Senator Wright:
And the only thing wrong...

The only thing wrong
with the American dream

is people, too many people,

too many of us telling young people
that the dream is dead.

They told me that when I was growing up
in the slums of Trenton.

And they were wrong.

They told me that when I decided
to run for senator

with only $58
in my savings account.

And they were wrong
and they are still telling me that now,

that I don't have a chance
because I'm black,

because I don't have the right nose,

because I still only have $58
in my savings account.

With your help,
we can keep that dream alive.

And in closing...

Just"

let me say...

Let me say that you should
all donate the legal maximum

to the next president
of the United States.

Are you okay?
Do you need some water?

No. I'm fine, really.

Handsome guy like you,
I bet you get 70% of the women.

Here's hoping.

Of course, it helps
your wife died of cancer.

I'm sorry,
but the sympathy vote's in your pocket.

Yeah, I appreciate your support.

Listen, senator,
my union has a hell of a war chest.

I've always been
strong on the union.

The thing is, you always go on
in your speeches about the workers

in Indonesia, Cambodia, timbuktu.

Because I think we have a...
A moral...

My union members are hurting.

They don't care about moral this
and moral that. Are you all right?

- Senator?
- Hey!

Man 1:
The guys are gonna love that.

Man 2: Everyone, give him some room.
Give him room to breathe!

Back off, please!

Senator, are you all right?

Vogler: The senator's
suffering from nausea,

headache and mental confusion.

Bad Sushi is so
hard to diagnose.

You're being childish.

Look, if his case is
as trivial as you think,

it'll take you three minutes
to diagnose.

Three minutes that I could spend
sitting on the toilet

with the funny pages.

- You're mad at me.
- Nope.

I never liked
Cameron or foreman.

Do you know why I'm forcing you
to fire one of them?

Because you need to prove to me
that you're a team player.

Now, if you did that, you wouldn't
need to go through this exercise.

Fine. I'll hold the senator's hair
while he upchucks.

Oh, and by the way,

I need you to give a speech
at the national cardiology conference

next week.

I don't do speeches. I'm shy.

Eastbrook pharmaceuticals
has developed a new ace inhibitor.

I would like you
to extol the virtues

of this breakthrough medication.

Eastbrook pharmaceuticals?

Wait a second,
don't I own that company?

Oh, no, that's right. You do.

Viopril is a significant improvement
over the old version.

All there in the study.

Well, I know its price tag
is significantly improved.

You can either give one 10-minute talk
and one 3-minute diagnosis,

or you can fire one of your pets.

My understanding was that you believed
in rationality above all else.

Viopril.

Senator Wright: I appreciate your
keeping the media away.

Foreman: We're keeping
your staff away as well.

- Take it easy now.
- I'm in the middle of a campaign.

The faster we can get you better,
the faster you can get out of here.

Anyone else
at the fundraiser get sick?

I don't think so.
And I don't think that's it.

I mean, I've been under
the weather for weeks.

You know, lots of traveling. I'm
supposed to be in the Sudan next week.

0h!

Helps me concentrate.
Even better than drugs.

Open your mouth, please.

That's quite a scar.

When I was six, I fell off the swing
and bit my tongue.

Couldn't talk right
for the longest time.

Lots of teasing.

You know, it just made me fight harder,
speak up for those who can't.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Tongues heal too fast.

Your political consultants
have written you a nice story.

In a tight race, the lispers alone
could put you over the top.

You a republican,
or you just hate all politicians?

I just find being forced
to sit through drivel annoying.

You find sincerity annoying?

You're a black kid
from the ghetto

who made it to Yale law
and the United States senate.

That's a sufficiently
mythical story.

You don't need to lie
about your tongue.

Must've missed it.

What's wrong?

What is it?

It's not the food.
It's your brain.

Get an mri and
a lumbar puncture.

Cancel your travel plans.

The senator's lp
showed no sign of infection,

and the mri looks fairly clean.

I guess we can tell him
he's fairly healthy and can go home.

Well, there is
something in broca's area,

- but it's small, low intensity.
- Most likely just background noise.

Care to bet your job on that?

What was that?

What was what?

You got annoyed.

That was clearly
an annoyed face.

I get annoyed by glib remarks
about our futures.

But last week you
didn't get annoyed.

You made poopie in your pants.
It's weird.

It's almost like now you know
you have nothing to worry about.

Chase has nothing
to worry about?

House: None of you has
anything to worry about.

What happened?

Vogler saw the error of his ways
and repented.

The lesion could be nothing.

Also, it could be a brain tumor
or an infection.

There's only one way
to find out which.

You want to cut into his brain?

Dangerous, I know.

Especially since he's a politician
and his brain's all twisted.

But I weighed that against the risk
of him stroking out before lunch.

Call surgery. Get it scheduled.

You're not pregnant.

Well, I told you that.

But there's got to be some
other reason I'm still spotting.

Sure. You were pregnant.

Based on your hormone levels,
you've had a miscarriage.

I haven't even been on a date.

Right.

And since it's physically
impossible to have sex

without someone
buying you dinner...

I haven't had sex
since I split up with my husband.

That was almost a year ago.

Fine. Have it your way.
Immaculate conception.

What do I do?

Well, it's obvious.

Start a religion.

In my office.

Afternoon delight.

She just loves the hard wood.

You're not doing a brain biopsy
based on a spot on an mri.

Where'd you get that?

Not on a United States senator.

Oh, just so I'm clear,

a janitor would be okay?
Do you have a list?

A brain biopsy can cause
permanent neurological damage.

Whereas tumors are
really good for brains.

Make them grow big and strong.

- It's my call.
- No, it's not.

So you're pulling
rank on patient care?

It's not my call either.

It's up to you.

House: Either it's a tumor
or it's an infection

that the lumbar puncture
didn't pick up.

Either way, unless we treat it
immediately, it could kill you.

Or it could be nothing. Reading
brain mris is not an exact science.

Well, what caused my symptoms?

Wow! Excellent question.

Many doctors wouldn't
have gone there.

It could be
a transient ischemic attack.

You could make the argument for watching
carefully for the time being.

But you'd only
make that argument

if you were an administrator
covering your ass.

- That's absurd and insulting.
- Insulting, yes.

What would the voters think?

If they find out
I've had a brain biopsy?

This could
leave you brain damaged,

and you're worried
about Nascar dads?

It's not a brain tumor.

It's not
a bacterial infection either.

So you biopsied his brain
for nothing?

If that were true,
would Dr. Wilson's mouth

be contorted into
that ugly shape?

It's toxoplasmosis.

You sure?

Which means the great black hope
has full-blown aids.

They're gonna
love that in dubuque.

Toxoplasmosis is a fairly
common fungus you can get

from eating under-cooked meat
or touching cat feces.

In rare cases, the fungi
travel up the bloodstream

and latch onto the brain,
causing a lesion or inflammation.

So, what's the prognosis?

Toxo usually
responds to treatment,

but it only causes
a lesion in your brain

if your immune system
is extremely weak to begin with.

Senator,
I'm afraid you have aids.

- As I'm sure...
- No!

As I'm sure you know,
people with HIV can live a long time.

What else could do this to me?

Theoretically, certain cancers.

If you have toxo in your brain,
you have aids.

I do not have aids.

I don't shoot up drugs.

I don't sleep with...

This is very bad news.
I get that and I sympathize.

But we gotta speed through
the denial phase

because you need antiretrovirals
and you need them fast.

You haven't even
tested me for HIV!

We will.

But the toxo drugs
are gonna piss off your fungi.

And when fungi get pissed...

I am not going
to take the pills.

You're afraid
word will leak out.

Trust me. You're not gonna
be president either way.

They don't call it the white house
because of the paint job.

Here's what you're gonna do.

You're gonna give me the drugs
for the toxo only.

You're going to test me for HIV
under a false name.

You are going to
test me for cancer

and anything else that could have
done this to me.

If I have cancer,
I will deal with it.

But I do not have aids.

"Eastbrook pharmaceuticals
are pleased to announce

that Dr. Gregory house
will present

the latest research on our exciting
new ace inhibitor."

You're making that up.
That's vogler's company.

Press release.

"During an address at the north
American cardiology conference."

House never gives speeches.

But when I really
believe in something...

Gosh dang it, I got a chance
to make a difference here.

You made a deal with vogler?

It's all the rage.
Everybody's doing it.

So, what's the deal?

You get to keep all of us
if you flog his products?

One speech. No biggie.

Foreman's doing a bone marrow biopsy
to check for cancer.

Cancer? The senator's got aids.

Cancer sounds better
in a press release.

I need you guys to rush
the Elisa test for HIV.

Thank you.

For the speech.

When I said "rush",
I meant, you know, fast.

"Stat's" the word
you doctors use, right?

- I know it's hard for you.
- Double stat?

Foreman:
This may sting a little.

- Sorry.
- It wasn't the shot.

It's... my head's killing me.

You know, senator,
we don't have to do this now.

We can hold off
till your HIV test comes back.

Because you figure
it's gonna come back positive.

In my experience...

Patients lie,

politicians lie more,
and black politicians...

I don't think black politicians
lie more than white politicians.

We lie less.

You figure we're
morally superior?

I've got my theories.

No, we just can't
get away with it.

No one's gonna give us
the benefit of the doubt.

No one's gonna cut
us a second chance.

And when it happens,
it's not just a bad politician.

It's a bad role model.

It's a dis...

Discredit to the race.

You ready?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Take a deep breath.

Dr. House, I just wanted...

You're welcome, again.

I want you to know how much...

Got it. You're grateful.

Apparently you seem to think
it will mean a lot to me to know that.

Do you know why
people pray to god?

Ithoughtyou
didn't believe in god.

Idont.

Well, then you better be making
a very good point.

Do you think they pray to him
and praise him

because they want him
to know how great he is?

God already knows that.

Are you comparing me to god?

I mean, that's great, but just so you
know, I've never made a tree.

I thank you because
it means something to me

to be grateful
for what I receive.

You are the most naive
atheist I've ever met.

Dr. House,
you have a patient in room 1.

Thank god.

People pray so that god won't
crush them like bugs.

I'm not gonna crush you.

Woman: Petechial bruising?
I don't know if I pronounced that right.

Gosh, the Internet is
such a wonderful tool.

- It could be leukemia.
- Definitely possible.

The more likely
diagnosis is hickey.

Well, it can't be a hickey.

Why is everybody so ashamed
of sex all of a sudden?

I'm not having sex.

I've barely even thought
about sex since my marriage.

I say you're having sex,
you say you're not.

Either you're lying
or I'm wrong.

Or there's some middle ground.

You mean, like, oral?

I mean, you're having sex
without knowing it.

I'm testing you for booze,
drugs and ghb.

I don't drink... what's ghb?

The date-rape drug.

House: It's positive.

Your t cell count is eight,

which means there's a good chance
you'll die.

I'm telling you this because
we need to contact your sexual partners.

I've only had two girlfriends.
Two.

After my wife died.

I used condoms.

You know the chances
of you getting HIV

from heterosexual
sex with a condom?

Yes.

Someday there will
be a black president.

Someday there will
be a gay president.

Maybe there'll even be a gay,
black president.

But one combination I do not see
happening is gay, black and dead.

You need to stop lying to me.

It must be miserable,

always assuming
the worst in people.

Cut the crap. You're dying.

And you're clever,
you're witty and you are a coward.

You're scared of taking chances.

I take chances all the time.

It's one of my worst qualities.

On people?

Wanting to believe the best
about people doesn't make it true.

Being afraid to believe it
doesn't make it false.

Well, that's very moving.
It's a shame I don't vote.

No, no, no. This is who I am.

I believe in people.

I'm not hiply cynical,
and I don't make easy, snide remarks.

I would rather think
that people are good

and be disappointed
once and again.

I need to draw some more blood.

Nurse!

The antiretrovirals
aren't working.

That's not surprising.

He's just gonna keep getting worse.
You realize that, right?

Why are you spying on my case?

Why are you giving
that speech next week?

We're both just doing
what we have to do.

You don't see
a problem with that?

Checking in on a patient?

Yeah, wow. How do I look
myself in the mirror?

You're not being asked to perpetrate
a fraud on the American people.

It's a 10-minute speech.

That I've been ordered to give.

- Vogler's drug works.
- Don't care.

Why do you have to make
everything so dramatic?

'Cause I'm a very
high-strung little lap dog.

Uh-uh. No pills.

What's going on?

The antiretrovirals
aren't working.

Why not?

Because you don't have aids.

The first test was
a false positive.

Happens one time in every 5,000.

You ran a second test?

Yeah.

Yeah.

You're still dying.

The only difference is,
now we don't know why.

He's continuing to lose control
of the muscles on his right side.

His brain is getting foggier and his
t cells are still in single digits.

- Why are we doing this here?
- So cuddy can't find us.

Unless we figure out
the underlying disease,

this guy's lied to
his last constituent.

False negative
on the pcr aids test?

Ran it twice.

Immunoglobulin deficiency?

No history of
respiratory problems.

Idiopathic t cell deficiency.

"Idiopathic" from the Latin
meaning "we're idiots"

'cause we can't figure
out what's causing it.

- Give him a whole body scan.
- You hate whole body scans.

Because they're useless.

Could probably scan
every one of us

and find five different doodads
that look like cancer.

But when you're fourth down
and a hundred to go in the snow,

you don't call a running play
up the middle, unless you're the jets.

I hate sports metaphors.

Why did you order
the second aids test?

Standard procedure.

Oh, well, that's you,
Mr. Standard procedure.

You suspected the first test
was a false positive?

I knew he was going to Africa,

and I figured he was vaccinated
for hep a and b.

That could cause
a false positive.

Yeah, but you knew that
before you ordered the first test.

- What changed?
- I should have ordered both.

You were sure he had aids.

Then you talked to him,
then you had doubts.

What did he say?

He said he had not engaged
in any risky behavior.

- And you believed him.
- He didn't have any reason to lie.

Everybody lies,
except politicians?

House, I believe
you're a romantic.

You didn't just believe him,
you believed in him.

Do you want to come over tonight
and watch old movies and cry?

Dr. Cameron's getting to you.

Well, I guess you can't be
around that much niceness

and not get any on you.

Is that why you haven't
put the moves on her?

What makes you think
I haven't put the moves on her?

Boy! You're in trouble.

You have restored my faith
in the human race.

- You're lying.
- No. I'm not lying.

Just got your results back.
No ghb, no nothing.

It means you're having sex
and you're lying about it.

No. And I have a new symptom.

I have a rash on my butt.

Do you wanna... yeah.

What is it?

- It's a carpet burn.
- No. It can't be.

Doctor, I love sex.

I miss it. I haven't had
any in over a year.

Well, you managed
to keep this appointment,

so you have no
short-term memory problem.

Multiple personalities?

Do you find yourself
losing chunks of time?

Do you wake up and you don't
remember falling asleep?

No. I just wake up
really exhausted.

- Something upsetting you?
- No.

My ex lives
in the apartment downstairs.

He's always calling me,

always wanting to
get back together,

complaining about mixed signals.

"Get out of my life."
How much clearer can you get?

We have a sleep lab
in the basement.

If nothing else, it will get you
away from your ex for a night.

Slightly enlarged lymph node
in his left armpit.

How slightly?

Wilson: Quarter mil.

- Lymphoma?
- Sure.

Or he's had a cold
in the last six months.

What, you got her on speed dial?

I just follow
the scent of arrogance.

Chase: Another slightly
enlarged node over here.

Two more in his neck
and one in his groin.

And there's a cyst in his liver.

Cameron: It looks complex.
Central necrosis?

House:
Spontaneous bleeding. It's benign.

I was rooting for
a really cool tumor.

Instead, we're stuck
with this crap.

Doesn't matter. Once you find them,
you gotta check them.

Knock yourselves out.

I just saw senator Wright.
He looks like hell.

That Sushi must've been
a lot worse than you thought.

Mr. Vogler, would you like
a free whole body scan?

A man of your stature
should get himself checked

at least three times a year.

Here's a few key points
I want you to cover during your speech.

House: Fourteen pages.

The audience will be comatose
by paragraph two.

Throw in a joke.

Dr. Chase, we need to talk.

House:
How do you see this ending?

What ending?

I can't fire you,
so you have no reason to fear me,

and, therefore,
no reason to lie to me.

You told cuddy where I was.

You told vogler
what I was doing.

- Yeah.
- So how can I work with you?

Well, you don't have a choice.

Foreman:
This might hurt a little.

Lie to me.

Okay. It'll feel
like a gentle massage.

House is a lousy teacher.

You can't lie for beans.

Have you ever told
any really big ones?

I might be messed up,
but I'm not that out of it.

Foreman: Strap his arm down.

Am I going to be okay?

I hope so.

- I am selling my soul.
- Just a little piece.

And you are getting
something in return.

I said I was selling it,
I didn't say I was giving it away.

That would be
immoral and stupid.

All they've done
is add an antacid.

- Does it work?
- Well, it's not the point.

Of course it's the point.
He's not asking you to lie.

He's not asking you
to do something illegal.

He's not asking me
to do anything.

He's not ordering you.

He gave you a choice.
You chose your staff.

I know this isn't easy for you.
You'll suffer.

Vicodin sales in Jersey
will triple.

But you are doing a good thing.

Only you could feel like crap
about doing something good.

Foreman: Kidney and liver
cysts are both benign,

and the lymph nodes
all came back clean.

His left armpit node
has antibodies for cd11.

Well, not enough to
indicate lymphoma.

We never tested for
hairy cell leukemia.

Wilson:
No, but we would have picked it up

somewhere else
besides one lymph node.

And his spleen isn't enlarged.

Size isn't everything.

The spleen is the mother lode
for hairy cells.

- Let's cut it open.
- You can't biopsy his spleen.

- It'll bleed like stink.
- In the senator's condition,

a spleen biopsy could easily
cause sepsis and kill him.

Why do you do this to me?

Now if! Kill him,
I can't tell the judge

I had no idea of
the risks involved.

Foreman: His brain is
turning into mush,

and he's at risk for more infections.
We have to do it.

See? That'll sound
much better in court.

Okay.
Go tell our human pincushion

we'll be sticking him
one more time.

House: Cuddy.

- Don't you hate doing this?
- Yeah.

What's up?

You like me.

Why?

That's kind of a sad question.

I'm just trying to figure out
what makes you tick.

I am not warm and fuzzy,

and you are basically
a stuffed animal made by grandma.

I don't think
that's why you're asking.

I think this is
because of the speech.

God, don't try
and pick me apart.

Then why are you asking?
What do you want to hear?

Hey, senator.

We need to do one more biopsy
on your spleen.

I'll have to sign lefty.
My fingers aren't working.

Foreman:
Have you been coughing a lot?

- Does it hurt?
- It's like I can't get air.

Is it from the toxo?

No. This... this is new.

You don't need to sign.
We can't do the biopsy.

Foreman: The senator's breathing
is severely impaired.

His 02 sat levels are at 89.

His silver stain indicates
pneumocystis carinii pneumonia.

Another killer fungus.
Consistent with hairy cell leukemia.

Foreman: But we can't biopsy
his spleen. Respiratory distress.

His platelets are 20 and dropping.
His blood won't clot worth a damn.

Cameron: There's gotta be
another way to diagnose hairy cell.

No. His bone marrow's indeterminate.
Spleen biopsy's the only way to go.

You know, when the inuit go fishing,
they don't look for fish.

Why, Dr. House?

They look for the blue heron
because there's no way to see the fish.

But if there's fish,
there's gonna be birds fishing.

Now, if he's got hairy cell, what else
should we see circling overhead?

He should have all
sorts of weird viruses.

Htlv and atlv.

We can test for them.
Run the titers.

House: These were your
brain waves at 2:45 am.

Now, here it comes. There's an abrupt
jump from slow-wave sleep.

This indicates
partial sleep arousal.

Most common type is somnambulism.
Sleepwalking.

That would explain
why I'm so tired when I wake up.

Yes. And also why
you were pregnant.

And the hickeys.
And the carpet burn.

I had sex in my sleep?

Sexsomnia is
a documented disorder.

You said your ex
lives downstairs.

I'll kill him.

Okay. But he probably
didn't know that you were asleep.

Sexsomniacs can
act pretty normal.

I'm gonna write you a prescription
for a low-dose antidepressant.

It'll let you sleep better.

If you wanna save
yourself the $15 co-pay,

you could have sex
while you're awake.

He's my ex. I...

You live in the same building.

You haven't had sex
with anyone else for a year.

You sleepwalk
right into his arms.

Call me crazy,
but I'm sensing unresolved issues.

Negative for htlv 1 and 2.

And negative for atlv
and everything else.

It's not hairy cell.

Hey. You really
gonna give that speech?

- You got an opinion, too?
- I'm a little surprised.

Frankly, I thought
you were too much

of a self-absorbed ass
to do this for us.

You're welcome.

He's positive for Epstein-barr.

So what? It doesn't
point to hairy cell.

It's irrelevant.

You didn't fall off the swings
when you were eight.

- Six.
- Ever.

- Give that back.
- We have to talk.

You had an epileptic seizure.
That's how you bit your tongue.

I haven't had
a seizure since I...

What medication did you take?

No seizure since I was six.

No drugs since I was 10.

Yeah, that's it.

Don't worry about
what the question is.

Don't worry that you're
starting to feel dizzy.

Just stay on message.

My mother used to call...
Call it...

"Funny" something.

- Phenytoin?
- Yes!

Okay, okay. You're okay.

It's okay.

Everybody lies.

House: Senator Gary h. Wright
of New Jersey had childhood epilepsy.

He took phenytoin. That drug,
with the Epstein-barr virus,

is associated with common variable
immunodeficiency disease.

T cells down, b cells down.

Keeps you from
forming enough antibodies.

See, the antibodies are basically
your defensive line.

And your brain is
like the quarterback.

And then the fungi are like blitzing
linebackers plunging up the middle.

Your lungs are like...

Okay, you got two quarterbacks.

Chase: Cvid?

That's a type of immunoglobulin
deficiency. I said that.

Yeah, well, it was a stupid idea
when you said it.

Then he got
the respiratory problem

and he tested
positive for Epstein-barr.

That's pretty much
a childhood disease.

That's another reason why chase's
suggestion was idiotic.

He got it when he was a kid.
Didn't get any symptoms until now.

It happens.

It gets triggered by stress,
like public speaking.

So you're basing your diagnosis
on a virus that's relatively common

and a drug he took 30 years ago.

Start the senator
on iv immunoglobulin, stat.

If he gets better, I'm right.
If he dies, you're right.

Dr. House?

- You faked that.
- No.

House: Say "antiretroviral".

Antiretroviral.

Now, say it three times fast.

We just got back
your latest blood results.

Your white cells are up.
Your t cells are back over a hundred.

Well, that's...
That's good, right?

In a week? That's terrific.

You'll need medication
for the rest of your life,

but other than that,
you're fine.

Am I well enough
to run for president?

Why not run for pope
while you're at it?

Foreman: Oh, come on.

Kennedy had Addison's.
Fdr had polio.

Two of the best presidents
in the last hundred years.

If they were running today,
they wouldn't stand a chance.

So you figure you'd be surgeon general
if you didn't have the limp?

No. There's things I can't do.

And like you said,
I have to live with reality.

Well, then I'm running.

Good for you.

Now, don't get excited.

He's right. I... I won't win.

Then why run?

Oh, I see. Your point being,

the only way to make a difference
is to win every fight.

But, hey, why listen to me?

I own the company. I'm certainly
not to be trusted, right?

Dr. Greg house,
on the other hand,

has a reputation for integrity,
among other things.

Ladies and gentlemen,
Dr. Greg house.

"Eastbrook pharrnaceuticals'
commitment to research excellence

is exemplified by
their new ace inhibitor,

a breakthrough medical approach

that will protect millions
from heart disease."

That's not a speech.

I thought it was pithy.

You got enough for
a press release anyhow.

Foreman or Cameron.

A few things
I forgot to mention.

Ed vogler is
a brilliant businessman,

a brilliantjudge of people,
and a man who has never lost a fight.

You know how I know
that the new ace inhibitor is good?

'Cause the old one was good.

The new one is really the same,
just more expensive.

A lot more expensive.

You see, that's another example
of Ed's brilliance.

Whenever one of his drugs
is about to lose its patent,

he has his boys and girls alter it just
a tiny bit, patent it all over again,

making not just
a pointless new pill,

but millions and millions of dollars.

Which is good for everybody,
right?

Except the patients.
But who cares?

They're just so damn sick.

God obviously never
liked them anyway.

From all the healthy
people in the room,

let's have a big
round of applause for ed vogler.

I threw in a joke.

I'm sorry.

I should've taken
an extra couple of Vicodin

and just held my nose.

I'm guessing you did take
a couple extra Vicodin.

True.

You don't need to worry
about firing anyone.

I'm leaving.

Why?

Is this another noble,
self-sacrificing gesture?

Are you trying to
protect foreman?

So this is just,
"don't fire me. I quit"?

I'm protecting myself.

You asked me why I like you.

You're abrasive and rude.

But I figured, everything you do,
you do it to help people.

But I was wrong.

You do it because it's right.

There are only two ways
that I can deal with things.

One is in my control.

That's to leave.

Goodbye, house.
