1
00:00:37,914 --> 00:00:39,665
They have a cure for that, you know ?
2
00:00:39,749 --> 00:00:41,383
It's called a computer.
3
00:00:41,451 --> 00:00:42,618
We done for the day,
4
00:00:42,669 --> 00:00:44,170
or do I need to find
something else to read ?
5
00:00:44,254 --> 00:00:46,889
I'm done.
6
00:00:46,956 --> 00:00:49,725
It's done.
7
00:00:49,792 --> 00:00:52,194
No way. It's finished ?
8
00:00:52,262 --> 00:00:53,946
Well, how... how's it end ?
9
00:00:54,014 --> 00:00:55,231
I mean, you got to let me read it.
10
00:00:55,298 --> 00:00:57,483
Not this time.
11
00:00:57,567 --> 00:00:59,652
W... you at least got
to tell me what happens.
12
00:00:59,736 --> 00:01:01,237
Come on.
13
00:01:01,304 --> 00:01:03,355
How am I supposed to help with
the next book if you don't...
14
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,675
there isn't going to be a next book.
15
00:01:06,743 --> 00:01:11,146
You can't be serious. Why ?
16
00:01:11,198 --> 00:01:12,414
You wouldn't understand.
17
00:01:12,482 --> 00:01:13,833
Try me.
18
00:01:19,856 --> 00:01:23,008
I just can't do it anymore.
19
00:01:23,093 --> 00:01:25,878
I'm not brave like you.
20
00:01:28,048 --> 00:01:30,015
But writing' your whole life.
21
00:01:30,100 --> 00:01:32,101
What are you gonna do without it ?
22
00:01:32,168 --> 00:01:35,604
What I should have done years ago.
23
00:01:35,672 --> 00:01:37,005
What are you doing ?
24
00:01:37,057 --> 00:01:38,390
Put it down, or I'll...
25
00:01:38,475 --> 00:01:41,043
I'll make you.
26
00:01:41,111 --> 00:01:44,363
How, Jack ?
27
00:01:44,431 --> 00:01:46,782
You don't even exist.
28
00:01:49,319 --> 00:01:51,987
I'm sorry.
29
00:02:00,964 --> 00:02:02,164
Miss Tanner.
30
00:02:02,215 --> 00:02:04,233
Miss Tanner.
31
00:02:04,301 --> 00:02:06,752
Oh, dear God.
32
00:03:18,341 --> 00:03:21,527
Which of these says "I want
to sleep with you" more ?
33
00:03:21,611 --> 00:03:23,729
Penguin or beaver ?
34
00:03:23,813 --> 00:03:25,864
Beaver. Beaver. Beaver.
35
00:03:25,949 --> 00:03:27,783
You're right. It's too high school.
36
00:03:27,850 --> 00:03:29,184
What did you do to piss Cuddy off ?
37
00:03:29,235 --> 00:03:31,320
I can't be romantic ?
38
00:03:31,371 --> 00:03:33,372
House, you're stealing
from a woman in a coma.
39
00:03:33,456 --> 00:03:35,991
We're fine. Never seen her happier.
40
00:03:36,042 --> 00:03:38,711
Yeah ? How about you ?
41
00:03:38,795 --> 00:03:40,829
I'm... Worried.
42
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,214
Because she's happy ?
43
00:03:42,299 --> 00:03:43,799
No, because I am.
44
00:03:43,866 --> 00:03:44,833
House, that's...
45
00:03:44,884 --> 00:03:47,336
ironic ? Weird ? Crazy ?
46
00:03:47,387 --> 00:03:49,388
I was going to say normal.
47
00:03:49,472 --> 00:03:51,090
For now.
48
00:03:51,174 --> 00:03:52,341
We're in the honeymoon period.
49
00:03:52,392 --> 00:03:55,344
Our brains are flooded with endorphins.
50
00:03:55,395 --> 00:03:56,729
Once she snaps out of it,
51
00:03:56,813 --> 00:03:57,763
where does that leave us ?
52
00:03:57,847 --> 00:03:59,565
In an adult relationship.
53
00:03:59,649 --> 00:04:03,485
Name one thing that Cuddy and
I have in common besides work.
54
00:04:03,553 --> 00:04:05,887
There's...
55
00:04:05,939 --> 00:04:07,106
You're both...
56
00:04:07,190 --> 00:04:08,073
Wait.
57
00:04:08,158 --> 00:04:09,742
Exactly.
58
00:04:09,826 --> 00:04:12,778
Long-term relationships
are based on compatibility,
59
00:04:12,862 --> 00:04:14,730
and right now we only have sex.
60
00:04:14,781 --> 00:04:16,398
House, you don't actually think
61
00:04:16,449 --> 00:04:18,167
she'd dump you because you, what,
62
00:04:18,234 --> 00:04:19,735
don't do yoga ?
63
00:04:19,786 --> 00:04:20,836
Listen to the B-52s ?
64
00:04:20,903 --> 00:04:22,671
Not right away.
65
00:04:22,739 --> 00:04:26,175
We'll fight, makeup sex,
66
00:04:26,242 --> 00:04:28,010
fight, maybe sex,
67
00:04:28,077 --> 00:04:29,745
and then she'll dump me.
68
00:04:29,796 --> 00:04:32,214
With possible goodbye sex.
69
00:04:32,265 --> 00:04:34,433
So, instead of enjoying
the honeymoon phase,
70
00:04:34,517 --> 00:04:36,752
you've decided to skip it entirely.
71
00:04:36,803 --> 00:04:39,138
I need to find something
that we both like doing
72
00:04:39,222 --> 00:04:40,689
besides each other.
73
00:04:40,757 --> 00:04:42,941
Right. Or you could just
talk to her about it.
74
00:04:43,026 --> 00:04:45,144
No, then she'll start
pretending to like things
75
00:04:45,228 --> 00:04:47,229
that she really doesn't
just to make me feel better,
76
00:04:47,280 --> 00:04:48,647
which will make her feel even worse,
77
00:04:48,732 --> 00:04:51,433
which won't be my fault,
so I'll resent her,
78
00:04:51,484 --> 00:04:53,619
and that won't be her
fault, so she'll resent me.
79
00:04:54,654 --> 00:04:55,871
At least with my plan
80
00:04:55,938 --> 00:04:58,991
I get my one a day with
iron till the bitter end.
81
00:04:59,075 --> 00:05:00,626
Is there a reason why
you're following me ?
82
00:05:00,710 --> 00:05:02,378
Oh, yeah.
83
00:05:02,445 --> 00:05:06,298
You're not gonna believe who
just checked into the E.R.
84
00:05:06,383 --> 00:05:08,217
The doctor hasn't examined you yet.
85
00:05:08,284 --> 00:05:09,385
There's nothing wrong with me.
86
00:05:09,452 --> 00:05:11,303
My maid just overreacted.
87
00:05:11,388 --> 00:05:13,389
Great.
88
00:05:13,456 --> 00:05:15,340
This won't take long then.
89
00:05:15,425 --> 00:05:17,226
EMTs found her unconscious.
90
00:05:17,293 --> 00:05:19,645
Her maid said she had a seizure.
91
00:05:19,729 --> 00:05:21,730
I fainted.
92
00:05:21,798 --> 00:05:23,982
Huge Jack Cannon fan, by the way.
93
00:05:24,067 --> 00:05:24,966
Love your books.
94
00:05:25,018 --> 00:05:26,568
Really ?
95
00:05:26,636 --> 00:05:30,138
My fans tend to be
overly-annoying teenaged girls.
96
00:05:30,190 --> 00:05:31,390
I know.
97
00:05:31,458 --> 00:05:33,325
All they care about is who's hotter,
98
00:05:33,410 --> 00:05:34,493
Jack or Deacon.
99
00:05:34,577 --> 00:05:36,211
Like Sarah can't love both of them.
100
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,980
I may belong to one or
two online fan clubs.
101
00:05:42,419 --> 00:05:43,502
How's the new book coming along ?
102
00:05:43,586 --> 00:05:45,504
I don't talk about my work.
103
00:05:45,588 --> 00:05:47,172
'Kay.
104
00:05:47,257 --> 00:05:48,323
How about nodding your head
105
00:05:48,374 --> 00:05:51,810
to a few yes/no questions ?
106
00:05:51,878 --> 00:05:53,612
But I'll make you a deal.
107
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,931
You finish this exam quickly,
108
00:05:55,998 --> 00:05:58,634
and I'll answer one question.
109
00:05:58,701 --> 00:05:59,935
About anything ?
110
00:06:00,003 --> 00:06:01,136
Anything.
111
00:06:01,204 --> 00:06:02,721
Who was Jack's real father,
112
00:06:02,789 --> 00:06:04,640
who kidnapped his Uncle...
113
00:06:04,691 --> 00:06:07,893
Deal.
114
00:06:07,977 --> 00:06:09,394
I will have to go with
115
00:06:09,462 --> 00:06:11,647
why'd you try to kill yourself ?
116
00:06:11,698 --> 00:06:12,998
Burn on the side of your face
117
00:06:13,066 --> 00:06:14,616
is caused by gunpowder,
118
00:06:14,684 --> 00:06:16,101
so change your mind at the last second,
119
00:06:16,169 --> 00:06:18,036
or you just a lousy shot ?
120
00:06:18,121 --> 00:06:19,187
I'm out of here.
121
00:06:19,239 --> 00:06:21,022
Can't. We had a deal.
122
00:06:21,074 --> 00:06:23,208
Try and stop me.
123
00:06:23,293 --> 00:06:24,409
Okay.
124
00:06:24,494 --> 00:06:27,362
This woman is on a
72-hour psychiatric hold.
125
00:06:27,430 --> 00:06:29,698
If she tries to run, shoot her.
126
00:06:29,749 --> 00:06:30,666
With a sedative.
127
00:06:30,717 --> 00:06:32,417
That's more convenient.
128
00:06:43,062 --> 00:06:44,680
You called us back to work
129
00:06:44,731 --> 00:06:47,048
because a lady might have had a seizure.
130
00:06:47,100 --> 00:06:49,651
A seizure while trying
to commit suicide.
131
00:06:49,719 --> 00:06:50,903
So send her for a psych eval.
132
00:06:50,987 --> 00:06:52,821
What's that got to do with us ?
133
00:06:52,889 --> 00:06:54,556
What is the matter with you people ?
134
00:06:54,607 --> 00:06:58,861
We're talking about a
human being who's suffering.
135
00:06:58,928 --> 00:07:00,996
You're right. That's not enough.
136
00:07:01,063 --> 00:07:05,284
She is also the writer of
Jack Cannon: Boy Detective,
137
00:07:05,368 --> 00:07:07,252
beloved by millions around the world.
138
00:07:07,337 --> 00:07:11,340
By girls between 10 and 14.
139
00:07:11,407 --> 00:07:13,041
Look, the point is
140
00:07:13,092 --> 00:07:14,710
if she kills herself,
141
00:07:14,761 --> 00:07:16,912
millions of fans of all ages and genders
142
00:07:16,963 --> 00:07:18,931
will be very disappointed.
143
00:07:19,015 --> 00:07:20,632
So we're taking this
case 'cause you're a fan ?
144
00:07:20,717 --> 00:07:22,467
No, that would be crazy
and unprofessional.
145
00:07:22,552 --> 00:07:24,269
You're taking this
case 'cause I said so.
146
00:07:24,354 --> 00:07:25,504
You and Taub do a full workup.
147
00:07:25,572 --> 00:07:27,139
Observe her overnight.
148
00:07:27,223 --> 00:07:29,274
See if she has another
seizure. You can go.
149
00:07:29,359 --> 00:07:30,659
Why does he get the night off ?
150
00:07:30,727 --> 00:07:33,228
Because he brought a smokin' hot babe.
151
00:07:39,452 --> 00:07:40,953
I have plans with my wife.
152
00:07:41,037 --> 00:07:42,037
Yeah, nice try,
153
00:07:42,104 --> 00:07:43,488
but you hate your personal life.
154
00:07:43,573 --> 00:07:46,909
And you obviously don't have one.
155
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,044
Hey.
156
00:07:50,246 --> 00:07:51,730
I'd stay myself,
157
00:07:51,798 --> 00:07:54,082
but I just bought the flowers.
158
00:07:56,252 --> 00:07:58,053
Reservation for
Dominica's isn't till 8:00,
159
00:07:58,121 --> 00:07:59,471
so we got plenty of time.
160
00:07:59,539 --> 00:08:01,957
We need to pick something
up from a haunted house ?
161
00:08:02,008 --> 00:08:04,509
This is a Gothic Revival masterpiece.
162
00:08:04,594 --> 00:08:07,596
I hope one day to live
in a house like this.
163
00:08:14,887 --> 00:08:16,321
Your friend's a writer ?
164
00:08:16,389 --> 00:08:18,223
One of the best.
165
00:08:18,291 --> 00:08:22,995
She wants me to read
her latest manuscript.
166
00:08:23,062 --> 00:08:25,113
Alice Tanner.
167
00:08:25,164 --> 00:08:26,815
Why does that name sound familiar ?
168
00:08:26,866 --> 00:08:29,484
I gave you a couple of
her books a few years ago.
169
00:08:32,288 --> 00:08:34,806
No.
170
00:08:34,874 --> 00:08:38,010
She's the woman you
put on the psych hold.
171
00:08:38,077 --> 00:08:39,027
This isn't a date.
172
00:08:39,095 --> 00:08:40,662
We're on a case.
173
00:08:40,713 --> 00:08:42,431
Ever hear of multitasking ?
174
00:08:42,498 --> 00:08:44,349
Did you steal her keys ?
175
00:08:44,434 --> 00:08:47,269
Think I'd take the Dean of
Medicine on a "B" and "E" ?
176
00:08:47,336 --> 00:08:51,290
How did you get in here ?
177
00:08:51,357 --> 00:08:53,725
Well, I guess you have your answer.
178
00:08:55,161 --> 00:08:56,962
When was your last physical ?
179
00:08:57,046 --> 00:08:58,446
A while ago.
180
00:08:58,498 --> 00:09:02,217
I don't like doctors.
181
00:09:02,284 --> 00:09:04,219
Any history of seizures before today ?
182
00:09:04,286 --> 00:09:05,937
Not that I recall.
183
00:09:06,005 --> 00:09:07,889
Are we almost done ?
184
00:09:07,957 --> 00:09:09,474
I'm tired.
185
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:10,709
The exam would go faster
186
00:09:10,777 --> 00:09:12,460
if you would cooperate with us.
187
00:09:12,512 --> 00:09:14,096
I am.
188
00:09:14,147 --> 00:09:16,297
You're evading every question we ask.
189
00:09:16,349 --> 00:09:17,899
Why do you say that ?
190
00:09:17,967 --> 00:09:19,768
That.
191
00:09:19,819 --> 00:09:22,220
I didn't ask for help.
192
00:09:22,288 --> 00:09:24,823
Committing a suicidal
gesture says otherwise.
193
00:09:24,907 --> 00:09:26,842
It wasn't a gesture.
194
00:09:26,909 --> 00:09:28,060
I had the damn seizure
195
00:09:28,127 --> 00:09:30,529
before I could get the gun in my mouth.
196
00:09:30,613 --> 00:09:32,814
You want to tell us why ?
197
00:09:32,882 --> 00:09:33,949
You want to know my life story,
198
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,451
my secret, inner pain ?
199
00:09:36,502 --> 00:09:38,120
Maybe if I just open up a little,
200
00:09:38,171 --> 00:09:41,039
you'll be able to save me ?
201
00:09:41,107 --> 00:09:43,258
We're just trying to help you.
202
00:09:43,325 --> 00:09:47,328
Thank you.
203
00:09:47,380 --> 00:09:48,496
I want a woman doctor.
204
00:09:48,548 --> 00:09:50,098
And back to being evasive.
205
00:09:50,166 --> 00:09:52,901
It's my right as a patient.
206
00:09:52,969 --> 00:09:55,520
So please get out. Now.
207
00:09:55,605 --> 00:09:56,605
We need to observe you overnight.
208
00:09:56,673 --> 00:09:58,390
You really think I'm stupid enough
209
00:09:58,474 --> 00:10:00,525
to try and kill myself in a hospital ?
210
00:10:00,593 --> 00:10:02,110
To see if you have another seizure.
211
00:10:02,178 --> 00:10:03,612
We'll be up there,
212
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,513
and we won't disturb you
unless there's a problem.
213
00:10:05,565 --> 00:10:06,965
That work for you ?
214
00:10:07,033 --> 00:10:09,551
Whatever it takes to
get you out of here.
215
00:10:11,354 --> 00:10:15,207
House, Christina has agreed
to not call the police.
216
00:10:15,291 --> 00:10:16,992
She's probably illegal.
217
00:10:17,043 --> 00:10:19,360
Same reason she didn't
report the suicide attempt.
218
00:10:19,412 --> 00:10:21,163
I call 911.
219
00:10:21,214 --> 00:10:22,881
But when Miss Tanner woke up,
220
00:10:22,965 --> 00:10:24,032
she say she will fire me
221
00:10:24,100 --> 00:10:25,450
if I say anything about the gun.
222
00:10:25,518 --> 00:10:27,753
And if she whacks herself,
what happens to your job ?
223
00:10:30,539 --> 00:10:33,008
I think she's a very depressed person.
224
00:10:33,059 --> 00:10:34,142
Never goes out,
225
00:10:34,210 --> 00:10:35,977
doesn't have friends.
226
00:10:36,045 --> 00:10:38,263
She has all this money,
227
00:10:38,347 --> 00:10:39,681
but all she does is write.
228
00:10:39,732 --> 00:10:43,452
I need to see her latest manuscript.
229
00:10:43,519 --> 00:10:46,271
She always locks up
her writing in there.
230
00:10:46,355 --> 00:10:48,523
Has she ever complained
231
00:10:48,574 --> 00:10:51,610
about physical pain or stress ?
232
00:10:51,694 --> 00:10:52,711
Yes.
233
00:10:52,779 --> 00:10:55,914
Her back and her hands hurt a lot.
234
00:10:55,998 --> 00:10:57,632
A writer with back and hand pain.
235
00:10:57,700 --> 00:10:59,501
That's very helpful. Let's go.
236
00:10:59,568 --> 00:11:01,937
Sometimes I hear her cry at night.
237
00:11:02,004 --> 00:11:05,290
When she thinks nobody's listening.
238
00:11:05,374 --> 00:11:07,575
I should have done something.
239
00:11:07,627 --> 00:11:09,161
True.
240
00:11:09,228 --> 00:11:12,380
What are you doing ?
241
00:11:12,432 --> 00:11:14,433
Before there were hard drives,
242
00:11:14,500 --> 00:11:16,885
there were...
243
00:11:25,945 --> 00:11:27,646
How many of these does she eat a day ?
244
00:11:27,730 --> 00:11:28,647
Two for lunch.
245
00:11:28,731 --> 00:11:31,032
Sometimes three.
246
00:11:37,206 --> 00:11:39,491
Still no seizure activity.
247
00:11:39,575 --> 00:11:40,942
It's your turn...
248
00:11:44,163 --> 00:11:45,213
What the hell ?
249
00:11:45,281 --> 00:11:49,450
Close. House.
250
00:11:49,502 --> 00:11:50,919
She's fine.
251
00:11:50,970 --> 00:11:53,054
Both the E.E.G. and all
her vitals have been...
252
00:12:00,279 --> 00:12:01,313
you.
253
00:12:01,397 --> 00:12:02,814
What do you want ?
254
00:12:02,899 --> 00:12:06,434
You wet the bed.
255
00:12:06,486 --> 00:12:08,603
Just not sure how yet.
256
00:12:15,024 --> 00:12:19,478
Good morning, gentlemen.
257
00:12:19,562 --> 00:12:21,096
Well, if it's any consolation,
258
00:12:21,147 --> 00:12:23,765
I didn't get any sleep either.
259
00:12:23,816 --> 00:12:25,784
Unilateral hyperhidrosis.
260
00:12:25,852 --> 00:12:27,135
Interesting.
261
00:12:27,186 --> 00:12:28,704
She also admitted she
tried to kill herself,
262
00:12:28,771 --> 00:12:29,688
but won't tell us why.
263
00:12:29,772 --> 00:12:31,306
House seared her home,
264
00:12:31,374 --> 00:12:33,125
found she's been eating two
cans of tuna a day for years.
265
00:12:33,192 --> 00:12:34,660
Mercury poisoning ?
266
00:12:34,744 --> 00:12:35,744
Explains the seizures,
267
00:12:35,811 --> 00:12:37,112
hand and back pain,
268
00:12:37,163 --> 00:12:38,530
also the depression.
269
00:12:38,615 --> 00:12:40,465
Explains everything except
the fact that it's not.
270
00:12:40,533 --> 00:12:41,783
We got her urine and blood samples back.
271
00:12:41,834 --> 00:12:43,018
They're normal.
272
00:12:43,086 --> 00:12:44,336
If it's low level,
273
00:12:44,420 --> 00:12:45,671
it might not show up in a spot check.
274
00:12:45,755 --> 00:12:47,039
We need to run continuous
testing to find it.
275
00:12:47,123 --> 00:12:48,540
We can't. She wants a female doctor.
276
00:12:48,625 --> 00:12:50,509
She only asked for a
woman to waste time.
277
00:12:50,593 --> 00:12:54,096
She's cooperating just enough
to get through the psych hold.
278
00:12:54,163 --> 00:12:57,382
Put some lipstick on Chase
and start chelation therapy.
279
00:12:57,467 --> 00:12:59,251
Confirm with another urine test.
280
00:13:01,638 --> 00:13:02,554
Okay.
281
00:13:02,639 --> 00:13:04,389
I'll go talk to Cuddy.
282
00:13:04,474 --> 00:13:06,458
Maybe she'll let us borrow a dress too.
283
00:13:18,121 --> 00:13:20,222
Ahe... ahem.
284
00:13:20,289 --> 00:13:22,841
This would be me ignoring you.
285
00:13:22,925 --> 00:13:24,810
What if we got arrested last night ?
286
00:13:24,877 --> 00:13:26,595
And whatever happened to keeping
287
00:13:26,646 --> 00:13:28,613
our professional and
personal lives separate ?
288
00:13:28,681 --> 00:13:31,683
I'm not the one talking about
our relationship at work.
289
00:13:31,768 --> 00:13:33,735
What's behind your back ?
290
00:13:33,803 --> 00:13:36,905
Peace penguin.
291
00:13:36,972 --> 00:13:38,473
What room should I return it to ?
292
00:13:38,524 --> 00:13:39,775
243.
293
00:13:39,826 --> 00:13:41,109
I need some help with Alice Tanner.
294
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:42,911
She wants a vagina.
295
00:13:42,962 --> 00:13:45,464
I'm pretty attached to mine.
296
00:13:45,531 --> 00:13:48,300
I told you to hire a temporary
replacement for Thirteen
297
00:13:48,368 --> 00:13:49,384
two weeks ago.
298
00:13:49,452 --> 00:13:50,736
I've been busy. Doing what ?
299
00:13:50,803 --> 00:13:52,537
You.
300
00:13:52,605 --> 00:13:53,922
So you'll talk her out of it ?
301
00:13:53,973 --> 00:13:56,425
You'll hire a woman doctor ?
302
00:13:56,476 --> 00:13:57,642
You think we just sit around
303
00:13:57,727 --> 00:13:59,644
talking sports and belching and farting
304
00:13:59,729 --> 00:14:01,013
when the chicks aren't around ?
305
00:14:01,097 --> 00:14:02,064
By when ?
306
00:14:02,131 --> 00:14:03,081
Next week.
307
00:14:03,149 --> 00:14:05,133
Next week it is.
308
00:14:07,003 --> 00:14:08,253
What makes you think it's Mercury ?
309
00:14:08,321 --> 00:14:09,521
Your symptoms.
310
00:14:09,605 --> 00:14:11,656
Now I can perform the procedure yourself
311
00:14:11,741 --> 00:14:14,059
if you still prefer a woman doctor,
312
00:14:14,127 --> 00:14:16,144
but the team you have is our best.
313
00:14:16,212 --> 00:14:18,780
That's an interesting
perfume you're wearing.
314
00:14:18,831 --> 00:14:20,315
It was a gift.
315
00:14:20,366 --> 00:14:23,318
From Dr. House ?
316
00:14:23,369 --> 00:14:25,337
It was all over him last night.
317
00:14:25,405 --> 00:14:27,122
If you'd prefer another female doctor,
318
00:14:27,173 --> 00:14:28,840
I can arrange that as well.
319
00:14:28,908 --> 00:14:31,626
I also smelled it somewhere
else more recently.
320
00:14:31,694 --> 00:14:34,796
Faint, but unmistakable.
321
00:14:34,847 --> 00:14:36,548
You should have worn
322
00:14:36,616 --> 00:14:39,584
a different cardigan
this morning, Christina.
323
00:14:39,652 --> 00:14:42,771
Something you'd like to tell me, dear ?
324
00:14:42,838 --> 00:14:45,974
When I found you yesterday,
325
00:14:46,042 --> 00:14:48,610
I thought I was too late.
326
00:14:48,678 --> 00:14:52,397
I talked to them so I
could help you get better.
327
00:14:52,482 --> 00:14:54,716
I just don't want to
see you suffer anymore.
328
00:14:54,784 --> 00:14:56,768
That won't be a problem.
329
00:14:56,836 --> 00:14:58,904
You're fired.
330
00:14:58,988 --> 00:15:00,455
This woman cares about you.
331
00:15:00,523 --> 00:15:02,207
If it weren't for her...
332
00:15:02,275 --> 00:15:03,942
I wouldn't be here now, would I ?
333
00:15:04,010 --> 00:15:05,627
I should have done it yesterday.
334
00:15:05,695 --> 00:15:08,413
I understand that you're in pain,
335
00:15:08,498 --> 00:15:11,049
but lashing out isn't the answer.
336
00:15:11,134 --> 00:15:12,033
Treatment is.
337
00:15:12,085 --> 00:15:13,668
I agree.
338
00:15:13,719 --> 00:15:15,837
Send the men back.
339
00:15:15,888 --> 00:15:19,357
At least they're not a bunch
of dewy-eyed cry-babies.
340
00:15:21,644 --> 00:15:22,978
What's that ?
341
00:15:23,045 --> 00:15:27,799
It's the new Jack Cannon novel.
342
00:15:27,867 --> 00:15:29,017
Suggestions ?
343
00:15:29,068 --> 00:15:30,018
Yeah.
344
00:15:30,069 --> 00:15:31,019
Stop.
345
00:15:31,070 --> 00:15:32,404
It can't be done.
346
00:15:32,488 --> 00:15:35,941
People wonder why you've
never cured cancer.
347
00:15:36,025 --> 00:15:39,211
Did you get this before or
after your date with Cuddy ?
348
00:15:39,278 --> 00:15:41,913
Eh, probably would have
been a wiser choice.
349
00:15:41,998 --> 00:15:43,782
Huh.
350
00:15:43,866 --> 00:15:46,118
This is actually good, House.
351
00:15:46,202 --> 00:15:47,953
She's committing crimes.
352
00:15:48,037 --> 00:15:49,037
What does that tell you ?
353
00:15:49,088 --> 00:15:51,289
I'm a horrible influence.
354
00:15:51,357 --> 00:15:52,507
True.
355
00:15:52,575 --> 00:15:54,409
A horrible influence
she's reaching out to.
356
00:15:54,477 --> 00:15:56,161
She's looking for ways to connect.
357
00:15:56,229 --> 00:16:00,415
Sure, they're self-destructive,
juvenile, and insane,
358
00:16:00,466 --> 00:16:03,218
but so are you.
359
00:16:03,269 --> 00:16:05,303
You do have something in common.
360
00:16:05,388 --> 00:16:09,224
You're both trying to find
things you have in common.
361
00:16:11,110 --> 00:16:12,894
And not finding them.
362
00:16:16,232 --> 00:16:18,316
You don't look so hot.
363
00:16:18,401 --> 00:16:21,002
Want to talk about it ?
364
00:16:21,070 --> 00:16:22,888
Those days are over.
365
00:16:34,967 --> 00:16:36,001
Who were you talking to ?
366
00:16:36,085 --> 00:16:37,219
Myself.
367
00:16:37,286 --> 00:16:38,336
If you're seeing things,
368
00:16:38,421 --> 00:16:39,337
it could be another symptom.
369
00:16:39,405 --> 00:16:40,972
It's not.
370
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,175
It's only in my imagination.
371
00:16:43,259 --> 00:16:45,393
I make things up for a living.
372
00:16:48,314 --> 00:16:49,397
And talking to them ?
373
00:16:49,465 --> 00:16:52,100
It's a writer thing.
374
00:16:52,151 --> 00:16:54,152
We're also good at reading people.
375
00:16:54,220 --> 00:16:56,471
Like you, for instance.
376
00:16:56,522 --> 00:16:58,323
Recently divorced.
377
00:16:58,407 --> 00:17:00,192
You slept with a girl last night.
378
00:17:00,276 --> 00:17:02,043
Her place, not yours.
379
00:17:02,111 --> 00:17:04,579
You probably won't return her calls.
380
00:17:04,647 --> 00:17:07,499
That...
381
00:17:11,037 --> 00:17:12,621
How ?
382
00:17:12,672 --> 00:17:15,340
The tan line from your
former wedding ring.
383
00:17:15,424 --> 00:17:17,542
You stink of smoke,
384
00:17:17,627 --> 00:17:20,462
but no yellow on your fingers or teeth
385
00:17:20,513 --> 00:17:22,314
means she's the smoker.
386
00:17:22,381 --> 00:17:25,834
And you either didn't shower or change.
387
00:17:25,902 --> 00:17:29,938
Either way, her place.
388
00:17:30,005 --> 00:17:31,339
Do him.
389
00:17:31,390 --> 00:17:32,974
We're wasting time,
390
00:17:33,025 --> 00:17:34,943
which is her main goal here.
391
00:17:35,010 --> 00:17:36,344
Need your arm for this.
392
00:17:36,395 --> 00:17:38,296
You remind me of my ex-husband.
393
00:17:38,364 --> 00:17:41,733
A cute man, but problems
in the bedroom department.
394
00:17:45,321 --> 00:17:46,854
Not even close.
395
00:17:46,906 --> 00:17:48,290
The ones I caught him in.
396
00:17:48,357 --> 00:17:51,059
He cheated on me every chance he could.
397
00:17:51,127 --> 00:17:53,995
The first time with my best friend.
398
00:17:54,063 --> 00:17:55,029
The second...
399
00:17:55,081 --> 00:17:58,216
The bastard.
400
00:18:00,303 --> 00:18:02,137
BP and heart rate are spiking.
401
00:18:02,204 --> 00:18:04,589
Must be an allergic reaction
to the chelation agent.
402
00:18:04,674 --> 00:18:06,374
I didn't give it to her yet.
403
00:18:07,192 --> 00:18:09,459
Pain, seizures, hyperhidrosis,
404
00:18:09,491 --> 00:18:11,375
and sudden onset of
radically high blood pressure.
405
00:18:12,177 --> 00:18:14,228
Her continuous blood
and urine test came back.
406
00:18:14,313 --> 00:18:16,447
It's definitely not
Mercury poisoning. Clean.
407
00:18:16,515 --> 00:18:18,566
Could be hemolytic uremic syndrome.
408
00:18:18,650 --> 00:18:20,618
It's not. There weren't
any blood or protein markers
409
00:18:20,685 --> 00:18:21,969
in her urine, either.
410
00:18:22,037 --> 00:18:23,404
We also caught her talking to herself.
411
00:18:23,489 --> 00:18:24,855
She could be delusional.
412
00:18:24,907 --> 00:18:26,457
She's a writer and a recluse.
413
00:18:26,525 --> 00:18:27,858
I'd be more surprised if
she didn't talk to herself.
414
00:18:27,910 --> 00:18:29,043
You done playing with your ribbon ?
415
00:18:29,127 --> 00:18:30,912
What was she doing when it happened ?
416
00:18:30,996 --> 00:18:32,246
Sitting in bed.
417
00:18:32,331 --> 00:18:34,582
She claims it was only
in her imagination,
418
00:18:34,666 --> 00:18:35,550
but still.
419
00:18:35,634 --> 00:18:37,168
When her BP spiked ?
420
00:18:37,219 --> 00:18:39,203
Comparing Taub to her ex-husband.
421
00:18:39,254 --> 00:18:40,471
She really hated the guy.
422
00:18:40,539 --> 00:18:42,673
Her first symptom
423
00:18:42,724 --> 00:18:45,643
was when she had a gun to her head.
424
00:18:45,710 --> 00:18:49,380
Excess adrenaline could explain seizures
425
00:18:49,431 --> 00:18:51,399
and skyrocketing BP.
426
00:18:51,483 --> 00:18:53,150
A pheochromocytoma.
427
00:18:53,218 --> 00:18:54,986
Get an MRI and find it.
428
00:19:04,413 --> 00:19:06,664
Would you hold this ?
429
00:19:12,737 --> 00:19:14,922
I meant now.
430
00:19:20,429 --> 00:19:22,763
Have I mentioned I'm claustrophobic ?
431
00:19:22,848 --> 00:19:25,917
Have I mentioned we don't care ?
432
00:19:25,984 --> 00:19:27,435
What's wrong ?
433
00:19:27,519 --> 00:19:29,253
Nothing. Just a leg cramp.
434
00:19:33,559 --> 00:19:34,976
Get her out of here.
She's got metal in her leg.
435
00:19:40,215 --> 00:19:42,683
She has three screws in her right leg
436
00:19:42,751 --> 00:19:45,286
from a skiing accident
she didn't tell us about.
437
00:19:45,370 --> 00:19:47,371
The MRI's magnetic field
super heated the metal,
438
00:19:47,439 --> 00:19:48,739
causing third-degree burns.
439
00:19:48,790 --> 00:19:53,995
Skin ruptured from
internal heat pressure here.
440
00:19:54,079 --> 00:19:55,880
It's not our fault.
441
00:19:55,947 --> 00:19:57,081
She signed the consent forms,
442
00:19:57,132 --> 00:19:57,915
denied there was any metal...
443
00:19:57,966 --> 00:19:59,634
Normally I'd say it.
444
00:19:59,718 --> 00:20:04,121
Maybe this way it'll finally sink in.
445
00:20:04,172 --> 00:20:06,140
She wants to die.
446
00:20:06,224 --> 00:20:08,476
You cannot trust anything she says.
447
00:20:08,543 --> 00:20:09,877
Treating the soft tissue
injuries in her leg
448
00:20:09,945 --> 00:20:11,112
cost us most of the day.
449
00:20:11,179 --> 00:20:12,813
We also had to replace the screws.
450
00:20:12,898 --> 00:20:14,965
And finding a pheochromocytoma
451
00:20:15,017 --> 00:20:16,917
without using the mri
could take us a week.
452
00:20:16,985 --> 00:20:19,136
Longer, if she doesn't stop lying to us.
453
00:20:19,187 --> 00:20:21,072
Or we could figure out a way to find it
454
00:20:21,139 --> 00:20:24,575
in the 39 hours left on her psych hold.
455
00:20:24,643 --> 00:20:26,644
We need to make her cooperate.
456
00:20:26,695 --> 00:20:28,813
We have to offer her
something she wants.
457
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:33,167
She wants to kill herself, House.
458
00:20:33,251 --> 00:20:35,503
I can work with that.
459
00:20:45,180 --> 00:20:47,381
I want you to write more books.
460
00:20:47,449 --> 00:20:50,735
I'm done writing Jack
Cannon's adventures.
461
00:20:50,802 --> 00:20:52,186
And when I get out of here,
462
00:20:52,270 --> 00:20:55,022
I'll just be done.
463
00:20:55,107 --> 00:20:57,558
Now don't you say
that, you dirty birdie.
464
00:20:57,643 --> 00:20:59,176
You know, there are easier ways to go
465
00:20:59,227 --> 00:21:00,511
than shooting yourself in the head
466
00:21:00,562 --> 00:21:01,729
or tearing apart a limb.
467
00:21:01,813 --> 00:21:04,882
And this is one of them.
468
00:21:04,950 --> 00:21:07,652
The best part, you'll feel so good,
469
00:21:07,703 --> 00:21:10,488
you won't even notice you're dead.
470
00:21:10,539 --> 00:21:12,373
You expect me to believe
471
00:21:12,457 --> 00:21:14,809
you're going to help me kill myself ?
472
00:21:14,876 --> 00:21:15,876
You're the perceptive one.
473
00:21:15,961 --> 00:21:17,795
You tell me.
474
00:21:17,862 --> 00:21:19,030
Why ?
475
00:21:19,097 --> 00:21:20,581
We can't find your tumor in time
476
00:21:20,666 --> 00:21:23,918
without your cooperation.
477
00:21:24,002 --> 00:21:25,486
So I'm giving you a choice.
478
00:21:25,554 --> 00:21:27,455
Give us a chance to make you better,
479
00:21:27,522 --> 00:21:31,142
or stick this anywhere and push.
480
00:21:31,209 --> 00:21:33,728
Why do you care about me ?
481
00:21:33,795 --> 00:21:37,932
You think you know me
because you read my books ?
482
00:21:38,016 --> 00:21:39,567
No.
483
00:21:39,651 --> 00:21:42,687
I know pain.
484
00:21:42,754 --> 00:21:43,854
Think you can handle it,
485
00:21:43,905 --> 00:21:46,691
and one day you can't.
486
00:21:46,742 --> 00:21:48,526
When that happens,
487
00:21:48,593 --> 00:21:51,996
you either find reasons
to go on, or you don't.
488
00:21:52,063 --> 00:21:54,198
I'm...
489
00:21:54,266 --> 00:21:56,217
I'm all out of reasons.
490
00:21:56,284 --> 00:21:57,251
Now.
491
00:21:57,319 --> 00:21:59,170
When you're pain free,
492
00:21:59,237 --> 00:22:02,173
you're gonna want to live
and start writing again.
493
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,959
And if I'm wrong,
494
00:22:05,026 --> 00:22:08,846
got a backup plan to take home with you.
495
00:22:08,913 --> 00:22:11,599
Okay.
496
00:22:13,719 --> 00:22:15,586
Good choice.
497
00:22:15,637 --> 00:22:16,804
If I were you,
498
00:22:16,888 --> 00:22:18,856
I'd hide that if you want to keep it.
499
00:22:18,923 --> 00:22:20,408
I know the perfect place.
500
00:22:39,526 --> 00:22:40,426
Morning, sunshine.
501
00:22:40,493 --> 00:22:43,028
You're a real bastard.
502
00:22:43,096 --> 00:22:45,864
You were supposed to choose life.
503
00:22:45,932 --> 00:22:49,885
You're also an excellent liar.
504
00:22:49,953 --> 00:22:52,855
Wasn't lying about the cure.
505
00:22:52,922 --> 00:22:54,356
If we find and remove that pesky,
506
00:22:54,424 --> 00:22:57,359
adrenaline-secreting tumor,
507
00:22:57,427 --> 00:22:58,694
you'll get better.
508
00:22:58,762 --> 00:23:00,596
You better hurry.
509
00:23:00,664 --> 00:23:03,682
My lawyer will have me out
of here this time tomorrow.
510
00:23:03,750 --> 00:23:06,151
Yeah, about that,
511
00:23:06,219 --> 00:23:07,419
it seems that last night
512
00:23:07,487 --> 00:23:09,238
you found and self-administered
513
00:23:09,289 --> 00:23:12,141
what you thought was a
potentially lethal narcotic.
514
00:23:12,208 --> 00:23:13,592
Your psych hold has been extended
515
00:23:13,660 --> 00:23:15,644
an additional 24 hours.
516
00:23:15,712 --> 00:23:17,830
I know. Bummer, right ?
517
00:23:20,750 --> 00:23:25,004
You want to know
something about my book ?
518
00:23:25,088 --> 00:23:25,971
Sure.
519
00:23:26,039 --> 00:23:29,224
Jack Cannon dies.
520
00:23:29,292 --> 00:23:30,192
I know.
521
00:23:30,260 --> 00:23:35,197
Bummer, right ?
522
00:23:35,265 --> 00:23:37,966
We finished analyzing
thePETt scans from last night.
523
00:23:38,018 --> 00:23:39,234
There's no sign of a tumor.
524
00:23:39,302 --> 00:23:41,053
We sampled blood from
six different areas
525
00:23:41,121 --> 00:23:42,538
looking for any spikes in adrenaline.
526
00:23:42,605 --> 00:23:43,806
All of them were negative.
527
00:23:43,873 --> 00:23:45,074
If she told us her symptoms,
528
00:23:45,141 --> 00:23:46,842
where it hurts, when
the pain first started,
529
00:23:46,910 --> 00:23:49,194
we could at least focus
on a specific area.
530
00:23:49,279 --> 00:23:50,645
Or use them to rule areas out.
531
00:23:50,697 --> 00:23:51,914
She'll only lie.
532
00:23:51,981 --> 00:23:53,582
We're better off not
even talking to her.
533
00:23:53,650 --> 00:23:56,452
You think you can get her to
try to kill herself again ?
534
00:23:56,503 --> 00:23:58,470
We're gonna need more time.
535
00:23:58,538 --> 00:24:00,539
There might be a way to get her symptoms
536
00:24:00,623 --> 00:24:01,823
without asking her.
537
00:24:01,875 --> 00:24:04,176
If writers write what they know.
538
00:24:04,260 --> 00:24:06,428
I thought you said it
was about a boy Detective.
539
00:24:06,496 --> 00:24:09,048
And his mentor, Aunt Helen,
540
00:24:09,132 --> 00:24:13,369
who happens to be around
the same age as Alice.
541
00:24:13,436 --> 00:24:15,504
Answers could be in the book.
542
00:24:15,572 --> 00:24:19,992
Great. You finish reading
your typewriter ribbon yet ?
543
00:24:20,060 --> 00:24:22,027
Look for the tumor with the ultrasound.
544
00:24:25,482 --> 00:24:28,016
I drove across town to treat a ribbon ?
545
00:24:28,068 --> 00:24:29,068
That's why I prefer lying.
546
00:24:29,152 --> 00:24:31,286
It makes things easier.
547
00:24:31,354 --> 00:24:33,622
Whatever he has you doing, stop.
548
00:24:33,689 --> 00:24:34,573
You told him ?
549
00:24:34,657 --> 00:24:36,241
We do live together.
550
00:24:36,326 --> 00:24:38,827
I generally tell him when
I show up at his work.
551
00:24:38,878 --> 00:24:40,963
He told me it was a
matter of life and death.
552
00:24:41,030 --> 00:24:42,047
It is.
553
00:24:42,132 --> 00:24:44,049
Patient wants to kill herself.
554
00:24:44,134 --> 00:24:45,300
He's just trying to read a book,
555
00:24:45,368 --> 00:24:47,469
the latest Jack Cannon: Boy Detective.
556
00:24:47,537 --> 00:24:49,138
Alice Tanner is your patient ?
557
00:24:49,205 --> 00:24:50,389
You're a "fannon" too ?
558
00:24:50,457 --> 00:24:52,007
I'm team Deacon.
559
00:24:52,058 --> 00:24:53,592
Oh, come on.
560
00:24:53,676 --> 00:24:56,228
Why can't she love them both ?
561
00:24:56,312 --> 00:24:58,764
The typewriter keys should
have left impressions
562
00:24:58,832 --> 00:25:00,349
on these ribbon fibers.
563
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,518
They would also remove a layer of ink.
564
00:25:02,569 --> 00:25:06,188
It's just a question of
tweaking the software, really.
565
00:25:12,245 --> 00:25:14,613
Does Cuddy know you're
using the MRI for this ?
566
00:25:14,697 --> 00:25:16,665
Let's say yes.
567
00:25:22,172 --> 00:25:23,956
So do you think Jack finally
568
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,290
hooks up with Sarah in this one ?
569
00:25:25,375 --> 00:25:27,443
No. Debbie Wright is his true love.
570
00:25:27,510 --> 00:25:30,329
She's dead. Presumed !
571
00:25:30,396 --> 00:25:32,014
All we really know is...
572
00:25:32,081 --> 00:25:34,099
there are actual patients
waiting to use this machine.
573
00:25:40,390 --> 00:25:41,990
Congratulations.
574
00:25:42,058 --> 00:25:44,526
It's a book.
575
00:25:49,732 --> 00:25:52,067
Wilson just told me we're
going on a double date
576
00:25:52,118 --> 00:25:54,035
with him and Sam tonight.
577
00:25:54,087 --> 00:25:55,971
You don't like double dates ?
578
00:25:56,038 --> 00:25:57,873
I'd just like if you'd ask me first.
579
00:25:57,924 --> 00:25:59,424
You don't like surprises ?
580
00:25:59,509 --> 00:26:02,878
Is this Alice's book ?
581
00:26:02,929 --> 00:26:04,713
Sam reprogrammed the MRI
582
00:26:04,764 --> 00:26:07,182
to read Alice's typewriter ribbon.
583
00:26:07,250 --> 00:26:09,268
You used a $3 million
piece of hospital equipment
584
00:26:09,335 --> 00:26:10,819
so you could read a novel ?
585
00:26:10,887 --> 00:26:13,522
Cool, right ?
586
00:26:13,573 --> 00:26:15,991
Well, as your girlfriend, I'm impressed.
587
00:26:16,058 --> 00:26:17,910
As your boss, you're a jackass.
588
00:26:17,994 --> 00:26:19,895
Don't do it again.
589
00:26:19,963 --> 00:26:21,029
As your boyfriend, I thank you.
590
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,080
As your employee, I resent you,
591
00:26:22,165 --> 00:26:23,115
because I need this for my case.
592
00:26:23,199 --> 00:26:24,366
As your boss,
593
00:26:24,417 --> 00:26:27,536
you just got six more
clinic hours next week.
594
00:26:27,604 --> 00:26:29,738
So what's the plan for tonight ?
595
00:26:29,789 --> 00:26:31,590
Whatever you want. I don't care.
596
00:26:31,658 --> 00:26:33,008
Just pick something we'd both enjoy.
597
00:26:33,075 --> 00:26:34,459
Yeah ? And what would that be exactly ?
598
00:26:34,527 --> 00:26:35,661
I don't know. You know what I like.
599
00:26:35,728 --> 00:26:37,412
I got to get back to work.
600
00:26:43,703 --> 00:26:45,070
Found something.
601
00:26:45,138 --> 00:26:48,106
It's not a tumor.
602
00:26:48,191 --> 00:26:50,442
Whatever it is, it's
encased around her heart.
603
00:26:56,711 --> 00:26:58,395
She has a pericardial effusion.
604
00:26:58,396 --> 00:26:59,680
Which wasn't there last night
605
00:26:59,731 --> 00:27:00,298
when we did the PET scan.
606
00:27:00,306 --> 00:27:01,139
She's getting worse,
607
00:27:01,208 --> 00:27:02,925
and there's no sign
of a pheochromocytoma.
608
00:27:02,993 --> 00:27:04,660
Seizures, sweating,
rapid blood pressure,
609
00:27:04,711 --> 00:27:06,161
and an effusion point
to something viral.
610
00:27:06,213 --> 00:27:08,848
Or maybe a cancer.
611
00:27:08,916 --> 00:27:10,266
We could use your opinion, House,
612
00:27:10,334 --> 00:27:14,336
or at least your attention.
613
00:27:14,388 --> 00:27:17,890
Jack Cannon is not dead.
614
00:27:17,975 --> 00:27:19,475
It's worse.
615
00:27:19,526 --> 00:27:22,778
Ten books leading up to
a final confrontation.
616
00:27:22,846 --> 00:27:24,947
She ends it on a cliffhanger.
617
00:27:25,015 --> 00:27:26,032
I mean, who does that ?
618
00:27:26,116 --> 00:27:27,967
People who want to sell you the 11th.
619
00:27:28,035 --> 00:27:29,068
She was gonna kill herself.
620
00:27:29,136 --> 00:27:30,736
This is the final Jack Cannon.
621
00:27:30,821 --> 00:27:32,455
Nothing gets resolved.
622
00:27:32,522 --> 00:27:34,857
Who's his father ? Who
killed his brother ?
623
00:27:34,908 --> 00:27:37,192
How'd he get that
damn scar on his cheek,
624
00:27:37,244 --> 00:27:39,662
and why is he obsessed with yo-yos ?
625
00:27:39,713 --> 00:27:41,781
Is there anything in it
that pertains to our case ?
626
00:27:41,848 --> 00:27:43,883
Yeah.
627
00:27:43,967 --> 00:27:47,053
I know why she wanted to kill herself.
628
00:27:47,137 --> 00:27:50,973
His mentor, Helen Rutherford,
629
00:27:51,041 --> 00:27:53,342
has contracted a serious illness
630
00:27:53,393 --> 00:27:56,095
which consists of joint paint,
631
00:27:56,163 --> 00:27:58,848
fatigue, sensitivity to light,
632
00:27:58,915 --> 00:28:01,217
and depression.
633
00:28:01,285 --> 00:28:04,219
How do we know this mentor
character's really Alice ?
634
00:28:04,271 --> 00:28:07,106
Helen dies halfway through the book.
635
00:28:07,190 --> 00:28:09,558
Shoots herself in the head...
636
00:28:09,609 --> 00:28:12,028
To save Jack from
having to care for her.
637
00:28:12,079 --> 00:28:13,863
If we add those to
the symptoms we've seen
638
00:28:13,914 --> 00:28:16,499
and the pericardial
effusion... It's lupus.
639
00:28:18,001 --> 00:28:19,552
Can't be lupus.
640
00:28:19,619 --> 00:28:21,504
Why not ?
641
00:28:21,571 --> 00:28:23,072
It isn't curable.
642
00:28:23,140 --> 00:28:25,091
That's... Not an answer.
643
00:28:25,175 --> 00:28:26,659
It's treatable.
644
00:28:26,727 --> 00:28:28,044
We'll start testing to see which drugs
645
00:28:28,111 --> 00:28:29,428
she best responds to.
646
00:28:29,513 --> 00:28:31,413
We're not gonna be able
to take her pain away.
647
00:28:31,465 --> 00:28:33,049
She's still gonna kill herself
648
00:28:33,100 --> 00:28:35,685
as soon as she gets released tomorrow.
649
00:28:38,254 --> 00:28:40,539
Can't let Jack Cannon end this way.
650
00:28:40,607 --> 00:28:43,059
We're treating a patient... Not a book.
651
00:28:47,263 --> 00:28:50,082
Retest to confirm.
652
00:28:57,507 --> 00:29:00,309
Go-carts ? Really ?
653
00:29:00,377 --> 00:29:02,211
Wilson, party of four.
You guys are up next.
654
00:29:02,279 --> 00:29:03,929
Your mom said you loved go-carts.
655
00:29:04,014 --> 00:29:06,982
You called my mother.
656
00:29:07,050 --> 00:29:08,734
I loved them when I was 12.
657
00:29:08,819 --> 00:29:10,686
This is so cool !
658
00:29:10,737 --> 00:29:12,554
I haven't done this since I was 12 !
659
00:29:12,606 --> 00:29:15,608
Winner picks the restaurant.
660
00:29:15,692 --> 00:29:19,328
I have a very bad feeling about this.
661
00:29:19,396 --> 00:29:21,414
Are we ready, racers ?
662
00:29:26,636 --> 00:29:28,170
On your marks,
663
00:29:28,221 --> 00:29:29,872
get set...
664
00:29:29,923 --> 00:29:31,891
And go away.
665
00:29:37,397 --> 00:29:39,214
Hey ! Watch it !
666
00:29:41,718 --> 00:29:43,185
You having fun ?
667
00:29:43,236 --> 00:29:45,354
You know who wins these races ?
668
00:29:45,405 --> 00:29:47,907
The person who weighs less !
669
00:29:50,944 --> 00:29:53,612
My parents never let
me drive one of these !
670
00:29:53,697 --> 00:29:55,364
Yeah ! I can tell !
671
00:29:57,451 --> 00:29:58,784
Oh, my God !
672
00:29:58,869 --> 00:29:59,919
Oh !
673
00:30:04,574 --> 00:30:05,541
Oh !
674
00:30:09,379 --> 00:30:10,379
Whoa.
675
00:30:12,048 --> 00:30:14,266
What is her problem ?
676
00:30:14,351 --> 00:30:15,718
She hates jews !
677
00:30:17,020 --> 00:30:19,588
Never... Again.
678
00:30:37,574 --> 00:30:38,958
That a girl !
679
00:30:48,668 --> 00:30:50,970
Ohh... Uh...
680
00:30:54,457 --> 00:30:56,091
Hoo hoo hah hah hah !
681
00:31:10,974 --> 00:31:12,408
See you at the finish line !
682
00:31:12,475 --> 00:31:13,442
Oh, yeah ?
683
00:31:44,641 --> 00:31:46,141
Yes !
684
00:31:48,895 --> 00:31:50,196
Hey !
685
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,014
You're banned for life, mister !
686
00:31:52,065 --> 00:31:54,867
Your Fun Stop privileges
are officially revoked !
687
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,955
You, too, blondie !
All of you... get out !
688
00:32:00,023 --> 00:32:02,041
I avenged my Lady.
689
00:32:02,125 --> 00:32:03,959
Seatbelt nearly broke my neck.
690
00:32:04,027 --> 00:32:05,411
I'm done for the night.
691
00:32:05,495 --> 00:32:08,130
It's not my fault Wilson's
attracted to psychos.
692
00:32:08,197 --> 00:32:09,698
You picked the place.
693
00:32:11,701 --> 00:32:13,886
That's just the pain talking.
694
00:32:19,059 --> 00:32:21,227
Oh... Wow.
695
00:32:30,887 --> 00:32:32,404
It was a car crash.
696
00:32:32,489 --> 00:32:33,839
Not a skiing accident.
697
00:32:33,907 --> 00:32:34,840
What ?
698
00:32:34,908 --> 00:32:36,242
Screws in your leg.
699
00:32:36,326 --> 00:32:38,727
Ya got me.
700
00:32:38,795 --> 00:32:40,395
I'll be going back to sleep now.
701
00:32:40,447 --> 00:32:42,748
You damaged your thyroid
gland in the crash
702
00:32:42,816 --> 00:32:45,084
when the shoulder strap
cut into your neck.
703
00:32:45,151 --> 00:32:46,969
You don't have lupus.
704
00:32:47,037 --> 00:32:48,454
What you have is curable.
705
00:32:48,538 --> 00:32:49,905
Go away.
706
00:32:52,259 --> 00:32:53,959
I read your book.
707
00:32:54,044 --> 00:32:55,961
Sucks, by the way.
708
00:32:56,046 --> 00:32:58,764
Nice try, but impossible.
709
00:32:58,848 --> 00:33:01,550
Helen Rutherford kills herself
710
00:33:01,601 --> 00:33:03,218
because she feels useless
711
00:33:03,270 --> 00:33:06,355
and doesn't want to be a burd...
712
00:33:06,422 --> 00:33:08,057
just like you do now.
713
00:33:08,108 --> 00:33:10,225
You have hypothyroidism.
714
00:33:10,293 --> 00:33:12,278
That's why you feel
so tired and worn out.
715
00:33:12,345 --> 00:33:14,863
With medication, you'll
feel 20 years younger.
716
00:33:14,931 --> 00:33:16,115
Or whatever age you were
717
00:33:16,199 --> 00:33:17,733
the last time you didn't
want to kill yourself.
718
00:33:17,784 --> 00:33:19,935
How did you... you can finish
the story the right way...
719
00:33:19,986 --> 00:33:21,654
The way Jack Cannon deserves.
720
00:33:21,738 --> 00:33:24,623
You think you know what Jack deserves ?
721
00:33:24,708 --> 00:33:26,659
I know that he deserves
better than what you gave him.
722
00:33:26,743 --> 00:33:28,961
You don't know anything about him !
723
00:33:29,045 --> 00:33:30,162
Why can't you just leave me...
724
00:33:38,088 --> 00:33:39,588
what did you do to me ?
725
00:33:39,639 --> 00:33:41,724
I can't move.
726
00:33:41,791 --> 00:33:44,143
I can't move anything.
727
00:33:49,063 --> 00:33:51,748
How can I be right and wrong ?
728
00:33:51,816 --> 00:33:53,284
I deduced the car accident
729
00:33:53,306 --> 00:33:55,023
because thyroid fit the symptoms.
730
00:33:56,248 --> 00:33:59,150
But a damaged thyroid
wouldn't explain the paralysis.
731
00:33:59,218 --> 00:34:00,685
How can I be wrong about the thyroid
732
00:34:00,769 --> 00:34:02,136
but right about the accident ?
733
00:34:02,187 --> 00:34:03,721
What if you're not ?
734
00:34:03,789 --> 00:34:05,807
I like the way you think, kid.
735
00:34:05,874 --> 00:34:07,542
At least not completely.
736
00:34:07,610 --> 00:34:09,444
Post traumatic
737
00:34:09,495 --> 00:34:11,746
syringomyelia from a
15-year-old car crash.
738
00:34:11,814 --> 00:34:13,881
Slowly growing over the years,
739
00:34:13,949 --> 00:34:15,533
pressing against her spinal column.
740
00:34:15,601 --> 00:34:18,269
Causes pain, fluctuating
blood pressure, seizures.
741
00:34:18,337 --> 00:34:19,537
And if untreated,
742
00:34:19,605 --> 00:34:21,272
eventually leads to paralysis and death.
743
00:34:21,340 --> 00:34:23,491
We find it and remove it.
744
00:34:23,559 --> 00:34:25,093
She should be able to
regain full function.
745
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:26,994
If we can get her medical
records from back then,
746
00:34:27,046 --> 00:34:29,397
we can use them to
pinpoint the location.
747
00:34:29,465 --> 00:34:30,998
Do it.
748
00:34:31,050 --> 00:34:33,384
We're dead on our feet.
749
00:34:33,469 --> 00:34:35,353
I've barely slept in four days.
750
00:34:35,437 --> 00:34:36,804
Aw... That's sad.
751
00:34:36,855 --> 00:34:38,506
You know what's even sadder ?
752
00:34:38,557 --> 00:34:40,475
Thirteen was the only man on my team.
753
00:34:40,526 --> 00:34:41,809
Yeah, it'd be nice if you hurry up
754
00:34:41,860 --> 00:34:44,012
and hire someone to fill her spot.
755
00:34:44,079 --> 00:34:45,747
Do it.
756
00:34:45,814 --> 00:34:47,949
Cuddy wants it to be a girl.
757
00:34:48,016 --> 00:34:49,867
There are a couple of people...
758
00:34:49,952 --> 00:34:51,219
I was talking to Chase.
759
00:34:51,286 --> 00:34:53,755
I was just looking at
you to screw with you.
760
00:35:02,097 --> 00:35:04,632
I'm meditating.
761
00:35:04,700 --> 00:35:06,934
From where we're standing,
it looked like sleeping.
762
00:35:07,002 --> 00:35:09,170
We can't find her old medical records.
763
00:35:09,221 --> 00:35:10,521
You woke me up for that ?
764
00:35:10,589 --> 00:35:12,757
We woke you up because
it doesn't matter.
765
00:35:12,825 --> 00:35:14,926
Alice is refusing any more treatment.
766
00:35:15,010 --> 00:35:16,144
She doesn't want the surgery.
767
00:35:16,211 --> 00:35:18,012
She kicked us out.
768
00:35:20,549 --> 00:35:22,350
Why would she lie about the accident ?
769
00:35:22,418 --> 00:35:24,018
Everybody lies.
770
00:35:24,086 --> 00:35:27,188
Everybody has a reason.
771
00:35:32,894 --> 00:35:34,629
I know.
772
00:35:34,697 --> 00:35:36,914
Alice is refusing surgery.
773
00:35:36,999 --> 00:35:38,750
She'll be dead in a few days without it.
774
00:35:38,834 --> 00:35:40,251
Which is why I've spent
the last four hours
775
00:35:40,335 --> 00:35:44,122
trying to find a legal way to
do it without her permission.
776
00:35:44,206 --> 00:35:47,041
Unsuccessfully. I'm sorry.
777
00:35:47,092 --> 00:35:49,877
As your boyfriend, I'm
grateful for the effort.
778
00:35:49,928 --> 00:35:51,379
As your employee,
779
00:35:51,430 --> 00:35:52,964
I'm disappointed at
your ineffectiveness.
780
00:35:56,635 --> 00:35:59,237
Why would she not tell us
about the pins in her leg ?
781
00:35:59,304 --> 00:36:02,023
'Cause she wants to die.
782
00:36:02,090 --> 00:36:03,474
By having her leg ripped off ?
783
00:36:03,559 --> 00:36:06,477
She wants to punish herself...
784
00:36:06,562 --> 00:36:08,796
For something that happened
before she was famous,
785
00:36:08,864 --> 00:36:10,531
before she even started to write.
786
00:36:10,599 --> 00:36:12,383
I think the answer's
787
00:36:12,451 --> 00:36:13,785
in her old medical records.
788
00:36:13,852 --> 00:36:16,904
But dopey, sleazy, and
uptighty can't find them.
789
00:36:16,955 --> 00:36:18,990
Maybe Alice Tanner's just her pen name.
790
00:36:22,211 --> 00:36:25,012
Your boyfriend is an idiot.
791
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,165
I'll contact the
national records archive
792
00:36:27,249 --> 00:36:28,833
and run the type of screws in her leg
793
00:36:28,917 --> 00:36:32,537
against blood type, age,
and anything else I think of.
794
00:36:32,604 --> 00:36:34,155
Her first name could be Helen.
795
00:36:34,223 --> 00:36:36,174
Even better.
796
00:36:39,561 --> 00:36:41,262
Don't bother to get up.
797
00:36:41,330 --> 00:36:44,015
You know, the way you write Jack
798
00:36:44,082 --> 00:36:47,151
always made him feel real to me.
799
00:36:47,236 --> 00:36:48,436
Now I know why.
800
00:36:50,656 --> 00:36:53,424
Because I'm a good writer.
801
00:36:53,492 --> 00:36:56,527
He's cool, but he's awkward.
802
00:36:56,612 --> 00:36:58,646
He's brilliant. He makes mistakes.
803
00:36:58,697 --> 00:37:02,166
He's funny, but sometimes
he takes it too far.
804
00:37:02,234 --> 00:37:04,135
Sounds like a great kid.
805
00:37:04,203 --> 00:37:06,220
Please.
806
00:37:06,288 --> 00:37:08,105
Just leave me alone.
807
00:37:08,173 --> 00:37:10,958
You weren't alone in the car crash.
808
00:37:11,026 --> 00:37:14,579
Your son was with you, Helen.
809
00:37:22,838 --> 00:37:25,940
The books are your way
of keeping him alive.
810
00:37:29,511 --> 00:37:32,814
Why can't you just let me die in peace ?
811
00:37:32,881 --> 00:37:35,066
You haven't been at
peace since it happened.
812
00:37:41,924 --> 00:37:43,474
I killed him.
813
00:37:43,542 --> 00:37:45,860
No, you didn't.
814
00:37:45,928 --> 00:37:48,796
I let him drive.
815
00:37:48,864 --> 00:37:51,632
He only had a learner's permit.
816
00:37:51,700 --> 00:37:53,985
It was raining.
817
00:37:54,052 --> 00:37:56,203
I deserve this.
818
00:37:56,255 --> 00:37:58,506
No, you don't.
819
00:38:02,144 --> 00:38:05,313
He could always get me
to do what he wanted.
820
00:38:07,065 --> 00:38:09,867
He's always been my muse.
821
00:38:09,935 --> 00:38:11,602
Well, that may be true,
822
00:38:11,687 --> 00:38:13,220
but I've been reviewing
823
00:38:13,272 --> 00:38:16,357
your muse's autopsy results.
824
00:38:16,408 --> 00:38:18,593
It wasn't the crash that killed him.
825
00:38:18,660 --> 00:38:21,162
Your son had a brain aneurism.
826
00:38:21,229 --> 00:38:23,514
That's why he crashed.
827
00:38:23,582 --> 00:38:25,566
He was dead before the impact.
828
00:38:25,634 --> 00:38:27,702
There was nothing you
could do to save him.
829
00:38:27,769 --> 00:38:29,654
They would have told me.
830
00:38:29,721 --> 00:38:31,038
They had no reason to dig any deeper.
831
00:38:31,089 --> 00:38:33,407
It was a car accident. I did.
832
00:38:33,458 --> 00:38:35,960
It's easy to miss.
833
00:38:36,044 --> 00:38:38,713
But you can see the blood buildup here.
834
00:38:38,764 --> 00:38:40,798
Your son would have died that day
835
00:38:40,883 --> 00:38:43,584
on a bus, in school,
836
00:38:43,635 --> 00:38:46,003
sitting on his bed.
837
00:38:46,071 --> 00:38:49,256
The only thing the
crash is killing is you.
838
00:38:49,308 --> 00:38:52,677
We need to repair that
syrinx in your neck.
839
00:38:55,731 --> 00:38:58,149
He was my world.
840
00:38:58,233 --> 00:39:01,652
Writing...
841
00:39:01,720 --> 00:39:04,071
I could feel him with me.
842
00:39:08,276 --> 00:39:10,811
It wasn't my fault, mom.
843
00:39:13,548 --> 00:39:16,133
And it wasn't mine.
844
00:39:36,521 --> 00:39:38,773
Her son didn't have a brain aneurism.
845
00:39:38,824 --> 00:39:40,841
Nope.
846
00:39:40,909 --> 00:39:43,878
She shouldn't have let
him drive in the rain.
847
00:39:43,946 --> 00:39:46,631
Jack was never very coordinated.
848
00:39:46,698 --> 00:39:48,215
As your boss,
849
00:39:48,266 --> 00:39:51,302
I am opposed to you lying to a patient.
850
00:39:51,386 --> 00:39:53,253
As your girlfriend, I'm glad you care.
851
00:39:53,305 --> 00:39:55,840
I don't.
852
00:39:55,907 --> 00:39:57,808
I just wanted to save Jack Cannon.
853
00:39:57,893 --> 00:40:01,228
Well, I can see why you like him.
854
00:40:01,279 --> 00:40:04,264
I started reading one
of the books you gave me.
855
00:40:04,316 --> 00:40:06,400
I find that very hard to believe.
856
00:40:06,451 --> 00:40:07,585
Why ?
857
00:40:07,653 --> 00:40:09,203
Because I can't like
something you like ?
858
00:40:09,270 --> 00:40:11,572
We couldn't possibly
have something in common ?
859
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,908
Because I lied about
giving you the books.
860
00:40:13,959 --> 00:40:14,992
Oh. Oh.
861
00:40:17,212 --> 00:40:18,846
Wilson told you. Yeah.
862
00:40:18,914 --> 00:40:20,798
He's such a gossip.
863
00:40:20,882 --> 00:40:23,017
I'm not gonna dump you
because we like different food
864
00:40:23,084 --> 00:40:24,735
or books or music.
865
00:40:24,803 --> 00:40:26,303
On the other hand,
866
00:40:26,371 --> 00:40:28,756
I might dump you if you don't talk to me
867
00:40:28,807 --> 00:40:30,858
when you have a problem
with our relationship.
868
00:40:30,925 --> 00:40:32,710
I know you believe that now...
869
00:40:32,778 --> 00:40:34,428
But the fact is...
870
00:40:34,479 --> 00:40:35,763
who cares about common ?
871
00:40:35,814 --> 00:40:37,748
Common is boring.
872
00:40:37,816 --> 00:40:40,434
It's... Common !
873
00:40:40,485 --> 00:40:44,321
I like being with you.
You make me better.
874
00:40:44,406 --> 00:40:47,108
Hopefully, I make you better.
875
00:40:47,175 --> 00:40:49,510
What we have is...
876
00:40:49,578 --> 00:40:51,796
Uncommon.
877
00:40:54,683 --> 00:40:57,368
And I've never been happier.
878
00:41:11,066 --> 00:41:13,967
Mind giving us a moment
alone, Christina ?
879
00:41:21,309 --> 00:41:23,828
I'd like to thank you.
880
00:41:23,895 --> 00:41:25,913
Great.
881
00:41:25,981 --> 00:41:28,349
You can dedicate the
next Jack Cannon to me.
882
00:41:28,417 --> 00:41:30,117
I can't.
883
00:41:30,185 --> 00:41:32,219
Are you still in pain ? No.
884
00:41:32,287 --> 00:41:35,106
You did everything you said, and more.
885
00:41:35,173 --> 00:41:37,341
I can finally move on.
886
00:41:37,409 --> 00:41:39,243
Thank you.
887
00:41:39,311 --> 00:41:40,745
Move on where ?
888
00:41:42,297 --> 00:41:45,633
I want to write books for adults.
889
00:41:45,700 --> 00:41:47,418
What about Jack ?
890
00:41:47,486 --> 00:41:50,154
Your last book didn't answer anything.
891
00:41:50,222 --> 00:41:53,474
The way I ended Jack's story is perfect.
892
00:41:53,542 --> 00:41:55,826
Each reader can decide
893
00:41:55,894 --> 00:41:58,846
what fate they want for him themselves.
894
00:41:58,897 --> 00:42:00,614
You... but that's stupid !
895
00:42:00,682 --> 00:42:02,366
That doesn't make any sense !
896
00:42:02,451 --> 00:42:05,853
How many answers do
you get in real life ?
897
00:42:05,921 --> 00:42:07,421
This is a book.
898
00:42:07,489 --> 00:42:09,874
Books have beginnings,
middles, and ends.
899
00:42:09,941 --> 00:42:11,325
You can't just leave
it on a cliffhanger...
900
00:42:11,376 --> 00:42:12,359
who does that ?
901
00:42:12,410 --> 00:42:15,279
I'm sorry. His story's done.
902
00:42:17,482 --> 00:42:20,718
There's really nothing you
can say to change my mind.
903
00:42:22,921 --> 00:42:25,539
Your son...
904
00:42:33,381 --> 00:42:36,250
Was very lucky to
have you as his mother.
905
00:42:47,496 --> 00:42:49,830
That was... oh, shut up.
