00:07:15,518 --> 00:07:16,936
There's nothing missing!

177
00:07:17,019 --> 00:07:20,857
Sorry, I didn't catch
that last part.

178
00:07:20,940 --> 00:07:21,983
[revs engine]

179
00:07:22,066 --> 00:07:27,447
[drowns out Foreman]

180
00:07:27,530 --> 00:07:29,615
There's nothing else
we can do.

181
00:07:29,699 --> 00:07:32,034
You check
the police report?

182
00:07:32,118 --> 00:07:33,161
On what?

183
00:07:33,244 --> 00:07:34,829
On his mom's car accident.

184
00:07:34,912 --> 00:07:36,497
It was 15 years ago.
The kid wasn't even in the car.

185
00:07:36,581 --> 00:07:39,167
She veered off a straight,
dry road in broad daylight.

186
00:07:39,250 --> 00:07:40,293
<i>That doesn't seem odd</i>
<i>to you?</i>

187
00:07:40,376 --> 00:07:41,586
She probably
got distracted

188
00:07:41,669 --> 00:07:42,753
changing radio stations
or something.

189
00:07:42,837 --> 00:07:43,880
That's what
the police thought.

190
00:07:43,963 --> 00:07:45,715
Of course they didn't know

191
00:07:45,798 --> 00:07:47,467
that <i>she has a family member</i>
<i>who is frequently incapacitated</i>

192
00:07:47,550 --> 00:07:49,427
by shock-like sensations.

193
00:07:49,510 --> 00:07:51,095
A genetic component
seems unlikely.

194
00:07:51,179 --> 00:07:52,763
But it's interesting.

195
00:07:52,847 --> 00:07:55,183
A type two neurofibromatosis
could cause the shock.

196
00:07:55,266 --> 00:07:56,309
You knew this was missing?

197
00:07:56,392 --> 00:07:58,060
I knew something
was missing.

198
00:07:58,144 --> 00:07:59,562
Maybe this.
Maybe something else.

199
00:07:59,645 --> 00:08:02,356
Get a DNA analysis of the
long arm of chromosome 22.

200
00:08:07,904 --> 00:08:09,322
You'd rather have dinner
with your wife?

201
00:08:09,405 --> 00:08:13,743
Yes, I would...
if she were speaking to me.

202
00:08:13,826 --> 00:08:15,036
Unlike her,

203
00:08:15,119 --> 00:08:16,996
I could make it worth
your while.

204
00:08:17,079 --> 00:08:19,874
Fine.

205
00:08:19,957 --> 00:08:21,918
Should I drive?

206
00:08:22,001 --> 00:08:24,629
Uh, no.

207
00:08:24,712 --> 00:08:27,840
And I'm not letting you in my
car until I see your wallet.

208
00:08:29,467 --> 00:08:32,887
NF2, it's
an inherited disease.

209
00:08:32,970 --> 00:08:35,556
<i>It could cause abnormal growths</i>
<i>on the cranial nerves.</i>

210
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,351
It would explain the shocks
and other symptoms.

211
00:08:38,434 --> 00:08:40,436
DNA analysis will show
whether your son

212
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,313
<i>has the specific</i>
<i>chromosome mutation</i>

213
00:08:42,396 --> 00:08:43,856
<i>which causes the disease.</i>

214
00:08:43,940 --> 00:08:45,358
But if it's inherited,
that means someone else

215
00:08:45,441 --> 00:08:47,068
<i>in our family</i>
<i>would have it.</i>

216
00:08:47,151 --> 00:08:48,945
We think your wife
may have had it.

217
00:08:49,028 --> 00:08:50,863
No, she never had any
sort of health problems.

218
00:08:50,947 --> 00:08:52,532
No odd-looking freckles?
Nodules in the iris?

219
00:08:52,615 --> 00:08:53,866
<i>(Ken)</i>
<i>Nothing.</i>

220
00:08:53,950 --> 00:08:56,202
Why would you think
she was sick?

221
00:08:56,285 --> 00:08:57,870
We think it may have been
what caused her car accident.

222
00:08:57,954 --> 00:08:59,372
Wait, what do you mean?

223
00:08:59,455 --> 00:09:01,165
My mom's car was hit
by a drunk driver.

224
00:09:01,249 --> 00:09:05,211
That's not what
the police report indicated.

225
00:09:05,294 --> 00:09:08,381
You must have gotten
the wrong report.

226
00:09:08,464 --> 00:09:11,384
No...
they didn't.

227
00:09:17,473 --> 00:09:21,602
When you started driving,
I, um...

228
00:09:21,686 --> 00:09:24,814
You lied about how Mom died?

229
00:09:24,897 --> 00:09:27,608
<i>(Ken)</i>
<i>I figured if her death could</i>
<i>somehow mean something--</i>

230
00:09:27,692 --> 00:09:29,068
How's lying about it
mean something?

231
00:09:29,151 --> 00:09:31,654
<i>How could you use her</i>
<i>like that, Dad?</i>

232
00:09:31,737 --> 00:09:33,072
Her death?

233
00:09:33,155 --> 00:09:34,448
I was just trying
to protect you.

234
00:09:34,532 --> 00:09:35,575
What else isn't true?

235
00:09:35,658 --> 00:09:37,076
<i>She wasn't a teacher.</i>

236
00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:38,536
<i>You just wanted me to read?</i>

237
00:09:38,619 --> 00:09:39,662
What's that smell?

238
00:09:39,745 --> 00:09:42,456
I don't smell...

239
00:09:46,002 --> 00:09:49,213
We're gonna need a nurse.
What the hell?

240
00:09:49,297 --> 00:09:51,549
It's okay.
We'll take care of it.

241
00:09:51,632 --> 00:09:52,758
You didn't feel anything?

242
00:09:52,842 --> 00:09:54,260
No.

243
00:09:56,971 --> 00:09:59,015
You feel that?
Yeah.

244
00:09:59,098 --> 00:10:01,392
But you didn't feel
any of this?

245
00:10:01,475 --> 00:10:02,768
No.

246
00:10:13,446 --> 00:10:16,949
Sphincter paralysis plus shocks
equals Miller Fisher Syndrome.

247
00:10:17,033 --> 00:10:19,243
Not if you add the stool sample,
which is negative for C.jejuni.

248
00:10:19,327 --> 00:10:22,913
He lied to his son
about how his mom died?

249
00:10:22,997 --> 00:10:24,665
<i>(Cameron)</i>
<i>He was just protecting him.</i>

250
00:10:24,749 --> 00:10:26,917
Manipulating him.
That's what parents do.

251
00:10:27,001 --> 00:10:28,628
They lie to us
because they love us.

252
00:10:28,711 --> 00:10:29,754
Who's getting teary?

253
00:10:29,837 --> 00:10:31,505
Mom's death is irrelevant.

254
00:10:31,589 --> 00:10:34,884
DNA revealed no NF2 markers
or any other inherited disease.

255
00:10:34,967 --> 00:10:36,761
Apparently, she really did
fall asleep at the wheel.

256
00:10:36,844 --> 00:10:40,473
So what exactly
are we talking about here?

257
00:10:40,556 --> 00:10:42,725
A little peeker
or did the prairie dog

258
00:10:42,808 --> 00:10:43,851
actually come out to play?

259
00:10:43,934 --> 00:10:45,019
Excuse me?

260
00:10:45,102 --> 00:10:47,521
Are we talking explosive?

261
00:10:47,605 --> 00:10:49,440
The hemacult
was negative for blood.

262
00:10:49,523 --> 00:10:53,152
<i>And I wouldn't say</i>
<i>he actually exploded.</i>

263
00:10:53,235 --> 00:10:54,737
More like gushed.

264
00:10:54,820 --> 00:10:57,448
Good.
We're getting somewhere.

265
00:10:57,531 --> 00:10:58,783
Yeah?
Where?

266
00:10:58,866 --> 00:11:00,409
I have no idea.

267
00:11:00,493 --> 00:11:02,912
Of course.
Love the riddles.

268
00:11:02,995 --> 00:11:04,538
<i>(House)</i>
<i>Hi, Mom.</i>

269
00:11:04,622 --> 00:11:06,791
Look, I have a business dinner
on Thursday night.

270
00:11:06,874 --> 00:11:08,542
<i>I can't get out of.</i>

271
00:11:08,626 --> 00:11:11,587
I know.
I really wanted to see you too.

272
00:11:11,671 --> 00:11:16,967
Actually, can I call you back?
I'm in a meeting right now.

273
00:11:17,051 --> 00:11:19,512
Okay, thanks.

274
00:11:19,595 --> 00:11:21,097
Who was that?

275
00:11:21,180 --> 00:11:23,349
Angelina Jolie.
I call her mom.

276
00:11:23,432 --> 00:11:24,767
Who thinks that's sexy?

277
00:11:24,850 --> 00:11:28,312
So explosive or gushing?

278
00:11:28,396 --> 00:11:29,647
She never calls here.
Is everything okay?

279
00:11:29,730 --> 00:11:32,733
Great.
Yeah.

280
00:11:32,817 --> 00:11:35,653
My dad's taking her to Europe.

281
00:11:35,736 --> 00:11:38,280
They got a nine-hour layover
in Newark on Thursday.

282
00:11:38,364 --> 00:11:40,282
If it's gastrointestinal--

283
00:11:40,366 --> 00:11:41,659
You lied to avoid seeing
your own mom?

284
00:11:41,742 --> 00:11:44,578
Are you kidding?
I can't lie to my mom.

285
00:11:44,662 --> 00:11:46,080
Seriously, I can't.

286
00:11:46,163 --> 00:11:47,748
<i>Wilson's invited me to dinner.</i>

287
00:11:47,832 --> 00:11:48,999
It would be rude
to stand up a guy

288
00:11:49,083 --> 00:11:50,209
who just loaned me five grand.

289
00:11:50,292 --> 00:11:52,378
Transverse myelitis?

290
00:11:52,461 --> 00:11:54,004
<i>It causes numbness,</i>
<i>anal sphincter dysfunction.</i>

291
00:11:54,088 --> 00:11:55,464
And the shocks.

292
00:11:55,548 --> 00:11:58,968
Thank you for taking no interest
in my mother.

293
00:11:59,051 --> 00:12:01,679
That begs the question, what
caused the transverse myelitis?

294
00:12:01,762 --> 00:12:05,641
We've ruled out cancer and MS.
Leaves infection.

295
00:12:05,725 --> 00:12:07,601
If there was infection,
there'd be a fever.

296
00:12:07,685 --> 00:12:09,770
And his blood and CSF cultures
are already negative.

297
00:12:09,854 --> 00:12:14,900
Maybe the infection's gone,
but the memory remains.

298
00:12:14,984 --> 00:12:17,611
Molecular mimicry.
Nice.

299
00:12:17,695 --> 00:12:21,073
Now get an immunoglobulin level
and electrophoresis.

300
00:12:24,452 --> 00:12:29,373
You're good, my friend.
I'm sure we'll meet again.

301
00:12:29,457 --> 00:12:31,542
You really think
that was his mom on the phone?

302
00:12:31,625 --> 00:12:33,794
Probably, I don't know why
he'd lie about that.

303
00:12:33,878 --> 00:12:35,588
Who cares?

304
00:12:35,671 --> 00:12:37,882
You're not the least bit curious
what his parents are like?

305
00:12:37,965 --> 00:12:39,508
I'm sure his mom's
a piece of work.

306
00:12:39,592 --> 00:12:41,302
Only a mother could do
that much damage.

307
00:12:41,385 --> 00:12:43,304
My bet's he was born
the way he is.

308
00:12:43,387 --> 00:12:45,347
Probably tormented his parents,
not the other way around.

309
00:12:45,431 --> 00:12:47,475
He was either a fast runner
or one hell of a fighter.

310
00:12:47,558 --> 00:12:48,893
Where you going?

311
00:12:48,976 --> 00:12:51,353
You guys can handle
the tests, right?

312
00:12:58,319 --> 00:13:00,404
Is there something important
that you and House need

313
00:13:00,488 --> 00:13:01,906
<i>to discuss over dinner?</i>

314
00:13:01,989 --> 00:13:04,241
Other than
the skyrocketing interest rates

315
00:13:04,325 --> 00:13:05,367
on personal loans?

316
00:13:05,451 --> 00:13:07,077
You know,
this is the fourth time

317
00:13:07,161 --> 00:13:10,456
I've loaned him money.
Not lunch money--money, money.

318
00:13:10,539 --> 00:13:13,292
House's parents?
They have a layover

319
00:13:13,375 --> 00:13:17,713
in Newark Thursday evening.

320
00:13:17,797 --> 00:13:19,882
I'm canceling dinner.

321
00:13:19,965 --> 00:13:24,053
No, I thought maybe you could
just invite a few more people.

322
00:13:24,136 --> 00:13:26,806
(Foreman)
An infectious agent's
molecular structure

323
00:13:26,889 --> 00:13:28,808
can resemble the spinal cord's.

324
00:13:28,891 --> 00:13:30,935
When the immune system
attacks the infection

325
00:13:31,018 --> 00:13:34,104
it ends up attacking
the spinal cord's as well.

326
00:13:34,188 --> 00:13:35,231
So he has
an infection.

327
00:13:35,314 --> 00:13:37,274
They just said I don't.

328
00:13:37,358 --> 00:13:39,568
Even after the infection is
gone, it goes right on attacking

329
00:13:39,652 --> 00:13:40,945
because the spinal cord
is still there.

330
00:13:41,028 --> 00:13:42,446
<i>(Ken)</i>
<i>Is there a treatment?</i>

331
00:13:42,530 --> 00:13:44,114
Depends on what
the original infection was.

332
00:13:44,198 --> 00:13:45,908
All right, you're done.
You need to lay flat

333
00:13:45,991 --> 00:13:49,119
after a lumbar puncture
for about an hour.

334
00:13:49,203 --> 00:13:50,663
<i>(Carnell)</i>
<i>I feel like I'm gonna throw up.</i>

335
00:13:50,746 --> 00:13:52,623
Hey Dad, can you get me
a coke please?

336
00:13:52,706 --> 00:13:55,709
Yeah, that usually helps.

337
00:13:55,793 --> 00:13:59,255
You're done.

338
00:13:59,338 --> 00:14:00,381
If you're nauseous--

339
00:14:00,464 --> 00:14:01,507
No, I'm not nauseous.

340
00:14:01,590 --> 00:14:02,633
I just want him outta here.

341
00:14:02,716 --> 00:14:03,801
He's your dad.

342
00:14:03,884 --> 00:14:04,927
He's gonna be around.

343
00:14:05,010 --> 00:14:08,097
Yeah, I know.

344
00:14:08,180 --> 00:14:12,184
<i>(Carnell)</i>
<i>It's not that, it's...</i>

345
00:14:12,268 --> 00:14:14,019
Are these people
completely incapable

346
00:14:14,103 --> 00:14:16,063
of telling the truth
to each other?

347
00:14:16,146 --> 00:14:17,189
He went to Jamaica
with his friends.

348
00:14:17,273 --> 00:14:19,817
No wonder he lied.

349
00:14:19,900 --> 00:14:21,986
Children aren't supposed
to have good times.

350
00:14:22,069 --> 00:14:23,654
One of his friends
flew them down.

351
00:14:23,737 --> 00:14:25,072
Carnell's dad has
this thing about him

352
00:14:25,155 --> 00:14:27,032
<i>accepting stuff</i>
<i>from rich friends.</i>

353
00:14:27,116 --> 00:14:29,910
<i>Wants him to remember who he</i>
<i>is, and where he came from.</i>

354
00:14:29,994 --> 00:14:31,161
Where have you been?

355
00:14:31,245 --> 00:14:33,956
Making dinner plans.
What's up?

356
00:14:34,039 --> 00:14:35,916
The boys have uncovered
the shocking fact

357
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,586
<i>that the patient has a crappy</i>
<i>relationship with his dad.</i>

358
00:14:38,669 --> 00:14:41,130
They seem to actually care.
(House)
Well, I don't.

359
00:14:41,213 --> 00:14:43,549
There's only one reason any kid
with a plane flies to Jamaica.

360
00:14:43,632 --> 00:14:44,925
It wasn't for marijuana.

361
00:14:45,009 --> 00:14:46,176
He doesn't do anything
but drink.

362
00:14:46,260 --> 00:14:47,469
He said that to you
or his pops?

363
00:14:47,553 --> 00:14:49,013
Tox screen was negative for THC.

364
00:14:49,096 --> 00:14:51,807
Spring break was
over a month ago.

365
00:14:51,891 --> 00:14:53,434
Even pot would have
washed out by now.

366
00:14:53,517 --> 00:14:55,311
Even if he'd smoked,

367
00:14:55,394 --> 00:14:58,147
no way marijuana
causes transverse myelitis?

368
00:14:58,230 --> 00:15:00,482
True, but the stuff
that they put on it does.

369
00:15:00,566 --> 00:15:01,734
Pesticides.

370
00:15:01,817 --> 00:15:04,028
Why would he come clean
about the trip,

371
00:15:04,111 --> 00:15:06,238
but lie about smoking pot?

372
00:15:06,322 --> 00:15:08,365
Wouldn't have necessarily
have to smoke to get
pesticide poisoning.

373
00:15:08,449 --> 00:15:09,867
He could have eaten fruit
that had been sprayed

374
00:15:09,950 --> 00:15:11,368
or been exposed
through his skin on a hike.

375
00:15:11,452 --> 00:15:13,704
Or he could have smoked it.

376
00:15:13,787 --> 00:15:15,289
A lot of it.
And lied about it.

377
00:15:15,372 --> 00:15:16,498
Because that's what
this family does.

378
00:15:16,582 --> 00:15:18,751
Start him on IV pralidoxime.

379
00:15:18,834 --> 00:15:20,586
Two grams per liter,

380
00:15:20,669 --> 00:15:22,588
<i>then one gram every eight hours</i>
<i>until you see improvement.</i>

381
00:15:22,671 --> 00:15:25,674
You have no evidence to support
a poisoning diagnosis.

382
00:15:25,758 --> 00:15:26,926
Which is why
it's gonna be so cool

383
00:15:27,009 --> 00:15:29,511
when I turn out to be right.

384
00:15:32,306 --> 00:15:33,557
<i>(House)</i>
<i>Cameron.</i>

385
00:15:33,641 --> 00:15:35,935
Who are you making
dinner plans with?

386
00:15:36,018 --> 00:15:37,937
No one.

387
00:15:43,275 --> 00:15:44,777
<i>(House)</i>
<i>You bastard.</i>

388
00:15:44,860 --> 00:15:49,615
You invited my parents
to dinner.

389
00:15:49,698 --> 00:15:50,908
Jeez, Cameron's got
a big mouth.

390
00:15:50,991 --> 00:15:52,576
Ha, not as big as yours.

391
00:15:52,660 --> 00:15:55,412
Hey, you used me
to avoid seeing your parents.

392
00:15:55,496 --> 00:15:57,331
What do you care?

393
00:15:57,414 --> 00:15:59,124
I don't, I just thought it might
be interesting to find out why.

394
00:15:59,208 --> 00:16:00,250
You could have just asked.

395
00:16:00,334 --> 00:16:01,377
You would have lied.

396
00:16:01,460 --> 00:16:03,671
And you would have believed me,

397
00:16:03,754 --> 00:16:06,215
which would have kept
us both happy.

398
00:16:06,298 --> 00:16:09,385
You want your money back?
Is that what this is about?

399
00:16:09,468 --> 00:16:11,553
No!

400
00:16:11,637 --> 00:16:15,599
Wait--well--
have you got the money?

401
00:16:18,060 --> 00:16:21,438
If you have the money, then
why did you need the loan?

402
00:16:21,522 --> 00:16:22,940
I didn't.

403
00:16:23,023 --> 00:16:25,317
I just wanted to see
if you'd give it to me.

404
00:16:25,401 --> 00:16:26,568
I've been borrowing
increasing amounts ever since

405
00:16:26,652 --> 00:16:28,112
<i>you lent me $40 a year ago.</i>

406
00:16:28,195 --> 00:16:33,033
A little experiment to see where
you draw the line.

407
00:16:33,117 --> 00:16:37,204
You're--you're trying to
objectively measure

408
00:16:37,287 --> 00:16:38,622
how much I value
our friendship?

409
00:16:38,706 --> 00:16:40,374
It's five grand.

410
00:16:40,457 --> 00:16:42,042
You got nothing
to be ashamed of.

411
00:16:42,126 --> 00:16:43,544
So what do you say?

412
00:16:43,627 --> 00:16:47,965
One little phone call,
one big check.

413
00:16:48,048 --> 00:16:49,091
Fine.

414
00:16:49,174 --> 00:16:53,303
Thanks.

415
00:16:53,387 --> 00:16:55,305
Now be a grownup
and either tell mommy and daddy

416
00:16:55,389 --> 00:16:56,682
you don't want to see them,

417
00:16:56,765 --> 00:16:58,726
or I'm picking you up
at 7:00 for dinner.

418
00:16:58,809 --> 00:17:00,644
What do you mean?

419
00:17:00,728 --> 00:17:02,312
You just said that--
I lied.

420
00:17:02,396 --> 00:17:04,815
I've been lying to you
in increasing amounts

421
00:17:04,898 --> 00:17:06,775
<i>ever since I told you</i>
<i>you looked good unshaved</i>

422
00:17:06,859 --> 00:17:08,193
a year ago.

423
00:17:08,277 --> 00:17:09,820
It's a little experiment,
you know,

424
00:17:09,903 --> 00:17:12,573
see where you draw the line.

425
00:17:17,411 --> 00:17:18,912
<i>(Cuddy)</i>
<i>How's the patient?</i>

426
00:17:18,996 --> 00:17:20,247
<i>(Foreman)</i>
<i>Haven't been in yet today.</i>

427
00:17:20,330 --> 00:17:23,709
As long as he hasn't
gotten any worse.

428
00:17:23,792 --> 00:17:25,335
You're treating him
for pesticide poisoning

429
00:17:25,419 --> 00:17:27,004
without any proof
of pesticides.

430
00:17:27,087 --> 00:17:29,006
We're gonna have a hell
of a time explaining that

431
00:17:29,089 --> 00:17:30,215
to our lawyer.

432
00:17:30,299 --> 00:17:33,010
I told House not to...

433
00:17:34,678 --> 00:17:37,806
Wow.

434
00:17:37,890 --> 00:17:39,308
Lawyer's not
gonna believe this.

435
00:17:39,391 --> 00:17:42,978
[laughter]
He's got his appetite back.

436
00:17:43,062 --> 00:17:44,772
Whatever you did,
it's working.

437
00:17:44,855 --> 00:17:48,358
He's healthy,
so all is forgiven.

438
00:17:48,442 --> 00:17:49,610
Now I'm feeling
nauseous.

439
00:17:49,693 --> 00:17:51,195
He is not healthy.

440
00:17:51,278 --> 00:17:53,530
Nausea and diarrhea
were not his only symptoms.

441
00:17:53,614 --> 00:17:54,990
Shocks have
also decreased.

442
00:17:55,074 --> 00:17:56,450
But not disappeared.

443
00:17:56,533 --> 00:17:57,868
And he's out
of the diaper,

444
00:17:57,951 --> 00:17:59,161
which is good news
for everyone.

445
00:17:59,244 --> 00:18:01,038
What about his low white count?

446
00:18:01,121 --> 00:18:03,999
The little buggers
need time to grow.

447
00:18:04,083 --> 00:18:05,334
Don't worry, our wrestling
Rastafarian

448
00:18:05,417 --> 00:18:07,002
will be back on his feet

449
00:18:07,086 --> 00:18:09,880
and sneaking around behind
pop's back again in no time.

450
00:18:09,963 --> 00:18:11,340
[phone rings]

451
00:18:11,423 --> 00:18:13,509
Yeah.

452
00:18:13,592 --> 00:18:17,179
Check it again.

453
00:18:17,262 --> 00:18:19,598
I'll be right there.

454
00:18:19,681 --> 00:18:21,308
What happened?

455
00:18:21,391 --> 00:18:22,935
Apparently I can save money
by switching

456
00:18:23,018 --> 00:18:25,312
to another
long-distance carrier.

457
00:18:25,395 --> 00:18:26,772
Oh, I was right.
Wasn't I?

458
00:18:26,855 --> 00:18:29,608
Oh yeah, it's always
about you, isn't it?

459
00:18:29,691 --> 00:18:32,027
He has the chills and
his temperature is spiking.

460
00:18:32,111 --> 00:18:33,904
<i>It's nearly 106.</i>

461
00:18:33,987 --> 00:18:35,656
(Ken) What's that mean?
I mean, what's happened?

462
00:18:35,739 --> 00:18:37,199
<i>(House)</i>
<i>Do you want the truth?</i>

463
00:18:37,282 --> 00:18:39,409
Or you want me to make something
up to protect you?

464
00:18:39,493 --> 00:18:41,578
We think a drunk driver
broke into his room.

465
00:18:41,662 --> 00:18:44,039
What's happening
to my son?

466
00:18:44,123 --> 00:18:47,793
The truth is I have no idea.

467
00:18:57,594 --> 00:18:59,972
There's the fever
that Cameron was looking for.

468
00:19:00,055 --> 00:19:02,641
We knew if was myelitis
there had to be an "itis."

469
00:19:02,724 --> 00:19:04,977
This must be the infection
that set it off.

470
00:19:05,060 --> 00:19:07,437
Yeah, except in this universe
effect follows cause.

471
00:19:07,521 --> 00:19:09,606
I've complained about it, but--

472
00:19:09,690 --> 00:19:11,316
Maybe the tests were wrong.
<i>(House)</i>
<i>No, the tests were right.</i>

473
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,485
Yesterday he had no fever.
No infection.

474
00:19:13,569 --> 00:19:15,529
So he just happened to catch
a bug while he was here?

475
00:19:15,612 --> 00:19:17,156
That's all this is?

476
00:19:17,239 --> 00:19:18,740
Yeah, because his white blood
cell count was down,

477
00:19:18,824 --> 00:19:20,492
he was vulnerable.

478
00:19:20,576 --> 00:19:21,952
<i>Because it's really down,</i>
<i>it might kill him,</i>

479
00:19:22,035 --> 00:19:24,037
but that's all this is.

480
00:19:24,121 --> 00:19:25,414
Is he still pooping his pants?

481
00:19:25,497 --> 00:19:27,916
He just started again.
Again?

482
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,668
It stopped when he
was getting better.

483
00:19:29,751 --> 00:19:34,631
He was feeling better.
He was never getting better.

484
00:19:34,715 --> 00:19:36,341
So all we have
to answer is

485
00:19:36,425 --> 00:19:37,968
what causes
a 22-year-old kid

486
00:19:38,051 --> 00:19:39,386
to become
immuno-compromised

487
00:19:39,469 --> 00:19:41,471
with GI involvement
and shocks?

488
00:19:41,555 --> 00:19:43,473
That stop and start
for no apparent reason.

489
00:19:43,557 --> 00:19:45,100
We need to find an answer
before this infection kills him.

490
00:19:45,184 --> 00:19:47,436
Yeah, that'd be the ideal.

491
00:19:47,519 --> 00:19:50,480
You, intravenous
broad spectrum antibiotics.

492
00:19:50,564 --> 00:19:52,858
You get a cervical thoracic
and lumbar T2 weighted fast spin

493
00:19:52,941 --> 00:19:54,693
echo MRIs.
And you, track down

494
00:19:54,776 --> 00:19:56,695
all those Richie Riches
who went to Jamaica.

495
00:19:56,778 --> 00:20:01,783
See if any of them got the
shocks, the trots, or the hots.

496
00:20:01,867 --> 00:20:04,369
The hots, it's fever.

497
00:20:04,453 --> 00:20:07,247
You guys gonna join us
for dinner Thursday?

498
00:20:07,331 --> 00:20:10,167
Um, gotta do my laundry.

499
00:20:10,250 --> 00:20:12,002
You're not curious?

500
00:20:12,085 --> 00:20:13,420
Curious about crocs,
but I don't stick

501
00:20:13,503 --> 00:20:15,088
my head
in their mouths.

502
00:20:15,172 --> 00:20:17,841
I'm out too.
House is a freak.

503
00:20:17,925 --> 00:20:20,677
There's no virus that
causes that, no DNA mutation.

504
00:20:20,761 --> 00:20:22,346
You're gonna have
one dinner with two people.

505
00:20:22,429 --> 00:20:23,889
60 minutes,
most of it spent chewing,

506
00:20:23,972 --> 00:20:25,724
talking about the weather.

507
00:20:25,807 --> 00:20:28,143
Unless they something like,
"Do you prefer the Chardonnay

508
00:20:28,227 --> 00:20:30,062
or the Merlot--
we kept Greg locked

509
00:20:30,145 --> 00:20:32,189
in the closet for 17 years,"
you're not gonna learn anything.

510
00:20:32,272 --> 00:20:34,441
Okay.

511
00:20:34,524 --> 00:20:36,902
<i>(Cameron)</i>
<i>We'd like to talk</i>
<i>to some of your friends,</i>

512
00:20:36,985 --> 00:20:38,946
see if they have
any similar symptoms.

513
00:20:39,029 --> 00:20:40,906
<i>(Ken)</i>
<i>The doctors in the ER</i>
<i>already asked me that.</i>

514
00:20:40,989 --> 00:20:42,866
<i>(Cameron)</i>
<i>We understand.</i>

515
00:20:42,950 --> 00:20:44,868
But they didn't have all
the information we have now.

516
00:20:44,952 --> 00:20:47,871
What kind of information?

517
00:20:47,955 --> 00:20:51,416
Would you mind if I spoke
with Carnell alone for a minute?

518
00:20:51,500 --> 00:20:54,002
Is this bad news?

519
00:20:54,086 --> 00:20:56,129
No.
It's just confidential.

520
00:20:56,213 --> 00:20:59,174
Why is something
suddenly confidential?

521
00:20:59,258 --> 00:21:00,717
<i>I mean, if you know something</i>

522
00:21:00,801 --> 00:21:03,303
about my son,
I need to know what's going on.

523
00:21:03,387 --> 00:21:05,722
I'm sorry.
I have to insist.

524
00:21:05,806 --> 00:21:07,266
I'm his father.

525
00:21:07,349 --> 00:21:08,850
And if I'm going
to take care of him,

526
00:21:08,934 --> 00:21:10,435
I need to know the truth.

527
00:21:10,519 --> 00:21:15,274
Dad, She wants to know
who I went to Jamaica with.

528
00:21:15,357 --> 00:21:17,442
You never been to Jamaica.

529
00:21:17,526 --> 00:21:20,779
Taddy's dad flew a bunch
of us down over spring break.

530
00:21:20,862 --> 00:21:26,493
You told me you had two papers
to write over the break.

531
00:21:26,576 --> 00:21:30,289
'Cause I didn't wanna come home
and work my ass off.

532
00:21:30,372 --> 00:21:35,252
I wanted to take an actual break
during the break for once.

533
00:21:35,335 --> 00:21:37,587
I shouldn't have lied to you.

534
00:21:37,671 --> 00:21:40,716
No, what you shoulda done
is come home

535
00:21:40,799 --> 00:21:42,718
instead of partying
with your rich friends.

536
00:21:42,801 --> 00:21:45,262
I'm sorry.
We need those names.

537
00:21:51,601 --> 00:21:53,103
What do you want?

538
00:21:53,186 --> 00:21:54,646
To apologize.

539
00:21:54,730 --> 00:21:56,648
I realize that my attention

540
00:21:56,732 --> 00:21:58,525
to the clinic
has been somewhat lax of late,

541
00:21:58,608 --> 00:21:59,776
and I want to make amends.

542
00:21:59,860 --> 00:22:02,112
How 'bout tomorrow night?

543
00:22:02,195 --> 00:22:03,238
I take the night shift.

544
00:22:03,322 --> 00:22:05,073
The clinic's
closed at night.

545
00:22:05,157 --> 00:22:07,617
Yeah, but I'm sure there's
plenty of things to be done.

546
00:22:07,701 --> 00:22:10,203
There's charts to be reviewed,
supplies inventoried--

547
00:22:10,287 --> 00:22:11,330
Dinners avoided.

548
00:22:11,413 --> 00:22:13,373
You're going too?

549
00:22:13,457 --> 00:22:14,624
I love their
Cobb salad.

550
00:22:14,708 --> 00:22:18,211
Give me a reason
to get out of this,

551
00:22:18,295 --> 00:22:19,963
and I'll tell you
who started the rumor

552
00:22:20,047 --> 00:22:21,089
about you
being a transsexual.

553
00:22:21,173 --> 00:22:23,425
There is no such rumor.

554
00:22:23,508 --> 00:22:25,635
There will be unless you get me
out of this dinner.

555
00:22:25,719 --> 00:22:28,055
No one's making
you do this, House.

556
00:22:28,138 --> 00:22:30,474
Just do what everybody else
does, lie to them.

557
00:22:30,557 --> 00:22:32,267
You lie to your mother?

558
00:22:32,351 --> 00:22:34,019
Only since I was 12.

559
00:22:34,102 --> 00:22:35,812
My mom's a human polygraph.

560
00:22:35,896 --> 00:22:38,315
My dad should be taking her
to Vegas, not the Louvre.

561
00:22:38,398 --> 00:22:40,817
Trust me, your mom
would much rather think

562
00:22:40,901 --> 00:22:43,737
you have a business meeting
than you hate her.

563
00:22:43,820 --> 00:22:45,655
I don't hate her.

564
00:22:45,739 --> 00:22:48,533
I hate him.

565
00:22:48,617 --> 00:22:52,037
(Taddy)
We all had headaches,
nausea, vomiting.

566
00:22:52,120 --> 00:22:53,372
We figured it was connected

567
00:22:53,455 --> 00:22:56,166
to the massive amounts
of drinking.

568
00:22:56,249 --> 00:22:57,376
You think what happened
to Carnell

569
00:22:57,459 --> 00:22:58,877
has something to do
with the trip?

570
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:00,629
Don't know.
You haven't had

571
00:23:00,712 --> 00:23:02,839
any unexplained pain or strange
feelings since you got back?

572
00:23:02,923 --> 00:23:05,717
Nope, except for a little
athlete's foot, I'm fine.

573
00:23:05,801 --> 00:23:07,677
Can I see it?

574
00:23:07,761 --> 00:23:08,804
See what?

575
00:23:08,887 --> 00:23:10,222
Your feet.

576
00:23:10,305 --> 00:23:13,183
There's a common parasite
in Jamaica

577
00:23:13,266 --> 00:23:17,187
that can resemble foot fungus.

578
00:23:17,270 --> 00:23:20,065
It's not really my feet.

579
00:23:20,148 --> 00:23:22,442
You know, I figured
fungus is fungus.

580
00:23:22,526 --> 00:23:24,611
It's my groin.

581
00:23:24,694 --> 00:23:29,032
I'm going to need
to take a look at that.

582
00:23:29,116 --> 00:23:30,575
Now?

583
00:23:30,659 --> 00:23:32,327
Unless you wanna come down
to the hospital with me.

584
00:23:32,411 --> 00:23:34,538
No, I can't, I mean,
I just started two days ago,

585
00:23:34,621 --> 00:23:35,747
and we're right
in the middle of a big merg--

586
00:23:35,831 --> 00:23:37,457
Then drop your pants.

587
00:23:52,389 --> 00:23:54,599
Reilly, I need the--

588
00:23:54,683 --> 00:23:55,934
What the hell's going on here?

589
00:23:56,017 --> 00:23:57,352
She's a doctor.

590
00:23:57,436 --> 00:23:58,687
I'm a doctor.
He has a rash.

591
00:23:58,770 --> 00:24:00,272
And a friend of his--
Right.

592
00:24:00,355 --> 00:24:01,857
Well, as soon as she's
done treating your rash,

593
00:24:01,940 --> 00:24:03,191
<i>I need the numbers</i>
<i>on D-Port Technology.</i>

594
00:24:03,275 --> 00:24:04,317
Yes, Sir.

595
00:24:04,401 --> 00:24:06,945
And Doctor, why don't you leave

596
00:24:07,028 --> 00:24:09,990
a card on your way out?

597
00:24:16,621 --> 00:24:18,123
<i>(Cameron)</i>
<i>Except for one guy</i>
<i>with a rash</i>

598
00:24:18,206 --> 00:24:20,292
no one else on the trip
has any health issues.

599
00:24:20,375 --> 00:24:21,543
What kind of rash?

600
00:24:21,626 --> 00:24:23,003
I don't know.
I took some scrapings.

601
00:24:23,086 --> 00:24:24,796
It doesn't appear
to be ringworm.

602
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:25,922
What did it look like?

603
00:24:26,006 --> 00:24:27,340
Aside from not ringworm.

604
00:24:27,424 --> 00:24:28,925
Basically like diaper rash.

605
00:24:29,009 --> 00:24:30,927
<i>He's been working</i>
<i>around the clock.</i>

606
00:24:31,011 --> 00:24:33,430
Said he hasn't changed
his clothes in three days.

607
00:24:33,513 --> 00:24:35,098
Kaposi's sarcoma can
look like diaper rash.

608
00:24:35,182 --> 00:24:36,892
Any discoloration
around the edges?

609
00:24:36,975 --> 00:24:38,685
Get him in here.
We all wanna take a look.

610
00:24:38,768 --> 00:24:40,145
<i>Even if it is Kaposi's,</i>
<i>it's not related.</i>

611
00:24:40,228 --> 00:24:42,147
The patient doesn't have
any skin symptoms.

612
00:24:42,230 --> 00:24:43,773
And we've already
ruled out cancer.

613
00:24:43,857 --> 00:24:45,650
What are the odds of two friends
who've just returned

614
00:24:45,734 --> 00:24:47,277
from a trip outside the country

615
00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:49,946
coming down with unexplained,
but unrelated illnesses?

616
00:24:50,030 --> 00:24:51,364
Get him in here.
<i>He won't come.</i>

617
00:24:51,448 --> 00:24:52,699
Just started a new job
after graduation.

618
00:24:52,782 --> 00:24:54,242
They're working
on some big merger.

619
00:24:54,326 --> 00:24:56,328
Tell him his friend's life hangs
in the balance.

620
00:24:56,411 --> 00:24:58,163
<i>That's what I told him</i>
<i>the first time.</i>

621
00:24:58,246 --> 00:25:00,790
Still wound up driving
into Manhattan.

622
00:25:00,874 --> 00:25:03,001
Tell him <i>his </i>life hangs
in the balance.

623
00:25:03,084 --> 00:25:04,544
<i>Tell him the rash</i>
<i>is flesh-eating,</i>

624
00:25:04,628 --> 00:25:06,254
and the next course on the menu

625
00:25:06,338 --> 00:25:10,091
is his frank and beans.

626
00:25:10,175 --> 00:25:13,011
Where is Stacy?

627
00:25:13,094 --> 00:25:14,804
Uh, speaking at a conference
in Baltimore.

628
00:25:14,888 --> 00:25:15,931
Why?
What do you need?

629
00:25:16,014 --> 00:25:17,557
Can I subpoena a patient?

630
00:25:17,641 --> 00:25:19,851
House wants me to lie to the kid
to get him in here.

631
00:25:19,935 --> 00:25:21,811
Well, then you'll be the one
getting the subpoena.

632
00:25:21,895 --> 00:25:24,189
Well, we do need him
to diagnose his friend.

633
00:25:24,272 --> 00:25:25,815
Take the test
to the kid.

634
00:25:25,899 --> 00:25:28,109
There is no test.
House just wants to look at it.

635
00:25:28,193 --> 00:25:30,153
Then take House
to it.

636
00:25:30,237 --> 00:25:32,072
Yeah, like that's
gonna happen.

637
00:25:32,155 --> 00:25:37,077
Tell House his parents called.
Said they were coming in early.

638
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,287
He'll go anywhere
just to avoid them.

639
00:25:41,873 --> 00:25:44,376
So it's okay to lie to House,
but not to a patient?

640
00:25:44,459 --> 00:25:46,378
Yep.
[pager beeps]

641
00:25:49,756 --> 00:25:50,882
<i>(Foreman)</i>
<i>What's wrong?</i>

642
00:25:50,966 --> 00:25:53,218
His stomach's getting
a lot worse.

643
00:25:53,301 --> 00:25:54,386
He's rigid.
<i>Ahh!</i>

644
00:25:59,307 --> 00:26:00,976
He's bleeding
into his abdomen.
<i>Ahh!</i>

645
00:26:01,059 --> 00:26:02,310
<i>(Cameron)</i>
<i>What's going on?</i>

646
00:26:02,394 --> 00:26:03,687
We need a surgeon
and an O.R., stat.

647
00:26:03,770 --> 00:26:05,063
<i>(Carnell)</i>
<i>Ahh!</i>

648
00:26:16,825 --> 00:26:20,328
Infection caused a perforation
in his sigmoid colon.

649
00:26:20,412 --> 00:26:21,788
It's repairable.

650
00:26:21,871 --> 00:26:23,123
It means the antibiotics
aren't working.

651
00:26:23,206 --> 00:26:24,249
<i>(House)</i>
<i>Double the dose.</i>

652
00:26:24,332 --> 00:26:26,042
And add Tygacil to the list.

653
00:26:26,126 --> 00:26:27,127
As soon as he's
out of surgery.

654
00:26:27,210 --> 00:26:28,253
Where's Richie Rich?

655
00:26:28,336 --> 00:26:29,546
He said he can't leave work.

656
00:26:29,629 --> 00:26:32,257
Yeah, you told me that
two hours ago.

657
00:26:32,340 --> 00:26:33,383
I'm not gonna lie.

658
00:26:33,466 --> 00:26:35,719
Why?
Because it's wrong?

659
00:26:35,802 --> 00:26:37,387
Or because you're
a coward?

660
00:26:37,470 --> 00:26:38,972
Hmm, tough choice.

661
00:26:39,055 --> 00:26:41,433
You'd be wasting two hours
of the kid's time.

662
00:26:41,516 --> 00:26:44,269
Is that deeply and
unforgivably morally wrong? No.

663
00:26:44,352 --> 00:26:46,062
Because it's not
a waste of his time.

664
00:26:46,146 --> 00:26:48,732
Unless we're wrong.

665
00:26:48,815 --> 00:26:50,775
Unless his condition's got
nothing to do with his friend's.

666
00:26:50,859 --> 00:26:53,987
You're just afraid
of being wrong.

667
00:26:57,032 --> 00:27:00,201
Your parents called.

668
00:27:00,285 --> 00:27:01,620
They had to catch an earlier--

669
00:27:01,703 --> 00:27:03,455
You don't have to lie to him.

670
00:27:03,538 --> 00:27:04,873
Kid's on his way here.

671
00:27:04,956 --> 00:27:05,999
He got off work?

672
00:27:06,082 --> 00:27:08,585
Yeah, by vomiting blood.

673
00:27:08,668 --> 00:27:09,794
Ambulance is ten minutes out.

674
00:27:12,589 --> 00:27:13,798
[sirens blaring]

675
00:27:17,510 --> 00:27:19,971
You Taddy?
What?

676
00:27:20,055 --> 00:27:22,098
I love the name.
I never had a dog.

677
00:27:22,182 --> 00:27:23,892
Take off his pants.

678
00:27:23,975 --> 00:27:25,602
<i>(Taddy) Hey.</i>
Don't talk to her.
Listen to me.

679
00:27:25,685 --> 00:27:27,228
(EMT)
He's vomited in excess

680
00:27:27,312 --> 00:27:29,898
of three units of blood.
He needs to be admitted bef--

681
00:27:29,981 --> 00:27:31,524
If you wanted to be a doctor,
maybe you should have

682
00:27:31,608 --> 00:27:33,443
buckled down a little more
in high school.
Bite me.

683
00:27:33,526 --> 00:27:34,861
What are you doing?

684
00:27:34,944 --> 00:27:36,029
Exactly how close
were you and Carnell?

685
00:27:36,112 --> 00:27:37,489
Not so close.

686
00:27:37,572 --> 00:27:38,740
Spend a lot of time together
in Jamaica?

687
00:27:38,823 --> 00:27:39,866
Share a room?

688
00:27:39,949 --> 00:27:41,993
Wait, you don't think--

689
00:27:42,077 --> 00:27:43,161
Look, we're not gay.

690
00:27:43,244 --> 00:27:44,496
I'm not saying you're gay.

691
00:27:44,579 --> 00:27:46,164
I'm saying you had sex.

692
00:27:46,247 --> 00:27:48,500
Look, we're not gay.
We hardly even hung out.

693
00:27:48,583 --> 00:27:50,502
Right, you flew him
down to Jamaica

694
00:27:50,585 --> 00:27:51,586
because he won a contest.

695
00:27:51,670 --> 00:27:53,380
No, he's in my frat.

696
00:27:53,463 --> 00:27:55,256
Between school and wrestling
and going home every break

697
00:27:55,340 --> 00:27:57,092
to work at his
father's junkyard,

698
00:27:57,175 --> 00:27:59,427
Carnell didn't have any time
to hang out with anybody.

699
00:27:59,511 --> 00:28:01,680
<i>It's not fungus.</i>
<i>(Cameron)</i>
<i>I already told you that.</i>

700
00:28:01,763 --> 00:28:06,226
There's no pustules.
It's not staph.

701
00:28:06,309 --> 00:28:08,478
His dad's what?

702
00:28:08,561 --> 00:28:11,189
His dad owns
a scrap metal salvage yard.

703
00:28:11,272 --> 00:28:13,900
Carnell worked there
during breaks.

704
00:28:19,155 --> 00:28:20,824
You lied.

705
00:28:20,907 --> 00:28:22,283
What are you talking about?

706
00:28:22,367 --> 00:28:24,327
Oh yeah, of course,
in this family

707
00:28:24,411 --> 00:28:26,663
you probably need
more specifics.

708
00:28:26,746 --> 00:28:29,874
You told us you owned
a construction company,
not a salvage yard.

709
00:28:29,958 --> 00:28:31,376
I know
the way things work.

710
00:28:31,459 --> 00:28:34,212
The better my job,
the better my son gets treated.

711
00:28:34,295 --> 00:28:35,505
Right, that's why I'm mad.

712
00:28:35,588 --> 00:28:38,425
We wasted all that
filet mignon on you.

713
00:28:38,508 --> 00:28:40,385
Did your kid find
anything unusual

714
00:28:40,468 --> 00:28:41,678
the last time
he worked for you?

715
00:28:41,761 --> 00:28:43,054
No.
Braided wire?

716
00:28:43,138 --> 00:28:44,723
Metal weights on each end,
a lead canister,

717
00:28:44,806 --> 00:28:46,266
maybe just the lid.

718
00:28:46,349 --> 00:28:47,892
He probably used it as
a doorstop or a paperweight.

719
00:28:47,976 --> 00:28:50,520
Why would he wanna--

720
00:28:50,603 --> 00:28:53,440
Okay, here it comes.

721
00:28:53,523 --> 00:28:56,484
I gave him an early graduation
gift, an old plumb I found.

722
00:28:56,568 --> 00:28:57,694
It looks like a fishing weight.

723
00:28:57,777 --> 00:28:59,279
I put it
on a keychain, so he'd

724
00:28:59,362 --> 00:29:00,572
always remember
where he came from.

725
00:29:00,655 --> 00:29:03,491
So he can lie
about it later.

726
00:29:03,575 --> 00:29:04,951
Where's the keychain?
I don't know.

727
00:29:05,034 --> 00:29:06,077
He never used it.

728
00:29:06,161 --> 00:29:07,328
Just kept it
as a good luck charm.

729
00:29:07,412 --> 00:29:08,455
Kept it where?

730
00:29:08,538 --> 00:29:10,498
I don't know.

731
00:29:10,582 --> 00:29:12,083
Why?

732
00:29:12,167 --> 00:29:13,209
Why does it matter?

733
00:29:13,293 --> 00:29:15,086
Where are the kid's clothes?

734
00:29:15,170 --> 00:29:17,172
In the bureau
back in his regular room.

735
00:29:17,255 --> 00:29:19,132
You two, get it
to radiology.

736
00:29:19,215 --> 00:29:20,592
His clothes?
The bureau.

737
00:29:20,675 --> 00:29:22,177
Don't open it.

738
00:29:22,260 --> 00:29:23,928
You, come with me.

739
00:29:29,726 --> 00:29:34,439
<i>(House)</i>
<i>Set it down there.</i>

740
00:29:34,522 --> 00:29:37,275
Now get out of here.
This thing is radioactive.

741
00:29:37,358 --> 00:29:40,737
The chances of radiation
causing CNS symptoms...

742
00:29:40,820 --> 00:29:43,782
[Geiger Counter sounds loudly]

743
00:29:51,623 --> 00:29:54,292
Call the boys
in the lead pajamas.

744
00:30:06,888 --> 00:30:08,556
(Foreman)
The radiation measurements
weren't high enough

745
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,017
to cause
central nervous system damage.

746
00:30:11,100 --> 00:30:12,602
It might not have caused
nerve damage,

747
00:30:12,685 --> 00:30:14,604
but it definitely
destroyed his immune system.

748
00:30:14,687 --> 00:30:16,356
And caused tumors.

749
00:30:16,439 --> 00:30:17,482
<i>(Cameron)</i>
<i>We don't know that.</i>

750
00:30:17,565 --> 00:30:19,234
None of the MRIs
showed anything.

751
00:30:19,317 --> 00:30:23,112
Do a Pet Scan.

752
00:30:23,196 --> 00:30:26,157
Check his cervical spine.

753
00:30:26,241 --> 00:30:29,786
It's not gonna be
good news.

754
00:30:29,869 --> 00:30:33,456
(Foreman)
I'm sorry, it's not good news.

755
00:30:33,540 --> 00:30:36,459
<i>The piece of metal</i>

756
00:30:36,543 --> 00:30:38,253
that you gave Carnell was
from an industrial device

757
00:30:38,336 --> 00:30:39,921
used to test wells.

758
00:30:40,004 --> 00:30:42,590
People aren't supposed to just
dump radioactive material.

759
00:30:42,674 --> 00:30:44,008
But they do.

760
00:30:49,389 --> 00:30:52,267
So what now?
I mean, what do you do?

761
00:30:52,350 --> 00:30:54,060
<i>(Foreman)</i>
<i>Anyone who has had contact</i>
<i>with the source</i>

762
00:30:54,143 --> 00:30:56,104

<i>get treatment</i>

763
00:30:56,187 --> 00:30:57,480
for radiation sickness.

764
00:30:57,564 --> 00:30:59,524
Taddy carried it
on his lap on a drive.

765
00:30:59,607 --> 00:31:00,775
So there is a treatment?

766
00:31:00,859 --> 00:31:02,485
Transfusions.

767
00:31:02,569 --> 00:31:06,447
And we try to get the fluids
and the electrolytes balanced.

768
00:31:06,531 --> 00:31:10,994
Carnell--he's had
much more exposure.

769
00:31:11,077 --> 00:31:15,623
The equivalent
of about 70,000 chest x-rays.

770
00:31:15,707 --> 00:31:17,584
His ability
to create white blood cells

771
00:31:17,667 --> 00:31:19,294
has been completely destroyed.

772
00:31:19,377 --> 00:31:22,255
That's why he can't
fight off this infection?

773
00:31:22,338 --> 00:31:25,258
He's gonna need
a bone marrow transplant.

774
00:31:25,341 --> 00:31:27,760
[sighs]

775
00:31:27,844 --> 00:31:30,972
And we did another PET scan.

776
00:31:31,055 --> 00:31:33,725
There's a cavernous angioma
within his spinal cord.

777
00:31:33,808 --> 00:31:35,518
It's a tumor.

778
00:31:35,602 --> 00:31:39,272
That's what's been causing
the shocks and CNS symptoms.

779
00:31:39,355 --> 00:31:44,027
He has a tumor inside
of his spinal cord?

780
00:31:44,110 --> 00:31:46,529
The cord is made

781
00:31:46,613 --> 00:31:49,490
of strands put together,
sort of like a kite string.

782
00:31:49,574 --> 00:31:51,534
The surgeon should be able

783
00:31:51,618 --> 00:31:56,497
<i>to pull the strands apart</i>
<i>and excise the tumor.</i>

784
00:31:56,581 --> 00:31:58,958
Surgery on someone who's as
hemopoetically compromised

785
00:31:59,042 --> 00:32:02,211
as your son
is extremely risky.

786
00:32:12,430 --> 00:32:18,895
And, uh, if you don't do
the surgery, I mean...

787
00:32:18,978 --> 00:32:22,899
The tumor could cause
his breathing to stop.

788
00:32:22,982 --> 00:32:24,275
Possibly his heart as well.

789
00:32:27,278 --> 00:32:29,906
There's no way
you could have known.

790
00:32:43,294 --> 00:32:44,629
You're gonna have
to come with us.

791
00:32:44,712 --> 00:32:45,880
You need to start treatment
yourself.

792
00:32:45,964 --> 00:32:49,217
No, no, no, no.

793
00:32:49,300 --> 00:32:50,593
I can start
my treatment later.

794
00:32:50,677 --> 00:32:52,929
But he can't.

795
00:32:53,012 --> 00:32:55,431
He needs to be
in a sterile isolation room

796
00:32:55,515 --> 00:32:58,518
to prevent
further infections.

797
00:33:03,982 --> 00:33:05,274
Mom.
We're early.

798
00:33:05,358 --> 00:33:07,610
It's great to see you.

799
00:33:07,694 --> 00:33:11,531
Oh, Greg,
don't lie.

800
00:33:11,614 --> 00:33:13,449
We came at a bad time.

801
00:33:13,533 --> 00:33:15,284
Didn't we?
Actually, yeah.

802
00:33:15,368 --> 00:33:18,871
I have to take a rain check.

803
00:33:18,955 --> 00:33:20,373
Aw, plans have been made.

804
00:33:20,456 --> 00:33:22,250
Wilson made 'em.

805
00:33:22,333 --> 00:33:24,293
I asked him to cancel.

806
00:33:24,377 --> 00:33:26,629
I'm dealing with kind
of a complicated case right now.

807
00:33:26,713 --> 00:33:28,089
Well,
we'll just come back

808
00:33:28,172 --> 00:33:29,590
when things aren't
so out of control.

809
00:33:29,674 --> 00:33:32,468
My team is busy.

810
00:33:32,552 --> 00:33:34,095
You don't wanna see us.

811
00:33:34,178 --> 00:33:35,972
Mom, don't make me
feel guilty.

812
00:33:36,055 --> 00:33:37,140
No, no.
Of course not, sorry.

813
00:33:37,223 --> 00:33:38,641
I've got a patient

814
00:33:38,725 --> 00:33:40,435
who's probably gonna die
of radiation poisoning.

815
00:33:40,518 --> 00:33:43,312
So that means
you can't eat.

816
00:33:43,396 --> 00:33:47,025
Come on, let's grab a bite
in the cafeteria.

817
00:33:47,108 --> 00:33:49,902
I'll buy you
a Reuben.

818
00:33:49,986 --> 00:33:54,157
I guess I got time
for a sandwich.

819
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:55,700
Good.

820
00:33:57,702 --> 00:34:00,163
Yeah?

821
00:34:00,246 --> 00:34:02,165

Carnell's prepped for surgery.

822
00:34:02,248 --> 00:34:04,000
Thank you.

823
00:34:04,083 --> 00:34:08,129

828
00:34:15,678 --> 00:34:17,972
Nope, just gullible.

829
00:34:18,056 --> 00:34:20,141
I'm sorry.
I was just making fun of my son.

00:35:42,723 --> 00:35:43,975
It's always
the answer.

860
00:35:44,058 --> 00:35:46,602
Any new babes you might
wanna tell me about?

861
00:35:46,686 --> 00:35:48,271
Leave him alone, John.

862
00:35:48,354 --> 00:35:51,816
I got a new motorcycle.

863
00:35:51,899 --> 00:35:54,152
You might have seen it
out front.

864
00:35:54,235 --> 00:35:57,446
It's orange
with a gigantic scrape.

865
00:35:57,530 --> 00:35:59,115
Is it the one
in the handicapped parking?

866
00:35:59,198 --> 00:36:01,617
Yeah.

867
00:36:01,701 --> 00:36:03,035
Looks like crap,
but it drives great.

868
00:36:03,119 --> 00:36:05,413
Well, you'll be careful, right?

869
00:36:05,496 --> 00:36:06,539
<i>Last I checked</i>

870
00:36:06,622 --> 00:36:07,790
you still have two legs.

871
00:36:07,874 --> 00:36:09,041
Actually three.

872
00:36:09,125 --> 00:36:11,919
You know what
your problem is, Greg?

873
00:36:12,003 --> 00:36:14,213
Shifting gears?

874
00:36:14,297 --> 00:36:18,467
You just don't know
how lucky you are.

875
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:23,264
<i>(John)</i>
<i>Where's the head?</i>

876
00:36:25,266 --> 00:36:29,145
[sighs]

877
00:36:29,228 --> 00:36:30,771
Good thing we got
that cleared up.

878
00:36:30,855 --> 00:36:32,982
He was just
trying to help.

879
00:36:33,065 --> 00:36:34,567
I don't need help.

880
00:36:34,650 --> 00:36:36,068
I know.

881
00:36:36,152 --> 00:36:38,779
You're absolutely perfect
just the way you are.

882
00:36:56,214 --> 00:36:57,882
Thank you.

883
00:37:03,471 --> 00:37:07,141
So how much longer do you think
he'll be in surgery?

884
00:37:07,225 --> 00:37:08,351
It's hard to say.

885
00:37:08,434 --> 00:37:13,648
Hmm...hmm.

886
00:37:17,485 --> 00:37:20,863
[laughter]

887
00:37:20,947 --> 00:37:22,865
You know, he just started school
when Ann died.

888
00:37:22,949 --> 00:37:24,700
<i>I was a mess.</i>

889
00:37:24,784 --> 00:37:29,956
Hmm, still adjusting
to being a parent,

890
00:37:30,039 --> 00:37:34,752
much less a single parent.

891
00:37:34,835 --> 00:37:39,423
You know, I used to put cold
pancakes in his lunch box.

892
00:37:39,507 --> 00:37:43,511
I mean, that was the only thing
I could make that he would eat.

893
00:37:43,594 --> 00:37:46,097
You did okay.
He's a good kid.

894
00:37:51,936 --> 00:37:56,065
So how is he?

895
00:37:56,148 --> 00:37:58,526
Well, the surgeon
has removed the tumor

896
00:37:58,609 --> 00:38:00,069
without damaging
the spinal cord.

897
00:38:00,152 --> 00:38:02,280
<i>But the infection</i>

898
00:38:02,363 --> 00:38:06,534
has caused another
intestinal perforation.

899
00:38:06,617 --> 00:38:09,453
We stopped the bleeding, but
his white count keeps falling.

900
00:38:09,537 --> 00:38:13,749
Okay.
All right.

901
00:38:13,833 --> 00:38:15,459
<i>So what now?</i>

902
00:38:15,543 --> 00:38:16,627
Another drug?

903
00:38:16,711 --> 00:38:19,714
Antibiotics?
What?

904
00:38:19,797 --> 00:38:22,466
I'm sorry.

905
00:38:22,550 --> 00:38:24,093
The reality is no matter

906
00:38:24,176 --> 00:38:26,429
what we give him,
it's unlikely

907
00:38:26,512 --> 00:38:29,807
he's gonna be able
to fight off the infections.

908
00:38:54,081 --> 00:38:57,168
Okay.
Okay.

909
00:38:57,251 --> 00:38:59,545
[beeps]

910
00:39:02,506 --> 00:39:05,468
The father and the friend are
responding well to treatment.

911
00:39:05,551 --> 00:39:09,722
Things aren't looking so good
for Carnell.

912
00:39:09,805 --> 00:39:13,684
Thank you...
for not eating.

913
00:39:15,311 --> 00:39:17,355
It was none of my business.

914
00:39:17,438 --> 00:39:21,984
They seem perfectly pleasant,
don't they?

915
00:39:22,068 --> 00:39:24,236
<i>They are.</i>

916
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,239
He was a Marine pilot.

917
00:39:27,323 --> 00:39:31,535
She was a housewife.
Married 47 years.

918
00:39:31,619 --> 00:39:33,829
They had one child.

919
00:39:33,913 --> 00:39:35,706
My mom is just
like everyone else.

920
00:39:35,790 --> 00:39:38,667
She's nice enough.

921
00:39:38,751 --> 00:39:42,922
Great sense of humor.
Hates confrontation.

922
00:39:43,005 --> 00:39:46,217
My dad's just like you.

923
00:39:46,300 --> 00:39:49,637
Not the caring-till-your-eyes
pop-out part.

924
00:39:49,720 --> 00:39:52,098
Just the insane moral compass
that won't let you lie

925
00:39:52,181 --> 00:39:54,016
to anybody about anything.

926
00:39:54,100 --> 00:39:59,480
It's a great quality for
boy scouts and police witnesses.

927
00:39:59,563 --> 00:40:02,191
Crappy quality for a dad.

928
00:40:16,997 --> 00:40:18,457
Hey.

929
00:40:18,541 --> 00:40:19,625
How you doing?

930
00:40:19,708 --> 00:40:21,961
I'm hanging in there.

931
00:40:24,338 --> 00:40:29,343
I'm sorry I lied
to you about mom.

932
00:40:29,427 --> 00:40:33,556
I'm sorry I lied to you too.

933
00:40:33,639 --> 00:40:39,061
There was nothing good
that came out of her dying.

934
00:40:39,145 --> 00:40:42,898
I'm not mad.

935
00:40:42,982 --> 00:40:44,567
I know why
you did it.

936
00:40:44,650 --> 00:40:50,030
It worked.

937
00:40:50,114 --> 00:40:53,576
I never drink and drive.

938
00:40:53,659 --> 00:40:59,331
I'm scared, Dad.

939
00:41:04,378 --> 00:41:07,673
Come on.

940
00:41:07,756 --> 00:41:10,551
There's nothing
to be scared of.

941
00:41:10,634 --> 00:41:12,136
You're gonna be just fine.

942
00:41:12,219 --> 00:41:15,556
Don't play me.

943
00:41:15,639 --> 00:41:16,682
I wanna know the truth.

944
00:41:16,765 --> 00:41:20,936
I'm telling you the truth.

945
00:41:21,020 --> 00:41:23,939
You're gonna be fine.

946
00:41:24,023 --> 00:41:26,150
I swear.

947
00:41:29,862 --> 00:41:32,948
I love you, dad.

948
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,287
I love you too.

949
00:41:53,552 --> 00:41:56,305
Why does he hate seeing
his parents?

950
00:41:56,388 --> 00:42:00,017
So his dad tells the truth,
he can't handle that?

951
00:42:00,100 --> 00:42:02,645
He hates being
a disappointment.

952
00:42:02,728 --> 00:42:06,148
He's a doctor.
World famous.

953
00:42:06,232 --> 00:42:09,902
How disappointed
can they be?

954
00:42:09,985 --> 00:42:11,320
You know
what I figure is worse

955
00:42:11,403 --> 00:42:13,906
than watching your son
become crippled,

956
00:42:13,989 --> 00:42:16,242
watching him be miserable.
