1
00:00:33,860 --> 00:00:36,480
You made your point. Now how 'bout letting us do our jobs?

2
00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:39,760
Our point'll be made when your company stops tearing down this mountain.

3
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,540
Then who's gonna feed our kids? You?

4
00:00:41,540 --> 00:00:45,290
If you really cared about your kids, you'd want them to have air to breathe when they grow up.

5
00:00:45,290 --> 00:00:46,850
What'd you say, you son of a bitch?

6
00:00:46,850 --> 00:00:48,920
You guys aren't the problem.

7
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:50,840
You're being hurt more than anyone.

8
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:52,670
You breathe in that coal dust.

9
00:00:52,670 --> 00:00:55,690
Coal is the dirtiest energy on earth.

10
00:00:57,450 --> 00:00:58,720
Gonna need some backup.

11
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:00,710
Not enough for you thugs to assault the environment?

12
00:01:00,710 --> 00:01:03,410
Doug, please, don't.

13
00:01:05,020 --> 00:01:07,900
Susan? Susan! You okay?

14
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,360
She needs to get to a hospital.

15
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,090
She's just dehydrated. We have medics here.

16
00:01:15,090 --> 00:01:18,030
- Let 'em give her fluids.
- She has no pulse.

17
00:01:18,820 --> 00:01:21,110
Either unhook your arm, or I'm gonna break it off.

18
00:01:21,110 --> 00:01:23,050
Either way, this protest is over.

19
00:01:23,050 --> 00:01:25,490
Protest is over.

20
00:01:30,990 --> 00:01:33,100
All right.

21
00:01:39,350 --> 00:01:41,360
- What happened?
- You passed out.

22
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,460
It's okay. Just stay hydrated.

23
00:01:45,420 --> 00:01:48,970
You know we'll be back. We'll be back!

24
00:02:01,950 --> 00:02:03,580
Hey, stop screwing around.

25
00:02:03,580 --> 00:02:07,040
I'm not... screwing around. I just can't...

26
00:02:12,550 --> 00:02:14,730
I can't stand up.

27
00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:37,440
www.gwedynn.com

28
00:03:02,530 --> 00:03:04,410
I need to push back our getaway.

29
00:03:04,410 --> 00:03:07,590
No, you don't. Found you a board. Perfect size to learn on.

30
00:03:08,070 --> 00:03:08,960
I'm just postponing.

31
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,850
Olandt from Philly General wants me to get a patient in to see House.

32
00:03:11,850 --> 00:03:13,200
So?

33
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:14,360
I owe him a favor.

34
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,930
He's taken about a dozen of my referrals over the last year.

35
00:03:16,930 --> 00:03:22,820
I meant so that’s five seconds to hand House the file, 30 for him to question your real motives,

36
00:03:22,820 --> 00:03:26,820
a minute for witty comments comparing the length of your legs to Thirteen's...

37
00:03:26,820 --> 00:03:28,430
Plenty of time left over for the shore.

38
00:03:28,430 --> 00:03:31,440
I need to make sure he doesn't toss the file in the trash as soon as I'm out of sight.

39
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,670
Baby, can't repay the favor on another case?

40
00:03:34,670 --> 00:03:37,800
After last week, I could really use a break from this place.

41
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,590
We both could.

42
00:03:39,590 --> 00:03:44,300
Once I'm sure he's really on the case, then we're out of here.

43
00:03:44,300 --> 00:03:48,190
And these legs and every other part of me will be all yours.

44
00:03:51,780 --> 00:03:53,970
He's seen three different specialists.

45
00:03:53,970 --> 00:03:55,870
Interesting.

46
00:03:55,870 --> 00:04:00,660
Almost as interesting as you trying to step into Kutner's shoes just days after he stepped out of them.

47
00:04:00,660 --> 00:04:02,800
I am not shoe shopping.

48
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,400
I'm just trying to repay a favor to his referring doctor.

49
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:06,330
What's the mystery?

50
00:04:06,330 --> 00:04:09,880
The nut case spends all his free time wreaking havoc at toxic waste dumps.

51
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:10,990
Tox screen's negative.

52
00:04:10,990 --> 00:04:14,370
No neurological, muscular, or cardiovascular abnormalities.

53
00:04:14,370 --> 00:04:16,940
The guy cares about the environment? That makes him a nut case?

54
00:04:16,940 --> 00:04:18,530
He's a single guy in his 20s.

55
00:04:18,530 --> 00:04:22,060
He cares about getting his hybrid waxed girls who care about the environment.

56
00:04:22,060 --> 00:04:24,120
See? Not a nut case.

57
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,970
He's probably just faking so he can sue the cops and get a six-figure settlement.

58
00:04:26,970 --> 00:04:31,650
If he was trying to fake an illness, why would he consent to be seen by the best diagnostician in the country?

59
00:04:31,650 --> 00:04:34,690
Now who's trying to get her hybrid waxed?

60
00:04:34,690 --> 00:04:37,080
We need to do a vestibular caloric test.

61
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,080
See if the balance problem starts above or below the neck.

62
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,590
And when I say "we," I mean "you."

63
00:04:42,590 --> 00:04:45,480
You're the one with the favor to repay, not them.

64
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,610
I'm going to be injecting ice water in your ear canal.

65
00:04:54,610 --> 00:04:59,690
If the resulting eye movements are at all erratic, then the balance problem is in your inner ear.

66
00:04:59,690 --> 00:05:01,870
Those in every room?

67
00:05:01,870 --> 00:05:03,270
I think so.

68
00:05:03,270 --> 00:05:04,990
Can you get rid of them?

69
00:05:04,990 --> 00:05:07,390
Preferably from every room?

70
00:05:07,390 --> 00:05:10,550
They use over 30 pesticides to grow commercial flowers.

71
00:05:10,550 --> 00:05:11,880
You'd think the medical industry would be a lot more...

72
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,290
Concerned with medicine? Let's fix your body.

73
00:05:14,290 --> 00:05:16,060
Then you can go back to fixing the earth.

74
00:05:16,060 --> 00:05:17,270
This is gonna get a little uncomfortable.

75
00:05:17,270 --> 00:05:19,480
I just spent 14 hours chained to a tire.

76
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:20,860
Most doctors would recommend--

77
00:05:20,860 --> 00:05:22,830
Our planet's headed for destruction.

78
00:05:22,830 --> 00:05:26,110
Coastlines under water, a million species extinct.

79
00:05:27,510 --> 00:05:29,580
Feels like I'm tumbling head over heels.

80
00:05:29,580 --> 00:05:32,570
That's normal--sometimes this test causes vertigo.

81
00:05:35,300 --> 00:05:37,350
And nausea.

82
00:05:39,150 --> 00:05:41,740
Cameron just brought me a case.

83
00:05:41,740 --> 00:05:43,810
Cameron is happy in the ER.

84
00:05:43,810 --> 00:05:47,210
There's no way she wants her nose back on your grindstone.

85
00:05:47,540 --> 00:05:50,810
Egg white omelet, no bacon, whole wheat toast.

86
00:05:50,810 --> 00:05:55,030
I say it's not my grindstone she's after and not her nose she wants on it.

87
00:05:55,030 --> 00:05:57,990
She and Chase are practically living together.

88
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:01,690
What did you just order?

89
00:06:01,690 --> 00:06:03,770
An omelet.

90
00:06:04,060 --> 00:06:07,170
Since when do you pass on the swine?

91
00:06:07,170 --> 00:06:10,500
And wheat toast? Might as well eat a sheet of sand paper.

92
00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:14,310
Well, yes, but I don't like eating the same thing two days in a row.

93
00:06:14,310 --> 00:06:16,890
Your bro's nurse not lovin' the love handles?

94
00:06:16,890 --> 00:06:18,810
I'm just not in the mood for bacon.

95
00:06:18,810 --> 00:06:22,640
And you're obviously trying to avoid talking about Kutner, which is odd,

96
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,890
because you spent a whole week obsessing about why--

97
00:06:24,890 --> 00:06:27,150
He's no longer on my team.

98
00:06:27,150 --> 00:06:30,470
I'm sorry he's no longer on my team. Nothing else to talk about.

99
00:06:32,430 --> 00:06:35,550
You're wearing the watch he gave you for Secret Santa.

100
00:06:35,550 --> 00:06:40,690
Five functions, including a stop watch to time how long it takes you to ask me if I'm okay.

101
00:06:41,770 --> 00:06:43,900
You gonna order?

102
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,980
Not hungry.

103
00:06:50,590 --> 00:06:54,160
It's just weird. She's brought cases before, but he's never made her run the tests.

104
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,280
Maybe he's looking for someone to mother him after what happened.

105
00:06:57,280 --> 00:07:02,090
Only kind of mothering House wants involves a bullwhip, leather diapers, and a credit card.

106
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,030
Mommy's home.

107
00:07:07,990 --> 00:07:11,660
Test made the patient lose his lunch, but his calorics are normal, his inner ear is fine,

108
00:07:11,660 --> 00:07:13,360
and he still can't balance himself.

109
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,180
How many normal test results do we need to know the patient's a granola-filled phony?

110
00:07:17,180 --> 00:07:18,860
He's not lying about his symptoms.

111
00:07:18,860 --> 00:07:22,130
- And you know this because...
- She changed her shoes.

112
00:07:22,130 --> 00:07:25,280
If he was faking, he'd have vomited on the other side of the bed.

113
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,080
Sparring with the police and chaining yourself up for days can cause stress.

114
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,860
Stress screws with the heart and arteries.

115
00:07:30,860 --> 00:07:33,390
Carotid atherosclerosis could cause a loss of balance.

116
00:07:33,390 --> 00:07:35,600
Wouldn't show upon CT or MRI.

117
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,000
Could also be our only warning before a massive stroke.

118
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,180
Do a holter and a carotid Doppler.

119
00:07:41,180 --> 00:07:44,690
See if his heart skips for more than the spotted owl.

120
00:07:44,690 --> 00:07:48,750
Although I didn't say "we." If I had...

121
00:08:01,830 --> 00:08:04,200
Sorry if this is screwing up the test.

122
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,420
I've been hiccupping a lot lately, but...

123
00:08:06,420 --> 00:08:07,780
Not as bad as this.

124
00:08:07,780 --> 00:08:09,770
How much is "a lot" and how long is "lately"?

125
00:08:09,770 --> 00:08:12,170
It's been on and off for about a week.

126
00:08:12,170 --> 00:08:14,220
Maybe a few hours a day.

127
00:08:14,220 --> 00:08:16,760
Did you tell the doctors in Philly about it?

128
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,480
They didn't seem to think it was any big deal.

129
00:08:24,610 --> 00:08:26,640
Hey, so we're still leaving tomorrow, aren't we?

130
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,970
I'm not sure.

131
00:08:28,970 --> 00:08:32,000
The referring doctors didn't realize that his hiccups were--

132
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,780
Hiccups?

133
00:08:33,780 --> 00:08:38,740
With this duration and intensity, mostly likely pathological, and it could mean it's serious.

134
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,120
- Are you avoiding me?
- No.

135
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:46,800
So I shouldn't beat all concerned that you're treating another doctor's patient for hiccups

136
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,600
instead of going on a vacation I spent a week planning.

137
00:08:52,550 --> 00:08:56,030
There is a reason I need to stay with this case a while longer,

138
00:08:56,030 --> 00:09:00,070
but I can't tell you what it is.

139
00:09:00,450 --> 00:09:05,130
So... you admit you lied to me. And now you're asking me to trust you?

140
00:09:06,510 --> 00:09:07,510
Yes.

141
00:09:11,660 --> 00:09:12,910
Okay.

142
00:09:23,910 --> 00:09:28,060
No sign of heart or arterial problems, but he's been hiccupping on and off for over a week.

143
00:09:28,060 --> 00:09:29,810
Nice! I'm hooked.

144
00:09:29,810 --> 00:09:32,410
You can get back to your shift at the ER.

145
00:09:32,410 --> 00:09:35,020
Except, as far as the ER is concerned, you're on vacation, right?

146
00:09:35,020 --> 00:09:37,860
I postponed a trip because I'm concerned about the patient.

147
00:09:37,860 --> 00:09:41,020
Explains why you ditched Chase and came to the differentials, not why you ran the tests.

148
00:09:41,020 --> 00:09:42,440
You told me to.

149
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,830
Well, I’m not your boss, as you usually take great pleasure in pointing out.

150
00:09:45,830 --> 00:09:49,620
Hey, you don't still have the hots for me, do you?

151
00:09:50,230 --> 00:09:53,450
I care about the patient, and I care about the people who work on your team.

152
00:09:53,450 --> 00:09:55,490
They've been through a lot lately. I just thought I--

153
00:09:55,490 --> 00:09:57,120
Was Florence Nightingale.

154
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,350
Yeah, you're gonna nurse us back to spiritual and mental oneness.

155
00:09:59,350 --> 00:10:02,180
That would make sense if we were having this conversation a week ago.

156
00:10:02,180 --> 00:10:06,530
Think what you want-- that I'm here to get a job, that I'm here to wrap you in swaddling clothes.

157
00:10:07,300 --> 00:10:10,960
The problem is, I think neither. Because neither makes sense.

158
00:10:11,540 --> 00:10:15,470
The only thing that does... doesn't.

159
00:10:21,650 --> 00:10:25,720
Pathological hiccups plus inability to balance--go.

160
00:10:27,190 --> 00:10:29,920
What she said.

161
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,570
Brain would connect the two.

162
00:10:31,570 --> 00:10:34,890
It could, if Cameron hadn't already CT'd his head.

163
00:10:34,890 --> 00:10:36,980
Empty as her boyfriend's calendar.

164
00:10:36,980 --> 00:10:38,900
What does this have to do with Chase?

165
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:41,000
- Nothing.
- Not sure yet.

166
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,110
Patient is on a jihad against commercial flowers.

167
00:10:43,110 --> 00:10:46,500
He's picketed several nurseries. Organophosphate poisoning can cause both hiccups and--

168
00:10:46,500 --> 00:10:48,520
No GI problems, no hyper-salivation.

169
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,910
It's possible it's not connected to a protest.

170
00:10:50,910 --> 00:10:53,660
MS wouldn't show on the CT, and his name's Swenson.

171
00:10:53,660 --> 00:10:57,020
Scandinavians have an increased susceptibility to MS.

172
00:10:57,020 --> 00:10:59,870
Better theory than he's faking it.

173
00:10:59,870 --> 00:11:04,290
The clogs have it. Do a lumbar puncture to confirm MS.

174
00:11:06,460 --> 00:11:09,590
I guess we'll just continue to twiddle our thumbs.

175
00:11:09,590 --> 00:11:11,730
God, I hope that's a euphemism.

176
00:11:11,730 --> 00:11:14,810
How am I supposed to do a lumbar puncture on a patient with intractable hiccups?

177
00:11:14,810 --> 00:11:18,940
I'm trying to figure out what that could be a euphemism for.

178
00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:22,340
You'll find a way.

179
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,680
You're not worried House is gonna be pissed you're helping me do the test?

180
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:33,520
He said find a way, and you did.

181
00:11:34,350 --> 00:11:36,170
How do you think House is doing?

182
00:11:36,170 --> 00:11:38,850
- That why you're here?
- Yeah.

183
00:11:40,170 --> 00:11:41,830
No, it isn't.

184
00:11:41,830 --> 00:11:45,050
Even if House was messed up by Kutner's suicide, it wouldn't matter.

185
00:11:45,050 --> 00:11:48,200
He already thinks life is nasty, brutish, and long.

186
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,760
And misery helps his diagnostic skills.

187
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,270
All of which you know, so...

188
00:11:53,270 --> 00:11:56,080
- Why are you here?
- Which answer would you believe?

189
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,500
If you want Kutner's place, it's fine by me.

190
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:01,440
I could use someone else with the stones to stand up to House.

191
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:05,500
But you've gotta know it's gonna blow up your relationship with Chase.

192
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,360
All I did was postpone a three-day trip.

193
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,180
With Chase, to be with House.

194
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,660
- What are you doing?
- Ordering IV chlorpromazine.

195
00:12:16,660 --> 00:12:20,110
This could still be neurological. You could cloud his mental status.

196
00:12:20,110 --> 00:12:23,550
You wanna get the needle in his spine or you wanna talk?

197
00:12:30,730 --> 00:12:33,430
You and House been talking about filling Kutner's slot?

198
00:12:33,950 --> 00:12:37,820
Yeah, we went straight from the funeral to human resources.

199
00:12:39,410 --> 00:12:41,020
You interested in getting back on the team?

200
00:12:41,020 --> 00:12:43,570
I'm interested in knowing if Cameron's interested.

201
00:12:43,570 --> 00:12:46,250
She's been running all the tests for House's case.

202
00:12:46,250 --> 00:12:48,500
Well, she hasn't said anything to me.

203
00:12:48,500 --> 00:12:53,230
But I guess, uh, the referring doctor might have asked her to keep an eye on him.

204
00:12:56,350 --> 00:12:59,450
Do you think Cameron's in love with House?

205
00:12:59,450 --> 00:13:02,750
That is a ridiculous question. She's in love with you.

206
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,020
Are you in love with House?

207
00:13:07,020 --> 00:13:11,300
That... is an even more ridiculous question.

208
00:13:11,860 --> 00:13:15,030
Two questions, zero answers.

209
00:13:15,610 --> 00:13:18,400
Think I can extrapolate from there.

210
00:13:31,550 --> 00:13:33,670
Dr. House?

211
00:13:33,670 --> 00:13:36,980
Sorry, I’m just the zone delivery guy.

212
00:13:36,980 --> 00:13:40,290
I'm, uh, Doug Swenson's wife.

213
00:13:42,180 --> 00:13:45,070
His history said the environmental kamikaze was single.

214
00:13:45,070 --> 00:13:47,690
He, um, he probably didn't want me to worry.

215
00:13:47,690 --> 00:13:50,400
He told me he was in jail with some of the other protesters.

216
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,800
Yeah, no worries there.

217
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,500
He's... in jail a lot.

218
00:13:55,500 --> 00:13:57,800
Not so often in the hospital.

219
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,590
I searched his email, and I found the referral to you yesterday.

220
00:14:00,590 --> 00:14:03,920
You must really love your husband. Antravel by rickshaw.

221
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,060
It only took you 18 hours to get here.

222
00:14:09,180 --> 00:14:11,390
Who eats kale?

223
00:14:11,390 --> 00:14:13,890
It's so bland, it doesn't even taste like kale.

224
00:14:13,890 --> 00:14:17,750
Uh, I had to find somebody to take care of our four-year-old son.

225
00:14:18,100 --> 00:14:20,470
- Doug's all right, isn't he?
- I have no idea.

226
00:14:20,470 --> 00:14:23,760
I know he's an idiot. And now I've learned that he's a liar.

227
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:28,790
So we're making a-- who told you that I was in here?

228
00:14:28,790 --> 00:14:32,130
The doctor in the office next to yours said that you might be here.

229
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,810
I got it figured out.

230
00:14:40,810 --> 00:14:42,490
That mean we don't need to do the LP?

231
00:14:42,490 --> 00:14:45,430
I was talking to her. You're not even supposed to be here.

232
00:14:45,430 --> 00:14:48,200
- You want us to stop or not?
- What?

233
00:14:48,470 --> 00:14:49,940
Oh, I don't care what you do with him.

234
00:14:49,940 --> 00:14:52,040
You're not doing a favor for a doctor in Philly.

235
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,070
You're doing a favor for an oncologist in North Jersey.

236
00:14:55,070 --> 00:14:56,740
I'm spying on you for Wilson?

237
00:14:56,740 --> 00:14:59,130
Spying, preemptive grief counseling.

238
00:14:59,130 --> 00:15:05,200
Wilson sees you ten times more than I do, he's a better liar, and he wouldn't have to cancel a vacation to do it.

239
00:15:05,700 --> 00:15:07,450
Good points.

240
00:15:07,450 --> 00:15:09,170
Also doesn't explain the diet.

241
00:15:09,170 --> 00:15:11,460
What does any of this have to do with my husband?

242
00:15:11,460 --> 00:15:13,760
Nothing.

243
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,190
Meet Mrs. Environmental nut bag.

244
00:15:16,190 --> 00:15:18,000
Or did you keep your maiden name?

245
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,170
- He's married?
- Yep, got a kid too.

246
00:15:20,170 --> 00:15:22,700
Double threat. Eco-freak and dead beat dad.

247
00:15:22,700 --> 00:15:24,950
- House.
- Sorry... parentally challenged.

248
00:15:24,950 --> 00:15:27,490
No, his neck.

249
00:15:29,100 --> 00:15:31,220
It's torticollis. Reaction to the chlorpromazine.

250
00:15:31,220 --> 00:15:34,450
It's not just a spasm. It's swollen.

251
00:15:35,700 --> 00:15:37,760
Crunchy.

252
00:15:41,220 --> 00:15:43,030
It's definitely not MS.

253
00:15:43,030 --> 00:15:45,380
Crunching sounds were caused by an air leak between his lungs.

254
00:15:45,380 --> 00:15:47,810
Lead in his mediastinum could have been caused by prolonged hiccups.

255
00:15:47,810 --> 00:15:49,260
More likely, it was the neck spasm.

256
00:15:49,260 --> 00:15:50,780
Most likely, it was there all along.

257
00:15:50,780 --> 00:15:52,860
We just didn't notice it till the other symptoms made it worse.

258
00:15:52,860 --> 00:15:58,410
So... what causes loss of balance, pathological hiccups, and a hole in his Gloria Steinem?

259
00:15:58,410 --> 00:16:02,440
He was protesting a lumber mill last fall. Sarcoid's been linked to pine forests.

260
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,420
No, his ACE levels were normal.

261
00:16:04,420 --> 00:16:06,340
Progressive systemic sclerosis?

262
00:16:06,340 --> 00:16:08,230
Guy practically lives at industrial waste sites.

263
00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:12,170
If a solvent got absorbed through his lungs, caused an autoimmune firestorm...

264
00:16:12,430 --> 00:16:15,540
Start him on IV methyl-prednisolone for systemic sclerosis.

265
00:16:15,540 --> 00:16:17,220
Do a full work-up to confirm.

266
00:16:17,220 --> 00:16:19,930
- By myself?
- Without yourself.

267
00:16:20,730 --> 00:16:25,740
Grab a bat. Grab some pine. Time to bring in the first string.

268
00:16:31,460 --> 00:16:32,460
Why?

269
00:16:33,380 --> 00:16:36,420
You obviously want to be here. I can't figure out why.

270
00:16:36,420 --> 00:16:39,510
I wanna see where you go when you can't be here.

271
00:17:01,590 --> 00:17:03,540
You know what vacation means, right?

272
00:17:03,540 --> 00:17:06,020
You're here because of House, Chase, or overtime issues.

273
00:17:06,020 --> 00:17:08,100
He's very concerned.

274
00:17:08,100 --> 00:17:10,070
Chase, not House.

275
00:17:10,070 --> 00:17:14,060
Well, if it's all right with you, I’d rather communicate with Chase by communicating with Chase.

276
00:17:17,820 --> 00:17:20,790
Are you in love with House?

277
00:17:21,210 --> 00:17:24,240
You... are not concerned about me.

278
00:17:25,190 --> 00:17:27,780
You're marking your territory.

279
00:17:27,780 --> 00:17:30,080
You shouldn't be involved with House.

280
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,240
Neither should I. Neither should anyone.

281
00:17:33,340 --> 00:17:37,620
You and Chase are good together. Just don't screw it up.

282
00:17:44,070 --> 00:17:45,740
When are you gonna stop this?

283
00:17:45,740 --> 00:17:47,480
How can you ask me to stop?

284
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,770
You're in a hospital. You have a son.

285
00:17:51,530 --> 00:17:54,380
The steroids ought to get him breathing normally again.

286
00:17:54,380 --> 00:17:56,690
But autoimmune diseases are serious.

287
00:17:56,690 --> 00:18:00,390
It might not be a bad idea to take some time at home, rest up.

288
00:18:00,390 --> 00:18:03,040
I can't just quit.

289
00:18:04,060 --> 00:18:06,080
Do you hate us that much?

290
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,550
I love you. And I love our son.

291
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,940
But why should he matter more than everyone else's?

292
00:18:13,940 --> 00:18:16,450
- He does.
- Why?

293
00:18:17,330 --> 00:18:20,250
Because he's biologically connected to me?

294
00:18:20,250 --> 00:18:23,360
There's no rational reason.

295
00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:26,010
He's our son!

296
00:18:26,010 --> 00:18:29,130
And he's gonna need to drink clean water.

297
00:18:29,130 --> 00:18:31,920
And breathe clean air.

298
00:18:32,260 --> 00:18:35,080
I'm doing this for him too.

299
00:18:43,170 --> 00:18:45,760
Come on in, House.

300
00:18:47,050 --> 00:18:49,660
Because who else is it going to be at 10:30 at night?

301
00:18:49,660 --> 00:18:51,770
And no, thanks. I already ate.

302
00:18:51,770 --> 00:18:54,430
Didn't ask you to dinner.

303
00:18:54,430 --> 00:18:56,020
But you were going to.

304
00:18:56,020 --> 00:18:58,460
And when I explained that I'd eaten hours ago,

305
00:18:58,460 --> 00:19:03,090
you were going to move onto your real entree, rifling through my kitchen.

306
00:19:07,980 --> 00:19:10,400
Inviting me to search your kitchen.

307
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,010
Means you know that I'd find nothing, or you know that I'd find something,

308
00:19:14,010 --> 00:19:17,500
so you're hoping that I'm going to assume the former and I won't bother to look.

309
00:19:19,070 --> 00:19:22,600
Or it means it's late, I’m tired,

310
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:27,070
I know you're here to advance some paranoid theory based on a single egg white omelet,

311
00:19:27,070 --> 00:19:29,370
and I'd like to get it over with so we can both go to sleep.

312
00:19:29,370 --> 00:19:34,880
Your single-omelet theory conveniently overlooks the grassy knoll you had for lunch today:

313
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,640
vegetable and grain gag-a-thon.

314
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:43,580
The Warren Commission found no evidence of a second lunch, possibly because it was stolen from the doctor's lounge.

315
00:19:43,580 --> 00:19:45,590
You're not getting any fatter.

316
00:19:45,590 --> 00:19:47,720
Your medical records were clean.

317
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:52,870
- You checked my--
- You're alone tonight, so it's Kutner.

318
00:19:54,360 --> 00:19:56,650
How could Kutner have any conceivable--

319
00:19:56,650 --> 00:19:59,100
Your patients live, your patients die.

320
00:19:59,100 --> 00:20:02,220
You float above it all like a medical colossus.

321
00:20:02,220 --> 00:20:04,910
- But a fellow doctor dies...
- That's brilliant.

322
00:20:04,910 --> 00:20:09,990
Kutner was a wake-up call that if I didn't eat healthier, I might kill myself.

323
00:20:09,990 --> 00:20:12,560
Mortality is mortality.

324
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:17,830
And... ice cream... is ice cream.

325
00:20:17,830 --> 00:20:20,490
Full fat content.

326
00:20:20,490 --> 00:20:23,660
Quadruple fat content.

327
00:20:25,770 --> 00:20:28,860
Stuff you haven't eaten just proves you haven't eaten it.

328
00:20:28,860 --> 00:20:32,040
You were hoping for evidence of stuff I have eaten?

329
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,370
First door on the right.

330
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,100
Excruciating pain in his left leg! Acute onset about ten minutes ago.

331
00:20:43,100 --> 00:20:45,660
What are you doing to him?

332
00:20:45,660 --> 00:20:49,390
I assume they were checking for vascular pulsations.

333
00:20:49,390 --> 00:20:51,440
Either it's negative, or he's a big wuss.

334
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,310
It's not a tumor or an aneurism!

335
00:20:55,090 --> 00:20:57,790
- Metabolic bone disease?
- Bone density's normal!

336
00:20:57,790 --> 00:21:00,070
But the bone covering might not be!

337
00:21:00,070 --> 00:21:03,490
If it's osteomyelitis, an infection eating away at his periosteum--

338
00:21:03,490 --> 00:21:04,720
That explains the pain.

339
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,840
Odds are it's a subclinical infection that we made it worse with the steroids we gave him.

340
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,790
Start him on IV antibiotics. X-ray his legs to confirm osteomyelitis.

341
00:21:12,790 --> 00:21:15,650
Cameron's already done a full set of lower-body x-rays.

342
00:21:15,650 --> 00:21:18,580
The infection obviously flared. Do 'em again.

343
00:21:21,330 --> 00:21:26,660
Even if I had changed my diet, what possible reason could I have for hiding it from you?

344
00:21:34,780 --> 00:21:37,220
Ankle, tibia, fibula--all look normal.

345
00:21:37,220 --> 00:21:40,350
No inflammation, no signs of osteo.

346
00:21:42,630 --> 00:21:45,300
Hang in there. We're almost done.

347
00:21:47,550 --> 00:21:50,060
You and your wife... you talk about stuff?

348
00:21:50,060 --> 00:21:52,180
- Sex.
- No.

349
00:21:52,180 --> 00:21:54,160
- Anything else?
- Money.

350
00:21:55,510 --> 00:21:58,560
I'm gonna go way out on a limb here.

351
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,110
Foreman not a Chatty Cathy?

352
00:22:02,110 --> 00:22:04,650
Normally, it doesn't matter.

353
00:22:04,650 --> 00:22:07,090
But last week it did.

354
00:22:09,270 --> 00:22:13,720
You wanna date men, good chance talking won't be...

355
00:22:16,900 --> 00:22:18,160
His femur's fractured.

356
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,460
That's impossible. It's the hardest bone in the body.

357
00:22:20,460 --> 00:22:24,060
And he broke it lying in bed.

358
00:22:31,470 --> 00:22:34,860
How can you have a broken femur without so much as a bruise?

359
00:22:34,860 --> 00:22:37,000
Whatever broke it had to do it from within.

360
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,990
Osteogenesis imperfecta?

361
00:22:38,990 --> 00:22:43,030
Brittle bones wouldn't cause hiccups, plus, we'd have seen abnormal coloring in the sclerae.

362
00:22:43,030 --> 00:22:44,430
Which leaves cancer.

363
00:22:44,430 --> 00:22:46,560
Since when does bone cancer cause hiccups?

364
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,430
Which means it's not bone cancer.

365
00:22:48,430 --> 00:22:50,570
Or it's not cancer.

366
00:22:50,570 --> 00:22:52,040
House is right.

367
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,910
It'd be hard to find a guy outside Chernobyl who'd been exposed to more carcinogens.

368
00:22:55,910 --> 00:22:59,140
Pesticide plants, nuclear waste sites.

369
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,830
Tell Chase to repair the break. You two prep him for chemo.

370
00:23:03,830 --> 00:23:06,740
You wanna blast him with chemo for a cancer we don't even know he has?

371
00:23:06,740 --> 00:23:11,270
Nope, I wanna blast him with chemo for a cancer that explains the symptoms.

372
00:23:17,370 --> 00:23:19,480
Intramedullary nail.

373
00:23:20,190 --> 00:23:21,800
Hold on.

374
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,350
That your House imitation? Some late-breaking epiphany?

375
00:23:24,350 --> 00:23:27,600
I just need you to get a bone biopsy before you insert the pin.

376
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:28,700
For a broken leg?

377
00:23:28,700 --> 00:23:30,550
House is prepping him for chemo.

378
00:23:30,550 --> 00:23:34,630
Thought it might be worth checking for cancer before pumping him full of poison.

379
00:23:34,630 --> 00:23:36,220
Does Cameron agree with House?

380
00:23:36,220 --> 00:23:38,820
Cameron isn't on the case anymore.

381
00:23:46,790 --> 00:23:49,750
Still enjoying your day off, I see.

382
00:23:49,750 --> 00:23:51,310
Why are you prepping him for chemo?

383
00:23:51,310 --> 00:23:54,960
The more interesting question is why do you care?

384
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,830
- You're not even sure that it's-- -
- What I mean is, why do you care from here?

385
00:23:58,830 --> 00:24:01,750
You can monitor the patient from home. What's the difference between here and home?

386
00:24:01,750 --> 00:24:05,030
You're not at my home? This has nothing to do with--

387
00:24:05,030 --> 00:24:07,930
Any other differences?

388
00:24:07,930 --> 00:24:13,790
Less medical equipment, more training bras, and more Vegemite sandwiches.

389
00:24:13,790 --> 00:24:16,450
Actually, technically, right now, Chase is here.

390
00:24:16,450 --> 00:24:18,460
But that's because I called him, and you didn't know that.

391
00:24:18,460 --> 00:24:21,460
And it's irrelevant to my point, which is...

392
00:24:21,460 --> 00:24:24,710
You and Chase are over.

393
00:24:25,010 --> 00:24:26,670
You are wrong.

394
00:24:26,670 --> 00:24:30,740
You decided that his single drawer of clothes is one drawer too many.

395
00:24:30,740 --> 00:24:33,040
But you don't have the guts to tell him, so...

396
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,090
You're emotionally walking away...

397
00:24:35,090 --> 00:24:37,540
Instead of actually walking away.

398
00:24:37,540 --> 00:24:41,260
Which is stupid, because only one of those is good for your heart.

399
00:24:48,020 --> 00:24:50,880
He's gonna ask me to marry him.

400
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:57,110
I... was looking for some thick socks. Found the ring.

401
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,110
And you want to say no?

402
00:25:01,110 --> 00:25:04,070
So I circle right back to his single drawer of clothes--

403
00:25:04,070 --> 00:25:07,350
I don't want to say anything. I don't want him to ask.

404
00:25:08,970 --> 00:25:09,930
Not now.

405
00:25:11,750 --> 00:25:17,200
Couldn't hurt... we're all a little freaked out.

406
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,950
We go home, we just wanna hug someone.

407
00:25:19,950 --> 00:25:22,920
We just wanna know everything's gonna be okay.

408
00:25:26,650 --> 00:25:30,190
I don't want him to propose just 'cause he's scared.

409
00:25:41,930 --> 00:25:45,240
She's got a headache, fever. She's completely exhausted.

410
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,490
Tell him about your chest, honey.

411
00:25:47,490 --> 00:25:51,120
Her breasts are really tender.

412
00:25:51,870 --> 00:25:55,310
- You guys have a hot tub?
- No.

413
00:25:55,310 --> 00:25:58,140
- She must go to the gym a lot.
- Not in years.

414
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:04,550
Then maybe, when you travel on business, you zip on down to that complimentary hotel spa--

415
00:26:04,550 --> 00:26:08,240
- No.
- Sorry, did you just say yes?

416
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,760
What the hell's wrong with her?

417
00:26:12,090 --> 00:26:15,140
- Got a minute?
- He doesn't. What's wrong with her?

418
00:26:15,140 --> 00:26:20,970
Sorry. I’m sure she's got a medical crisis, and I need more time to figure out some leading questions for your wife.

419
00:26:23,090 --> 00:26:24,580
What's going on with Cameron?

420
00:26:24,580 --> 00:26:28,140
She doesn't want back on my team and she doesn't want to jump me.

421
00:26:29,300 --> 00:26:32,630
- Okay.
- What?

422
00:26:33,510 --> 00:26:38,070
You ask a question, I rule out two possibilities, and you're satisfied?

423
00:26:38,980 --> 00:26:40,830
That means you don't want an answer.

424
00:26:40,830 --> 00:26:43,660
You just wanted to know there wasn't a particular answer.

425
00:26:43,660 --> 00:26:48,310
Either you were worried that she wanted back on my team, or you were worried that she wanted back on me.

426
00:26:48,310 --> 00:26:50,940
This isn't a medical crisis, is it?

427
00:26:51,820 --> 00:26:55,960
Could be. A lot of STDs hang in the balance.

428
00:27:01,710 --> 00:27:05,160
I give up. Vinegar compresses four times a day.

429
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,750
Any chance I could just leave it at that?

430
00:27:09,250 --> 00:27:12,500
No. Pseudomomas folliculitis.

431
00:27:12,500 --> 00:27:15,820
It's a skin infection from crowded and contaminated hot tubs,

432
00:27:15,820 --> 00:27:20,160
which you obviously use, but not with your husband.

433
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,810
Tried to help a sister out.

434
00:27:29,330 --> 00:27:31,520
The nuclei were all normal sized.

435
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,720
Bone cells were well differentiated.

436
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,870
No dysplasia means no cancer.

437
00:27:35,870 --> 00:27:38,310
- That's good, isn't it?
- We hope so.

438
00:27:38,310 --> 00:27:41,740
Although it also means we still have no idea what caused the break.

439
00:27:41,740 --> 00:27:44,630
- How does it feel?
- It hurts.

440
00:27:48,390 --> 00:27:49,880
Is it supposed to look like that?

441
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,320
No, but it's probably just residual bleeding from the surgery.

442
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,870
We should be able to...

443
00:27:59,450 --> 00:28:01,760
I need two units of FFP, right away!

444
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,850
- Oh, my god! What's happening?
- He's bleeding out.

445
00:28:11,450 --> 00:28:12,830
Means it's gotta be cancer.

446
00:28:12,830 --> 00:28:15,380
It's gotta be, except it's not. The biopsy was negative.

447
00:28:15,380 --> 00:28:17,450
Biopsies can be wrong. Symptoms can't.

448
00:28:17,450 --> 00:28:21,450
All signs point to cancer, but you can't blast a cancer you can't find.

449
00:28:21,450 --> 00:28:25,440
Sure you can. Prep him for total body irradiation.

450
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,700
You do realize that's insane.

451
00:28:27,700 --> 00:28:30,910
Not unless you think the cancer's cleverly hiding outside his body.

452
00:28:30,910 --> 00:28:32,510
Steroids already weakened his immune system.

453
00:28:32,510 --> 00:28:35,230
That much radiation'll kill him before it kills the cancer.

454
00:28:35,230 --> 00:28:37,330
And if he doesn't have cancer, we could cause one,

455
00:28:37,330 --> 00:28:39,160
or destroy his immune system altogether.

456
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:40,710
The guy could die from an infected toe nail.

457
00:28:40,710 --> 00:28:43,220
I'd rather do nothing, just let him die on his own?

458
00:28:43,220 --> 00:28:45,850
I'd rather make his cancer worse.

459
00:28:48,460 --> 00:28:52,020
Give him insulin-like growth factor, make any tumor or malignancy grow.

460
00:28:52,020 --> 00:28:53,800
Grows big enough, we can find it.

461
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,470
That's like pouring gasoline on a fire.

462
00:28:55,470 --> 00:28:58,860
At least total body irradiation's an actual treatment.

463
00:29:01,410 --> 00:29:04,890
His idea is better. Pour away.

464
00:29:19,910 --> 00:29:22,520
I lost my mojo.

465
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,620
Have you retraced your steps?

466
00:29:24,620 --> 00:29:26,250
Does your cleaning lady check your pockets before--

467
00:29:26,250 --> 00:29:30,950
I was clueless about Kutner. I was wrong about Cameron.

468
00:29:31,460 --> 00:29:35,520
Taub just came up with an idea that I should have seen long before he did.

469
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,150
No one saw anything coming with Kutner.

470
00:29:38,150 --> 00:29:39,870
You hardly ever see Cameron anymore.

471
00:29:39,870 --> 00:29:43,680
And you hired Taub to come up with ideas that you wouldn't have come up with.

472
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,190
And I have no idea why you're eating carrots.

473
00:29:46,190 --> 00:29:48,290
Good.

474
00:29:48,290 --> 00:29:51,530
I'm losing my mind. All you got to say is "good"?

475
00:29:51,530 --> 00:29:59,110
House, a guy you worked with for two years, who you mentored and, yes, possibly even cared about, just blew his brains out.

476
00:29:59,110 --> 00:30:02,850
You can't find the reason, can't find the meaning in it, because sometimes there isn't any.

477
00:30:02,850 --> 00:30:06,630
Sometimes... this is all there is.

478
00:30:07,070 --> 00:30:08,800
You should be losing it.

479
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,720
You'd be crazy not to be off your game.

480
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,100
But your mojo is right where you left it.

481
00:30:14,100 --> 00:30:18,590
Just... keep playing with it. I gotta go.

482
00:30:19,430 --> 00:30:22,120
Help yourself.

483
00:30:25,580 --> 00:30:27,510
I know this is a tough process.

484
00:30:27,510 --> 00:30:30,020
At the first sign of any tumors or masses, we can...

485
00:30:30,020 --> 00:30:31,970
Start saying prayers?

486
00:30:31,970 --> 00:30:33,490
It's gonna be okay. Once we can--

487
00:30:33,490 --> 00:30:36,200
No, it's not gonna be okay. You're growing his cancer.

488
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,950
This isn't the doctors' fault.

489
00:30:38,950 --> 00:30:42,590
I've exposed myself to a lot of bad stuff.

490
00:30:42,590 --> 00:30:45,390
I knew the risks.

491
00:30:46,550 --> 00:30:49,990
I want my life to mean something.

492
00:30:49,990 --> 00:30:53,380
If that means I'm destined to...

493
00:30:55,670 --> 00:30:58,490
He's in v-tach and no pulse! Grab the paddles!

494
00:30:58,490 --> 00:31:00,100
Oh, god!

495
00:31:02,450 --> 00:31:04,920
Charging. Clear!

496
00:31:05,510 --> 00:31:08,190
Charging. Clear.

497
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,710
I've been looking for you.

498
00:31:12,710 --> 00:31:15,860
And... I've been thinking about you.

499
00:31:16,790 --> 00:31:20,400
Just hadn't reached the looking stage yet.

500
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,370
Which is the problem.

501
00:31:24,090 --> 00:31:27,000
You asked for a day. I gave you two.

502
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,690
You told me you had a secret you couldn't share. I respected that.

503
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,490
Now I don't know what's worse-- blowing off our vacation to hang around House

504
00:31:34,490 --> 00:31:37,130
or continuing to blow it off when he won't hang around you.

505
00:31:37,130 --> 00:31:38,870
If you think I'm the least bit interested in House--

506
00:31:38,870 --> 00:31:42,480
I don't know what I'm supposed to think.

507
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,610
I know this looks bad, and--

508
00:31:44,610 --> 00:31:47,700
I don't care how it looks. I care what it is.

509
00:31:47,700 --> 00:31:50,220
And you're not telling me what it is.

510
00:31:50,220 --> 00:31:53,690
I'm trying to trust you, but...

511
00:31:56,900 --> 00:31:57,740
Just...

512
00:32:01,870 --> 00:32:04,830
I need a little more time.

513
00:32:07,810 --> 00:32:08,560
No.

514
00:32:10,340 --> 00:32:15,050
This... has nothing to do with House.

515
00:32:15,050 --> 00:32:20,480
Yeah, well, it has nothing to do with me, either. Not anymore.

516
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,960
Let me know when I can come pick up my things.

517
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:51,230
Nothing on the echo. We drew a troponin level. No signs of myocardial ischemia.

518
00:32:51,230 --> 00:32:53,640
All the tests were normal.

519
00:32:53,930 --> 00:32:57,980
Loss of balance. Pathological hiccups. Air leak between the lungs.

520
00:32:57,980 --> 00:33:01,650
Broken femur, now tachycardia. Go!

521
00:33:05,630 --> 00:33:08,010
Come on, give me something. Give me a bad idea.

522
00:33:08,010 --> 00:33:10,590
Maybe I could turn it into a good one.

523
00:33:16,540 --> 00:33:20,050
Fine. Open him up, put in a defibrillator.

524
00:33:20,050 --> 00:33:21,600
That's permanent and risky.

525
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,960
We don't even know what, if anything, is wrong with his heart.

526
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:28,910
Redo all the tests. In the meantime, open him up, put in a defibrillator...

527
00:33:28,910 --> 00:33:32,690
So he can live long enough for you to finish the tests.

528
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:50,560
Balance organs, nerves, lungs, bones, heart.

529
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,340
Things you use to make bratwurst.

530
00:33:55,340 --> 00:33:58,050
There's no sign of infection.

531
00:33:58,050 --> 00:34:01,040
It's not a metabolic or autoimmune disease.

532
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,810
It's definitely not cancer. I think.

533
00:34:03,810 --> 00:34:06,460
Definitely not cancer.

534
00:34:08,100 --> 00:34:09,690
Aren't you gonna pick?

535
00:34:09,690 --> 00:34:12,450
I'm thinking. Is there a ticking clock?

536
00:34:12,450 --> 00:34:15,490
You already put your money in.

537
00:34:15,490 --> 00:34:17,750
You never do that until you decide.

538
00:34:17,750 --> 00:34:20,210
That's very observant of you. Too bad you distracted me.

539
00:34:20,210 --> 00:34:24,390
Now I'm... thinking I might change my mind.

540
00:34:27,150 --> 00:34:28,750
There's nothing healthy in that machine.

541
00:34:28,750 --> 00:34:31,660
No, there's not.

542
00:34:35,650 --> 00:34:39,780
Gummi bears. You hate gummi bears.

543
00:34:41,390 --> 00:34:44,300
- People can change.
- No.

544
00:34:44,300 --> 00:34:46,170
More importantly, I hate them.

545
00:34:46,170 --> 00:34:49,670
Oh, fine... then I won't offer you any.

546
00:34:52,100 --> 00:34:55,040
You manipulative bitch.

547
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,190
You're not suddenly eating healthy because you want to.

548
00:34:58,190 --> 00:35:01,310
You're eating healthy because you know I don't want to.

549
00:35:01,310 --> 00:35:04,780
I've been mooching food for ten years.

550
00:35:04,780 --> 00:35:08,310
Now, either it suddenly started bothering you this week...

551
00:35:08,310 --> 00:35:10,650
- Or you're--
- Screwing with you.

552
00:35:10,650 --> 00:35:13,510
It needed to be done.

553
00:35:13,510 --> 00:35:19,850
After Amber died, I withdrew, tried to change everything, hoping I'd sort it out, find some deeper truth.

554
00:35:19,850 --> 00:35:21,380
It was a mistake.

555
00:35:21,380 --> 00:35:26,810
I should have gone back to normal, to here and now, because that's all we can ever really count on.

556
00:35:27,870 --> 00:35:30,890
Things need to get back to normal in your life, and...

557
00:35:30,890 --> 00:35:34,330
What could be more normal than me screwing with you...

558
00:35:34,330 --> 00:35:37,350
And you figuring it out?

559
00:35:37,830 --> 00:35:40,780
You manipulative bitch.

560
00:35:56,540 --> 00:35:58,940
We need to put in a cardioverter-defibrillator.

561
00:35:58,940 --> 00:36:01,870
It'll keep your heart beating while we keep looking.

562
00:36:01,870 --> 00:36:03,110
What does that mean?

563
00:36:03,110 --> 00:36:06,320
It means, even if we figure this out,

564
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:11,220
you'll have to stop protesting anywhere not near a hospital.

565
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,260
Got a few questions.

566
00:36:16,260 --> 00:36:17,910
Uh, we're about to start doing--

567
00:36:17,910 --> 00:36:20,310
A hopefully pointless medical procedure.

568
00:36:20,310 --> 00:36:24,340
Your life and my mojo hang in the balance.

569
00:36:24,340 --> 00:36:26,410
Pesticides are evil.

570
00:36:26,410 --> 00:36:29,100
Which means that commercial flowers are dowsed in evil.

571
00:36:29,100 --> 00:36:33,030
But plant life is nature's answer to evil.

572
00:36:33,030 --> 00:36:34,820
So you have a garden?

573
00:36:34,820 --> 00:36:37,970
No, we live in an apartment.

574
00:36:38,710 --> 00:36:41,630
- A window box, then?
- No.

575
00:36:43,110 --> 00:36:45,590
- Potted plants?
- Nothing, the commercial growers--

576
00:36:45,590 --> 00:36:47,520
Yeah, they're evil. Yeah, got it.

577
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,530
House, I really don't think we have the time for this.

578
00:36:53,310 --> 00:36:56,050
Your marriage sucks.

579
00:36:57,410 --> 00:36:59,420
Thank you.

580
00:36:59,420 --> 00:37:01,960
All marriages suck. Your marriage sucks.

581
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:04,180
- No.
- I love her.

582
00:37:04,180 --> 00:37:06,900
He loves a tree in Oregon more than he loves you.

583
00:37:06,900 --> 00:37:08,430
But he can't have sex with it.

584
00:37:08,430 --> 00:37:10,870
Unless it's that slutty oak outside Portland.

585
00:37:10,870 --> 00:37:12,940
You wanna get to your point?

586
00:37:12,940 --> 00:37:15,190
She's had enough. She's gonna leave.

587
00:37:15,190 --> 00:37:17,320
Or maybe she's just not putting out, whatever.

588
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,520
You gotta make it right, right away.

589
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:23,530
You gotta compromise that precious flower principle.

590
00:37:24,430 --> 00:37:25,150
Never.

591
00:37:28,410 --> 00:37:29,660
Once.

592
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,130
Three weeks ago. Our anniversary.

593
00:37:37,130 --> 00:37:39,760
I missed the dinner to be at that rally.

594
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:44,300
You planned it for months. You were mad. Really mad.

595
00:37:44,300 --> 00:37:48,240
I bought you flowers. I brought them home.

596
00:37:48,530 --> 00:37:52,180
And you were gone. So was your suitcase.

597
00:37:52,180 --> 00:37:55,070
I tossed them and bought you the earrings.

598
00:37:55,740 --> 00:37:56,460
Roses?

599
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:04,280
Yes. You have sporotrichosis.

600
00:38:04,690 --> 00:38:10,880
It's an infection from the thorn of the rose which, by any other name, is still a cheap marital aid.

601
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:12,630
The flowers are what gave me--

602
00:38:12,630 --> 00:38:15,590
Lesion on your eight hemicranial nerve knocks out your balance.

603
00:38:15,590 --> 00:38:18,590
Another on your phrenic nerve gives you serial hiccups.

604
00:38:18,590 --> 00:38:22,910
We then spread it to your bones and heart with steroids and insulin-like growth factor.

605
00:38:22,910 --> 00:38:25,540
Please tell us that this is good news.

606
00:38:25,540 --> 00:38:27,510
It's good news for him.

607
00:38:27,510 --> 00:38:29,900
It's good news for future generations.

608
00:38:29,900 --> 00:38:33,320
It's crappy news for you. He's gonna be fine.

609
00:38:33,570 --> 00:38:36,690
He'll never doubt himself again.

610
00:38:44,290 --> 00:38:46,270
There you go.

611
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:53,190
Damn, I was hoping I would interrupt something.

612
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,520
Your favor's repaid. Patient's cured.

613
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,680
He's already packing for another earth day extravaganza next week.

614
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,580
He almost died. He can't take a few days at home with his family?

615
00:39:04,580 --> 00:39:08,950
People only change after trauma if they wanted to change before the trauma.

616
00:39:08,950 --> 00:39:12,040
Or if they've watched too many afterschool specials.

617
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,670
- You talking about Chase?
- I'm talking about you.

618
00:39:15,990 --> 00:39:17,800
You lost husband number one.

619
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:22,670
No surprise that the death of a colleague would make you question another long-term lease.

620
00:39:22,670 --> 00:39:25,580
You teaching commitment classes? 'Cause I thought you were too busy with your lecture--

621
00:39:25,580 --> 00:39:27,470
I'm sure that was going to be hysterical.

622
00:39:27,470 --> 00:39:28,760
Let me just give you the cliff notes.

623
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,060
Don't try to dump him by dumping cases on me.

624
00:39:32,060 --> 00:39:35,330
I told you I never wanted to dump Chase.

625
00:39:35,330 --> 00:39:37,760
Absolutely. You want him to dump you.

626
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,650
It's totally different. Much less guilt.

627
00:39:40,650 --> 00:39:44,260
Either way, you're out of reasons to avoid him.

628
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,580
Kutner was a pretty dumb one to begin with.

629
00:39:55,230 --> 00:39:58,420
I should never have postponed our vacation.

630
00:40:00,940 --> 00:40:03,940
I should never have planned it.

631
00:40:06,300 --> 00:40:09,130
I found the ring in your sock.

632
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,750
I didn't want you to propose out of some sort of...

633
00:40:17,750 --> 00:40:20,810
Knee-jerk reaction to what happened to Kutner.

634
00:40:23,100 --> 00:40:25,140
Well, guess you don't have to worry about that anymore.

635
00:40:25,140 --> 00:40:27,700
I'm not, I...

636
00:40:29,130 --> 00:40:33,840
I don't care what happens. I just... want it to happen.

637
00:40:36,110 --> 00:40:40,060
Are--are you proposing to me?

638
00:40:40,060 --> 00:40:44,270
I'm... proposing that...

639
00:40:45,390 --> 00:40:47,830
You propose to me.

640
00:40:47,830 --> 00:40:49,810
After I broke up with you?

641
00:40:49,810 --> 00:40:52,980
After you ruined my planned proposal, you expect me to--

642
00:40:52,980 --> 00:40:58,670
I'm not expecting. I'm hoping.

643
00:41:27,070 --> 00:41:28,070
Yes.

644
00:43:02,130 --> 00:43:05,160
Solved another case.

645
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,990
Busted Wilson.

646
00:43:09,950 --> 00:43:13,740
Looks like you're not losing it after all.
