:25:30,620 --> 00:25:32,890
The department costs us three million a year...

353
00:25:32,890 --> 00:25:35,455
To treat one patient a week.

354
00:25:35,455 --> 00:25:37,502
- He saves one patient per week.
- What about everyone else?

355
00:25:37,502 --> 00:25:40,003
His department's not going to find the cure for breast cancer.

356
00:25:40,003 --> 00:25:43,438
- Uh, maybe not, but-
- Are you sleeping with House?

357
00:25:43,438 --> 00:25:47,239
- What? No.
- But you did. Right?

358
00:25:47,239 --> 00:25:50,042
A long time ago?

359
00:25:50,042 --> 00:25:52,174
That's an incredibly inappropriate question.

360
00:25:52,174 --> 00:25:56,653
If your judgment is compromised by a prior or current relationship, that is my business.

361
00:25:56,653 --> 00:25:59,189
I respect him. That is all you need to know.

362
00:25:59,189 --> 00:26:01,691
He's still not wearing the coat.

363
00:26:01,691 --> 00:26:04,524
- Well, I told him...
- I'm sure you did.

364
00:26:04,524 --> 00:26:09,192
And yet he's not wearing it. I'm just wondering if that's a reflection on him...

365
00:26:09,192 --> 00:26:11,292
Or on you.

366
00:26:24,916 --> 00:26:26,850
You're Dr. House.

367
00:26:26,850 --> 00:26:30,354
- I found a picture online of you at a conference. 
- You need a heart transplant.

368
00:26:31,756 --> 00:26:34,224
- I run. I work out-
- You cut yourself.

369
00:26:36,094 --> 00:26:38,562
Probably highly ritualized.

370
00:26:38,562 --> 00:26:42,157
You play the same Sarah McLachlan song over and over while you do it.

371
00:26:42,157 --> 00:26:44,531
Probably works better than antidepressants.

372
00:26:45,670 --> 00:26:50,073
- I don't understand how that-
- You're a high-powered bulimic. You make yourself throw up.

373
00:26:51,142 --> 00:26:56,478
You had to find the most efficient way to vomit without revealing the telltale signs of bulimia,

374
00:26:56,478 --> 00:27:00,143
which is all, ooh, very unseemly for a CEO.

375
00:27:00,143 --> 00:27:05,155
So, you found a common antidote to accidental poisoning to do the job-

376
00:27:05,155 --> 00:27:07,157
Ipecac.

377
00:27:07,157 --> 00:27:12,828
Which is great if your kid's just swallowed a bottle of aspirin, but really, really bad if it's a habit.

378
00:27:14,132 --> 00:27:16,066
It causes muscle damage.

379
00:27:16,066 --> 00:27:18,295
It caused the pain in your leg.

380
00:27:20,905 --> 00:27:23,271
And destroyed your heart.

381
00:27:25,910 --> 00:27:28,401
How often do you do it?

382
00:27:33,985 --> 00:27:36,419
Three times a week.

383
00:27:39,591 --> 00:27:44,187
In about an hour, there's gonna be an emergency meeting of the transplant committee...

384
00:27:44,187 --> 00:27:47,959
To discuss where you fall on the list should a new heart become available.

385
00:27:47,959 --> 00:27:52,732
Problem is, I am required to tell the committee about your bulimia.

386
00:27:52,732 --> 00:27:57,969
It's a major psychiatric condition. Ranks right up there with suicidal. Makes you a very bad risk.

387
00:27:57,969 --> 00:28:02,275
So, you're here to tell me I have just a few hours to live?

388
00:28:03,915 --> 00:28:06,042
Unless I lie to the committee.

389
00:28:08,019 --> 00:28:11,318
But if they find out, I lose my medical license.

390
00:28:13,958 --> 00:28:17,189
This would be a very good time to offer me a bribe.

391
00:28:17,189 --> 00:28:19,822
You know, how much is your life worth? How much is my job worth?

392
00:28:19,822 --> 00:28:25,097
Why are you here doing this to me? What do you want?

393
00:28:25,097 --> 00:28:29,630
I wanna know what's right.

394
00:28:29,630 --> 00:28:31,733
Am I worth it?

395
00:28:33,478 --> 00:28:35,412
You think I'm pathetic.

396
00:28:36,481 --> 00:28:39,348
Has a good job. Everything in the world.

397
00:28:39,348 --> 00:28:42,250
But she just doesn't like the way that she looks.

398
00:28:42,250 --> 00:28:44,618
Oh, stop hiding!

399
00:28:44,618 --> 00:28:47,817
I'm asking you if you wanna live or die? You can't even say that.

400
00:28:47,817 --> 00:28:50,759
- What do you want me to do? Cry?
- Yes.

401
00:28:50,759 --> 00:28:54,287
I want you to tell me that your life is important to you, because I don't know.

402
00:28:59,204 --> 00:29:04,437
Because that's what's on the table right now... your life.

403
00:29:21,159 --> 00:29:23,320
I don't wanna die.

404
00:29:26,698 --> 00:29:28,632
I don't.

405
00:29:36,307 --> 00:29:39,799
This 32-year-old female was admitted by my staff...

406
00:29:39,799 --> 00:29:42,608
Because of paralysis and pain in her right thigh.

407
00:29:42,608 --> 00:29:47,379
The patient rapidly deteriorated and now has severe congestive heart failure.

408
00:29:47,379 --> 00:29:50,421
Pressors and vasodilators have not improved her condition whatsoever.

409
00:29:50,421 --> 00:29:54,356
Pulmonary function tests show an FEC of over three liters,

410
00:29:54,356 --> 00:29:58,156
with FEV -1 of at least 90% of predicted...

411
00:29:58,156 --> 00:30:02,928
And preserved FED/FEC ratio and preserved DLCO as well.

412
00:30:02,928 --> 00:30:08,871
Her MUGA had an ejection fraction of 19% with no focal wall motion abnormalities.

413
00:30:08,871 --> 00:30:14,003
Heart catheterization revealed clean left, right and circumflex arteries.

414
00:30:14,003 --> 00:30:18,276
And a subsequent biopsy revealed irreversible cardiomyopathy.

415
00:30:18,276 --> 00:30:20,647
Which is why we're here.

416
00:30:20,647 --> 00:30:24,449
Uh, Dr. House, I'm confused by your time and date stamps.

417
00:30:24,449 --> 00:30:28,219
It appears that you put Carly on the transplant list before you did these tests.

418
00:30:30,862 --> 00:30:33,262
I had a hunch.

419
00:30:33,262 --> 00:30:35,959
You don't have hunches. You know.

420
00:30:35,959 --> 00:30:39,197
Look, if the tests had come back differently, obviously I would have taken her off the list.

421
00:30:39,197 --> 00:30:41,204
But on the long shot-

422
00:30:43,608 --> 00:30:47,977
On the long shot that I was right, I didn't want to waste time.

423
00:30:51,282 --> 00:30:53,614
Is there any exclusion criteria we should know about?

424
00:30:55,954 --> 00:31:00,050
CAT scan revealed no tumors, and Dr. Wilson found no trace of cancer.

425
00:31:02,627 --> 00:31:04,492
What about any other criteria?

426
00:31:04,492 --> 00:31:07,895
- No atherosclerotic vascular disease.
- Are there any-

427
00:31:07,895 --> 00:31:12,665
No pneumonia, no bacteremia. No hep "B" or "C" or any other letters.

428
00:31:12,665 --> 00:31:14,830
Substance abuse. Any history-

429
00:31:14,830 --> 00:31:16,840
No alcohol. No drugs.

430
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:21,106
- Any psychiatric conditions? History of depression?
- She's a little blue.

431
00:31:21,106 --> 00:31:25,115
But turns out she needs a heart transplant, so-

432
00:31:32,423 --> 00:31:38,094
Dr. House, if you subvert or mislead this committee, you will be subject to disciplinary action.

433
00:31:43,167 --> 00:31:46,534
Dr. Cuddy, do you have reason to think that I would lie?

434
00:31:46,534 --> 00:31:50,165
I simply want you to answer the question.

435
00:31:50,165 --> 00:31:53,642
Is there anything on the recipient exclusion criteria...

436
00:31:53,642 --> 00:31:57,875
That would disqualify your patient from getting a heart?

437
00:32:08,626 --> 00:32:09,376
No.

438
00:32:18,136 --> 00:32:21,037
Beautiful organ donor weather.

439
00:32:21,037 --> 00:32:23,039
You lied, didn't you?

440
00:32:23,039 --> 00:32:25,507
- I never lie. 
- Big mistake.

441
00:32:25,507 --> 00:32:28,443
Then you should have voted against putting her on the list.

442
00:32:28,443 --> 00:32:32,813
- You're my friend.
- Oh, geez, have some backbone.

443
00:32:32,813 --> 00:32:34,818
If you think I'm wrong, do something.

444
00:32:34,818 --> 00:32:37,047
Wait. You're getting mad at me for sticking up for you?

445
00:32:37,047 --> 00:32:41,114
You value our friendship more than your ethical responsibilities.

446
00:32:41,114 --> 00:32:43,990
Our friendship is an ethical responsibility.

447
00:32:49,133 --> 00:32:50,964
What is it?

448
00:32:52,470 --> 00:32:54,870
My patient's getting a heart.

449
00:33:07,585 --> 00:33:09,553
He's not gonna fire you.

450
00:33:09,553 --> 00:33:11,986
I'd fire you. Bye-bye.

451
00:33:13,758 --> 00:33:17,023
I screw up, the patient dies, I'll never get another job.

452
00:33:17,023 --> 00:33:19,996
So stick your head between your legs and go lick your wounds in Gstaad.

453
00:33:21,332 --> 00:33:23,357
Well, I like it here.

454
00:33:29,674 --> 00:33:32,837
You guys don't think it's weird House knew the patient needed a heart transplant...

455
00:33:32,837 --> 00:33:34,878
Before we did any heart tests?

456
00:33:36,014 --> 00:33:38,073
That's House. He knows things.

457
00:33:38,073 --> 00:33:40,014
But usually he's putting it in our face.

458
00:33:40,014 --> 00:33:42,211
Telling us how cleverly he figured it out.

459
00:33:42,211 --> 00:33:45,187
This time nothing. Just had a hunch.

460
00:33:47,458 --> 00:33:49,392
That is weird.

461
00:34:21,793 --> 00:34:24,091
Cauterize that one bleeder.

462
00:34:28,900 --> 00:34:31,095
Okay, ready for the donor heart.

463
00:34:36,607 --> 00:34:39,940
They just stopped Carly's heart, and your dumb patient-

464
00:34:39,940 --> 00:34:42,946
- They're all... oh, the guy who can't talk. 
- Mr. Van Der Meer.

465
00:34:42,946 --> 00:34:46,108
- He's scheduled an appointment to see you.
- Oh, goody.

466
00:34:48,486 --> 00:34:53,185
I wanted you to know Chase is worried you're going to fire him.

467
00:34:53,185 --> 00:34:56,090
It's bad enough that screwups cost lives.

468
00:34:56,090 --> 00:34:58,321
Now we've got Vogler, screwups cost jobs.

469
00:34:58,321 --> 00:35:00,489
I want Chase scared.

470
00:35:00,489 --> 00:35:03,159
I want him doing everything he can to protect his job.

471
00:35:03,159 --> 00:35:07,102
Dr. House, if you were in his position, wouldn't you be more likely to perform well if you were reassured-

472
00:35:07,102 --> 00:35:11,540
Oh, will you stop it with the book? Why are you doing this?

473
00:35:12,643 --> 00:35:15,612
- I'm not doing anything.
- You're manipulating everyone.

474
00:35:18,549 --> 00:35:22,383
People... dismiss me.

475
00:35:23,421 --> 00:35:26,948
Because I'm a woman. Because I'm pretty.

476
00:35:26,948 --> 00:35:30,482
Because... I'm not aggressive.

477
00:35:31,863 --> 00:35:35,731
My opinions shouldn't be rejected just because people don't like me.

478
00:35:35,731 --> 00:35:37,495
They like you.

479
00:35:38,803 --> 00:35:40,703
Everyone likes you.

480
00:35:42,707 --> 00:35:44,470
Do you?

481
00:36:03,794 --> 00:36:05,762
I have to know.

482
00:36:07,064 --> 00:36:08,361
No.

483
00:36:16,774 --> 00:36:18,708
Okay.

484
00:36:36,761 --> 00:36:40,492
Five hours, 23 minutes. That's fast.

485
00:36:40,492 --> 00:36:43,090
- Is that good or bad?
- It depends.

486
00:36:43,090 --> 00:36:46,466
Either surgery went really well, or it ended really abruptly.

487
00:36:49,507 --> 00:36:52,374
Textbook. She'll outlive us all.

488
00:36:53,544 --> 00:36:55,478
Thank you.

489
00:37:06,824 --> 00:37:09,952
So, sing for me.

490
00:37:13,164 --> 00:37:15,564
Oh, no, no, no, no. Come on, look.

491
00:37:15,564 --> 00:37:19,501
When you had your surgery, you were intubated. The surgeon stuck a tube down your throat.

492
00:37:19,501 --> 00:37:22,733
Now, it never happens and it's never caught, but it happened.

493
00:37:22,733 --> 00:37:27,335
Your vocal cords were paralyzed. I treated the spastic dysphonia with Botox.

494
00:37:27,335 --> 00:37:30,676
Ironically, a substance that tightens every other corner of your face.

495
00:37:30,676 --> 00:37:34,775
It actually loosens the tongue. I have healed you. You can talk.

496
00:37:40,691 --> 00:37:42,625
Oh, well.

497
00:37:42,625 --> 00:37:43,625
Boo!

498
00:37:47,930 --> 00:37:48,880
Okay.

499
00:37:48,899 --> 00:37:51,993
You don't have to say anything. It can be our little secret.

500
00:37:51,993 --> 00:37:55,527
If you can talk, blink twice.

501
00:37:58,442 --> 00:38:00,808
But you're not going to,

502
00:38:00,808 --> 00:38:05,440
because you think you won't be entitled to the money you won in the settlement with Simpson.

503
00:38:08,185 --> 00:38:10,551
Yesterday, I would have said you had to give the money back.

504
00:38:10,551 --> 00:38:15,718
Today, hospital's come into a lot of money.

505
00:38:15,718 --> 00:38:17,727
Mum's the word.

506
00:38:54,165 --> 00:38:55,165
Hey.

507
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:57,400
Hey.

508
00:39:00,838 --> 00:39:07,338
I know the cardiologist has given you some guidelines, a schedule of medication and a strict diet.

509
00:39:07,338 --> 00:39:11,939
Just what somebody with an eating disorder needs.

510
00:39:11,939 --> 00:39:14,746
So I thought I'd get you started.

511
00:39:14,746 --> 00:39:17,287
Fried chicken from the Carnegie Deli.

512
00:39:19,690 --> 00:39:22,090
- You're kidding.
- Yeah.

513
00:39:22,090 --> 00:39:24,093
Actually, I got it downstairs.

514
00:39:29,300 --> 00:39:32,701
Why did you fight for me?

515
00:39:32,701 --> 00:39:36,467
You risked so much, and you hardly know me.

516
00:39:42,313 --> 00:39:44,247
You're my patient.

517
00:39:48,486 --> 00:39:51,751
Don't screw it up.

518
00:40:37,368 --> 00:40:39,495
Love this part!

519
00:40:45,743 --> 00:40:49,144
Okay. He ruined it.

520
00:40:49,144 --> 00:40:53,513
Just wanted to stop by and introduce myself. I'm Edward Vogler, new chairman of the board.

521
00:40:53,513 --> 00:40:55,518
In a way, I guess that makes me your boss.

522
00:40:57,421 --> 00:41:01,721
I am sorry about the lab coat thing. My dry cleaners just destroyed it.

523
00:41:03,527 --> 00:41:07,122
That was my very first heart transplant committee meeting. Very exciting.

524
00:41:07,122 --> 00:41:10,497
Trust me, Six Flags- way more exciting.

525
00:41:10,497 --> 00:41:14,698
Your patient's very lucky to have such a passionate doctor. Stands up for what he believes in.

526
00:41:14,698 --> 00:41:16,740
Sweet of you to say.

527
00:41:16,740 --> 00:41:19,139
Yeah. Afraid you've been duped though.

528
00:41:19,139 --> 00:41:23,510
The nurse found this in the patient's purse.

529
00:41:28,285 --> 00:41:31,152
Oh, my. If only I'd known.

530
00:41:31,152 --> 00:41:34,658
Tough being a doctor, having all that power.

531
00:41:34,658 --> 00:41:36,659
The power to play God.

532
00:41:36,659 --> 00:41:40,754
Yes. I don't envy the transplant committee their responsibility.

533
00:41:40,754 --> 00:41:44,597
They basically would have been forced to kill that poor girl.

534
00:41:44,597 --> 00:41:46,761
I'm not sure I could have done that.

535
00:41:48,339 --> 00:41:50,864
This is not a game to me, Dr. House.

536
00:41:50,864 --> 00:41:55,901
No. It's actually more like we're dancing right now.

537
00:41:55,901 --> 00:41:58,005
So let's get to the point. You don't like me.

538
00:41:58,005 --> 00:42:01,711
I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna like you. It's nothing personal.

539
00:42:01,711 --> 00:42:04,447
I don't like anybody.

540
00:42:04,447 --> 00:42:06,456
But none of that really matters, does it?

541
00:42:06,456 --> 00:42:09,254
Because you've got money, and I've got tenure.

542
00:42:09,254 --> 00:42:13,558
You need full board approval to get rid of me. I've got Cuddy.

543
00:42:13,558 --> 00:42:16,099
- Right.
- And Wilson.

544
00:42:16,099 --> 00:42:19,761
So, as long as we're stuck with each other,

545
00:42:19,761 --> 00:42:22,032
we might as well ignore each other.

546
00:42:28,445 --> 00:42:30,470
That wasn't nearly as dramatic as I was hoping.

547
00:42:34,385 --> 00:42:37,354
I looked into that tenure thing, and you're right.

548
00:42:37,354 --> 00:42:41,084
It's actually easier for me to get rid of a board member like Cuddy or Wilson...

549
00:42:41,084 --> 00:42:43,592
Than to get rid of a doctor.

550
00:42:43,592 --> 00:42:46,789
That's interesting, isn't it?

551
00:44:09,380 --> 00:44:10,642
That's some bad hat, Harry.

552
00:43:30,380 --> 00:43:35,180
