House Season1 E07 -- Line

1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:02,734
[Man Panting]
2
00:00:02,802 --> 00:00:05,498
So now the plan is
either find ourselves
a new counselor,
3
00:00:05,572 --> 00:00:08,166
stick it out with the old one,
but go more often,
4
00:00:08,241 --> 00:00:11,074
or resign ourselves to the fact
that she's never gonna be happy...
5
00:00:11,144 --> 00:00:16,013
no matter what I do, so let's take
the money we're wasting and put it
towards a membership at Lakeview.
6
00:00:16,082 --> 00:00:19,210
[Chuckles] I'm guessing the last
option has yet to be formally presented.
Yeah.
7
00:00:19,285 --> 00:00:22,254
Geez. What's with you?
You usually run half speed
to stay with me.
8
00:00:22,322 --> 00:00:26,122
Didn't get a lot of sleep last night.
[Panting]
[Panting]
9
00:00:27,193 --> 00:00:30,560
How are things with Elyse?
Great.
10
00:00:30,630 --> 00:00:32,894
Great?
Yeah.
11
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,969
One-syllable answers.
You're either out of breath,
or you're lying to me.
12
00:00:37,037 --> 00:00:41,474
Yeah. We have our moments,
but they usually work out.
13
00:00:41,541 --> 00:00:44,772
Man, you got some water?
Yeah.
14
00:00:44,844 --> 00:00:46,869
So how do you work things out?
15
00:00:48,081 --> 00:00:50,447
I don't know.
We talk, someone apologizes.
16
00:00:50,517 --> 00:00:52,542
Man, I shouldn't have
drank last night.
17
00:00:52,619 --> 00:00:56,248
- Hey, you mean you apologize.
- Yeah, I guess.
18
00:00:56,322 --> 00:00:59,553
- How often do you guys have sex?
- Enough.
19
00:00:59,626 --> 00:01:01,685
You do it this morning?
20
00:01:01,761 --> 00:01:03,786
You did.
You did it this morning.
[Chuckles]
21
00:01:03,863 --> 00:01:07,492
Maybe that's why
you can't stand up, huh? Come on.
[Panting]
22
00:01:08,568 --> 00:01:10,559
Elyse.
23
00:01:13,673 --> 00:01:15,607
Great.
24
00:01:15,675 --> 00:01:17,802
Honey, I'm dehydrated.
25
00:01:17,877 --> 00:01:20,471
Do we have anything
with electrolytes?
26
00:01:22,916 --> 00:01:25,009
Sleeping Beauty, wake up.
27
00:01:25,085 --> 00:01:28,577
[Sighs]
This is an emergency.
28
00:01:28,655 --> 00:01:30,623
The fridge is empty.
[Murmurs]
29
00:01:30,690 --> 00:01:33,250
Come on.
It's almost 4:00.
[Murmuring]
30
00:01:35,862 --> 00:01:38,228
Elyse. Sweetie.
31
00:01:39,766 --> 00:01:43,327
CallJacques.
Tell him I'm not feeling well.
32
00:01:44,404 --> 00:01:47,635
It's Saturday.
You haven't been to work
in three days. Remember?
33
00:01:48,708 --> 00:01:50,835
Just let me sleep.
34
00:01:50,910 --> 00:01:54,004
Come on.
You haven't been out of bed
since Wednesday.
35
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,106
- Leave me alone.
- Come on. What's up?
36
00:01:57,183 --> 00:01:59,651
No. Leave me alone.
37
00:01:59,719 --> 00:02:02,449
Honey.
I said leave me alone!
38
00:02:09,896 --> 00:02:13,332
Oh. I think there's
something wrong with me.
39
00:02:47,534 --> 00:02:50,435
She's been averaging 18 hours of sleep
a day since her admission.
40
00:02:50,503 --> 00:02:53,700
Clinical depression.
Incredibly contagious.
41
00:02:53,773 --> 00:02:57,140
Every time I'm around
one of them, I get blue.
It's not clinical depression.
42
00:02:57,210 --> 00:03:00,338
Great.
Got it all figured out.
You don't need me.
43
00:03:02,215 --> 00:03:05,707
Three E.R. Doctors, two neurologists
and a radiologist have all
figured out what it's not.
44
00:03:05,785 --> 00:03:08,618
We need to figure out what it is.
If any of the above-mentioned
doctors...
45
00:03:08,688 --> 00:03:11,350
were interested in my opinion,
they would have asked for it.
46
00:03:11,424 --> 00:03:14,018
None of them are willing
to subject themselves to you.
47
00:03:14,093 --> 00:03:16,084
No pain, no gain.
[Elevator Bell Dings]
48
00:03:16,162 --> 00:03:19,029
The blood work shows
no signs of inflammation,
49
00:03:19,098 --> 00:03:21,794
and no one can figure out
what's actually the cause-
Ah.
50
00:03:21,868 --> 00:03:26,100
What?
Husband described her as being
unusually irritable recently.
51
00:03:26,172 --> 00:03:30,836
And?
I didn't realize it was possible for
a woman to be unusually irritable.
52
00:03:30,910 --> 00:03:32,901
[Elevator Bell Dings]
53
00:03:34,380 --> 00:03:37,611
Nice try, but you're a misanthrope,
not a misogynist.
54
00:03:37,684 --> 00:03:40,585
What's the first thing
you ask a doctor
who's referring a patient?
55
00:03:40,653 --> 00:03:43,247
Are you questioning my ability
to take a history?
56
00:03:44,991 --> 00:03:47,118
What's the primary-
Not "what." "Why?"
57
00:03:47,193 --> 00:03:50,492
Diseases don't
have motives.
No, but doctors do.
58
00:03:50,563 --> 00:03:52,690
Why this patient?
What interests you?
59
00:03:54,067 --> 00:03:56,729
Give me the chart.
Why?
60
00:03:58,004 --> 00:04:00,871
Lfind your interest interesting.
61
00:04:03,443 --> 00:04:06,537
[House]
She's irritable and sleeping
18 hours a day.
62
00:04:06,613 --> 00:04:08,547
What's interesting about that?
63
00:04:08,615 --> 00:04:11,675
Hypersomnia's usually accompanied
by irritability in depressed patients.
64
00:04:11,751 --> 00:04:14,049
True, but not relevant.
She's not depressed.
65
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,146
Hello. She's sleeping
18 hours a day.
Fever.
66
00:04:17,223 --> 00:04:19,214
Clinical depression
does not cause fever.
67
00:04:19,292 --> 00:04:21,726
- She could be sick and depressed.
- She's sick.
68
00:04:21,794 --> 00:04:23,728
Oh, damn it.
Why didn't I think of that?
69
00:04:23,796 --> 00:04:26,697
- Yeah, that's what I meant.
- Elevated sed rate indicates inflammation.
70
00:04:26,766 --> 00:04:29,326
Hypersomnia and personality changes
point toward the brain.
71
00:04:29,402 --> 00:04:31,063
Not the spleen?
72
00:04:31,137 --> 00:04:33,230
Thank goodness we hired
a neurologist.
73
00:04:33,306 --> 00:04:35,331
Brain symptoms. Hmm.
Could this be a brain problem?
74
00:04:35,408 --> 00:04:37,899
No other systemic signs of inflammation.
Probably not vasculitis.
75
00:04:37,977 --> 00:04:40,673
What about parasites?
Malaria, Chagas.
76
00:04:40,747 --> 00:04:43,875
But the patient's never been outside of
the United States- especially the tropics.
77
00:04:43,950 --> 00:04:46,976
- You mean she claims
she's never been outside the U.S.
- Very good.
78
00:04:47,053 --> 00:04:49,749
Doesn't matter.
Blood and C.S.F. Smears
show no sign of parasites.
79
00:04:49,822 --> 00:04:53,417
- Has to be a tumor then.
- A tumor sitting directly
on top of the brain stem...
80
00:04:53,493 --> 00:04:56,428
that three E.R. Doctors,
two neurologists
and a radiologist missed?
81
00:04:56,496 --> 00:04:59,329
Partridge in a pear tree
missed it too.
82
00:04:59,399 --> 00:05:03,529
Redo the blood work, and get a new M.R.I.
With two-millimeter cuts
through the mesodiencephalic.
83
00:05:03,603 --> 00:05:05,537
And check for evil stepmothers.
84
00:05:05,605 --> 00:05:07,539
This much sleep
usually indicates poison apples.
85
00:05:08,775 --> 00:05:11,938
Anything else besides
the shortness ofbreath?
86
00:05:12,011 --> 00:05:14,878
Not really.
It's actually just kind of a tightness.
87
00:05:14,947 --> 00:05:16,915
You smoke?
No, never.
88
00:05:16,983 --> 00:05:19,247
- Exercise?
- Eight hours a day.
89
00:05:20,687 --> 00:05:23,121
- I teach preschool.
- Sounds fun.
90
00:05:25,558 --> 00:05:27,719
Any history of heart disease
in your family?
91
00:05:27,794 --> 00:05:30,228
Not that I know of.
Take a deep breath.
92
00:05:32,832 --> 00:05:36,268
Been under
a lot of stress lately?
No more than usual.
93
00:05:36,336 --> 00:05:39,203
You're probably just a little anemic.
94
00:05:39,272 --> 00:05:41,263
I'm gonna do an E.K.G.
Just to make sure.
95
00:05:41,341 --> 00:05:44,799
Do I need to take this off?
Uh, no. You can just
pull that down in front.
96
00:05:50,350 --> 00:05:53,251
Good Lord.
97
00:05:53,319 --> 00:05:57,119
- Are those real?
- Do they look real?
98
00:05:57,190 --> 00:05:59,158
They look pretty damn good.
99
00:05:59,225 --> 00:06:01,216
They were a present
for my husband's 40th.
100
00:06:01,294 --> 00:06:03,387
Lfigured he'd enjoy them
more than a sweater.
101
00:06:04,530 --> 00:06:06,691
That's so sweet.
102
00:06:06,766 --> 00:06:10,668
But I'm afraid the cause of your problem
could be staring us right in the face.
103
00:06:10,737 --> 00:06:12,967
Actually, I guess
I'm the one doing the staring.
104
00:06:13,039 --> 00:06:16,406
Of course, I can't be sure.
I'd like to consult a colleague.
105
00:06:16,476 --> 00:06:19,172
He's actually somewhat
of an expert in these matters.
106
00:06:21,948 --> 00:06:23,973
Can I get a page on Dr. Wilson?
107
00:06:26,386 --> 00:06:28,479
A tumor?
We don't know.
108
00:06:28,554 --> 00:06:31,318
- We're checking just to be safe.
- Y'all already checked for that.
109
00:06:31,391 --> 00:06:36,624
The previous M.R.I. Had a broader view.
Some tumors are almost impossible to see
unless you know exactly where to look.
110
00:06:36,696 --> 00:06:39,494
- That means it would be small, right?
- Yeah.
111
00:06:39,565 --> 00:06:42,033
Then you'd be able
to operate, take it out?
112
00:06:42,101 --> 00:06:45,036
If it's a tumor, there are
a variety of treatment options,
113
00:06:45,104 --> 00:06:47,595
but there are variables
other than just size.
114
00:06:49,909 --> 00:06:52,207
Don't worry.
115
00:06:52,278 --> 00:06:54,212
Too late.
[Chuckles Nervously]
116
00:06:58,885 --> 00:07:01,149
Try to remain as still as possible.
117
00:07:01,220 --> 00:07:05,782
The less distortion there is,
the more detail we'll be able to see.
Okay.
118
00:07:15,368 --> 00:07:18,735
[Man On P.A.]
X-ray tech, report to Radiology Room 3.
119
00:07:20,006 --> 00:07:23,032
Well. That's what
breasts look like.
120
00:07:23,109 --> 00:07:25,703
Is a lie a lie
if everybody knows it's a lie?
121
00:07:25,778 --> 00:07:29,612
Well, if a tree pretends
to fall in a forest-
House, come on. They're breasts.
122
00:07:29,682 --> 00:07:32,810
They're a birthday present,
not a philosophical treatise.
Lie number one.
123
00:07:32,885 --> 00:07:35,820
She did not do that for her husband.
She did that for herself.
124
00:07:35,888 --> 00:07:38,186
She thinks if she looks different,
she'll be different.
125
00:07:38,257 --> 00:07:42,284
No. She thinks if she looks different,
she'll be more attractive,
which I have to say-
126
00:07:42,361 --> 00:07:46,730
Not to her husband.
Cosmetic surgery is so everyone else
will look at us differently.
127
00:07:46,799 --> 00:07:48,824
The same reason
you're wearing that tie.
128
00:07:48,901 --> 00:07:51,495
Well, exactly.
That was gonna be my next point.
129
00:07:51,571 --> 00:07:53,505
Last three months,
same five ties.
130
00:07:53,573 --> 00:07:55,541
Thursday should be
that paisley thing.
131
00:07:55,608 --> 00:07:58,270
It's a gift from my wife.
No, it's not.
132
00:07:58,344 --> 00:08:00,778
Julie hates green.
You bought that yourself.
133
00:08:00,847 --> 00:08:04,044
You want to look pretty at work.
134
00:08:04,116 --> 00:08:05,913
[Singsong]
Wilson's got a girlfriend.
135
00:08:05,985 --> 00:08:07,509
D- Stop.
136
00:08:07,587 --> 00:08:09,748
Stop. I don't.
137
00:08:09,822 --> 00:08:13,280
It takes two department heads
to treat shortness of breath?
138
00:08:13,359 --> 00:08:17,386
What, do the complications
increase exponentially with cup size?
139
00:08:17,463 --> 00:08:21,263
I want an E.K.G. And blood tests,
including tox screen on Mrs. -
140
00:08:22,468 --> 00:08:26,268
- Exam Room One.
- You're ordering tests
to cover your lechery.
141
00:08:26,339 --> 00:08:29,069
- Interesting.
- Very tricky case.
142
00:08:31,244 --> 00:08:33,974
You love everybody.
That's your pathology.
143
00:08:36,315 --> 00:08:39,512
There were no lesions
and no mass effect that we could see.
144
00:08:41,087 --> 00:08:43,487
What does that mean?
145
00:08:43,556 --> 00:08:47,219
It means we're still not sure
what's causing
the neurological problems.
146
00:08:47,293 --> 00:08:49,727
I know some things are hard to cure,
147
00:08:49,795 --> 00:08:53,731
but what I just don't get
is why it's taking so long
to figure out what's wrong with her.
148
00:08:53,799 --> 00:08:56,768
- I know you're scared.
I would be too.
- I don't feel good.
149
00:08:57,537 --> 00:08:59,732
You feeling nauseous?
150
00:08:59,805 --> 00:09:02,273
Honey, are you all right?
151
00:09:04,377 --> 00:09:06,937
[Cameron]
She's seizing.!
152
00:09:07,013 --> 00:09:08,947
Get her on her side.
153
00:09:09,015 --> 00:09:11,142
- I need some Ativan!
- [Nurse]
I'll get it.
154
00:09:11,717 --> 00:09:14,914
- What's happened?
- She's having a seizure.
155
00:09:14,987 --> 00:09:17,785
- [Gagging]
- She's aspirating. Suction.
156
00:09:22,428 --> 00:09:25,022
[Gagging]
157
00:09:25,097 --> 00:09:27,531
[Cameron]
Come on, Elyse.
[Gagging Continues]
158
00:09:44,717 --> 00:09:46,708
[Wilson]
The M.R.I. Reveals nothing.
159
00:09:46,786 --> 00:09:49,254
- [Foreman]
That we were able to detect.
- It's not a tumor.
160
00:09:49,322 --> 00:09:53,088
A small glioma
could hide from contrast.
We could do a PETscan.
161
00:09:53,159 --> 00:09:56,856
Yes. That's how a responsible doctor
would waste his time in this situation.
162
00:09:56,929 --> 00:09:59,591
Suddenly tests and radiologists
are incapable of error?
163
00:09:59,665 --> 00:10:05,262
A glioma not presenting
on a contrast M.R.I. Would have to be
smaller than a grain of sand,
164
00:10:05,338 --> 00:10:07,499
which does not
a gravely ill person make.
165
00:10:07,573 --> 00:10:11,441
- It could be just postictal disorientation.
- We would have seen
improvement by now.
166
00:10:11,510 --> 00:10:14,741
- Late-stage Lyme disease
can cause seizures.
- Does the husband care about her?
167
00:10:14,814 --> 00:10:17,146
- He hasn't left her bedside.
- How annoying.
168
00:10:17,216 --> 00:10:19,207
It also means
she doesn't have Lyme disease.
169
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:21,412
What, love conquers all?
170
00:10:21,487 --> 00:10:23,455
Lyme disease initially presents
with a rash.
171
00:10:23,522 --> 00:10:26,013
- Mr. Clingy would have noticed.
- We've looked at everything else.
172
00:10:26,092 --> 00:10:27,923
Did you look at her breasts?
173
00:10:27,994 --> 00:10:29,256
[Scoffs]
Men.
174
00:10:29,328 --> 00:10:31,796
It could be paraneoplastic.
175
00:10:32,865 --> 00:10:35,527
She have any family history
of breast cancer?
176
00:10:35,601 --> 00:10:37,899
Her mother died of it.
177
00:10:37,970 --> 00:10:40,632
The brain, but not the brain.
178
00:10:40,706 --> 00:10:42,765
Clever, huh?
179
00:10:48,681 --> 00:10:52,082
How can breast cancer
cause problems in her brain?
180
00:10:52,151 --> 00:10:56,451
There are molecular similarities
between brain cells and tumor cells.
181
00:10:56,522 --> 00:11:00,788
Paraneoplastic syndrome
causes the body's own antibodies
to get thrown off track.
182
00:11:00,860 --> 00:11:03,727
They end up attacking the brain
instead of the tumor.
183
00:11:03,796 --> 00:11:06,492
So, if you do find a tumor,
what do you do?
184
00:11:06,565 --> 00:11:09,295
We treat the underlying malignancy.
185
00:11:09,368 --> 00:11:13,134
Once there's no tumor to attack,
there's nothing for the antibodies
to get confused about.
186
00:11:13,205 --> 00:11:15,969
- If the tumor's treatable.
- Exactly.
187
00:11:19,345 --> 00:11:21,472
[Beeping]
188
00:11:21,547 --> 00:11:24,448
Ow.
I'm sorry.
I know it's uncomfortable.
189
00:11:24,517 --> 00:11:27,782
The tighter we go,
the better the image will be.
190
00:11:27,853 --> 00:11:29,844
[Whirring]
191
00:11:31,424 --> 00:11:34,257
At least it'll keep me awake.
Don't worry. It's almost over.
192
00:11:35,661 --> 00:11:37,993
I wish people would stop
telling me not to worry.
193
00:11:38,064 --> 00:11:40,931
[Click]
I'm sorry.
194
00:11:42,702 --> 00:11:46,468
My mom was the same age.
195
00:11:46,539 --> 00:11:48,473
[Keypad Beeping]
196
00:11:50,776 --> 00:11:52,676
[Beep]
197
00:11:55,481 --> 00:12:00,043
We've been trying
to get pregnant for over a year.
Guess we're lucky we didn't.
198
00:12:00,119 --> 00:12:02,383
A lot has changed
since your mom died.
199
00:12:02,455 --> 00:12:04,389
Don't worr-
200
00:12:05,958 --> 00:12:07,823
Don't give up.
201
00:12:10,796 --> 00:12:12,730
[Keypad Beeps]
202
00:12:18,304 --> 00:12:20,238
[House]
No tumor?
203
00:12:20,306 --> 00:12:23,639
The M.R.I. And the mammogram
only showed a few benign calcifications.
204
00:12:23,709 --> 00:12:25,768
It's most likely a small-cell tumor.
205
00:12:25,845 --> 00:12:28,040
It's no surprise
we're having trouble finding it.
206
00:12:28,114 --> 00:12:31,982
We should do a PET scan.
Start with her lungs,
then maybe her bones.
207
00:12:32,051 --> 00:12:34,246
Sometimes it presents
with no tumor at all.
208
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:39,087
- How can a disease caused by a tumor
present if there's no tumor?
- It happens- 12% of cases.
209
00:12:39,158 --> 00:12:42,025
- And how do you treat it
if there's no tumor?
- You don't.
210
00:12:42,094 --> 00:12:44,619
Those 12%, no treatment.
211
00:12:44,697 --> 00:12:46,722
They were too busy
looking for the tumor-
212
00:12:46,799 --> 00:12:48,858
right till they put the patient
in the ground.
213
00:12:48,934 --> 00:12:51,926
- What choice do we have?
- Treat the symptoms.
214
00:12:52,004 --> 00:12:55,405
- I.V. Immunoglobulin.
- So we're just gonna ignore the tumor?
215
00:12:55,474 --> 00:12:58,932
Well, eventually it'll get bigger.
Then it'll be really easy to find.
216
00:12:59,011 --> 00:13:02,503
- One of you needs to check out
where she works.
- Why?
217
00:13:02,581 --> 00:13:05,106
- 'Cause the husband's not sick.
- [Chase]
Meaning?
218
00:13:05,184 --> 00:13:09,314
If it's not paraneoplastic,
and it is a reaction
to some sort of toxin,
219
00:13:09,388 --> 00:13:11,856
it's obviously not
coming from their home.
220
00:13:13,125 --> 00:13:15,355
Foreman, you do it.
221
00:13:18,364 --> 00:13:22,198
Why are you riding me?
It's what I do.
222
00:13:22,268 --> 00:13:24,896
Has it got worse lately?
Yeah. Seems to me.
223
00:13:24,970 --> 00:13:26,904
Really?
224
00:13:26,972 --> 00:13:30,772
Well, that rules out the race thing.
'Cause you were just as black last week.
225
00:13:32,378 --> 00:13:34,312
How long has Elyse worked here?
226
00:13:34,380 --> 00:13:36,780
Oh, three years.
She's my best rotisseur.
227
00:13:36,849 --> 00:13:41,377
And what's that?
The rotisseur prepares
the roasted meats and gravies.
228
00:13:41,453 --> 00:13:44,388
How do you clean your grill?
[Chuckles, Speaks French]
229
00:13:44,456 --> 00:13:46,822
You say "elbow grease."
Do you use chemical cleaners?
230
00:13:46,892 --> 00:13:50,055
Ah, non. Absolument.
And chefs don't do the cleaning anyway.
231
00:13:50,129 --> 00:13:53,394
What about pesticides?
You must spray for roaches
and that sort of thing.
232
00:13:53,465 --> 00:13:56,366
No. My kitchen is clean.
No roaches.
233
00:13:56,435 --> 00:13:59,871
[Speaking French]
[French]
234
00:13:59,939 --> 00:14:02,635
I need to get back to work.
235
00:14:02,708 --> 00:14:06,075
So the fact that I'm here
asking you these questions,
it doesn't worry you?
236
00:14:06,145 --> 00:14:08,909
[Chuckles]
Look at me.
I'm here 18 hours a day.
237
00:14:08,981 --> 00:14:12,178
That guy practically lives here.
He does live here.
238
00:14:12,251 --> 00:14:16,017
I use the same detergents
for 15 years, and everyone
is healthy as a horse.
239
00:14:16,088 --> 00:14:19,251
Whatever Elyse has,
she didn't get here.
240
00:14:19,325 --> 00:14:21,316
Tell her I hope
she feels better.
241
00:14:21,393 --> 00:14:23,520
And I had to get a new rotisseur.
242
00:14:36,308 --> 00:14:39,573
- Where's Ed?
- He went down to the gift shop
to buy a shirt.
243
00:14:39,645 --> 00:14:42,443
I told him I'd stay up here
in case you woke up.
244
00:14:43,916 --> 00:14:46,851
You must have better things to do.
245
00:14:46,919 --> 00:14:49,149
I send my laundry out.
246
00:14:49,221 --> 00:14:51,781
- You're not married?
- No.
247
00:14:51,857 --> 00:14:53,654
Waiting for the perfect guy?
248
00:14:55,361 --> 00:14:58,228
Let me guess.
You've already found him.
249
00:15:02,234 --> 00:15:04,828
He threw my towels out the window.
250
00:15:04,904 --> 00:15:08,499
[Chuckles]
That's how we met.
251
00:15:08,574 --> 00:15:13,876
Freshman year, Ed came to a party
that my roommate and I threw.
252
00:15:14,947 --> 00:15:18,041
He spent most of the night
on the bathroom floor.
253
00:15:19,451 --> 00:15:24,946
He figured I wouldn't notice
the vomit on the towels
if I didn't have any towels.
254
00:15:27,660 --> 00:15:30,151
I'm assuming he came back
the next day to apologize?
255
00:15:30,229 --> 00:15:32,595
No way.
I had to track him down.
256
00:15:34,566 --> 00:15:39,469
[Sighs]
Conflict resolution has never
been one of Ed's strong points.
257
00:15:40,572 --> 00:15:42,597
Nobody's perfect, right?
258
00:15:42,675 --> 00:15:45,337
I guess.
259
00:15:45,411 --> 00:15:47,276
Oh, my neck hurts.
260
00:15:48,981 --> 00:15:51,506
You've been in this bed
for a really long time.
261
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:59,087
We're gonna do the same test
we did last night, okay?
Do you know what day it is?
262
00:15:59,158 --> 00:16:04,357
My arm itches.
It's probably a mild skin irritation.
I'll get you some hydrocortisone in a minute.
263
00:16:04,430 --> 00:16:06,728
- Do you know what day it is?
- Tuesday.
264
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:08,994
It really itches.
265
00:16:09,068 --> 00:16:11,366
How about I get you
that cream right now?
266
00:16:19,478 --> 00:16:22,242
Oh, my God! Get them off!
Get 'em off of me!
267
00:16:22,314 --> 00:16:25,044
- Get 'em off me! Get 'em off me!
- Elyse, calm down.
268
00:16:25,117 --> 00:16:27,984
- Get them off me!
- Elyse, calm down. Calm down.
269
00:16:28,053 --> 00:16:30,544
They're biting me!
Oh! They're biting me!
270
00:16:30,622 --> 00:16:32,647
I'm gonna need some Haldol,
five milligrams.
271
00:16:32,725 --> 00:16:34,955
- Honey, what's wrong?
- Get 'em off!
272
00:16:37,997 --> 00:16:40,465
Get 'em off. Get 'em off.
There's nothing there, Elyse.
273
00:16:40,532 --> 00:16:42,500
They're biting me.
There's nothing there.
274
00:16:42,568 --> 00:16:44,502
Ow!
275
00:16:46,905 --> 00:16:48,839
[Foreman]
We had to sedate her.
276
00:16:48,907 --> 00:16:52,070
You gave sedatives to a patient
who's already sleeping
18 hours a day?
277
00:16:52,144 --> 00:16:54,942
It was better than letting her
scratch all the skin off her arms.
278
00:16:55,014 --> 00:16:58,711
- Where's Wilson?
- Creepy-crawlies are consistent
with paraneoplastic syndrome.
279
00:16:58,784 --> 00:17:01,082
Onset immediately after
I.V.I.G. Isn't.
280
00:17:01,153 --> 00:17:03,383
There is a simple explanation.
281
00:17:03,455 --> 00:17:05,446
Maybe she really has
bugs under her skin.
282
00:17:05,524 --> 00:17:10,120
- Infection?
- That's what a worsening of symptoms
after immunotherapy would suggest.
283
00:17:10,195 --> 00:17:13,130
Blood cultures and the timeline
rule out most bacteria.
284
00:17:13,198 --> 00:17:16,656
Patient throws up on your shoes,
do you clean up most of it?
285
00:17:16,735 --> 00:17:19,966
The symptoms rule out the rest.
Serology rules out viruses.
286
00:17:20,039 --> 00:17:22,007
C.S.F. Smears rule out parasites.
287
00:17:22,074 --> 00:17:25,271
In the final stage
of African trypanosomiasis...
288
00:17:25,344 --> 00:17:27,744
almost all the parasites
are inside the brain.
289
00:17:27,813 --> 00:17:29,906
It's possible
they wouldn't show on smears.
290
00:17:29,982 --> 00:17:34,476
But it's not possible for a patient
who's never been to Africa
to have African sleeping sickness.
291
00:17:34,553 --> 00:17:37,647
- I'm just saying it fits the symptoms.
- She could've got it from a transfusion.
292
00:17:37,723 --> 00:17:42,319
- Or I'm just saying she could've
got it from a transfusion.
- Which she never had.
293
00:17:42,394 --> 00:17:43,986
Okay.
[Wilson]
What about toxins?
294
00:17:44,063 --> 00:17:47,590
No, the kitchen she works in
is cleaner than some hospitals.
295
00:17:47,666 --> 00:17:50,032
But they do serve rabbit.
296
00:17:50,102 --> 00:17:52,764
Rabbit fever fits her symptoms.
297
00:17:52,838 --> 00:17:55,864
Tularemia initially presents
with a rash or ulcer near the infection site.
298
00:17:55,941 --> 00:18:00,378
Not if she inhaled it.
Chopping the meat with the cleaver
could easily aerosolize the bacteria.
299
00:18:00,446 --> 00:18:04,815
- No. Then she'd have respiratory symptoms.
- Maybe she ignored it,
figured she had a cold.
300
00:18:04,883 --> 00:18:07,977
We rejected Lyme disease because
the couple would have noticed a rash,
301
00:18:08,053 --> 00:18:10,317
but a wet, hacking cough
is just gonna slip right by?
302
00:18:10,389 --> 00:18:15,622
It's either that or she missed her exit
on the turnpike and wound up in Africa.
303
00:18:15,694 --> 00:18:17,958
Okay, two lousy ideas.
304
00:18:18,030 --> 00:18:20,555
Unfortunately, they're better
than all the other ideas.
305
00:18:20,632 --> 00:18:24,124
Tularemia. Bizarre.
306
00:18:25,204 --> 00:18:28,799
Very nice.
That's why I ride you.
307
00:18:37,649 --> 00:18:40,584
[Man On TV]
Stay tuned-
Did he just turn on the TV?
308
00:18:40,652 --> 00:18:42,711
He needs to think.
309
00:18:42,788 --> 00:18:46,280
So this should tell us
whether or not she's got rabbit fever?
310
00:18:46,358 --> 00:18:49,885
For a diagnosis of tularemia
you need a fourfold increase
in serum antibody levels.
311
00:18:49,962 --> 00:18:52,760
To measure an increase you need a before.
All we have is an after.
312
00:18:52,831 --> 00:18:56,392
- A single titer over 160
would be a big clue.
- "That's why I ride you."
313
00:18:56,468 --> 00:18:58,834
What does that mean?
When I have a good idea
it's because ofhim?
314
00:18:58,904 --> 00:19:02,032
Actually, I think he said
your idea was a lousy idea.
315
00:19:02,107 --> 00:19:06,009
It has to be one of these two conditions.
I say we take our best guess
and start treatment. Or treat both.
316
00:19:06,078 --> 00:19:08,546
The treatment for tularemia
can cause aplastic anemia.
317
00:19:08,614 --> 00:19:11,242
- How come he doesn't ride you guys?
- Got a crush on you.
318
00:19:11,316 --> 00:19:14,877
- He just doesn't know how to show it.
- Get over it. He rides everybody.
319
00:19:14,953 --> 00:19:18,684
- The treatment for sleeping sickness
kills one in 10 patients.
- We start with the safer treatment.
320
00:19:18,757 --> 00:19:22,318
By "safer," you mean the one
that's slightly less likely to kill her.
321
00:19:36,141 --> 00:19:38,803
Foreman got the gang
testing for tularemia?
322
00:19:38,877 --> 00:19:42,608
- Yep.
- Probably inconclusive, but worth doing.
323
00:19:42,681 --> 00:19:45,479
So, what's her name?
When do I get to meet her?
324
00:19:45,551 --> 00:19:48,247
- There's nobody.
Give it up.
- Your lips say no.
325
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,880
Your shoes say yes.
Well, they're French.
326
00:19:50,956 --> 00:19:54,687
- You can't trust a word they say.
- Solid, yet stylish.
327
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,024
A professional woman
would be impressed.
328
00:19:57,095 --> 00:20:00,121
I'm thinking accountant.
Actuary maybe.
329
00:20:00,199 --> 00:20:02,394
It's somebody in the hospital.
330
00:20:02,467 --> 00:20:04,401
Patient?
331
00:20:04,469 --> 00:20:07,495
No. Chemo's not sexy.
Daughter of a patient.
332
00:20:07,573 --> 00:20:09,598
She would certainly have
the neediness you need.
333
00:20:09,675 --> 00:20:11,768
I'm not gonna date
a patient's daughter.
334
00:20:11,843 --> 00:20:15,939
Very ethical.
Of course, most married men
would say they don't date at all.
335
00:20:16,014 --> 00:20:18,312
There was no date.
336
00:20:18,383 --> 00:20:20,977
I had lunch with one of the nurses.
337
00:20:21,053 --> 00:20:24,682
It's her first time in an oncology unit.
She's having a tough time- emotionally.
338
00:20:24,756 --> 00:20:27,122
- Perfect.
- I wanted to be nice.
339
00:20:27,192 --> 00:20:29,626
That's all.
I mean it.
340
00:20:29,695 --> 00:20:32,027
You always do.
It's part of your charm.
341
00:20:32,097 --> 00:20:33,962
Hi, boys.
342
00:20:34,032 --> 00:20:36,500
Mrs. Campbell's test results.
343
00:20:36,568 --> 00:20:39,435
You remember her.
The preschool teacher
with the heart of silicone.
344
00:20:39,504 --> 00:20:41,131
No. Doesn't ring a bell.
345
00:20:41,206 --> 00:20:45,643
They came in yesterday. I figured you guys
would have been all over them.
I know how concerned you were.
346
00:20:45,711 --> 00:20:49,306
She's all upset 'cause we paid
more attention to the other girl.
347
00:20:49,381 --> 00:20:51,872
You check out her ass.
I've got the chest.
348
00:20:51,950 --> 00:20:54,942
The tests were normal.
Of course, that's just my opinion.
349
00:20:55,020 --> 00:20:58,183
You might wanna call a couple of guys
from maintenance in for a consult.
350
00:20:58,257 --> 00:21:01,124
You check her E.K.G. Results
before she left the other day?
351
00:21:01,193 --> 00:21:03,388
- You ordered it.
- You're the responsible one.
352
00:21:03,462 --> 00:21:06,659
- What's wrong?
They look normal to me.
- Where is she?
353
00:21:06,732 --> 00:21:09,701
- Waiting downstairs. Why?
- I was right.
354
00:21:17,242 --> 00:21:20,075
Do I have to get rid of the implants?
355
00:21:20,145 --> 00:21:22,409
Surprisingly, no.
356
00:21:22,481 --> 00:21:25,678
But your E.K.G. Shows
a slightly decreased heart rate.
357
00:21:25,751 --> 00:21:29,312
Is that a problem?
You told me you hadn't changed
your diet or exercise. Were you lying?
358
00:21:29,388 --> 00:21:33,324
Lying?
Does your husband have
high blood pressure?
359
00:21:33,392 --> 00:21:35,326
My husband?
Yeah, you see,
360
00:21:35,394 --> 00:21:38,659
if you're gonna repeat
everything I say, this conversation's
gonna take twice as long.
361
00:21:38,730 --> 00:21:41,597
Yes. He was diagnosed
six months ago.
362
00:21:41,667 --> 00:21:44,727
He do a lot of cooking?
Not really, other than oatmeal
in the morning.
363
00:21:44,803 --> 00:21:48,705
Did you happen to notice
a slightly odd taste
to the oatmeal lately?
364
00:21:48,774 --> 00:21:51,242
Wait. Are you saying that-
That it looks like your husband...
365
00:21:51,310 --> 00:21:54,370
stirred in some of
his blood pressure medication
along with the brown sugar.
366
00:21:54,446 --> 00:21:59,349
You think my husband's
trying to poison me?
No. Nothing like that.
367
00:21:59,418 --> 00:22:02,581
He just doesn't
want to have sex with you.
368
00:22:02,654 --> 00:22:06,750
Decreased sex drive is one of
the most common side effects
of the beta-blockers he's been taking.
369
00:22:06,825 --> 00:22:10,420
I'm guessing he figured
if you're both frigid, no harm, no foul.
370
00:22:10,495 --> 00:22:13,623
Should've gotten him the sweater.
That's ridiculous.
371
00:22:13,699 --> 00:22:19,501
Fine. But if you're still concerned
about the shortness of breath,
I'd start making your own breakfast.
372
00:22:19,571 --> 00:22:21,732
Wait.
373
00:22:21,807 --> 00:22:24,002
What should I do?
374
00:22:25,577 --> 00:22:29,604
If you care about your husband at all,
I'd do the responsible thing.
375
00:22:29,681 --> 00:22:32,616
Buy yourself some condoms,
go to a bar, find-
376
00:22:38,290 --> 00:22:40,224
Huh.
377
00:22:47,466 --> 00:22:49,764
[Beep]
378
00:22:50,836 --> 00:22:53,304
Lab tests inconclusive?
379
00:22:53,372 --> 00:22:56,136
Not surprisingly.
No. But too bad.
380
00:22:56,208 --> 00:22:59,302
Luckily, I have the answer.
381
00:22:59,378 --> 00:23:01,642
- To what?
- Thanks for asking.
382
00:23:01,713 --> 00:23:06,480
To life itself: Sex. Anything that can be
transmitted via the blood
can be transmitted through sex.
383
00:23:06,551 --> 00:23:09,281
- Sleeping sickness from sex?
- It's not without precedent.
384
00:23:09,354 --> 00:23:13,814
I'm pretty sure it is, unless you're
talking about going to Africa
and having sex with a tsetse fly.
385
00:23:13,892 --> 00:23:18,420
A Portuguese man
was diagnosed three years ago
with C.N.S. -affected sleeping sickness.
386
00:23:18,497 --> 00:23:22,661
His only connection with Africa
was through a girlfriend
who'd served with the military in Angola.
387
00:23:22,734 --> 00:23:24,702
Boy. Where'd you find that?
388
00:23:24,770 --> 00:23:28,297
TheJournal of the Instituto
de Higiene e Medicina Tropical.
389
00:23:28,373 --> 00:23:30,341
- You don't read Portuguese?
- You do?
390
00:23:30,409 --> 00:23:34,277
Pretty sure that's what it said.
Either that or it was
an ad for sunglasses.
391
00:23:34,346 --> 00:23:36,371
Her husband has never
been to Africa either.
392
00:23:36,448 --> 00:23:39,781
Oh, stymied again.
Your logic is bulletproof.
393
00:23:39,851 --> 00:23:43,116
I think ignoring respiratory symptoms
is more likely than cheating.
394
00:23:43,188 --> 00:23:47,090
Because?
They're completely
devoted to each other.
395
00:23:47,159 --> 00:23:49,787
Because?
They love each other.
396
00:23:49,861 --> 00:23:51,795
Or?
397
00:23:51,863 --> 00:23:54,354
They're overcompensating for guilt.
398
00:23:55,734 --> 00:24:01,195
- Find out which it is.
- You want me to ask a man whose wife
is about to die if he cheated on her?
399
00:24:01,273 --> 00:24:04,470
No, I want you to be polite
and let her die.
400
00:24:04,543 --> 00:24:08,707
Actually, I don't want you
to ask her anything. Foreman,
take the husband. Chase, take the wife.
401
00:24:18,690 --> 00:24:21,420
You don't trust me to do my job?
402
00:24:21,493 --> 00:24:24,462
We all formulate questions based on
the answers we want to hear.
403
00:24:24,529 --> 00:24:27,157
And how exactly do you reformulate
"Have you screwed around?"
404
00:24:27,232 --> 00:24:29,564
Did you know she's been
trying to get pregnant?
Yes.
405
00:24:29,634 --> 00:24:33,536
After you got so freaked
about the sick babies a while ago,
lfigured that was your thing.
406
00:24:33,605 --> 00:24:37,598
But you've never been prescribed
folic acid, and you can't lose a baby
if you've never been pregnant.
407
00:24:37,676 --> 00:24:41,544
You pulled my medical records?
You coughed the other day.
I was concerned.
408
00:24:41,613 --> 00:24:47,415
You were curious, like an eight-year-old boy
with a puzzle that's just a little too
grown-up for him to figure out.
409
00:24:48,553 --> 00:24:50,578
Tomayto, tomahto.
410
00:24:51,656 --> 00:24:56,093
So it's either, uh, sleeping sickness
or this rabbit thing?
411
00:24:56,161 --> 00:24:58,152
They're both fatal without treatment.
412
00:24:58,230 --> 00:25:01,757
And unfortunately, the treatment
for both is extremely dangerous.
413
00:25:01,833 --> 00:25:04,768
Are there tests you can do?
Not at this stage.
414
00:25:04,836 --> 00:25:07,566
But each condition has a unique history.
415
00:25:08,573 --> 00:25:11,633
We're hoping your answers
to a few questions will help us.
416
00:25:11,710 --> 00:25:14,975
Sure. Whatever you need to know.
417
00:25:15,046 --> 00:25:18,607
Before the sleeping problems,
did you have any trouble breathing,
418
00:25:18,683 --> 00:25:21,709
a cough that wouldn't go away-
anything like that?
419
00:25:23,054 --> 00:25:25,045
No.
420
00:25:25,123 --> 00:25:27,455
Are you certain?
[Ed]
Absolutely.
421
00:25:27,526 --> 00:25:30,120
I've never been away from her
for more than a night.
422
00:25:30,195 --> 00:25:32,595
If she had breathing troubles
I would've noticed.
423
00:25:34,833 --> 00:25:38,394
The other condition is
significantly more likely if-
424
00:25:40,171 --> 00:25:42,264
if you've had an affair.
425
00:25:42,340 --> 00:25:45,002
Have you ever had an affair?
426
00:25:45,076 --> 00:25:47,101
Of course not.
427
00:25:47,178 --> 00:25:51,080
- Are you sure?
- I think I'd remember
cheating on my wife.
428
00:25:51,149 --> 00:25:53,174
You might be
reluctant to admit it.
No.
429
00:25:53,251 --> 00:25:55,412
I just want to be perfectly clear.
430
00:25:55,487 --> 00:25:59,082
If your wife has sleeping sickness,
and we don't treat her,
431
00:26:00,091 --> 00:26:02,025
she'll die.
432
00:26:02,093 --> 00:26:05,426
I would never do that to Ed.
433
00:26:05,497 --> 00:26:08,864
I love him.
[Ed]
Absolutely not.
434
00:26:08,934 --> 00:26:10,925
I love her.
435
00:26:14,873 --> 00:26:16,864
All right.
436
00:26:24,215 --> 00:26:29,619
All right then.
They say no cheating,
we cross off sleeping sickness.
437
00:26:29,688 --> 00:26:31,815
Any new ideas?
438
00:26:33,091 --> 00:26:35,184
Okay. We go with Foreman's tularemia.
439
00:26:35,260 --> 00:26:39,390
Start her on I.V. Chloramphenicol,
25 milligrams per kilogram,
four times a day.
440
00:26:39,464 --> 00:26:41,455
Good night.
441
00:26:45,036 --> 00:26:47,630
[Machine Beeping]
442
00:26:53,945 --> 00:26:57,574
Where's Ed?
Right next to you.
443
00:26:57,649 --> 00:26:59,810
Well, you're two down,
two to go.
444
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,854
Two days?
445
00:27:03,922 --> 00:27:07,688
No. Doses. You have about
20 more days of this fun.
446
00:27:07,759 --> 00:27:10,421
What time is it?
447
00:27:10,495 --> 00:27:14,329
About 4:00 a.m.
I pulled the short straw.
448
00:27:17,569 --> 00:27:19,560
Flow rate looks good.
449
00:27:24,442 --> 00:27:26,433
No rash or flushing.
450
00:27:27,445 --> 00:27:30,073
What time is it?
451
00:27:31,416 --> 00:27:33,976
4:00 a.m.
452
00:27:34,052 --> 00:27:36,452
Do you not remember just asking?
453
00:27:38,723 --> 00:27:40,714
I don't-
454
00:27:40,792 --> 00:27:43,056
Elyse?
455
00:27:44,929 --> 00:27:47,864
Elyse? Elyse?
456
00:27:47,932 --> 00:27:50,765
- Elyse.
- What are you doing?
457
00:27:50,835 --> 00:27:52,860
- I'm trying to wake her.
- She fall asleep again?
458
00:27:52,937 --> 00:27:55,201
In the middle of a sentence.
Elyse. Elyse.
459
00:27:55,273 --> 00:27:58,834
- [Man]
What's happening?
- Patient's not responding.
460
00:27:58,910 --> 00:28:01,174
Pulse is fine.
Airway's open.
461
00:28:01,246 --> 00:28:03,237
Check her blood pressure.
462
00:28:04,849 --> 00:28:07,113
Pupils are reactive.
463
00:28:07,185 --> 00:28:09,779
Elyse, wake up.
You gotta wake up.
464
00:28:09,854 --> 00:28:13,654
- What does that mean?
What are you doing?
- She's unresponsive to pain.
465
00:28:13,725 --> 00:28:16,626
Come on, Elyse.
466
00:28:16,695 --> 00:28:19,926
- Is she dying?
- I don't know.
467
00:28:30,375 --> 00:28:32,240
She's in a coma.
468
00:28:38,683 --> 00:28:42,244
There's only one way
a tularemia patient
goes into a coma...
469
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,254
while on I.V. Chloramphenicol.
470
00:28:44,322 --> 00:28:47,655
The patient doesn't have tularemia.
And then there was one.
471
00:28:47,726 --> 00:28:49,751
Patient comes in
'cause she's sleeping too much.
472
00:28:49,828 --> 00:28:53,992
It takes 10 doctors and a coma
to diagnose sleeping sickness.
And then there was none.
473
00:28:54,065 --> 00:28:57,125
We still have the problem
of explaining how
a white chick from Jersey...
474
00:28:57,202 --> 00:28:59,727
who's never traveled south of D.C.
Has African sleeping sickness.
475
00:28:59,804 --> 00:29:02,034
Still have the obvious explanation.
476
00:29:03,041 --> 00:29:08,138
I made it clear.
If this guy's lying about sleeping around
he knows he's murdering his wife.
477
00:29:08,213 --> 00:29:10,374
Does seem unlikely.
478
00:29:10,448 --> 00:29:12,439
Go away.
479

[Beeping]
480
00:29:29,734 --> 00:29:32,100
What are you doing?
481
00:29:33,304 --> 00:29:35,704
Checking for lymphadenopathy.
482
00:29:35,774 --> 00:29:39,403
And waiting for you.
Who are you?
483
00:29:39,477 --> 00:29:41,570
I'm Dr. House.
484
00:29:41,646 --> 00:29:44,615
Your wife has
human African trypanosomiasis.
485
00:29:46,117 --> 00:29:49,450
Sleeping sickness.
You mean it's not tularemia,
486
00:29:49,521 --> 00:29:52,081
a virus, tumor or- or cancer?
487
00:29:52,157 --> 00:29:55,024
No.
488
00:29:56,728 --> 00:29:58,855
I've never had an affair.
489
00:29:58,930 --> 00:30:01,023
I believe you.
490
00:30:01,099 --> 00:30:03,693
And I trust Elyse.
491
00:30:05,470 --> 00:30:09,236
The treatment for this disease
is a drug that's...
492
00:30:09,307 --> 00:30:12,299
fatal on its own 10% of the time.
493
00:30:12,377 --> 00:30:16,438
Which is why I need
your written consent
before I can legally prescribe it.
494
00:30:16,514 --> 00:30:20,075
Why would she lie
if she knew it could kill her?
I don't ask why patients lie.
495
00:30:20,151 --> 00:30:22,085
I just assume they all do.
496
00:30:22,153 --> 00:30:24,747
But why?
To protect you,
497
00:30:24,823 --> 00:30:27,883
because she didn't think it mattered,
it just seemed easier, because...
498
00:30:29,427 --> 00:30:31,418
that's what people do.
499
00:30:34,265 --> 00:30:37,826
If you're absolutely certain
that your wife has never
had sex with anyone but you...
500
00:30:37,902 --> 00:30:40,427
since you were married,
then I'm wrong.
501
00:30:42,207 --> 00:30:46,701
But if you think there's
a possibility that just one time...
502
00:30:48,012 --> 00:30:50,674
she wasn't perfect-
503
00:30:50,748 --> 00:30:52,909
one weekend you're out of town,
504
00:30:53,918 --> 00:30:56,113
one fight where she ran to a friend,
505
00:30:56,187 --> 00:30:58,246
one stupid Christmas party-
506
00:31:00,959 --> 00:31:04,053
then you need to allow me
to start treatment.
507
00:31:05,597 --> 00:31:07,724
Because if we don't,
508
00:31:07,799 --> 00:31:09,767
she's gonna be dead
by tomorrow morning.
509
00:31:19,177 --> 00:31:21,338
You trust your wife that much?
510
00:31:23,615 --> 00:31:25,606
I don't know.
511
00:31:29,220 --> 00:31:32,314
I'm gonna start the treatment.
512
00:31:47,305 --> 00:31:51,264
Glass syringes?
And special I.V. Tubing.
513
00:31:51,342 --> 00:31:54,368
Why do we need this stuff?
Because melarsoprol melts plastic.
514
00:31:54,445 --> 00:31:56,970
This stuff's basically arsenic
mixed with antifreeze.
515
00:31:58,082 --> 00:32:00,141
What doesn't kill us
makes us stronger, huh?
516
00:32:00,218 --> 00:32:03,187
Nietzsche wouldn't have been so glib
if he'd been prescribed melarsoprol.
517
00:32:05,323 --> 00:32:08,019
"Can cause vomiting, abdominal pain,
518
00:32:08,092 --> 00:32:10,856
blood toxicity, neural damage,
cardiac arrhythmia."
519
00:32:10,929 --> 00:32:13,523
They forgot to say
it's gonna hurt like all hell.
520
00:32:13,598 --> 00:32:16,158
[Foreman]
She's lucky she's in a coma.
521
00:32:33,117 --> 00:32:36,553
How long before we know
if it's working?
It's tough to say.
522
00:32:36,621 --> 00:32:39,419
It's a good sign
that she hasn't gotten any worse.
523
00:32:42,327 --> 00:32:44,454
Does she even know I'm here?
524
00:32:44,529 --> 00:32:47,191
She knows you're
always there for her.
525
00:32:50,068 --> 00:32:52,229
Yeah.
526
00:32:52,303 --> 00:32:54,533
If she gets better,
527
00:32:54,605 --> 00:32:56,630
it means she wasn't always there for me.
528
00:33:00,278 --> 00:33:02,803
It means she made a mistake.
529
00:33:04,315 --> 00:33:06,306
I can't help it.
530
00:33:06,384 --> 00:33:10,912
Part of me- a big part of me-
can't handle that.
531
00:33:12,724 --> 00:33:15,249
It doesn't want her to get better.
532
00:33:25,069 --> 00:33:27,060
Does that make me
a terrible person?
533
00:33:35,780 --> 00:33:37,771
Yes.
534
00:33:56,667 --> 00:33:59,227
[Elevator Bell Dings]
535
00:33:59,303 --> 00:34:01,999
So you're treating her
for African sleeping sickness...
536
00:34:02,073 --> 00:34:05,531
because you don't think it's possible
for someone to be faithful
in a relationship?
537
00:34:05,610 --> 00:34:07,578
And you do?
Yes.
538
00:34:07,645 --> 00:34:11,843
And you need to tell me that.
[Chuckles]
Look. I am not having an affair.
539
00:34:11,916 --> 00:34:15,374
I had lunch with someone
I work with- at work. Once.
540
00:34:15,453 --> 00:34:19,048
I believe you.
What I don't believe
is it'll be just once.
541
00:34:19,123 --> 00:34:21,614
I love my wife.
You certainly love saying it.
542
00:34:21,692 --> 00:34:25,355
[Chuckles]
I'm sorry.
I know you love your wife.
543
00:34:25,430 --> 00:34:27,489
You loved all your wives.
Probably still do.
544
00:34:27,565 --> 00:34:30,932
In fact, you probably love
all the women you loved
who weren't your wife.
545
00:34:31,002 --> 00:34:34,460
You can be a real jerk sometimes,
you know that?
Yeah. And you're the good guy.
546
00:34:34,539 --> 00:34:38,134
At least I try.
As long as you're trying to be good,
you can do whatever you want.
547
00:34:38,209 --> 00:34:42,543
And as long as you're not trying,
you can say whatever you want.
So, between us, we can do anything.
548
00:34:42,613 --> 00:34:45,138
We can rule the world.

Mine's a double, senorita.

554
00:35:10,441 --> 00:35:13,205

Okay.
560
00:35:49,113 --> 00:35:51,673
I told the husband he was a jerk.
561
00:35:53,551 --> 00:35:55,542
Why?
562
00:36:01,692 --> 00:36:03,956
When I was in college, l-
563
00:36:06,831 --> 00:36:11,393
I fell in love,
and I got married.
564
00:36:11,469 --> 00:36:13,630
And-
565
00:36:13,704 --> 00:36:15,797
At that age, the chances
of marriage lasting-
566
00:36:15,873 --> 00:36:18,273
It lasted six months.
567
00:36:20,411 --> 00:36:23,574
Thyroid cancer
metastasized to his brain.
568
00:36:23,648 --> 00:36:25,741
There was nothing they could do.
569
00:36:27,852 --> 00:36:29,786
I was 21, and...
570
00:36:31,222 --> 00:36:33,156
I watched my husband die.

00:36:36,827 --> 00:36:38,795
I'm sorry.

But that's not the whole story.
573
00:36:47,338 --> 00:36:50,000
It's a symptom, not your illness.
574
00:36:50,074 --> 00:36:53,737
Thyroid cancer would have been
diagnosed at least a year before his death.
575
00:36:53,811 --> 00:36:56,302
You knew he was dying
when you married him.
576
00:36:56,380 --> 00:36:59,178
It must have been
when you first met him.
577
00:37:02,553 --> 00:37:05,522
And you married him anyway.
578
00:37:07,225 --> 00:37:11,127
You can't be that good a person
and well-adjusted.

Still no change.

Killing the parasites
isn't gonna do much good
if we kill her heart at the same time.

00:38:00,645 --> 00:38:03,045
A heart can be replaced.
A brain can't.

Right now we're killing both.

let her do it without that acid
