1
00:01:08,935 --> 00:01:10,596
Doc! Help! Doc!
2
00:01:25,785 --> 00:01:27,719
It stopped bleeding.
It stopped bleeding.
3
00:01:27,787 --> 00:01:31,518
That's because your blood is
freezing as it's hitting the air.
4
00:01:32,325 --> 00:01:34,020
Here. Apply
pressure on it.
5
00:01:34,094 --> 00:01:35,493
I think
my leg is frozen.
6
00:01:35,595 --> 00:01:39,156
That's the least of your problems.
The blade severed your femoral artery.
7
00:01:49,742 --> 00:01:51,300
Am I going
to lose my leg?
8
00:01:51,377 --> 00:01:52,605
Frostbite's not too bad.
9
00:01:52,679 --> 00:01:55,705
But I've got to fix your artery
now. This is going to hurt.
10
00:02:03,089 --> 00:02:04,147
Are you going
to put that in me?
11
00:02:04,257 --> 00:02:06,851
Glue's the best way to repair
your artery at this temperature.
12
00:02:09,562 --> 00:02:10,722
It looks okay.
13
00:02:10,830 --> 00:02:13,196
Here. Tear off some pieces.
I have to check your foot.
14
00:02:19,806 --> 00:02:23,139
Blood flow looks good.
Your leg should be okay.
15
00:02:23,910 --> 00:02:25,502
I thought I was done.
16
00:02:25,578 --> 00:02:28,513
Yeah, like I'd let
anything happen to you.
17
00:02:28,581 --> 00:02:30,446
You're the only one
who could fix the generators.
18
00:02:32,152 --> 00:02:34,814
Okay. One, two...
19
00:02:36,589 --> 00:02:39,649
Cate. Cate, are you okay? Are you okay?
20
00:02:42,095 --> 00:02:43,357
Hey.
21
00:02:50,103 --> 00:02:51,832
I need help.
22
00:02:52,839 --> 00:02:54,101
Who am I supposed to get?
23
00:03:44,824 --> 00:03:47,258
Why do I even
give you an office?
24
00:03:47,327 --> 00:03:49,795
New case. Psych department
asked for you personally.
25
00:03:49,896 --> 00:03:51,158
The patient's
a crazy person?
26
00:03:51,231 --> 00:03:52,596
You're a crazy person.
27
00:03:52,665 --> 00:03:53,927
The patient's
a psychiatrist.
28
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,729
There's something wrong
with coma guy's cable.
29
00:03:56,936 --> 00:03:58,597
He seems fine with it.
30
00:03:58,805 --> 00:04:01,638
Your patient is an adjunct faculty
member here, but currently...
31
00:04:04,444 --> 00:04:08,778
The budget committee voted to charge
for cable in the patient rooms.
32
00:04:09,849 --> 00:04:11,510
Slippery slope.
33
00:04:11,618 --> 00:04:13,984
Today, we withhold porn.
Tomorrow, it's clean bandages.
34
00:04:14,053 --> 00:04:16,954
Talk to Carlson in Derm,
he runs the budget committee,
35
00:04:17,023 --> 00:04:18,547
after you look at this.
36
00:04:18,625 --> 00:04:21,185
After you talk to Carlson, maybe I'll...
37
00:04:21,294 --> 00:04:23,626
The patient is trapped
at the South Pole.
38
00:04:33,006 --> 00:04:34,701
Any possibility
of evacuating her?
39
00:04:34,774 --> 00:04:36,241
Well, that wouldn't
be any fun.
40
00:04:36,342 --> 00:04:41,006
And for the next two months, winds make
it impossible to fly anything in or out.
41
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,911
Could be appendicitis
or a gallstone.
44
00:04:46,753 --> 00:04:49,483
If it's appendicitis down there,
her appendix ruptures, she dies.
45
00:04:49,555 --> 00:04:51,785
There's nothing we can do. If
it's a stone, she takes pain meds,
46
00:04:51,858 --> 00:04:53,758
stone passes. There's nothing we need to do.
47
00:04:53,826 --> 00:04:55,760
Could be a struvite
kidney stone.
48
00:04:55,862 --> 00:04:59,821
Most kidney stones are calcium and benign.
Why would you suspect a struvite stone?
49
00:04:59,899 --> 00:05:01,924
Because he said kidney stones were boring.
50
00:05:02,035 --> 00:05:04,833
It's possible.
She's on birth control.
51
00:05:04,904 --> 00:05:07,168
Lots of sex could lead
to urinary tract infection,
52
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,731
which could lead to an
infection-laced struvite kidney stone.
53
00:05:09,842 --> 00:05:12,106
Excessive
Antarctic drilling,
54
00:05:12,679 --> 00:05:14,579
bad for the environment
and the ladies.
55
00:05:14,681 --> 00:05:16,615
If it's a struvite stone, she
needs to break it up quickly
56
00:05:16,716 --> 00:05:18,377
before the infection
shuts down her kidneys.
57
00:05:18,451 --> 00:05:20,112
This is where
it gets fun.
58
00:05:21,254 --> 00:05:25,088
These are the supplies and
medications she has available.
59
00:05:28,194 --> 00:05:29,718
Nothing here that could
break up a kidney stone.
60
00:05:30,496 --> 00:05:31,724
What else do they
have down there?
61
00:05:32,365 --> 00:05:35,163
I just said... I don't mean
medical stuff. Other stuff.
62
00:05:36,436 --> 00:05:38,461
Some geological equipment
breaks ice and rock
63
00:05:38,571 --> 00:05:39,902
the same way
we break kidney stones.
64
00:05:44,243 --> 00:05:47,212
Discovery Channel. I like
watching them blow stuff up.
65
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:48,747
Who doesn't?
66
00:05:50,316 --> 00:05:51,442
That reminds me.
67
00:05:52,051 --> 00:05:54,042
Coma guy
needs cable.
68
00:05:54,354 --> 00:05:56,652
Women's billiards is the only
thing that's keeping him alive.
69
00:05:56,723 --> 00:05:59,283
I'm sure Carlson will be moved by his plight.
70
00:05:59,392 --> 00:06:01,519
Carlson won't listen.
He says I hit on his wife.
71
00:06:02,495 --> 00:06:03,792
You knew?
God, no.
72
00:06:03,896 --> 00:06:05,659
I thought I was hitting
on his daughter.
73
00:06:05,865 --> 00:06:08,493
Look, you're on the
committee. He'll listen to you.
74
00:06:08,601 --> 00:06:11,331
I'm an avid reader of Committees
with Hotties message boards.
75
00:06:11,437 --> 00:06:13,132
Amoxicillin,
500 milligrams, IV.
76
00:06:13,239 --> 00:06:17,938
Studies conducted at major hospitals
indicate that happy patients recover faster.
77
00:06:18,010 --> 00:06:21,104
Studies conducted in my apartment
show that TV makes people happy.
78
00:06:21,180 --> 00:06:23,546
Premium channels have a
particularly striking effect.
79
00:06:23,649 --> 00:06:26,516
Charging patients for cable is
bringing in 13 grand a month.
80
00:06:26,619 --> 00:06:31,716
Until this injustice is righted,
I am going to waste 13 grand a day.
81
00:06:34,727 --> 00:06:36,558
That's $2.49 down.
82
00:06:37,497 --> 00:06:39,328
Get an EKG
and a cardiac enzyme.
83
00:06:39,399 --> 00:06:42,300
If those check out, discharge him,
and tell him to get a snow-blower.
84
00:06:43,903 --> 00:06:46,701
How much is 13 grand
divided by 4 cents?
85
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,471
I am not
giving you cable.
86
00:06:49,542 --> 00:06:52,409
You're gonna have to somehow survive
with the broadcast networks alone.
87
00:06:52,512 --> 00:06:54,571
I'll be fine
on Tuesdays.
88
00:06:56,549 --> 00:06:59,017
If sound waves from the
flaw detector break the egg,
89
00:06:59,085 --> 00:07:01,212
it should safely dissolve
your kidney stone.
90
00:07:07,593 --> 00:07:08,855
This isn't
going to work.
91
00:07:08,928 --> 00:07:10,190
Well, there's no reason it shouldn't.
92
00:07:10,263 --> 00:07:12,527
Sound waves are sound
waves. Stones are stones.
93
00:07:12,598 --> 00:07:15,658
Some are bigger than others.
Some are inside me.
94
00:07:15,735 --> 00:07:18,033
How's it going,
Team MacGyver?
95
00:07:18,104 --> 00:07:19,366
Oh, great.
96
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:22,772
I can't get cable, but I can
get the South Pole on high-def.
97
00:07:22,875 --> 00:07:24,274
We're almost ready
to start the test.
98
00:07:24,343 --> 00:07:27,005
Test? Did Ford
test the Edsel?
99
00:07:27,747 --> 00:07:32,446
Did Coke test New Coke? Did Shakespeare
test his final play, Snow Dogs?
100
00:07:32,552 --> 00:07:34,850
I'm guessing
you're Dr. House?
101
00:07:36,088 --> 00:07:38,921
I was wondering
when you might drop by.
102
00:07:39,725 --> 00:07:40,851
Could she see me?
103
00:07:40,927 --> 00:07:42,087
Oh, yeah.
104
00:07:42,728 --> 00:07:44,491
You think Jagger shows up
for the sound check?
105
00:07:49,068 --> 00:07:50,899
Okay, roadies,
off the stage.
106
00:07:52,238 --> 00:07:53,569
Go help Cameron
in the ER.
107
00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:56,130
Why? No way you're just
doing her a favor.
108
00:07:56,242 --> 00:07:57,800
ER is standing room only.
109
00:07:57,910 --> 00:07:59,377
Which means Cameron's bound
to make a mistake.
110
00:07:59,879 --> 00:08:01,312
Find it so I can
blackmail her.
111
00:08:02,582 --> 00:08:03,708
As far as you know,
112
00:08:03,783 --> 00:08:07,446
this is way more than just
some silly battle over cable.
113
00:08:13,459 --> 00:08:14,790
Ready.
114
00:08:40,119 --> 00:08:42,553
You might wanna
dial it down a smidge.
115
00:08:44,056 --> 00:08:46,718
I am not doing this.
116
00:08:47,193 --> 00:08:50,356
Your kidney stone theory hinges
on me having sex, but I...
117
00:08:50,463 --> 00:08:53,057
Let me guess. You're as
pure as the driven snow.
118
00:08:53,165 --> 00:08:54,962
Only if the snow
likes to be on top.
119
00:08:55,735 --> 00:08:58,067
But I am here doing
psychological research.
120
00:08:58,170 --> 00:09:01,196
Generally not a good idea to
swap fluids with your subjects.
121
00:09:01,307 --> 00:09:04,674
Struvite stones are possible
in people who don't have sex.
122
00:09:04,744 --> 00:09:06,974
They're certainly possible
in people who claim not to...
123
00:09:07,046 --> 00:09:10,482
I've had no UTI's,
no pain on urination.
124
00:09:10,550 --> 00:09:13,144
You do realize that only
one of us is a real doctor.
125
00:09:13,219 --> 00:09:16,120
You do realize only one of us
has any control over my actions.
126
00:09:19,692 --> 00:09:21,922
Dr. Milton, are you able
to run a CHEM-7?
127
00:09:21,994 --> 00:09:23,018
Yes.
128
00:09:23,129 --> 00:09:24,960
Well, that'd tell us if her
kidney function is declining.
129
00:09:25,364 --> 00:09:26,661
If it is, he's right.
130
00:09:26,732 --> 00:09:28,927
Struvite stone's the most likely explanation.
131
00:09:29,001 --> 00:09:30,866
If not, she's right.
132
00:09:35,708 --> 00:09:38,541
Sorry. I know how you like to
avoid avoiding confrontation.
133
00:09:38,611 --> 00:09:42,911
While we're waiting for that test to
prove me right, start IV cefuroxime.
134
00:09:43,015 --> 00:09:45,575
Keep the infection in the stone
from wiping out your kidneys.
135
00:09:45,685 --> 00:09:47,846
I'll send the CHEM-7
results when I'm done.
136
00:09:52,525 --> 00:09:56,552
She's a great psychiatrist.
One session, I've got shrinkage.
137
00:09:57,029 --> 00:10:00,157
House wants us to spy on you, report back.
138
00:10:01,934 --> 00:10:03,595
And you're telling me this because...
139
00:10:03,669 --> 00:10:05,193
We don't want
to do it.
140
00:10:05,271 --> 00:10:06,431
I don't see
a problem so far.
141
00:10:06,539 --> 00:10:09,440
If our choice is between pissing
House off or pissing you off,
142
00:10:09,542 --> 00:10:11,100
that's not much
of a choice.
143
00:10:11,210 --> 00:10:13,644
So unless
I give House cable,
144
00:10:13,779 --> 00:10:15,542
you're gonna make
my life miserable.
145
00:10:15,615 --> 00:10:17,173
Yes.
146
00:10:17,249 --> 00:10:20,241
And you're telling me this so you
won't feel as guilty when you do it.
147
00:10:22,355 --> 00:10:23,515
Yes.
148
00:10:23,756 --> 00:10:26,554
Accommodating House's every
whim is not my job anymore.
149
00:10:26,626 --> 00:10:28,218
But it is ours.
150
00:10:29,061 --> 00:10:31,393
House will get
what he wants.
151
00:10:37,470 --> 00:10:40,496
Maybe we should just pay for it
ourselves and tell him she folded.
152
00:10:41,907 --> 00:10:43,101
No.
153
00:10:45,044 --> 00:10:49,538
Your CHEM-7 results showed your
kidney function is declining.
154
00:10:49,615 --> 00:10:50,980
Sounds like
a kidney stone to me.
155
00:10:51,083 --> 00:10:52,573
The decreased function
156
00:10:52,652 --> 00:10:56,588
could be from dehydration caused
by vomiting due to a gallstone.
157
00:10:56,656 --> 00:10:59,989
You agreed that the CHEM-7 would
decide if it was a struvite stone.
158
00:11:00,092 --> 00:11:03,721
I agreed to do the test. The
results are up for interpretation.
159
00:11:03,796 --> 00:11:06,230
I'll re-do the test in an
hour when I'm re-hydrated.
160
00:11:06,298 --> 00:11:09,893
Have you noticed any improvement
since starting the cefuroxime?
161
00:11:09,969 --> 00:11:11,368
Not really. Pain's
about the same.
162
00:11:11,437 --> 00:11:13,064
While you're waiting, we
should run another test
163
00:11:13,139 --> 00:11:14,231
with the geology
equipment.
164
00:11:14,306 --> 00:11:15,739
You're not taking
the cefuroxime.
165
00:11:16,509 --> 00:11:18,272
She's right-handed.
166
00:11:18,344 --> 00:11:20,972
Means she would put
the IV in her left arm.
167
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,014
Catheter in the arm makes
it hard to bend the elbow,
168
00:11:23,115 --> 00:11:24,343
the way people do
when they drink.
169
00:11:24,450 --> 00:11:28,113
We have a limited supply of medication,
and I am not about to waste it.
170
00:11:28,187 --> 00:11:30,246
Last I checked you had
a limited supply of doctors.
171
00:11:30,322 --> 00:11:35,021
Right before I got sick, one of my
crew members severed his femoral artery.
172
00:11:35,127 --> 00:11:36,424
He needs
the cefuroxime.
173
00:11:36,495 --> 00:11:37,792
Right.
He called dibs.
174
00:11:37,863 --> 00:11:42,129
His need is definitive.
Mine is speculative.
175
00:11:42,668 --> 00:11:44,033
You're breathing fast.
176
00:11:44,136 --> 00:11:45,660
It's because
I'm pissed off!
177
00:11:45,771 --> 00:11:48,706
Lift up your chin.
Show me your windpipe.
178
00:11:51,444 --> 00:11:53,435
My chest hurts.
179
00:11:53,512 --> 00:11:54,604
It's deviating to the left.
180
00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:56,011
Because her right lung
is collapsing.
181
00:11:56,082 --> 00:11:57,845
Cate, is anyone
there with you?
182
00:11:57,950 --> 00:11:59,440
Sean went to the mess.
You need to call someone.
183
00:11:59,518 --> 00:12:01,679
There's no time. Get a syringe and a needle.
184
00:12:01,787 --> 00:12:03,345
Why am I doing that?
Shut up and look.
185
00:12:05,725 --> 00:12:07,056
She could pass out.
She needs to...
186
00:12:07,126 --> 00:12:08,423
She needs to re-inflate that lung.
187
00:12:09,361 --> 00:12:10,953
Okay. Now, pull out
the plunger.
188
00:12:11,030 --> 00:12:13,055
I want you to stab
yourself in your right side
189
00:12:13,165 --> 00:12:16,032
between the second and third
rib, in the midclavicular line.
190
00:12:18,838 --> 00:12:21,204
By the time we get someone else
there, you'll have suffocated.
191
00:12:21,407 --> 00:12:22,567
Just do it.
192
00:12:35,054 --> 00:12:37,249
See all the good stuff that
happens when you listen to me?
193
00:12:40,025 --> 00:12:41,617
Means it's not
a kidney stone.
194
00:12:52,037 --> 00:12:54,028
Right side pain,
vomiting,
195
00:12:54,106 --> 00:12:57,439
and now a lung that gets
traumatized without any trauma.
196
00:12:57,543 --> 00:12:59,204
Sounds odd.
Probably is odd.
197
00:12:59,278 --> 00:13:01,143
We should discuss this,
then call her back.
198
00:13:01,247 --> 00:13:05,308
No, it's fine. I made sure we got
the South Pole long distance plan.
199
00:13:05,417 --> 00:13:07,408
Her latest kidney
function test shows...
200
00:13:07,486 --> 00:13:09,317
I know what it shows. I ran it.
201
00:13:09,421 --> 00:13:12,117
The more you interrupt, the longer
my grandstanding is going to take.
202
00:13:12,224 --> 00:13:14,658
Since when do you let patients
participate in differentials?
203
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,228
Since the patient and her doctor
happen to be the same person.
204
00:13:17,963 --> 00:13:20,989
Your kidney function is still declining.
Means you have a kidney problem.
205
00:13:21,100 --> 00:13:24,467
But not one that needed
antibiotics. Makes us equally wrong.
206
00:13:24,570 --> 00:13:27,733
No. Makes us both wrong. Not equally.
207
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,667
You were at least
six wronger.
208
00:13:30,609 --> 00:13:32,577
They run a PPD
before you shipped out?
209
00:13:32,645 --> 00:13:34,579
On me and everybody else here.
It's not TB.
210
00:13:34,647 --> 00:13:36,478
Excuse us a second.
211
00:13:37,817 --> 00:13:39,614
Cancer explains
her symptoms.
212
00:13:39,685 --> 00:13:42,779
A tumor in her lung or kidney that
threw a clot to the other organ.
213
00:13:42,855 --> 00:13:46,416
And you're worried the tumor might
overhear, realize we're on to it.
214
00:13:46,492 --> 00:13:49,791
Cancer's a hard diagnosis for patients,
even when they're not in the South Pole.
215
00:13:49,862 --> 00:13:52,126
We should figure this out,
maybe bring Wilson in.
216
00:13:57,870 --> 00:14:00,168
Obviously, you two think
I'm in bad shape.
217
00:14:00,272 --> 00:14:02,365
Only if you count the tumor. House.
218
00:14:02,441 --> 00:14:03,965
Probably
in your abdomen.
219
00:14:04,510 --> 00:14:06,375
But you don't have any
advanced imaging equipment.
220
00:14:06,478 --> 00:14:08,139
You also don't have
a surgeon to biopsy it,
221
00:14:08,214 --> 00:14:10,079
any stains to use
on the slide,
222
00:14:10,149 --> 00:14:12,083
or an oncologist
to analyze it.
223
00:14:12,985 --> 00:14:14,577
I'm too far away
to hold her hand.
224
00:14:15,487 --> 00:14:16,613
I have cancer?
225
00:14:17,356 --> 00:14:18,380
Possibly.
226
00:14:18,490 --> 00:14:22,688
Since the only imaging equipment
you have is x-ray, let's start there.
227
00:14:22,795 --> 00:14:24,820
X- ray your entire body.
228
00:14:25,231 --> 00:14:27,165
I'll upload the images
when I'm done.
229
00:14:31,036 --> 00:14:32,628
Good for you.
230
00:14:59,965 --> 00:15:01,523
She's annoying.
231
00:15:01,967 --> 00:15:05,368
Refused to take the antibiotics
because other people might need them.
232
00:15:05,471 --> 00:15:08,201
She said she cares
about other people?
233
00:15:08,274 --> 00:15:09,468
What a poser.
234
00:15:10,042 --> 00:15:11,509
KUB is clean.
235
00:15:11,577 --> 00:15:14,637
You don't like her
because she's a psychiatrist.
236
00:15:14,713 --> 00:15:17,910
Mmm, I'm a complicated man.
I loathe her for many reasons.
237
00:15:17,983 --> 00:15:20,144
Never before has a profession been so decried
238
00:15:20,219 --> 00:15:22,210
by someone who
needed it so badly.
239
00:15:22,321 --> 00:15:25,484
You talk a lot of smack
about tranny hookers.
240
00:15:25,557 --> 00:15:27,354
Enlarged mediastinal node.
241
00:15:27,426 --> 00:15:28,484
Lymphoma?
Probably,
242
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,551
but we can't confirm it
without a biopsy.
243
00:15:30,663 --> 00:15:32,255
We can't analyze
a biopsy without a stain.
244
00:15:32,331 --> 00:15:33,525
We can't biopsy.
245
00:15:33,599 --> 00:15:36,397
Since they don't have stains
down there, we need a substitute.
246
00:15:36,502 --> 00:15:39,903
She can't biopsy that node
without a surgical team and an OR.
247
00:15:40,005 --> 00:15:43,441
Anything with a strong color
could work as a stain.
248
00:15:44,076 --> 00:15:46,510
Printer ink, food coloring, coffee.
249
00:15:46,578 --> 00:15:47,704
No, thanks.
250
00:15:47,780 --> 00:15:50,214
I'll find a node closer to the
surface. One she can biopsy.
251
00:15:51,216 --> 00:15:52,274
That makes sense.
252
00:15:52,351 --> 00:15:53,375
That makes sense?
253
00:15:53,452 --> 00:15:54,680
I said it first.
254
00:15:54,753 --> 00:15:57,119
In a shockingly
calm manner.
255
00:15:58,090 --> 00:16:00,854
After I've just been jerking
you around for 30 seconds
256
00:16:00,926 --> 00:16:03,554
without you complaining
or analyzing said jerking.
257
00:16:03,629 --> 00:16:04,994
I was being mature.
258
00:16:05,764 --> 00:16:07,231
In a lavender shirt.
259
00:16:07,733 --> 00:16:10,224
You, for some reason,
are happy.
260
00:16:10,302 --> 00:16:11,860
How dare you.
261
00:16:11,937 --> 00:16:14,235
The x-rays don't show
any other abnormal nodes.
262
00:16:14,306 --> 00:16:18,436
Abnormal nodes can be felt before
they can be seen on an x-ray.
263
00:16:18,978 --> 00:16:20,741
You're wearing that shirt for someone.
264
00:16:20,813 --> 00:16:23,281
The Health Department. They
frown on topless oncology.
265
00:16:23,382 --> 00:16:24,713
You're gonna do
a physical?
266
00:16:24,783 --> 00:16:28,219
Have to. You and Foreman are going
to be here looking for a stain.
267
00:16:31,557 --> 00:16:34,355
I can do the physical. There's
no reason you need to watch.
268
00:16:34,827 --> 00:16:37,091
I can think of at least three reasons.
269
00:16:37,162 --> 00:16:38,493
One of them is medical.
270
00:16:38,597 --> 00:16:40,565
Where are you?
Not in your office.
271
00:16:40,632 --> 00:16:42,657
You're not in the hospital.
No reason for me to be.
272
00:16:42,768 --> 00:16:45,828
I'm not undressing for you
in your apartment.
273
00:16:45,938 --> 00:16:47,235
You're not in
my apartment.
274
00:16:47,573 --> 00:16:50,337
You're three quarters
of a world away.
275
00:16:50,809 --> 00:16:52,242
I promise not to get fresh.
276
00:16:52,311 --> 00:16:53,710
I'm not taking off
my clothes.
277
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:55,806
One of us has to.
278
00:17:00,953 --> 00:17:02,784
Show me your place.
279
00:17:05,457 --> 00:17:09,086
It's got walls, a floor,
and in some places, a roof.
280
00:17:09,161 --> 00:17:12,324
I am not exposing myself
without some reciprocity.
281
00:17:12,431 --> 00:17:14,092
It's my apartment.
It's not my soul.
282
00:17:19,638 --> 00:17:21,128
Living room.
283
00:17:21,940 --> 00:17:22,929
Slow down.
284
00:17:23,409 --> 00:17:24,398
Huh!
285
00:17:25,444 --> 00:17:28,504
Lots of books.
I'm betting all medical.
286
00:17:28,614 --> 00:17:32,050
Only if you count Jenna Jameson's
autobiography as a gynecological text.
287
00:17:32,151 --> 00:17:33,709
Fiction is a waste of time.
288
00:17:34,153 --> 00:17:35,643
Unless you can laugh
at it?
289
00:17:35,721 --> 00:17:37,882
I love to laugh.
Moving on.
290
00:17:40,125 --> 00:17:41,114
Back up.
291
00:17:42,828 --> 00:17:44,159
How bad is the insomnia?
292
00:17:45,464 --> 00:17:46,726
Let me quantify that.
293
00:17:46,832 --> 00:17:51,565
Do you drink two or three scotches
before passing out in front of the TV?
294
00:17:52,071 --> 00:17:53,629
You are so far off.
295
00:17:54,206 --> 00:17:55,468
It's bourbon.
296
00:17:57,576 --> 00:17:58,736
No photos anywhere.
297
00:17:59,478 --> 00:18:00,809
Family and friends
aren't important?
298
00:18:02,181 --> 00:18:03,341
Well, you're sick.
299
00:18:03,415 --> 00:18:06,543
You have 20 people down the hall,
and you've had exactly one visitor.
300
00:18:06,652 --> 00:18:07,983
I don't want
to panic anyone.
301
00:18:08,053 --> 00:18:11,489
You don't like people. You
hide on that ice cube, so...
302
00:18:11,557 --> 00:18:17,189
Stop projecting. You're antisocial,
so you assume I'm antisocial?
303
00:18:17,296 --> 00:18:19,526
How about if I just get
naked, and you shut up?
304
00:18:19,631 --> 00:18:22,429
If I thought I could get you
naked, I would have led with that.
305
00:18:23,535 --> 00:18:25,696
You'd rather show me
your soul than your leg.
306
00:18:27,473 --> 00:18:30,169
Great. You got me
all figured out.
307
00:18:30,876 --> 00:18:32,400
You going to try
and fix me now?
308
00:18:33,212 --> 00:18:35,646
I never said
you needed fixing.
309
00:18:38,250 --> 00:18:40,810
He's letting her take
part in the differentials.
310
00:18:40,886 --> 00:18:43,514
Of course he is.
He likes her.
311
00:18:43,589 --> 00:18:47,116
Big shock. Spaghetti sauce doesn't
work as a lymph tissue stain.
312
00:18:47,993 --> 00:18:50,325
I'll try the coffee.
313
00:18:50,395 --> 00:18:53,421
He's annoyed by her, doesn't
respect her as a doctor,
314
00:18:53,532 --> 00:18:55,159
constantly
insults her.
315
00:18:55,234 --> 00:18:57,930
That's House's version
of courtship.
316
00:18:58,770 --> 00:19:01,034
Oh, God. He's been wooing me for years.
317
00:19:01,106 --> 00:19:02,664
She's the perfect
woman for him.
318
00:19:02,741 --> 00:19:05,608
Willing to literally go to the
end of the earth for her career,
319
00:19:05,711 --> 00:19:08,544
making her unavailable
for a real relationship.
320
00:19:08,614 --> 00:19:11,082
And she's afflicted
with a mysterious illness.
321
00:19:11,183 --> 00:19:13,117
Soy sauce is a no-go.
322
00:19:13,919 --> 00:19:15,318
We're gonna be here
all night.
323
00:19:16,622 --> 00:19:18,180
How long does it take you to get naked?
324
00:19:18,257 --> 00:19:20,088
It's the South Pole.
325
00:19:20,626 --> 00:19:21,888
I wear a lot of layers.
326
00:19:23,896 --> 00:19:26,228
Okay. Ready.
327
00:19:26,298 --> 00:19:28,232
I saw socks.
328
00:19:28,300 --> 00:19:29,528
That's not naked.
329
00:19:29,601 --> 00:19:30,795
Have I mentioned
it's freezing here?
330
00:19:31,370 --> 00:19:35,534
When they discover lymph nodes
in feet, I will take off my socks.
331
00:19:36,241 --> 00:19:38,436
Use your right hand
to palpate the nodes.
332
00:19:39,211 --> 00:19:42,112
Any node you can feel
is the one we can biopsy.
333
00:19:42,214 --> 00:19:45,775
Let's start with your breasts,
move down to the ass, then...
334
00:19:45,884 --> 00:19:49,081
I was thinking go from the
neck and work my way down.
335
00:19:49,154 --> 00:19:50,917
We could,
336
00:19:50,989 --> 00:19:54,083
but I'd never forgive myself if we found
something before we got to your breasts.
337
00:19:56,061 --> 00:19:58,256
I'm starting with
the anterior cervical nodes.
338
00:20:04,269 --> 00:20:05,998
Turn your head.
339
00:20:06,104 --> 00:20:08,231
Locate the SCM muscle.
340
00:20:08,807 --> 00:20:10,900
I know how to find
my lymph nodes.
341
00:20:10,976 --> 00:20:15,208
Did they teach you that before or after
the class on fondling your inner child?
342
00:20:16,982 --> 00:20:19,974
No swelling. No tenderness. And...
343
00:20:20,953 --> 00:20:22,511
I can hear that, House.
344
00:20:22,621 --> 00:20:24,418
Just thought
it might help you relax.
345
00:20:26,792 --> 00:20:28,521
Anything in
the axillary nodes?
346
00:20:29,261 --> 00:20:31,320
All clear.
347
00:20:31,997 --> 00:20:33,055
Both sides.
348
00:20:33,865 --> 00:20:36,493
Now slide your hand
to your sternum.
349
00:20:38,670 --> 00:20:42,663
Probe for nodes
moving slowly downward.
350
00:20:43,775 --> 00:20:45,265
Down to what, House?
351
00:20:45,344 --> 00:20:48,438
Sorry. Can't hear you on
account of your heavy breathing.
352
00:20:48,513 --> 00:20:50,174
I'm supposed to be
on oxygen, you tool.
353
00:20:56,188 --> 00:20:57,382
Hold it.
354
00:20:57,489 --> 00:21:00,549
Your fingers didn't go quite
as deep. Feel that node again.
355
00:21:01,827 --> 00:21:03,556
It's swollen.
356
00:21:06,498 --> 00:21:07,897
Looks like you're
doing a biopsy.
357
00:21:20,445 --> 00:21:22,242
It's pretty numb.
358
00:21:22,314 --> 00:21:26,648
Okay. Take a deep breath and
insert the needle into the node.
359
00:21:29,288 --> 00:21:32,155
Come on, Cate.
Let's get this over with.
360
00:21:34,092 --> 00:21:35,821
You used her name.
361
00:21:37,663 --> 00:21:39,824
Just trying to move
things along, Bob.
362
00:21:48,974 --> 00:21:50,464
Okay. I'm in.
363
00:21:50,542 --> 00:21:52,635
You need to pull back
on the syringe.
364
00:21:55,847 --> 00:21:56,905
You need
to pull harder.
365
00:22:07,626 --> 00:22:08,991
You okay?
366
00:22:09,661 --> 00:22:10,855
Yeah.
367
00:22:13,498 --> 00:22:14,590
"Are you okay?"
368
00:22:14,666 --> 00:22:15,860
It's a valid
medical question.
369
00:22:15,967 --> 00:22:18,367
I have never heard you
ask a patient that question.
370
00:22:18,470 --> 00:22:19,698
You've never asked me
that question,
371
00:22:19,805 --> 00:22:23,639
and you've seen me fall down
a flight of stairs drunk.
372
00:22:23,709 --> 00:22:25,802
You've slept with her.
373
00:22:25,877 --> 00:22:27,936
She's 9,000 miles away.
374
00:22:28,814 --> 00:22:30,441
And while a certain part
of me, unfurled...
375
00:22:30,515 --> 00:22:32,005
No, I...
376
00:22:32,117 --> 00:22:35,553
Somehow, you've been
intimate with her.
377
00:22:35,654 --> 00:22:37,019
Why are you
following me?
378
00:22:37,889 --> 00:22:38,981
I thought you were
following me.
379
00:22:39,057 --> 00:22:40,649
No. You are definitely
following me.
380
00:22:40,726 --> 00:22:42,284
Where are you going?
Out to lunch.
381
00:22:42,361 --> 00:22:43,521
You never go
out to lunch.
382
00:22:43,628 --> 00:22:45,186
Which means there's a reason
you're going out to lunch.
383
00:22:45,297 --> 00:22:47,026
I assume that reason
is a human being.
384
00:22:47,132 --> 00:22:48,360
Or a sandwich.
385
00:22:48,433 --> 00:22:49,559
Sandwiches can come here.
386
00:22:49,668 --> 00:22:50,896
So can human beings.
387
00:22:50,969 --> 00:22:52,834
And yet, she's not,
which I find interesting.
388
00:22:52,904 --> 00:22:54,132
I'm leaving, now.
389
00:22:54,639 --> 00:22:56,072
Small world.
390
00:22:56,575 --> 00:22:59,544
Are you going to
follow me into my car?
391
00:23:00,312 --> 00:23:01,711
It's got two doors.
392
00:23:01,813 --> 00:23:05,408
Okay, look, the reason
I haven't told you is...
393
00:23:11,656 --> 00:23:13,749
Call off
your dogs, House.
394
00:23:13,859 --> 00:23:15,554
Your little helpers are
interrogating my patients,
395
00:23:15,660 --> 00:23:17,992
swiping my charts,
intercepting prescriptions.
396
00:23:18,063 --> 00:23:19,087
Why would you think
that I...
397
00:23:19,164 --> 00:23:20,426
Because I'm not
a moron.
398
00:23:20,532 --> 00:23:22,762
You had to be pulling
the strings, here.
399
00:23:22,868 --> 00:23:24,165
You think that because
they make me miserable,
400
00:23:24,236 --> 00:23:25,601
I'm going to
give you cable.
401
00:23:26,338 --> 00:23:27,635
Let's assume that's true,
402
00:23:27,806 --> 00:23:29,535
and it certainly sounds
like it might be.
403
00:23:29,608 --> 00:23:31,166
What are you going to do?
Nothing.
404
00:23:31,243 --> 00:23:32,904
I resigned from
the budget committee.
405
00:23:33,011 --> 00:23:36,447
I only joined the committee to help
the hospital. You made me a liability.
406
00:23:36,548 --> 00:23:39,779
I now have zero influence over
the hospital's cable policy.
407
00:23:50,295 --> 00:23:51,592
Well done.
408
00:23:51,696 --> 00:23:53,561
It didn't work. There's
nothing more that we can do...
409
00:23:53,632 --> 00:23:55,190
Put these up.
410
00:23:56,535 --> 00:23:58,025
"Free rottweiler
puppies.
411
00:23:58,103 --> 00:24:01,129
"Please call after 11:00 p. m.
And before 5:00 a. m."
412
00:24:01,239 --> 00:24:02,263
Is this Cameron's
home number?
413
00:24:02,340 --> 00:24:04,240
I'd love a new puppy.
414
00:24:04,309 --> 00:24:06,607
My last one was delicious, very tender.
415
00:24:06,678 --> 00:24:08,236
There's no point
in torturing her.
416
00:24:08,313 --> 00:24:11,942
If she can resign, she can
un-resign. Go to DEFCON 1.
417
00:24:12,050 --> 00:24:13,950
Forget waiting for a mistake.
Make her make one.
418
00:24:14,052 --> 00:24:16,543
You want us to sabotage
another doctor,
419
00:24:16,621 --> 00:24:19,385
possibly harm a patient,
all so you can have cable.
420
00:24:19,458 --> 00:24:23,588
Harm suggests permanent damage.
Get her to screw up, then fix it.
421
00:24:23,662 --> 00:24:25,027
Oh! And this time,
422
00:24:25,130 --> 00:24:27,098
don't tell her what you're
gonna do before you do it.
423
00:24:29,734 --> 00:24:34,671
So, how long do I let the lymph
node marinate in the red wine?
424
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,032
It should be
ready, now.
425
00:24:40,846 --> 00:24:43,576
Try increasing the
magnification on the camera.
426
00:24:43,648 --> 00:24:46,640
You know, I emailed a couple of
colleagues at the hospital about you.
427
00:24:46,751 --> 00:24:48,446
You're checking up
on me? Not House?
428
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:54,358
Yeah, well House is straightforward,
brilliant and an ass.
429
00:24:54,459 --> 00:24:56,825
Two out of three good
qualities. Clear majority.
430
00:24:56,928 --> 00:25:00,659
Whereas you, on the other
hand, have a perfect score.
431
00:25:00,765 --> 00:25:04,531
You are responsible,
nice, human.
432
00:25:05,003 --> 00:25:06,595
And yet, you're House's
best friend.
433
00:25:06,938 --> 00:25:08,098
Hold there.
434
00:25:08,273 --> 00:25:10,867
Makes you think he's
secretly nicer than he seems?
435
00:25:10,976 --> 00:25:14,537
Makes me think that you're secretly
a lot less nice than you seem.
436
00:25:14,646 --> 00:25:16,170
Do you always insult
your doctors?
437
00:25:16,281 --> 00:25:20,047
It's not an insult. Indiscriminate
niceness is overrated.
438
00:25:21,019 --> 00:25:23,044
No wonder he likes you.
439
00:25:25,991 --> 00:25:29,518
Based on this slide
you do not have cancer.
440
00:25:31,363 --> 00:25:32,796
Oh!
441
00:25:32,864 --> 00:25:33,888
Thank God.
442
00:25:33,999 --> 00:25:36,229
I do see some inflammation,
which could mean...
443
00:25:37,469 --> 00:25:38,868
Cate?
444
00:25:38,970 --> 00:25:39,994
You all right?
445
00:25:40,071 --> 00:25:42,005
My left side. It hurts.
446
00:25:43,708 --> 00:25:45,801
It's the same pain
that I had on the right.
447
00:25:45,877 --> 00:25:47,139
Your other kidney.
448
00:25:47,212 --> 00:25:50,340
No. I hope it's, it's
something, it's maybe...
449
00:25:52,551 --> 00:25:53,575
I'm screwed.
450
00:26:00,091 --> 00:26:03,788
The bad news is you're O for
two in the kidney department.
451
00:26:04,396 --> 00:26:07,263
Is there good news?
You're back at home.
452
00:26:08,266 --> 00:26:09,699
Of course.
There's cable.
453
00:26:10,268 --> 00:26:12,099
And freedom
to work pant-free.
454
00:26:12,170 --> 00:26:13,398
That is good news.
455
00:26:13,972 --> 00:26:17,305
Wilson found signs of
inflammation in your biopsy.
456
00:26:17,742 --> 00:26:20,404
That, plus the two failing kidneys,
points to autoimmune disease.
457
00:26:20,478 --> 00:26:24,141
Probably SLE or vasculitis.
Treatment for both is prednisone.
458
00:26:24,249 --> 00:26:25,648
Start with
a hundred milligrams.
459
00:26:25,717 --> 00:26:27,514
Autoimmune is just
your latest theory.
460
00:26:27,619 --> 00:26:30,247
Like cancer before that,
and a kidney stone before.
461
00:26:30,322 --> 00:26:33,519
Take the prednisone. You'll get
better. That will be your confirmation.
462
00:26:33,625 --> 00:26:35,855
You practice medicine
like it's a fire sale.
463
00:26:35,927 --> 00:26:38,293
You've wasted
antibiotics, x-rays...
464
00:26:38,530 --> 00:26:40,623
That was not a waste.
We've ruled out...
465
00:26:40,699 --> 00:26:42,496
We have a crew member here
who has asthma.
466
00:26:42,601 --> 00:26:46,628
If he has an episode after I've
used up the prednisone, he'll die.
467
00:26:46,705 --> 00:26:48,332
There's a good chance
he's going to die anyway.
468
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:49,998
Since there won't be
a doctor there to help him.
469
00:26:50,108 --> 00:26:53,373
Show me proof
that it's autoimmune,
470
00:26:54,279 --> 00:26:55,940
and then I'll take
the prednisone.
471
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,688
We should
send her outside.
472
00:27:03,788 --> 00:27:06,951
Right. Let's just tell her to head
north until she runs into a hospital.
473
00:27:07,025 --> 00:27:10,119
Autoimmune diseases are basically
inflammation running wild.
474
00:27:10,195 --> 00:27:13,892
Extreme cold has been used as treatment,
like putting ice on a sprained ankle.
475
00:27:13,999 --> 00:27:16,900
She starts to feel better
outside, we know it's autoimmune.
476
00:27:17,002 --> 00:27:18,492
Is that my wallet?
477
00:27:18,570 --> 00:27:19,867
You can have it back.
478
00:27:19,971 --> 00:27:21,233
I've already been
through it.
479
00:27:21,706 --> 00:27:23,435
I like your ice on the sprain metaphor.
480
00:27:23,508 --> 00:27:25,499
Makes it seem like we're not killing her.
481
00:27:25,577 --> 00:27:27,306
She'd only need to be outside five minutes.
482
00:27:27,379 --> 00:27:30,678
Without her mittens. Mom
told me that was a bad idea.
483
00:27:30,749 --> 00:27:34,310
Especially that winter. It was 70
below, and I had dual kidney failure.
484
00:27:34,386 --> 00:27:38,755
This is a good idea. It's perfect
for you. Experimental, risky.
485
00:27:38,857 --> 00:27:40,484
Wilson's right.
You care about...
486
00:27:40,558 --> 00:27:43,322
You didn't touch the cash,
but you took the receipts?
487
00:27:46,364 --> 00:27:51,097
A hundred and ninety dollar restaurant
tab. That's dessert, probably booze.
488
00:27:51,202 --> 00:27:52,260
It means you lingered.
489
00:27:52,370 --> 00:27:55,430
Means it's at least
a third date. Means...
490
00:27:55,540 --> 00:27:57,440
Where are you going?
To talk to the people I pay
491
00:27:57,542 --> 00:27:58,804
to come up
with medical ideas.
492
00:27:58,877 --> 00:28:00,868
There are no ideas.
493
00:28:00,945 --> 00:28:02,606
The test for
autoimmune is ANA.
494
00:28:02,714 --> 00:28:04,841
Unless penguins poop
immunoanalyzers...
495
00:28:04,916 --> 00:28:06,440
Before ANA testing,
496
00:28:06,551 --> 00:28:08,917
people had
autoimmune diseases.
497
00:28:09,020 --> 00:28:10,385
How did they know?
498
00:28:10,455 --> 00:28:12,355
C3.
Before that.
499
00:28:12,424 --> 00:28:15,916
LE Prep. But she doesn't have
any controlled pore glass beads.
500
00:28:16,027 --> 00:28:17,927
You don't need them.
501
00:28:22,967 --> 00:28:24,229
When you shake
the test tube,
502
00:28:24,302 --> 00:28:27,066
the paperclip will damage
some of your blood cells.
503
00:28:27,138 --> 00:28:28,469
If you have
an autoimmune disease,
504
00:28:28,573 --> 00:28:31,269
your immune system will gorge
itself on the damaged cells.
505
00:28:31,910 --> 00:28:34,470
They'll get big and fat so that
you can see them under a microscope.
506
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:36,469
How you doing?
507
00:28:37,415 --> 00:28:38,905
No change.
508
00:28:38,983 --> 00:28:42,749
So, how long should I give the cells
to fatten up before I check them?
509
00:28:42,821 --> 00:28:44,448
A couple hours.
510
00:28:44,556 --> 00:28:47,047
Or you could stop being a hypocrite
and take the prednisone now.
511
00:28:47,125 --> 00:28:49,719
Not bending to your will
makes me a hypocrite?
512
00:28:49,794 --> 00:28:53,890
If your psych patients demanded lab
results you'd never make a diagnosis.
513
00:28:53,965 --> 00:28:55,159
So, I'm wrong.
514
00:28:55,266 --> 00:28:58,429
You sleep like a baby. Your
life is unfolding as you dreamed.
515
00:28:58,503 --> 00:29:00,471
Everyone is miserable.
516
00:29:00,572 --> 00:29:02,563
You don't change that
because people don't change.
517
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:03,664
You want to believe that
518
00:29:03,775 --> 00:29:06,403
because then you're freed from
any responsibility for your misery.
519
00:29:06,478 --> 00:29:08,002
Oh, shut up.
520
00:29:08,947 --> 00:29:10,346
I get enough of this
from Wilson.
521
00:29:10,448 --> 00:29:11,847
And yet, you keep
hanging out with him.
522
00:29:13,952 --> 00:29:19,083
And, from what I hear, you have spent more
time with me than with any other patient.
523
00:29:22,994 --> 00:29:24,291
Sorry about that.
524
00:29:25,597 --> 00:29:27,030
Call me when you get
the results.
525
00:29:33,972 --> 00:29:35,269
How's your patient?
526
00:29:35,940 --> 00:29:37,669
She has an
autoimmune disease.
527
00:29:37,776 --> 00:29:39,300
Tell the psych department
she's in denial.
528
00:29:42,313 --> 00:29:44,042
I had to fire Cameron.
529
00:29:44,115 --> 00:29:46,174
What? What happened?
530
00:29:46,284 --> 00:29:49,720
A sixty-five-year-old man came
into the ER with a hip fracture.
531
00:29:49,821 --> 00:29:51,789
Cameron gave him
Demerol.
532
00:29:51,856 --> 00:29:53,346
The guy was
on an MAOl.
533
00:29:53,458 --> 00:29:55,016
Put him into
a hypertensive crisis.
534
00:29:55,093 --> 00:29:56,151
Is he going to live?
535
00:29:56,227 --> 00:29:57,626
Taub caught the error
in time.
536
00:29:58,530 --> 00:30:00,054
If she'd just admitted
the mistake,
537
00:30:00,165 --> 00:30:02,326
maybe I could have just
suspended her, but...
538
00:30:03,001 --> 00:30:05,629
She's packing up.
If you want to say goodbye.
539
00:30:05,703 --> 00:30:07,728
We should be hearing from the
South Pole in a few minutes.
540
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:09,664
That's it?
541
00:30:10,608 --> 00:30:12,041
There's nothing
to be done.
542
00:30:12,143 --> 00:30:14,873
She screwed up. She's got
no one to blame but herself.
543
00:30:18,349 --> 00:30:19,839
I've got to go
talk to Cameron.
544
00:30:19,918 --> 00:30:21,476
Cuddy wouldn't can her
for one screw-up.
545
00:30:21,553 --> 00:30:23,578
And if she did,
she wouldn't come to me.
546
00:30:23,688 --> 00:30:25,883
And if she did, she wouldn't
open with, "How's your patient?"
547
00:30:25,957 --> 00:30:27,754
And if she did...
Why would she lie?
548
00:30:27,826 --> 00:30:29,817
Timeless question.
549
00:30:29,894 --> 00:30:32,692
In this case, she conspired
with your co-workers to teach me
550
00:30:32,764 --> 00:30:35,062
that some things are
more important than cable.
551
00:30:35,166 --> 00:30:37,066
I'm going to have to teach
them that they're wrong.
552
00:30:37,168 --> 00:30:40,228
Come on. South Pole really should be calling.
553
00:30:43,441 --> 00:30:47,036
LE Prep test was negative.
It's not autoimmune.
554
00:30:47,412 --> 00:30:51,212
You're basing that on a test done with
a paper clip. Just take the prednisone.
555
00:30:51,716 --> 00:30:55,117
Either find another diagnosis,
or find another test.
556
00:30:55,186 --> 00:30:56,915
There is
one way.
557
00:30:57,422 --> 00:31:02,121
You can take this experimental
drug called prednisone.
558
00:31:02,961 --> 00:31:04,223
If your kidneys
start working...
559
00:31:04,295 --> 00:31:05,887
There is
another test.
560
00:31:07,899 --> 00:31:10,629
I think Foreman may have
just broken up, there.
561
00:31:10,735 --> 00:31:13,636
What he actually said was,
"There is no other test. "
562
00:31:13,738 --> 00:31:15,399
If you have
an autoimmune disease,
563
00:31:15,473 --> 00:31:17,964
exposure to the cold should
decrease your kidney pain.
564
00:31:18,076 --> 00:31:20,806
If I go outside,
we'll have our answer?
565
00:31:21,613 --> 00:31:22,875
And you knew about this?
566
00:31:22,947 --> 00:31:25,507
I rejected it because
if you're frozen solid,
567
00:31:25,583 --> 00:31:27,676
it's hard to get the needles
into your arms.
568
00:31:27,752 --> 00:31:29,185
How long do I need
to stay out?
569
00:31:29,254 --> 00:31:30,312
At least five minutes.
570
00:31:30,421 --> 00:31:32,946
Eight minutes outside
would kill a healthy person.
571
00:31:33,057 --> 00:31:34,922
And healthy people
don't suck on oxygen masks.
572
00:31:34,993 --> 00:31:36,585
Healthy people can pee.
573
00:31:36,661 --> 00:31:38,629
I'll go get Sean,
have him come with me.
574
00:31:38,730 --> 00:31:40,960
Just take the prednisone.
575
00:31:41,065 --> 00:31:42,259
Once I come inside,
576
00:31:43,301 --> 00:31:45,132
if it's autoimmune.
577
00:31:49,107 --> 00:31:50,904
Are you all right?
578
00:31:52,176 --> 00:31:54,371
Oh, I'm sure
she's just fine.
579
00:31:55,146 --> 00:31:56,477
Cate?
580
00:31:58,283 --> 00:32:00,808
Do you know if there's anyone
down there who has a cell phone?
581
00:32:16,734 --> 00:32:19,259
It took the station mechanic
20 minutes to respond.
582
00:32:20,038 --> 00:32:21,266
She'd already slipped
into a coma.
583
00:32:21,372 --> 00:32:23,397
Started her on prednisone,
but no improvement.
584
00:32:24,509 --> 00:32:26,170
Means it's not
autoimmune.
585
00:32:27,145 --> 00:32:28,874
Good thing
she's in a coma.
586
00:32:28,947 --> 00:32:30,278
Or we'd have
to listen to her gloat.
587
00:32:30,348 --> 00:32:31,610
And where are we going?
588
00:32:31,716 --> 00:32:33,581
To find the useful
members of my team.
589
00:32:33,651 --> 00:32:34,879
You're letting them
off the hook?
590
00:32:34,953 --> 00:32:38,787
You happy? Because of you, I'm not gonna
be able to watch Law & Order in Korean.
591
00:32:38,890 --> 00:32:39,914
Why am I here?
592
00:32:40,024 --> 00:32:42,686
Because I want to ask you
about your girlfriend.
593
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,388
I must know who she is, or
you'd have told me her name.
594
00:32:45,463 --> 00:32:48,694
She doesn't have a name. It's
some sort of birth defect.
595
00:32:48,766 --> 00:32:50,859
There's only about
12 people we both know.
596
00:32:50,935 --> 00:32:52,664
And I can't remember
five of their names,
597
00:32:52,737 --> 00:32:55,865
so we're down to Cuddy, your ex-wives.
598
00:32:55,940 --> 00:32:57,407
Your mama.
599
00:32:58,543 --> 00:33:00,773
You need to run
a kidney function test.
600
00:33:00,878 --> 00:33:04,109
Yes. If only she wasn't in a coma,
we could get her to run a test
601
00:33:04,215 --> 00:33:05,580
to find out why
she's in a coma.
602
00:33:05,650 --> 00:33:08,141
The results would likely be paradoxical.
603
00:33:08,252 --> 00:33:11,153
It can't be Cuddy, because
you're straight. It can't be...
604
00:33:11,255 --> 00:33:13,246
We could talk the mechanic
through the test.
605
00:33:13,324 --> 00:33:14,985
Too complicated.
606
00:33:18,296 --> 00:33:19,786
Unless he's thirsty.
607
00:33:22,734 --> 00:33:23,894
Drink her urine?
608
00:33:23,968 --> 00:33:25,765
If it has a strong,
concentrated taste,
609
00:33:25,870 --> 00:33:27,565
it means the problems
are in her kidneys.
610
00:33:27,638 --> 00:33:29,538
Watery taste means
it's her brain.
611
00:33:31,309 --> 00:33:32,435
And then
you can fix it?
612
00:33:32,710 --> 00:33:34,541
Let's say, yeah.
613
00:33:36,114 --> 00:33:37,376
How do I get
the urine out of her?
614
00:33:37,448 --> 00:33:38,745
Take a straight catheter
and insert it...
615
00:33:38,816 --> 00:33:40,283
Those are your
only questions?
616
00:33:41,386 --> 00:33:43,251
Not, "Is it safe?"
617
00:33:43,721 --> 00:33:45,746
Or, "Is there
another way?"
618
00:33:45,823 --> 00:33:48,121
Or, "Are you
out of your minds?"
619
00:33:48,626 --> 00:33:49,786
You wouldn't
ask me if...
620
00:33:50,128 --> 00:33:51,493
Wait a second.
621
00:33:52,430 --> 00:33:53,795
You're in love
with her.
622
00:33:54,632 --> 00:33:57,965
That explains why you're so eager
to get her naked, then have a drink.
623
00:33:58,069 --> 00:34:00,333
Because most guys like to
go the other way around.
624
00:34:00,438 --> 00:34:01,871
Why do you care
how I feel about her?
625
00:34:03,641 --> 00:34:07,805
Because now I know that I can get
you to do anything to save her.
626
00:34:10,415 --> 00:34:11,939
Tell him how
to tap the keg.
627
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,445
You got Cameron
fired.
628
00:34:18,523 --> 00:34:20,150
Cuddy wasn't supposed
to find out.
629
00:34:20,258 --> 00:34:21,782
No kidding!
630
00:34:21,859 --> 00:34:25,625
Get me cable. How tough can that
be? You cost a woman her job.
631
00:34:26,330 --> 00:34:29,265
There's only one thing you can
say to keep me from firing you.
632
00:34:29,333 --> 00:34:30,698
Cameron wasn't fired. We...
633
00:34:30,768 --> 00:34:32,167
Wrong.
634
00:34:33,704 --> 00:34:35,501
You know?
We're still fired?
635
00:34:35,606 --> 00:34:38,370
That should be a hint as to
what you're supposed to say.
636
00:34:38,476 --> 00:34:40,341
We're sorry.
Wrong.
637
00:34:40,445 --> 00:34:41,707
I love you.
638
00:34:42,513 --> 00:34:43,571
Wrong.
639
00:34:44,015 --> 00:34:46,848
This is a game? First, we have
to screw with our co-worker,
640
00:34:46,951 --> 00:34:49,181
now we have to try to figure
out what you want us to say?
641
00:34:49,287 --> 00:34:50,845
This is insane.
I'm not playing.
642
00:34:51,856 --> 00:34:53,118
Right.
643
00:34:54,325 --> 00:34:55,952
You should have said this
two days ago.
644
00:34:57,395 --> 00:34:59,124
Do not
play games with me.
645
00:34:59,197 --> 00:35:02,030
Number one, you are going to
lose. You're just not ready.
646
00:35:02,133 --> 00:35:05,625
Number two, the game was to
force you to stop playing games.
647
00:35:05,703 --> 00:35:08,194
I need you to stand up
to me. Challenge me.
648
00:35:08,306 --> 00:35:10,968
I need you to stop worrying
about getting fired.
649
00:35:11,042 --> 00:35:13,169
And go pay for my cable.
650
00:35:13,878 --> 00:35:14,970
No!
651
00:35:15,813 --> 00:35:17,474
I didn't mean on this.
652
00:35:18,516 --> 00:35:20,006
Seriously.
I need cable.
653
00:35:29,861 --> 00:35:31,385
Milk, milk,
lemonade.
654
00:35:34,765 --> 00:35:36,858
It tastes
kind of watery.
655
00:35:37,768 --> 00:35:39,326
That's bad news.
656
00:35:39,403 --> 00:35:41,428
Either increased
intracranial pressure
657
00:35:41,506 --> 00:35:43,838
or something's wrong
with her hypothalamus.
658
00:35:43,908 --> 00:35:45,500
How do you figure out
which one it is?
659
00:35:45,576 --> 00:35:47,510
We don't do anything.
660
00:35:49,447 --> 00:35:51,438
You're gonna drill
a hole in her skull.
661
00:35:52,884 --> 00:35:57,218
If she regains consciousness, it's
increased intracranial pressure.
662
00:35:58,856 --> 00:35:59,880
And if it's
the other thing?
663
00:36:00,224 --> 00:36:01,521
She'll die.
664
00:36:01,592 --> 00:36:03,526
But if it's the hypothalamus,
she's dead, anyway.
665
00:36:05,129 --> 00:36:08,724
If the problem is the pressure
in her brain, and I fix it,
666
00:36:08,799 --> 00:36:09,925
is she going
to be all better?
667
00:36:10,368 --> 00:36:13,565
No, but it'll give us more
time to figure out what's wrong.
668
00:36:14,739 --> 00:36:16,730
I have to get someone else.
I can't do this.
669
00:36:19,243 --> 00:36:20,733
You love her.
670
00:36:21,445 --> 00:36:23,777
You'd do anything
to save her.
671
00:36:23,881 --> 00:36:25,212
Not this.
672
00:36:25,283 --> 00:36:27,251
I can't do this.
673
00:36:27,318 --> 00:36:29,252
If she dies because of
something that I did, then I...
674
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:30,981
Listen. Listen.
675
00:36:31,088 --> 00:36:34,057
I am not going to let you hurt her. Okay?
676
00:36:34,792 --> 00:36:38,159
Now, please. This is
her only chance.
677
00:36:44,769 --> 00:36:45,997
Okay.
678
00:36:53,945 --> 00:36:55,572
That was easy.
679
00:36:58,549 --> 00:37:01,211
Okay. Her head
is stabilized,
680
00:37:02,053 --> 00:37:04,317
and the drill bit
is sterile.
681
00:37:04,422 --> 00:37:07,550
Place the drill bit against the
upper left part of her forehead,
682
00:37:07,625 --> 00:37:08,956
about an inch
above the temple.
683
00:37:26,844 --> 00:37:28,175
It's not going
anywhere.
684
00:37:28,246 --> 00:37:29,975
Bone's harder than wood.
Lean into it.
685
00:37:30,481 --> 00:37:32,142
The skull is only
a quarter inch thick.
686
00:37:32,250 --> 00:37:34,582
Once you're midway through,
drill in shorter bursts.
687
00:37:34,986 --> 00:37:37,147
If you come out the other
side, you've gone too far.
688
00:37:41,092 --> 00:37:42,286
Okay. Now, what?
Now, what?
689
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:43,418
Let the fluid drain.
690
00:37:57,441 --> 00:37:58,635
She's waking up.
She's waking up.
691
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:09,879
Sean?
692
00:38:11,555 --> 00:38:13,318
What's going on?
693
00:38:16,227 --> 00:38:18,821
South Pole doc
is out of her coma,
694
00:38:19,196 --> 00:38:20,925
and now we have
a new symptom.
695
00:38:21,299 --> 00:38:23,790
Increased intracranial
pressure.
696
00:38:24,368 --> 00:38:25,960
Why are we
out here?
697
00:38:26,037 --> 00:38:27,527
That's the
patient room.
698
00:38:28,105 --> 00:38:31,597
ICP plus kidney problems
plus lung collapse equals...
699
00:38:31,676 --> 00:38:33,871
The most likely suspect
is a tumor throwing off clots.
700
00:38:33,978 --> 00:38:35,343
We ruled out cancer.
701
00:38:35,413 --> 00:38:36,641
But not clots.
702
00:38:37,114 --> 00:38:38,479
What causes
blood clots?
703
00:38:38,549 --> 00:38:39,777
Bacterial endocarditis.
704
00:38:39,850 --> 00:38:40,942
Not without a fever.
705
00:38:41,018 --> 00:38:43,009
Deep vein thrombosis
plus an existing PFO.
706
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,214
PFO would have been discovered on
her pre-South Pole physical exam.
707
00:38:46,324 --> 00:38:47,655
What if the clots
aren't clots?
708
00:38:48,826 --> 00:38:52,125
Atherosclerosis. Fatty plaque
builds up on the arterial walls.
709
00:38:52,196 --> 00:38:55,290
Pieces break off, block blood
flow. Explains everything.
710
00:38:55,366 --> 00:38:59,359
She has zero risk factors.
Forget fat. Think clots.
711
00:38:59,470 --> 00:39:00,528
No.
712
00:39:02,506 --> 00:39:03,939
You're standing up
to me?
713
00:39:04,008 --> 00:39:05,032
Maybe.
714
00:39:05,142 --> 00:39:07,667
Just to clarify, you should
do that when you're right.
715
00:39:07,745 --> 00:39:09,474
Sorry for the confusion.
716
00:39:09,547 --> 00:39:11,344
How could a clot... Could
be a different kind of fat.
717
00:39:11,415 --> 00:39:12,905
Fat emboli.
718
00:39:13,818 --> 00:39:17,413
It's a perfect fit. Except
it's completely impossible.
719
00:39:18,422 --> 00:39:20,982
Fat emboli requires
an un-repaired bone breakage.
720
00:39:21,058 --> 00:39:23,424
Between the x-ray and the
exam, I've seen her entire...
721
00:39:32,169 --> 00:39:33,693
See, that's what
I'm talking about.
722
00:39:36,741 --> 00:39:38,436
Take off her socks.
723
00:39:39,710 --> 00:39:41,109
I can...
I can do it.
724
00:39:41,178 --> 00:39:42,406
No. I got it.
725
00:39:53,124 --> 00:39:54,318
Your toe is broken.
726
00:39:55,926 --> 00:39:57,518
Oh, my God.
727
00:39:58,028 --> 00:40:00,588
Bits of bone marrow have been
leaking into your bloodstream.
728
00:40:00,698 --> 00:40:04,964
Those fat emboli have caused blockages
in your kidney, lungs, and brain.
729
00:40:05,936 --> 00:40:07,028
It doesn't even hurt.
730
00:40:07,104 --> 00:40:08,799
Cold numbs everything.
731
00:40:08,906 --> 00:40:11,568
Does a particularly great job
on the extremities.
732
00:40:11,642 --> 00:40:15,134
You'll need to close the break
to stop the marrow from leaking.
733
00:40:15,246 --> 00:40:16,577
This one
you will feel.
734
00:40:17,615 --> 00:40:19,242
Will you do it?
735
00:40:20,117 --> 00:40:24,247
He drilled a hole in your skull after
drinking your pee. I think he's up for this.
736
00:40:24,321 --> 00:40:25,948
Grab the tip of her toe
with your right hand.
737
00:40:26,056 --> 00:40:27,887
Hold the break
with the other.
738
00:40:27,958 --> 00:40:29,550
On the count of three,
pull hard.
739
00:40:31,262 --> 00:40:32,786
One, two,
740
00:40:33,297 --> 00:40:34,559
three.
741
00:40:43,941 --> 00:40:46,341
Splint your toe.
You'll be fine.
742
00:40:51,482 --> 00:40:53,245
Thank you, House.
743
00:40:54,518 --> 00:40:57,851
Don't thank me. He's the
one who saved your life.
744
00:41:25,449 --> 00:41:26,973
He likes her.
745
00:41:35,392 --> 00:41:39,192
A bottle of the Bordeaux
and some sparkling water.
746
00:41:44,568 --> 00:41:48,368
Well, you didn't pick her up, which
means she's coming from work, too,
747
00:41:48,472 --> 00:41:50,406
which means you're
comfortable enough to meet her.
748
00:41:50,508 --> 00:41:52,601
Damn. I thought I lost
you when I walked backwards
749
00:41:52,676 --> 00:41:54,166
through my own
footprints in the snow.
750
00:41:54,245 --> 00:41:57,305
I think I've got it narrowed
down to three possibilities.
751
00:41:57,381 --> 00:41:59,372
Better leave. If you see
her, it'll be cheating.
752
00:41:59,483 --> 00:42:00,711
It's not one
of your ex-wives.
753
00:42:00,784 --> 00:42:01,842
Because they hate me.
754
00:42:01,919 --> 00:42:05,184
They don't. They should, but
they don't. I called them.
755
00:42:05,256 --> 00:42:07,724
It's someone new,
but someone I know.
756
00:42:07,825 --> 00:42:09,816
Did you ever consider
being happy for me?
757
00:42:09,894 --> 00:42:11,225
Briefly.
758
00:42:11,295 --> 00:42:13,286
You ordering the wine
before she got here...
759
00:42:14,832 --> 00:42:17,767
Girls are good, House,
and you know it.
760
00:42:17,868 --> 00:42:20,564
You solved your case because
you cared about that girl.
761
00:42:20,671 --> 00:42:24,004
You're demonstrating the
illusion of manly confidence,
762
00:42:24,074 --> 00:42:26,042
which means you haven't
closed the deal, yet.
763
00:42:26,110 --> 00:42:28,237
I closed the deal.
I just like her.
764
00:42:28,312 --> 00:42:29,438
Still?
765
00:42:29,547 --> 00:42:32,072
You knew your patient
hated having cold feet,
766
00:42:32,182 --> 00:42:35,618
because you did a physical
exam, because you liked her.
767
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:39,951
Your theory is I cared, therefore
I let her keep her socks on.
768
00:42:40,057 --> 00:42:42,685
If that's what love is, then I don't
wanna have anything to do with it.
769
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,593
It starts with warm feet,
but leads to other things.
770
00:42:45,696 --> 00:42:47,425
Your mom and I will
explain when you're older.
771
00:42:47,531 --> 00:42:50,625
If I'd made her take them off like
I should have, I'd have seen the toe
772
00:42:50,734 --> 00:42:52,031
and solved the case
days ago.
773
00:42:52,102 --> 00:42:53,501
But you don't
care about her.
774
00:42:53,571 --> 00:42:57,667
Of course not. House
doesn't care about anyone.
775
00:43:00,244 --> 00:43:01,677
Hi.
776
00:43:01,745 --> 00:43:02,939
Sorry I'm late.
777
00:43:05,082 --> 00:43:06,845
Cutthroat Bitch?
778
00:43:07,618 --> 00:43:09,552
I call her Amber.
779
00:43:09,954 --> 00:43:11,683
Was she
on your list?
