All language subtitles for House M.D. - 4x13 - No More Mr. Nice Guy.720p HDTV.CTU.en

Whoever thought walking in a circle at
two miles an hour would be draining?

Fresh air,
exercise.

You know, some things
do have their negative sides.

Our income just got cut
in half.

And we get to spend
twice as much time together.

More, if you don't leave
before your lunch hour's over.

Out of my way.

We have a legal right
to hold you up for 15 seconds.

15...

- 14,
- One.

11,

10...

Just trying to do my job.

Hey, relax...

Three more seconds,
and you can go.

Are you telling me
what to do?

It's okay.

Just take a breath.

Get the hell off me.

I think it's been 15.

You okay?

Oh, my God, Jeff!

This place is a mess.

Welcome to a world without nurses.
Here, you can start with these.

It's not my fault.
I didn't use nurses.

Cuddy was looking for you.
Said she'd send you here.

I know, that's why I'm here.

Because Cuddy hasn't found you yet.

She's gonna look everywhere
except the place she wants me to be.

- I've got an aortic dissection here.
- What's with the idiot?

Fainting spell
and recent history of dysgeusia.

Everything tastes
like lemon meringue pie.

You wanna take him?

No.

Sir.

Why do you have
two lunches in front of you?

Been here for two meals.

- And you're happy with that?
- No.

I just don't see much use
in complaining.

Seriously?

It's a very useful tool.

Complain, you make people
miserable.

They do what you want
to make the misery go away.

You probably should say something.

- Maybe I can call one of the doctors...
- They're doing their best.

What the hell?

I'm sure
it was an accident.

Is he canadian?

He's a low priority...

Is that a yes?

- He's just...
- Happy.

I gotta stop this
before it spreads.

You guys are done.

This could be
a metabolic disorder,

toxic exposure,

carcinoma of the tongue,
metastasized the brain, epilepsy, M.S.

Or it could be the flu,
and we should all be back in the ER.

No, you're ignoring
the big symptom.

What if we're looking at both the flu
and decent parenting?

Okay, you two
are perfectly healthy.

This guy wasn't pandering.
He wasn't vanilla nice.

He was nice without any aspiration,

personal gain.

I'm thinking genetic defect.

Niceness is a defect?

Three cavemen see a stranger

running towards them with a spear.
One fights, one flees,

one smiles and invites him over
for fondue.

That last guy didn't last long enough
to procreate.

And how long has the patient
been suffering?

At least as long as his wife
has known him. 11 years.

The chances of him having
an undiagnosed pathology

- for that long-
- What are you saying?

That evolution is wrong?

Where do you think we are?
21st-century america.

He's saying that statistics
are true too.

The world is a bell curve.

Most of us fall within the standard
deviation,

but there are outliers,

and if we believe
in the existence

of extreme jerkiness,
which I suspect that we do...

Then we also have to accept
the existence

of the opposite extreme.

You want it to be a symptom because
then we're supposed to be jerks,

which means you don't even
have to try to be nice.

Okay. Maybe I'm biased.

Let's take a vote.

Who thinks that niceness
is not a symptom?

And who thinks

that their vote counts?

You two,
check out his home for toxins.

- Taub and Thirty-one...
- Thirty-one?

Oh, I'm sorry, I thought that either way
was good with you.

Taub and Thirteen,

MRI for tumors
and eeg for nerve damage.

Test whatever comes out of him
for everything else.

Too much axis tilt.

Don't release until your thumb's
at the bottom of the ball.

I assume Wilson was busy.

Again.

No axis tilt.

With Amber?

Again.

Still, it was nice of you
to invite me.

This is fun.

No, it wasn't.
No, it isn't.

I didn't invite you to be nice.

I invited you because bowling
isn't one of the two things

guys do by themselves.

What's the second thing?

Other hand.

If people are incapable of being nice,

why bother having the word?

The ontological proof of niceness.

The existence of the word
proves the existence of the concept.

Look out for those minotaurs
on your drive home.

And I thought motives didn't matter.
Only results mattered.

So what are you gonna do

to screw up Wilson's relationship

so you don't have to listen to me
while you bowl?

I wish the best
for them

and their tragically deformed
children.

Well, she's good
at being bad.

You might not be able
to destroy her.

As long as I give it
my best shot.

I'm gonna hold my head high.

Cameron had
this one insufferable friend.

She wasn't gonna get rid of her,
and I sure wasn't gonna join 'em.

So I just said,
"See her on thursdays."

I know it's not as exciting
as an exploding birthday cake, but

hell,

I don't want to hang out
with her every night anyway.

That's amazing.

Cameron only has
one insufferable friend?

Joint custody.

Of Wilson?

Unless we have
another love child.

Deal with him.

He needs
a mother figure.

I'm not saying you're not entitled
to spend time with him.

I'm just saying I'm entitled too.

I don't know how to deal with him
when he's being reasonable.

This is reasonable?

This is crazy.

You're not a child.
You can make your own plans.

No, crazy is what House

would normally do in this situation

swap your lubricant with superglue.

The man knows me.

This is his way of accepting us.

It's actually
a very touching moment.

I'm proposing I get
every other day

and every other weekend.

I have yoga wednesdays.
You can have him then.

But you have to have him
home by 11:00.

We can swap weekends.

Mondays and wednesdays,
and midnight.

If he's not home till midnight,
we won't be asleep till almost 2:00.

Wilson, make a ruling.

No.

You two are like dogs

circling each other
in the park.

And I say that
with all the love in the world.

You need to sniff each other's butts,

bare your teeth, and arrive
at some strange detente.

Otherwise, you'll end up
biting each other's eyes out.

Again...

with all the love in the world.

I'll let you sniff first.

Take my deal,
or get out of my apartment.

Take my deal,

or I move in.

This guy worked
for Habitat For Humanity

- in Costa Rica.
- And coaches handicapped kids.

You think we should do a work-up
on the other coaches?

It is possible
he's too perfect.

I'm not saying he's perfect.
I'm saying he's trying to be.

That's what people do.

- What?
- That's not what people do.

People usually suck,
but they want to be good,

- want to be nice.
- House?

Exception that proves
the rule.

- What sort of argument is that?
- A bad one.

That might be relevant.

Hydrofluoric acid.

Lowers his calcium,
causes the fainting and taste issue.

But not the niceness.

Wouldn't that be nice?

You are king Solomon.

If you want us to cut him
in half, we're cool with that.

My boyfriend's too much of a wuss
to make the call for himself.

And I mean that with all the love
in the world.

I'm gonna piss off one of them,
and they both scare me.

"Your treatment of patients
is reprehensible."

- You're reading his performance review?
- I'm busy.

We have a nurses' strike.

"Your management of employees
borders on abuse."

Let's go.

No, why...

I want to hear it.

"You are overly contemptuous

- of hospital hierarchy."
- And covertly.

I suppose you didn't know about that.

"Your attitude towards
supervisory personnel

"is disrespectful, and a disturbingly
large proportion of your comments

are racist or sexist."

That top makes you look
like an afghani prostitute.

Would be an example of that.

Sign this.

I got the
It can wait.

I will sign,
if you will give us a ruling.

I will give you a ruling, if you do
the reviews on your team.

I'd be happy to continue
the mockery of this process.

What'd you offer him?

Wednesdays till 11:00 and
alternate weekends.

Wednesdays till 11:00 and
alternate weekends.

Yes.

Wednesday nights
are ladies' nights at cheetah's.

- Calcium's normal.
- Wow, it really could wait.

- Everything's normal.
- And you thought it wouldn't be.

He's a carpet cleaner. He's got a home
full of hydrofluoric acid.

His calcium
should be low.

It kinda does.
Hf causes lower levels of

Lower,
not low.

- Lower than normal.
- Lower than yesterday.

Yesterday might have been high.
What's lower than high?

He actually has hypercalcemia,

which is being lowered to normal
by the HF.

So what gives us elevated calcium,
bad taste, and fainting?

I take it you know?

Get the team.
This is gonna be fun.

Hello, again.

These people think
you are not too nice.

Too nice?

For what?

For life as we know it to have evolved
without an intelligent designer.

I'm going to prove them wrong.

Your wife is very ugly.

- Get out of here !
- Deb.

He's obviously trying
to prove a point.

I think I just did.

You're either perfect
or you're sick.

In my experience,
sick is much more common.

He's not sick. He's nice.

Nice in the sense
that your toaster is nice

for making you breakfast.

It's the only thing his wiring
will let him do.

He has Williams syndrome.

Your husband is missing
the genes

that make him suspicious.

You're wrong.

- He's...
- Relax, there's no cure.

He's gonna go right on
tasting lemon meringue pie,

fainting,
and being a sap.

- What about the other symptoms?
- He has no other symptoms.

But Williams does.

He's got teeth,

- glasses.
- Williams cuts IQ by 20.

He doesn't work
in the physics department.

Except when they spill
a black hole on their carpet.

Elfin appearance?

Yeah, he's more legolas
than keebler,

but I bet you he can still crack
off a batch of pecan sandies.

Perfect pitch?

You love to karaoke,
right?

I suck.

- Modest. Another symptom.
- No, he really does suck.

Give us a warble.

- You know any Cher?
- No.

But I know Bread.

What's the matter?

He's stroking.

Had a moment too soon.

You were wrong.

Why do people say that
with such pleasure?

- It's very hurtful, you know.
- It means the patient gets

to keep being nice.

- Why does that offend you?
- It's the way he said it.

He wasn't relieved,
he was excited.

He was also wrong.

And I say that
with no sense of pleasure.

Patient's negative for Williams which
means the stroke and everything else

- wasn't caused...
- You have a friendly demeanor,

but you sometimes get
too involved.

You relate well
to your peers and patients.

And you complete tasks

in a timely manner.

Please sign.

What the hell was that?

I have to give each of you
performance reviews.

Plenty of other conditions
can cause debilitating niceness.

How is that supposed
to help him?

I don't know.
How's it supposed to help Wilson?

Cross out Wilson's name and the date,
and then fill in your own name.

The point of a review
is to give feedback to help.

I'm thinking neurosyphilis.

Wouldn't show up on the MRI
without contrast.

I'll go run the tests.

He doesn't think
it's syphilis,

but he's gonna go run
those tests anyway.

Because he doesn't know.

- That's why we do tests.
- Because he's a wimp.

Because he's afraid
of you.

You want me to intimidate him
into not being afraid?

- Not sure I know how to do that.
- Reviews make a difference.

People have to listen,
they have to learn.

I don't think that the right time
to tell the dog not to pee on the rug

is semi-annually.

You don't want to do
the paperwork.

I am concerned
about the rainforest.

I'll do it.

I know.

I don't have syphilis.

You don't know.

How many ways are there
to get it?

You can know
who you had sex with.

- you can't know who she...
- I do.

Not for sure.

It's a waste of time.

I had a stroke.

You can't keep wasting time.

- We were tested for the peace corps.
- Ten years ago.

You haven't been with your wife
every minute of every day.

You think I'm naive,
don't you?

I think you're...
Yeah.

I know my wife.

She's not perfect.

I'm not perfect.

But she loves me.

And she's always loved me.

Every minute,
every day.

You're 15 minutes late.

Have you heard
the good news?

Miley Cyrus is playing
a third night at the Spectrum?

Happiness is possible.

And not just in this life,
but in the next

Oh, you're selling
religion.

I'm sorry,
I bought some islam yesterday.

Well, it's where your light
shows signs before mending

Have a good evening.

- You're late.
- 15 minutes.

16 minutes,
my 16 minutes.

So keep him
an extra 16 minutes.

You hear that?
She doesn't care.

You're going mini-golfing.
What's it matter?

- You got a tee off time?
- It matters because you don't get

to decide what matters.

It was my fault.
I had to take a shower.

Which was my fault.

I had to take a dump.

Anything else I don't need to know
before you leave?

Have fun on your playdate.

You've got mommy's numbers,
right?

Daddy needs a drink.

I was thinking

- if we discount the niceness issue...
- Sit down.

- I think it's a heart defect.
- Nothing on the echo.

Could be a patent foramen ovale.
It explains the stroke,

and the syncope, and a PFO wouldn't
show up on a routine echo.

I'm gonna do a bubble test.

You got a minute first?

Sure.

I think you've shown remarkable strength
in a difficult situation.

Are you giving me
a performance review?

A good one.

I'm gonna do a bubble test.

There was enough blood left over from
his admission work-up to run the VDRL.

- You doubted your patient.
- No,

what I thought
didn't matter.

House said he wouldn't let us go on
until we ruled out neurosyphilis.

It's not neurosyphilis;
it's a PFO.

It's neurosyphilis.

The tests were positive.

It's always the same conversation.
They tell you you must be mistaken,

which is why I always run
the tests twice,

and then they blame the other guy,
which makes sense if they're innocent,

but obviously,
half of 'em aren't.

They don't seem to get
that they're busted.

Scientifically proven.

Unless your spouse
cheated too.

Exactly. That's what you're praying for
in that moment.

That she cheated too.

If she doesn't kill you,
you know that she did.

You know she betrayed you.
And then,

you realize
that that sucks worse.

- The test must be wrong.
- I ran it twice.

Not that test.

The one I took ten years ago.

What other explanation
is there?

- He really sees no other possibility.
- Did you have an affair?

- No.
- Then why aren't you angry with him?

You ever know anybody
who's just too nice?

No.

It's annoying.
Then you realize

it's annoying because
they remind you of what you are not.

That you'll never be
as good as they are.

And then you think,
why can't i?

And before you know it,

that naive idiot
you laughed at

has made you
a better person.

You really think

I've been in love
all these years with a symptom?

If syphilis caused
lesions in his brain,

and the lesions caused
personality changes,

you may notice a change in him
as his condition improves.

I know my husband.
He's not gonna change.

You should get yourself tested.

So much for the bell curve.

How can House be an ass
without it being an illness,

but niceness
is a biological crime?

You got five bucks?

Uh, yeah.

Niceness just cost you
five bucks.

Being an ass
generally turns a profit.

Kutner, could you excuse us?

I need to do Taub's review.

You can stay.

I think it would be better
if this was done privately.

This isn't gonna be done.

What is it with you guys?
I've given you advice before.

Not as our boss.

What's the difference?
Advice is advice.

Fair enough.
I'll go first.

You demonstrate a great air
of confidence,

- which is really pissing me off.
- House authorized me...

How long have you known him?
He's using you.

- I volunteer cause I knew he wouldn't.
- He could care less about paperwork.

He's using you
to screw with you.

He knows it'll annoy us.

We'll stand up to you, which
will force you to confront the fact

that even though you think you're our
superior, you're no different from us.

He gave you authority to keep you
in your place.

It's true.

Thanks.

- Not him, what'd he say?
- Nothing, what's true?

There's something
wrong with this guy,

it means there's something wrong
with House.

Are you trying
to get me drunk?

- What time is it?
- 10:30.

Ooh.
She'll kill you.

I'll get you home
before lights out.

Great. Then she'll kill me.

If I get...
If I get any more drunk,

then I'm...

It...

Might not work.

If you, uh,
know what I mean.

Really?

You'd think that one or more
of your ex-wives

- would have mentioned that to me.
- They told you?

Wait.

Why do you want to get
Amber angry?

- Because I'm your friend.
- No, no, no.

You said you approved,
you said you were taking

the high road.
For how long, the first exit?

Hello, and thank you
for saving me

from being righteoused
to death.

- Patient's vomiting blood.
- Hematemesis could indicate...

Don't put it on the board.

- You don't think it's a symptom?
- I think it's my marker.

He has syph. And what?

And syph, it can cause hematemesis.

Not everyone agrees.

How-how could you

Cause if you all though
it was just syph,

you wouldn't have woken me up
in the middle of the night.

If it was just syph,
he wouldn't be getting worse.

- He's already on penicillin.
- Bleeding's probably

from liver damage,
probably caused by ethanol

in the cleansers
or the penicillin.

Two more probablys
than I like to hear.

Liver tests and serologies
are gonna take a full day.

Full night,
actually.

Guy might not make it
to brunch.

Yes, I knew about your issue
with alcohol.

Yes, I intentionally

got you drunk to provoke
an argument between you and Amber.

Why I would do such a thing
is an interesting question.

What's more interesting

is that you knew
as much as I did

and you're the one
who's pouring down the drinks.

Why?

Because I thought I was out
having fun with a friend.

I didn't know
the drinks had subtext.

I gotta get home.

Ggt's normal.

Rules out alcohol.

How about serum protein?

It's positive.

Kinda assumed he had protein.

It's how much protein he has
we care about.

It's positive
for syphilis.

You mind if I give you
a performance review?

Not the patient.

House.

He has syphilis.

What happened?

Every time I searched
my soul...

I found Anna.

Are you gonna tell Marie?

I have to.

It will destroy her.

Could it be any worse on her

Yes?

You might want
to turn off the tv.

I'm multi-tasking.

Also doing my taxes.

And Cuddy.

What'd you find out?

The patient has hepatitis.

I assume from your omission
of the word "viral"

before the hep
that it's not another STD.

Put him on steroids
and test him for sarcoid

before the liver failure
becomes liver failed.

We're all doing this.

There's more?

You have syphilis.

No, I don't.

One of us found a vial
of your blood in the lab...

Which one of you?

It's treatable.

We filled a prescription.

You okay?

So this is why he is
who he is.

- We don't know.
- We know.

It's not just a coincidence.

Wilson says
he's always been a jerk.

- But he got worse.
- After his leg.

The leg was a coincidence.

Did you sleep with him?

So what's gonna happen?
What's gonna change?

- Maybe he'll be less of a jerk.
- Or less of a doctor.

You gotta be a jerk
to be a good doctor?

I don't know.
Maybe House does.

Why aren't you answering me?

Because it's none
of their business.

It's none of your business.

I think the STD
makes it my business.

Humans are complicated.

Humans are simple.

A million different things
make us who we are.

You change one,
you change everything.

If Mozart was better adjusted,

decides to play catch one day,
maybe there's no "Magic Flute".

You did, didn't you?

There's something
I need to tell you.

You returned him drunk.

On time.

- Drunk.
- On time.

No tag backs.

The purpose of the time
was to give me time.

So you didn't have sex?

- I like sex.
- Then you can have it tonight.

The L Word is on.

You don't get to decide
what matters.

Either you're genuinely afraid

i'm gonna make him
miserable,

or you're afraid
i'm gonna make him happy,

or you simply can't stop
screwing

with anything that moves
It doesn't really matter because

whatever the reason,
you'll only get worse.

Until either I stop seeing Wilson,

or I stop you.

What do you think
i'm gonna choose?

If you terminate
the agreement,

it's not gonna bring peace
in the mideast.

I'm not terminating the agreement.
I'm amending the agreement.

I'm adding penalty clauses.

Fine.

Whoever violates it
gets their finger cut off.

- I'm serious.
- So am I.

You want people to drive safer,
take out the airbags

and attach a machete
pointing at their neck.

No one will drive
over three miles per hour.

- I'm not cutting
- We'll figure it out.

On your time.

You know she's certifiable,
right?

I got the forms
in my desk.

Where is she wrong?

What were you gonna
tell me?

Nothing.

You're punishing me?

I needed to tell you something
privately.

I'm not gonna tell her.

You'll tell her.

She's your girlfriend.

- You should tell her.
- You're my friend.

It's not the same.

Don't sulk.

Where am I wrong?

Your management style
is counterproductive.

You gave me authority over the team,
just so they could undercut

Ticking the clap-addled?

That's sort of tasteless.

I didn't feel like waiting
until your genitals cleared up.

You need to formalize
my authority over the team.

- No, I don't.
- You don't think I'm qualified?

Compared to those three?

You wanna punish Cuddy
for hiring me without...

I like Cuddy.

I like parts of her.

You wanna crush the team
by crushing me?

I want to empower them.

Those three idiots need to respect you.

They should respect you.

They should be afraid of you.

So I have to humiliate you.

If the team fears you,
they won't question you,

if they don't question you,
they won't get answers

if they don't get any answers,
they're useless.

Mocking me saves lives?

The hospital will probably
build you a statue one day.

You know, with a "kick me" sign
on the back.

When you think about it,
the more I mock you,

the more it shows I have respect
for you.

Or you made up that b. s.
Because you like humiliating me.

Wouldn't rule that out completely.

- You busy?
- Almost done.

So just remember,
the rabbit goes around the tree

and jumps down the hole.

Negative for sarcoidosis.

Run him for everything you can think of.

Lepto, schisto, hemo,

and the fourth Marx Brother
nobody ever heard of.

You bitch!

I just went to get us some lunch,
you were asleep.

You moved my book.

Jeff. Calm down.

It's just the drugs.

The drugs didn't move my book

Jeff?

My husband's having a heart attack
Can somebody help me, please?

Somebody help me, please!

She saved his life.

Or she scabbed.

Depends on your point of view.

So what do we think?

New symptom?

Or just a wife beater?

Hey.

Time for you to take
this baby for a spin.

We, loaded him full of prednisone

to try to fix the liver.

Good news is, he's running out
of organs to fail.

Prednisone could cause

'roid rage, which could cause
hypertension,

- which results
- 'roid rage after six hours?

At that rate, by sundown,
he'll have eaten most of us.

It still could be penicillin.
Allergic reaction

How does a fried liver
put him into a rage?

It's not frying his liver,
frying his syphilis.

The penicillin's working.
The real patient is emerging.

So syphilis prevents domestic violence.

I'm gonna be
more attractive to the ladies.

I was gonna test for a heart issue
before the syphilis.

PFO could explain the heart attack and

reduced blood flow to the
brain could explain the rage.

Well, all good ideas.

Okay, let's take a vote.

How many think it's the'roids talking?

And who's for the penicillin?

And how about whatever she said?

Someone hasn't raised their hand.

Whatever I decide?

You're setting me up.

Why would I do that?

PFO.

The PFOS have it.

I just hope the bubble test is positive.

Or it's no more mr. Nice guy.

We gave van gogh chelation therapy.

Turned him into a house painter.

Maybe not.

Maybe we just put hitler on ritalin.

Are you comparing House to Hitler?

Oh God.

Just because I don't think he's Hitler
doesn't mean I slept with him.

I don't sleep with everyone
who's better than hitler.

Maybe Taub is right.

Maybe this is good.

This is not good.

Well, he respected our opinions,

he mocked himself,
he was civil, he shared.

He didn't care.

He never cares.

He didn't vote.

He always cared about one thing.

Solving the puzzle.

But he was irrelevant to that diagnosis.

He had no opinion of his own.

He now cares about...

nothing.

You had no choice; you had to treat him.

What's done is done.

You know that thing
I was gonna tell you,

I gotta tell you. I gotta tell someone.

You've got to swear not to tell c. b.

Whatever.

That's not swearing, that's shrugging.

It's actually the opposite of swearing.

I won't tell amber.

My team thinks that I have syphilis.

- Do you?
- Not yet.

Why do they think you do?

'Cause i knew that they had access

to an old blood sample,

and I knew they'd test it
sometime for something.

Why would you swap your blood?
What are you afraid they'll find?

Shut up, ou're missing the point.
Now, they think that I'm on penicillin.

Is this some clever practical joke
that I'm not aware of?

And as I get better,

I get nicer.

That's brilliant.

Foreman thinks
I actually value his opinion.

Thank god he said PFO, or I'd
have had to do some dancing.

You got time for bowling?

Come on, it's work hours.

I'll get my shoes.

- So we don't need to talk about
- No.

- You're gonna keep screwing
- Yeah.

You're gonna keep talking about it.
We are who we are.

I'll get my shoes.

Okay, got a good view of the heart.

What if we lower House's dosage?

Maybe stabilize him,

he doesn't get worse,
he doesn't get better.

Quite the line to walk. If we're wrong,

he dies of neurosyphilis.

If we don't, other people die.

Other people who aren't our boss.

People.

This sucks.

The guy had a gift. I'd kill.

Hi, what?

House doesn't have syphilis.

He switched the blood samples.

- How do you know?
- House told Wilson.

I wanted to ruin House's day.

See ya.

- We're idiots.
- We're not idiots.

Positive blood test means
positive blood test.

Apparently not.

There they are, let's see if they...

What are you doing? We're not done.

He doesn't have syphilis.

I know.

Patient tested positive
for syphilis, right?

Is this some sort of recap?

But why did he test
positive for syphilis?

Oh, I know this.

Either, one, he has syphilis...

- I was gonna say that.
- Or two,

the test was wrong twice,

or three, he gave us
someone else's blood.

- Who?
- Amber.

Get that idiotic smile out of my face.

I gotta go on a killing spree.

Or, four, he has something that
tests positive for syphilis.

It's not Chagas.

He worked in Costa Rica
before he was married.

Is two a spree,
or do I have to kill you too?

Chagas wouldn't explain the niceness.

I've heard of remote tribes
that actually practice

acts of kindness.

Or the Chagas caused encephalitis.

The MRI showed no sign

Until we started him on steroids,
compromised the immune system,

and let the infection flare up.

I did another one.

It's not much.

It's plenty.

You figured this out
because I don't have syphilis?

Damn.

That should have been my epiphany.

Good news, bad news.

Good news is

we know what you have,

it's treatable, you're gonna live.

Really?

What's the bad news?

The cure is a grueling course of pills.

It's like one a day for a month.

Now you're just trying to make me laugh.

Yeah, like that's a challenge.

You have Chagas disease.

It's a parasite.

It's been asymptomatic for ten years.

Not quite. Your brain's been swollen.
Not enough to see,

but enough to alter your personality.

We're back to that.

He screamed at you. You don't think
he could change?

That was because of the drugs.

So you think drugs are more
powerful than parasites?

I mean,

the ones we're gonna give you to treat
the parasites obviously are

I stand by the principle.

I'm not worried.

Neither am i.

Neither am i.

But that's because I don't care.

Reviews?

It was brought to my attention
that on occasion, I am not respectful

of hospital hierarchy.

The word was "contemptuous."

Well-phrased, thoughtful.

Identically phrased.

- These are all the same.
- Because, underneath it all,

we are all the same.

And Foreman refused to type his up.

Well, it's more than I expected.

There's an extra one in there.

"Your treatment of patients
is non-existent

because you're not a doctor,
you're an administrator."

Foreman convinced me
that these could be helpful.

"Your management of employees is

well, let's face it,
they're outside carrying signs."

The strike ended.

The nurses have been back
for two shifts already.

You'd think I'd have noticed.

What exactly did they do around here?

"You act like employees

should fear and respect you,
but your eyes tell us

but your eyes tell us nothing
'cause we're looking at your boobs,

which tell us that you're desperate
to have someone jump on you

and tell you they love you
one grunted syllable at a time."

"What you want, you run away from"
"What you need,

you don't have a clue."

"What you've accomplished,
makes you proud.

But you're still miserable."

Please sign.

I got a call from Amber today.

Says there's been
a violation of your contract.

You've been seeing Wilson
on her time.

She breached confidentiality.

You can let it slide, officer.

We're even.

Yes, you are.

You're both losing fingers.

Look what I found.

Nice.

They think you might be able
to come home tomorrow.

Oh, yeah? That's good.

What's the matter?

The ketchup.

There's something wrong with that.

Tastes fine.

- Anything else?
- Everything else is great.

I'm just I don't know.

I guess I don't like ketchup anymore.

Wonder what else I don't like.

Roll over.

We need a tougher punishment.

Come over to the poopy side.

Where are you two going friday night?

Dinner at L'Auberge.

You're lying.

Of course I am.
