All language subtitles for House - [5x15] - Unfaithful

That's okay, Eileen.
I got this.

You sure?

Yeah, you get home.

Thanks, Danny.
See you in the morning.

I'll be here.

(EXHALES)

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

(SIGHS)

Food's gone, Daryl.
We're closed.

You wouldn't happen
to have an extra coat
in there, would you?

You're wearing a coat.
A winter coat, man.
It's cold.

Come on.

Here.

(SIGHS)

Rangers? You expect me
to wear this in Jersey?

Come on, man,
where's your
sense of humor?

Good night, Daryl.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Go away.

(CONTINUES KNOCKING)

That's not funny, freak.

No one is laughing, Daniel.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

You doing
anything Friday?

I'm taking
a lovely young lady
to the Philharmonic.

Is that your way of
saying you're having
sex with a hooker?

Two. Can't create
a harmonic with
just one.

Well, I was hoping
you might be available
for Rachel's Simchat Bat.

It's a...

Jewish baby
naming ceremony.

A time-honored tradition,
dating all the way back
to the 1960s.

My house at 7:00.

It'll just be the rabbi
and a few friends
and some family.

Nothing like welcoming
a baby into the world

with a completely
naked display
of hypocrisy.

There'll be
plenty of wine

and nice people
you can quietly mock.

Wish I could,

but I already put down
a deposit on 16 crates
of Jell-O.

House.

It's one evening.
I'd like you to be there.

Religious hokum
against sponge bath.
Can I get back to you?

Can I help you?

Just browsing, thanks.

Happy to be
underachieving again?

Running the ER
is slacker heaven.

Looking for anything
in particular?

Not any more.

Where's this guy?
Why?

'Cause he's my next patient.
It'd be rude of me not to
introduce myself.

He's a drunk priest
who hallucinated Jesus.

Afraid you might have
missed something?

Afraid you're wasting
everyone's time?

It's obviously either
alcohol or exhaustion.

So, you admit
you have no idea which?

I admit that
I'm too busy to care
who you're screwing with.

Don't thank me.

Just knowing I can be
of assistance is
thanks enough.

You went out of
your way to pick him?
This is nothing.

There are
no small cases...

Any guesses where
this joke is going?

Could be
psychomotor epilepsy.

TAUB: Could be alcohol.

Shouldn't we let
the ER rule the
obvious out before...

Could be atropine toxicity,
occipital lobe tumor.

You know something
about this case
you're not telling us?

Why would you think that?
'Cause you wanna
screw with us.

Or screw with
a hallucinating priest.

Both are possible.
There's only one way
to find out.

Run an EEG for epilepsy,
CT his brain for tumors.

And go check his
house of God for toxins.

Foreteen, hold up.

This department
is broken,

and I'm not going to
take a real case
until it's fixed.

Job or relationship,
your choice.

What?

To put it in terms
you might better
understand,

if you don't split,
you must quit.

The drug trial is over.
I'm out, she's out.

Don't care.

We're adults,
we can handle this.

You just have to
give us a chance.

No, you're not,
no, you can't,
and, no, I don't.

Mull it over.
You got till the end of
this fake case to decide.

I wasn't drunk.

I had one or two drinks.

People often underestimate
alcohol's effect on their...

I was on my way to six.
I know how alcohol affects me.

This wasn't the alcohol.

You lived in Manhattan
for three years,
then a year in Oregon,

18 months in New Mexico,
less than a year
in Wisconsin,

and now you've
been living in Trenton
for the last six months.

Yeah.

The more we know about you,
the more likely it is
we can help you.

Mmm. It's not medically
relevant, so...

No way to know,
unless you went
to medical school.

(SIGHS)

Four years ago,
a teen in a youth group
at my church

accused me of
inappropriate contact.

I was innocent,
but the church decided
to transfer me,

said it would be easier
for all involved.

When the parishioners
at the new church got wind
of why I'd been transferred,

they were unhappy.

I was sent off
again and again.

And how is any of that
medically relevant?

So, the kid lied?

He was confused.

Confused whether you
molested him or not?

Okay, you wanted to know
why I moved around so much,
and I told you.

How about telling me
why I was hallucinating?

Syphilis could explain
the hallucination.

I'm not sexually active.

You don't have to admit
you did anything
with the kid.

You weren't
always a priest.

I wanted to be
since I was 12.

I entered the seminary
when I was 17.

Maybe it wasn't
a hallucination.

Maybe it really
was Jesus.

I'm not insane.

KUTNER: Seeing Jesus
makes you insane?

Bit of an odd attitude
coming from a priest.

Well, it's just a job now.
The fairytale ended
a long time ago.

You're a wuss,
part wimp, part puss.

I have no choice.
I'm part of the ceremony.

I thought you were
already circumcised.

It's one night
for a friend.

What about the friend
who has two tickets to see
Brubeck at the Blue Note?

I thought you had
an orgy planned.

I lied.

Are you lying about
the Brubeck tickets?

Yes, but only
to save you
from yourself.

I'll be fine,
and so will Cuddy,
if you don't show up.

I'm surprised
she even invited you.

It is oddly flattering.

God, I'm so sick
of his stupid stunts.

Everybody has to
put up with their
boss' stupid stunts.

No, they don't.
There's HR, there's Cuddy,
there's other jobs.

House doesn't listen to HR,
Cuddy'll let him fire us
before she fires him,

and I don't want
another job.

Why do you cling to him?
Why do you defend him?

Just because I don't want
to be unemployed doesn't
mean I'm co-dependent.

I'm not saying
you're co-dependent,
I'm saying you're scared.

(SIGHS)

You know what?
You're right.

So, you wanna quit?

No, I wanna stop
a stupid stunt.

House doesn't want
either one of us to
quit. He wants this.

He's got two lab rats
in a maze and thrown in
one piece of cheese.

(CHUCKLES)

So, what do we do?

Nothing.

HOUSE: Cool.

It's cool he's
a child molester?

It's cool that a priest
doesn't believe in God.

It's cool that God
did to him what
he did to the kid.

Allegedly.

You think
he's innocent?

He had honest eyes?

And you think he's guilty,
which explains why you're
dying to discharge him.

I'm dying to discharge him
because he's not sick,

not because
he's a pedophile.
Allegedly.

You actually believe
the kid got confused?

If everybody lies,
that includes
teenage boys.

Aren't we lucky to have
such an interesting patient?

Had. There's nothing
wrong with him.

World's most boring case
just became a page turner,

and you want to tear out
the last chapter?

You want to
examine his character,
go to his soup kitchen.

We're done testing him
for things he doesn't have.

Bad news for Foreman
and Thirteen.

HOUSE: Case is over.

We're not
splitting up.

So, which one of you
is taking a hike?

And neither of us
is quitting.

Interesting.

You were fine with Chase
and Cameron dating.

You obviously don't
actually have an...

You're fired.

How long you
gonna keep this up?

We know you're not...
Wrong. Again.

In fact,
in the last few weeks,

it's hard to remember
a correct call you made.

If Chase had compromised
his professional judgment
to help Cameron,

I would have fired
his ass, too.

FOREMAN:
When my mistake blew up,

you did everything to
keep me from contacting
the drug company.

To save your license,
not your job,

and definitely
not your relationship.

So, badge.

Fine.

Why don't you see
if you can find us
a real case?

How can you discharge me
when you have no idea
what's wrong?

We know what's wrong,
and now that you've
slept it off...

It's not just
the hallucination.

I feel nauseous,
my foot feels numb,
like it's fallen asleep.

You didn't mention
that before.

I didn't notice it before.

Are you hiding
from someone?

Why are you so intent
on staying here?

I don't feel well.
I know there's something
wrong with me.

Which foot?

My left.

Oh, God.

What the hell is that?
What is that?

Your toe just fell off.

(SIGHS)

Must be my lucky day.

New symptom means
the old symptom
was a real symptom,

and I get to keep
our pederast priest
after all.

Where are Foreman
and Thirteen?

They left.

Leprosy could
cause necrosis
and hallucinations.

Why would they leave?

Because Foreman
doesn't work here
any more,

and Thirteen is mad
that I fired him.

Don't worry,
she'll be back.

She'll be pissed off,
she'll want to take
a stand,

and then Foreman
will convince her
there's no reason

both of them
should be out of a job.

Leprosy's a bad fit.

Why'd you fire Foreman?

I gave him a choice,
split or quit.

He chose neither.
How about ergotism?

He's giving up
his career for her?

He's giving up
this career for her.

No, normal white blood count.
Carbon monoxide poisoning?

They're good doctors.

Separately,
they're great doctors.

Better than you.
Together they're morons.

Go, check out the house
that they would have checked
had this been a real case.

And page Thirteen,
tell her to run
the blood for CO,

and get the priest in
a hyperbaric chamber before
anything else falls off.

So, what are we
gonna do now?

I get a letter
of recommendation from
Cuddy and find a new job.

Oh, that's it?
You're just
gonna give up?

House was right.
Our relationship
did affect my judgment.

Then I should quit.
It'll be easier for me
to find another job.

Not like this one.

(SIGHS)

We should both quit.

What's that gonna
accomplish?

Don't worry,
I'll be fine.

We'll be fine.

(PAGER BEEPING)

(SIGHS)

Go ahead.

I'll see you tonight?

I'll be home early.

KUTNER: You really think
House is done with Foreman?

TAUB: If you ask me,
Foreman should be
done with Thirteen.

He's not gonna get
a better job,

which means he'll end up
resenting her for losing
this one,

which she'll
end up resenting.

Or the hardship
will bring them
closer together,

she'll invite friends over
for Foreman to share.

No leaks from the heater.

She's not a nympho,
she's bisexual,

which, by the way,
means she's accustomed
to partners

who don't need a map
to find the treasure.

CO poisoning
might have come
from these cigarettes.

Not unless he was
smoking them in a bell jar.

And even if you know
where the treasure is,

it can still be
pretty hard to dig it up
without a shovel.

You can buy a shovel.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Let's see,
how do I keep House

from ruining
my precious display
of religious hypocrisy?

I know,
I'll pressure him
to attend,

knowing that he'll
never agree to anything
I actually want him to do.

I didn't pressure you,
I invited you.

And there's nothing
hypocritical about
recognizing your heritage.

So, you keeping
kosher now?

Wearing four-cornered
garments?

Slaughtering heifers
to the god Ra?

Wait, is that
one of your people?

Do it all, do nothing
or option C,

you're a liar
and a hypocrite.

House,
for better or for worse,
you are a part of my life.

It isn't a ploy,
it's a sincere invitation.

I honestly want you to come.

Wouldn't miss it
for the world.

I'm glad.

You idiot.
I was free and clear.

Now he's coming,
and it's your fault.

Since when have
your failed attempts

at communication
through lies
become my fault?

Since you forgot
how to keep your
mouth shut.

You messed it up,
and now you're
gonna fix it.

And you're gonna
keep my name out of it.

KUTNER: How is he?
THIRTEEN: Stable.

Necrosis doesn't look
to be spreading.

I was talking about Foreman.
Is he really gonna leave?

That's usually
what people do
when they get fired.

Why are you
biting my head off?

I was just wondering
what he was gonna do.

You're right, I'm sorry.
It's not your fault.

It's not House's
fault, either.

He gave you
guys a chance,
you blew it.

He didn't give us a chance,
he gave us an ultimatum.

I would have thought
five years here would
buy a mistake or two.

Help me!

Help me.

I can't breathe.
Feels like someone's
sitting on my chest.

Looks like
a heart attack.

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

I assume you've heard.

I can't override him.

I'm not asking you
to override him.

I'm asking for a letter
of recommendation.

Eric, the reality here is,
House should have fired you.

You falsified
medical records,

put this hospital's
reputation in jeopardy.

You're lucky
you still have
a license.

I can't get a decent position
at another hospital without
a recommendation.

I'm sorry.

Chest pain wasn't
angina. EKG ruled
out heart attack.

So, the good news is,
he didn't have
a heart attack.

The bad news is,
I apparently fired
the only guy

who actually knows
what a heart attack
looks like.

So, the man of God
who doesn't believe in God

had a heart attack
that isn't a heart attack.

Do I know how to pick
awesome cases or what?

Could be
a clotting disorder.

Three different symptoms,
three different clots?

I know.
How cool is that?
You two do an angio.

You don't want to work,
so why don't you just go
get me a lottery ticket?

The sicker he gets,
the luckier I feel.

KUTNER: Where are
you going?

I've been wanting
to introduce myself.

You really a virgin?

You have to treat me,
you don't have to
believe me.

And before we treat you,
we have to diagnose you.

Not knowing whether
we can believe you is
making that difficult.

Everything I've
told you is true.

You lost your faith
because a teenager
got confused.

And my church abandoned me,
and my God forsook me,

and I couldn't come up
with a reason why a god
would do that.

God gave the church
and the kid free will.

Their exercise of that
free will hurt you.

Means you're just
a victim of God's
gift to mankind.

Oh, yeah.
God wants life
to have meaning.

Life's meaningless
without free will.

With free will,
there's always suffering.
So God wants suffering.

I got tired of that
argument before I even
finished saying it.

And even if I bought that,
what the hell is God doing?
Just the big stuff?

The acts of God,
the hurricanes,
the earthquakes,

the random killings
of millions of
innocent people?

Then we better damn pray.

God, I wish you
weren't a pedophile.

Lungs are clean.
No embolism, no pleurisy,
no pneumonia.

I'm sorry,
this is going to hurt.

No, it's fine.

KUTNER: No pain at all?

No, why?

Because there should be.

You feel that?

No.

Regional anesthesia's
a new symptom.

Unless the chest pain
is related to the numbness.

It's not circulatory,
it's neurological.

Run a nerve
conduction study.

And be careful.
If you kill him,

he'll be dancing
with the Dark One.

Why the hell
are you going to
Cuddy's baby naming?

It's a religious ceremony,
it's boring.

Why waste a good evening
that could be much
better spent

in a drunken stupor,
feeling sorry for yourself?

Okay.

Okay? Okay, you won't go?

Okay, your obligation
to Cuddy is fulfilled.

(SIGHS)

Why are you doing this?

Why did Hillary
conquer Everest?

You always have a reason.
It's usually a bad one,
but a reason.

She's being childish.

See, that's an example
from the bad category.
Is it resentment?

The stork brought home
a new baby and you don't
want to share Mommy,

or you just can't stand
to see others happy?

She's trying to play me.
If I let her succeed,
the terrorists win.

(BOTH CHATTERING)

I heard there might be
an opening in the ER.

Foreman's a neurologist,
that's not where he...

I did an ER rotation
in Miami.

If I can find another
position, I figure House
will rehire Foreman.

Don't quit.

Cuddy wouldn't
give Foreman
a recommendation.

He's not gonna be able
to find a decent job.

Foreman shouldn't
leave, either.

You think they
should split up?

Office romances
are a bad idea.

We beat some
very long odds.

Wow, honey,
save the gushy stuff
for the wedding.

House is
playing with you.

If you let him get away
with it, he won't
respect you anyway.

Or House is helping you.

He knows it probably
won't work out,

and he's actually
doing you a favor.

Yeah, that sounds
a lot more like House.

I know they're looking
for someone at Mercy.
I'll make a call.

Is your boss
always like that?

Usually worse.

Finding a fellow atheist
always makes his day.

You think it's possible
maybe God's testing
your faith?

No, I already failed.
There'd be no point in
what he's doing to me now.

Got something. Looks like
intercostal neuralgia.

BRESSON: What's that?

Something's traumatizing
one of the nerves that
runs along your ribs.

Explains the chest pain
and numbness.

Could also cause
muscle atrophy.

Does it do anything
to the eyes?
Why? What's wrong?

You're seeing Jesus again?

I'm seeing nothing.
My right eye went blind.

TAUB: Ophthalmological
exam's normal.

Nothing structurally
wrong with the eye.

His heart rate's down,
sensory loss is becoming
more diffuse,

progressive muscle
weakness. He's
shutting down.

It's got to be
something systemic,
like autoimmune.

CSF was clear
for Guillain-Barré.
Cancer?

TAUB: Lmaging studies
have been clear for tumors.

Then that leaves
infection.

He'd be brimming
with white blood cells.

Or we're at
the backstage door of
a Duran Duran concert.

Hundreds of screaming girls
clustered around.

What does that mean?

That girls like
rock bands.

The presence of the fans
indicates the presence
of the band.

Different night.
Same band, same door.

Now there's not
a girl in sight.

What does that mean?

Sorry, I don't speak
hair band.

They weren't a hair band,
they were new romantics.

The band already left?

Nope. Band's still there,
still rocking out.

When does the absence
of the fans not indicate
the absence of the band?

When it's 2009.
There aren't any
Duran Duran fans.

They don't make them
any more.

If there's no infection,
it's because there aren't
any fans, no white cells.

You think his spleen?

Why do I bother with these
great metaphors if I still
have to spell it out?

Yes, I think
it's his spleen.
Go get a biopsy.

I'll try to get
New Moon on Monday
out of my head.

Why are you
talking this time?

If I quit,
will you rehire Foreman?

Why?

He can't find
another job, I can.

And you're willing to make
that sacrifice for him?

Yes.

Does Foreman know
about this plan?

Yes.

Well, if he's okay with it,
who am I to say no?

KUTNER: Hold still.

You think it's my spleen?

(SIGHS) That's what
they're testing.

So, if I happen to cure you,
what happens then?

You start thinking
that God was working
through me,

this is some
sort of miracle?

Do you think
I'm an idiot?

That's what I'm testing.

Losing my faith
wasn't a choice I made.

It happened,
it's gone, for good.

But if it can
magically disappear,
it can magically reappear.

And that's what
you're hoping.

Your job...
Sucks.

That's my point.
You could make more
money frapping decafs,

and yet you're still
ministering to the meek.

Why do the Lord's work
if the Lord has left
the building?

I've been with the church
my entire adult life.

It's my only
marketable skill.

I detect the stink
of leftover faith.

You want to
talk hypocrisy,
what about you?

You act like
you don't care
about anyone,

but here you are,
saving lives.

Solving puzzles.
Saving lives is just
collateral damage.

Nice try. I don't think
you're looking for somebody
to prove you right,

I think you're looking
for somebody to prove you
wrong, to give you hope.

You want to believe,
don't you?

Yeah. I want to walk out
and find myself in a forest
of whore trees.

But I don't think it's
a good idea to tell people
to go fornicate with fruit.

Hey, I was just
talking about you.

Well,
not you specifically,
whores and hypocrisy.

(SIGHS) You were right.
I don't want you there.

It's a special occasion,
filled with love
and acceptance,

and the last thing I need
is someone there who's filled
with loathing and contempt.

Okay.

That's it?

You're really
not coming?

I'm really not coming.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Gosh, I feel so grown-up.

He's obviously just
jerking you around.

Wants to see
if you're serious.

If you just stick it out,
I think he'll bring
Foreman back.

I don't.
And even if I'm wrong,

I think you should
still split up.

It's just a matter of time
before one of you finds

the other in bed
with another woman.

This coming from
the relationship expert.

12 years and counting.

Hey, if you can
make it that long,
then anyone can.

Funny how the two people
in the room who think
relationships are easy

are both single.

I don't think
they're easy.

That's why I think
if you find something
that could be good,

you should
hang on to it.

Everything could be good,
very little ever is.

His spleen is fine.
Just some insignificant
traces of minor bugs.

Nothing that'd
make him sick.

Which minor bugs?

Why do people
suddenly find religion
when they have kids?

Fear of the unknown.

Cornerstone of faith.

I think it makes
perfect sense.

So it makes sense
because it doesn't
make sense?

The fact that
you're railing about it
doesn't make a lot of sense.

You really got a thing
for your boss, huh?

I've got a thing
for my boss's thing.

She doesn't have
a thing per se.
I'm big on metaphors.

What about you?
Twenty-nine years
of celibacy.

What's holding
you back now?

Who wants a relationship
with a priest?

Who wants
a relationship?

House.

It's the holy water.

We assumed if it was
an infection, it had to be
something big and nasty.

But he has pneumocystis,

a harmless bug
that's everywhere and
never makes anyone sick,

unless they have
a compromised
immune system.

So Father Nietzsche has AIDS.

Impossible.

I've never had
a blood transfusion,

I've never done IV drugs,
I've never had sex.

So prove it.
Have an AIDS test.

No. I know
I don't have AIDS.

We can't treat you
until we know what it is.

A negative result
proves nothing.

On the off chance
it's a false positive,

I permanently lose any
credibility I have left.

I'd say
you just lost that.

I'd say I lost
that with you
a long time ago.

TAUB: We should start
treatment for AIDS.

KUTNER: We need to be sure.

The antiretrovirals
could fry his heart,
his liver, his kidneys...

I'm willing
to take that chance.
Big of you.

I'm more worried about
the kid he molested.

We should be finding him
and getting him tested.

You don't think
he already got tested?

Maybe he did,
maybe he didn't,

but that's a chance
I'm not willing to take.

Legally, we can't inform
sexual partners about STDs.

This isn't some
middle-aged barfly
who likes it bareback,

this is an innocent kid
who was molested.

You just want to rub
the priest's face in it.
Get him transferred again.

Yeah, heaven forbid
a diddler has job issues.

And you get brought up
on charges.

Lost enough
doctors this week.
Treat him for AIDS.

Found a job.

I didn't know
you were looking.

Eggers at Mercy says
I can start Monday.

Why would you...
House says if I go,
you can come back.

(CHUCKLES) It's been
less than two days.

You give up on me that fast?
You get a job behind my back?

You're acting like
I'm cheating on you.

I said I would handle this.

House knew
you'd be like this.

(SCOFFS)

Wow.

Guess House knows me
better than you do.

Too bad I don't go
both ways.

Good night.

Don't you hate when
they put the mushrooms
underneath the cheese?

Your attendance
is validating
her hypocrisy.

If she invited you to
a ceremonial lynching,
would you go?

It would depend on
what she was serving.
Everyone's a hypocrite.

Why are you
suddenly so obsessed with
Cuddy's particular brand?

I'm just making
conversation.

Would you rather we go back
to talking about mushrooms
and cheese?

You're the hypocrite.
You want to go.

You don't resent this baby,
you want to be a part of it.

Yes, but not until
her 16th birthday
in some states.

This is ridiculous.
You two deserve each other.

If you want to go,
just go and act
like a human being.

Wow. Solid advice.
Except for two things.

I'm acting like
I don't want to go
because I don't want to go,

and I am incapable
of acting like
a human being.

Ryan?

Yeah.
I'm Dr. Chris Taub.
Can we talk?

Yeah. What's wrong?

In private?

Nobody's listening
to us here.

I work at
Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital.

I have some news
about Father Daniel Bresson.

What about him?

We believe he has AIDS.

Okay, so?

Well, given the incident
four years ago,

I think you should be tested,
unless you've already done so.

How sick is he?

Very.

Okay. Well, thanks.

Have you been tested?

Yeah.

And?

And it really isn't
any of your business.

I want my job back.

Love, sacrifice,
deception and now betrayal.

This is better
than a telenovela.

What's going on?

Well, either Foreman is here
as the two of you discussed,

to beg for his job back in
exchange for me dumping you

or nothing.

You're trying
to get me fired?

I'm suggesting you quit
and I stay,

which is exactly what
you suggested last night.

I told Eggers
I didn't want the job.

Find another one.
It took you eight hours
to find that one.

The point is,
why didn't you tell me
you were doing this?

Why are you here
without me?

You're overreacting.
We'll talk about this later.

That's what this is about.
It's about you taking control.

It's about you not being
able to handle me saving
your ass.

And you're not being
controlling right now?

Yeah, who's the
controlling bitch now?

House, shut up.

You never wanted
to take that other job.

You never wanted
to save me.

You wanted to offer
to save me, so you
wouldn't feel guilty.

You knew I'd say no.
That's why you're
so mad right now.

You're an idiot.

Well, either you can
go after her and try
and patch things up,

or you blow her off
and take your old job back.

(SIGHS)

Welcome back.

The AIDS meds
aren't gonna work.

If you'd let us do a test,
we could stop treating you,
or you could stop lying.

(GROANS)

I know the feeling.

BP's climbing.
You feeling okay?

No. I feel flushed.

I'm burning all over.
My chest...

TAUB: It's not a new symptom,
it's just a reaction
to the AIDS meds.

Yeah, he reacted
by getting worse.
Means it's not AIDS.

"So went Satan forth from
the presence of the Lord and
smote Job sore with boils."

You think
it's Hyper IgE Syndrome?

I prefer
the colloquial term,
Job's Syndrome.

Explains the symptoms,
and my quote.

It's the first thing
I checked. IgE levels
are normal.

It could be some
other genetic disorder.

Cerebral microtumors
could explain the blindness
and the hallucinations.

We didn't find
any tumors.

That's why
I didn't say tumors,
I said microtumors.

So your explanation
doesn't depend on us being
major morons, just morons?

We should start
genetic testing.
Takes too long.

So we start treatment.
Treatment is surgery.

We can't open him up
without confirmation.

So your position is
we can't test
and we can't treat?

My position is
you're wrong.

This isn't going to work.

Are you kidding?
I've never felt more alive.

Conflict breeds creativity.
Go run the genetic test.

On it.

So, now you don't think
I have AIDS?

I still think it's AIDS.
On the off chance it isn't,
we're pursuing other avenues.

Ryan.

He's...
He's dying?

We don't know
what's wrong with him.

Can I speak to him?
I don't think
that's a good idea.

Ryan?

Why don't I get you a...
Come on, Ryan.
Now's not a good time.

I'm sorry.

For everything.

I'm sorry.

I know.

I know.

(SIGHS)

(DOOR OPENING)

Any second thoughts
about Cuddy?

No, but please feel
free to blather on.

Raising a child
on her own is scary.

She's just doing what
you do, what everyone does.
Trying to avoid pain.

Religion is not the opiate
of the masses,

religion is the placebo
of the masses.

If you're saying that
she's not a hypocrite...

I'm not.
I'm trying to give you
a rational reason

to overlook her hypocrisy,
so you don't feel like
a hypocrite for going.

Oh. Sorry, continue.

Okay.

Even if an
absolute truth exists,
we can't know all of it.

And you can't condemn her
for recognizing that.

Are you eliminating
symptoms?

We can know everything.

This is medicine,
not metaphysics.

Truth is truth.

It fits.

It doesn't fit.

You can't eliminate
a symptom.

I can if it's not
a symptom.

Well, what is it?

Not a symptom.

You're not going to die.

You have
Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome.

It impairs
your immune system,

makes you susceptible
to all the AIDS stuff
without actually having AIDS.

And you didn't catch it,
you were born with it.

Another gift from God.

You sure?

Genetic tests
should confirm it,

but it explains
all your symptoms.
Toe, chest, eyes, skin.

What about
my hallucination?

Scotch explains that.

That was just
a coincidence?

Coincidences do happen.

But that coincidence is
what brought me to you
in the first place.

You promised
you wouldn't go there.

Einstein said,
"Coincidences are God's way
of remaining anonymous."

A woman in Florida said,
"Look, Jesus is on
my cheese sandwich."

You didn't even want to
take my case. You didn't
even think I was sick.

The fact that I was wrong
is not a proof of God.

I'm just trying to understand
how my life can completely
turn around in a single day.

Don't worry,
your life will go back
to sucking soon enough.

Everything that
happened to you can be
rationally explained.

I know. It's just...

That's a lot
of coincidences.

House was right
about the priest.

Genetic test confirmed
it was Wiskott-Aldrich.

And I would've
discharged him.

Everybody would've
discharged him.

House included.
He only took that
case as a stall.

And yet it was a real case,
and he solved it.

By violating
his own principles,

and ignoring
the admitting symptoms.

Still, he somehow
got away with it.

Saved another life.

You want him
there tonight.

You should tell him.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Cold out there.

At least you have shoes
that cover your toes.

So, it's tonight?

Yeah.

Bad weather for it, huh?

Maybe you'll get lucky.

Maybe your sister
will decide the roads are
too dangerous to drive on.

(CHUCKLES)

Fingers crossed.

Have fun.
